Julian was exhausted from the long battle, and the arm wielding the sword seemed to have lost its senses, and could only numbly repeat the swing and swing again.One by one, the gnomes died under his sword, and the corpses were quickly dragged away by the other gnomes, Julian's eyes were empty, his expression was blank, his beautiful face was already stained with blood, and the whole person seemed to fall into a state of out-of-body experience.Phew!
Suddenly, a robe gnome let out a strange scream, and the gnome who was fighting them suddenly stopped, and then rushed backwards like a tide, disappearing into the grass.Julian's swinging of his sword slashed several times before he could react, and for some reason, the group of long-haired gnomes retreated, ignoring the dirt on the ground, and sat down, gasping for air.Owen was not in good shape, this kind of long battle did not pose much threat to his physical strength, but it was very mentally exhausting, not to mention, he had to spare a little energy to ensure Julian's safety.Even if these dwarfs are some goods that can be solved with their eyes closed, he didn't dare to relax, for fear that if he had an accident due to his negligence, it would be too late to regret it.Relatively speaking, Clara's state is better, but such a protracted battle has caused serious wear and tear on the joints in her body, and after going out this time, it is estimated that she will have to find someone to repair it once, and I am afraid it will be a lot of consumption.Why did they suddenly retreat?
Clara asked, puzzled.Don't look at the three of them looking at it with ease, but if this level of battle continues for a few more hours, there will definitely be some flaws in the defenses of the three of them.And if there is a problem with their defensive circle, the subsequent reaction will definitely lead to even worse consequences, and maybe all three of them will stay here.Clara's question was unanswered, neither Owen nor Julian understood why the other had suddenly retreated when they had the upper hand, but the answer to this question was soon presented to them, and when the sound of the thin ropes in the grass faded away and finally disappeared, the dark night suddenly turned back to day.Julian collapsed on the ground, his breath filled with a strong smell of blood, he half-squinted, looked at the shining sun in the sky, and said lightly: It seems that these dwarfs are afraid of light and can only appear at night.As the day wore on, Julian and the others were surprised to find that the weeds that Owen had cleared last night were growing back at an unnatural rate, and in the blink of an eye, the clearing they had cleared was restored to its original state.The blood on the ground quickly evaporated, and the ground became dry and hard, as if the dawn of day had refreshed the grassland, and everything was restored to its original state.Smelling the fresh scent of plants and trees around him, if it weren't for the large stains left on his body, Julian would even wonder if what happened last night was his own dream?
This steppe is so strange.Julian said in a deep voice, his two good-looking eyebrows furrowed tightly.Owen looked around, inexplicably having the illusion that they had been circling in the same place since they entered the meadow.He couldn't help but jump high, everything around him was exactly the same as yesterday, there were no markers, he couldn't tell the direction, except for the boundless grassland, there was no extra color to see.Since Julian and his group did not leave immediately after a battle last night, Owen cleared a piece of land, straightened the tent, and took Julian inside.He stuffed the man into his sleeping bag, and in Julian's confused expression, he covered his eyes and said in a muffled voice: Sleep!
Julian:???
Can you still sleep at such a time?
Julian looked at Owen in surprise.Or else?
I didn't sleep last night, I didn't sleep during the day, what would you do if there was still a fight at night?
Owen asked rhetorically.Julian was about to say something, when he heard Owen continue: Don't tell me that you can go a few days without sleep now, and you can hold on for a day or two, who knows how long we will stay in this ghost place?
If possible, you must take time to rest and remember, try to keep your body in the best condition, only in this way can you better face challenges and crises.Julian tugged at the corners of his mouth: Is this your experience?
Owen was silent for a moment: I just saw something again, I seemed to be fighting a lot of people in a closed place, many people died, I was one of the people who survived, I learned this truth there, and with this one, I killed an opponent.Julian opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, he guessed that the images were probably Owen fighting after entering the Forsaken Lands, and he knew how brutal the fighting there was.He silently took Owen into his arms, inexplicably a little distressed, his Owen had paid too much in order to get today's status, he couldn't go back to the past to comfort his soul, he could only soothe his body now.In the corner where Julian couldn't see, Owen slightly hooked the corners of his lips, this trick is really tried and tested here by Julian!

