On the western slope.

Roger, having returned, was rapidly ascending along a small path.

Under the cover of night and the chaos, he activated his Ladder Cloud Steps to their fullest extent.

With a few leaps, he approached the summit.

Although the chaos he had just created had successfully destroyed two ballistae, the number of Gray Dwarves was simply too great.

Three ballistae had been successfully brought up and installed in three directions at the summit.

Because of the earlier incident, the remaining Gray Dwarves had clearly increased their vigilance.

They had divided into three teams, centered around the ballistae, providing mutual cover.

This made Roger feel slightly troubled.

Although the Emerald Dragon on the tower attracted most of the attention, there was a lack of cover on the summit.

If he rashly made a move, his position would definitely be exposed, and he would soon be hunted down by the Gray Dwarves.

He couldn't directly fly over using Ladder Cloud Steps.

The Gray Dwarves' wall of bodies tactic made such a reckless idea not only laughable but also deadly.

Unless my Ladder Cloud Steps level could be raised by another one or two levels.

Watching the Gray Dwarves adjust the ballistae closer and closer to completion.

Roger knew that he had to invest a little capital.

At the main entrance of Dragon Tooth Village.

The Gray Dwarves' wailing and howling resounded throughout the area.

Wherever the rolling dragon breath reached, there were only remains and scorched earth.

There were still many Gray Dwarves with tenacious vitality struggling to survive.

However, skin corroded by dragon flames was difficult to heal, and before long, accompanied by excruciating pain, the extremely destructive heat residue would also take their lives.

Under the innate intimidation of the dragon's might, a large number of Gray Dwarves began to hesitate.

This gave the Emerald Dragon hatchling time to free up its hands to deal with the ballistae on both sides.

Clearly, it had also noticed these maliciously intended weapons.

Before long, the hatchling flapped its wings, and with the support of strong air currents, flew directly to the western slope! The Gray Dwarves on the summit hastily adjusted their angles, trying to attack the hatchling with the ballistae.

But the angles were too far off.

The two giant ballista bolts that were fired only intensified the hatchling's anger.

Whoosh! Another burst of dragon breath struck.

Compared to the one in front of the main gate, this burst of dragon breath was much smaller in scale, with a range of only about one-fifth.

Despite this.

The true dragon's fury still endowed the dragon breath with strong destructive power.

In the blink of an eye, a ballista was burned to ashes by the emerald flames.

The nearby ballista was also affected and rendered useless.

Swoosh! In the biting wind, a swift shadow flew like the Grim Reaper claiming a life.

If the hatchling hadn't been small enough to dodge quickly, its wings might have been pierced by this thick ballista bolt!

"Hiss... Awoo!"

The hatchling let out an angry roar.

It suddenly flapped its wings and pounced straight towards the eastern slope where the ballista bolt had been fired!

The gusts of air generated by its flapping wings knocked the nearby Gray Dwarves to the ground.

"Now's the time."

Roger, who had been hiding for a long time, seized the opportunity and threw the projectile in his hand towards the last ballista!

[Elemental Bottle (Fire): High-concentration fire element polymer] [Magic Richness: 11] [Throw/Detonate: Within the effective burning radius, deals 18 points of fire damage/second] [Producer: Roger]

The glass bottle shattered upon hitting the ballista.

A sea of ​​fire, even more exaggerated than the previous Grease + Fire Arrow, soared into the sky!

Many Gray Dwarves didn't even have a chance to scream before they lost their lives in the burning fire element.

"Done!"

Roger clapped his hands with satisfaction.

As long as he ensured that all the ballistas were destroyed, the young dragon would not be in mortal danger.

As long as the young dragon didn't fall.

It would be equivalent to having a super main tank in front, attracting the attention of all the Gray Dwarves.

Roger could naturally do whatever he wanted.

But at this moment, a roaring Gray Dwarf suddenly rushed out of the sea of ​​fire! Surprisingly, even though he was running in the sea of ​​fire, he was not damaged in the slightest! "Is that the Gray Dwarf Chieftain?"

