Chapter 265: This Is the Leader of the Gnome Dwarves?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The giant gopher started to come out from the ground, its pointy head appearing on top of the ground.
In its line of sight, a giant creature appeared. It was a giant steel machine that was larger than any other mechanical device. It was like a steel fortress.
On top of the steel fortress, there were a few gnome dwarves that were short in stature. On the main seat, there was a gnome that looked very different. This gnome dwarf’s head was very huge, far larger than the other gnome dwarves.
Even his body was much taller than those gnome dwarves.
The giant gopher guessed that this must be the leader of the gnome dwarves.
Then, the giant gopher drilled its entire body out from under the ground.
At the same time, it exposed its position. The rumbling sounds of machinery suddenly began to weaken. The giant gopher knew the gnome dwarves had discovered his position.
As expected, the mechanical device stopped a few meters away from the giant gopher.
The steel-like sharp gears would crush the giant gopher into a pool of blood if they decided to move forward.
The giant gopher did not hesitate and immediately opened its mouth to shout.
Soon, two gnome dwarves jumped down from the mechanical fortress. They were holding a long metal tube in their hands.
The giant gopher did not know what it was, but he knew that if it made any sudden moves, the gnome dwarves would definitely attack it without hesitation.
As the gnome dwarves surrounded the giant gopher, the voice of the gnome sounded in its ears.
However, the giant gopher could not understand what it was saying. It could only use its innate ability, sensing, to try to communicate with the gnome leader sitting on the mechanical fortress.
The giant gopher was right. The gnome leader also had the sensing ability.
Just as the gnome dwarves were about to attack the giant gopher, a strange language came from the mechanical fortress.
The gnomes surrounding the giant gopher stopped their attacks and surrounded the giant gopher to prevent it from escaping.
The giant gopher raised its pointy head and its protruding eyes stared up high at the gnome leader.
It was still using its sensing ability to communicate with the gnome leader. It was fulfilling its mission, transmitting Mike’s message.
Mike wanted to convince the leader of the gnomes, and then get the gnomes to come up with a condition. The best outcome would be to change the gnomes’ target of attack. Mike wanted them to attack the Castle of Gods instead.
Of course, this requirement was a bit harsh, and Mike knew very well that this wish would be difficult to achieve.
After all, Mike did not know how the gnomes were thinking, so he could only communicate through the giant gopher.
Mike’s bottom line was to delay the mechanical device army for a day, so that he could ensure the birth of the new creature in the dragon nest.
He did not know if the gnome dwarves were willing to wait for one day. In order to achieve this delay, Mike used a trick.
Mike asked the giant gopher to tell the gnome leader that Mike was willing to give the gnome leader a large amount of treasure in exchange for the gnomes not attacking the Dragon Castle.
This was a very reasonable request in normal times. However, Mike knew very well that the mechanical army had traveled a long way to reach the edge of the Misty Forest. How could they give up just like that?
Therefore, before the giant gopher left the castle, Mike gave the giant gopher something special.
It was a shiny magical device.

It was found among the dead bodies of the Anti-dragon Alliance. It should be a personal item of a high-level Castle Lord of the Anti-dragon Alliance.
Mike studied it for a long time before he realized that it was actually a well-made driving device.
Therefore, he decided to take a gamble and had the giant gopher take it to the gnomes. When the giant gopher met the gnome leader, it would give the driving device to the leader as a greeting gift.
At this moment, the giant gopher took out the exquisite mechanical device from its bag.
The moment the mechanical device was exposed, it immediately attracted the attention of the gnomes.
The gnome warriors surrounding the giant gopher wanted to get close to the driving device.
However, they were stopped by the gnome leader on the mechanical fortress.
The giant gopher looked at the gnome leader’s eyes. He was looking at the driving device with a greedy look.
The giant gopher secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At least its life was saved now.
The gnome warriors surrounding it would not attack it for the time being.
Mike had made the right bet.
This kind of magical driving device had a fatal attraction to the gnome dwarves who liked to research machines.
The gnome leader, who was sitting on the mechanical fortress, actually jumped from the mechanical fortress to the ground. Then, its two small eyes stared greedily at the driving device in the giant gopher’s hand.
The gnome leader quickened its pace and walked towards the giant gopher.
“Is this the mechanical heart?”
The giant gopher could sense the consciousness of the gnome leader in front of it. It also looked curiously at the gadget in its hand that was constantly rotating.
Could it be that this was really the mechanical heart that the leader mentioned!
The giant hamster had a very high IQ, it usually stayed in the library when it was in the Dragon Castle and read many books.
One of the books that introduced the underground world had records about the mechanical heart.
There were many kinds of creatures in this world, but if one wanted to survive in the hot and dark underground world, one had to have a divine artifact.
That was the mechanical heart.
With the mechanical heart, one could create all kinds of sophisticated machines in the underground world that lacked light.
Compared to the precise structure of the mechanical heart, the mechanical device controlled by the gnomes in front of him was like the difference between heaven and earth.
It was obvious how huge the gap was.
After seeing the driving device, the gnomes’ eyes were be filled with greed.
The giant gopher grabbed the mechanical heart in his hand tightly and used its sensing ability to negotiate with the leader of the gnomes.
“This is the mechanical heart. If you want the mechanical heart in my hand, you have to agree to one of my demands. Otherwise, I will destroy this mechanical heart right now!”
“Don’t destroy it. What demands do you have? Say it!”
When the gnome dwarf leader heard that the giant gopher in front of him actually wanted to destroy the mechanical heart, an angry expression instantly appeared on his face.
The giant hamster already knew what it wanted to say.
“I represent the Castle Lord of the Dragon Castle, the great Lord, Mike. I am here to negotiate with you!”
