Section 4 Dwarf Rose

Rose was depressed, and his comfortable life was gone. Rose remembers the excitement of discovering the Iron King. Running from house to house, after tea and dinner, people were full of joy when they talked, and the whole dungeon was smashed with happiness by the big pie falling from the sky.

But this happiness soon burst like a soap bubble. The disillusionment was so sudden, so completely disillusioned, that it did not leave people with a trace of illusion.

――――

Half a month ago, Ross picked up the hammer as usual and joined the vigorous mining campaign. The queue was very long, and almost the whole village was dispatched from men and women, young and old. If nothing else, they all want to see the King of Iron Spirits. A fire dragon entered the pit in a majestic manner, which was very spectacular.

Like other dwarven villages, the village of El lives close to the mines. Dwarves are born builders, carvers, and alchemists. The presence of such pure iron ore in the vicinity of their habitat is extremely satisfying for the villagers of El Village, allowing them to craft their favorite weapons with impunity.

Because of the superiority of the raw materials, the starting point of the weapon is higher. The weapons produced in the village of El are well-known in the dwarven world.

The life of the dwarves is very monotonous, and every day they take enough raw materials from the mine to open a furnace to create a satisfactory weapon. Then drink the mellow wheat wine with the smell of sweat, brag with friends, and talk about the latest masterpieces, which will make them live every day to the fullest.

The village of El has existed in this way for hundreds of years. It wasn't until the recent discovery of such a treasure trove of iron in a nearby mine that people understood why their own mine produced more pure iron than any other mine.

The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. While the news of the El Village was tightly sealed, the whole village was excited to participate in the visit and worship of the Iron Spirit King. Only by protecting the King of Iron Spirits can the village of El be passed on for a longer time.

Where blessings and misfortunes lurk, and where misfortunes and blessings depend. The happy people did not realize that the disaster was coming, it came so quickly, so suddenly, that it was impossible to prevent it. The festive rally turned into a purgatory on earth.

――――

The people lined up in an orderly manner, and the procession assembled from the square, marched all the way, and turned back after worshipping the King of Iron Spirits.

Looking at the returning clan's eyes full of essence and sparkle, Rose's expectation was even heavier. But due to the rules of the village, he had to line up at the end of the line, moving slowly as the line moved forward.

As the leader of the younger generation in the village, Rose is deeply respected by the elders in the village, whether it is a powerful force or a superb refining weapon, and regards it as the hope of the future of the village. But after all, he is young, and the hundred-year-old Rose may be called a high lifespan among the human race, but in the El Village, where the average life expectancy is six hundred years old, Rose is an out-and-out small character.

After a long wait, Rose finally saw the treasure of his dreams. In the center of the pool, the ordinary diamond-shaped boulder without any brilliance was so dazzling and soul-devoting to the eyes of these exquisite refiners.

Rose was deeply infatuated with it and couldn't help himself. But reason prevented him from further impulsive, and Rose knew in his heart that this was the common wealth of his clan, and as long as he did not reach the Grandmaster level refining master for a day, he would not be eligible for such a treasure for a day.

Just by looking at the walls of the stone chamber where the boulder is located are so tight and smooth, you know the value of the King of Iron Spirits. Rose had never seen such an exclusive treasure, and he had actually pressed impure objects and low-quality iron essence far away, squeezing them into a wall.

Rose sighed in his heart, secretly cheered up, and looked forward to the future. But the future is cruel, at least the next future can be said to be the biggest nightmare in Rose's life, leaving a shadow that he can't wave away for a long time.

――――

Rose quietly watched Dashi, completely ignoring the urging of the crowd behind him to complain, but it was precisely because he did not leave for a long time that he saved his life.

There was a sudden commotion in the departing crowd, and the procession was no longer as orderly as it used to be, and the scattered crowd began to run in all directions. Screams, shouts, and roars came and went.

Ross reluctantly retracted his gaze and looked at the source of the riot. The torches in the distance were messy, and people panicked like ants on a hot pot. The sound is chaotic and noisy, and if you listen closely, you can faintly distinguish the monsters, warriors, escorting women and children away, and so on. Ross felt a pang in his heart, knowing that something big must have happened ahead.

The village of El occupies the largest mine in this hill, and it is its domain for hundreds of miles. In the caves dozens of miles away from the hills occupied by El Village, there were several small groups of demonic beasts. Among them, the caveman is the most dangerous and has the most violent temperament. But because of the distance, the crowd did not take it to heart. The two sides have lived together peacefully for a hundred years and have been peaceful. However, all this changed with the mining of iron ore.

As one of the largest groups of mid-level demonic beasts, cavemen are very aggressive. They have a strange hobby, probably due to the lack of digestion in the stomach and intestines, and every once in a while, they need to swallow some iron ore to help them digest. And the higher the level of the caveman, the greater the demand.

As the mines in El Village continue to be excavated, the tunnels become more and more dense. The dark tunnels crisscross like spider webs. Inadvertently, some caves will be dug through. This will inevitably cause the village of El to intersect with the demonic beasts in other caves.

At the beginning, everyone desperately suppressed, repelled a few scattered demonic beasts, and then closed the cave. But over time, there are more and more such closed caves. The original peaceful life of the Warcraft was broken by the dwarves, and it became more and more impatient.

