Chen Kai and his party didn't know that they had wandered around the ghost gate, in fact, it was impossible for him to know. Not to mention how far the two sides were at the moment, the smoke from the burning carriage alone was enough to obscure everyone's vision.

The raging flames lasted for more than an hour, and the dazzling flames were clearly visible even after Chen Kai and his carriage had left more than ten kilometers. But after the carriage had run wildly for more than ten kilometers, the degree of the carriage began to decline, and finally it slowly recovered to the degree of travel, which was about ten kilometers per hour.

If it is on a flat road, maybe the carriage can reach a degree of 20 kilometers per hour, but Chen Kai's current location is a wasteland without roads, if it is not for the smooth road surface, it is not even possible to guarantee the current degree, the most important thing is that now Chen Kai and the horses they pull the cart are not enough, so that the group can only use such a degree to travel on the wasteland.

For the pack horses who pulled the carts, the carriages pulled by themselves were a bit strict, and the carriages that were originally pulled by four horses were now only two horses left. Looking at the struggling horses, Chen Kai estimated that after leaving the wasteland, these excellent pack horses would become crippled old horses, so he had to choose to get out of the carriage and move forward on foot to reduce the weight of the crew on the carriage. In fact, it was not only Chen Kai who did this, but others as long as they were physically sufficient, even the dwarves themselves did so, trying to save the horses' bodies, and at the same time acting as a protector of the entire convoy.

Armand found hundreds of dwarven muskets from the large dwarven convoy, as well as a large number of magic crystal gunpowder and bullets. A large part of these muskets were equipped into the hands of dwarven women who would not otherwise have to fight, sitting on horse-drawn carriages and acting as musketeers with muskets. As for the original dwarven musketeers, each carried at least three muskets, and Amand's own five muskets, of course, carried a battle axe at his waist. Although the power of the dwarven musket is very strong, no matter how strong the musket is, it cannot damage the skin of creatures above the sixth order, and only the bullets with the best matching characteristics in these muskets can penetrate the skin of high-level creatures. Armand's zuò muskets definitely fall into the latter category, and of course those special bullets are also the reason for the unique power of his muskets.

Therefore, after getting the new magic crystal gunpowder supplement, Armand made a lot of special bullets, of course, the best armor-piercing bullets had no way to make zuò because of the lack of materials and tools. However, the bullets made at this stage are enough for Armand. The weight of the musket was not light, especially for Armand, who carried a five-handled musket on his back, and after walking only a few kilometers, the sweat on Armand's forehead began to flow like no money. But the dwarf had no intention of putting down his musket, and in fact he had taken it as exercise.

"Will Armand still hold on?" Fei Yun sat in the carriage and shouted to the dwarves below, among all of them, only Fei Yun was still sitting in the carriage with Zhao Tiezhu, who couldn't walk, there was no way, the weight of the heavy crossbow was too heavy, and there was no roof of the carriage as a shooting platform, it was useless at all. In order to manipulate the heavy crossbow in time, Fei Yun was given the privilege of staying in the carriage.

"It's okay!" Armand didn't look up and continued to walk, not wanting to waste too much of his body by talking. As Armand finished speaking. His ears suddenly heard some movement, and Fei Yun on the carriage quickly turned the direction of the heavy crossbow and aimed towards the place where the sound sounded.

"Who!!" The musket in Armand's hand was instantly raised, aiming in the direction of the sound. Almost as soon as Armand's voice sounded, a black shadow jumped out of the grass, but the next moment, neither Armand, nor Fei Yunyi, nor anyone else attacked him. Because out of the grass jumped out of the dwarf. A dwarf with blood on his back.

"Help me!!" The dwarf only said these two words and fell directly to the ground, Chen Kai could clearly see the deep wound on the dwarf's back, and at the same time saw the enemy chasing after the dwarf.

"Mouse?" Looking at the enemy rushing out of the grass in front of him, Chen Kai's first impression was that the other party's head looked like a mouse.

"It's the Steppen!" Xu Fei drooped his head and glanced at it casually, and then stopped paying attention to these two guys with mouse heads. In his eyes, these two Steppenmen have basically been labeled as dead, in fact, Xu Fei doesn't think that two Steppenmen can hunt down this dwarf so wolf.

"Bang! Bang! With two gunshots, the Steppen-Man rushed out wielding improvised weapons before he could get a shot in the head at close range with a musket. Most of the rat people whose heads were blown off threw themselves directly to the ground. More muskets then aimed at the bushes, ready to kill the hidden enemies in the bushes. But after a few minutes, none of the Steppenmen appeared, which made the dwarves who had wanted to practice their musket skills sigh.

