Liu Yifei was confused by the chaos in the dwarf village, when he suddenly heard loud shouts from behind him, and suddenly turned around, only to see a helmet dangling on his chest.
Following the helmet all the way down, Liu Yifei finally found the real owner. It turned out to be a neatly dressed bearded dwarf, who was holding a warhammer shield and staring at him warily.
"Um...are you calling me?" Liu Yifei asked, pointing to his nose.
"Nonsense, who else is a stranger here besides you? Tell me quickly, where are you from? Be careful, Lord Balder's hammer will smash your brains out," the bearded dwarf shouted in a muffled voice.
You know, even though all the confidential information was stolen, the other party identified him as a spy. The dwarf's hot temper was really not an exaggeration. As long as the atmosphere was tense, they really wanted to do whatever they wanted...
.
"This Balder warrior..."
"Hairless goblin, the person standing in front of you is the captain of the Bald Guards. I am the captain of the third patrol in this village." The dwarf waved his warhammer fiercely and roared.
"Okay, okay~ Captain Balder, is...your village chief George here? He knows me, I am his guest, he just left the village less than an hour ago, and he has something to do when he comes back now.
It can prove that I am not a spy."
"Chief George? Oh! How does that damn vampire look like a strong and brave dwarf warrior? He is simply a despicable and dirty vampire who disguised himself as a dwarf.
As the head of a village, he actually doesn't even let us drink wine. Without the company of fine wine, can a dwarf village still be regarded as a dwarf village? We are no longer in the mood to shout slogans when we are blacksmithing.
The most disgusting thing is that when I went to drink in his hotel, he actually asked for money from us brave guards who worked hard to protect the village. Damn it~ If it weren’t for the great elder protecting him, I would have smashed him to pieces with the war hammer in my hand.
of the brain”
When it came to old George, it seemed that the thunderous bearded dwarf in front of him became even more angry. While banging the shield in his hand with a war hammer, he roared at Liu Yifei with a voice loud enough to shatter the glass,
It seems like Liu Yifei is severely hearing-impaired...
It's just that although Liu Yifei nodded in agreement with the other party's complaints, he actually despised the other party's ignorance:
Yes, yes~ Let you alcoholic dwarves drink without restraint, then why don't you little guys just get drunk and die in your own wine glasses? And according to old George, it seems that the local food is not too much.
If you have a surplus and can make wine at will, are you all going to drink from the northwest wind?
Besides, you don’t have to pay to drink in a hotel...how novel~ The king of the most powerful kingdom in the human camp would not dare to do this to any hotel in his country, which is completely unreasonable and should not be done at all.
The law on mentally retarded people mentioned
The bearded dwarf in front of him not only thought of it, but also said it very naturally, which immediately made Liu Yifei admire him.
It also made Liu Yifei understand that in the face of alcohol, especially the best wine, not only the dwarf's defense power will be infinitely close to zero, but even the intelligence can instantly become unlimited...
"Uh... I'm talking about Captain Balder. Although I also want to hear more of your complaints about Mayor George, can you take me to him first? Let's take our time on the road.
It's okay." Seeing that the bearded dwarf in front of him seemed to have no end to his complaints, Liu Yifei couldn't help but interrupt him directly.
"Hmph~ Impatient little devil, hairless goblins are more educated than you. Come here, the tribesmen in the village are currently doing defense work to prevent monster invasion. That guy George should organize a defense at the entrance of the mine.
."
"Monster invasion? Where did the monsters come from in the village?" Liu Yifei followed the bearded Balder and walked toward the mine behind the village while watching the messy dwarfs coming and going around him.
"Of course we have cleaned up the monsters around the village early in the morning. The monsters this time are the ones that came out of the mine. I don't know what happened. Those underground monsters that came out of nowhere went berserk.
, even at the entrance of the mine, you can hear the roar of the monsters coming from below." Balder said angrily.
"The monster under the mine? Could it be that..."
"What? You also know about that mine?"
"Oh, no, no~ Village Chief George told me about the mine before. I am also somewhat interested in it. I went to the elder specifically about this matter before. I hope he will agree to let me go down on behalf of the village to check what happened.
