Players’ NPC daddy.

Although Blaze felt a little heavy-hearted, he still had to eat, otherwise his punch-in would be interrupted.

Today, Jasmine prepared lunch of fresh-cut beef, sauerkraut rice and seaweed egg soup. It was much lighter than usual and was specially prepared considering Blaze's mood.

If it were too salty and greasy, Blaze might get so carried away after eating it that he'd want to charge straight into the treasure trove. Jasmine was using gentle methods to calm Blaze's mood.

Blaze scratched the back of his head. He saw the care in the meal and felt a little amused. However, he still accepted the kindness and ate the meal slowly.

Compared to his healthy diet, the Heroic Warriors' eating habits were much more extravagant, with huge portions of barbecue and malt beer, which were full of salt and oil. Fortunately, the Heroic Warriors were immortal, otherwise they would have died of the three highs long ago.

"Jasmine, how's the progress in deciphering the dwarven language?" After finishing their meal, Blaze began to ask about the business.

Sorry, it took longer than expected.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Language is too complicated. It would be better if my translation skills were a little more advanced."

This special communication, which only dwarves can hear, appears every six hours, very punctually, with the same content and duration each time. It stops after repeating three times, as if it were set in advance.

Greenland and the tailor went down to the land several times, but the dwarf kingdom was still in ruins, making it quite difficult to explore.

Their previous speculation that the Sun Chariot would be used to repair the Dwarf Kingdom was wrong. Although they could use the Sun Chariot to reverse time and repair the Dwarf Kingdom, they were not doing charity.

There must be enemy dwarves in the broken dwarf kingdom. Instead of helping these dwarves repair the dwarf kingdom, it is better for them to suffer and continue to dig like rats.

And only if the Dwarf Kingdom continues to break apart can they be the first to notice when the Dwarves are repairing the Dwarf Kingdom.

As for whether the group of dwarves who have obtained magical technology and can imitate the Sun Chariot will repair the Dwarf Kingdom, the answer is yes, and the reason is the same as the dwarves will not give up the Dwarf Kingdom.

The Dwarf Kingdom is part of the World Tree Totem. It is not only a hometown, but also a natural dwarf workshop. It would be strange if it was abandoned.

"You're still looking here. You're really patient at your age." Herbie suddenly attacked from behind and slapped Blaze's shoulders with both hands, as if he wanted to scare Blaze.

"Are you scared?"

"If I were scared, my first reaction would be to grab your hand and slam you into the ground." Blaze rolled his eyes.

To be honest, Herbie is the person in the world who is least likely to scare him. He can trigger the state of [Primitive Life·Giant] from a long distance, plus that special milky fragrance.

But it seems that he is the only one who can smell this scent without getting close.

"Has your taste faded?"

"I told you, don't act like I have body odor." Herbie crossed his arms in dissatisfaction, then pursed his lips. "It smells good, right? Audrey thinks it smells good too. She always sniffs me around, and she's almost absorbed all the scent."

"It's so sudden. She didn't seem to be so exaggerated before." Blazer recalled that Audrey was still very concerned about her image. At most, she was eager to try it, or did it occasionally in private.

Herbie was already as delicate as a large doll, and now he has grown long hair, which greatly enhances his attractiveness to women.

Herbie let out a whoosh and sat down next to Blaze. His energetic appearance immediately turned decadent, as if all the nutrients had been sucked out and he turned gray.

"Ever since the Battle of Tiamat, Audrey has been openly showing off. It's like she's trying to suck nutrients out of me. It's too much. What's there for me to suck? I don't even have enough for myself!"

"Um……"

Blaze looked Herbie up and down. It seemed that he had grown a little bit taller, but only a little bit.

"By the way, why are you only at level 35? That's so low."

"Do you think everyone is like you? I'm busy too." Hebi rolled her eyes at Blaze, but she did care a little. She said shyly, "Take me to a secluded place and fill me up, okay?"

pat-

A strange sound made Blaze and Herbie turn their heads at the same time. Greenland was not far away. The strange sound was the sound of the staff in her hand falling to the ground.

After a while, Greenland raised his right fist.

"victory!!!"

Chapter 1897 The Tenth Mobile Fortress

Greenland looked like he had fought his way out of a chaotic and difficult competition and won the championship. He was not as excited as he was now when he killed the big red dragon.

Although he didn't know what Greenland won, Blaze was happy for her from the bottom of his heart.

"congratulations."

