Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Gnomes

The entire cavern was enveloped in flames, and countless flames pierced through the cavern and swept out along the passageway. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Perhaps facing the real threat of death, the dwarves fled in droves when Amante had unleashed a torrential rain of fire.

However, they were numerous and weak, and after the temperature of the flames spread, there were still a small number of dwarves who had not had time to escape and were swept up by the flames, and directly evaporated into ashes.

The high temperature made the entire cave "sizzle" and the mud and stones on the cave walls were even melted into liquid, flowing down little by little.

Sensing the threat, the wind elemental beside him issued a sharp warning, and flew towards a passage with him, regardless of his thoughts. The bones are also hot in such a high temperature, and I just feel that my soul is going to boil, which is really uncomfortable. Ash immediately made a decision and immediately retreated.

With the help of the Wind Elemental around them, they tore open a small hole in the flames, and a group of people could dodge into a passage, and with the combined efforts of the bones, they finally resisted the attack of the flames.

The flames burned for more than ten minutes, melting the entire cavern into a puddle of soft mud. The ground was a soft red, and Sigma stuck out her tongue before she poked out a head, and was immediately forced back by the fierce and pungent smell of burning.

His nose had been smoked to the point that he had lost his sense of smell, and even with the help of the wind element, the smell still drilled into his nose. Now I'm rubbing my nose vigorously, and it's extremely uncomfortable.

In mid-air, Amante's figure had disappeared, and he didn't know when he had fled. Under such flames, not to mention the dwarves that remained inside were all turned into ashes, and all the weapons and armor that were made melted into a piece of molten iron, either melted with the ground or vaporized. In such a situation. But a few figures flashed from it, and when they looked at it, it was actually a group of zombies!

The zombies looked like humans with corrupted skin, and their faces were different from normal zombies, not so bruised, still white or sallow. But their bodies were stiff, and they walked on the hot ground, and they didn't care, letting the ground roast the soles of their feet.

The smell of barbecue came out, and his stomach gurgled. I'm actually hungry.

Sigma gave a strange look and was pressed back into her arms by Ash.

"Hungry?"

He nodded, then frowned again. Looking at the group of zombies, he said, "It stinks, it doesn't taste good." ”

"Hungry! Eat fragrant! "Fragrant barbecue!

The simple smile made Ash relax slightly in such a tense situation.

She smiled faintly and rubbed his head. "Bear with me a little longer." ”

Her eyes looked at the zombies again, and the zombies were not walking fast, but in such a high temperature, although the soles of their feet were cooked, they still continued to move in their direction.

Was it summoned by Amante?

Ash probably figured out Amante's thoughts. At the moment, he used dark magic to put a diaphragm on the soles of his feet, and then with a slight jump, he approached those zombies.

The bones do the same. He also followed out of the passage. Restrained by the wind elemental, he could only watch Ash leave his side, whimpering a few times in his throat, and then reluctantly sat in the passage and waited.

These zombies are very powerful and very poisonous. On these two counts alone, Amante's experiment was a success. Raised these zombies by a level. But because of their stiffness, as long as they don't get two meters in circumference, they won't be bitten or caught. Although the attack power has been increased, it has no effect if it misses the enemy.

Ash jumped between the zombies, and tried to attack with weapons and magic, and found that the skin of these zombies was similar to that of ordinary humans, and they were constantly rotting and falling, and suddenly felt that they were not threatening.

Try to attack with the dark element, and the zombies are immediately like Lori who has been pushed down by a fierce man, staggering around. Ash raised an eyebrow, and then let the bones try it with divine power. The divine power in the short spear was stimulated, and it was clouded with white light, and the white light radiated by the white light, like snowflakes melting in the sun, one by one, and it didn't take long for only a fragile skeleton to remain.

Ash breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they knew the weaknesses of these zombies, it would be much easier to deal with them, even if Amante's experiment was really successful in the future, they would still be able to make a powerful attack on these zombies.

After spending a while completely eliminating the zombies, Ash and the Grey picked a path through the wind elemental feedback, saying that there were many life forms in the channel.

Most of the members of the Wild Wolf Mercenary Regiment have been dealt with, and the rest are all mercenaries in groups of three or two, who don't need to do anything, and with a breath of anger, they command the wind element to tear those people into several pieces.

"Tsk, the intestines are falling out, it's too bloody." Sigma stuck out her tongue and grumbled.

However, looking at the malicious expression on the little devil's face, he didn't look disgusted at all, but was full of interest. He was a demon, not an angel, born from the chaotic demon world, and although he was not a tyrannical demon, he also loved blood and fighting. I like to sow discord the most, watching others fight and bloody, and this bloody thing in front of me certainly doesn't take it to heart.

