I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]

Chapter 130 Night 2

Owen, who was satisfied and got his wish, walked out of the tent with a refreshed face.

Clara, who was in charge of guarding not far away, glanced at her master, um, her face was radiant, and it seemed that the afternoon nap worked well.

"How is it? What's the matter?" Owen didn't know what Clara was thinking, so he asked casually.

Clara shook her head, and Owen fell into deep thought. The daytime in this grassland is incredibly peaceful. Where did those dwarfs who suddenly appeared at night come from?

"What are you thinking?" Julian changed his clothes and came out of the tent, and saw Owen looking thoughtful.

"Wanting where those gnomes hide during the day."

Julian frowned when he heard the words. They walked a short distance yesterday during the day. It stands to reason that if there are so many dwarves living on this grassland, it is impossible to leave no traces. When I came here, I didn't find any traces of biological life at all, which was unreasonable from any angle.

"Let's take a look around?" Owen said.

Naturally, Julian had no objections. The two quickly put away the tent and explored in three different directions with Clara.

In order to prevent accidents, every once in a while, the three of them would meet again, and proceeded while exploring in this line. Before they knew it, several hours passed.

Julian glanced at the sky. The sun here is always bright and bright. The sun seems to be fixed in the center of the sky. The transition between day and night is only an instant, and it is impossible to tell the current time from the perspective of the sun.

Their investigations did not yield any results, and those dwarves did not even leave any clues.

"You have also seen the vision this morning. Do you think this kind of 'refresh' has covered up all the traces?" Julian asked Owen.

Owen frowned and said, "If this is the case, what should we do?"

Julian couldn't help but worry a little. The biggest advantage of these dwarves 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 ethnic group, but this A group of dwarves who already had a social form seemed to be fearless of death. No matter how many they killed, the remaining ones could still ignore fear and fight desperately.

"Let's observe again tonight. I have an intuition that as long as we can find out the secrets of these dwarves, we should be able to leave this grassland." Julian said.

Owen nodded silently. This grassland seems endless, but this is impossible in itself, so the biggest possibility is the group of weird dwarves. If you want to break the peace here, you can only open a gap from the dwarfs.

The group of people did not continue to walk forward aimlessly, but chose a camp early and leveled the ground. Julian also dug a circle of traps with great interest, and then put the stored oil into it.

Because the height of the group of dwarves is impressive, Julian did not spend much effort digging the trap. With the help of Owen and Carrara, they dug three times in one go, and it is estimated that they will be able to give the group of dwarves a big one at night. The 'surprise'.

After eating and drinking, Julian estimated the time and got Owen and Clara ready. About 10 minutes after they were ready to fight, the sky suddenly darkened, and the silver full moon hung high in the air, sprinkled Under a faint brilliance.

Before the gnomes appeared immediately, Julian seized the opportunity to observe the moon in the sky carefully. The shape of this moon was no different from what he saw outside, and it was as round as yesterday, as if it had been reflected by someone. The image remains unchanged.

There was another thin rustling sound from the surrounding grass, and Julian's expression became serious: "Here we come."

Owen and Clara had already made preparations, and Clara even rushed into the grass that made the sound, made a surprise attack, and then retreated quickly.

Suddenly there was a shrill cry from the grass, which was very ear-piercing, and very different from the howl they made yesterday.

Julian was wondering what Clara had done, causing the group of dwarves to scream, when she quickly jumped out of the grass with a dwarf in her hand.

The dwarf captured by Clara struggled desperately, a big mouth full of sharp teeth was exposed under the huge mask that could not be removed. He kept turning his head to bite Clara, but was pulled back again and again by the other party. , In the end, Clara felt annoyed, and simply broke his spine, so that his whole body could only hang on her hands like a piece of rotten meat.

"Lucky, I happened to meet someone wearing a robe, and I caught it back." Seeing Julian looking at her in surprise, Clara pushed her glasses and said calmly.

"Let me see." Julian quickly took the dwarf, checked it up and down, felt that the mask was a bit in the way, and simply cut it off.

"Ow!"

When the mask was cut off, the dwarf let out a loud cry, and then his whole body suddenly disintegrated into a cloud of black air, which quickly rushed towards the dwarves emerging from the grass.

Julian was caught off guard, and could only watch as the cloud of black energy attached to a very strong dwarf, and then the dwarf immediately screamed, the hair on his body became thicker and longer, and a long robe was woven around him , and the mask on his face also became bigger, and at the same time more bright colors appeared on the mask.