In this gathering, the whole village gathered people from Aier Village to go deep into the tunnel. But on the way back, a tightly sealed cave collapsed, and the huge hole was as terrifying as a demon's throat. After the thick dust cleared, the tide of cave beasts surged out, drowning everyone on the return journey for a while.

Suddenly encountered, the people of El Village rose up to resist. However, the cavemen ignored any terrain and could launch three-dimensional attacks and defenses on the ground, rock walls, or hanging in the air, and the number of people engaged in combat was as many as three times that of them. The crowd was outnumbered, and they were crushed back by life.

――――

Rose's eyes were red, and he tried to push everyone away and go to the front several times, but he was ruthlessly squeezed back by the surging tide of withdrawn women and children. Watching the clansmen in front of him fall one after another, Rose grinned in anger and wanted to fly forward.

"Rose, take the people under the age of 100 and retreat to the stone room!" the village chief in front of him shouted when he saw that he was unable to do anything.

"No, I'm going to fight with everyone!" replied Rose.

"This is an order! Don't you obey my words?" the village chief's voice was fierce, and his whole body exuded a majesty that had been in the top position for a long time.

Rose pursed her lips, her snow-white teeth clattering. After pondering for a moment, Rose turned abruptly and left with the young man beside him. But no one saw that Rose's hands and closed lips were already dripping with blood. A sense of powerlessness and hatred suddenly came over my heart.

Rose fought and retreated, slaying several cavemen who attempted to sneak up on the way. Fortunately, the high-level demonic beasts have been blocked by the elders in the rear, and the cavemen who have broken through the defense line sporadically are just ordinary strength, but these middle-level demonic beasts are enough for Rose to drink a pot.

Everyone finally retreated to the stone chamber safely, but before they could catch a few more breaths, the sound of the fight quietly approached. The sound of gold and stone, the sound of biting, and the sound of sorrow seemed to explode in the ears. Rose secretly hated in his heart, "Dead beast, it's coming so quickly! I don't know if the village chief is okay at this time." ”

There was no time to think much about the situation of everyone in the rear, and Rose hurriedly organized a defensive detachment. Ross is domineering, and as the leader of the younger generation in the village, everyone regards him as an ideal candidate for the future village head, and there is no one. This shows the prestige of Ross among the younger generation.

――――

After a while, everyone quickly assembled. Except for the elderly and their babies, there was no escape. Looking at this mixed team, Rose's heart turned upside down. This is the hope of Zuihou in the village, and it will not be used lightly unless it is absolutely necessary.

The scene outside the stone chamber was like purgatory. Splashes of blood, pulpy-white brains, severed limbs, flowery stomachs and intestines abounded, and the sound of killing was endless. Rose's heart sank like the sea.

It seems that today is inevitable, and the caveman beast, which is several times its size, will never rest on its laurels after paying such a price. Destroying and being destroyed will be the only option between the two.

"Today, the village of Ayr is facing its biggest crisis since its founding. You are the most valiant warriors in the village, and we need our protection when the enemy is approaching. Can we let them be so arrogant, can we let them kill our loved ones behind us, can we let them destroy our proud century-old home?" Rose shouted angrily with a wave of his hand.

"No!no!no!" the crowd frantically brandished their axes and hammers.

"Then how should we respond to the enemy's provocation? I don't know the rest, but I myself will fight to the end without moving!"

"Fight, fight, fight!" Countless angry shouts were intertwined and superimposed, extremely tragic and magnificent, soaring into the sky.

――――

The defensive line in the rear finally couldn't withstand the onslaught of the cave beasts, and Huo Ran collapsed. The caveman roared, clawing at the final line of defense that Rose had laid out.

"Ready...... Throw the axe!" Rose snapped. Countless short axes sank into the troglodyte beast army like chainsaws, and suddenly brought a big storm of blood.

The caveman was not intimidated by the sudden blow. After the beasts in front of them withstood the baptism of the axe rain, the beasts behind surged up like a stacked wave. After a while, the two armies intersected and began a brutal hand-to-hand encounter.

Rose could no longer care about the rest of the group. He held a double axe and opened his bow left and right, and the blood rain flew everywhere he passed, and the screams continued.

Watching his former clansmen fall one by one, Rose could no longer maintain his usual calm. All the way to the lonely deep, double axes dance up and down, encounter beasts and cut beasts, Buddha should kill Buddha. Covered in blood, like the god of war.

I don't know how long the battle lasted, and Rose couldn't remember how many times he fought in and out of the herd. Rose only knew that there were fewer and fewer people around him, and the battle was gradually withering.

Rose's hands were numb, and he mechanically slashed the demonic beasts that approached him one by one. He was physically and mentally exhausted, his eyes were bloodshot, his consciousness was slowly drowsy, and he continued to kill completely on instinct.

Behind him, hurried footsteps rang out. Rose was furious in his heart, let out a loud shout, turned and jumped out, holding his twin axes high and slashing into the air like the gods of war of the Nine Heavens. A violent backlash caused Rose to crash back. After stumbling a few steps, just standing firmly, he suddenly felt a pain in his neck, his eyes were black, his whole body was stiff, and he fell straight to the ground......