The next night, Owen, who was satisfied with his wishes, walked out of the tent with a refreshed face.Clara, who was in charge of guarding not far away, glanced at her master, well, radiant, it seemed that this nap was working well.What do you think?
What's the situation?
Owen didn't know what Clara was thinking, so he asked casually.Clara shook her head, and Owen fell into deep thought, the daytime of this prairie is unbelievably peaceful, where did those gnomes who suddenly appeared at night come from?
What are you thinking?
Julian changed his clothes and walked out of the tent, and he saw Owen looking thoughtful.I wonder where those gnomes hide during the day.Julian also frowned when he heard this, they also walked a short distance during the day yesterday, it stands to reason that there are so many dwarfs, if they live on this grassland, it is impossible to leave no traces, they have walked this way, and they have not found any traces of living creatures at all, no matter from which point of view it is very unreasonable.Let's take a look around?
Owen said.Julian didn't have any opinions, and the two quickly put away the tent and explored three different directions with Clara.In order to prevent accidents, every once in a while, the three of them had to meet their heads, and they walked forward while exploring, and before they knew it, another few hours had passed.Julian glanced at the sky, where the day was always shining, the sun seemed to be fixed in the middle of the sky, and the transition between day and night was only for a moment, and there was no way to tell the current time from the perspective of the sun.Their quest yielded no results, and the gnomes didn't even have a clue left.You've seen the vision this morning, and do you think it's this refresh that has covered up all the traces?
Julian asked Owen.Owen frowned and said, "If that's the case, what are we going to do?"
Julian couldn't help but be a little worried, the biggest advantage of these gnomes is their seemingly endless number, it stands to reason that even those beasts know that when the gap between the two sides is too large, retreat is the best choice to keep the group, but this group of gnomes who already have a social form seems to be not afraid of death, no matter how many they kill, the remaining ones can still ignore fear and fight desperately.Let's take a look at it again tonight, I have a gut feeling that if we can unravel the secrets of these gnomes, we should be able to leave this grassland.Julian said.Owen nodded silently, this grassland seems to be endless, but this in itself is impossible, then the biggest possibility is that group of weird gnomes, if they want to break the peace here, they can obviously only open a gap from the gnomes.The group did not continue to walk aimlessly, but chose a camp early, leveled the ground, and Julian dug a circle of pits with great interest, and then put the stored oil into it.Because of the touching height of the group of gnomes, Julian really didn't have much effort to dig this pit, and with the help of Owen and Carrara, they dug three times in one go, and it is estimated that they can give the group of dwarfs a big surprise at night.After eating and drinking, Julian estimated the time and prepared both Owen and Clara, and about ten minutes after they were ready for battle, the sky was dark, and the full silver moon hung high in the air, sprinkling a faint glow.Before the gnomes appeared, Julian seized the opportunity to take a closer look at the moon in the sky, the shape of which was no different from what he had seen outside, and as round as yesterday, as if it had been reflected in a human image.The sound of a whisper was heard again in the surrounding grass, and Julian looked grim: It's coming.Owen and Clara were already prepared, and Clara even burst into the grass where the sound came, made a surprise attack, and then quickly retreated.Suddenly there was a terrible cry from the grass, which was very harsh, and very different from the howl they had made yesterday.Julian was surprised at what Clara had done, causing the gnomes to scream incessantly, when she saw her quickly jump out of the grass, carrying a dwarf in her hand.The dwarf who was captured by Clara struggled desperately, revealing a big mouth full of sharp teeth under the huge mask that could not be removed, he kept turning back to bite Clara, but was pulled back again and again by the other party, and later, Clara felt annoyed, and simply twisted his spine, so that it could only hang on her hand like a piece of rotten meat.Luckily, I happened to meet a man in a robe, and I caught it easily.Clara saw Julian looking at her in surprise, pushed her glasses and said calmly.Let me see.Julian hurriedly took the dwarf, checked it up and down, and felt that the face was a little in the way, so he simply cut it off.Oh!