This change only happened in an instant. When the cloud of black energy possessed him, the surrounding dwarfs all fought for it, as if they wanted the black energy to attach to them.

When the dwarf was possessed by the black air and changed, even the dwarves who came to attack Julian and the others stopped, looking at the changed dwarf with burning eyes.

Through the mask, Julian saw that pair of greedy and hungry eyes. They looked at the dwarf possessed by black air as if they had seen some delicious food, which made him shiver.

When the strongest dwarf transformed into a long-robed dwarf, he gave Julian a vicious look, and then quickly retreated to the rear, fearing that he would be in danger again.

Julian: emmm... listen to Influx!

Not allowing him to think about it, the dwarfs flooded in again and launched an attack. However, before they could reach the place, the trap that Julian had dug for them in advance played a role, and countless dwarves fell into the pit screaming. , the later dwarves couldn't see what happened in front of them, and continued to fall in one after another——

The closest Clara flicked her wrist, opened the muzzle of the gun, and shot out a stream of small fireballs. A fire ignited in the pit, and burned all the dwarves who fell into it.

The newly transformed robed gnome let out a scream, and everyone could hear the anger in that scream.

Julian's heart moved slightly. During the battle yesterday, those dwarves suffered so much casualties, and they didn't see any noise from these robed dwarves. What stimulated him this time?

Due to the existence of the flame pit, the group of dwarfs temporarily slowed down. Through the flames and through the masks, Julian stared blankly at those empty eyes.

There was no fear in those eyes, no anger, not even—lifeliness!

"You said..." Julian touched his chin: "Are these gnomes alive?"

Owen glanced at the dwarf indifferently. He could move, bark, and attack, but was such a creature alive?

"You mean, they are undead creatures?"

"I don't know." Julian spread his hands irresponsibly: "It's just that their existence is a bit strange, and... it doesn't make sense."

Although many things in this world have subverted his three views on the earth, but this kind of long-haired dwarf will even be subverted here.

"Do you think their masks are weird?" Julian couldn't help asking, remembering that the dwarf in the robe died just after he lifted up the mask.

"It's a bit strange." Owen replied, he also saw the scene just now, so he naturally felt strange.

Julian picked up the mask that he had just thrown on the ground and looked at it. The color on the mask was very conspicuous, and the circle of the painting was also very strange. He glanced at the dwarf in the robe, and was surprised to find that the other party was also staring straight at him. Looking at him—the mask in his hand.

"Want?" He picked up the mask and shook it, and found that the dwarf's eyes were really swaying with the mask, so the intention of wanting it should not be too obvious.

Julian was immediately happy, and then—with a wave of his hand, he threw the mask into the pit on the outermost layer, burning it into a pile of ashes.

Robed Gnome: ...

Clara who watched this scene: ...

"Ow!" The robed dwarf screamed again, and the anger contained in this scream was stronger than the previous one.

He ran around in annoyance, as if he wanted to rush through the flames to kill Julian, but unfortunately he still didn't dare to move. He could only drive other ordinary dwarves to fill the pit with soil, trying to extinguish the flames.

Julian laughed and made a face at the dwarf.

Owen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he embraced him and kissed him: "Naughty."

Julian kissed fiercely for a while, and smacked his lips after the kiss: "I just like the way he sees me as unpleasant and can't kill me."

After a while, the flames in the outer pit were extinguished by the hard work of the dwarves. They jumped over the pit and rushed towards Julian. The dwarf in the robe had a strong malice in his eyes, and looked at Julian with eyes full of anger. hatred.

Julian didn't care at all, he had to do it anyway, and it would be better if he could make the other party mad.

As the dwarves approached, Julian turned on the mechanism, and a second trap suddenly appeared, and a large group of dwarves fell into it.

Clara lit the fire skillfully, and the flames blazed up. Through the flames, Julian could see how angry the dwarf in the robe was, and kept making strange screams.

Julian dug his ears and shouted: "I said you don't have any new tricks? Is that what you call?"

The dwarf in the robe obviously didn't know what he was talking about, but he could guess from his expression that he was provocative. He clenched his fist tightly, grabbed the passing dwarf, and took a bite on his neck.

The unlucky dwarf screamed, and the dwarves next to him turned a blind eye, but I don't know if it was an illusion. Those dwarves seemed to be a little far away from the robed dwarf when they ran.

The flames in the second pit went out, Julian opened the third circle of traps, Clara lit the fire, and the dwarfs fell in.

To be honest, Julian felt sorry for these dwarves. Such a simple trap could trap them three times in a row. I really don’t know if they have brains...
