Chapter 197 Arrival at the Gray Dwarf Oasis Composite Elemental Sandstorm Elemental Spirit
The scorching sun scorched the desert.
The air was evaporating under the high temperature, and it looked slightly distorted from a distance.
3,000 humans were marching on the sand dunes, stepping deep and shallow on the desert ground, and their speed was not very fast.
Tang Zheng and Yalaer were walking in the front, and every time they walked a certain distance, they would stop and observe the surrounding environment.
"Let all your people rest first," Tang Zheng stood on top of the sand dune, looking at the endless yellow desert in the distance, and spoke to Yalaer beside him.
"This is already the third time we've rested. We can continue to move forward. We already live in the desert and have long been accustomed to the environment here. We don't need to rest for such a long time."
Upon hearing this, Yalaer clenched the silver spear in her hand and spoke.
"We still have more than two days to go. Don't be in a hurry. Conserving your energy is the most important thing."
Tang Zheng shook his head expressionlessly, glanced at the three thousand humans behind him, and spoke lightly.
Three oases.
The oasis where the orcs live is closest to the Shadow Valley, followed by the dwarf oasis, and the human oasis is the farthest.
The oasis where the gray dwarves live is about three days' journey from the human oasis.
certainly!
This is under normal circumstances. A force of 3,000 humans may seem like a large number, but in fact most of them are ordinary people.
The long trekking is a great drain on physical strength, not to mention the hot desert environment during the day.
The consumption of the water carried by everyone is also a big problem.
"This time we will rest until tonight. From now on, we will rest during the day and travel at night." Tang Zheng spoke to Yalaer again.
Tang Zheng had never led an army before, which led to him neglecting many problems throughout the process. Fortunately, with Yalaer there, no trouble occurred.
During this process, Tang Zheng actually learned a lot.
"Traveling at night?"
Yala was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up and she immediately realized that this was a good idea: "I understand, hero."
After giving the order, Yalaer quickly returned to Tang Zheng's side with an expectant look on her face, and asked about martial arts training techniques.
Time passed little by little and night began to fall.
The three thousand excited human members who had finished their rest began to set off again.
Without the influence of the scorching sun during the day, everyone's movement speed was obviously much faster.
There were no unexpected situations during the next two days.
Although there are some relatively powerful monsters in the Valley of Despair, they are scattered across the vast desert, and it is not easy to encounter such monsters.
The cold white moonlight shines on the desert.
A team of ten gray dwarves, pulling a heavy wooden cart, was parked in a flat desert area.
Five of the gray dwarves were lying around the wooden cart and snoring, while the other five were yawning and looking around vigilantly from time to time.
They were the team of gray dwarves sent to the human side by the Minister of Blacksmithing.
The legion was defeated!
They even went so far as to send weapons as an apology to the inferior humans whom they usually looked down upon. This made the usually proud gray dwarves look like wilted persimmons.
No one was in the mood to laugh.
Just when several gray dwarves were about to fall asleep, a delicate shout suddenly rang out.
"Earth Charge!"
The next moment! A bright yellow figure appeared in front of several alert gray dwarves, and swept a spear across, knocking one of the gray dwarves flying.
"Enemy..." A gray dwarf screamed in fear, but before he could finish his words, a silver-white spear was swung and killed him with one blow.
It only took a breath.
Yalaer had already eliminated two alert gray dwarves, and was just about to kill the third one.
Rays of cold light flashed in the air.
No matter whether they were alert gray dwarves or sleeping gray dwarves that were awakened, they were all killed by the cold light.
Tang Zheng stood next to a wooden cart loaded with weapons. He glanced at the things on the cart, swung the blood bead on the big sword with his right hand, and picked up a person who was left alive on purpose.
"Very impressive, you are worthy of being a hero."
Yalaer stopped swinging the silver spear and looked at Tang Zheng with admiration.
She had only taken care of two gray dwarves, and the remaining gray dwarves had all been taken care of by the hero.
"Human...Human, don't kill me!"
"We are here to seek peace." The only living gray dwarf shouted in fear.
"Ask for peace?" Yalaer's wheat-colored cheeks tightened when she heard this, and anger appeared in her silver eyes: "So many of our people died at the hands of you gray dwarves, and you are still talking about asking for peace!"
"If it weren't for the appearance of the hero, all of us would have died in your hands!"
Facing Yalaer's angry questioning.
The gray dwarf's gray beard kept shaking, and he looked at Tang Zheng who picked him up in horror.
This is the mysterious person who defeated their army. He is actually a human! It's over!
The tribe is in danger! The gray dwarves were even more terrified. They were sent to the oasis where the humans were, not only to send weapons to seek peace, but more importantly to find out whether the mysterious strong man was a human, and what the other party's attitude was.
