This secret passage was built on a hill in the western area of ​​Iron Fort. After being dug underground, it connected all the way to an abandoned mine outside the city. It was once used as an underground passage for transporting minerals, and mine car tracks were laid inside.

While passing through the secret passage, Annuo and Austin also encountered scattered monsters guarding below.

But they are all minions, and the highest level is only level three.

After running all the way out of the mine outside the city, Annuo followed the traces left on the ground.

In order to speed up his journey, Annuo also summoned two fifth-level monsters.

Leopold attacked the Iron Fort yesterday afternoon and took it down in the middle of the night - the main reason they were able to hold out for so long was that the dwarves had more equipment and magic cannons.

This means that the retreating dwarves had already been running for six or seven hours when the monster army discovered the secret passage.

But considering that many dwarves are ordinary people, their marching speed is definitely not as fast as the pursuing monster troops.

So it is only a matter of time before you are caught up.

Based on the traces on the road, Austin speculated that the fleeing compatriots intended to seek refuge in a nearby city.

The two chased for more than five hours and suddenly found the bodies of dwarf soldiers and monsters on the grass ahead.

This moment made Austin excited.

"Damn monster, Lord Anno, we need to speed up!"

"Well, it looks like we're pretty close."

Annuo observed the corpses around him and guessed that the battle must have taken place two or three hours ago.

After chasing for more than half an hour, Annuo used his [farsightedness] to discover the battle going on ahead from several kilometers away.

"in front of!"

After An Nuo found the target, he sped up and rushed forward.

"Where?" Austin, who looked confused, was left behind.

On the plain, the remaining one hundred or so dwarf soldiers were fighting a desperate battle with more than a thousand monsters.

Among these more than one thousand monsters, there are more than a hundred mid-level monsters, and the dwarf soldiers are no match for them at all.

When approaching the battlefield, Annuo discovered that there were several strong fighters among the resisting dwarf soldiers, including someone Annuo knew.

They are the brothers Kim and Yin.

The dwarves living in Thordar heard that the dwarf kingdom was attacked by monsters, and many dwarves decided to return.

Kim and Yin also came back with their friends.

They left Sodar earlier than Anno, but their speed was much slower than Anno.

Kim and Silver had arrived at the nearby great dwarven city of Saguntor only yesterday.

The two did not expect that they would run into fleeing tribesmen on the way to their hometown, Iron Fort, today.

After asking, the two learned that the Iron Fort had fallen, and there were monsters chasing them, and the remaining soldiers were blocking their way.

After receiving the news, Jinmu Yinmu immediately rushed to the battlefield and fought with the monsters.

The two brothers had broken through to the fifth level in the Battle of Gaso River.

Their joining relieved the pressure on the dwarf soldiers a little.

But there are also several level five monsters among them, and coupled with the disparity in numbers, the dwarf soldiers will be wiped out sooner or later.

Yinmu was wielding a short axe with murderous eyes.

Kim looked at his compatriots falling down around him and the monsters pouring in, thinking about how to resolve the situation.

"Everyone hasn't retreated to a safe distance yet. We have to block them here."

Kim used [Hammer Spark] to smash a fourth-level monster that was charging towards him into a pulp, and then rushed towards the fifth-level monster that was slaughtering the dwarf soldiers.

"If the president were here at this time..."

Kim suddenly thought of Anno while fighting.

With Annuo's ability, he doesn't even need to do anything himself to deal with these monsters.

"However, even if I don't have the strength of the president, I must hold the enemy back and protect my people today!"

Kim roared, and when he got close to the enemy, he jumped up and smashed down with the hammer.

Boom!

A huge explosion sounded.

Kim and his opponent both froze.

Because the noise came from outside the battlefield.

They looked in the direction of the explosion at the same time, and then saw a row of monsters flying into the sky.

Judging from the trajectory of the monster's flight, the guy who made the noise is rushing towards the center of the battlefield.

"Reinforcements!"

Kim's eyes lit up.

Those who were knocked into the air were all monsters, not dwarf soldiers.

This must be reinforcements.

boom!

A dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of Kim.

The enemy standing opposite Kim was directly blown up by the black shadow, and blood and flesh were scattered all over the ground.

The sixth-level evil bone leader, whose bones were emitting black light, tilted his head to glance at Kim who was standing there in a daze, and then continued to attack the monsters around him.

At the same time, Anno summoned all his creatures to join the battlefield.

Faced with summoned creatures starting from level four and dozens of level six creatures harvesting lives, the monster army of a thousand people was almost completely defeated in two minutes.

when!

Yinmu, covered in blood, chopped the King Kong zombie who came to rescue him with an axe.

After finding that he couldn't chop it anymore, Yinm raised the axe and prepared to strike again, but the King Kong zombie grabbed the axe directly with his hand.

"Let me go if you dare!"

Yinmu found that he couldn't pull the axe, so he spit out a mouthful of saliva and was about to spit out the King Kong zombie, but Jinmu, who came over, slapped him away.

"Can you open your eyes? Can't you see that this is the president's summon? How could the Ernest family produce a fool like you?"

"President?"

Yinmu, with a swollen face, climbed up and said in confusion: "Brother, are you stupid? The president is in the Kingdom of Nigar! How can he appear here?"

Jinmu resisted the urge to beat Yinmu, bent down behind Yinmu, and said respectfully: "President, thank you very much for your rescue!"

Anuo glanced at the dwarf soldiers who were gradually gathering around him, and said to Kim and Yin, who were wearing the Adventurer Star nameplates, "Long time no see, you two!"

Kim and are both finalists for the [World's No. 1] competition, and both have the title of [Adventurer Star].

"Eh? Big brother, look, it's the president. We are saved!"

Yinmu realized it belatedly and put her arm around Kimmu's shoulder, looking excited.

The dwarves who gathered around saw Yinm's performance and couldn't help but bow their heads in front of their savior Anno.

I'm sorry to have such a stupid dwarf from Iron Fort!

"President, you arrived just in time."

Yinmu walked up to him with a swagger, took out a big chicken drumstick from the package on his waist, wiped his own blood off it, and handed it to Annuo with a painful look on his face: "I bought this in Sagunto, it's delicious, thank you for saving us, President."

Seeing this, Kim couldn't help but slap her forehead.

The dwarves around him lowered their heads even lower.

I'm really sorry!

"Hahaha, let me try it!"

An Nuo didn't mind and took it and took a bite.

Seeing Anno's approachable appearance, the dwarf soldier Ogsger Clement behind Kim came up and asked, "Kim, are you familiar with this gentleman?"

Kim thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "He's our leader?"

Ogsig stared at Kim with wide eyes: "???"

Why are you asking me?

Kim suddenly thought of the important matter and said to Anno, "Master President, the Iron Fortress has been attacked by monsters and we need your help."

"The monster in the Iron Fort has been dealt with by Lord Anno!"

Austin walked in from the crowd and announced a piece of news that excited all the dwarves present, "That terrible monster was also killed by Lord Anno!"
