The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 313 The Hunt Begins
With the armor version of the flamethrower as a prototype, it didn't take Richard long to create the dwarf version of the flamethrower armor.

The dwarf version of the flamethrower suit still consists of two parts: a flamethrower and an energy pack. However, due to the size of the dwarf, Richard made some adjustments to the energy pack, adding a mithril magic tube between it and the flamethrower.

This allows the energy pack to be carried directly on the back of the magic dwarf, rather than being directly connected to the flamethrower like the witch hunting team.

In addition, Richard planned to rework the armor of the dwarves.

The magic dwarves also know some rudimentary alchemy, but their alchemy is far too crude compared to Richard's.

As an alchemist, I watched the magic dwarves use their crude alchemy to process materials that are worth thousands of gold in the wizarding world.

Richard felt his blood pressure was about to rise.

Richard planned to optimize and transform their armor based on its original foundation.

Make the armor lighter and the defensive effect better.

At least let the material play its due role.

……

"Try it and see if it's lighter."

In Richard's temporary residence, the dwarf Barn took the armor handed over by Richard and smashed his right chest hard with his left fist.

"Thank you for your trouble, sir. The demon dwarf will never forget your kindness."

Richard waved his hand, signaling him to stop talking nonsense and put on his armor quickly.

The armor of the dwarves is very different from that of humans.

The dwarves are short but very broad, so the breastplate of the dwarves' armor is particularly large.

In addition, the arms of the magic dwarves are thick and even longer than their two short legs. From the perspective of human common sense, their arm armor looks like leg armor.

Because the magic dwarves mine underground all year round, they have extremely developed hearing.

Therefore, Richard designed the dwarf's helmet based on the human's frog-mouth helmet. The entire helmet is almost completely closed, with only a small slit in front of the eyes as an observation hole.

After putting on the armor, Baine moved around a bit and felt that his body was not too restricted, and his flexibility was not affected much.

The once heavy metal armor became as light as leather armor after Richard's transformation.

For the strong and sturdy magic dwarves, this set of armor can be described as "light as a feather".

"How does it feel?" Richard asked.

Baine looked at Richard and said solemnly, "Sir, your skills are nothing short of miraculous. With your armor, I feel we can kill the evil demon even if you don't take action."

Richard ignored Barn's praise, turned around and handed the hammer head and fire-breathing magic suit beside him to Barn.

"Pluto will teach you how to use these things. Now go out and call the next one in."

Outside the door of the temporary residence, a dozen or so magic dwarves who had been awarded the title of warriors in the settlement were waiting in line.

These magic dwarves, who were usually as calm as mountains, were now unusually impatient. They frequently looked at the door of the temporary residence, waiting for the magic dwarves inside to come out.

rumbling...

The stone door of the residence was pushed open, and Barn, wearing armor covered with gold patterns, walked out of the room carrying a pile of things.

Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Baines smiled slightly and shouted:

"Next!"

……

Seven days passed in a flash, and soon the day of hunting arrived.

On the eighth day, the high priest, twelve golden-armored dwarves, and thirty-six dwarf warriors stood in the cave area, quietly waiting for Richard's arrival.

Six of the twelve golden-armored dwarves are third-level creatures, and each of the thirty-six dwarf warriors is a second-level creature.

Moreover, the armor of these dwarves was modified by Richard, and all of them were equipped with fire-breathing magic armor and alchemical hammers.

It can be said that this team is the strongest team of the magic dwarves in nearly three thousand years.

It is more than enough to kill the evil demon Bruno.

If it weren't for Richard who killed the evil demon Bruno according to divination, the high priest wouldn't even want Richard to participate in this battle.

The magic dwarves never like others to interfere in their revenge.

Soon, Richard, dressed in a black robe, slowly flew to the side of the magic dwarf team.

The high priest looked behind Richard and asked curiously:

"Hmm? Master, don't you have any followers?"

Richard pointed to the pocket on his waist and said helplessly:

"I did. But the tunnel in your mine is too narrow, so I can only put them in the bag for a while and release them when we get to the destination."

The tunnels dug by the magic dwarves can be said to be spacious for the magic dwarves themselves.

But for the witch hunting team members who are more than three meters tall and look like a wall when standing upright, this mine tunnel is no different from a dog hole.

Fortunately, according to the magic dwarves, the bottom of the mountains they mentioned is a terrain similar to an abyss, and the terrain there is spacious enough.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for Richard's witch hunting team to come out and fight.

The high priest was stunned when he heard this, and then he revealed a helpless smile.

Richard's followers were indeed not suitable to enter the mine.

Richard waved his hand and said, "Everyone is here, so let's go down quickly.

I really want to see what kind of ability this evil demon you are talking about has to be able to be reborn again and again."

The high priest waved his hand, and a dwarf in golden armor took out a horn, came to the entrance of the cave and started blowing it.

woo-

As the horn was blown, a horn sounded in the mine tunnel.

After hearing the horn, the golden-armored dwarf led the remaining dwarves into six teams, each with two golden-armored dwarves and six magic dwarf warriors.

Richard frowned slightly: "You want to divide the troops?"

