Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Cook became more and more curious about what kind of force could allow the bandit alliance to survive for so long, although Cook initially guessed that it was some kind of religious organization, otherwise it would not be the dwarves and gnomes working together, knowing that even in the surface world, the alliance between the dwarves and the gnomes would not have such a situation.
Gnomes and dwarves are two very different races, especially in character, dwarves are upright, while dwarves are proficient in numbers and often calculate some things, and dwarves like to drink, while dwarves like to keep a clear head, so dwarves are generally only related to work, and dwarves and dwarves will not live under the same roof at all in private.
During this period, the dwarves and orcs at the bottom of the cliff launched several attacks, but each time the wolf retreated, and the people of Romi City became smart and did not show up on the cliff, so even the dwarves used engineering bombs did not have much effect.
A few days have passed, and the people of Romi City have gradually become panicked, after all, it has never been something that has been besieged for a few days, and the part of the bandit alliance that went out this time has died, which has invisibly given a lot of pressure.
Cook also gradually understood the structural framework of this Romi City, the two dwarves and the one dwarf are the management class here, one of the two dwarves is responsible for defense, and the other is responsible for maintaining the tools of war, such as trebuchets, giant crossbows and other things, and the dwarf is similar to the profession of a butler, but this dwarf is responsible for all aspects.
Cook didn't have the patience to wait any longer, because the Shark Patriarch had already called Cook several times, and he didn't know what was going on, and the head of the Hunters' Guild had also found the Barony's Domain, and it was said that there was something urgent.
There is also a small number of flame giants in the dock, after all, such a large ship, there are many parts that need to be welded, and once the flame giants are consumed too much, they also need to be recovered by meditation, so the dock needs a large number of flame giants.
In addition, the cultivation of sugar beet is already partial, and in the Monto Empire, sugar beet grows very fast, so this sugar refining workshop also needs to be established, and this qiē needs Cook to be the master.
Cook observed for a few days, and found that the people with him didn't know much about the mastermind, because most of the people here are the kind of people who can't survive and become slaves, although in the underground world slaves have their own rights, but this right is only a small amount, as for what you are ordered to do, it is unconditionally enforced.
Cook couldn't bear it anymore, and the dwarf king still needed Cook to send it back, so Cook decided to take the initiative, and Cook chose to target the gnome, because the dwarf is timid, and the dwarf must know a lot of things.
However, Cook did not do anything blindly and impulsively, but first carefully observed the dwarf, because Cook knew that often such an important position of candidates, the mastermind behind the scenes must have some means of control.
"Sky Eye, scan this dwarf in front of you. "The communication of the Sky Eye will not be hindered, because the Sky Eye uses spatial fluctuations to communicate, which can be said to be extremely advanced, and there is no such thing as a time difference, and Cook has not been able to copy the identity card so far, because it is countless magic pattern arrays that are compressed on a thin card.
You can imagine how powerful the basic materials of the space fluctuation magic array are, take the teleportation array of the wizards' union as an example, obsidian, magic metal, and a large amount of metal, and a large number of solidified magic arrays, in order to have a platform for building a magic teleportation array, and the cost of such a platform is hundreds of millions of gold coins, but Cook's thin card can withstand such power.
It can be said that the things involved here are extremely extensive, and whether it is the magic pattern or the magic array, it consumes elements in the process of operation, then there will be elements that will be lost, resulting in a series of effects, just like the teleportation array of the magician union needs to regularly clean up the fine magic crystals on the pattern.
"It takes a minute!" The scanning function of the ID card is also very powerful.
A minute later, all the numbers on this dwarf appeared in Cook's mind, and Cook secretly said that he had paid attention to this after reading it, because there were two obscure magic fluctuations in this dwarf, one was in the teeth in the mouth, which must be magically poisonous, and in another place on the dwarf, there was a faint magic fluctuation on the back of the neck.
"It seems that the person in charge behind this also has a back hand!" Cook understood after looking at it, there was something on the surface inside the teeth, and the thing on the back of the neck was obviously unknown to the dwarf, because the dwarf couldn't control that place.
"Click!" Cook stood in front of the dwarf, and suddenly stretched out his hand, and removed the dwarf's chin, and the dwarf did not react at all, and then the dwarf saw a light like a practice, stabbing his neck, and then the dwarf saw a person in a black cloak appear in front of him, and this person still had a dagger in his hand, but there was still a dark green thing on the dagger, which was still faintly wriggling.
"Hmph!" Cook reached out and pulled out the dwarf's poisoned dentures.
"The venom of the krait?" Cook checked the venom in his teeth, and was also surprised, the krait is a famous poisonous monster, but the krait is very rare, so ordinary magicians have never seen it.
