Chapter 16: On the Old Land (3)
If the soldiers could be driven away, the dream of the local dwarves at the bottom of the rock, they would be able to return to the "sweet", free, lawless life they had before.
As a result, these superficially obedient Dwarves began to plot how to get rid of them soon after they entered Rock Bottom City. The local dwarves at the bottom of the rock, under the command of the King, secretly dug a hole in the wall of the room where Blotto lived, so that they could eavesdrop on the dwarves' plans beforehand.
From this, the king knew that these dwarves, like him, were afraid of the dark elves underground, those who had intended to conquer them, but were "repulsed" by their hero Ugart.
The dwarves were almost always in fear, fearing that Drow would find out where they were and strike at their small force.
During his long reign, King McLeder stumbled upon an unknown gap in the "palace" of the Rock Bottom, connecting a long, eerie underground passage that led to the Dark Web Lands, the realm of the Dark Elves.
Of course he had been there once, and it was the furthest and most adventurous journey he had ever had, and when he was lucky enough not to be wiped out by the mushrooms or other monsters underground, he was lucky enough to see the Dark Elves who were training for hiking.
The drows' silver-gray hair and fluttering cloaks stood out in the light of the beautiful river underground, and for this reason, the then drunken King McLedt was so frightened that he immediately woke up, ran along the road he came, and fled back to the rock city in a panic, and closed the gap.
It wasn't until a long time later, and no drow came out of there, that King McLeder was sure that no one knew about the gap. The Dwarves at the bottom of the rock, though mostly stupid, have a very good memory of what they have experienced, and easily do not forget anything they have seen.
So, when King McLede learns that the glacier dwarves are just as afraid of the drow as he is, he quickly comes up with a wonderful solution.
After making sure that his right-hand man remembered the exits and passages, he poked at the other man and said gloomily, "You. Go, tell the dark elves that the dwarves are going to deal with them......"
Not long after this happened, when Dara and the others were attacked by the Marquis of Feld at night. The city of Rock Bottom has also undergone great changes.
A group of Drow appeared at the camp without warning, slaughtering the two dwarven-led human soldiers, and the surviving soldiers soon realized that their worst fears had happened, and that their group's whereabouts had been learned by the dark elves. That's why they were attacked.
Blotto also knew that the local Dwarves at the bottom of the rock had turned against each other at a critical moment, and knew that the chaos was caused by these stupid guys, and knew that the city was no longer a safe place for them, so he had to lead the rest of the men and horses away, intending to return to Stanley to join Darra.
However, halfway through, they unexpectedly meet the immortal dwarf Bodina and the dwarf Tangier at the bottom of the rock, and they learn that Darla's troops have also been attacked by the human marquis and have become illegal rebels.
For this reason, Blotto and the others will stay at the junction of the Land of Dust and the Karinshan region, hesitating.
"I see. Darla said. Looking around, he was looking for Bowdinah and Tangier, who he had thought had died in the chaos of the night attack.
"Don't look for it," Todak stabbed Dala "over there." ”
Dara looked in the direction of Todak's finger and couldn't help but be stunned to see that the two little ones were being held firmly by a two-headed giant, one in each hand, and caught under their armpits.
The dwarf's head kept shaking, and he saw Dara from afar. He shouted happily, "Darrah, Darra, tell them to let me down!" and the dwarf at the bottom of the rock was so frightened that he stopped and closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.
"What's going on?" said Darrah, looking at the approaching two-headed giant, one of his heads glaring at Dara with his eyes open and the other in a slumber of sleep.
Blotto clapped his palms. Commanded, "Let them down!" ”
The two-headed giant, known as "Kruru", immediately obeyed Blotto's orders and lowered Bowdina and Tangier to the ground. Then he walked up to Broto, waiting for his master's next command, and his ugly face showed a fierce and faithful expression like that of a dog.
"Darla, it's great to see you again. Long story short, though. You must now want to know who this monster is, it's Broto's pet. It is said that he was rescued from the arena by Blotto while he was shopping for equipment at the port of Carinshan. Have you ever heard the story of the bard's 'snow-white tiger teeth'? The two-headed giant is like the rescued wolfdog, he only listens to Broto. The language style of Bao Di did not change much, but after the greetings, he suddenly found that among Darla's troops, there were also his old friends Pixiu and other dwarfs, and he immediately happily joined his friends.
Dara looked at the two-headed giant, who stood beside Blotto like an iron tower.
"What does he usually eat?" asked Darrah cautiously, as far as he knew, human flesh was a rare delicacy for many two-headed giants.
"Eat meat. "Don't worry, he won't even dare to eat the horses in the camp without my orders." ”
"If you're not ......"
"Look at this when I'm not around. Blotto said, turning to the two-headed giant and saying, "Kruru, call your brother up." ”
Kruru nodded, then reached out and punched the sleeping head next to him, the other party opened his eyes in surprise, rubbed the beaten part with his hand, and asked, "Kruru, what are you doing?"
"The boss called you. Kruru replied, yawning, and soon closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The head that was woken up looked at Blotto, with the same faithful but gentle and shy expression, and said, "Chief, what are your orders?"
"Meet my friend, Darrah. "Dara, this is Rookke. ”
Dara looked at Rukke, and then at Ruru, who was already asleep at this time, and felt that the two of them were still relatively easy to distinguish, at least, Lukke's head was slightly smaller.
In fact, in the process of getting along with each other later, he found that the personalities of these two heads were completely different. This is also completely different from most brainless two-headed giants, and Rooker is the best among giants, which is not to say that his ability to throw stones or brute force is higher than other giants, but his intelligence level is not too low.
And, most importantly, Lukke is a vegetarian. (To be continued.) )
