Chapter 5 Kadek's Request

Zhan did not respond to Kadek's words. He just sat there, silent. The black cloak blocked Zhan's face and blocked all sight.

At this moment, Kardek was also trembling. The danger of doing business with a necromancer was far no less than that of a lich. If the other party was unhappy, he could turn himself into a mummy in the blink of an eye.

In fact, Kadek had already discovered that the girl standing behind Zhan En was not a living creature. Just from her unnatural iron-blue skin, it could be seen that she was definitely the dead, and she was also a high-level undead.

Creature. Being able to make such an undead creature surrender willingly means that Zhan, the necromancer, is probably not simple either.

Seeing Zhan's silence, Kardek didn't know what he was thinking. Just when the gray dwarf consul was about to explain further, he suddenly felt a chill on his shoulders, and then, a banshee appeared out of thin air,

Just holding his body down. At the same time, Zhan En's deep voice came leisurely.

"You mean...let me serve you like those lowly orc mercenaries and those smelly bugbears?"

Zhan En's voice was not loud, but it was full of icy chill and disdainful ridicule. As if to cooperate with Zhan En, the banshee opened her pitch-black mouth and let out a harsh and soul-stirring scream.

Call.

"No! No! No!! Of course not, my lord! Please, this is our humble request!!"

Faced with the danger of death, Kardek finally couldn't hold on anymore. The most important thing is that Zhan made the point. Although his attitude was very respectful, Kardek really hoped to establish a majestic image in front of his subordinates. If

If he can persuade Zhan En to work for him, then his face will naturally be bright.

But it's a pity that Zhan didn't accept this trick, which also made Khadek panic and uneasy, especially to experience the "tenderness" of the banshee at close range, which is definitely not a good memory for any living person.

.It's like you're standing on the edge of a cliff, staring at the shadow of death in the dark abyss.

For the first time, Kadek discovered that death was so close to him, as close as only one finger away.

Not only him, but also several of his subordinates were surrounded by other banshees that appeared out of thin air at this moment. Although Khadek still hoped that they would remember their responsibilities, it now seems that they may not be able to protect themselves.

.

"Sir, sir! Dear mage!! Please forgive us, we definitely didn't mean to offend you!"

If Kardek still had doubts about Zhan's identity at the beginning, now he has no more unnecessary thoughts. This is indeed a gray dwarf city. Logically speaking, anyone here and

If the duergar conflict or kill the duergar archon, there will be no good end.

But the problem is that Zhan is a necromancer.

He doesn't care about the gray dwarves' large number of people, because the more people there are, the more potential sources of soldiers for the necromancer. Once a full-scale war begins with the gray dwarves, Zhan En, as a "necromancer", can use

Necromancy creates swarms of undead creatures to fight against.

Unfortunately, the gray dwarves have no ability to resist this. Although their natural physique allows the gray dwarves to resist most spells, it also prevents them from learning magic. In this case, dealing with the Necromancer

They are obviously very passive. Even if they can finally eliminate the Necromancer, they will pay a high price for it - this is something the gray dwarves absolutely do not want to see.

Of course Kadek knew this too.

Although Brandon Stone City is known as the pearl of the North, it is only a relatively weak one among countless underground cities, and does not even have high-end military protection. This is why Khadek wants to win over Zhan. After all, there can be a death

If the spiritual mage sits in formation, they will feel more at ease.

However, it is very dangerous to deal with mages. They are dangerous, lonely, and strange.

This is even more true for the Necromancer.

"Please forgive me for being rude, we didn't mean to anger you!! We are indeed eager to seek your help!"

about there.

Looking at Khadek, who was sweating profusely and his face was as white as paper, Zhan was silent for a moment, then waved his hand. Soon, the banshee let go of the Gray Dwarf Archon in front of her and floated back.

Feeling the departure of death, the Gray Dwarf Archon let out a long breath, with an expression on his face as if he was surviving a disaster.

He finally understood why the world's reputation for necromancers was so bad.

But unfortunately, it is easy to get on the pirate ship, but difficult to get off the pirate ship. The gray dwarves who hang out in the underground world naturally understand this truth. Although Kardek felt extremely regretful deep down in his heart, he still had the courage to continue talking.

