Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1068, Dwarf Reinforcements

Wu Heng looked at the carving knife, frowning, "It looks a bit cruel!"

There are two effects. [Tampering] can distort the original meaning when any text or symbol is engraved on the surface.

The words and symbols should refer to scrolls or array symbols.

But this limits the profession, and only scholars will be involved in related work.

The second effect is [Rule Etching].

When writing in the air, it can temporarily create false 'rules'.

rule!

This made Wu Heng's mind flash back to the scene of the previous battle with the three holy sees of the Holy See, in which the other party used a scroll.

After it was torn open, the words "Forbidden Soldiers" appeared in the air.

All weapons within the range are unusable.

Are the rules similar to this?

If so, then it is indeed an extraordinary and unique item.

The side effect is [Instant Death Curse], which is also very simple. If used three times in 24 hours, there is a chance that the Instant Death Curse will be triggered.

Although it is a probability, try not to gamble on it.

Just keep it within three times.

"Uncle! What is this ugly thing for?" Xiaoxiao asked at this time.

I stared at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was. Now it didn't look like a nail so much.

The other three ghosts also looked over, waiting for his explanation.

"It's a carving knife..." Wu Heng described the properties of the strange object in detail.

After listening to this, the four ghosts once again set their eyes on the strange object and examined it carefully.

Glenda said, "If it is as you guessed, then this strange object is much better than the previous two."

"I think so too."

The empress floated above the magma pool and said, "Why don't you try the effect so you can get familiar with this strange item."

"What can we try here?" Wu Heng asked.

The Empress said, "Let's see if we can change the temperature here."

"Then give it a try!" Wu Heng nodded, and after the carving knife cooled down completely, he took it in his hand.

He silently recited his request in his mind, and the next second, the carving knife in his hand began to carve in the void.

As each stroke of the pen fell, the temperature in the cave began to drop, and the heat waves in the air were torn apart.

Where Wu Heng was located, the surrounding rock walls were covered with frost flowers, and where the magma pool was located, there were also rolling heat waves.

It was as if the two spaces were divided by a strange force, with the cold and the heat waves forming a clear dividing line.

"This..." The four ghosts all looked shocked.

"Then we don't need to use the air conditioner anymore!" Xiaoxiao said.

Beni gently reminded, "Rare items come at a price. Who would be willing to pay for such a small thing?"

"Oh! That's right."

Glenda floated to the junction of ice and fire, "Changing the rules! This must be the power of the gods!"

The queen also said, "After returning, study it more and see where it can be used."

The ghosts were chatting about where they could be used.

Wu Heng held the carving knife and stared at the Molten Core.

"Perhaps..." Wu Heng raised his head, gazing intently at the Molten Core. "We can try to see if we can change its rules."

Four ghosts floated closer at the same time, their eyes glowing slightly.

"Let's try!" Glinda's eyes gleamed with shrewdness. "If we can interfere with the Molten Core's production rules... then we'll be rich."

The other ghosts also nodded.

Wu Heng gripped the carving knife tightly, concentrated his mind, and sketched out the first thought in his mind: "This output must be a high-value rare item."

The carving knife didn't move at all.

No?

Is it that the rules of rare objects cannot be changed, or is it that the engraving knife cannot determine what constitutes a high-value rare object?
Wu Heng thought about it and continued to try several other options.

'A unique item has reached its maximum value', 'The progress of smelting materials has been rounded up', 'The Molten Core can be taken away'...

He thought about each plan in his mind one by one, but the carving knife remained silent as usual, with no intention of carving any patterns.

"It seems..." Wu Heng sighed, "There is some kind of restriction between the strange objects."

The excitement in the eyes of several ghosts disappeared in an instant.

Beni comforted him, "This is to be expected. It's okay. It's fine now."

Xiao Xiao also said, "Yes! Uncle, don't be sad, it doesn't matter."

The empress fluttered back and forth a few times and said softly, "Then you should change your thinking and change some of the rules of the outside world."

External rules?

Wu Heng's eyes lit up and he glanced around to see if there was a direction he could intervene.

Said: "The only thing that can intervene may be luck."

"Then try your luck!" the queen continued.

Wu Heng nodded, and the idea of ​​improving his luck arose in his mind.

The carving knife moved again, drawing runes in the air, and then disappeared into thin air.

