Happy Lantern Festival, everyone! It's a bit late! I'm ready to wash and sleep! At least squint for half an hour before the baby at home goes crazy, otherwise he will have dark circles tomorrow when he tosses until three o'clock! ——

Happy Lantern Festival –

"Marita! Zedo! Adogo! As the light of the fire gradually lit up, the black dwarves gathered around Chen Kai gradually recognized the names of the strange dwarves on the top of the rock. Their countenances became even more stunned, for it was clear that these dwarves were all familiar to them, only now that the familiar person had become a little stranger. Aside from the familiar-looking face, the black dwarf could no longer see any shadow of the dwarf from the other person's body.

These former dwarves are now extremely strange, not to mention the way they move, the elongated hands alone are enough to completely distinguish them from the dwarves, and directly change the third person from him to it. Because in Chen Kai's eyes, these guys can no longer be called humanoid intelligent creatures, although it is obvious that they are just as intelligent and even extremely cunning. The thought that these guys could use the voices of their clan to lure Chen Kai and them to the heart of the weathered rock area, this alone proved that these guys were very intelligent.

"Don't be fooled by them! They're not dwarves anymore! Chen Kai shouted softly, and at the same time began to bless the dwarves with the Word of Firmness, so that they would not be affected by spiritual spells. Of course, Chen Kai knew very well that these guys were definitely not using spiritual spells, they were just using their former identities to lure dwarves.

"I know! But—" The black dwarf's voice trembled a little as he called out the dwarves' names, for he knew them all too well, they were all his neighbors and friends. Looking at the other party's current appearance, he couldn't believe that this was true.

"Glico! Why don't you come to our rescue! Hurry up and save us! Just as Chen Kai was about to say something, several strange dwarves on the opposite rock suddenly made a sound again, and a trace of strange aura flashed in the air, and the dwarf called Gligo was the black dwarf who shouted out the names of several dwarves among the strange dwarves on the opposite side before.

"Don't listen to them!" Chen Kai shouted at the black dwarf, his voice was extremely loud, and instantly woke up several black dwarves who were in a daze, and the dwarf called Glico broke out in a cold sweat in an instant. Because he had unknowingly stepped out just now. If it weren't for Chen Kai's yelling, maybe he would have walked towards those weird dwarves now.

"Be careful not to shoot casually! They move fast! Chen Kai looked at the strange dwarf above his head and slowly clenched the giant sword in his hand, until now he didn't know what to call these monsters that were once dwarves.

"Since you don't want to come to our rescue! Then go die! Just as Chen Kai's words fell, the strange dwarf suddenly made a voice in unison. Listening to the sound of death in his ears that he remembered at the same time, Chen Kai suddenly chuckled in his heart, because he found that he was a little unable to capture the movements of these dwarves.

"Damn! How can they be so fast! Originally, Chen Kai thought that he should be able to block these guys with his own ability, and then let the dwarves assist in shooting and eliminating these guys. But now he found that he could barely catch the trajectory of the other party's movements, which meant that he could only protect himself under the attacks of these guys. But thinking of the consequences of not being able to defend himself, Chen Kai gritted his teeth, he directly gave up protecting himself, and his hand was clenched into a fist, and he instantly swung an attack to the other side of his body. The roaring holy flame condensed in mid-air and roared out towards Chen Kai's right hand, and when this attack completely formed the image of a roaring lion in the air. A black shadow appeared right in front of the lion, and was hit head-on by the flaming flame.

The two black shadows that rushed towards the dwarven musketeers were instantly enveloped in the scorching flames, and everyone heard the terrible scream, but at the same time, the sound of claws and metal clashing sounded on Chen Kai's giant sword and Ge Gangdo's shield. Of course, the sound of flesh being torn apart sounded on Chen Kai's thighs, and scarlet blood splashed with a weird smile.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! At the same time as the splash of blood was about to stain the ground red, the dwarf who came back to his senses pulled the trigger without hesitation towards the former clan in front of him, and the two strange dwarves who were ignited by Chen Kai with holy flames were instantly hit by three or four muskets. The entire body was knocked out by the huge impetus of the gunpowder projectile, and the other two muskets were skewed during the attack.

Both of the dwarves whose muskets had been struck and slanted saw the enlarged claws in front of them, and the hideous expressions on the faces of their former kindred. At this moment, the only feeling of the two dwarves was that they were dead, but fortunately, the sound of muskets in their ears rang out again. One of the dwarves with more than one musket on his back came to his senses and pulled the trigger. The flying bullets hit the strange dwarves who were listed as monsters by Chen Kai, and the extremely close shot blasted the opponent out and crashed into another enemy, allowing their outstretched claws to sweep in front of the two dwarves, narrowly saving the lives of the two dwarves who almost hung up.

