Chapter 6: Friends and Foes (1)
Herbert region, Jugmy Hill.
Both Dara and Lina had left the gnomes' weapons testing room unharmed, and were placed in the reception room to await the results.
The gnomes need to make a detailed and complete investigation of the recent explosion in the testing chamber, and then discuss whether the accident is related to Darla, an outsider, before deciding whether he will stay or not. Thanks to Lina's assurance, Dara was not invited to the gnomes' prison. In this regard, Pixiu, who has been by Darra's side all the time, seems to be a little disappointed.
"It's a shame for you not to be able to see our prison system. "It's a fairly well-established system, and no prisoner has ever managed to escape from prison, even if he's the most lock-picking dwarf or halfling." ”
Dara walked around the reception room with some anxiety, he had been trapped in the gnomes' reception room for days, and he knew nothing about the outside world.
At this point, his primary concern was how Miyali's injuries were going and whether things were going well in the training camp.
But after hearing Pixiu's words, Dara couldn't help but feel a little interested, and asked, "Is it true that no prisoner has ever escaped from your prison?"
"Oh, yes, there are escaped prisoners everywhere, but with us, they won't succeed. ”
Is it really that amazing?
Dara thought that if even dwarfs and halflings could not escape from a prison, then the prison would be "impregnable". If you apply it to military defense......
Dara stumbled and almost didn't fall, and this sudden thought made him suddenly take a huge interest in the dwarf's invention.
Dara needs to know what exactly is the prison system in Pixiu's mouth about, and how does it work?
"Can you take me to see your prison?" Dara asked, pausing abruptly, looking at Pixiu.
"Yes, but you have to stay in prison until you're allowed to leave. ”
"This ......" Dara hesitated for a moment, then nodded sharply. said, "Good!"
"What?" called out Lina, who had gone to great lengths to keep Dara in a place like the reception room, which was not too annoying and depressing, and Dara was actually embarrassed by the dwarf's two words. threw himself into the net and was willing to go to prison. Is he crazy?
Pixiu was happy, and even took Dalara's hand with some gratitude, and his affection for this human man was even greater. Because, this is for so long. For the first time, he successfully lobbied outside guests to visit their prison system.
It was a system that the gnomes were quite proud of, but it was never known, on the contrary, their crystal ore, "automatic elevators", etc., these crude discoveries, inventions, etc., were widely disseminated. This frustrated the gnomes who were involved in the design and development of the prison system in the first place. Pixiu is also one of them. Now that someone volunteered to see the fruits of their efforts, Pixiu was very excited.
After applying, Pixiu got permission to show Dara around their prison system, provided that Darla was not allowed to leave for the time being.
Walk on the road to the Gnome Prison. Dara wondered if she had done the right thing. He wasn't worried about being trapped for a long time this time, because before leaving, he had repeatedly told Lina to find a way to get him out of the dwarf's prison as soon as possible.
Although Lina was extremely angry and puzzled by his actions, she agreed to Darla.
Dara knew that since Lina had promised him, she would be able to do this. With her experience in dealing with gnomes in the dwarfs, she must have known what to do.
At this point, Dara thought. Is it right to covet the dwarfs' inventions and use them in other ways?
Recall the big explosion in the weapons test room that day. Dara still haunts her. If that power is also used in warfare, the side that gains the power is tantamount to having a mage who can cast huge fireballs, and this mage will not get tired and can be mass-produced. The future war will open a new page because of this.
He was excited about the idea. And shuddering.
The same excitement and shivers flowed through Puno.
At this time, Puno had already arrived outside the castle of Sarah, staring at the gate of the castle and letting out bursts of piercing sneers. His laughter startled a crow in the trees outside the castle and Duke Sara from his sleep, and a great sense of foreboding quickly took over all of his consciousness. It was a feeling he had never felt before. However, after seeing the samurai swarming in from outside the door, the duke's uneasiness turned into great unhappiness.
"What's going on out there?" said the Duke, frowning.
"Yes, a madman. The samurai leader replied palely, and the duke's displeasure made him feel greatly uneasy.
But the men who had been sent out to inquire only went outside to take a look, and then quickly ran back, as if they had encountered a reaper who had just escaped from hell.
"It's too noisy. The Duke said.
"Yes, yes," the samurai leader replied with a nodding bow and a glance at his samurai, "We'll deal with it right away." ”
A column of samurai quickly and silently exited the duke's chamber and ran outside, but they were still halfway through when they encountered an unexpected change.
The mage, who had laughed outside the door at first, had now entered the castle and slid through the castle like a ghost, and at the same time his fingers flew and sent out deadly death rays at every living creature he saw, and the magic circle that Kesotipon had arranged in the castle was as vulnerable as a child's toy in front of this mysterious visitor, and soon lost its effectiveness and was completely destroyed.
At this point, the busy servants and the soldiers in charge of the guard began to scream and flee for their lives. The grim reaper's mage was so quick that every time he stretched out his hand and pointed, a smoking corpse fell. The well-trained warriors had become charred corpses before they could approach the mage.
The rumours resounding from inside the castle confirmed the sense of foreboding in Duke Sarah's heart, and although he did not know what was going on outside, he knew that no one could trespass into the castle that passed through the magical enchantment under Kesotypunbu without amazing abilities. The magic of this uninvited guest must still be above that of Kesothipun!
Therefore, although Duke Sara did not witness the terrible situation outside, he had already made a quick decision, and under the escort of the samurai leader and the remaining samurai, he did not have time to change his clothes, so he hid in his pajamas and hid in the secret passage that he had prepared a long time ago, and hurriedly sneaked towards the outside of the castle.
At the same time, the Duke of Sara also quickly opened the magic amulet prepared for him by the family magician Kesotipun, hoping that Kesotipun would come as soon as he received the message. (To be continued.) )xh:.74.240.212
