Chapter 5: Kadek's Request
Jenn didn't respond to Kadek's words, he just sat there and was silent. The black-robed cloak obscured Jenn's face and his vision.
At this moment, Kadek is also trembling, and the danger of doing business with a necromancer is far less than that of a lich, if the other party is unhappy, it is a matter of an eye to directly turn himself into a dry corpse.
In fact, Kadek had already appeared, and the girl standing behind Jenn was not a living creature, just from her somewhat unnatural iron-blue skin, it could be seen that she was definitely a dead person, and a high-level undead creature. Being able to make such an undead creature surrender willingly shows that Jenn, a necromancer, is probably not simple.
Seeing that Jenn was silent, Kadek didn't know what he was thinking. Just when the Grey Dwarf Archon was going to elaborate further. He suddenly felt a chill in his shoulders, and then a banshee appeared out of thin air and held his body down. At the same time, Jenn's deep voice came leisurely.
"What do you mean......... Let me serve you like the lowly orc mercenaries and the stinking bear goblins? β
Jenn's voice wasn't loud, but it was filled with a cold chill and dismissive mockery. As if to match Jenn, the banshee opened its pitch-black mouth and let out a piercing, soul-stirring scream.
"Nope! No! No!! Of course not, my lord!! Request, this is our humble request!! β
In the face of the danger of death, Kadek finally couldn't hold on. Most importantly, Jenn got to the point. Although his attitude was very respectful, Kadek really hoped to erect a majestic image in front of his subordinates, and if he could persuade Jenn to give him his life, then his face would naturally be very bright.
However, it is a pity that Jenn does not eat this set, which also makes Kadek frightened, especially feeling the "warmth" of the banshee up close, which is definitely not a good memory for any living person. It's as if you're standing on the edge of a cliff, staring at the shadow of death in the dark abyss.
The first time Kadek appeared, death was so close to him, only a finger's distance away.
Not only him, but even several of his subordinates were surrounded by other banshees who appeared out of thin air at this moment. Kadek was counting on them to remember their duty, but now it looked like they were afraid they wouldn't be able to protect themselves.
"Great, sir! Dear Mage!! I beg your pardon, we didn't mean to offend you! β
If at first, Kadek had doubts about Jenn's identity, now he didn't have the slightest idea. This is indeed a city of gray dwarves, and it stands to reason that anyone who clashes with the gray dwarves here, or kills the gray dwarf archon, will not end well.
But here's the problem, Jenn is a necromancer.
He doesn't care if the gray dwarves are outnumbered, because the more people there are, the more potential troops there are for the necromancer. Once the battle with the Grey Dwarves is in full swing, Jenn, as a "necromancer", can use necromancy to create hordes of undead creatures to fight.
Unfortunately, the grey dwarves are defenseless. Their innate constitution allows the Grey Dwarves to resist most spells, but it also leaves them unable to learn magic at the same time. In this case, dealing with necromancers is obviously very passive. Even if they were able to destroy the necromancer in the end, they would pay a dearly price for itβsomething the gray dwarves would never want to see.
Kadek is certainly well aware of this.
Although Brandon Stone City is known as the pearl of the Northland, it is only one of the weaker of countless underground cities, and it does not even have high-end military protection, which is why Cardik wants to win over Jenn. After all, if they could have a necromancer in the array, then they would feel a little more at ease.
But dealing with mages is dangerous, they're dangerous, they're withdrawn, and they're weird.
This is especially true for necromancers.
"Please forgive me for being rude, we didn't mean to provoke you!! We are indeed eager to ask for your help! β
Almost.
Looking at the sweaty Cardik, Jenn was silent for a moment, then waved his hand, and soon, the banshee let go of the gray dwarf archon in front of her and floated back.
Feeling the death gone, the Grey Dwarf Archon let out a long sigh with a look on his face that would last for the rest of his life.
He finally understood why the world was so badly evaluated of necromancers.
But unfortunately, it is easy to get on a thief ship, but it is difficult to get off a thief ship, and the gray dwarves who are fighting in the underground world naturally understand this truth. Although Kadek regretted it in his heart now, he still stubbornly continued.