In the first contact battle with the former dwarven survivors, two of the fifteen eerie dwarves appeared to be depleted. But Chen Kai and the others were almost deposed, and the two dwarven musketeers were also injured, and Chen Kai's own thigh was also injured in an unsightly way. Chen Kai didn't look at his thighs, just glanced at his status bar, and he knew that the wound on his leg was not shallow. Because of the two negative states of muscle tearing and bleeding in his state, seeing these two states, Chen Kai directly swung his palm towards his thigh, and a golden magic light covered the wound in an instant, and at the same time, the giant sword in Chen Kai's hand swung directly sideways towards the enemy in front of him.

Chen Kai, who was wielding a giant sword with one hand, burst out with fighting spirit without reservation. The ability to unleash skills at the same time is one of the best among players, and even in the hands of the natives, this hand is very difficult, as it requires extreme precision in the mana, manipulation, and mental coordination. The moment the blade of the giant sword swept out, Chen Kai already knew the result of his attack, in fact, he was now focusing more on healing than attacking. Therefore, the seemingly very powerful giant sword sweep actually does not contain much power.

The dwarf with a weird smile instantly jumped away from Chen Kai's thigh, and the other two weird dwarves who had collided with Chen Kai's giant sword before instantly gave up the idea of sweeping Chen Kai's chest with their claws, and also chose to retreat. Because at this time, the dwarven musketeers who had come back to their senses had already reloaded their muskets, and the lead bullets that flew out streaked through the air with red light, and it was difficult to dodge even if these dwarves with mutated bodies were extremely fast at extremely close range. At least the few in front of Gegangdo's shield were hit by bullets in an instant, and their bodies flew out uncontrollably.

It was only in the next moment that Chen Kai found that these dwarves who were hit were not injured too much. Because the places on their bodies that were hit by bullets were not penetrated, and even some positions only had a burning white spot because of the strong defense.

"It's... This! Looking at the strange dwarves who gradually got up from the ground, Chen Kai's face began to become extremely ugly, especially except for the two guys who had been burned by the holy flame and looked a little miserable, the other guys were only slightly injured. Chen Kai didn't even see a thing in the chest that was hit head-on by a bullet without losing much health, at least he didn't see the other party's blood bar move a few times.

"Reload your bullets! Stuff me with armor-piercing bullets! Chen Kai held the hilt of the giant sword with both hands, the wound on his thigh was not completely closed after his own simple treatment, but at least Chen Kai was able to move his leg a little so that he couldn't even take a step. It's just that Chen Kai feels that this time it will be very bad, because the height of the other party's body is too low, and the average height of these weird dwarves on all fours is less than Chen Kai's knees. Even if the other party stood upright, it was no more than the height of his waist. Moreover, these guys can't stand upright at all, at most, they just have to bend down, so Chen Kai has to bend down if he wants to attack them. This is a very tiring action, don't look at Chen Kai's giant sword sweeping past, he can envelop the other party completely, but every time he swings the giant sword, he needs to pay ten to twenty percent more body.

The strange dwarves who had completed an attack when Chen Kai yelled formed a circle and surrounded them in the center, fifteen dwarves were not the real number of dwarves loaded in a carriage. Generally speaking, a carriage consists of eight to ten people, including the two coachmen who drive it, and even then the carriage is very crowded. Normally, it would be best to keep a carriage and coachmen at five to six, but this time the gray dwarves had only mobilized more than three hundred wagons, so the dwarves in the carriage were a bit crowded. But apparently these former dwarves escaped in a carriage that was overloaded with strictness, and the number of fifteen dwarves was already considered overloaded for a carriage.

"I hate overloading!" This is Chen Kai's only thought at the moment. If the carriage wasn't overstaffed, they'd only face a maximum of ten of these weird monsters, but now they'd be half more. Of course, he also knew very well that in such a situation, the black dwarves would never mind stuffing a dozen people into a carriage in order to survive. If conditions permit, there may be more than twenty or thirty crammed into a carriage. After all, in reality, there are overloads that are three or four times overloaded. But now Chen Kai really hopes that the carriage behind him can not be overloaded, so that at least they need to face a little less monsters.

"Holy Impact!" Looking at the strange dwarf rushing towards him, Chen Kai directly stretched out his finger and pressed harder, and a magic technique that he hadn't used for a long time shot out in an instant. This extremely low-end magic killing effect is very scummy. At least in Chen Kai's opinion, it was very effective against dwarves with an evil aura wrapped in their bodies, at least more effective than ordinary bullets. The golden divine light instantly hit the other party. And at this moment, Chen Kai saw the other party's name in the system for the first time.

"Demon dwarves?! What bullshit~! Although Chen Kai didn't know what bullshit the other party was, there was no doubt that they were also decorated with dwarf names in the system, and it was generally estimated that the other party was once a dwarf. While checking the name of the opponent's system through the guò combat system, Chen Kai also found that his attack did not cause much damage to the opponent, and the divine impact released by one hundred points of magic power only caused twice the damage blow, that is, less than two hundred points of damage.