Blazer applauded and congratulated, but unexpectedly Greenland applauded and congratulated him in return, wiping away tears of emotion.

"Congratulations on taking the path to adulthood before me. But your steps are a bit too big. It's so stimulating in just a short time. I don't know if Herbie's little body can handle it."

Blaze was confused, but he continued, "No, it's still three months before he becomes an adult."

"Wow—" Greenland looked at Herbie with sparkling eyes. This simple exclamation contained so much content.

Hebie felt a chill, realizing that Greenland must have misunderstood something. Although she did not rule out this misunderstanding, it was a bit too much. Greenland held the position of Silver Knight. If Audrey heard about it, who knows what terrible things would happen.

"I think you misunderstood. We were just talking about hidden leveling points and upgrades."

"I understand. It's a safe word, experience~" Greenland winked and teased, "Besides, it's a hidden leveling spot, somewhere no one knows about. What happens is a little secret between the two of us."

Herbie simply didn't refute. Anyway, no matter what he said, it would be translated into something strange by Greenland's ears. It would be better to say less.

"Okay, stop joking." Blaze smoothed things over in time. Although he didn't understand, it didn't prevent him from seeing Herbie's red ears.

"It seems that there is still no significant progress in the exploration of the broken dwarven kingdom."

"I really want to say that we have found the group of dwarves, but unfortunately we didn't. However, it's not a complete failure, it's just that it's not a good thing."

"We discovered that the Dwarven Kingdom wasn't simply broken apart, but rather systematically destroyed, achieving a kind of isolation. This is the evidence."

Greenland's expression became serious. She took out a map with crosses all over it and handed it to Blaze.

The cross represents a dead end, where there is no way forward, and these crosses draw very obvious circles on the map.

If this was formed naturally, it would be too perfect.

Blaze clicked on the map. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity on this map.

It's not that I've seen similar things, but that I've seen similar ways of dealing with them.

clatter--

Blaze's fingers landed heavily on the map, and he suddenly grasped the Eye of Athena. While giving orders to Jasmine, he walked towards the treasure place.

"Jasmine, mobilize the heavy Age of Gods equipment. We need to force our way through the treasure land and into the dwarven kingdom."

【clear】

"Blaze, do you see anything?" Greenland followed Blaze, putting on his equipment as he walked.

"I've seen similar methods before. Ouroboros once swallowed Helheim and its totems to protect Hela."

"The Dwarven Kingdom was not shattered, but was deliberately [cut off], compressing the World Tree Totem [Svartalfaheim] to a level where it would not be affected by the earth-shattering event."

"The worst might happen."

……

Tread-tap-

The rhythmic sound of footsteps echoed in the corridors of the Giant Palace. The distance of each step seemed to be measured, and the strength used in each step was exactly the same.

It is hard to imagine that this is the pace that the people of Gianes can take. Giants always symbolize chaos and destruction and have nothing to do with order, but this pace is the norm for the people of Gianes.

Every Giens person will begin to control their own power during the ignorant period. After all, they are accompanied by their childhood sweethearts who are as fragile as flowers.

Marika's expression was gloomy. Today, a quarrel with no beginning or end broke out in the Giant Palace again. The invisible pressure made everyone nervous. The elusive enemy made them like soldiers ready to fight at any time.

What gave her a moment's respite was the fact that it was the strangers who were adding pressure to the Giant Kingdom Alliance.

A stranger fished out an island in the infinite ocean world.

Regardless of how the stranger did it, there is no doubt that the island belongs to the stranger, but what the stranger will do on the island is unknown.

This is a question, an unsettling one that demands an answer.

Unfortunately, Audrey seemed to know that every meeting would be filled with arguments that had no beginning or end and were no different from simply releasing stress, so she only showed up occasionally.

There was no way. Even though Audrey didn't know the answer to the question, she had already decided what to do.

"I'm so...envious."

Marika stopped, stretched out her hand to hook the red spear behind her, and thrust it sideways. The spear tore through the shadows in the corridor of the palace and pointed directly at a man's throat.

Her narrow eyes, gleaming with fire, reflected a tall figure shrouded in a wide black robe, with only his gray-white stone hair visible.

"This is the Giant Kingdom Alliance's Giant King City. Anyone without an invitation will be considered an invader."

"Daughter of Frigen, why don't you respond to our call?" The black-robed man asked, his voice hoarse and cold, like a rusty gear, as if he didn't notice the spear in front of his throat.

