Chapter 2

The moonlight was like water, illuminating this mountain range.Na Erka sat on a stone and stared blankly at the bright moon in the sky.
After a long time, he sighed.He was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but this soft sigh was very distant.Beside him, Luobin laughed, "Look at how old you are.
What kind of trouble do you have?" He was dressed in light armor, and his lance was standing on one side.
He leaned against the boulder, looking indescribably relaxed and content.Na Erka received the wine bag, opened the lid, and took a few sips.
Then, he looked into the distance.After a long time, he put down his wine bag and slowly sorted out his equipment.
Then, he nodded at Luobin and threw himself into the night sky.In the deep night sky, Na Erka's figure swiftly and silently rushed out.
The narrow paths in the mountains were filled with strange stone vines, which were naturally born and rarely visited by people.After walking for a long time, his vision brightened.
Na Erka stopped and looked around with rapt attention.This place was very spacious and there were several wheat fields.
The wheat swayed in the wind and it spat out a fragrance under the moonlight.Not far ahead, two dangerous peaks confronted each other.
The cliffs were steep, and ancient trees were deep.
The vines swayed, but there was no aura of fierce beasts.There was indeed a narrow entrance to the confrontation between the two peaks, but they couldn't see the situation inside at all.
If it weren't for the intent to investigate, they would have easily missed it.Na Erka slowly walked over.
He was very careful.
The Dwarves' architecture techniques were unparalleled in the world, and trap-making mechanisms were no problem.Just as they were about to reach the mouth of the valley, Na Erka moved slightly and vanished into the shadows.A voice that was hard to understand the profundity was heard, followed by a hearty laugh.
It was the chest of two dwarves.
They were not taller than adult men, but they were extremely thick, and there were the most commonly used weapons and axes of dwarves around them.At this moment, they were chatting happily at the mouth of the valley.
Suddenly, light flashed in front of their eyes, but before they could react, a long sword had already stabbed at them.
The shadow of the sword hit their faces, and two dwarfs fell straight down as soon as they moved their hands.Na Erka flashed out to support the two Dwarves' corpses, allowing them to lean against the boulder.
It looked as if they had fallen asleep.
He also used this sword to adjust their breathing.
When the two Dwarves continuously struck their throats, all of their battle qi erupted, directly destroying their opponent's vitality.
Although it looked light, it actually consumed a lot of energy.Na Erka meditated for a long time before slowly heading deeper into the valley.The night was quiet, and the Dwarves, who had always been happy, were no longer as noisy as before.The Dwarves' residences would usually open huge stone caves on the cliffs and dig deep through the mineral veins.
Some Dwarves' underground nests could last for dozens of kilometers, but since the Dwarves' population was small, it was obvious that they couldn't do such a massive job.
However, there were many holes on the cliffs on both sides of the valley.
At this moment, in the valley, one could already see the lights on the cliffs..The entrance was extremely narrow, but the valley was very wide.
Under the moonlight, ancient stone steles could be seen everywhere.Dwarves were known throughout the world for their construction, forging, and mechanisms.
Na Erka cautiously walked forwards.
Along the way, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The Dwarves had indeed declined.
Although the valley was full of mechanisms, some of the classic traps were simply crude and weren't as powerful as they were when they were at their peak.In the night sky, Dulin quickly climbed down from the cliff with a great ax on his back.
Dwarves were born with stones, and climbing up the cliffs in the night sky was like walking on flat ground.Du Lin had just reached adulthood not long ago, so he had the qualifications to pick up a weapon and have a name.One of the clan elders once said that a person's name could differentiate him from others and other things, so it was sacred.
It was just like how dwarves lived, separating themselves from elves and humans.The name was glory.
Only when Dwarves reached adulthood would they have a name.
Only then would they be able to possess weapons to become fearless warriors and gain glory on the battlefield.
They could also gain respect in the process of opening mountains and picking rocks.The elder had already died, but his words did not falter.
At that time, the tribe had already settled down in this deep mountain.
