Chapter 369: Oldman Small Town (1/2)
Chapter 369: Oldman Small Town
Kanun was an expert that could compare to the peak experts of the Southern Summer Country like the Refined Ruler and the Burning Sun Ruler, but in this Forest of Chaos, he could only be considered a third rate expert.
The War Hounds Kingdom’s Fang King with a cultivation in the 3rd True Spirit Layer was not even a match for Vivian, so there was no suspense in this fight at all.Chu Tian could have just sent Vivian alone because with the «Void Escaping» special nature, as long as the attacks did not surpass a certain threshold, they would not have any effects on Vivian no matter how many attacks there were.Therefore, as long as the little fox found Kanun’s position, Vivian going in alone would have a chance of killing him.
This was not an especially hard or dangerous mission.
Of course, in order to prevent Kanun from using any special techniques to escape, the dwarves thought Chu Tian was risking himself to participate in this battle.In order to kill more people and cause more chaos, Chu Tian brought the others with him. After all, this little effort and risking one’s life to help made a large difference in the dwarves’ eyes.
Vivian’s spatial attacks consumed too much energy, so she was not destined to be someone that could fight group battles, she could only be responsible for killing important targets.In terms of killing large amounts of enemies, she could not compare to Chen Bingyu.
“The count is dead!”
“The count is dead!”
When Kanun was sliced into pieces, the entire spider people army fell into chaos.The spider people could easily pass information through their silks, but sometimes this could cause trouble.For example when fear explode, it could easily add fuel to the flames.
The spider people army had an average strength in the 9th Body Refinement Layer and the overall battle strength of the army was even above that of the Southern Summer Storm Cavalry.The tunnel was filled with the spider clan’s traps and the defenses left behind by the dwarves, so if they could calm down, they could fight with their current superiority and defend this mine.
But in a world with a large variance in personal strength, experts were not just the leader of armies, there were almost equivalent to a spiritual prop.When leaders were killed, the moral would be completely destroyed.
“Kill, disrupt their formations!”
Chu Tian did not need to give the order as Chen Bingyu and Dongfang Haoran charged forward like two meteors.Two peak 9th Awakened Soul Layer experts, both of whom had powerful attacks and defenses, unless they met True Spirit Realm experts or they used up all their spirit energy, it would be hard to beat them.
The Spirit Insects were not fearless like the Spirit Beasts.After these people killed four-five hundred people and their spirit energy had been consumed so their attacks were weakened, the spider people army’s generals began to control the situation as they began to fight back.
But before their resistance could even begin.
“Damn insects!We’ll show you the dwarves’ rage!”
The angry dwarves opened the front door and charged in to take back their home.The dwarves wildly attacked the spider army without any fear of death. The spider army’s attention was held by Chu Tian’s group, so when the dwarves charged in killing form their back, this caught the spider people army off guard.
Fear filled the air once again.
The spider army’s morale had completely collapsed and it couldn’t be gathered again.
If it was only several experts, they could win after they expended their spirit energy.Now that several thousand dwarves were attacking them, even if the spider army had the advantage, their morale was not the same.This mine tunnel was the dwarves’ homeland, their ancestral inheritance, and the basis of their making a living, so it was worth them putting their lives down for it.This was just a stolen region for the spider army, their leader was already dead, and this region did not have any meaning, so there was no need of them to sacrifice their lives for it.
In the end, when the battle ended.
Less than a third of the spider army escaped and the others were all killed by the dwarves in the mine.
Not even a tenth of the dwarves had injuries and had obtained this kind of glorious victory, this was all depending on the help of these five outsiders.The dwarves were straightforward, so of course they wouldn’t go back on their word.
The dwarf chief led several dwarven elders to sincerely thank Chu Tian.He then immediately said, “We have taken inventory of the warehouse and all the dwarven weapons and equipment have been taken by those damn fellows.”
The dwarf chief felt very hurt when he said this.That was the high level items of two-three generations of dwarves and now it had all be stolen, how could they not feel hurt, “Most of the materials are still here, so according to the agreement, half of it will be used as a commision.This is the reward you deserve!”
The dwarves’ words gave them a bit of information.
“Kanun moved away all the equipment forged by the dwarves?”Chu Tian emphasized asking this question. Of course he believed the dwarves because he believed the dwarves would not lie to others, “That could mean there is another power behind Kanun.What are the dwarves planning to do now that you’ve recaptured the Oldman Mines?”
It wasn’t just possible, it was certain!
“No matter who is behind him, the dwarves are not afraid!”The dwarf chief firmly announced like a sacred vow, “The tenacious dwarves will not give up our homeland even to the final drop of blood!”
Truly a muscle brain, there was no medicine for this fellow!
Chu Tian said in a tentative voice, “Actually, I have an idea.If the dwarves can accept it, perhaps you can guard your territory and the Oldman Mine will be several times more prosperous as before.
The dwarves were in a bit of disbelief.
“I’ve never lied to others and definitely would not deceive the friendly dwarves.”Chu Tian revealed a smile and his eyes were clearer than a spring in the moonlight, “I believe the dwarf’s mine is already revealed.Does the chief think the same?”
The chief gave silent agreement.
There were at least seven-eight powers that already knew the location of the mine.
Chu Tian continued by saying, “According to the dark forest principle, the Oldman Mine is now a torch in the dark forest, so it will attract many countless hunters and enemies in the dark.The dwarves are righteous, so they can only defend and can’t attack others, does the chief agree to this?”
The chief silently agreed once again.
“The dwarves are not willing to let go of their home even if they face extinction.This is actually a very hard thing to accomplish, after all, to defend your homes, just bravery and determination is not enough.”Chu Tian poured a bucket of cold water over the dwarves first before presenting his idea, “This situation cannot become any worse, so why not take the initiative to advertise the mine and use this chance to obtain alliances?Why don’t you unite some smaller powers and form an Oldman Small Town? You have to know, the Oldman Mine has already been looted once and its position is known by everyone, so it will help protect a little town. This is because the only person following the dark forest principle is not just you all.”
The Oldman Mine had already been exposed.
Any small and weak power in the dark forest had to hide themselves, there was no escape once they exposed themselves.They either had to escape or wait for death. If the dwarves tenaciously held on, they would be swallowed by others eventually.
