Family migration?

Henry's first reaction when he heard these words was that these subterranean dwarfs must have been attacked by some horrible creature.

You must know that this is an underdark area. Once most races have established a gathering place, they will not move easily, because there are too many unknown dangers in the dark, and a little carelessness will lead to disastrous consequences, such as the death of the entire race. Bare or captured as slaves.

It can be said that every forced migration is tantamount to gambling with one's own life. If you are lucky, you can find a new place to build a town after paying a certain sacrifice, and start to survive and reproduce again. If you're unlucky, there's not much to say, either becoming food for monsters, or being captured by beholders, mind flayers, duerwarves, and dark elves as a miserable slave.

There is no doubt that these little guys are in big trouble, if they don't help, they will suffer heavy losses, even if they are all annihilated and captured by the Kuu Tao Yuren.

After all, the Kou Tao Yuren are a very ancient race. They used to be the uncrowned kings of the ocean. However, in ancient times, they had a tragic battle with the surface residents. In the end, due to unknown reasons, they were defeated and almost wiped out. The sea and the rest went into the Underdark and hid. It was at this time that the sahuagin seized the supremacy of the deep sea. Although these guys have lost the cornerstone of civilization and degenerated into primitive tribal forms, they still have many excellent weapons and armor. Of course, this is not because of their superior forging and mining techniques, but because they often rob caravans and hawkers who are not strong enough, and they are more knowledgeable than goblins, orcs, and kobolds, so they become the most notorious in the Underdark. one of the robbers.

Different from the streamlined body of the sahuagin trained in the deep sea for a long time, the kuo-toa has a head like an ordinary fish, and the whole body is covered with gray or brown scales. Due to long-term survival in dark and narrow places, the limbs have degenerated, and there are webs between the fingers and toes. Generally speaking, they live in places with sufficient water sources, somewhat similar to frogs. Belongs to land and water amphibians.

After thinking about it for a few seconds, Henry felt that he couldn't just watch hundreds of subterranean gnomes being wiped out, so he immediately ordered: "Let the war trolls take the lead, and after five minutes, let the soldiers attack from the flanks. The Kou Tao murlocs will be wiped out completely, and help these little guys by the way."

"Yes, I'll get ready." Antlaib is as good as ever in terms of execution, almost never asking why. Follow orders exactly. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Robert kept him firmly in the position of leader of the dark elf assassin team. As soon as he heard that he was about to fight, the bloodthirsty dwarf berserker jumped out and shouted loudly: "I haven't cut people for a long time, and I just use these stinky fish to exercise my muscles and bones. You know, old Korgan is an expert in killing fish." Whether it is edible fish or non-edible fish, all I need is an ax."

"Are you sure you won't kill and lose control, and even kill those subterranean dwarfs?" Henry asked suspiciously. He didn't want a good rescue operation to turn into a massacre because of this crazy dwarf in front of him.

"Hey, don't worry, I promise I will never cut those dwarfs. They are too weak to make people interested at all." Korgan replied carelessly, while pulling out a pair of axes from his waist. He took short legs and ran towards the front of the team.

Seeing the impatient look of the dwarf warrior, Henry couldn't help but shook his head slightly, and patted Solaufin who was standing beside him: "Baron, I've given you a task to keep an eye on Korgan. In this state, you can maintain your sanity in battle.”…

"Okay, I'll try my best, you know. He's not very easy to deal with when he's crazy..." Solaufen drew out his weapon and followed with a helpless expression. He had seen with his own eyes what Korgan looked like after he activated his berserk ability. It's almost like a demon crawling out of the abyss, if it wasn't for not showing spell-like abilities. I am afraid that some people have long suspected that this guy is also the son of Baal.

To be precise, this dwarf berserker understands the true meaning of killing even better than most of the descendants of the God of Slaughter, and never shows mercy to any enemy in battle, including old people, women, children, and domestic animals, any living thing All of them can make him have a strong desire to kill, and he becomes deeply intoxicated in it inadvertently and cannot extricate himself.

Henry has seen many powerful warriors, including the half-orc Vaughn, and now the orc chief of the Northland - Sackham, the orc warrior who has been made into an alchemy life - Sim, the culprit who set off the turmoil at Baldur's Gate The culprit - Sarevok, the famous Mithril Five, the leader of the sahuagin - Jacques Houas, the most powerful thief in Askatla - Arkanis...

