Chapter 80: Press On!

“Alright.” Listening to the loud discussion by his clansmen, Cartier finally made up his mind, “We can only enter the Magic Seal Door now. As for whether there will be elves in the future or whether we have to remain as gnomes forever, these are no longer important.

“After all, we have no other choice.”

After saying this, Cartier was like a deflated balloon.

Hearing this, the other gnomes felt as if their hearts were filled with lead.

In their eyes, today marked the burial place of their elven race.

After all, the situation had already reached a desperate level.

Even if these gnomes were given wings, they could not solve the crisis in front of them.

Instead of waiting here to be slaughtered by the mercenary group behind them, it would be better to hide behind the Magic Seal Door and fight for a chance of survival.

However, there was still a group of gnomes who were extremely dissatisfied and uncomfortable.

“Village Chief, I think that if we just hand over that imposter, Lord Edil will forgive us.”

“Yeah, as long as we kneel down to him and beg him to forgive us, Lord Edil will definitely let us go.”

Hearing the words of these few gnomes, most of the other gnomes seemed to be influenced by them. They all subconsciously turned their gazes to Mike beside them.

“Enough!” Cartier said in a deep voice.

“After so many years, I see that all of you are becoming more and more like gnomes. You don’t look like elves at all.”

“Not only did you violate the thousand-year agreement to live in harmony with humans, you even turned a blind eye to your savior. If not for the heroic actions of the youth, us gnomes would have all been killed long ago!”

“Since we have long forgotten the mission of the elves, this time, let me end the elf race!”

Village Chief Cartier’s voice grew louder and louder. Hearing his voice, more and more of the gnomes’ expressions were full of grief and indignation.

Their village chief wasn’t wrong. Although they had hoped that someone would be able to lift their curse in the future, they had unknowingly done things that became more and more like gnomes and not elves.

The mission and nature of elves had long been forgotten.

Soon, the group of gnomes followed the main group and walked towards the mountain gate that was not far away.

After everyone arrived at the mountain gate, Cartier took out a small knife and cut open his finger, dripping his blood on the stone wall of the seal.

This was the seal that sealed the elf bloodline. Only by giving up the elf blood in his body could he open the Defensive Magic Circle and obtain the protection of the Defensive Magic Circle.

After Cartier dripped the last of his elven blood on the seal.

Immediately, the blue sealing magic formation that was faintly discernible shook violently. Following that, a shocking sound was emitted from the mountain wall.

Crack Crack Crack!

Not long after, a circular path slowly opened up in this sealed area.

“Hurry up and enter!” After coming into contact with the seal, Cartier’s face became older and older. At the same time, after coming into contact with the sealed door, Cartier looked at the humans and werewolves that were rushing over and shouted in a somewhat anxious tone.

Immediately, all the gnomes, Mike, and Lilian were brought into the Magic Seal Door.

This was a place that all the gnomes did not dare to enter, but right now, this had become the only way to protect them.

As they were about to hide in this ancient Magic Seal Door, the humans, wolves, and Wild Wolf Mercenaries behind them also continuously rushed over.

As they rushed over, Cartier silently chanted an incantation. Soon, an emerald-green protective barrier appeared at the entrance of the cave, protecting them well.

“B*stards! I didn’t think that they would actually hide in this cave.”

“It should be said that the cave also proves that these detestable gnomes really do know about the existence of magic!”

“Yes, that is a Magic Seal Door. This also means that they know about the existence of magic. If they can ask about magic, the boss’s black magic will definitely be mastered!”

The Wild Wolf Mercenaries began to discuss among themselves. A voice asked, “Leader, what should we do now?”

“What should we do? Naturally, we will attack!” Edil said loudly.

With a wave of his hand, the two werewolves beside him suddenly attacked the Magic Defensive Magic Circle.

Bang, Bang, Bang!

Knock, Knock!

Boom, Boom, Boom!

The ten werewolves swung their claws and opened their fangs at the Magic Seal Door in a flurry of attacks.

However, all the attacks on the defensive shield only produced a loud sound.

The sound was loud, but the shield did not show any signs of distortion or cracking.

After countless attacks, everyone finally gave up trying.

However, although they gave up on attacking, the Wild Wolf Mercenaries did not give up on chasing after the gnomes and Mike. In their eyes, Mike and the others were just like fish in a barrel.

“Set up camp. This cave doesn’t have the food and water that they need. At most, they will only be able to last in there for three days. After three days, they can either come out obediently or starve to death in there.”

After Edil finished speaking, everyone at the scene began to work in an orderly manner.

On the other side.

After Mike followed Cartier and the other goblins into the Magic Seal Door, Mike was surprised to find that there was a flat stone ground inside. It was very spacious and was hundreds of meters long.

In addition, the gnomes’ bodies were small anyway. Even if there were twenty times more gnomes, the place would still not be too crowded.

Moreover, there were two stone flights of stairs on both sides of this space. This meant that the interior space was divided into two parts, and it seemed to be divided into two levels.

In front of it, there was a long corridor that was fifty-five meters long. At the end of the corridor, there was a standard Magic Seal Formation, but it was more eye-catching and more mysterious than the Magic Seal Formation outside.

At the end of the corridor, the clamor from the Wild Wolf Mercenaries could be heard from time to time.

“Come out quickly!”

“Damn it, all you know is just to hide inside there?”

“Without food, let’s see what you do in the future!”

…

The clamor of the Wild Wolf Mercenaries could be heard coming from the outside from time to time. Under their intermittent voices, the gnomes present could not help but feel a pain in their hearts.

Although they had all reached a safe place, the clamor outside became the shadow of death in the hearts of everyone present.

When they realized that there was a lack of food and water here, it made all the gnomes present even more desperate.

There was simply no way to solve this matter!

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely depressing and it did not feel right.

Cartier opened his mouth and said, “Sigh, at least we can preserve our lives here. Let’s discuss the other matters later.”

When the other gnomes heard the village chief’s gloomy tone, they could not help but feel a little uncomfortable. Every gnome looked a little down.

At that moment, Mike walked forward and said, “Village Chief, I want to ask you something.”

Currently, although Mike’s face was pale, it was not without color.

Earlier, his injured arm had been treated by Phyllis with magic herbs and magic.

Even if it was a simple treatment, Phyllis’s face had started to look more and more like that of a gnome.

Mike understood that this was the price that Phyllis had to pay for treating him. When he thought of this, his eyes could not help but be filled with guilt towards Phyllis.

Hearing Mike’s question, not only was Cartier’s interest piqued, but so too were the other gnomes.

Everyone wanted to know what the human youth in front of them was going to say.

“Benefactor, please speak. You saved my granddaughter, and you also saved our most talented girl. You are the benefactor of my gnomes, oh no, of the elf race. I will definitely tell you everything about your problem,” Cartier said gratefully.

After hearing this, Mike had a good impression of these pitiful gnomes.

At the same time.., he also asked the question in his heart, “Village Chief, I know that you were all elves with the most talent in magic, but this talent is left in the bloodline. I really can’t understand why your strength couldn’t chase away those mercenaries who didn’t have magical abilities? Could it be that all of this is related to the curse?”
