Everyone looked at the goblin in front of them with a look of surprise on their faces, and even the experienced elders, including the patriarch Gu Ang, were speechless with wide eyes.

The blue-gray goblin looked at the surprised crowd, smiled and walked up to Gu Ang and said to him, "Hello, dwarven patriarch, my name is Vizni, you don't need to be surprised by my existence, this is just the inevitable result of the evolution of the species. ”

Gu Ang looked at the goblin named Vizni, and after recovering his surprise, he calmed down and looked at it and asked, "You are the one who conspired with Tanmon to invade our dwarven village?"

"Invasion, hahaha...... You can't say that," Vizni laughed twice, "We goblins have only wanted to reclaim the territory that belongs to us for a long time, are the dwarves born to be the natives of this land?

The dwarves in the room were immediately speechless when they heard this. That's right, the ancestors of the dwarves did expel the creatures living in this area in order to seize the living space when they first arrived, including the goblins that live here.

"So, you're not in a position to complain about the rude, brutal, and even bloody things we goblins have done to you, have you? Didn't your ancestors do the same to our ancestors more than a thousand years ago?" said Bidzni, glancing at the room.

At this time, Gu Ang looked at Bizni and said: "However, since we dwarves settled down, we have never taken the initiative to trouble your goblins, all we want is to have a land where we can live in peace, we have no intention of killing, we just want to continue our race." ”

"But didn't you massacre our goblins at that time? we live here in peace, and you suddenly break in to seize our territory, usurp our resources, and drive us like wild beasts, should we suffer from this? If we goblins hadn't snatched a holy staff from you, I'm afraid we would have been wiped out by you, right?" asked Vizni, staring at Gu Ang.

His words left Gu Ang speechless, it is true that the dwarves committed many killings when they came here, but those were all grievances from a thousand years ago. In order to survive on the mainland, the dwarven race has given up their lives in human society, and now they are going to fall into the situation of extinction because of their past grudges?

Vizni looked at the silent Gu Ang and continued, "Did you know? It takes hundreds of years for a goblin to be born in a goblin with a talent for language. As a goblin born once in hundreds of years, I walked out of the forest alone to learn the language of humans and how they behaved in order to help my people regain their territory. I've also learned a little bit about the history of your dwarf race, and you're the same expelled race as we are, am I right?"

Gu Ang stared at Vizni in silence, and Vizni also looked at him, and he laughed twice before saying, "I can understand the pain of you dwarves, you have been persecuted by outsiders and lost your territory, and in the end you can only hide in this big forest, and you only want to continue your race. We also have something in common on this point, so why can't we put aside the past grievances and look forward to the future together?"

"What do you mean by that?" asked Gu Ang with a solemn expression.

After laughing twice in his shrill voice, Vizni said, "Patriarch Guang, on behalf of the great Goblin King Bulug, I extend my most sincere invitation to you, as long as you agree to open the Hidden Treasure Cellar, lift the seal of the Eighteen Holy Warriors, and appoint Tanmon as the new Dwarven Patriarch, then we will not only not harm you dwarves, but will also do our best to help you get out of the forest and return to normal life." ”

"Hmph...... Hahahaha......" Gu Ang suddenly laughed, he raised his head and laughed loudly, and everyone looked at him in surprise.

After laughing, Gu Ang looked at the Vizni standing in front of him and said: "One thing you have to make clear, the decline of the dwarven race originates from their own greed and disrespect for the gods, we are a 'cursed' race, and it is because of the curse that we have lost the ability to continue to survive in human society. Otherwise, do you think that with our forging skills, we can still be persecuted and hide in this big forest to grab territory with you goblins? And then again, it's just you? just because you goblins have a few amazing weapons to help us return to human society? It's a joke, hahaha...... You goblins are really ...... I can't do it!"

Listening to Gu Ang's words, Vizni's originally confident expression gradually turned gloomy, and then turned to anger. Just when everyone thought it was going to be angry, Bidzni burst out laughing, and its shrill laughter was very ugly in the storeroom.