What happened?" Liu Yifei said innocently.
In fact, when he saw the panic in the village before, he had already had an ominous premonition in his heart. Then after hearing Balder's words, he had already concluded that the violence of the monsters in the mine should be related to
Regarding the establishment of Puni Village themselves, if calculated from the straight-line distance, their location is indeed within one kilometer of Puni Village...
"Representing the village? It's up to you??? Humph~ Young man, listen to Balder's advice. Although bravery is a noble quality, blind recklessness is the same as stupidity.
If you have such thoughts, the dwarves will be grateful to you.
But please don’t forget that in addition to being natural miners and blacksmiths, we dwarves are also the best and bravest warriors. In front of our strength and swords, we are not afraid of any enemy.
We don't need anyone else to represent us at all. As long as the elder gives the order, there are many brave young people in the village who want to be the first line to go deep into the mine.
In fact, if the Great Elder hadn't used his magic to seal the mine, we would have rushed in early.
You know, the brothers of the first and fourth patrols were trapped in it, and even the two guard captains couldn't break out. We dwarves are not accustomed to abandoning our companions and despicable creatures of the tribe. No one can compare to us warriors.
I want to go down to the mine earlier and figure everything out.”
Balder jumped on his feet and shouted.
After hearing Balder's roar-like shout, Liu Yifei suddenly found that he couldn't say anything. It was as if a large piece of cotton had been choked in his throat, and he couldn't make any sound~
For players like them, this is just a game for gaining profits or relaxing, but for these NPCs with considerable intelligence, this is the "real world" that they have worked hard and struggled for all their lives.
"
Of course there are crazy and evil NPCs like Felina and Inheim; but there are also many pious and kind NPCs like the old tauren chief, dwarf village chief George and the great elder~
Moreover, these lawful good NPCs usually have their own clear views of good and evil. In the face of big evil, they can even rush out to block the eye and blow up bunkers without any regrets. In this magical world, in order to stop them
The expansion of evil can even give up everything, including one's own life and soul
Although he knew that they were just a piece of data and a program written by the game mastermind, Liu Yifei still felt that whenever he heard their stories, he would feel tears in his eyes~
And obviously, although the Bald Guard Captain in front of him is not as great and powerful as his predecessors, his mood is exactly the same as those of greater people...
"Um...I...Captain Bald Guard, I apologize for my offensive remarks before..." Liu Yifei apologized sincerely.
"Ah? Apologize? Why?" Balder turned around, blinked his little eyes and asked in confusion.
"Why? Of course it's because I just offended you with my words, about going to the mine on behalf of your village."
"Hairless goblin, isn't that your friendly gesture?"
"Yes, of course there is no doubt about it~" Although Liu Yifei did want to try to make some money and accept the reward for the first down copy, under such circumstances, it was obvious that his answer could only be yes.
"That's okay~ Since it's your good intentions, why do you still apologize?" Balder asked, seemingly even more confused.
"But...but...didn't you say that you dwarves don't need representatives? You also said that as long as the great elder gives you permission, you can go down and solve the problem yourself? I thought my remarks offended the dignity of you dwarves.
..." Liu Yifei said with a big drop of cold sweat on his forehead.
"Um...young man, you haven't come into contact with other dwarves before, right?"
"Indeed not. Although I was lucky enough to go to the inland of the elves once, you should know that those dwarves who are stranded in the elven camp, well... how should I put it, they don't seem to be very good at communicating."
"Sure enough... young child, if what I said before has hurt you, then it should be me who should apologize. In fact, I don't have any malice, and the way we dwarves speak is inherently
That's it~
You know, you have a loud voice, you love to complain, you love to brag, and sometimes you are overly critical of others...
The soldiers in our village do not lack strength and courage, but you should have discovered that their number is not large. In fact, after losing two patrol teams in the mine, our defense strength has been significantly reduced.
, otherwise, the Great Elder would not have completely sealed off the mine.
As for those young people who have not yet grown up... they are the future of our village, how can we let them take risks casually." The old dwarf looked at Liu Yifei with an expression of "you are really rare and strange" and said.