"Did it work?" Benny leaned closer curiously.

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow. "Although I don't feel anything special, it should be a success."

Then, he took out the remaining rare items and said, "We can smelt another one and see if it works."

The other ghosts also nodded.

As the strange items were thrown into the magma one after another, the progress bar of Molten Core began to climb rapidly:
75.9%86.2%94.7% finally settled at 99.5%!

99.5%.

This should be considered as good luck!
After all, finally reaching this value is already very close to the goal.

"Open the gate!" Wu Heng said.

In the distance, Benny pushed the handle with her telekinesis.

The red magma parted like a curtain, and an exquisite brass ruler lay quietly in the center. The star pattern on the ruler was flowing with silver light, and a bronze bell was hung on one side.

[Activate Object] was released, and the brass ruler flew out directly. After entering Wu Heng's side, it cooled down quickly.

[The End of the World is Just a Few Steps Away (Special Item)]

【Effect: Shrink the earth into an inch, find the trace.】

【Side effect: Time debt.】

(Description: The faster you go, the deeper you lose.)
[Shrink the Earth into an Inch]: When walking with this ruler, the actual distance of each step will be compressed, greatly increasing the user's movement speed.

【Tracing】: Think of a target in your mind, and this ruler will point out the direction.

[Time Debt]: Every time you use the ability to shrink the earth, you will "borrow" future time. After using it, you will fall into an unconscious state until the debt is paid off.

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow; this item was quite effective. It could also shrink distances, a feature that would be effective in the hands of any class.

The second effect is tracking, which can be used to find targets, and it is the kind that can be searched without any prerequisites.

Your own [Tracking Necklace] and the subsequent [Soul-Chasing Lantern] both require prerequisites.

This one, you just need to think about it in your mind.

Wu Heng picked it up and thought about what Minnie looked like at home.

The next second, the bell on the top began to jingle towards the direction of Treasure Island as if being pulled.

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows and thought about the gods of the Holy See again...

The bell swung again, but this time, it didn't point in any direction.

Wu Heng immediately retracted his thoughts and stopped thinking about it.

"How about this strange thing?" Glenda asked.

"It can shrink the distance to an inch and find the direction of the target. The side effect is entering an unconscious state..." Wu Heng explained the effect of the strange object and then put it into the space ring.

"It sounds good. Did the carving knife work?" the queen continued to ask.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "It should have played a role."

After all the materials were used up, Wu Heng simply packed up and left the cave with the ghosts.

……

Just walked out of the gate.

The dwarf with the copper whistle came running over. "Sir! Lord Leander asked me to inform you that the commander-in-chief of Lincheng has arrived and is waiting for you in the VIP building to discuss... the matter of Commander-in-Chief Ferrari."

Wu Heng raised his eyebrows, it seemed that reinforcements had arrived.

"Are you the commanders?" Wu Heng asked in a deep voice.

"Because Molten Core is quite special, there are many guards around it," explained the dwarf.

Wu Heng nodded and continued to ask, "How many people came?"

"I entered the city with my personal guards, and there are still troops stationed outside." The dwarf continued, "I originally wanted to meet you at the VIP building, but since you weren't there, I invited your female companion over first. The local head of the Snake Emblem Consortium is also here."

Letili was also called over. It seemed that they were afraid that I would run away.

"Okay, I understand." Wu Heng nodded and continued, "I've used up the Molten Core. What to do next is up to you."

"Yes, sir." The dwarf official with a copper whistle waved to one side.

Several dwarves walked straight in.

Wu Heng took out his motorcycle, sat on it, and headed towards the city center.

……

In the reception room of the VIP building, the crystal chandelier illuminates the room brightly.

Letili sat upright in the carved wooden chair, her slender fingers tapping lightly on the armrest.

Today I was wearing a neat travel outfit and my hair was neatly combed behind my head. Today was the day I agreed with Wu Heng to leave here.

I just didn't expect to be invited here so suddenly.

"Miss Letili!" Gunda, the iron-armored dwarf sitting opposite, leaned forward, his heavy armor making a dull rubbing sound. "Mr. Hariboko, I don't think he'll just leave you alone!"

"Of course, we won't make things difficult for you if he leaves. Dwarves have always valued friendship, but we also hope you can provide some more information about him."

