"Can't be wrong. He didn't have a lot of children left. ”

Dala Potter drew a seven, spread it out, threw out a three, and muttered as he stared at the only card in his hand.

"Why?" asked the dwarf wanderer, whom the illusionist called him.

"Every time you don't have any money, your face is like a dead corpse, and you can't open your eyes. A spear and shield warrior joined in the teasing.

"Hahahaha......"

Looking at the dwarf investigation team playing cards, Mayor Soft Maple couldn't help but feel speechless for a while—they came here, put down four or five mercenaries, and annoyed at least three or four strong men who were used to licking blood at the tip of a knife, but now they still had the heart to play card games.

In fact, if he knew what the gnomes had done, I'm afraid that there would be one more person the dwarfs had offended.

"Ladies and gentlemen of Dwarf Island," the mayor, who didn't want to wait any longer, finally took the initiative to ask, "Has Dwarf Island received a message from the flying pigeons of Soft Maple City? The emperor has already woken up, and what are the planners on that hill, didn't Dwarf Island send more troops? I mean, just because you came to Soft Maple City, I'm afraid that the manpower is still a little stretched. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, our hosts can't wait," Darlapter tossed his cards aside, he was sure to lose, so he wanted to give away the money by talking to the fat mayor, "and he won't even give us time to play a hand." ”

The mayor ignored him, just waited quietly for him to answer his doubts. Seeing this, Dara Porter smiled and flipped the table over in the midst of the scolding and squatting of his companions, "We have received information. More reinforcements from Dwarf Island were inside that icebreaker. It's just that a few of us are an investigation team, so let's find out the situation here first. ”

"What do you want to know?" asked the mayor of Soft Maple City.

Dara Potter walked up to him. "All of that," the dwarf illusionist said succinctly, gesturing to the storm mech standing behind him, "who unearthed this ancient war machine, and how did the emperor and his raiders awaken?" ”

Without asking "how do you want to check", with the fat mayor's understanding of the gnomes, if they already have a goal, then they will definitely make more than one plan before executing it. And for the average human, the dwarf's brain circuits are really hard to understand, so he doesn't want to waste time asking about things that he is unlikely to understand.

"What needs 'we' to do, I mean......" He deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the word 'we', and after careful consideration, laid out the affairs of the City Alliance...... Several of the cities near Acer City—Red Pine, Emerald Wood, Black Willow, and Lan Feng—have formed an alliance, and I have just agreed to join on behalf of Soft Maple. So, if you want to investigate the history of the emperor's resurgence, we can definitely provide more detailed information. After all, the activities of the monsters have long been ......"

Hearing Mayor Soft Maple say that several Ramsay human city-states were united, Dara Potter's face froze for a moment, and his button-sized nose twitched twice.

"When did your union happen, and why didn't Gnome Island get noticed?"

"Just now," replied the fat mayor with a slight self-suff. It can make the arrogant dwarf investigator become impatient, and he seems to feel that he has pulled back his way. "The awakening of the emperor is already a certainty. The monsters under his command have been invading the territory of Soft Maple City for many days. If a few cities don't join forces, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long. ”

"That's what we're going to investigate!" Dalapter shouted in a sharp voice, "How can you tell if the Emperor has awakened without sufficient evidence......?" Ordinary monsters. ”

Originally, he wanted to talk about "rebels" - Ramsay gnomes often believe that the rebels of the human city-state are the culprits of all the riots, and all the bad situations occur because of these "spoilers" - except that the gnomes' icebreaker did see some wreckage belonging to monsters on the ice as it sailed into the port of Soft Maple. Therefore, I had to change my tune.

", let's go to that protruding headland now," after arguing with the fat mayor, Dara Potter immediately beckoned to his investigation team, "Check to see if the situation there is true, or if someone is doing something on purpose." ”

Before leaving, the master craftsman of Dwarf Island had reminded him that he had come to investigate Soft Maple City this time to control the storm mecha and not allow the Ramsay humans to use this "high-level war weapon" bought by the ancient gnomes at will. Another important task is to test through attacks to determine whether it is really the emperor who got out of trouble or a gimmick made up by the Ramsay people themselves.

To this end, their mission squad is not only equipped with the professions of the standard adventure team, but also has several magical artifacts to use as tools for temptation. Dallaport can't wait to test for himself if what the fat mayor said is true. But he didn't think about it at all, since he was in such a hurry, why did he actually organize the team members to play a card game just now?

Perhaps, this lack of self-control and concentration is the problem with Ramsay dwarfs. But they are completely unaware of this, and instead believe that this is the normal working condition of the dwarf race.

And now, with Dara Potter's order, a group of grumpy little guys immediately capped it.

They got into the vehicles they had used to travel, and after starting their engines, they drove towards the gate near the protruding headland of Soft Maple City. Fortunately, the gates are now guarded by a loosely disciplined steel fork battalion, not the Heyronis Paladins who like to admit death or the mercenaries who have formed a bond with the dwarf investigation team. Otherwise, another fierce infighting will break out in the city.

"It's really a strong spell fluctuation," Sitting at the front of the vehicle, after leaving the city gate, Dara Potter has been checking one of the detection instruments in his hand, and the pointer on it is swaying, "It is indeed a caster at the level of a raider." ”

Gradually, the illusionist suddenly felt that it was too hasty to go on such a hasty investigation, and after thinking about it, he grabbed a handful of fluorite powder from a small pocket on his body, and sprinkled it on the dwarfs' cars. Soon, the entire car, including the six members of the dwarf investigation team sitting in the car, disappeared in an instant.

"That should be the case. ”