"That means... you are simply talking nonsense. My self-blame just now is completely unnecessary? And your village really needs someone to help you figure out what went wrong?"
"Uh... what... Oh, look, isn't that old George? Thank God, we have finally found him. By the way, I suddenly remembered that the defense work at the entrance of the village is still there.
How can I waste time here with you when I'm making arrangements? Well, you've seen him anyway, right? You can go there by yourself, I'll leave first~"
After saying that, Balder didn't even listen to what Liu Yifei said, and disappeared in a flash. When Liu Yifei hurriedly turned back to look for him, where was the bearded figure among the messy dwarves around him?
"How can he be so flexible? That guy must be a dwarf with a beard, right..." Liu Yifei smiled and muttered in dwarf grammar, and then walked towards the place where old George was at the entrance of the mine.
Compared with the old George Liu Yifei saw in the hotel before, the humanoid iron lump roaring and deploying a defensive formation at the entrance of the mine is completely different.
I saw that man from head to toe, wearing a steel protective mask on his head, wearing a high-collared brass armor, iron wrist guards, iron gloves, a steel-patterned belt, and heavy leg armor.
Then there are the pair of terrifying boots with sharp barbs, and the steel ax and hammer that is half the size of Liu Yifei...
At the moment, George is armed like a human-shaped steel fortress. There is no need to start a fight. Just walking to that station is enough to shock people~
At least, based on Liu Yifei's rich adventure experience in the past, he had never seen such a perverted warrior. What frightened Liu Yifei the most was not the thickness of the opponent's defense, but the fact that the bald old George was carrying such a heavy body.
Steel can actually run around like nothing happened, roaring and gesticulating at the entrance of the mine.
If he saw any dwarf warrior whose hands and feet were a little slower, he would step forward and give the opponent a hard kick on the butt, enough to kick the other little iron bump two or three meters away.
Such a high-intensity weight-bearing, such a large amount of exercise, but the other party seemed to be fine, let alone panting like a cow, and even the tone of his speech did not change. With this amount of strength, Liu Yifei suspected that this person's intelligence was not low.
The old dwarf may be the boss of the spiritual level.
"It seems like there is really a crouching tiger, hidden dragon in this small village..."
According to the situation of the tauren tribe at the time, the leader of this kind of wild community must be a big*oss with a spiritual level who can control the scene, so that person should be the elder, although Liu Yifei suspected that the other person had Alzheimer's disease.
, but in five hundred years, Liu Yifei could not imagine how high the other party's lv would be, and what the upper limit of mp would be~
And now it seems that even this "younger" village chief is a spiritual level. This is stronger than the tauren tribe back then. No wonder he can occupy a resource mine...
"Hey, old George, why are you dressed like this? And why is the village so busy? Did something happen?" Liu Yifei shouted from about ten meters away.
Hearing someone calling him from behind, Old George, who was extremely busy, turned around angrily. He wanted to yell at the village brat who dared to call him by his name, but he didn't expect that the person he saw was Liu Yifei~
"Is it you, little brat? If you are not busy with your own village at the foot of the mountain, how come you still have time to come up to us?"
"Haha, we are almost neighbors. Of course we should move around each other frequently~ I just happened to find something interesting and wanted to come up and ask your opinion, but I didn't expect to see such a scene. What's going on?
Are you preparing for war?" Liu Yifei asked knowingly.
"Hey~ It's a long story. In short, the monsters in the mine started to riot. Two batches of them had already escaped. Fortunately, there were people guarding the entrance of the mine at that time. The sealing of the entrance also slightly stopped the footsteps of those monsters.
If they were rushed into the village, God knows how much damage would be caused.
And although the soldiers successfully repelled the attack of the first group of monsters, before the formation was sorted out, the second group rushed up again, and the entrance of the cave had already lost the seal set by the great elder, so several people still appeared.
The injury has now been lifted for treatment.
I don't know when the next batch of monsters will rush out. I'm leading people to set up defenses here... Hey, those guys, be careful with your movements. They're bound to stop you. Do you want to be beaten by that thing?