"Please believe in our sincerity. We can assure you that this is just a humble request. And we are willing to pay a sufficient price for it. If you come here to do experiments, you must need a lot of magic gems and materials. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you."

You promise, if you can help us solve this problem, we..."

After saying this, Kadek was silent for a moment, and finally chose his own life in the face of interests and life.

"...We at Brandon Stone City can provide you with materials in this area for free...as long as we have them."

Of course, he still wants to preserve some profits if possible.

"…………Tell me about it."

Hearing this, Zhan En no longer remained silent. His goal has been achieved. Gray dwarves are also a greedy race. Although they are not as greedy as life, they are not far behind. If they are pushed too hard, it will be harmful to both parties.

It was not a good thing, so after hearing what Kardek said, Zhan nodded and said.

When he heard Zhan's answer, Kadek suddenly smiled in surprise.

"Okay, sir, in fact..."

What Khadek said was actually very simple. Just a while ago, the gray dwarves discovered a ruins while digging underground mineral veins (hearing this shocked Zhan, who thought his underground city had been destroyed).

I discovered it, and later I discovered that the directions of the two sides were different, and I breathed a sigh of relief). However, if this is the case, it is not a strange thing for gray dwarves.

The underground is different from the surface. You can never imagine how many historical relics exist here. Due to the special nature of the underground, any place may have and exist relics or cities from ancient times. There are various dangers here.

But there are also various kinds of wealth.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter where you are in the dark underground, as long as you keep walking along the gap, if you are lucky enough not to die halfway, then sooner or later you will find a building that is buried or sealed in dust -

——It may be a ruin or a tomb.

But no matter what it is, it will bring you huge benefits and rewards.

The gray dwarves were naturally aware of this, so they sent a team of skilled slaves to visit. But then, trouble became big.

The group of slaves did not come back, and then the gray dwarves sent another elite force, and this time they were even more unlucky. A group of brave gray dwarf soldiers wearing anti-magic armor were almost wiped out. Only one person escaped, and

He was so frightened that he couldn't even explain what happened.

At this time, the gray dwarves also knew that something was wrong, so they sealed the ruins and continued to dig the veins. However, this time, their digging work did not go smoothly.

Because the excavation team was attacked.

Every gray dwarf who escaped could not tell what exactly they encountered, but these excavation teams suffered heavy casualties. They even lost several battle masters. Faced with this inexplicable threat, the gray dwarves also felt a headache.

They have sent adventurers more than once to check, but their fate has not changed much from that of the gray dwarves.

Only one bugbear mage warned the gray dwarves after the investigation, saying that the ruins might be related to some mysterious ancient magical creature, which ordinary people could not deal with at all. And the bugbear mage did not have enough ability to explore the ruins, so this matter

It can only be put on hold temporarily.

For the gray dwarves, this is obviously not an easy decision to accept. Because that mine tunnel is connected to a huge silver vein, which has huge benefits for the gray dwarves. If they give up like this, then the gray dwarves will

But I’ll be so heartbroken that I can’t sleep.

It is precisely because of this that when Kardek learned that a "powerful" "Necromancer" had entered Brandon Stone City, he rushed over in such a hurry and tried to recruit him to serve him.

But I didn't expect that the other party was obviously not something that I could deal with. As a result, I almost lost my own life.

"That's it..."

After listening to the gray dwarf's story, Zhan nodded. At the same time, he quickly began to think in his mind whether it was worth doing so. The gray dwarf will indeed prepare generous rewards for himself, but Zhan can be sure that if he cannot complete the task.

Then the gray dwarves will not give him any benefit. Judging from the current situation, this task is relatively difficult for underground creatures.

However, this is only for underground creatures... If Zhan's guess was not wrong, then he had already sensed the true identity of the so-called "relic" from Kadek's story.

It seems that my trip to Brandon Stone City was indeed a good one.

Thinking of this, Zhan En's eyes flashed with an almost invisible smile, and then he reached out his hand and pushed his glasses gently.

"Okay, I'll go check out the situation."

Then, he spoke.