There were very few people here, but there were many demonic beasts hidden there.
In order to survive the tribe's Dwarves, they were not afraid of death.
They threw away their blood and lives and exterminated the demonic beasts that occupied this place.
They built this place into a paradise.
They did not know which battle that elder had gone through and returned to the mountains..However, it didn't take long before another gnome tried to snatch the place that the dwarves had used up their blood to survive.
The two sides continued to clash.
A dwarves was enough to deal with several gnomes that had yet to develop their intelligence, but the gnomes that had always been looked down upon had extremely high reproductive power.
For so many years, the dwarves had paid a considerable amount of cost but were unable to drive away the gnomes, and were still harassed from time to time.However, what made Dulin happy and puzzled was that the goblins seemed to have disappeared recently.
Could it be because they had moved away?
This way, the tribe wouldn't have to prepare for war at all times.
Then, he would have the time to tidy up his residence and prepare for Ai Liya's wedding..These disgusting gnomes.
They didn't know how to cultivate or build buildings.
They only knew how to prey on small animals and plunder other people's wealth.
It had been a long time since they last saw Ai Liya.
Dulin couldn't help but speed up his pace as he imagined Ai Liya's moving face.The entrance of the valley was visible.Ever since they settled down here, the tribe had arranged for special guards here every day.
The first half of the tribe's soldiers were all stationed here to guard against demonic beasts, allowing others to rest and work in peace.
After the demonic beasts were wiped out, there was no need for them to work so hard.Although the gnome attacked from time to time, it was completely organized.
It would only cause a ruckus and rush over.
If they were to be discovered a few miles away, the warriors in the tribe would have enough time to complete the equipment battle.Dulin called out from afar and told the guards that he had returned.
Since the goblins had disappeared recently, everyone could take a break.However, why didn't the guard at the entrance respond?Du Lin walked closer, but there was a trace of unease in his heart.
The closer he got to the valley entrance, the more uneasiness he felt.
He held his battle axe in his hand, but his feet didn't stop as he walked towards the valley entrance.The Ancient Battle Axe was an ancient item that had been passed down in the tribe many years ago.
However, the blades of the Ancestral Axe were still as sharp as before.
Du Lin didn't know why, but at this moment, he suddenly recalled that even if there were too many youths in the tribe, they wouldn't be able to achieve this level of smelting and forging.
After all, it was difficult for over 200 tribes to survive.
Their clothing and weapons were extremely precious, and how many chances did they have to concentrate on smelting and forging?
Even ale wine could only be used during the tribe's holidays..Dulin also didn't understand why he would think so wildly when danger lurked.
He shook his head and expelled these distracting thoughts from his mind.Suddenly, moonlight flashed, and a figure rushed forwards.His figure was fast and soundless, but Dulin was already prepared.
With a loud roar, his axe slashed out sideways.The opponent naturally wouldn't clash head on with the heavy battle axe.
The longsword drew an arc and pointed at Du Lin's throat.
Du Lin took a step back and then waved his axe.Since the beginning of time, Dulin had always been brave and conceited.
However, at this moment, his opponent was only a sword, but it was as sharp as the moonlight, and he couldn't breathe.
However, Dwarves had always had a heavy blood energy, so they would rather die than be afraid.
Seeing the longsword stab, Dulin didn't resist.
Instead, he swung his axe straight at his opponent's shoulder.
Even if he died, he would still injure his opponent.Du Lin's roar echoed far and wide.
At this moment, the light in the valley flickered and heavy footsteps sounded.
It was clear that the warriors of the tribe were rushing over here.His opponent's body flashed, and his longsword slashed across Dulin's leg.
The white radiance of his battle qi lit up, and then vanished.
Dulin felt an unstoppable force, and the thin armor on his leg was torn like a layer of sheep's skin, and blood gushed out..Chaotic footsteps and angry roars were heard.
The opponent didn't want to fight at all.
His figure flew out and instantly disappeared into the night.
