In life, there are always various dreams.
A person without dreams is just a zombie.
Raven once had many dreams, one of which was to command an Iron Lion.
If you don't consider your height, the steel army surrounding Lei Wen at this moment is indeed quite impressive.
Three legends opened the way, and one legend stayed behind, guarding the twelve golden saints at the twelve o'clock position. Oh, no, they were twelve gold-level gray dwarf warriors.
With this kind of treatment, someone almost thought he was Athena's lover.
If you don't consider someone's prisoner status, it's really cool.
"Boss, in fact, if I enlarge my moves, at your level, boss, you can run a hundred meters away in an instant. These dwarfs have short legs and there is no way they can catch up."
Baimao is loyal enough and rarely has a brain. This plan sounds like it is even remotely feasible.
The problem is, do you expect an orc who is used to having a rough voice to whisper to you?
The volume of more than 100 decibels was comparable to a tweeter, and the entire elite gray dwarf team of more than 300 people heard it.
Countless gazes came at him at once, making a certain bear man immediately realize that the matter had been revealed.
If looks could kill? It would be like a sword slashing a bear's skin, an angry ray roasting a bear's meat, and Bai Mao's cuteness could be put on the dining table in an instant.
Raven's head was covered with black lines, and he was really hurt internally by the white-haired idiot.
There was a flash of white light, and there was no time to react. The short bear tail of a certain bear man was almost cut off. Only when he saw it clearly did he realize that it was a throwing axe.
A one-handed ax with excellent workmanship and gleaming cold light that could be sold for a thousand gold coins in any city, turned out to be just a throwing axe.
The craftsmanship and wealth of the gray dwarves are evident.
Bai Mao jumped up completely, and Raven could only helplessly raise his hands to show that he had no intention of running away.
In fact, Raven never thought of running away from the moment he saw the legendary gray dwarf. It is true that gray dwarves inherited the tradition of short legs of dwarves, but gray dwarves are better at long-range weapons than dwarves.
right!
It’s the ‘height adjustment method’ that is a hundred times more ferocious than Mrs. Li’s flying knife.
The story happened an unknown number of years ago, when a gray dwarf city was invaded by an army of demons.
The two-meter-five-meter-tall demon leader teased the leading gray dwarf like this: "I really don't know what the survival value of you dwarfs who are only half my height is."
Do you know how Gray Dwarf answered?
Just throw it over with an axe.
Some people say that the blow shocked the heavens and earth and made ghosts and gods cry.
Some say that one blow of the ax split the entire multiverse in half.
Anyway, after the blow, after adjustment by the 'Height Adjustment Method', the gray dwarf leader said to a certain lower body that was still spurting blood:
"Now we are the same height."
The name of the gray dwarf leader soon became known to the whole world, and everyone remembered his name - Ladugue, the future patron saint of the gray dwarves.
And ax throwing has become one of the gray dwarf traditions.
Therefore, Raven really never thought that he could escape alive.
"Don't play tricks." Lonnie, the legendary gray dwarf warrior, came over. Every piece of flesh and beard on his face showed dissatisfaction. Yes, the muscles were tight and the beard was raised.
Raven smiled dryly: "It's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
Lonnie thought for a while, but still felt uneasy, so he called Hamilton, the only gray dwarf priest among the four legends, to come over.
The two of them discussed it in a 'whisper' that they thought no one else could hear: "This guy named Raven is very cunning, I'm afraid he won't give in so easily."
"It seems we can't save it."
"Um."
If it hadn't been for the next move, Raven might have thought that these guys with brains full of muscles were competing with Bai Mao for the lower IQ limit.
The dwarf priest recited the divine incantation, and his eyes began to mutate, losing the eyeballs and whites, and a gray divine light suddenly emitted from the eye sockets.
