Chapter 391: The Dwarf’s Hope
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
Survival was the number one priority for people in the underground world.
It didn’t matter who ruled them, as long as they were allowed to live.
The territory was free to manage the underground world, which allowed the underground world to develop to its full potential.
No one paid Jax any attention as he walked through the streets.
The old dwarf didn’t mind. He was nervous and excited. He quickened his pace.
After passing through two streets, he turned right toward a small manor. He ignored the mechanical puppets guarding the door, pushed open the door, and walked straight in.
’’Patriarch!1‘
’’Lord Jax!”
The moment the door of the manor opened, everyone turned to look at him.
The dwarves looked at him expectantly.
In the past, the old dwarf had always felt a little ashamed when facing them.
He knew what his people wore waiting for, but he didn’t have anything to give them.
it was different this time.
He took a deep breath. “Lord Su Wan has returned to the territory. She is visiting Furnace City in a few days. She asked to see us specifically!”
They finally had some hope.
“Praise the Dwarf God! I know we would be recognized by the Lord!”
“I hope the others who refused to join us regret this forever!”
The underground world always had respect for the strong. Everyone knew the legend about the Dark Demon Dragon. The dwarves especially respected him.
The old dwarf waited for the noise to die down. “Everyone, go and rest. You have to rest and gather your strength. You must be ready when Lord Su Wan visits.1’
“Is it ready?1’ asked the old dwarf.
“Yes, but… if we hand that over, wo won’t have anything to offer for a way out,” said a dwarf reluctantly.
The only treasure left behind by their ancestors was the key to unlocking the power of their bloodline!
The old dwarf was silent for a long time.
“Do we have another choice?” asked the old dwarf.
Ever since the Dwarf God had gone into eternal slumber, they had lost their power. They hadn’t found anyone else who could activate the key until now.
With their current situation, the dwarves couldn’t gather enough resources to find a way to activate the key.
Meanwhile, Dark Region City had already begun to annihilate other creatures of the underground world. They were next.
They had no choice but to show their worth and try to survive.
“Why don’t we join Dark Region City?” said one of the dwarves in defeat.
“Dark Region City? They are just pawns of Lord Su Wan and His Majesty, Xu Yuan!” said Jax with contempt.
Everyone knew who actually ruled the underground world.
“Only Lord Su Wan can help us. We need to regain our strength.” Jax sighed.
Jax knew that Lord Su Wan wasn’t reckless and brutal. It was evident in the way she treated the underground world.
“Bring it out!”
The two middle-aged dwarves looked at Jax. They didn’t say anything further.
Ever since their god fell asleep, they no longer had the power to decide their own fate.
The two dwarves brandished a knife and slashed them across their palms. Blood spurted from the wound.
The blood didn’t drop on the ground. Instead, it floated up and met in the air. The two streams of blood fused and turned into a fist-size dwarf statue.
’’Before our god fell asleep, he predicted that we would return to the Crimson Moon once again. But now… that seems unbelievable.” The old dwarf looked at the statue with tears streaming down his face.
Su Wan looked at her territory and felt good. She remembered what her territory used to look like. Now, it was a bustling city with residents, buildings, and horses.
Her efforts were not in vain. The empty spaces would soon be filled, and her territory would be even more efficient.
Su Wan didn’t forget about her drcam. She would make this territory the most important and powerful place in the Overlord Plane.
She walked to the northern city walls. Su Wan realized that she hadn’t visited the swamp for a few days now.
Su Wan flew toward the swamp. She approached the Dark Withered Tree and noticed that its aura was different from before.
Its branches had turned black. They used to be gray. The aura ebbed and flowed. It felt as though a dormant volcano was just waiting for a chance to erupt.
Su Wan opened the attribute panel.
[Dark Withered Tree]
[Boss Unit]
[Level: 541
[Status: Transforming]
The tree had already devoured a huge amount of dark energy and exceeded the limit of transformation.
Su Wan frowned. She didn’t know if this was beneficial.
“My lord.” A twisted face appeared on the huge trunk of the tree.
“Why haven’t you completed your transformation yet?” Su Wan asked.
She had already imbued it with the Dark Divine Blood.
“The transformation will take a long while but don’t worry. I can still control my power.”
As the strongest force in the territory, it would be risky if the Dark Withered Tree fell into a deep sleep.
The Dark Withered Tree was smart. Its level of intelligence was remarkable. However, that was always overlooked by people because of its combat power..
