Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

From the beginning until now, the dwarf had sent more than a hundred elves flying back, but none of them witnessed how he did it.

However, the dwarves didn’t use the Warhammer next to him, otherwise, they would have already picked up their bows and swords.

“Are you elves capable of handling me? Well, forget it, all of you can come at once, so you can’t say 1 didn’t give you a chance.”

The dwarf continued with his trash talk.

Upon hearing this, the elves, their eyes filled with anger, were on the verge of disregarding their principles of combat and launching a collective attack to teach the dwarf a lesson.

“Stop all of you!!!”

A furious shout made them stop in their tracks, and they all stood at attention, saluting.

“Lord Yasen, you’ve returned!”

Yasen walked over with his hands behind his back, looking annoyed, and gave them a fierce glare. These freeloaders couldn’t even defeat a single dwarf, truly bringing shame to his face.

He fixed his gaze on the scruffy dwarf and said unfriendly, “Sir Dwarf, 1 don’t know what brings you into our camp. You’ve intruded without permission and injured many of our warriors. If you can’t provide an explanation, you will pay the price for your reckless actions.”

His words were filled with threats.

So what if this dwarf had some strength?

Could he withstand powerful bows and magic attacks? Could he withstand a sword formation formed by thousands of elven warriors?

Behind them stood a powerful elven empire, and when it came to dealing with the dwindling and struggling dwarves who had lost their last homeland, they didn’t even need to lift a finger. At a mere command, countless races were willing to act as vanguards.

Upon hearing these words, the scruffy dwarf gave a disdainful smile, completely disregarding the implied threat in the words.

This dwarf was none other than Thotmudo, who had returned from the Western Continent. After learning that the Deceiver was the mastermind behind the destruction of the Black Iron Fortress, he traveled day and night to reach the Northern Continent, intending to warn Ji Chen to be cautious of these lunatics.

Back on the New Moon Islands, he heard that the cargo of the Crown of the Ocean was primarily delivered to Maple Harbor. So, he guessed that Ji Chen’s likely destination in the Northern Continent would be Maple Harbor.

Therefore, he inquired along the way and followed various clues until he finally arrived here.

However, these elves were extremely arrogant, and seeing that he was a dwarf who didn’t seem to want to talk much, they treated him with hostility and tried to drive him away in a rude manner.

So, he couldn’t help but take action to teach them a lesson.

But it seemed that in the end, he would have to rely on the elves to find that kid, so for now, he wouldn’t argue too much with them.

In reality, due to the Maple Principality and the elves actively blocking related information, the outside world didn’t know that Ji Chen had provided the location of the Deceiver’s gathering place and secret base in the city. They only knew that the elves had destroyed the base of an evil organization.

In the Maple Principality, which could be called an elven paradise, Thotmudo, as a dwarf, clearly couldn’t obtain more information.

He also had no knowledge of Ji Chen’s specific relationship with the elves, only that there seemed to be a business relationship between them.

He didn’t provoke any more challenges and straightforwardly asked, “Do you know a Lord of Glory named Ji Chen?”

Lord Ji Chen?

A sinking feeling welled up in Yasen’s heart.

What did this dwarf want with Lord Ji Chen?

According to the information they had received, Lord Ji Chen should be visiting the Northern Continent for the first time this time, and he should have been active within the Maple Principality throughout. It was unlikely that he had come into contact with dwarves, and it was highly improbable that he had any connection with them.

Moreover, a figure of his stature would hardly have any dealings with a declining race like the dwarves.

Subconsciously, Yasen was about to say the denial.

But in just that brief moment of hesitation, the thoughtful glint in Thotmudo’s eyes, like that of a clever monkey, was noticed. “Have you met him?”

“I don’t know any Lord of Glory named Ji Chen, Sir, you may have come to the wrong place.”

Yasen denied decisively. He couldn’t admit to this matter, whether it was for Lord Ji Chen’s safety or the friendship between the elves and Lord Ji Chen.

Especially when it was a dwarf who was asking, it was even more impossible to disclose anything.

Seeing this, Thotmudo became even more suspicious. Looking at Yasen, who was desperately trying to hide something, his thoughts began to wander.

