Charles slipped into the underground tunnels dug out by the Desert Goblins while still cloaked in invisibility.
He followed the winding passage deeper and deeper, quickly closing in on the area where the Desert Goblin Queen resided.
Along the way, he brushed past countless Desert Goblins.
Some of them had exceptionally keen senses of smell and seemed to catch a faint trace of Charles's scent.
However, because Charles had made thorough preparations, they merely assumed their noses were playing tricks on them.
After a quarter of an hour, Charles finally reached the very end of the Desert Goblins' underground tunnel.
All that remained was to push open the dilapidated gate ahead, and he would step directly into the chamber of the Desert Goblin Queen.
He crept forward on silent feet, hoping to slip inside without being detected.
But just as he was about to cross the threshold, a familiar laugh echoed from within.
It was the laugh of the Desert Goblin Queen.