In the deepest part of the passage is a small cave that is connected together. Like the cross-section of a beehive, densely packed together.

The caves were small, each measuring five or six square meters, and were filled with a lot of paper, and a dwarf was locked in his room, writing and drawing.

Ash eliminated all the guards and opened a wooden cell door. The dwarf inside raised his head timidly and hurriedly handed over the paper in his hand.

Ash glanced at it, and the paper was actually a weapon design!

The design drawings are very clear, even in such a poor environment of tools, forced to draw, the dwarf still carefully drew the design of this lethal and easy to mass-produce weapon.

Seeing Ash staring at him, the little dwarf was about to cry, but he resigned, "This... This month's... I've handed it all in..."

"It's... This is the last one..."

He sniffed in fear, his cute little face was now wrinkled, and tears were rolling in his eyes, which was pitiful, and made people want to hold him in his arms and comfort him.

Ash also has a crush on the delicate dwarf in front of him, who is as delicate as a doll. The corners of her mouth were slightly curled, but she didn't know that her whole body was covered with bandages, and this smile made the dwarf even more afraid. Coupled with the bones that probed his brain behind the ash, he suddenly had a bad association, shivered, and tears fell disobediently.

Ash was a little at a loss, she had never been very good at dealing with these creatures with clear eyes, Sigma smiled shamelessly. "He's scared!"

"Master, you scared him with this dress!"

Ash frowned slightly, not quite understanding what was wrong with his dress, and simply left the room. Go with the bones and open the other doors.

One by one, the small houses were opened, and some of the gnomes saw through the gates the corpses of the dead members of the Wolf Mercenary Regiment.

The timid ones still hid in the house, but the bold ones walked out of the house and carefully looked at the ashes and bones.

"She's a necromancer!"

"Is it with that necromancer?"

"I don't know, but it looks like... Not like. ”

Some gnomes who knew each other quietly exchanged information. The eyes that looked at the ashes and bones were full of doubt and wariness.

They were kept in these huts, and their daily task was to draw drawings, and they had to hand in at least five manuscripts a month, or they would be whipped, sold, or dragged out by the mercenaries.

The frightened by the ashes are the most delicate of this group of gnomes. If it weren't for his strong design talent, he would have been sold by those mercenaries long ago.

They're gnomes. It's not a human dwarf created by those genetic defects in the interstellar world, but a life completely different from humans. It's like Zhengtai and Luo Li, who will never grow up, and some of them look like they are all talkative. Biased towards the elf family, very delicate, and some are the same as Mi Fa and Dora, with a little baby fat, so cute that they burst. They have a flexible mind and love to learn. Although he doesn't know magic and vindictiveness, he is a group of very good researchers and designers. Craftsman.

In the gray impression, unlike the delicacy of the elves' design and the luxury pursued by humans, the weapons and crafts designed by the gnomes are the most practical and cost-effective things, and they are very popular wherever they are. But on this continent, the gnomes live in isolation. Most of the born dwarfs could not withstand the capture of humans, and they were either captured by mercenary groups to work, or they were kept in captivity by some nobles.

Ash got the cell from the mouths of several dwarfs who didn't dare to resist, and immediately beckoned the bones to move on.

Bones shook his head, grabbed a few gold coins in his hand, and was putting them in the storage bag on his waist, and hurriedly made a waiting gesture.

He didn't dare to go out of the room, so he had to tiptoe on the table and look out from the small window.

It happened that as soon as the bones were taken out of a guard's pocket, the opponent's weapons and armor were all taken off and put into his own storage bag.

During this period, he didn't know if the skeleton had communicated with other skeletons, and the other skeletons also learned from the skeleton and ripped the remaining dozen mercenaries to the bottom.

Immediately, his eyes widened with curiosity, and he felt amused. Before I knew it, I stopped crying, my mouth was slightly open, and my fear of the skeletons was not so strong.

"What are you doing?" Sigma flew out, her little face full of miserable, hateful expressions, and said, "It's not that you haven't seen good weapons and good armor, what else do you want this garbage for?" ”

The bones trembled up and down as soon as the jawbones shook, laughed silently, kissed the gold coin obscenely, and made a few gestures.

"Pocket money? Wait a minute... Pretend... Yin Man... Ay?! Not bad—" Sigma touched his chin and became interested, "But those low-level skeletons that have been summoned won't have such sophisticated equipment. ”

"Uh-huh, I'll see, how many more notches do you cut in this sword?"

"Ah, and this armor, get some more soil, blood or something!"

The little devil and a group of bones are gurgling, thinking of all kinds of yin tricks. Some of the surrounding gnomes who studied magic were staring at each other, they had never seen skeletons so agile and autonomous!
