"Why not have a chat? You can't hide forever."
That night, the brilliant moonlight made the Water Sli Lake look like a fairyland.
The water's surface, like a mirror, emitted a blue glow.
Standing on the shore, Li ng gazed at the moonlit lake scene before him.
The grill on the lakeside had already gone out.
This indicated that the mithril inner armor was completed.
The goblins in the forest were sound asleep.
Tomorrow, the caravan would set off back to the throne tribe.
Since "Heart Speech" advanced to "Word Spirit,"
The range of beings he could communicate with ntally was no longer limited to just intelligent creatures.
Even an ant, a bug, or a bird could communicate.
Even trees could engage in so mysterious exchanges.
At this mont, a semi-transparent sli appeared on the calm water surface.
A second, then a third followed closely.
"Goblin, I hate you!"
"I hate you too!"
"We all hate you!"
"Hate you!"
"Hate you!"
The lake was quiet, and the Water Slis couldn't make any sound.
But Li ng could hear their voices.
The chattering voices echoed in his mind.
"Why do you hate ?"
Li ng sat down by the water.
"You threw stones at us!"
"Yes, you threw stones at us!"
"And you tossed things into our ho."
"Yes, those glowing stones are so annoying."
"Bad guy, goblins are bad guys!"
"Fire, they started a fire!"
"There's fire, there's fire, bad guy!"
"Bad guy, bad guy!"
More and more Water Slis appeared on the water's surface.
Soon, the water was densely covered with Water Slis.
The voices in his mind beca more chaotic.
"Why not beco my little followers, and I won't bother you!"
Li ng grinned, tempting the Water Slis.
"Goblin boss?"
"No, I don't want a goblin boss!"
"No, I don't want to make a contract with a goblin."
" neither, goblins are too ugly."
"Exactly, exactly!"
Sitting by the water, Li ng's mouth twitched.
Though goblins were indeed ugly,
His appearance was considered handso among goblins.
These Water Slis had no taste at all.
Where did they get the confidence to criticize others?
They were just blobs of sticky, ugly goo themselves.
"So, there's no room for negotiation?"
Li ng grinned nacingly, glaring at the slis in the lake.
"Goblins are scary!"
"Scary, scary!"
The chattering of the Water Slis erupted again.
"By the way, what does making a contract an?"
Li ng heard so Water Slis talking about contracts.
"Goblins are so dumb, they don't even know that."
"Exactly, that's why I hate goblins, they're so dumb."
"Should we tell it?"
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
A Water Sli approached Li ng.
"We Slis are a sub-species of elves, naturally able to form life-sharing contracts with other creatures. Slis provide magic and elental magic to the host, while the host shares life with the sli."
Provide magic and elental magic?
Li ng's eyes lit up, his heart racing.
His gaze on the Water Slis grew greedy.
Magic was a good thing, and magic power even more so.
"Sharing life? Does that an you consu the host's life force?"
Life-sharing probably didn't an living and dying together.
"Yes, yes, the lifecycle of slis is very short, and they need a host to extend their lifespan."
The Water Sli's answer was just as Li ng expected.
Li ng grinned, flexing his strong arm.
"Make a contract with , I'm very strong."
Although goblins weren't a long-lived race, their lifespan wasn't short either.
A regular goblin's lifespan was about 50 years.
If they could consu the flesh of high-level magical beasts, they could extend their lifespan.
Since goblins were so weak,
There were almost no goblins who died of old age.
A Big Goblin's lifespan was around a hundred years.
A Goblin Soldier's lifespan was about 150 years.
A Goblin Warrior's lifespan was about 200 years.
A Goblin Leader's lifespan was about 300 years.
The lifespan of a Goblin King was unknown.
Because no Goblin King had ever died of old age.
Goblin Kings all died unnatural deaths.
"Should we make a contract with it?"
"It's so small, it must be weak."
"No, I don't want it, it's too weak."
"Exactly, exactly, I don't want it!"
Hearing the Water Slis disdain him for being too weak,
Li ng stood up and took off his clothes.
"What is it doing?"
"We're slis, after all!"
"Aren't goblins just that kind of creature?"
"Exactly, exactly!"
"It can't do much, can it?"
"Our bodies are soft, perverts love that."
"No, I don't want it!"
"The goblin is going crazy, run away!"
Li ng's act of undressing scared the Water Slis away.
The exposed Water Slis quickly rged back into the water.
The Water Slis' criticism made Li ng roll his eyes.
These little things were really good at wild imagination.
"Don't run, I told you, I'm very strong."
Throwing away his large shorts, Li ng grinned.
His green-skinned body suddenly swelled and twisted.
Accompanied by the sound of bones grinding.
In the blink of an eye, the originally two-ter-tall Li ng turned into a five-ter-tall giant.
"How about it, I'm strong, right!"
Li ng did so stretching exercises by the water.
The bulging muscles and robust body left the Water Slis in awe.
There was movent on the water again.
One by one, Water Slis appeared again.
"It's really strong!"
"Yes, very strong, with abundant life force!"
A sli approached the shore.
"Goblin, I'll make a contract with you!"
Li ng's true form attracted so Water Slis.
Li ng sat cross-legged by the water.
"How do we make a contract?"
The round Water Sli hopped onto the shore.
Its soft, elastic body was like jelly.
The Water Sli on the shore was quite large.
About half a ter in diater.
The Water Sli in front of Li ng squeezed out a blue crystal from its body.
[Water Sli Contract Source Crystal]
[Magic Power: 3132]
"Goblin, eat it!"
Li ng plucked the Water Sli's contract source crystal with his fingers.
When the source crystal left the body, the Water Sli's magic attribute changed.
From 6264 to 3132.
In other words, the Water Sli gave half of its magic power to him.
The Water Sli source crystal was small.
About the size of half a human fist.
"Will eating this thing cause any problems?"
Although he thought this,
Li ng's body was honest.
He took the source crystal and put it in his mouth.