"There's really no way...... Pitzni glanced at Gu Ang, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and turned to Tanmon and said, "Just follow your method." ”

"Hmph...... I would have done what I said, and I would have talked nonsense with them and wasted my saliva. Tanmeng looked at Gu Ang and sneered.

"Then let's let this kind-hearted patriarch think about it, and every hour we kill a dwarf, starting with a child, tsk...... I remember the youngest ones are still feeding, aren't they? Sorry......" Bidzni said as he walked out of the storeroom.

Gu Ang looked at Tammon and Bizni with a gloomy face, and the dwarves around him were constantly shouting and cursing.

"You bastards!"

"If you have a kind, come at us, don't embarrass women and children!"

"Something that is inferior to beasts!"

"My wife and children are still in the hands of the goblins......"

"Patriarch, save my wife and children, my son has just been weaned......"

"Patriarch, please!"

......

Gu Ang stared at the back of Bizni, who was about to walk out of the storeroom, and he listened to the pleading voices of his compatriots around him, his chest rising and falling.

"Wait!" Gu Ang shouted.

A smile tugged at the corners of Vizni's mouth, and he stopped, not looking back. Tanmeng asked Gu Ang, "Have you thought about it?"

Gu Ang gritted his teeth and hesitated for a moment before saying weakly, "I...... Promise you......"

Tanmon laughed triumphantly, and everyone sat on the ground in dismay, watching as Gu Ang stood up and walked out of the storeroom under the goblin's watch.

Zero followed Cousse to the edge of the cliff, the wind whistling over the steep cliffs. Zero looked at Kusse who was walking towards the boulder on the edge of the cliff with a puzzled face, and asked suspiciously, "Grandpa Kusse, where are we going?" ”

Cousse didn't reply, and walked straight to the boulder, Zero could only follow forward, he glanced at the severed suspension bridge in the distance, and thought to himself, if there was another way to get to the other side of the cliff?

Cousse walked to the edge of the cliff and glanced down at the river flowing below it, then he bent down and moved a watermelon-sized rock from the boulder beside him, revealing a hole in the back of the rock. Zero watched in amazement as Cousse reached into the hole and fumbled for a moment, then pulled out a chain from inside, which Cousse threw directly under the cliff.

"You're not afraid of heights, are you?" said Kusse, turning his head to Zero.

Zero Leng replied: "I'm not afraid of heights......"

"Can you climb rocks?" asked Cousse again.

"Also...... Not bad. Zero replied.

"Then come down with me. After Kusse finished speaking, he pulled the chain and stepped on the mountain wall and slowly climbed down the cliff, and Zero waited for a moment, and then tightened the chain and climbed to the bottom of the cliff.

Dwarven Village, in front of the Cellar of Soldiers. Gu Ang stood solemnly in front of the iron gate, he stood in place with his eyebrows bowed and his head bowed without saying a word, and Tanmon and Bizni stood on his left and right sides.

Tan Meng looked at Gu Ang's hesitant expression, and said impatiently: "Patriarch Gu Ang, please open the door of the hidden arsenal. ”

On the other side, Bizni also opened his mouth and persuaded Gu Ang: "As long as the Gu Ang Patriarch is willing to cooperate, I promise you on behalf of the Goblin Tribe that we will never embarrass the dwarves, and as long as Tan Meng gets the Yan Lord Sword and becomes the new Dwarven Clan Chief, we can share the land under our feet with the dwarves, and everyone can live in the same forest in harmony, isn't this the best ending?"

