readx;? The Baroque returns to the foothills of the Kundu Maya, and the pace of life of the gray dwarves continues as usual. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Although there is no need to be stuffy in the belly of the underground mountain and not see the light of day for thousands of years, with the character of the gray dwarf, he will not run around outside the mountain without being fine. Their greatest hobby is forging weapons and armor. Recently, a large number of people were taken away by Zainzu, and the patriarch of the old Saadin led the clansmen to start a vigorous operation to build weapons again.

No one pressed them, but the gray dwarves were so hungry and thirsty that they almost forgot to sleep and eat. Even when Baroque came to visit the cave in the belly of the Grey Dwarf Mountain, Saadin was a little reluctant to come out to greet him.

Baroque shook his head and smiled, it seemed that the gray dwarf's interest in forging and smelting was ingrained in his bones, and he couldn't change it. That's a good thing, though, because the weapons the Grey Dwarves build will eventually cost him less in the end.

"Baroque, all your people have moved to the big tribe of frostwolves in the horse farm, just leave only one army here, don't let those messy guys come here, okay?" Old Saadin began to complain when he saw Baroque: "Those guys are messy and noisy here every day, and even always come to us with their heads probed, which is very annoying."

。 I can tell you, if those guys come and sneak around again, our hammer will hit their heads. ”

Baroque apologized with some embarrassment. He knew the reason, because the small rock castle of the Blue Wolf Tribe left here was still spacious and dry, so it was used as a hoarding place for goods by the Baroque. When the Duchy of Hansa had not fallen out, all the trade materials with the Hansa humans were transferred here. Later, when those events happened, contact with Hansa was stopped by the Baroque. It's kind of severed this line. However, the land was not deserted, but was simply used by the Baroque to hoard salt from the Pelmo Salt Lake. Therefore, there are always many orcs of the Frostwolf Clan coming and going here.

Although they all knew that there was a tribe of gray dwarves living here, most of the frostwolf orcs had never seen it with their own eyes, and driven by curiosity, there would always be people who came to see the freshness. There is no malice. But the gray dwarves don't want to be seen like monkeys. That's why old Saadin complained to the Baroque.

It's just an episode, in fact, Saadin doesn't care too much about this. They were happy with their current life, with the orcs providing almost everything they needed to worry about food and even plenty of ale to drink. Although because of the falling out with the Duchy of Hanseas, the source of ale was cut off for a while. But then the Frostwolf Clan took over the human city of Shoton, and immediately had another source of ale. And it's better than the ale of the country like the Hanseatic one, and the good wine of the gray dwarf is almost full of praise.

An elite army of 5,000 people is stationed next to it all year round, with Zainzu as the commander, and under his command are the captains of five beast armored warriors. Such a powerful army was only to protect the safety of the Grey Dwarves, and the Baroque fully fulfilled its covenant with the Grey Dwarves. All the grey dwarves regard him as a brotherly friend. Otherwise, with the stubborn temperament of the dwarf. It's not something that can be bought with a little food and ale.

Baroque chatted with Saadin for a while, and Zaid, his son and the future patriarch of the gray dwarves, and Platon, the old dwarf, and his son Saab, also came to meet Baroque. It was then that Baroque revealed his purpose for coming here.

"What? are you going to get a totem pole in that cave hall?" Old Dwarf Platon's face instantly turned ugly! He was in a state of apprehension, when he and Baroque went to seal the destroyed star seal circle, his mind had been eroded by the dark power. Also hurt the Baroque. That experience was unforgettable, and it made Pradon extremely jealous and even afraid. I heard that Baroque was going to the sealed cavern hall, and even had to take out a totem pole with the core of an ancient tree of life. He immediately jumped out against it!

"No, I can't. Baroque, you don't know how terrifying the dark power of the seal below is, what if you take a totem pole core, what if the seal is broken again? If you take another core totem pole this time. So what to replace? The defensive circle has become fragile, and there is no guarantee that it will still work. ”

The Baroque had long known that it would be opposed by the Grey Dwarves. But he also had a reason to do so. Because the frostwolf tribe is preparing for the ceremony of sacrificing to the beast god, in order to achieve the goal of obtaining the power of the faith of the clansmen. The Baroque had to prepare the best sacrificial props...... What could be more perfect than a totem pole made from the core of the Tree of Life?

As for how to make the sealing circle work after taking the totem pole, Baroque also has a way. Although he no longer had a totem pole in his hand at this time, he did have the dragon skin scroll brought out of the ruins of King Maudun. There is the most incisive and profound description of the Star Totem Array, and Baroque finds that he may be able to take a temporary approach, using only five totem poles to exert the power of the seal in a short period of time, as long as the totem poles can be used up in time and put back, it should be foolproof.