Your intestines are squeezed out, you idiot, pay attention to your steps when you walk, you idiots..."
While he was talking to Liu Yifei, four younger dwarves from the direction of the village carried out a bag about two meters high and four to five meters long.
Compared with ordinary Juma, this thing is heavier, more restrained against charging monsters, and will not be easily overturned. Moreover, after being reinforced with a thick layer of iron armor on the surface, it has better defense and durability.
The attributes have been greatly improved, especially the fact that you are no longer afraid of being burned by ordinary flames. In addition to the greatly increased cost and production difficulty, it is much easier to use than ordinary Juma~
It's just that this thing has many advantages, but the trouble is that it is troublesome to move. I saw four dwarves carrying it, and it was still shaky when walking. It was heart-wrenching to see ~ I was afraid that if I was not careful, this thing would fall down.
Come down and crush the dwarves below into meat patties.
Liu Yifei was horrified when he saw it, and Old George couldn't sit still anymore, so he scolded him a few times, then rushed forward and picked up the big thing in one go~
Then, under the stunned gaze of Liu Yifei, Old George kicked away the two dwarves who were carrying things before, and carried the big guy to the mine with a roar, and then found the right place and "boom!"
With one sound, Bao Tiejima was thrown to the ground, and then he picked up his war hammer and returned to Liu Yifei with a curse.
"A bunch of useless guys, the goblins are stronger than them... By the way, little guy, you said you found something interesting, what is it? Show it to me quickly, the village is not safe now
, if nothing happens, just go back as soon as possible~"
"I'm so sweaty~ Uncle George didn't realize you were so powerful when he came here before. That thing just now must have weighed at least several hundred kilograms, right? You are wearing all these things, and you can actually carry it by yourself? Your strength is simply incredible.
Even more exaggerated than a hill giant."
"Come on, you little brat, please stop flattering me here. Let's talk about your business. What did you find interesting? Show it to me." Although he said that Liu Yifei should stop flattering him, he was trembling with joy.
The trembling beard obviously betrayed George's current mood, making Liu Yifei find these highly intelligent dwarves even more interesting.
"No, this is it. My men found it at the bottom of the lake. I don't know if it's the egg of a big crocodile. I want you to help identify it." Liu Yifei took out a large white egg from his backpack and handed it over.
"Ah, it's really the egg of a crocodile. It's a good thing. Where did you find it?" As soon as he saw the giant egg, a strange light suddenly shone in the old dwarf's eyes, and he stretched out his hands to hug it.
He asked while stroking her carefully.
"Um...it's at the bottom of the river at the foot of the mountain. Although it's quite deep, it's not too difficult to find. Why, Uncle George, haven't you ever discovered it?"
"Of course we have never discovered it. Otherwise, why would we leave such a treasure to you if we lack cavalry? This is a very rare pet egg. Besides, in fact, although we dwarves are the darlings of the earth, we
My skills in water are indeed very sparse~
It's not so much that I'm not used to fighting in water, but it's more that I'm naturally afraid of water. Let alone an ordinary dwarf, even I wouldn't be willing to touch the water unless I have to.
But the eggs of this big-toothed crocodile are really good~ If it’s for these treasures, I really don’t mind taking a dip in the stream below..." The dwarf caressed the big balls.
The expression on her face was one of incomparable happiness, as if she were stroking the most beautiful gem in the world.
"It turns out that fearless dwarves are still a group of landlubbers who are afraid of water flow..." Liu Yifei snickered, "But why do you attach so much importance to this egg?
Don’t you also have giant crocodile cavalry? Could it be any different?”
"Ignorant brat... do you understand the difference between a mount and a pet?" Old George glanced at Liu Yifei, as if he was very dissatisfied that the other party could still become a lord for being so ignorant.
"I do know this."
"That's it~
It’s not that dwarves cannot choose to become hunters, but unfortunately, there is no hunter’s master in our village. Only I, a warrior’s master, am qualified to train young people to become qualified warriors. Then every few years, we
Some powerful warriors will also be selected and sent to distant tribes to undergo professional assessment as knights...