Such an attack was nothing short of a drizzle for these creatures named Demon Dwarves, but the damage caused by Chen Kai's fingers continuously sending out divine shocks gradually added up. The attack of the most important divine attribute was too terrifying for these demon dwarves whose bodies were covered with a strong evil power, and every divine impact that fell on these dwarves made them feel as if they had been pricked by needles.

Chen Kai's fingers kept firing divine magic to stop the demon dwarves around him, he needed to buy time for these dwarves to reload their bullets, in fact, if it wasn't for the other party's speed being too fast, Chen Kai would definitely not use the magic of divine impact. Chen Kai would rather use the Dawn Spiral Cannon than use the Holy Impact, at least the latter is much more powerful. It's a pity that the latter can't do it instantaneously, otherwise Chen Kai would definitely replace the shining light on his fingers with an even more powerful oval cannonball.

"Aim and shoot again!!" Looking at the dwarf Chen Kai who had finished loading the bullets, he shouted loudly, he didn't want to waste most of his magic power to make the opportunity to reload the ammunition in vain. Hearing Chen Kai's words, these dwarven musketeers who were in a hurry to pull the trigger finally calmed down a little, and they tried to adjust their breathing to calm their mood, but the demon dwarves around them let out extremely weird laughter and kept moving their steps, so that they couldn't aim at all.

Seeing this situation, Chen Kai was also extremely anxious, because his magic power was not abundant, after all, he was just a temple knight and not a real mage. Luckily, these dwarven musketeers weren't stupid, and when one person couldn't aim, they simply worked in pairs and aimed directly at an enemy with two muskets. As a result, a crisp musket sound immediately sounded in Chen Kai's ears, and the bullets that flew out flew at high speed in the air and quickly hit the target, this time Chen Kai finally saw the scene of blood splashing. Blood holes appeared in the bodies of the two fast-moving demon dwarves. The spread of the wound looked extremely hideous, especially as one of the demon dwarves had its entire chest pierced.

"How is that possible! None of them will die! Are they undead? Ge Gangduo looked at the demon dwarf whose chest was shattered and still slowly got up, with a shocked expression on his face, and Chen Kai also had an ugly face. Because he found that if these demon dwarves were really like undead beings, then maybe they would really be planted here this time.

"Shoot these guys in the head! I don't believe they're still alive after being shot in the head! Chen Kai pointed at the demon dwarf who was crawling slowly, he didn't believe that these dwarf musketeers would be so bad, and if they couldn't hit the dwarves with such slow moving speed, then they could really go and get a piece of tofu and kill themselves.

Fortunately, these dwarven musketeers are always reliable, and the first person to react at the moment Chen Kai shouted was Murdos. His musket rang out earlier than the others, instantly shattering the head of the demon dwarf whose chest had been shattered into a burst watermelon. Although he used to know the dwarf named Adogo, the other person was no longer the black dwarf with the long beard he remembered.

The shattered head splattered out of the way. And the next moment, the heads of two more demon dwarves were shattered. It's just that what Chen Kai didn't expect was that even if their heads were shattered, these demon dwarves could still move, although they walked in no direction and staggered, but this made them feel even more frightened, and several dwarven musketeers felt even more frightened.

"Don't be afraid! Splash with holy water! Chen Kai swung his giant sword and swept out, blocking back several demon dwarves who tried to pounce. Then he directly threw all the holy water collected from other people in his backpack on the ground. These holy waters were specially collected by Chen Kai because he was worried about the situation he had before the dwarven convoy camp again, and now there was no doubt that his preparations were not wrong. After hearing Chen Kai's words, several dwarves did not hesitate to pick up the bottles filled with holy water on the ground and smashed them directly at the demon dwarves whose heads were shattered. The holy water flowing from the broken bottle instantly reacted with the evil aura on the other party's body.

In the flying white smoke, the originally slow-moving demon dwarf began to struggle continuously, and even began to tear his body as if he wanted to tear off the skin of his body that had been splashed with holy water, the whole scene was extremely bloody and terrifying, making people feel creepy. But in order to save their lives, none of the dwarves stopped. They kept splashing the holy water, and even almost threw out all the holy water that Chen Kai took out. Fortunately, in the end, these dwarves were still a little sensible and did not do such a wasteful thing, otherwise Chen Kai really didn't know what to say.

A large amount of holy water began to corrode the headless demon dwarves like acid, eventually turning them into a puddle of black-red blood that gradually seeped into the ground. Looking at the dissolving former kindred, the expressions on the faces of the dwarves were extremely exciting, and if it weren't for the large number of enemies around, maybe they would really collapse completely.

"Keep attacking me! Do you want to go back alive? Chen Kai's voice was full of anxiety, because he had already hung several places on his body again. If these dwarves continue like this, then I wonder if he will run out of blood and hang up first. (To be continued......)