"Please trust our sincerity, and we can assure you that this is only a humble request. And we're willing to pay enough for it, you're going to need a lot of magic gems and materials for experimenting, and I assure you, if you can help us out of this problem, we'll ............"
Speaking of this, Kadek was silent for a moment, and finally chose his own life in the face of interests and life.
ββ¦β¦β¦ We at Brandon Rock can provide you with this material free of charge......... As long as we have it. β
Of course, if possible, he still wants to keep a little interest.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ Let's talk about it. β
Hearing this, Jenn was no longer silent. His goal has been achieved, and the gray dwarves are also a greedy race, although not to the point of asking for money and dying, but not much worse. It's not a good thing for either side to push too hard, so after hearing Cadek's words, Jenn also nodded and spoke.
Hearing Jenn's answer, Kadek suddenly smiled in surprise.
"Yes, my lord, in fact, .................."
What Kadek said was actually quite simple, just some time ago, the Grey Dwarves had discovered a ruin while digging underground ore veins (which scared Jenn to hear this, and thought that his dungeon had been revealed, only to be relieved that the two sides were in different directions). However, if that were the case, it wouldn't be a surprise to the gray dwarves.
The underground is different from the surface, and you can never imagine how many historical relics remain here. Due to the peculiarities of the underground, it is possible for any place to have and store ruins or cities from ancient times. There are all kinds of dangers, but there are also all kinds of wealth.
It is no exaggeration to say that no matter where you are in the dark underground, as long as you follow the gaps, if you are lucky enough not to die halfway, then sooner or later you will have a building buried or sealed in the dust -- it may be a ruin or a tomb.
But no matter what it is, it will bring you great benefits and rewards.
The Grey Dwarves knew this, so they sent a team of skilled slaves to visit. And then, the trouble is big.
The group of slaves didn't return, and then the gray dwarves sent another elite force, which turned out to be even more unlucky this time. A group of brave gray dwarf soldiers wearing demon-resistant armor were almost wiped out. Only one person escaped, and he was so frightened that he couldn't tell what had happened.
Now the gray dwarves knew something was wrong, so they sealed the ruins and continued to dig up the veins. This time, though, their excavation didn't go well.
Because the excavation team was attacked.
Each of the Grey Dwarves who escaped couldn't tell what they had encountered, but the digging party had suffered heavy casualties. There were even several combat masters lost. In the face of this inexplicable threat, the gray dwarves also felt a headache, they had already sent adventurers to check on more than once, but their fate and the gray dwarves had not changed much.
Only one bear goblin mage had reined the grey dwarf that the ruins might be related to some mysterious and ancient magical creature, and that ordinary people would not be able to deal with them. And the bear goblin mage didn't have enough power to explore the ruins, so the matter could only be put on hold for the time being.
For the Grey Dwarves, this was clearly not an easy decision to accept. Because the mine road is connected to a huge vein of silver, it is of great interest to the gray dwarves. If you give up like this, the gray dwarves will be heartbroken and unable to sleep.
It is precisely because of this that when Kadek learned that a "powerful" "necromancer" had entered Brandon Stone, he came in such a hurry, trying to recruit the other party to serve him.
It's just that I didn't expect that the other party was obviously not something I could deal with, and as a result, stealing chickens and rice was not a loss, and I almost even took my own life.
"That's right..............."
After listening to the gray dwarf's story, Jenn nodded. At the same time, he began to quickly wonder if it was worth it. The grey dwarves do have a good reward for themselves, but Jenn is sure if he can't get the job done. Then the gray dwarf will not give him the slightest benefit. At this point, this task is relatively difficult for underground creatures.
However, this is only for the creatures of the underground............ If Jenn was not mistaken, then he had already detected the true identity of the so-called "ruin" from Kadek's account.
It seems that I really didn't go wrong to come to Brandon Stone City this time.
At this thought, a smile flashed in Jenn's eyes, which was almost invisible, and then he reached out and gently pushed his glasses.
"Okay, I'll go check the situation."
Then he spoke.