Of course, Aberdare, who is growing rapidly, is also one of them. Some of them are ambitious, some are full of ideals, some stick to the bottom line, and some are loyal to the organization. It is a kind of enjoyment, and I am very happy to experience the feeling of wandering between life and death.

Undoubtedly, this is quite abnormal and almost completely violates one of the biological instincts, to avoid danger.

As we all know, all animals living in nature, including humans, dwarves, elves, etc., all have some innate instincts, such as breathing, and eating, and avoiding danger is one of them. Although intelligent creatures can forcibly suppress this impulse through a series of training, it is absolutely impossible to transform it into enjoyment.

If he hadn't been so busy that he couldn't find time, he would have wanted to give the old dwarf a full body checkup to see what caused this incredible change.

Antleb moved very quickly, and after only five minutes, he launched an attack from the side as planned.

The war troll in heavy armor is like a terrifying battering ram, wielding a specially made heavy weapon, directly opening a bloody path among the enemies. Every time they roar, they can bring about bloody storms, killing the Kou Tao murlocs in an instant. Chaos inevitably appeared in the originally tight formation. Harvest life in pieces.

The dark elves, who were good at fighting in small groups, were not to be outdone. They broke through the cracks in the enemy's formation in the blink of an eye, and even released the talent ability "Dark Barrier", which immediately turned the tumultuous battlefield into a pot of porridge. Quite a few Kou Tao murlocs accidentally started fighting with the same kind around them because they couldn't see what was going on around them. After a while, the pool not far away was dyed red.

"The stone is on top! Those dark elves are actually helping us?!" Gao Dande Heishi shouted in surprise. As the leader of this subterranean gnome migration team, he couldn't believe his eyes.

You must know that the dark elves often bully the subterranean gnomes and force them to hand over a large amount of tribute, otherwise they will send a commando to kill some gnome patrols or prospecting teams as a warning. Of course, sometimes this kind of killing may also be to please the goddess Rose.

"Your Excellency, the Kou Tao murlocs have stopped attacking. Should we evacuate immediately?" A panting soldier asked loudly.

Gao Dande glanced at the situation on the battlefield, and finally shook his head helplessly: "No, there are too many women, old people, and children in our team, and we can't escape the tracking of the dark elves. Now we can only pray that they really come Help us, or…”…

"Otherwise we are dead." Another old dwarf in a robe took the words. He wears the holy emblem of the patron saint of the subterranean dwarves, Coradron Slider, on his chest, and looks like a priest.

"You're right, Thonde Dagford, but I don't think the situation is that bad. You see, there are a large number of light-skinned guys among them, who feel a bit like surface residents." Gao Dande pointed to the front Human soldiers with spears, shields and short swords.

Seend narrowed his eyes and observed carefully for a few seconds, then nodded slightly: "Yes, they should be human beings. The real army has always been strange, maybe we should send envoys to contact them. Also, remember to bring some gems as gifts , which can better reflect goodwill.”

As soon as the words fell, a voice suddenly came from the darkness: "I have heard your kindness, as for the gems, forget it."

"Who? Who's there?" Gao Dande immediately stood up nervously, one of his hands tightly holding the emerald gemstone hanging around his neck. There is a powerful magic unique to subterranean gnomes stored in it. As long as it is activated, it can immediately summon a five-meter-tall earth element made of solid rock.

"Relax, little man, we have no malicious intentions, otherwise those dark elves and human soldiers wouldn't just attack the Kuu-toa." After speaking, several figures came out from the depths of the tunnel, it was Henry and his teammates.

After seeing his true face, Gao Dande widened his eyes, opened his arms, and ran towards Apodel. As he ran, he shouted: "Aha! I thought who it was, but it turned out to be you adventurers from the surface. How are you doing recently?"

"Not bad, how about you? Why did you leave your own village?" Apodel bent down and hugged the dwarf and asked with a smile.

Hearing this question, Gao Dande immediately sighed with a mournful face: "Hey...don't mention it, do you still remember that closed mine?"

Apodel nodded lightly: "Of course, you accidentally dug a passage leading to the bottomless abyss and provoked a powerful demon, so I sealed it off with my own hands. What? Could it be that the demon came out again Already!"

"Unfortunately, yesterday's earthquake caused the mine to crack open again, and it was even bigger than before. Countless lemurs surged up from inside. We couldn't hold it at all, so we had to pack up our things and run out in a hurry." Said. Not only Gao Dande, but even the other subterranean dwarves also looked depressed.

But it's no wonder that anyone who is driven out of his home by a group of robbers will not feel good, not to mention migrating in the dangerous Underdark region...
