Wizard: Building a Cultivation Family from Scratch

However, Gordon did not let his guard down:

"You just said your name is Kuru?"

Upon hearing this, the kobold immediately pulled the wooden staff in its hand closer to its chest, its yellow eyes darting around as if trying to figure out what the human in front of it wanted to do.

"It's the great Kuru!"

He corrected him in a low voice.

"The Great Kuru?"

Upon hearing this, Orianna's expression became even more peculiar.

Normally, she might have found the dog-headed man somewhat comical, or even cute.

But when she thought of Maurice, who had just died, and the undead corpses that he had manipulated to rush out, she couldn't bring herself to laugh.

Orianna gripped her short sword tightly, staring at the kobold before her, her voice unconsciously turning colder:

"Did you create all those corpses just now?"

Upon hearing Oriana's voice, Kuru's body trembled violently.

It glanced at the young girl before it, then at the tall knight standing beside her, and instinctively took a step back, shaking its head hastily as it said:

  

"No, it wasn't Kuru who killed him."

Kuru did not kill anyone...

Kuru just picked them up.

At this point, as if suddenly remembering something, he quickly pointed with his paw to the corner of the cave and eagerly explained:

"Bad guys are fighting, and a lot of people have died."

Kuru was just dragged back to grow mushrooms!

Mushroom is very hungry!

Kuru is hungry too!

Kuru didn't kill! Kuru was very well-behaved!

The kobold spoke so fast and urgently that he almost bit his own tongue because he was so nervous.

"Damn it, what the hell is this?"

Orianna's expression didn't improve much after hearing what the other person said.

She took a deep breath, stared intently at the dog-headed man before her, and then began to gather the last wisp of spiritual energy within her body.

"Wait a minute."

At that moment, Gordon's voice suddenly rang out.

Orianna was stunned and looked at Gordon with some confusion.

Gordon patted Orianna on the shoulder:

"This kobold must be the wild wizard who made the corpses in Bren Village disappear."

"Don't kill him yet, take him back first."

As he spoke, he peered into the cave through the gaps in his mask.

Finally, my gaze settled on a huge ceramic basin in the corner, covered with clusters of dark green mushrooms.

Clearly, this kobold used these things to control Karen and the other corpses.

Although Gordon didn't know the true identity of the kobold, he felt it was necessary to keep it under control before Viscount Wolf found it.

Then he said in a somewhat cold voice:

"Come with us."

"No!

I'm not leaving!

Kuru isn't going anywhere!

This is Kuru's home!

Upon hearing Gordon's words, the kobold quickly shook his head, then hugged the thing in his arms even tighter and slowly shrank back.

Seeing the other person's somewhat strange actions, Gordon fell silent.

After a while, he suddenly said:

"What's that thing in your arms? Let me see it."

However, upon hearing this, the kobold reacted as if its tail had been stepped on, even its fur stood on end slightly.

"no!!!"

Its voice suddenly rose a few decibels.

"This belongs to Kuru!"

Kuru found it!

Whoever finds it keeps it!

As it spoke, it shrank behind the broken wooden table, seemingly trying to use its small body to hide the book in its arms.

"I knew you were all bad people, you all wanted to steal Kuru's things."

Kuru is going to kill you all!!

Gordon had only intended to test the waters, but after seeing the other party's reaction, he was finally certain.

The book in the other person's arms is probably a bit strange...

Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have risked their life to protect it.

Thinking of this, Gordon sneered and then slowly raised the longsword in his hand.

"I'm not discussing this with you."

The kobold froze. He glanced at the knight's longsword in Gordon's hand, which still gleamed with golden light, and then at the withered, thin wooden staff in his own hand...

A few seconds later, it deflated like a punctured balloon.

"Kuru can be lent to you to see."

It whispered, "It's just a loan, and you can only look at it for a short while. You have to return it to Kuru after you're done."

As it spoke, it seemed to have made some extremely painful decision, slowly taking the thick notebook out of its bosom.

But the claws remained firmly gripping the edge of the notebook, refusing to let go.

However, just as Gordon reached for the notebook, a sly glint flashed in the kobold's yellow eyes.

"Snapped!"

Its tail swept silently backward, and a small earthenware jar hidden under the broken wooden table was sent flying, heading straight for a large earthenware basin filled with dark green mushrooms in the corner.

At the same time, the kobold immediately emitted a series of indistinct, strange cries: "Gurgle gurgle, wake up!"

The sudden scene before her eyes immediately changed Orianna's expression, who had been watching from the sidelines.

She then noticed several mangled corpses covered in animal hides in a corner of the cave, which were beginning to twitch slightly...

As the small earthenware jar that had been knocked away by the kobold shattered with a "crack," a cloud of greenish-blue powder immediately gushed out and landed on the dark green mushrooms in the earthenware basin.

The next moment, the previously still bluish-black mushrooms suddenly began to wriggle violently, as if they were dancing inside.

Seeing the bizarre scene before her, Orianna's eyes widened, and she quickly warned, "Ancestor, be careful!"

However, Gordon was much faster than her; almost at the same time, he raised his right hand.

Instantly.

An orange-red fireball flew rapidly toward the large ceramic basin.

boom!

Flames shot into the sky, followed by explosions, and the scorching flames instantly stuck to the clusters of dark green mushrooms.

The entire process lasted less than a breath.

In the firelight, the smug expression on the kobold's face hadn't even fully formed before it froze completely.

He stared at the pot of bluish-black mushrooms being consumed by flames and immediately let out a strange cry: "Mushrooms! Kuru's mushrooms!"

The next moment, he threw himself at the earthenware pot in despair, and then, as if his life depended on it, he kept patting the flames with his black robe.

However, Gordon was using magic, so how could it be so easily extinguished?

The kobold screamed and frantically pounded on the flames, taking several minutes to finally extinguish the fire.

Even so, only a small portion of the mushrooms remained in the pot.

"Mushroom... Kuru has been raising this mushroom for a long time..."

Seeing the mess before him, the kobold collapsed to the ground with a thud, his voice trembling with a hint of a sob.

However, before he could recover from his grief, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and the kobold's crying stopped abruptly.

He turned his head stiffly and found Gordon holding a longsword, looking down at him.

He then realized that the human knight in front of him was actually a wizard.
