Chapter 78 The King Has Someone Else

After the qi is gone, things still have to be done. From the occurrence of rat groups, Major has already felt that it is getting more and more difficult and difficult. He must be more careful in the future, so good luck will not always be on his side.

So he walked slowly forward, not letting a room beside him whenever he was near the corridor, and he checked it carefully. He really asked him to find out a few skeleton warriors, skeleton mages and ghouls, but these monsters fell easily in front of the experienced Major and presented him with a few bone beads and blood beads.

However, Major discovered a strange room at the deepest part of a wide fork. The doors of the other rooms were almost open, but the door was closed tightly and locked from the inside.

Major twisted the door handle several times, but it couldn't be opened. It was definitely not because it was embroidered for a long time, because it could still rotate a little bit. On the other hand, the dwarf's underground palace was built very carefully, the ventilation and waterproofing system was very good, and all the iron guys were kept intact. The other door locks were not marked by rust.

This is a strange thing. Is there a zombie who likes to be alone?

If this is the case, you can talk to Major. Those who like to be alone will be interesting, whether they are zombies or people.

In fact, Major mainly thinks that there must be some rare treasures inside. The lock can be melted with absolute high temperature, but Major still keeps it. If there is a ghoul inside, it is really impossible to beat it without absolute high temperature.

So he turned around and found a pair of axes left by the skeleton warrior, and slashed the door in two seconds.

A small room was unexpectedly tidy and not like a place where zombies live, with all living facilities. A large bed, tables, chairs, and even two rows of bookshelves standing against the wall. The temperature in the room was also higher than outside.

It was strange! He sniffed around, without the corruption and decay of the undead creatures, but had a living person's body scent.

He had a conspiracy in his heart, looked around, walked straight to the edge of the bookshelf, and moved it away. A hole appeared in the wall behind the bookshelf, which was narrow and deep inside.

"Is anyone?" Major shouted into the cave.

After a while, a timid voice responded: "Who... is... you." It's dry and hard, just like a person who had just learned a little foreign language was forced to speak.

"Major George, commissioned by the Ironbeard Tribe, came to wipe out the undead creatures in the underground palace. Who are you?"

A furry guy crawled out from the depths of the cave, which scared Major. It was not until he came out of the cave that Major could tell from his figure that he was a dwarf. He had long hair and waist, his beard and his face were full of his face, leaving only two wild animals-like eyes.

"Who am I?" Maoren crawled into the room and kept muttering to himself. Suddenly, he saw the door split by Major, jumping up like a frightened rabbit. He turned around the room twice, quickly pushed the bookshelf over and blocked it at the door, leaning against the bookshelf, and making a gesture to Major to silence.

"It's safe outside. I've killed all those bones," said Major.

"Impossible, impossible. There are many, very many." The Mao man stammered, looking very nervous and scared.

Major walked up to him, leaning against the bookshelf. "That way they can't get in."

The Mao man nodded. "Yes, yes, you must be careful. Be careful to survive."

"Who are you?" Major asked.

"Who am I?" Maoren widened his eyes, as if he was recalling. After thinking for a while, he slapped his head, turned around and took out a book from the bookshelf, opened it and read it slowly.

Major saw the book cover with "Notes on the Daily Life of the Iron-bearded Dwarf King 965-990".

The Mao man turned to the last page, pointed to the last name and slowly recited: "Marx Will? Tiewhisper. Yes, this is my name."

Are you still a king? Major was shocked. Didn’t I say that the Ironbearded Dwarf has no king anymore? Fakaolan is just a chief.

He snatched the book and looked carefully. Sure enough, the black and white words on it said: Marx Will I, the 347th King, and there are a few lines of small words behind it: Elliot III's eldest son, who loves adventure, went to the Silver Tower in 985 to seek alliance, but he did not return.

Major also found a familiar name in the line above: Fakauran, Bronzebeard, Elliott III's youngest brother, Prime Minister Marxwell I.

The Maoren looked at the book and seemed to recall some things, looking thoughtful.

"Since you are the king, why don't you escape? Also, why does it say it's not coming back?"

"Escape? I... I locked it, dungeon." Maoren said and gestded. Major heard a rough answer. This guy seemed to be locked in the dungeon when the undead creatures invaded.

A dignified king would be locked up? Major pinched his chin and looked at the Mao man with his eyes squinted. No, King Marxwell I should have been asked to look at it.

Could it be that this is another story of a bloody palace power struggle? It is clearly back but it is written that it has not returned, and there must be hidden information. Who wrote this book?

Major turned to the title page and there was a line of small words in a corner: Demps? Written by Iron Beard. This was another big discovery. Demps was not only a healer, but also a historian. This book is exquisitely bound, and it is definitely not affordable to Demps. No matter where it is, it must have been written by the imperial historian of the court.

Thinking of this, he went to check the book near the bookshelves. Since he was a court writer, he would definitely not write only one book.

Sure enough, right next to this book, there is another book with similar fonts: "The Words and Deeds of the Prime Minister of Bronzebearded Dwarf in 965-990"

The author is Demps Major. He took it out and read it carefully. This book is all about Fakaolan's words and deeds. The previous ones are boring, nothing more than how to deal with government affairs. Judging from the content, Fakaolan has great power, and is in charge of both internal affairs, diplomacy and military affairs. Moreover, this guy is still very competent, everything is well organized and there are many highlights.

Just on the next few pages, Fakaolan began to have some strange language and actions.

"On July 7, 989, the Prime Minister complained about sleep uneasy. 'There was a voice calling me.' he said."

"On July 13, 989, the Prime Minister ordered everyone to dig to the southwest. There was a barren land without mine veins."

"On July 19, 989, all other activities were stopped, and everyone's job was to dig in an unknown direction. Where will the Prime Minister take us?"

"On July 27, 989, we dug a tomb. The Prime Minister is still anxious."

"On July 28, 989, undead creatures appeared in the tomb, and our soldiers could deal with it. The Prime Minister said that countless rare treasures were buried in the tomb."

"On July 29, 989, there were more and more undead creatures, and our soldiers began to be unable to resist. It was still time to block the passage, but the Prime Minister didn't seem to be worried."

"July 30, 989. Oh my God, we dug a road to death."

"August 1, 989. Everything is over."

The handwriting on the last line was very sloppy, obviously I was writing it in a hurry. But for some reason, Demps did not bring the book out.

Fakaolan personally led his tribe to the road of extermination. But why did he do this? It was unreasonable. Major was puzzled. Judging from the previous records, Fakaolan was a good prime minister. Even if he fought for power with Marx and Will, he would not be able to do this. Everyone died, so what power could he have?