Marika's expression didn't change at all. She responded by tightening her grip and awakening the spear named "Surtur".

"Why don't you answer? You are a perfect half-blood, there is no way you don't understand." The man in black robe lifted his hood, revealing a bandaged face. It was exactly the same as Marika's. His eyes like furnaces revealed his identity - a dwarf.

"Are you resisting? No wonder you've become so ugly. You've been contaminated by earthly culture."

The black-robed dwarf glanced at Marika sideways, his brows furrowed in a look of blatant disgust.

"What is your purpose in coming here?" Marika clenched Surtur, and the flame from the tip of the spear approached the black-robed dwarf, but the flame did not even ignite the black robe of the black-robed dwarf.

"Come and announce our arrival to your king."

boom--

The wavy ground of the treasure land shattered in an instant, and huge mechanical arms shining with metallic luster stretched out from deep underground and smashed into the surrounding ground. Then an incomparably huge behemoth tore through the ground and came onto the earth.

The tenth mobile fortress appeared.

No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as a moving island.

Chapter 1898 Moving Kingdom

Blaze squinted his eyes and looked up at the huge monster in front of him. Its appearance was very strange, like a towering mountain range growing continuously from the earth. Then, after most of its body left the ground, its head sank and it lay horizontally under the support of several large multi-segmented mechanical arms.

The mobile fortress was like a small baby in front of it. In terms of scale, it was the size of a large kingdom, like a large island, one-third the size of the Atlantis continent.

"Sure enough." Blaze's face darkened as he came to a conclusion. "They actually used magical technology to transform the very land that holds the totem into a mobile fortress."

[Mobile Kingdom Svartalfarheim LV500]

[Transformed from Svartalfaheim, one of the great tree totems of the past, it is a moving land and a free root.]

After the mobile kingdom of Svartalfaheim emerged from the earth, it began to stretch and deform like a sleeping giant stretching after waking up. As the rubble fell, the cylindrical mobile kingdom became clearly layered from top to bottom, like an incomparable huge castle.

Among them, the most conspicuous are the huge stone statues like pillars in the four corners of the mobile kingdom of Svartalfarheim. They are tall and burly like giants, but their short limbs and lush beards, which are the iconic features, prove that they are stone statues of dwarves.

After completing its transformation and shaking off the dust-like gravel, the mobile fortress stopped moving and remained quietly in place.

Blaze raised his hand to signal the Einherjar to retreat and keep a safe distance.

The previously constructed defenses were completely wasted, as they were easily crushed when the mobile kingdom's mechanical feet landed.

There was no movement in the mobile kingdom, and Blaze couldn't take the initiative to do anything, so he could only observe.

Blaze held Gungnir in his hand, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the gun barrel as he thought about countermeasures.

It was always their guess that a group of dwarves might be the enemy. Without any evidence, it would definitely not be a good idea to attack rashly.

Most importantly, this mobile kingdom was apparently made from the entire dwarven kingdom of Svartalfarheim, which meant that all the dwarves in this world might be inside it.

It is impossible that all dwarves are evil. Judging from the results of Greenland and the tailor's exploration, there is a clear and oppressive relationship between superiors and subordinates among the dwarves.

Just as Blaze was weighing the pros and cons, there was a commotion among the Heroic Warriors.

The Heroic Warriors, a group of fanatical battle incarnations, will only become chaotic after entering combat mode under one situation, that is, when their leader arrives.

Apart from the King of Asgard, only one person has such treatment.

Blaze turned around and saw it was Marika, the girl who always burned like a flame. But today she looked a little dull. She wore a cloak made of the flag of the Royal Knights over her silver-white armor.

And behind her are the Royal Knights.

Blaze raised his hand, signaling Marika not to say anything that would cause her to hurt herself.

When Blaze saw the main force of the Royal Knights appear, he understood what was happening.

"It was the Giant Emperor who came to inform me that I should take my army and leave the territory of the Dwarf Kingdom."

Marika nodded. Even though she had her hands hanging down and looked defenseless, it didn't change the fact that she was standing in front of Blaze.

If it was for Blaze, she could stand in front of Blaze as many times as she wanted, even if she was hated. But she was standing silently in front of Blaze at this moment because of [politics] and [interests].

The laws between kingdoms may differ slightly due to cultural customs, but there is also a set of laws that are commonly recognized among the kingdoms.

Although this set of laws was treated as a piece of shit in most real emergencies, in peacetime, it was an iron rule that each kingdom followed in order to prove its strength and morality.
