The Warcry Tribe's escape was finally over, and Marlowe crawled weakly on the back of the Kodomon, allowing the big creature to carry himself through the pass leading to the Chariot Mountains.

The Chariot Mountains and the Silver Lake Grassland are closely connected, but the climate is completely different, the grassland is bitterly cold, the clouds cover the sky, and the snow is constantly falling as if the whole world is about to freeze the whole world into ice. The Chariot Mountains are warm as spring, and the vegetation is still luxuriant, and of course, according to the geographical point of view, it is just autumn here, and it is a good time for the harvest.

After walking a few hundred meters, Marlowe was stopped by five dwarven warriors armed with large shields and spears.

Five dwarves surrounded the Kodomon from the front and back, the weapons in their hands locked onto the heads of Marlo and Kodomon, and whenever they made any unusual moves, the dwarves' weapons would be stabbed out mercilessly.

"Pochi, go tell the chief that we've captured another intruder!" The dwarf who faced Marlowe gave orders to his subordinates, he was the leader of the five-man team, and he had been patrolling his subordinates for the past two days.

Since hundreds of orcs entered the Chariot Mountains yesterday, the king of the Chariot Dwarf Kingdom has urgently dispatched 8,000 warriors from all over the country to this pass, plus the 3,000 defenders who have been stationed here for a long time, more than 40% of the entire country's troops will be gathered here.

Because in the past, when the cold winter was coming, the orc tribes were all going to invade the human kingdom, but this year, before the heavy snow sealed the pass, hundreds of orcs forcibly entered the chariot mountain range, and this news was immediately taken seriously as soon as it reached the royal city. The king and his ministers feared an orc invasion this year, so they sent troops to strengthen the defenses, and the king himself came here with griffons to inspect the work.

Marlowe looked at the dwarves calmly, there was no fear on his face, but the Kodo beast under him didn't like this atmosphere very much, it shook its neck slightly, and the hot air in its nose sprayed directly into the face of the dwarf captain in front of him.

The dwarf with the beard and the braid looked up and warned, "Intruder, take care of your mount, or I'll make it into a kebab!"

"I beg your pardon, it's a little nervous. Marlowe struggled to stand up and explained. "Can I come down? I want to leave him alone to eat some grass, which will help ease his mood. ”

The dwarven captain hid behind the huge shield and thought for a moment, then said, "Yes, but you have to hand over your weapons." ”

Marlowe slowly climbed off his mount, he was now so exhausted that he nearly fell when he landed. Marlowe patted the Kodomon on the back after standing firm, and the big guy obediently stepped aside to graze.

The four dwarves took a few steps forward, firmly enclosing Marlowe in the center, and the dwarven captain asked, "What's your name?"

"Marlo Vivia Warcry Durontan, you can call me Marlowe. ”

"Your name is a long one. The dwarf tapped on his helmet in frustration, apparently failing to remember Marlowe's full name. "That...... Horse...... Marlowe, please surrender your weapons now, and don't do anything that would cause us to misunderstand. ”

Marlowe cooperatively removed his longbow and elven sword, and a dwarven warrior with a beard braided into many pigtails immediately took two weapons from Marlowe's hand, and he wanted to hang them on his body but found that the longbow was as long as his height, so he had to put it behind him.

"May I sit down?" Marlowe asked the captain of the dwarves.

The dwarf nodded and warned, "Feel free to do so, just don't think about running away, we'll watch you." ”

The four dwarves watched Marlowe faithfully carry out his mission, and Marlowe also cooperated to sit on the ground with his eyes closed, he was too tired and needed a rest, even if it was only for a few minutes.

The dwarven warrior Pochi, who had delivered the message, ran back after a while: "Captain Zhuo Gang, the commander wants us to escort him to the barracks. ”

Zhuo Gang struck the shield with the iron rod of his spear, and the thud immediately woke Marlowe up.

"Intruder, it's time to go. ”

"Oh, okay. What about my mount?" Marlowe rubbed his face vigorously, finally feeling a little clearer.

Big-nosed Pochi immediately said, "I'll just come." ”

As he spoke, he walked over to the Kodomon, who was quietly grazing on the side, and saw him whisper a few words in Kodomon's ear, and Kodomon followed him honestly.

"Pochi, what did you say to this big guy?" asked a dwarf curiously, knowing that the Kodomon who grew up in the steppes could not understand the dwarven language.

"I told it that if I came with me, there would be enough fruit and grass. Pochi smugly touched his rosacea, while Kodomon looked down and sniffed at him, as if looking for something.

"Come on, everybody knows that you touch your nose when you lie!" the dwarf ruthlessly exposed Pochi's lies.

"Shut up for me, hurry up and escort him back to the barracks. Zhuo Gang, as the captain, took out the majesty of the captain and ordered.

After walking on the road for ten minutes, and then crossing a stream into the jungle, it was not long before Marlowe was taken outside one of the dwarven barracks, hidden in a col, and it was impossible to find it when passing by the avenue.

The barracks has become a little old over the years, with thick moss on the walls, and even mushrooms growing in some wooden places. Bands of dwarven warriors came in and out of the barracks with torches,

Marlowe finally knew why the first time he passed through the pass, the two dwarven warriors at the checkpoint showed such nonchalant expressions, daring that the dwarven army had long been hiding in this mountain range, and could immediately launch a large-scale counterattack if there was a situation.

Passing through the barracks gate, Marlowe immediately saw Pinak and the others sitting in the barracks square.

"Look, everyone, Marlowe is back!" shouted Pinak, shaking his companion at his side, who was still used to calling Marlowe by his name.

"Chief, you're really back!"

"Are you alright, Chief?"

Everyone endured the pain and struggled to get around, but they were cut off by a huge metal cage welded to the ground. The designers of this barracks had apparently long thought about where to keep the captured orcs.

Zhuo Gang looked up at a half-breed beside him with some surprise.

"I didn't expect to catch a chief. ”

"It's only temporary. Marlowe smiled bitterly and didn't explain more.

"The chief also has a temporary one?" Zhuo Gang didn't quite understand what this meant, and he opened the cage and said. "You go to the rest meeting first, and I'll go tell the chief that we have a tribal chief here, and I think our chief will talk to you when he is done with the business at hand. ”