Roger had some impression of him.

The Gray Dwarf Chieftain angrily charged towards Roger.

He held a hand axe in each of his hands, and they looked very sharp.

At this time, Roger noticed the ridiculous hat on his head.

Rather than a hat, it looked more like a "crown".

A bit similar to the attire of ancient Chinese people in his previous life.

Facing the menacing Gray Dwarf Chieftain.

Roger calmly activated Cloud Mist Step, avoiding his frontal charge, and then cast Qi Divination Technique.

[Thief of Martial Arts - Gray Dwarf Chieftain LV13 Health 360] [Trait 1: Rough Stone Skin] [Rough Stone Skin: The skin of Swamp Gray Dwarves is very rough, and most areas are covered by a layer of epidermis with a hardness similar to rock, which gives them extremely strong immunity, especially to physical damage] [Trait 2: Martial Arts Expertise] [Martial Arts Expertise: This Gray Dwarf seems to have had a wonderful opportunity, which has given him considerable martial arts skills]

"What?"

"A Gray Dwarf who knows martial arts?"

Although he felt it was a bit outrageous, when he thought of the hat on his head, Roger quickly accepted this setting.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides were locked in a fierce battle.

This was a monster with an elite template, and its level was one higher than Roger's.

So as soon as they exchanged blows, Roger felt tremendous pressure.

The Gray Dwarf's hand axes were fierce and swift, and if he was accidentally hit, he might lose his life on the spot.

He did indeed possess remarkable martial arts skills.

After a dozen or so exchanges,

Roger grew increasingly alarmed.

This fellow was not only fiercely aggressive, but also handled the details with great finesse.

The transitions between his attacks were also extremely layered.

His fighting style was like a gradually weaving giant net, slowly eroding Roger's space to survive.

Roger quickly realized that if he didn't choose to level up, he might not be a match for this guy!

Even if he did level up, he might not have the chance to kill him with a single blow.

Because he didn't bring the Crimson Moon Blade!

"A Gray Dwarf who knows martial arts is indeed a bit formidable."

"In that case... farewell."

Roger's mind flickered.

His entire body rose from the ground, and with a dashing leap, he made his escape!

If I can't beat him, can't I run? I'm just taking advantage of the fact that Gray Dwarves are naturally short-legged! Roger thought self-righteously.

Who knew that at this moment, a warning suddenly arose in his heart, and a cold wind swept up behind him.

Shriiek!

To avoid this sudden sneak attack, Roger rolled several times on the ground, and even his clothes were torn a bit! He looked back and saw that the Gray Dwarf Chieftain, in order to chase him, had actually thrown the hand axe in his hand! It had to be said that his throwing skills were superb.

If he hadn't reacted in time...

Roger felt a little lingering fear just thinking about it.

Whoosh! Another hand axe was thrown over.

This time, prepared, Roger calmly dodged it.

The Gray Dwarf Chieftain erupted in an angry roar.

Roger stared at him, his eyes filled with a hint of bewilderment: "Why are you being so fierce with me?"

The next second.

He turned around and charged back with his sword! The Qing Fu Sword's light was cold, and in the blink of an eye, it pierced several bloody holes in the Gray Dwarf Chieftain's chest!

"Without your weapon, you really think I'd be afraid of you?"

Roger chuckled.

He originally thought that a Gray Dwarf who knew martial arts would have some brains.

Unexpectedly, he was just a fool.

"What was that? Practice martial arts without training your brain... how does the next line go?"

Two minutes later.

Roger looked at the Gray Dwarf Chieftain's riddled corpse and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

He took off the slightly glowing hat and appraised it.

White Raven's Crown/Curiosity/???

There are quite a lot of fancy things on the starting point now. I just saw an investment that said the earlier you invest, the higher the return.

I've given you the wealth code, don't forget to click on the investment, it's a sure thing.
