Chapter 036: City of Gray Dwarves

When the dust cleared, there was a large amount of blood on the ground, but the gray dwarf Legat was gone.

"Escaped?"

Gawain walked forward and quickly found the direction where the blood was spilled. It was not the foggy area, but far away from the fog, fleeing to the northwest.

Gawain hesitated when he saw this. The gray dwarf was just an intermediate wizard apprentice. He had just performed all three zero-ring magics he learned. He was not a big threat to him.

Now he was seriously injured again...

After thinking about it, Gawain felt that he could not miss this opportunity. He waved his hand:

"Chase!"

"Quack~~"

The two crows immediately shouted excitedly, flapped their wings and chased after him. Gawain followed closely, and the Skeleton No. 2, who was almost beaten to death, also followed slowly.

Tunnel after tunnel.

Caves.

Pillars after pillars.

Gawain chased after the blood trail for nearly two hours, but still failed to catch up with the gray dwarf Legat. However, he felt that the gray dwarf should not survive. The blood had flowed all the way. Even if he was not injured, he could not bear it, let alone a serious injury.

Gawain chased for a while, and when he walked out of a cave, his eyes suddenly opened up, and a huge space appeared in front of him.

Fluorescent moss.

Colorful mushrooms.

Wild beasts galloping.

Insects and birds chirping.

Further away, there was a city built with huge stones.

"City-state!"

Gawain's heart was shocked, and the cry of crows came from not far away:

"Quack quack quack ~~~"

Gawain hurried over and saw two crows circling around a figure lying on the ground. That person was the gray dwarf Legat, with two blood holes as big as a baby's fist on his back.

It was obvious that Gawain's [Five Consecutive Ice Arrows] was better and broke the opponent's [Earth Armor].

Legat was trying to raise his head, keeping the posture of crawling towards the distant city-state.

But... the blood had already dried up.

"You think too highly of yourself."

Gawain sneered and stepped on the gray dwarf's head into the soil.

He leaned over and searched the other person's body, but he didn't find anything at all, not even a magic stone, and even the mace he used before was lost somewhere.

"He should have hidden something on the way."

Gawain rubbed his chin, but had to give up. He had been chasing for more than ten miles, and there were too many places to hide things. Without his own guidance, he could not accept the inheritance of the gray dwarf.

Gawain stepped back two steps, and two crows quickly pounced on the corpse, competing to peck the gray dwarf's eyeballs and chirping happily.

"Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating."

"You've eaten so many eyeballs, but you haven't made any progress."

"A bunch of foodies."

Gawain angrily scolded the crows, kicked the gray dwarf's body into the pit next to him, and then turned his sight to the city-state in the distance.

After hesitating for a while, he led the two crows to the city-state.

After Gawain walked away, Skeleton No. 2 finally arrived late. It staggered into the pit, lay on the gray dwarf's body, tossed it, pulled out its tendons and disassembled its bones, and replaced its own broken bones with bloody bones.

Not long after.

Skeleton No. 2 climbed out of the pit neatly and chased Gawain. Several scavenging birds flew over, some scrambling for the body, and some simply flew to Skeleton No. 2's body and pecked at the meat cubes hanging on it.

About two quarters of an hour later, Gawain finally approached the city-state.

He saw "wild men" scattered in the wilderness outside the city-state. They were on all fours, with shackles on their feet, constantly searching in the wilderness, collecting mushrooms or mosses.

And around them, there were gray dwarf soldiers.

They rode on the backs of the wild men, waving whips, showing off their power. When they saw a wild man being lazy, they would whip him severely with the whip, making the wild man wail and scream, and roll on the ground.

The gray dwarf kept cursing:

"You lowly pigs don't even have the qualifications to walk upright."

"Beef offal, Master Aiden has taken a fancy to your sister, give her a bath today, wash her clean, I want to see her lying in my big tent at night, I will fiercely..."

"Get out of here, you dirty pig, stay away from Master Aiden."

Gawain stood there in a daze, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. His face was gloomy and terrible, and his heart was extremely angry, because he found that those "lowly pigs" were actually the same species as himself.

The gray dwarves actually treated the human race as slaves.

No.

They are far inferior to slaves!

At the same time, he also understood why the gray dwarf Legat wanted to ambush and kill him, because in the hearts of the gray dwarves, the lowly human race is not worthy of being a wizard apprentice.

"Pig!"

"Pig!"

"Pig!"

Gawain murmured in a low voice, walking towards the gray dwarf soldier Aiden step by step, his eyes becoming more and more terrifying.

"Hey, there's another pigman here?"

The gray dwarf soldier also found him, and rode on the four-legged wild man to meet him. He looked at Gawain like he was looking at goods, and laughed:

"Master Aiden is lucky today, he actually found such a clean pigman."

As he said this, he pointed with a long whip:

"Master Aiden orders you to stick your butt up...ah~~~"

Before he finished speaking, the furious Gawain had already raised his right hand and squeezed it hard at the gray dwarf. The gray dwarf immediately held his head and screamed, with a horrified expression on his face.

Gawain clenched his right hand, and his invisible palm tightly grasped the head of the gray dwarf.

"Ah~~~"

The gray dwarf screamed in a series of screams, and his short body was lifted up into the air little by little. The people around him were stunned. They looked at him stupidly, at a loss.

It was like seeing an incredible scene.

"Die!"

Gawain clenched his right fist hard, and the gray dwarf's head exploded in the air. The headless body fell to the ground like a rag doll, twitching constantly.

"Ah~~~"

The people around him screamed in fear. They got on all fours and fled madly towards the city-state. The embarrassing scene was really like a herd of free-range pigs.

In a blink of an eye, there was no one.

Gawain was stunned, and his heart was filled with sorrow. He looked around and finally saw a person who stayed behind. That was a poor guy who was unable to move after being whipped by the gray dwarf Aiden.

Gawain walked over, and the other person immediately curled up in fear. Because he was covered in black and skinny, Gawain couldn't even tell whether he was a man or a woman.

"What's your name?"

"How old are you this year?"

"Why did you appear underground?"

"......"

Gawain asked again and again, but the other person just curled up, buried his uneasy eyes deep in his chest, and didn't say a word, which made him helpless.

Gawain thought about it, opened the crocodile leather box, picked a piece of white bread from the food tree, and handed it over.

"Gudu~~"

The other person smelled the wheat fragrance, looked around secretly, and when he saw the white bread, he carefully reached out to take it, then grabbed it and bit it like a beast.

After eating the bread, Gawain obviously felt that the other person relaxed a lot.

He repeated:

"What's your name?"

After a while, a hoarse and awkward male voice finally sounded, stumbling:

"Old...Old...Rat Shit."

"..."

Gawain was speechless for a while, and threw a piece of white bread to the other party, who immediately hid it in his arms. He pointed to the city-state in the distance and asked again:

"Do you know where that is?"

"Gray...Gray Dwarf...City."

"How many people like you are there?"

"People?"

"No, Pig Man!"

"A lot."

"Tell me about the situation in the Gray Dwarf City."

"Many...many powerful Gray Dwarves...gorgeous residences...fragrant food...spears...armor...city lord Gu'ant...hero Lu'anke..."

Rat Shit spoke intermittently, and there was no specific data, only some vague adjectives. However, Gawain still learned some useful information and knew that there were two heroes in the [Gray Dwarf City].

One is the city lord Gu'ant.

The other is the hero Lu'anke.