"Do you know this dwarf?" Chen Kai glanced at the dwarf wrapped in bandages, and after being rescued by Chen Kai and them, the dwarf fell into a coma, and he didn't wake up even when he was drugged. At the same time, Chen Kai and the others also realized that the wound behind this dwarf was very hideous, and there was a rich and incomparably evil power attached to the wound, obviously as Xu Fei expected, this dwarf was not injured in the hands of these two rat men.

"I don't know! He's not a black dwarf! How could I know that! Armand said softly, but he was not wrong. He really didn't have an impression of the gray dwarf, but of course one of the gray dwarves in the team knew him.

"It's Bilberg! I know him! He's a member of the scout team sent by the main city! "The Grey Dwarf who spoke was one of the few remaining Grey Dwarves in the entire convoy. For the entire escort of hundreds of gray dwarves, they were the last ones left. In fact, these gray dwarves don't like to talk very much now, they are more guilty than Chen Kai and the others, more than two thousand of their clan died in one day, and it is obvious that this death will definitely not be caused by their black dwarf clan. The reason for the death of thousands of his fellow clans in one day could only be those carriages, or the strong men in the carriages, and the gray dwarves who arranged for this formation.

"It's good to know!" Chen Kai slowly breathed a sigh of relief, after all, if it was a dwarf he didn't know, then the group would have to consider the origin of this dwarf. In fact, Chen Kaizhi was not worried about whether this dwarf was an evil creature or not. Because Chen Kai directly used the Holy Flame to burn the opponent's wound when he was dealing with the other party's wound, removing all the evil power on the wound. If the opponent is an evil creature, then the holy flame attached to the palm of his hand will burn him to the ground.

"Let him rest well! Maybe we'll know something when he wakes up! Chen Kai sighed and put the dwarf into the carriage, the rickety carriage was not a good place for the wounded.

"Boss! Do we need to search around for any living dwarves? Fei Yun looked at the dwarf who slowly disappeared behind the carriage door and asked softly. At the same time, the other dwarves also looked at Chen Kai with a look of hope.

"I guess not! He was a scout to escape. The other dwarves ......" Chen Kai did not continue, but everyone knew the meaning behind his words, that is, it was impossible for the other dwarves to escape.

"Let's do a search! Maybe there are dwarves who have escaped! Xu Fei slowly stretched out his neck at this time and said, his words made Chen Kai feel puzzled, the most important thing is that it is not safe around now.

"Do you really need to do this?" Chen Kai looked at Xu Fei hanging his neck on the carriage and said, because he felt that it was too dangerous to do so. The entire convoy was now extremely weak, and if it were to be divided to search for survivors, it would be necessary to waste more time and put the convoy in greater danger.

"Yes! Of course, we have to find a safe place to settle down first! We need to recuperate before we can go looking for survivors. The most important thing is that we can wait for others to join us while we search for survivors. Xu Fei patted the simple map in his hand with his hand, which was the most important thing that the dwarves had searched for from the convoy. However, Chen Kai and the others did not see the remains of the dwarven powerhouse, and they didn't know if the other party had fled or left with those carriages.

"Okay!" Chen Kai finally chose to agree, of course, he knew very well that it was impossible to find a few people when he searched for survivors now, and Xu Fei's biggest purpose was to wait for the others to join them after they were resurrected. Crossing the wasteland can be dangerous, but it's at least much safer than having an entire convoy travel thousands of miles to pick them up. The larger the number of people, the greater the target, and the more dangerous it will be in the wasteland. As for the safe place Xu Fei chose, it was not far from their current location. Of course, there is no safe place to do anything in the wasteland, because there is no real safe place in the whole wasteland. Chen Kai: They chose this small valley is only the so-called safety, there are very few such canyons in the wasteland, because there are few mountains in the wasteland, and there are only small hills.

So the cliffs around this small canyon are not very high, only three or four meters, in fact, in general, it is not a good place to hide. First of all, it did not have a strong enough defensive perimeter, secondly, the entrance and exit were too narrow for carriages to enter, and most importantly, there was no water source in the small canyon and the place was very small. Such a cramped place is just right for a convoy of only a few hundred people. Of course, they couldn't build a well-equipped defensive camp here, so they could simply lay out a simple camp.

The group quickly set up the camp, but looking at the canyon cliff that was less than three meters high overhead, everyone felt that the camp's defense was a bit weak. If someone blocks the entrance and exit of the canyon, then there is no place to run. However, Chen Kai estimated that no one should be able to block the entrance and exit of the canyon for a period of time under the attack of a dozen dwarven musketeers, and the problem of the cliff walls around the canyon would be better solved, that is, just place some traps on the cliff walls. Because Chen Kai and the others did not plan to stay here for a long time, the entire camp was not carefully built, but they carefully built the escape channel.

The dwarves cooperated with the ecliptic to dig an underground passage in the canyon that led to more than a hundred meters away. In the case of the Zodiac Spell, this passage took only an afternoon to complete, and the whole passage was perfect, except that it was not very strong. Of course, for Chen Kai, he won't get into that passage even if he is killed, because he will definitely not be able to climb out after getting in.

