Dispute

A voice rang out.

"Hey, hey, boss, look quickly, there are some monsters here?"

Mo Li looked up and saw a man with a peculiar style, holding a dagger, speaking to another man next to him, the man with a tongue stud.

"Indeed, a talking slime, that's a rare breed, and the monster next to him looks like an Earth Dragon. It should be worth a lot of money."

This came from a man with pointed ears and a gaunt face, who looked like trouble.

Hearing this, Mo Li narrowed his eyes.

"These guys really don't know their place. Anyone dares to covet them."

"Ah Li, I seriously suspect these guys have bad intentions."

Rimuru approached Mo Li and said.

"Let's keep watching. I want to see how clueless they really are."

Mo Li said, narrowing his eyes.

"Boss, why don't we capture them and sell them on the black market? We should make a fortune."

The man with the tongue stud said to their boss.

"That's a good idea. You two, get it done quickly. Don't cause any trouble."

The one called boss said at this moment.

"Alright, leave it to us, boss, you can trust me."

The man with the pointed ears and gaunt face patted his chest and promised.

Rimuru was bewildered.

"What's going on? Didn't they say disputes aren't allowed in the Dwarf Kingdom? Why do they still dare to act?"

Rimuru said with uncertainty.

"They aren't breaking the rules. We haven't entered the city yet, so we haven't entered the Dwarf Kingdom. The Dwarf Kingdom won't manage these affairs."

Mo Li's tone was somewhat low.

At this moment, the villainous duo walked up to Mo Li and Rimuru.

"Hey, you pests, be sensible and hand over your belongings quickly. Surrender obediently, and if you can make us happy, we might even give you a quick death, even if we can't let you off the hook."

Their tone was filled with threats and provocation.

"Ah Li, they seem like the typical background villains from those novels. They look like extras. This is the first time I've seen them."

Rimuru, far from being scared, excitedly said to Mo Li with shining eyes.

"Speaking rationally, they aren't like them, they are them."

Mo Li nodded in agreement, stroking his chin.

"What are you low-class monsters talking about? Not only are you low-class, you're also trash. How dare you look down on us. You're dead."

One of the villainous duo members said.

Hearing these words, a cold glint flashed in Mo Li's eyes.

"These people are really asking for death."

Mo Li had originally just wanted to teach them a lesson so they wouldn't dare to offend him, but they said things they shouldn't have.

"Ah Li, I'm going to kill them."

Even the usually good-tempered Rimuru was a little angry.

"No need, I'll do it. Killing these people, I'm afraid it would dirty your hands."

Mo Li's voice was filled with coldness and killing intent.

"Damn, you low-class monsters are quite fierce. You want to kill us? I'm standing right here, see how you'll kill me."

The skinny guy with the tongue stud continued to speak arrogantly.

"You brought this upon yourselves, don't blame me."

Mo Li said indifferently.

As Mo Li spoke, he unleashed an extremely powerful aura, like that of a Demon King, instantly crushing everyone present to the ground.

At this moment, they realized they had provoked the wrong person. Just as they wanted to beg for mercy, they found they couldn't speak.

A majestic voice echoed in their minds.

"Confused as to why you can't speak? I sealed your mouths because they stink. I feared it would taint my ears."

"This Silence Spell is quite effective. It seems this Immortal Arts Control is not bad."

Mo Li mused internally.

"In your next life, keep your eyes open and strive to be a good person."

Then, Mo Li said with a cold expression.

Then, dozens of Rock Spears materialized and shot towards them.

Soon, under the assault of the Rock Spears, the few of them were instantly turned into dice, dead beyond death.

Everyone present was greatly startled by Mo Li's actions.

This kind of strength was definitely not that of an ordinary person.

"The Rock Spears he conjured are so cool."

"Not just cool, but powerful too."

"What race do you think he is?"

"Looking at him, he seems like he's from the Dragon Race."

"I think so too."

"Alright, stop discussing. Didn't you see he's looking over here?"

The surrounding people were chattering amongst themselves.

"Ah Li, are you alright?"

At this moment, Rimuru finally snapped out of it and rushed to Mo Li's side, asking with concern.

"What could happen to me? They're the ones who should be worried."

Mo Li said with a calm expression.

"Ah Li, are we going to be okay?"

Looking at the surrounding gazes, Rimuru said with some worry.

"Don't worry, they brought this upon themselves."

Mo Li said calmly.

"Besides, like I said earlier, we haven't reached the Dwarf Kingdom yet. Their rules don't apply to us."

Mo Li explained to Rimuru.

"Moreover, they were in the wrong this time. We were merely acting in self-defense, and I don't believe the Dwarf Kingdom would offend you and me for a few ants."

Mo Li's tone was filled with confidence.

"But..."

Rimuru wanted to say more.

"Alright, no more 'buts'. Hurry up and get back in line. Don't forget our mission."

Mo Li reminded him.

At this moment, a few dwarves approached.

"May we ask what happened here?"

The leading dwarf soldier said.

"Gobta, I'll leave the explanation to you."

Mo Li said to Gobta beside him.

"Yes, Lord Morax."

Gobta quickly stepped forward to explain.

"Alright, Rimuru, let's get back in line. I'll leave the rest to Gobta."

Mo Li said, picking Rimuru up.

"Okay. Ah Li."

Rimuru responded.

"My lords, we have understood the situation. To express our apologies, please follow me. I will lead the way for you."

The dwarf soldier in front said.

"Oh, so we don't have to wait in line anymore."

Mo Li asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No need, please follow me."

The dwarf soldier said respectfully.

As expected, no matter which world you went to, the strong always received preferential treatment. Mo Li had no doubt that if his strength hadn't surpassed that of the people just now, the dwarf soldier wouldn't have bothered with them at all. Now that they knew Mo Li's strength, they were immediately trying to curry favor.

"Alright, then lead the way."

Mo Li said calmly.

The dwarf soldier then led Mo Li and the others through the queue, preparing to head to the Dwarf Kingdom.

"Hey, why do they get to skip the line?"

A Pig-headed Demi-human who had just arrived and was still in line said.

"You better shut your mouth. See that group of dice on the ground? If you want to become dice, I won't stop you."

A tiger-headed demi-human in front of him said.