When the mask was removed, the gnome let out a loud scream, and then its entire body suddenly collapsed into a cloud of black gas, quickly surging towards the gnomes that emerged from the grass.Julian was caught off guard and could only watch as the black gas attached to a very strong dwarf, and then the dwarf immediately screamed, the hair on his body became thicker and longer, and a robe was woven on him, and the mask on his face became larger, and at the same time the mask appeared more colorful.This change only happened for a moment, and when the black qi was possessed, the surrounding gnomes all scrambled, as if they wanted the black qi to attach themselves to them.When the dwarf was possessed by the black qi and changed, even the gnomes who came to attack Julian stopped and looked at the changed gnomes with burning eyes.Through the mask, Julian saw the eyes that flashed with greed and hunger, and they looked at the black possessed dwarf as if they had seen something delicious, and he couldn't help but shiver.When the strongest dwarf transformed into a long-robed gnome, he glared at Julian viciously, and then quickly retreated to the rear, fearing that he would be in danger again.Julian: Emmm because of the blowing!
Unable to allow him to think about it, the gnomes who came again launched an attack, but before they could run to the place, the pit that Julian had dug for them in advance played a role, and countless gnomes screamed and fell into the pit, and the later gnomes could not see what was happening in front of them, and continued to go forward and fall into the nearest Clara directly flicked her wrist, opened the muzzle, and shot out a small fireball, and a fire suddenly ignited in the pit, burning the gnomes who fell into it.The newly-transformed robed gnome let out a scream that everyone could hear the anger in it.Zhu Li's peace of mind moved slightly, when he was fighting yesterday, those gnomes were killed and injured so badly, and he didn't see any sound from these robed gnomes, what stimulated him this time?
Due to the existence of the flame pit, the group of gnomes slowed down for a moment, and through the flames, through the masks, Julian stared at those empty eyes with a blank face.There was no fear, no anger, not even life in that gaze!
You say Julian touches his chin: Are these gnomes alive?
Owen glanced at the dwarf indifferently, he could move, he could scream, he could attack, but was such a creature alive?
You mean, they're undead creatures?
I don't know.Julian spreads his hands irresponsibly: he just thinks that their existence is a bit strange and unreasonable.Although many things in this world have subverted his three views on the earth, this long-haired dwarf has even subverted the three views here.Ever thought their masks were weird?
Julian couldn't help but ask, remembering that he had just lifted the mask and the robed dwarf was dead.It's a little weird.Owen replied that he had also seen the scene just now, so he naturally felt strange.Julian picked up the mask that he had just thrown to the ground and looked at it, the color on the mask was very conspicuous, and the painted group was also very strange, he glanced at the gnome in the robe, and was surprised to find that the other party was also staring directly at the mask in his hand.Want?
He picked up the mask and shook it, and found that the gnome's gaze was really swaying from side to side with the mask, and the intention was not too obvious.Julian was amused, and with a wave of his hand, he threw the mask into the outermost pit, burning it into a pile of ashes.Gnome in Gondola: Clara, who watched this scene: Whew!
The robed gnome let out another scream, and the anger in this scream was even stronger than the one before.He spun around in annoyance, as if he wanted to rush through the flames to kill Julian, but he didn't dare to move, and could only drive the other ordinary gnomes to keep filling the pit with dirt, trying to extinguish the flames.Julian laughed and grimaced at the gnome.Owen couldn't cry or laugh on the side, and hugged him and kissed him: naughty.Julian kissed him fiercely for a while, and smacked his lips after kissing: I just like the way he looks at me and can't kill me.In a few moments, the flames in the outer pit were extinguished by the hard work of the gnomes, who jumped over the pit and pounced on Julian, who looked at Julian with hatred in his eyes with a thick glint in his eyes.Julian didn't care at all, he had to do it anyway, and it would be better if he could the other party to death.As the gnomes approached, Julian turned on the mechanism, and a second pit appeared, and another group of gnomes fell into it.Clara skillfully lit the fire, and the flames burned brightly, and through the flames, Julian could see how angry the robed gnome was, and kept making all kinds of strange screams.Julian gouged out his ears and shouted, "I said you don't have any new tricks?"
That's it, that's it?
The robed gnome obviously didn't know what he was talking about, but he could tell from his expression that he was defiant, and he clenched his fist and grabbed the passing gnome and took a bite on his neck.The hapless dwarf screamed, and the gnomes next to him all ignored it, but they didn't know if it was an illusion, and those gnomes seemed to be a little farther away from the robed gnome.The flame in the second pit is extinguished, and Julian opens the third pit, and Clara lights the fire, and the gnomes fall into it.
