Leading the group was one of the three legends of the Goblin Tribe, the Grand Sage Azeba.


    "Grand Sage, this is the relic discovered by our men!"


    Among the goblin cavalry, a particularly tall middle-aged goblin knight looked at the metal gate and respectfully said to an elderly goblin behind him.


    The elderly goblin wore a crown made of the bones of an unknown creature and held a jade-like staff crafted from a spirit tree. Upon hearing the knight''s words, his emerald-green eyes flickered with blue and white light, as if some mysterious force was gathering within him.


    After a while, he snapped back from his mysterious state.


    To the astonishment of the goblin knights, the elderly goblin leapt from his wolf mount and knelt before the metal gate, shouting in a fervor, "Blessings upon our tribe! Blessings upon our tribe! The prophecy reveals that within, there is something that will bring us glory and strength!"


    "Oh! It''s more than just glory and strength. With what''s inside, we goblins will replace the Titans and the Ancient Dragons and become the rulers of all of Ferland!"


    After his frenzy, he stood up and walked over to the middle-aged goblin knight, calmly issuing orders:


    "Azil, I command you to return to the Goblin King''s court as swiftly as possible, and inform King Amigul. Tell him to send our finest legion and most skilled craftsmen here immediately! And tell him, this is more important than anything we''ve ever discussed before."


    "Yes! Grand Sage, I will make sure the message reaches the King!"


    The middle-aged goblin knight replied solemnly, slapping his chest.


    One Month Later.


    A goblin army of nearly ten thousand had arrived at the site.Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.


    Three Months Later.


    Through some unknown means, the goblins finally managed to open the metal door.


    Several Years Later.


    The various races of Ferland suddenly noticed something remarkable: among the goblins, new beings appeared—creatures resembling Titans.


    These creatures stood only about two meters tall, had rather average physiques, and emitted no extraordinary energy, but they were closely guarded by the goblin tribe.


    They called themselves the Humans.


    In the following months, the goblins began to create strange and powerful objects, some of which even posed a threat to the remaining Titans and Dragons.


    East Coast, Mount Celestia.


    Inside the largest structure on the mountaintop, a magnificent marble building, Jano sat at the head of the hall, surrounded by silence. Since the establishment of the Winged Tribe, this palace, constructed of marble, had become their spiritual symbol. The Winged Tribe no longer resembled the isolated Hawkmen people they once were; now, they pursued the perfect blend of beauty and strength, striving for perfection in all things.


    Beside Jano, two young members of the Winged Tribe stood—one male, one female, both poised and elegant. The male Winged person stepped forward, respectfully reporting:


    "Great Leader, we have confirmed that both the Titan King and the Ancient Dragon Emperor have been gravely wounded in their final battle. Most of the Titans and Dragons are dead, and those who remain are severely injured. The subordinate races that once served them are now showing signs of rebellion and division."


    He paused for a moment, glancing at Jano, then asked, "Given this, do we still need to continue our isolation strategy?"


    The female Winged person also spoke up: "More importantly, it seems the Goblins have been secretly making contact with other races."


    Upon hearing this, Jano nodded slightly and asked, "What about the Hawkmen King''s court?"


    "The Hawkmen King was severely injured in the final battle, but he remains loyal to the Thunder Titan. Recently, they have rejected the Goblin emissaries."


    Jano pondered for a moment before speaking: "I see. The Goblins have rebellious intentions. However, for us, both the Titan and the Hawkmen King''s court are enemies."


    The blood feud between Jano and the Hawkmen King''s court had already run deep. As for the Titans, Jano didn''t believe that after all he had done—using Titan corpses for a century—they would be on friendly terms with the Winged Tribe.


    After a brief silence, Jano made a decision: "The war between the Goblins and the Titans won''t break out soon. I''ve decided to lift our isolation strategy. We will send our warriors across Ferland, into the skies and lands, and show everyone that Ferland is not only home to the Hawkmen people but also to the powerful Winged Tribe of the East Coast!"


    He said with confidence and resolve, "I believe, in the near future, the Goblins'' emissaries will come to Mount Celestia!"