After setting up the camp, Chen Kai began to wander around with a few dwarves, in fact, these dwarves also knew very well that their own people might not survive, but there was always one hope. After all, the dwarf Biborg, who was rescued by them not long ago, is an example, although this dwarf has not woken up until now, but at least he is still alive.

When Chen Kai left the camp, Xu Fei began to instruct the dwarves to clean up the ground in the camp and began to set up a cauldron to prepare food. The so-called people are iron rice, rice is steel, a meal is not hungry, panic, even if you encounter great difficulties, you must fill your stomach and then talk about it. As puffs of smoke rose from the camp. The whole camp finally regained a little bit of anger. Of the more than 300 dwarves in the camp, there are less than 80 adult male dwarves, and the rest are underage children, women and children. So the garrison of the camp is actually quite problematic, after all, those adult male dwarves are not all warriors. But now they have to act as warriors.

For example, several dwarves of the follower Chen Kai. Not to mention picking up a war hammer as a warrior before, they didn't even use a musket. But now they have to put down their tools and take up arms, because they have to fight to defend their families and people. Of course, it is also fortunate that they are black dwarves who are not weak in combat power, and if they are gray dwarves who have been on the ground for a long time, they may not be so easy to adapt to. The black dwarves in the underground have a certain combat ability even if they were once only craftsmen, and if they are gray dwarves on the ground, it is estimated that they may not be able to use weapons other than farm tools.

The dwarves with a few muskets on their backs rode pack horses and followed Chen Kai's ass to form an improvised survivor search team, carrying some dry food in Chen Kai's backpack. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that these dwarves were in a hurry, Chen Kai would still hope to wait until he had eaten before going out. That's not possible now. So he could only go hungry and take these dwarves to move quickly in the direction where the big dwarven convoy used to be. According to the map that Chen Kai copied from Xu Fei, there were probably only a few places around the entire dwarf camp where there might be survivors.

Therefore, Chen Kai and the others only need to focus on searching these places, and then look for them little by little along these areas. In fact, if the dwarf scout woke up, Chen Kai and the others didn't need to search like this at all, they only needed to ask the dwarf scout, and they could roughly determine where the survivors might be kept, so that they wouldn't waste their time. In fact, if Armand was a little more reliable, Chen Kai and they would not have to be so lucky, because in the end, it was Armand Chen Kai who did not participate in the search for the dwarves' corpses, so if Armand recorded the death toll at that time, and then compared with the total number of black dwarves, you can roughly understand whether there are survivors.

It's a pity that Armand didn't pay attention to this. And Chen Kai and the others did not remind them because of time problems and worries about the enemy, and now that they think about it, Chen Kai feels that he was in a hurry. If you had paid a little attention at that time, maybe you wouldn't need to be so troublesome now, looking for survivors who may not have zài in a dangerous wilderness, and Chen Kai really felt a little depressed when he took this task. Of course, it's not that he doesn't want any dwarves to survive, but in Chen Kai's heart, he already feels that there should be no dwarves alive in such a situation.

Although Chen Kai had put the word survivor in his mind like other dwarves, Chen Kai still began to search for the so-called survivor in the wasteland very dedicatedly. From the unburned ruins of the dwarven convoy, slowly searched along the predetermined route. The high temperature of the scorching flame can still be felt even from a long distance. The ashes falling like snowflakes from the mountains overhead made Chen Kai have to put on his hood, and the dwarves behind him also wore gray hoods and followed Chen Kai's ass to search the grass step by step, hoping to find his possible surviving clansmen in this grass.

Since the ground around the camp had already been cleared by the collision of two unnatural forces, there were no plants on the scraped ground at all, not to mention that many traces had been removed. Chen Kai saw almost no traces outside the camp except for the traces left by his group, which means that after the fire broke out in the camp, no surviving dwarves came back to check. Of course, this is actually normal, after all, those dwarves probably think that the fire was released by the enemy, so naturally they will not run back and throw themselves into the net.

So Chen Kai gave up the idea of finding traces of survivors around the camp, and instead began to take the dwarves to search the grass, which is the place where they are staying now. Located in a meadow area less than two kilometers away from the dwarven camp. This is one of the areas that Xu Fei circled on the map as there were likely survivors, as most of the scouts would search for such places where tall weeds would grow so that enemies would not hide in the grass. This meadow area is lush with grass leaves, although they are all gray-yellow leaves, but all the weeds are nearly one meter high, and there is absolutely no problem hiding a few people in such a large meadow.

"Anyone?" While brandishing sticks and searching the meadow area, Chen Kai and the dwarves also tried to lure out the dwarves who were hiding with their shouts, but there was no doubt that there was no response other than the empty echoes around them. Not only is there no one in this area, not even animals are alive in the dead zone. (To be continued.)
