Chapter 267: Bribery Failed, Commence the Plan to Kill the Giant Gopher!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The elderly gnome dwarf wanted to create a device that would make the giant gopher fall into a deep sleep.

This would take a certain amount of time, about a day to complete the task given to him by the leader.

As for the gnome dwarf leader, he tried to distract the giant gopher. On one hand, it was to prevent the giant gopher from escaping, and on the other hand, it was to keep an eye on the giant gopher so as not to damage the mechanical heart.

At this moment, the giant gopher was sitting next to the gnome leader. It was thinking about how to escape after a day’s time.

When they were in the Dragon Castle, Mike had told the giant gopher that once their plan succeeded, the giant gopher had to think of a way to escape before the gnome leader found out.

However, it was up to the giant gopher to think of a specific way. Mike, who was far away in the Dragon Castle, had no idea what would happen to the giant gopher after encountering the gnomes.

Therefore, the giant gopher had to rely on the situation at the time and find a way to escape.

The giant gopher was thinking about it now. It would only take a few hours from where the gnomes were to enter the Misty Forest.

This was because the mechanical device controlled by the gnome dwarves did not travel very fast.

Adding onto the several hours of time that the giant gopher had bought, the giant gopher guessed that it would only need to delay a little more to complete Mike’s task.

As long as it completed this task and returned to the Dragon Castle, it would receive a very generous reward.

Mike might even use the high-level bloodline of the dragons for the giant gopher. One had to know that in the entire Otherworld continent, there were very few high-level creatures that had the ability to change the value of low-level creatures. Of course, the dragon race was one of them.

This gift was very attractive to the giant gopher.

Just as the giant gopher was thinking about its beautiful future, the gnome leader sitting beside him suddenly turned around and grabbed the giant gopher’s fur with his short arms.

“I know you’re the messenger of the Dragon Castle. Why don’t you give me the mechanical heart, and I’ll give you a huge treasure that’s enough for you to build a powerful army in the Misty Forest!”

The giant gopher did not expect that the gnome leader would actually try to bribe it. He really wanted the mechanical heart.

The reason was very simple. If the gnome dwarves could not keep their promise in the end, or if the giant gopher did not want to hand over the mechanical heart in the end, the consequences would be unthinkable. The gnome leader would not only lose the mechanical heart, the original plan to attack the Dragon Castle would also be disrupted.

Although the mechanical heart was very delicate, it was also very easy to be destroyed unless the mechanical heart was activated.

Only when the hidden abilities of the mechanical heart were fully activated could the fate of being destroyed be avoided.

The gnome leader thought that the only way was to convince the giant gopher to betray the Dragon Castle.

At this moment, after the gnome leader finished speaking, he stared at the giant gopher with his pair of small eyes.

Of course, he hoped that the giant gopher would agree to his request. If that was the case, after the giant gopher handed over the mechanical heart, he would think of a way to kill this annoying fellow in front of him.

The nature of the gnome dwarves was completely exposed. This was also recognized by the entire Otherworld. Although the reputation of the gnome dwarves was not as bad as the magi, they were also a kind of creature that was sinister and cunning.

The giant gopher was staring at the gnome leader. It shook its huge head. It was not a fool. After thinking for a moment, it immediately saw through the hidden conspiracy of the gnome leader.

If the giant gopher really handed over the mechanical heart, it would get treasures in return. However, one had to know that the danger in the Misty Forest was not something that could be avoided just by having some treasure. On the contrary, it would attract even more danger because of carrying a large amount of treasure.

This was almost no different from throwing away one’s life.

The giant gopher turned its large head and stared at the face of the gnome leader beside it as if it was looking at a fool.

The meaning was very obvious. You had better hurry up and fulfill your previous promise.

In order to urge the gnome leader, the giant gopher took out the mechanical heart from the package and shook it in front of the gnome leader’s eyes.

This action of the giant gopher undoubtedly angered the gnome leader even more.

However, the gnome leader could not flare up because of the current situation. He could only suppress his anger and leave the giant gopher.

He turned around and jumped into the mechanical fortress. The mechanical fort was huge, and this was the gnome Leader’s command room.

Soon, the gnome leader found the elderly gnome in a room.

“Elder! How long will it take to make a machine that can put the gopher to sleep?”

The gnome leader had had enough of that giant gopher and could not wait to kill it right now.

However, as the leader of the gnome dwarves, he was still very smart and knew the importance of this.

The damned giant gopher had the mechanical heart in its hands. That device alone would drive the entire gnome dwarf race crazy.

The gnomes were all very nimble creatures. They had thin and small fingers, and they could use all kinds of tools very nimbly. Then, they could create whatever they wanted.

This kind of racial talent gave the gnome race the secret to eternal prosperity.

The gnome elder immediately stood up from his chair when he saw the leader enter. He was holding a small mechanical device in his hand.

Although it was a little rough on the outside, if one observed carefully, the gears inside the machine were running exquisitely.

“Leader, the general structure has been completed. The only thing missing now is the internal drive device. This will take about half a day to complete.”

The mechanical device mentioned by the elder was not a divine device like the mechanical heart, but a drive device invented by the gnome dwarves themselves.

Of course, this mechanical device was far less exquisite and powerful than the mechanical heart.

The most powerful part of the mechanical heart was its ability to automatically repair itself. As long as the mechanical heart was placed in the core area of the machine, with the powerful ability of the mechanical heart, not only would it be able to unleash power far beyond that of an ordinary driving device, it would also be able to repair damaged parts automatically.

That was why the mechanical heart had become a divine artifact.

The gnome dwarf leader had an ugly expression on his face when he heard that it would take another half a day, but he also knew that there was no other way except to wait.