After listening to Baroque's explanation, Pladon was still a little uneasy, but when he saw Baroque's firm expression, he knew that he couldn't persuade him.

"It's okay if you want to take the totem pole, but it's safe. Otherwise, if the dark forces rush out, our gray dwarf tribe will be finished!" Platon told again.

"Don't worry, we are allies in life and death

。 By my soul, how could I harm you?" Baroque said to the Grey Dwarves earnestly, "I will make sure that nothing goes wrong, and if there is even the slightest mistake, I will give up this idea." "Baroque is not joking, after all, the future development and expansion of the beast clan is inseparable from the logistics and weapon support of the gray dwarves no matter what.

Having reached an understanding, Baroque did not waste time, and immediately took his leave, entered the cavern passage, and hurried to the deepest cavern hall. Since the last time I came to rub all the vein carvings on the Mithril Pillar, the Cavern Hall has been sealed. The outer layer of defense, consisting of a team of gray dwarves and frostwolf warriors, rotates to patrol and guard all year round, and inside there is a solid steel fence defense, only Baroque has the key to it. But when the Baroque came here again after a long time, they were laughed at to find that the gray dwarves had added two iron gates made of rock and steel outside, which could be said to be strictly blocked to the limit.

Seeing Baroque coming, all the warriors saluted him, and then the captain of the dwarves of the guardian and the captain of the frostwolf warriors each took out a key and opened the two doors, and Baroque only entered by himself, and then turned back and ordered them to lock the door. Walking deeper, he soon reached the nearest steel gate, he took out his key to unlock it, and walked dozens of meters of rock path to enter the cave hall where the sealing star array was located.

As soon as he entered the hall, Baroque's brow furrowed suddenly, and his heart suddenly became vigilant. He now has more and more orc beliefs, coupled with the gradual increase in the amount of purple power in the soul sea, his own strength and touch are already extremely strong. In an instant, he sensed that there was a dark aura in this hall, although it was very faint and could not be detected by outsiders at all, but he could feel it.

The dark power seeped out!Baroque immediately looked at the sealing totem array composed of six Mithril pillars. The exterior is as intact as ever, and nothing unusual can be seen. He walked behind one of the Mithril Pillars and opened the back shell of the Mithril Pillar, which was inlaid with the totem pole he had made from the branches of the Tree of Life. At this time, several inconspicuous cracks cracked on that totem pole, and a small half of the magic circle patterns on the entire totem pole were destroyed.

No wonder the dark power seeped out, it seems that this totem pole can't replace the core totem pole of the Tree of Life after all! Fortunately, if he arrives in time, if it is delayed for a while, I am afraid that the entire totem pole will be completely shattered, and then the seal will be broken, and disaster will immediately befall the gray dwarves and orcs!

Baroque didn't want to mention how annoyed he was - he knew he couldn't take a core totem pole anyway, or the whole circle would collapse immediately. But he was not reconciled, and finally worked hard to this day, exhausted all means, and even told a lie to his people that he would never be able to tell. Finally let him enter the path to godhood that King Maudun had walked back then, how could he give up? But without the core totem pole as a medium, Baroque did not dare to guarantee that when the sacrifice to the beast god ceremony, he and the totem beast Rak would be able to perfectly reach the level of power transformation.

Crucially............ He needs to use a tree core totem array to build a simple magic circle to cover up his breath, otherwise such a big thing as the sacrificial ceremony, if the revealed aura of faith alarms some terrifying existence, everything that Baroque planned will undoubtedly be like the king of Maudun back then, and then what awaits him will be the overwhelming killing of the God of Light!

Baroque sat in the middle of the sealing circle, on the stone slab above the deep cavern that led to the existence of the dark forces underground. He had nothing to do, so he took out the dragon skin scroll left by King Maudun and looked through it boringly. The content in it has long been memorized, but there are a thousand means, and it is impossible without the core totem pole as a medium.

Suddenly, just when the Baroque spirit was a little sluggish, a dark force approached him, did not harm him, and sent him a message, communicating with him---"Young orc shaman, we meet again!

Baroque was all too familiar with this dark force, after all, he had already dealt with it twice. One was when he was sealed here, and the other was when he was in the elven misty forest, when he rescued the elven queen Silloria.

That's right, this dark existence is the eldest prince of the elven clan back then, the father of Siloria, and the spokesperson of the dark abyss!