And now that the other party appears here, the answer is self-evident.
"We, the gray dwarves, are willing to cooperate with you humans. We can help you create weapons that are exclusively for humans to use..." The gray dwarf struggled and shouted in horror.
"Yara, arrange for someone to check if there are any other gray dwarves around." Tang Zheng turned his head, looked at Yaara beside him, and gave the order.
"Yes, hero."
Yalaer looked angrily at the gray dwarf in Tang Zheng's hand, nodded quickly and left quickly.
After seeing Yalaer leave.
"All-race Charm"
A flash of magic appeared in Tang Zheng's eyes, and invisible mental fluctuations instantly surged into the mind of the gray dwarf in front of him.
"Tell me all about your gray dwarfs." Tang Zheng asked with a cold look.
Under the influence of enchantment.
The gray dwarf confessed everything he knew all at once.
Tang Zheng deliberately asked for some information about Rune technology. According to the other party, Rune technology seemed to have been almost lost with the destruction of the Gray Dwarf Kingdom 50 years ago.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Among the new generation of gray dwarf craftsmen, there are no ones who can master the rune technology, but the Minister of Blacksmithing, who is the minister of the kingdom, still masters the rune technology.
After understanding this information,
Tang Zheng exerted a slight force with his palm and crushed the gray dwarf's neck.
After completely dealing with this group of gray dwarves, the human side began to move forward again, and finally arrived at a location about one kilometer away from the gray dwarf oasis in the late night of the third day.
"call out!"
The evil hound transformed into a goshawk, soaring into the sky and circling over the gray dwarf oasis.
After careful observation.
The evil hound flew back from the air and landed on Tang Zheng's shoulder.
The humans lying on the sand looked at Tang Zheng who was in the front, their bodies tense and waiting for orders at any time.
They will rush to the gray dwarf oasis as soon as possible.
"Everyone, get a good rest tonight. Tomorrow will be the real decisive battle with the gray dwarves!" Tang Zheng turned around and faced the gazes with a serious tone.
After traveling all night, everyone was exhausted. It was obviously not suitable to go to war with the gray dwarves at this time. What's more, the gray dwarves liked to act at night.
Tang Zheng brought three thousand humans here. The most important purpose was to prevent the gray dwarves from escaping.
With a population of more than 15,000, if there were a large-scale escape, Tang Zheng would not be able to take care of them all.
"Everyone do as instructed!" Yalaer spoke immediately afterwards, her bright silver pupils flashing with excitement.
It was not just Yarar who was excited at the moment. All the human members were also filled with tension and excitement.
In this unique atmosphere of silence, depression and excitement, most people began to feel drowsy until dawn.
On a small sand slope.
Tang Zheng was looking at the oasis in the distance. The overall area seemed to be larger than the oasis where humans lived.
now!
Around this oasis, a large number of gray dwarves can be clearly observed.
"My dear hero, do you want to wake them up now?" Yalaer walked over slowly, glanced nervously in the direction of the gray dwarves, and spoke in a low voice.
"Don't worry, just let them sleep."
Tang Zheng raised his head, glanced at the sky, and said lightly.
"My lord hero wants to take action at noon." Upon hearing this, Yala quickly understood Tang Zheng's intention.
Looking ahead at the gray dwarf oasis.
Tang Zheng suddenly asked: "The gray dwarves live underground, right?"
"That's right."
Yalaer's face was serious, and she said quickly: "Most gray dwarves don't like to move around during the day, and they even hate the sun. Even if there are trees in the oasis to block the view, they still build their living caves underground."
This is also the most troublesome part.
Yalaer's brows were knitted together, seeming to feel very troubled.
The underground environment is so complicated that even the gray dwarves themselves cannot fully understand it, let alone outsiders. Once they enter the underground, there is a high possibility that the entire army will be wiped out.
Faced with this troublesome situation.
Tang Zheng smiled instead: "This way, it will be much simpler."
"Huh?" Yala raised her head and looked at Tang Zheng with confusion.
It was soon noon.
The large number of gray dwarves that were originally outside the oasis have disappeared, leaving only a team of twenty gray dwarf soldiers patrolling around the oasis.
“It’s time to take action.”
Tang Zheng reached out and patted the evil dog on his shoulder.
Wow! The evil dog flapped its wings and immediately flew into the sky above the oasis, acting as a surveillance eye.
"Third-tier magic: composite element summoning!"
The magic power in Tang Zheng's body shook, and he raised his arm and pointed it forward, activating the passive ability of [Mad Mage], Elemental Transformation: "Sandstorm Elemental Spirit!"