He had heard about that kid’s Crown of the Ocean before, and it seemed that there were some business dealings with the elves here.

He was very familiar with the elven temperament—proud, greedy, and pathologically obsessed with any rare treasures. Perhaps the elves in Maple City had their eyes on the treasures brought by that kid and secretly made a move against him.

Otherwise, why would this elf have such a strange expression when mentioning the name Ji Chen?

With his already less-than-favorable impression of elves, combined with what he was witnessing now, Thotmudo instantly thought of the worst-case scenario.

His eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a hint of danger.

“You’d better tell me where that kid is. Otherwise, I don’t mind letting you taste the wrath of a dwarf.”

Yasen widened his eyes, finding it hard to believe what he had just heard.

It had been so long since he became the commander of the Fifth Fleet that he couldn’t remember the last time someone dared to speak to him like this. Just who did this dwarf, who came out of nowhere, think he was?

Sure enough, this dwarf had ill intentions toward Lord Ji Chen!

The elves couldn’t allow their enemies to harm their friend!

In an instant, a strong smell of gunpowder filled the air.

Yasen’s muscles tensed all over, his heart pumping a large amount of blood, carrying a mighty force that flowed through every part of his body. A sharp edge radiated from him, causing a stinging sensation on his skin.

Thotmudo squinted his eyes, a glint of determination flashing in his cloudy eyes. His hand slowly rested on the Warhammer, and a heavy, mountain-like aura surged, seemingly exerting infinite pressure.

Dwarves didn’t point their weapons at others, but when they did, it meant they considered them enemies.

Just as the two sides were about to come to blows.

A group of elves suddenly rushed into the camp from outside, looking somewhat panicked.

“Lord Yasen, it seems something has happened in the depths of the cave where Lord Ji Chen is. Ice is spreading out!”

Hearing this, Yasen’s aura suddenly stagnated. He was about to inquire further when he saw a shadow darting out from his side.

It was the dwarf!

Despite his short legs, this dwarf was incredibly fast. In just a few breaths, he had run hundreds of meters and quickly disappeared from the camp.

Yasen was momentarily stunned, his expression changing dramatically, and he immediately exerted all his strength to chase after him.

Behind him, a large group of elven warriors quickly followed suit. They had witnessed everything and saw that the dwarf appeared highly suspicious, possibly posing a threat to Lord Ji Chen.

Lord Ji Chen was their benefactor, and even if they couldn’t defeat the dwarf, even if it cost them their lives, they would stop him!!!

More than ten minutes ago.

Ji Chen, who was completely unaware of what was happening outside, looked at the sealed metal cage in the center with confusion and uncertainty.

Just as he was preparing to leave, a voice suddenly emanated from within the cage.

“Save me…”

This voice was incredibly hoarse, filled with exhaustion, pain, and extreme weakness, as if it might die in the next moment.

However, within this feeble voice, there was an incredibly powerful aura, like an abyss, like the stars, and it felt like its strength… was at least greater than his current level.

Ji Chen’s expression changed slightly. His mana surged within him, and he summoned a golden gem-encrusted sword – the Sword of Warlords. If anything went wrong, he would immediately use the sword’s accompanying skill to create a protective barrier.

At the same time, he mentally connected with the Void Ring, ready to teleport at any moment to prevent any unexpected events.

At this moment, he was extremely cautious!

After completing these preparations, he felt slightly more at ease and asked in a steady voice.

“Who are you? Why were you imprisoned by the Deceiver here?”

After a moment, the voice rang out again.

“My name is Verena Lana, a follower of the Goddess of War. I am despised by the Deceiver, and they captured me using deceit when I was weak. They have kept me imprisoned here all this time.”

Verena Lana?

A follower of the Goddess of War?

Ji Chen nodded in understanding and continued to ask in a deep voice.

“How long have you been imprisoned here?”

Trapped within the cage and still unseen by Ji Chen, Verena replied.

“I don’t know, probably for several centuries now.”

“They used the ‘Solar Furnace’ to forge this cage that suppresses my powers, binding me with chains of scorching, subjecting me to the constant agony of soul-burning, intending to break my will and faith.”

Soul-burning for centuries?

Well, the Deceiver really was merciless..
