The dwarven army completely swept away the dark abyss before withdrawing mightily.

The dwarves are optimistic in nature, and after another big victory, the whole journey back is filled with the dwarves' rough, loud singing and laughter.

In the joyful atmosphere, Arthur was in a lonely and gloomy mood. Arthur had been unsure whether he really loved Lingyu before this, because of the impulse in the dark abyss under special circumstances, and because he was immersed in the love of men and women in the following days.

It wasn't until the moment Ling Yu cried away that he confirmed that he loved that woman, because he felt that something was suddenly missing from his life. It was supposed to be at that point in her life, and now she's gone.

The same is probably true of love in mortal worlds, love never needs any reason, fate is here, and the half of life is destined to belong to you.

Joan came over and hugged Arthur, "Don't be sad, wait until we get Grantham and the Empress first, and then sweep the Church of Light, and then I will accompany you to break through the orc temple and retrieve the spirit feather!"

"Get out!"

"I know it may be a bit difficult, but there is hope in the end, what if it happens!"

"I'm telling you to get out of the way because you're not used to being held by men. ”

Joan suddenly grabbed Arthur's hand and looked at him affectionately, "Arthur, I found that you have changed, since you met Lingyu, you actually began to dislike me, don't you remember the good times when the two of us slept in the same bed?"

Arthur shuddered, goosebumps on his body, and he pushed Joan away, "I want to throw up, don't splash on you." ”

Let Joan mess around with this also pulled Arthur out of his previous low mood. Arthur tried not to let himself think about Lingyu anymore, but the responsibility on his shoulders was one more heavy, and that was to bring Lingyu back.

The dwarven song suddenly stopped, and the dwarven army, which had been marching slowly, suddenly accelerated, and the dwarven cavalry had even urged the mountain demon lizard to start galloping.

Arthur will find the Dwarven King and Shalene again, and how can there be their shadows in the entire army?

Arthur grabbed a dwarf running by, "What's wrong?"

"We just received the news that Earthfire Fort has been attacked, and we need to rush back immediately!" the dwarf replied quickly and continued to run.

Arthur was stunned on the spot, the Earth Fire Fort was attacked? Which race was attacked? You must know that the Earth Fire Fort is deep underground, and there are only two entrances to the east and west to enter the Fort of the Furnace, it is really easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are no hundreds of thousands of troops who don't want to attack the Fort at all!

"I'll rush back to help! Arthur retrieved the Flying Ring from Joan, and flew to Earth's Fort in a hurry.

The reason why Arthur was so anxious was because he had a faint uneasiness in his heart. This attack on the Dark Abyss was generally too smooth, and the forbidden spell-level seals on the periphery of the Dark Abyss were obviously set by someone, but until all the necromantic creatures in the Dark Abyss were completely cleaned, and the people behind them did not appear, could it be that the other party's purpose was the Earth Furnace Castle?

Arthur galloped all the way back to Fort Earth, but when he returned to the West Gate, he found no signs of battle. The number of dwarven warriors guarding the entrance was obviously several times larger than usual, but because he knew Arthur, he did not stop him from entering.

Instead, Arthur stopped and asked the guard captain of the dwarves, "Didn't you say that Fort was attacked by the enemy?"

"The enemy had come in from the east gate and had now withdrawn. ”

"Withdrawn?" Arthur wondered even more, "who attacked the Forge?"

"We didn't see any attacking enemies either, supposedly some powerful men in black. The captain of the dwarves replied truthfully.

"The man in black?" Arthur, who didn't get an answer, walked inside full of confusion.

There were no signs of large-scale battles in the Fort of Earthfire, and it was only in the area near the crater that blood stains and many covered corpses were found on the ground.

Arthur lifted the white cloth on a corpse, and the fatal wound was a small hole in the throat, which was fatal with a blade such as a sword or spear.

Arthur examined several corpses in succession, all of them were fatal wounds from a single blow at the vital point, and very few had a second wound on his body.

This is not at all an open wound that the two armies should have when fighting each other, it is more like a raid and assassination, and the one who does it is more like a killer than a warrior.

Thinking of the killer, and then thinking of a few key words such as the man in black and the rapier, Arthur's cold sweat flowed down instantly.

The "Divine Judgment", which has not appeared for a long time, has reappeared, and if it is because of the disaster he has brought to the dwarven kingdom, Arthur will not be able to sleep.

"Where's the King?" asked Arthur, grabbing a dwarven warrior collecting corpses, he was now desperate to see the Dwarven King, and he had to tell him everything he knew.

"On the bottom platform of the lava lake. ”

Arthur didn't even think about why the Dwarven King was on the ground floor platform now, and went straight to the lower passage. Unexpectedly, at the entrance of the ground floor platform, Arthur was stopped by the dwarven warriors guarding it, and there were nearly a hundred dwarven warriors standing here, and all of them were high-level dwarven warriors.

"You can't go over!"

"I have important things to tell the king of Ulan. ”

"The king has decreed that no one should enter until he comes out. ”

"And Professor Shalene is with the King?"

"No comment. "The guards are still not accommodating.

Arthur was so anxious that he couldn't break through, and finally shouted loudly in a hurry, "Professor Shalene, Professor Shalene!"

The guards were about to stop Arthur from shouting when one of the king's guards ran over, "The king let him in." ”

After stepping onto the platform below, Arthur was stunned by the tragic scene before him. There are countless corpses of dwarven warriors on the platform, and there are also a small number of corpses of men in black, and it seems that this is the main battlefield for the two sides.

When he saw the corpses of those men in black, Arthur confirmed his guess that it was the killer of "Divine Punishment"!

To Arthur's surprise, neither the Dwarf King nor Professor Shalene were on the underlying platform, but in the lava lake below.

In the center of the lava lake, a circular stone platform of nearly 100 square meters appeared, the stone platform was only four or five meters higher than the surface of the lava lake, and the heat on it was extremely hot, and the burst magma bubble splashed on the edge of the stone platform a little larger.

Arthur has been cultivating on the bottom platform for more than half a year, but he has never found this stone platform in the lava lake, which was obviously hidden by the dwarves with a special mechanism before.

"Can you come here?" Professor Shalene shouted at Arthur from the stone platform.

"Yes. ”

"Then come up yourself. ”

Arthur flew onto the stone platform in the lava lake, and as soon as his feet hit the ground, he immediately covered his whole body with fighting energy, otherwise it would only take a few moments to be roasted by the heat.

The dwarven king's face was full of rage, and in front of him was a crimson stone pillar that rose in the center of the stone platform, with a hollowed-out hole in the pillar, more like a reserved storage compartment.

"Your Majesty, I know who the invading enemy is?"

The Dwarven King turned and looked at Arthur in surprise.

"Those men in black are killers from 'Divine Judgment'. ”

The Dwarven King gritted his teeth and nodded.

Arthur bowed his head deeply, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, I brought disaster to the dwarven kingdom, and the killers of the 'Divine Judgment' came to kill me. ”

"No, those killers have nothing to do with you. Professor Salene said suddenly.

"Not looking for me?" Arthur was stunned for a moment.
