Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Dwarven Patriarch Higg

Nova and Halley were both high-ranking dwarven warriors, and there was a fierce battle between the dwarves and the goblins in the pass, which lasted for three hours, and after Higg decided that the people were almost safe, he ordered the remaining dwarves to retreat, leaving only the three of them, and the rest of the dwarves were killed in the battle.

They hid in the wilderness for a day and a night, making sure that they were free from the goblins, and then came to this cellar to stay for a while, because Nova had been seriously injured during the battle, so they had been living in the cellar to recuperate, while Higg and Harley were not seriously injured, and after resting for the night, they returned to the pass, where there were no goblins guarding the pass, and they moved the corpses of their people to a place with a better location and environment and buried them, which took them a whole day.

For the next few days, they wandered around the dwarven hills like guerrillas, looking for an opportunity to eliminate the lone goblins.

In fact, the combat effectiveness of ordinary goblins is not strong, a low-level dwarf warrior can deal with two ordinary goblins, it is not impossible for a middle-level warrior like Sia to defeat with one enemy and four, and a high-level warrior like Sigharley is not difficult to defeat with one enemy and eight, but the strength of different goblins is not the same, and some are about to mutate into low-level warcraft, and they have the strength to fight a high-level warrior one-to-one, once they mutate into a low-level warcraft, then it is almost difficult for two high-level warriors to defeat together.

"Uncle Nova, I found goblin footprints at the door of the cellar, how did the goblins come here?" Shia asked Nova puzzled.

Nova laughed and replied:

"The day before yesterday, your father and Uncle Harley were looking for an opportunity to attack near the hills, as before, but as more and more goblins disappeared and aroused their vigilance, every time they traveled the goblins were in groups, and they had fewer and fewer opportunities to attack, and they were about to return empty-handed, a strange scene appeared. Although the goblins are resistant to cold, but they are also a monster that is very afraid of cold, and they hide back in the cave where we live in the evening, but there is a dark green mutated goblin maverick, digging cassava in our cassava field to eat, your father and Harley happened to see it when they passed by the cassava field, they quietly touched it from behind, and knocked it to the ground with a hammer, it should be a low-level demonic beast that has just mutated, and its strength is not as strong as several other low-level goblins, so it was so easy to be subdued. If it was usual, your father would have killed it immediately, but now to drive away the goblin group that occupies our homeland, what is lacking is strong combat power, so I signed a Warcraft contract with it, and named him Dumb, the goblin footprints you see are it, you don't have to worry. Thea breathed a sigh of relief, it sees.

"In this way, we have Uncle Andy, Little Ash, Dumb, Abba, Uncle Harley and me on our side, which is already equivalent to the strength of more than four low-level demonic beasts, and there is only one fifty-year-old low-level goblin in the goblin group, two twenty-year-old low-level goblins and more than seventy low-level goblins, it seems that the chance to defeat them is getting bigger and bigger. As he spoke, Sia was confident that he was now waiting for his father and Uncle Harley to come back and join them.

In the evening, through the hole in the cellar, Xia vaguely saw three short figures walking in the direction of the cellar, and after seeing the comers, Xia quickly ran out of the cellar to meet them.

The two dwarves and a goblin in front of them were stunned by the sudden rush of the figure, and it was not until Xia ran forward and called Abba to a dwarf with a golden beard on his face that he reacted.

Thea and his father hugged each other tightly for a moment before parting, and when they returned to the cellar and saw Stern's tall figure, they were startled the moment they saw how there could be humans on this island.

Higg looked back at Thea, whose face was full of doubt, and Thea explained to him as if she knew what he meant:

"He is a native of the Kadia continent who was shipwrecked on the island named Andy Stern, and this time our people were able to survive the crisis thanks to Uncle Andy's take-in, and they are now living in Uncle Andy's cave, which is very warm and has plenty of food. This time he specially accompanied me to look for you, although it was snowing on the road, but the road was quite smooth, and I finally found you. Higg listened to what Thea had to say, turned to Stern, knelt down and said to him:

"Brother Andy, you are the benefactor of our dwarves, your kindness and my people will remember it, I have nothing to say here, if our dwarves can survive this crisis, we will definitely do everything we can to help you return to your hometown as we repay you. ”

"Uncle Higg, hurry up, it is my great fate to meet you on the island, and I will do my best to fight side by side with you to drive away the goblins who occupy the hills, so that all your people can return to their own places. You're tired from a long day of traveling, so hurry up and eat something to rest. Stern quickly picked up Thea's father and said to him.

After chatting with Harley and Stern for a while, Higg took some fruits and vegetables from the cellar and ate them, Higg directly took a cabbage and folded the leaves and put it in his mouth and chewed it.

He squatted on the side, holding the fruit wine given to him by Higg in his hand while drinking while observing the dwarves on the side, the patriarch of the dwarf clan, Higg, had a golden beard and pale yellow mixed with white fluffy hair, and he had an iron hammer next to him, looking at the weight should weigh twenty pounds, the dwarves were born with divine power, as a high-level warrior, such a hammer wielded was simply lightweight, and then Harley had gray-brown hair, a mustache, and looked like he should only be five or six years older than Sia, wielding a long sword in his hand, he looked very strong and agile, and there was no one better than him among all the dwarves。

Look at the goblin on the side, pointed ears, long nose, a few green hairs on the top of the head, naked up and down, the skin of the whole body is glowing with dark green, it looks very thick, the two eyes are glowing with a faint blue light, from its dexterous movement can be seen its extraordinary strength, it is estimated that if it is not for Higg's sneak attack from behind, it may not be able to beat it with the combination of Hig and Harley.

"Dumb, stand aside, don't get in the way here. Higg raised his hand and struck the goblin's head, although he became his contract beast, but Higg still regarded it as an enemy and never gave it a good look, after all, there were several dwarven warriors who were killed by this goblin himself.

I saw that the goblin called Dumb let out a sharp scream and quickly retreated to the corner.