The divine light swept over Raven, and then Raven received a system prompt:
"A divine curse has been imposed on you: As the only patron saint of the gray dwarves, Ladugue is well aware of the isolation of the gray dwarves. He never expects the gray dwarves to have allies, so he is good at using divine power to force any non-gray dwarf races to bear the burden of gray dwarves.
Things that dwarves are not good at. You have now become Ladugue's human treasure hunting hound. The time you work for the gray dwarves depends on how many treasures you can find for them."
"If you leave the 100-meter radius of the gray dwarf priest Hamilton who casts a divine curse on you, you will be immediately struck back by the divine curse and die. You cannot lift the divine curse on your own until you provide enough tribute to Ladugue. Perhaps, you
Can you find a powerful god to save you?"
"Now your relationship with the Gray Dwarf Elite Treasure Hunting Team is mildly hostile. You must show enough sincerity to improve the relationship between the two parties. After the contribution value (0/5000) reaches the standard, your relationship with the Gray Dwarf Elite Treasure Hunting Team can be improved.
To be neutral.”
After receiving this reminder, Raven breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and the plan in his heart began to be perfected.
"Have you received my Lord's oracle? Remember, don't leave me too far, and then help us find what we want, and it will naturally benefit you. Half-elf!" Hamilton ordered gruffly.
"Can you at least tell me what you are looking for?"
Hamilton looked around, seemingly uneasy, worried that his subordinates who were farting and taking out small flasks to drink would eavesdrop. He lowered his voice and whispered to Raven at a volume of 100 decibels: "We are looking for someone who can guide us."
Let’s go to the treasure map fragments on the floating island of the Ancient Arcane Empire. I heard that they can be found in the Setan Labyrinth.”
Sure enough, it’s this again!
Whether intentional or not, the torrent of fate has hijacked Raven, forcing him to use his Bronze-level strength to go to the Setan Labyrinth, which has the legendary mechanism golem as the bottom boss.
"Haha, the Setan Labyrinth with countless mechanism golems? If you want my life, just say so. Anyway, you will die if you go there, and you will die if you kill me. Why don't you kill me here, and die more simply."
Hamilton seemed a little worried. In his imagination, Raven would not be such a bachelor. After thinking about it, he took out a long strip of white bread, broke off about one-eighth of it, and thought again, and then cut off the eight pieces.
Break off half of it.
He raised the sixteenth piece of white bread and said, "A gray dwarf will never treat his friends badly. No matter how valuable he finds something, at least he will give you this share."
If the person speaking was a dwarf elder, Raven would believe it, but as for gray dwarves... Raven would secretly sneer three times.
However, on the surface, he still looked worried about his own life, and quickly expressed that he was very satisfied with the gray dwarf's reward.
In this way, this strange team began to march towards the Setan Labyrinth, which is more than fifty kilometers away.
Along the way, seeing this rumbling steel army still practicing stealth operations, Raven wanted to die. As one of the underground races, gray dwarves are best at digging holes like dwarves.
Drilling holes is too time consuming.
Ladugue, who was afraid of not being able to catch up, could only send out an assault team to try his best.
Because although the gray dwarf patron saint Ladugue is classified as a dwarf god, in fact, when meeting other dwarf gods, he will definitely just "do it".
Considering the isolated situation of the gray dwarves, it is not difficult to understand that they are eager to get a small floating island as a retreat.
In order to conduct "stealth operations", these gray dwarfs made a rare disguise and painted their skin with something. From a distance, they really looked like a group of dwarves.
Raven just smiled and said nothing.
However, when passing a town, the gray dwarf troops went around it, but Raven did a small thing while these careless gray dwarfs were not paying attention.
In a blacksmith shop in the town, the blacksmith suddenly discovered that one of the arrows he had placed in a conspicuous position was broken diagonally for no reason, and was then embedded in a large gray shield by some mysterious force.
On the shield, there are two small emblems.
"This is..." Time seemed to freeze, and the blacksmith was so surprised that he could hardly breathe.