"Woo!" Cook closed the dwarf's chin again.
"You, who are you?" asked the dwarf in horror as he touched the back of his head, the blood on his hand, and the dwarf shuddered.
"What do you need to know about who I am, sit down!" Cook replied dismissively, then pointed to the ground.
The dwarf's eyes moved, but he couldn't tell what kind of person Cook was, what race he was, the key was that this person was also proficient in the dwarf language, which made the dwarf even more unable to judge people's means, if he knew the race, the dwarf could also specify a plan, but in the face of an unknown, could there be a plan?
Countless thoughts flashed through the dwarf's mind, and finally he had to sit on the ground, while Cook sat at the table, looking at the dwarf condescendingly.
"Do you know why I'm here?" said Cook, as he studied what had been dug up in the back of the dwarf's head, an unknown creature, to be precise.
"I don't know!" replied the gnome, shaking his head.
"Hmph, look at this thing, it came out of the back of your head, you don't know what it is, do you?" Cook showed the dwarf the dark green thing that was still wriggling on top of the Thunder Fang.
Just this look, the dwarf's face turned pale and a little trembling, and the knuckles of his fingers were also pale, obviously very frightened, but to Cook's surprise, the dwarf did not say anything as he imagined.
"Som!" Cook called out a name.
"You, you, how did you know my name?" the dwarf looked at the mysterious man in front of him in horror.
"Sue me, where is the secret passage?" Cook did not reply, but threw another bomb.
"No way, how did you know about the secret passage?" Som jumped and looked at Cook in disbelief.
"How strange, I've been with you for three and a half months. Cook deliberately exaggerated the numbers and replied dismissively.
"Three, three, three and a half months?" the dwarf stammered, stunned.
"You'd better be honest, who is the Elder?" Cook asked in an impatient tone.
"Elder, what elder?" the dwarf asked suspiciously, but his eyes still betrayed the dwarf's psychology at this time.
"Hmph, why don't I ask someone else, maybe the two dwarves might be better talkative?" Cook put the dark green wriggling thing into a crystal bottle and froze it, Cook was still eager to study what kind of creature it was.
The dwarf didn't say anything, but the dwarf's indifferent appearance made Cook realize that maybe there were some things that this dwarf knew, so Cook hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid, I will guarantee your safety!"
"You'd better kill me, if I say it, I'm afraid it will be harder to die, and it will affect my family. The dwarf replied with his head cocked.
Cook was dumbfounded, is this still that timid dwarf, no matter how you look at it, it looks like those orcs who don't want to die, Cook turned countless thoughts in his heart, and finally Cook asked: "How do you have to believe my promises!"
"Impossible, unless...... Forget it, you can't do it either. The dwarf immediately replied, having wanted to say something, but then did not say anything.
"You might as well talk about it, you won't live long anyway, right, the thing in the back of your head is gone, what's the blame if you don't die?" Cook looked like you were going to die anyway, and maybe you could live.
"Unless you take me to the surface world!" the gnome shouted with a pale face and gnashing teeth.
Cook's face was very strange, of course the dwarf couldn't see it, but Cook proved from the dwarf's words that the strength of this mastermind behind the scenes was very strong, otherwise the timid dwarf would not mention such harsh conditions.
"Well, I can grant you this request. The dwarf sat on the ground dejectedly, and when the sound came from his ears, the dwarf didn't react at all.
"What, you, you promised?" the half-ringing dwarf replied and stammered.
"Yes, come with me!" Cook picked up Som, and then, under Som's horrified gaze, came to the edge of the cliff, and then leaped down.
The imaginary thing of falling to the ground did not happen, and this figure was actually suspended in the air, slowly falling down, falling feathers, a very obscure magic, requires the feathers of high-level demonic beasts of the wind system as casting materials, and the difficulty of collecting the feathers of the flying demonic beasts of the wind system can be imagined.
"This, this, this is really the ground!" Som said in disbelief as Cook took out a magic teleportation array from a hidden place to take Som out of the ground, looking at the green plants and the dazzling sunlight.
"Of course, you gnomes also have a gnome kingdom, you can go to live there, of course, there are many gnomes in the human world, now you can tell me who is the mastermind behind the scenes, right?" Cook looked at Som's eyes stimulated by the sun and cried, but he didn't close his eyes, and ran to a plant and stroked it affectionately, Cook asked angrily.
"Boom, damn it, I bred it. With a thud, Somme fell limply to the ground, and a loud voice roared.
"Windsor!!!!" Cook yelled, and Cook forgot that the management of the gardens in his barony had been taken away by Windsor, who was the flower elf who was obsessed with cultivating all kinds of plants.