The dwarf's voice was low and rough, with an undeniable firmness.

Beside him, Commander Ferrari slumped in his chair, the dark circles under his eyes showing that he hadn't slept well in the past few days. From time to time, he glanced around nervously, as if on guard against something invisible.

The last person was Leander, the dwarf civil servant who received Wu Heng. He was silent at this time and looked like he was resting with his eyes closed.

Letili chuckled softly, her fingertips curling a lock of hair. "Friendship? The kind where if you can't rob someone, you bring an army to exact punishment?"

The armored dwarf slammed his fist on the table, causing the teacups to jingle. "Watch your words."

"You're the one who should be watching, Commander." Letili slowly adjusted her sleeves. "This matter is over. I advise you not to interfere, otherwise it will only make things worse."

The air in the room froze instantly.

"Ahem!" The local leader, who had been silent the entire time, cleared his throat at the right moment and smiled. "Calm down, both of you. Commander Gonda is doing his duty. As for Miss Letili..."

Then, he turned to Letili and smiled like an elegant gentleman, "Don't worry, I still have some face here."

Letili's face was expressionless.

"If you ask me!" the person in charge continued, his fingers rubbing the rim of his teacup. "This is because that outsider went too far. Lord Ferrari is the garrison commander and a candidate for the Dwarven Hero. He represents the entire Dwarven race. No matter what, he can't... Sigh!"

After saying that, he sighed softly.

Letili narrowed her eyes, picked up the teacup, and used the steaming heat to hide the mockery in her eyes.

I originally thought it was to mediate the conflict, but now it sounds like it is adding fuel to the fire.

Letili put down her teacup and said softly, "You can't say that. It's the dwarven tradition to keep one's promise after losing a fair fight. But I've never heard of someone bringing an army to fight back after losing a fight."

Gunda's face turned pale in an instant, and he was about to explode when there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"It seems!" Letili looked outside and said with a smile, "The person you are waiting for has arrived."

The others also looked towards the door, their eyes narrowed slightly.

Wu Heng walked into the living room, his eyes sweeping over everyone in the room before finally landing on Letili. "Are you okay?"

A glint flashed in Letili's eyes, and her red lips curled up slightly. "I was just invited over for a cup of tea, and then... I was scolded."

"Mr. Harry Bogo!" The local leader suddenly stood up with a smile on his face. "You're finally here. Regarding this matter, I think..."

Wu Heng walked around him and sat down in the seat next to Letili.

Gunda slammed the table and stood up, the clanging of armor like a war drum. "Outsider! If you break the rules in Deepforge, you must pay the price!"

"Rules?" Wu Heng turned around and sneered, "Are you referring to your people trying to force the Molten Core's progress with 2500 gold coins? Or are you referring to you bringing your army to redeem yourself?"

Gunda's beard trembled with anger. "Closing the mountain is a normal procedure for the dwarves! It's you... "

"That's enough." Wu Heng raised his hand to interrupt, his voice calm, "Just tell me what you want to do!"

Gonda scoffed and stretched out his stubby fingers. "First, hand over the rare object you smelted this time as compensation. Second, return the space ring you stole and everything inside. Third, apologize to us..."

There was dead silence in the room.

Even the nervous Ferrari looked over, obviously not expecting that Gunda also wanted the rare item refined by the other party.

"Ha!" Wu Heng suddenly laughed. "So it's another one eyeing rare treasures. Looks like I'll have to bring another 'guest' back to Treasure Island."

"Don't you want to leave here? Wu Heng is on Treasure Island. It's such a long distance. Can he protect you?" Gunda touched the battle axe.

At this moment, the local leader stood up again and quickly stood between the two sides, "Don't get excited! Mr. Harry Bogo, if you ask me..."

He smiled, his eyes narrowing slightly. "You are indeed wrong in this matter. Apologize and compensate us. That way, we can all get out of this situation, right? And it won't implicate Miss Letili."

He became more and more excited as he spoke, "You are still young, you should learn to judge the situation!"

"Shut up." Wu Heng waved his hand.

The person in charge suddenly froze.

He touched his face in horror, and where his mouth should have been was now a smooth expanse of skin.

Mmm! Mmm!

He stumbled back, knocking over the coffee table and sending the teacups shattering all over the floor.

This scene made the dwarf on the opposite side open his eyes wide again.