In his opinion, dividing the troops is not a good strategy.

The high priest explained, "Master, don't worry. The main reason is that our mine tunnel is narrow. If too many people enter, it will be a hindrance. The evil demon has been suppressed by us at the bottom of the mountains for many years. Although we have been lax in suppressing it over the years, we will at most encounter some of his minions on the road.

The horn sound just now also told me that there is no problem down there."

Richard didn't say anything after hearing this. He nodded and joined one of the teams of magic dwarves.

This team of dwarves includes Pluto, which will make communication easier when we go down later.

"Then go down."

……

The mine tunnel leading to the bottom of the mountains is actually not narrow. At least Richard can stand up straight in it.

According to the records of the magic dwarves, in the early years, many deformed people were not completely eliminated by them.

After the evil demon Bruno was driven into the bottom of the mountains, these deformed ones also followed him into the bottom of the mountains.

Some of these magic dwarves even retained their sanity and wisdom. At the foot of the mountains, they fused the flesh and blood of evil demons and forged one blasphemous weapon after another.

In order to deal with these deformed ones equipped with profane weapons, the magic dwarves often used siege weapons as individual weapons in their early years.

This is what is meant by putting the anti-aircraft gun level.

Therefore, the mine tunnel leading to the bottom of the mountains is not as narrow as the usual dwarf mine tunnels.

Of course, these mine tunnels are still just larger dog holes for the witch hunting team.

In the mine, the dwarves formed an inverted V shape.

Led by two golden-armored dwarves, six magic dwarf warriors guarded the surroundings.

Richard stood among them, looking at these ancient mine tunnels that had gone through thousands of years with interest.

The walls of the mine are equipped with luminous stones, which can provide the magic dwarves with a faint light in the dark.

But for the magic dwarves who mine underground all year round, this light is enough.

tick, tick...

Melted snow from the top of the mountain dripped continuously along the cracks in the mine tunnel. In the silent mine tunnel, the "tick-tick" sound was particularly obvious.

"You can actually speed up a bit."

The dwarf team stopped, and the two leading dwarves in golden armor looked at Richard who spoke with some confusion.

"My Lord, you may not understand how cunning those evil minions are." A golden-armored dwarf said, "Some of those evil minions have very outstanding camouflage. Sometimes, they can even disguise themselves as an ordinary rock to ambush us.

If we act too quickly, we could easily fall into their trap.”

"You mean mimicry?"

Richard raised his eyebrows and appeared in front of the team in a flash.

"Then these things should not be the traps you prepared."

As he said this, Richard stabbed his golden staff hard into the ground.

The originally flat ground suddenly started to churn after this insertion.

A mimic with gray skin that looked exactly like a rock instantly shed its disguise and turned into a twisted monster of flesh and blood.

The two golden-armored dwarves in the lead couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat; they didn't notice the mimicking monster at all.

If they took two more steps forward, they would fall straight into the mimic's mouth.

The mouthparts of these mimics are filled with fangs that can tear through steel and digestive juices that can corrode gold.

Even if their armor has been upgraded, they will definitely be injured by the digestive fluid if they fall in rashly.

Moreover, these mimic monsters will also convey messages to the evil demon Bruno at the bottom of the mountains. Once you fall in, the different taste from before will definitely be conveyed to the evil demon Bruno.

This may cause a lot of trouble for their next actions.

Thinking of this, the dwarves couldn't help but feel a little more fortunate.

Fortunately, the wizard is here.

Richard didn't pay attention to the dwarves. At this moment, he was deeply attracted by the mimic under the staff.

He bent down, tore off a layer of the mimic's skin, and collected it as a specimen.

This layer of mimic skin can continuously change its color and texture according to the environment, it is simply a natural camouflage suit.

If we can figure it out, it will definitely be of great use in the future.

The mimic's struggles gradually weakened, and Richard engraved a life-absorbing tree pattern on the lower half of the refined gold staff. At this moment, the tree pattern was constantly absorbing the mimic's vitality.

These deformed monsters with tenacious vitality are natural blood bags for life absorption.

Feeling the endless vitality in the staff, Richard slapped his head, then took out two metal ingots from his pocket and used alchemy to make a few daggers with life-absorbing tree patterns.

"I actually forgot this. My brain is really not working well."

Richard smiled, distributed the daggers to several dwarves, and asked them to try the effects of the daggers.

Pluto was the first to arrive in front of the gradually motionless Mimic and stabbed the dagger into its body.

The next moment, Pluto's eyes widened and he called out to his teammates behind him:
"Come on!"

Several other dwarves followed suit, and one of them stabbed the mimic.

After feeling the surging vitality coming from the dagger, several dwarves widened their eyes.

This dagger is very useful to them.

With this dagger, they can use those weak deformed monsters as blood packs.

"Is it useful?" Richard asked.

Several magic dwarves nodded in agreement, this thing was so useful.

"As long as it works."

Richard's body floated slightly, and he pulled out the adamantium staff from the mimic that had turned into a mummy, and replaced it with a mithril staff.

"Tell me the next route, and I will lead the way."
