Chapter 486: Trouble occurs wherever you go

"How abnormal is that?"

The young dwarf recalled for a moment, with a look of fear on his face:

"When other members of the family communicated with him, cousin Bronn... his mood was particularly calm, so calm that he didn't even look like a dwarf."

"We usually, well, we also know that we have hot tempers, but there is nothing wrong with that. We all have rough lines. If we don't agree, we will get into a fight. After the fight, the relationship will not become worse."

"Bron is different."

"No matter how much people try to talk to him, get him to drink, or even punch him twice, his mood will not change much, he will not be happy or angry."

"If you ask him, what is the purpose of going to Lingyi Wetland?"

"He will tell us very seriously...he has received guidance from the ancestors, and this is his mission!"

"Ask him what's in the letter."

"But he didn't say anything even to the death. He just emphasized over and over again that this matter was very important. He couldn't give up or stop. He had to do it."

Peter's heart moved.

Changes in mental status and abnormal behavior patterns.

These strange phenomena sound a bit like the negative effects caused by being infused with the power of the evil god!

However, Bron Freeman's abnormality is not like that of the Bloodfang Gang in Greenport.

The gangsters of the Blood Fang Gang are degenerating all the way to a crazy ending. The more power from the evil god is poured into them, the more they become ambitious, irritable, difficult to think, and their bodies become deformed.

Bron Freeman doesn't sound that "dangerous" on the surface.

But according to this description, he seems to be becoming more and more paranoid.

Dwarves are inherently stubborn, and Bron Freeman shows this trait to the extreme.

At best, this is called having a clear goal, being unswerving, and not being affected by external objects and other people's opinions.

At worst, it's called going your own way.

Pate asked: "Is Bron Freeman the only one in the Freeman family who is in this situation?"

"Has anyone else behaved similarly?"

"Where are the other dwarf clans, or the dwarves on the upper floors of the stone castle?"

The young dwarf shook his head blankly: "I don't know, there shouldn't be one, right?"

Miranda interjected: "Then let's ask another question."

"Are there any other dwarves who claim that they have been guided by their ancestors and want to run to the Spirit Wing Wetland?"

She was also sensitively aware that something was indeed wrong with this phenomenon.

This time the other party gave an affirmative answer: "Yes! There will be guys like this every once in a while, um... but they are not members of the glorious nine dwarf families."

"These people are shouting about ancestral guidance and missions, basically to attract attention, trying to use this method to return themselves to the family inherited from their ancestors."

"In fact, they were not guided at all."

"The blood power of our dwarves will not lie. If he can really get the protection of his ancestors, then he will definitely be able to stimulate the power in his blood and get the corresponding blessings and magic."

"Those guys, no matter whether they come back after running to the Lingyi Wetland or not, their bloodline has not changed anyway, they have not inspired the power of their ancestors at all, and they will not run to the Lingyi Wetland again and again like crazy! "

"This is completely different from Bronn's behavior!"

…

Peter could not interfere in the Freeman family's family affairs. With the arrogance and stubbornness of these dwarves, expecting them to ask outsiders for help to solve their problems would be even more uncomfortable than killing them.

Somehow.

Pat always felt that Bron Freeman's abnormal behavior was probably related to those mysterious men in black robes from Stone Castle.

Although it seems that there is no connection between the two.

But Pate always felt that beneath the carnival surface of the Wine Festival, there was an undercurrent surging deep in the stone castle.

It was like an invisible hand was patiently burying chess pieces one after another in the stone castle.

Before the final layout is completed, it is almost impossible to know the whole leopard at a glance. Pet had a premonition.

As they pursue clues related to the man in black, sooner or later they will be connected to the disappearance of Bron Freeman.

Before leaving the Freeman family's equipment store, Pett recounted the contents of the incomplete clan card:

"May the ancestors bless the eternal iron-blooded warriors and the glorious family of diggers——"

"Which family issued the clan card at what time does this description correspond to?"

The dwarf clerk immediately frowned upon hearing this and looked at Peter warily:

"What are you going to do about the Clan Card?"

"For the sake of... your analysis, I can tell you that among the nine major families, only the three families with the surnames Manhao, Tieger and Lang can use the name 'Excavator'."

"In addition to forging, they are also good at digging into mountain walls, looking for mineral veins deep underground, and digging and identifying ores."

"More than 90% of Stone Castle's mineral needs are supplied by these three great clans."

"But when it will be distributed, this is a secret belonging to the dwarves!"

Peter clicked his tongue.

He knew it wouldn't be that easy.

At least there is some progress on the clues.

The range of black-robed dwarves with clan cards has been narrowed from nine clans to three.

"How about a fair deal?" Gale next to him suddenly suggested.

"You are now very anxious to find Bron Freeman and want to know what happened to him, right?"

"We want to know something about the Manhao, Tiegel, and Rum families."

"If we can help you find Bronn, and even find out what happened."

"In return, tell us what we want to know."

"What I can tell you as a bargaining chip is that we have a lot of people, and we are very good at finding people!"

The young dwarf frowned, the expression on his face clearly wavering in hesitation.

"Go back and discuss it with your family members."

Dwarves don't like asking outsiders for help.

But that doesn't mean they reject any deal.

On the contrary, if it is a fair deal, they have no reason to reject it.

After all, dwarves are stubborn but not stupid.

…

On the way to meet up with Lena, Brandon, who had barely said a word in the store before, suddenly complained with a hint of emotion.

"What a hell."

"Although I have always thought that I will definitely become a powerful legendary adventurer in the future, experience various epic adventures, and have countless experiences that can be sung by bards."

"But I didn't expect that this life could be so exciting, and something would happen wherever I go!"

"As long as those men in black robes are around, there seems to be no peace!"

"My instinct is telling me that there may be a big problem in the stone castle!"

"Now is probably the last calm before the outbreak!"

Peter and others nodded in sympathy.

…

There will be 3 more updates later, on the way