After Gu Ang was silent for a long time, he raised his head and sighed, then stared at the iron gate in front of him and said to Tan Meng: "Tan Meng, there are some things I want to make clear to you, the Flame Lord is a fierce sword that will devour the user, and you can't control it with your ability." You have made a serious mistake and I hope you don't go further down the wrong path. ”

"I don't want to listen to your words anymore," Tan Meng looked at Gu Ang's side face and said disdainfully, "For more than 20 years, I grew up under everyone's ridicule and white eyes, you have always ridiculed me as a useless fat man, and even my parents have become the object of your ridicule, since I questioned myself why I want to let you laugh at me, I secretly insisted on cultivating Dou Qi, I am now stronger than most people in the village, I'm afraid you can't see it, right?" You don't need to see that I've been hiding myself for this day. I want to get the strongest weapon of the entire dwarf race, I want to be the strongest person in the dwarf race, I want to rule all the dwarves, I want to make those who laughed at me and insulted me at the beginning only look up at me! Now, stop talking that useless nonsense, open the gate, break the seal, and don't let me force you to submit with the blood of my people!"

After listening to Tanmeng's words, Gu Ang sighed weakly, and then he took off the metal waist card hanging on his waist, raised his hand and embedded the waist card into the circular groove in the center of the gate, and poured the fighting qi into the gate in his palm, the lines around the waist card lit up, and there was a sound of turning in the iron gate, and the gate opened in response, and several goblins immediately stepped forward to push the gate open.

Pizni said to Gu Ang, "Patriarch Gu Ang, please lead the way. ”

Reluctantly, Gu Ang stepped down the stairs and walked towards the cellar, followed by Vizni and Tanmon with a group of goblins.

"Can you swim?"

Cousey and Zero are standing on the bank of the river below the cliff, and Cousei asks Zero as he looks at the rushing river.

"Yes, of course, I could hold my breath underwater for a few minutes. Zero replied.

Cousse nodded, then pointed to a rock diagonally across the shore and said, "See that rock?"

Zero looked at the rock in the direction that Kusse was pointing and nodded and replied, "See, what's wrong?"

"There's a hole in the riverbed directly below that stone," Cousse explained, turning his face to Zero, "and that's another secret entrance to the Vault. ”

"It's in such a secluded place!" Zero said in surprise.

"From here, jump into the river and dive, follow the river into the hole, and we can go into the cellar and get the holy weapon to rescue everyone. Cousse said as he looked at the water directly in front of him.

"Okay. Zero said with a nod.

Kusse looked at Zero beside him and reminded: "The current is very fast, you have to follow me, if you are swept away by the river and do not enter the hole, you must rise to the surface as soon as possible and climb to the shore, and come back here to swim into the mouth of the cave again." ”

"Well, don't worry, let's hurry up and enter the Tibetan Arsenal and rescue everyone quickly. Zero said to Cousse firmly.

Cousey nodded, stepped forward and jumped into the rushing river first, Zero took a deep breath and jumped into the water after him.

The river was very turbulent, and Zero could only faintly see Kusse's figure under the water, so he quickly unfolded his mind, and after sensing the location of the cave entrance, he swam in the direction of the cave entrance after Kusai.

Cousey swerved underwater and burrowed into the hole, turning to look at Zero behind him. Zero failed to control his swimming posture, and paddled along the water to the front of the cave entrance, seeing that he was about to miss the cave entrance, he immediately reached out and grabbed the stone wall by the cave entrance, who knew that the stone wall was slippery, and he was swept away by the water as soon as he grabbed it without any force. Kusse, who was in the hole, quickly grabbed Zero's wrist and pulled him into the hole.

Kusai pointed into the tunnel, and Zero nodded and followed Kusse as he swam down the tunnel.

Zero floats to the surface from the bottom of the water and gulps in the air. It was dark in front of him, and he couldn't see anything around him, but he telepathically realized that he was in a cavern with winding passages leading to other places.

Suddenly, there was a fire, and Zero floated on the water and looked at Kuse, who was standing on the shore with a torch, and then he saw the scene in the cave, and he was floating in a small pool.

"What are you doing in a daze? Come on. Cousse beckoned to Zero.

Zero paddled to the edge of the waterhole and climbed ashore, shook the water off his hair, and followed Kusse into the passage.
