Don't call me evil god

An intriguing smile appeared on Peter's face.

"Why do you ask?"

The dwarf clerk no longer had the arrogance he had before.

Let’s explain subconsciously first:

"Because... uh..."

As soon as he started, he hesitated again.

He was debating whether to tell "outsiders" what had happened.

When Pett saw this, he turned around and planned to leave without saying a word.

Now it is the other party who wants something from him.

He is the one who takes the initiative.

The clerk immediately became anxious.

"Wait! Wait!"

"I said, I can tell you why."

"Some time ago...well, well, it should be more than a few years ago!"

Seeing Pet's dissatisfied expression, the clerk quickly changed his words and gave a clear message instead of being vague.

"No dwarves from the Freeman family know exactly when. Anyway, the first time someone discovered the anomaly was three years ago."

"Cousin Broon is getting letters regularly."

Although this dwarf is just a clerk on duty in the store, he is also a guy with the dwarf surname "Freeman" who is qualified to enter the second floor of the stone castle!

Members of the same family, or even different dwarf families, are all related to each other.

This is a huge group that is closely linked by blood ties and divine blessings, and is extremely clumsy.

He is always called "Cousin Bronn".

"The letters sent to Stone Castle were neither signed nor addressed, and were sent by the goblin anonymous airmail service."

"Since that time, Bron, who had made great achievements in forging skills and had great potential, seemed to have gradually lost interest in forging."

"He began to leave the Stone Castle from time to time and go deep into the Spirit Wing Wetlands."

"No one knows why he went to Lingyi Wetland, and no one has read those letters."

"The first batch of letters were destroyed by Blum in advance, and the anonymous letters he received later were burned directly after he read them himself."

"I'm not hiding it. I really don't know. I swear by Gunnir's forging hammer!"

"If you ask anyone in the Freeman family, the answer you will get is similar to mine. By the time we find out something is wrong, it is already too late!"

Pet looked at the other person's blushing face and swore, and nodded slightly:

"You go on."

Making an oath to the god you believe in may not be effective even if it does not go through a formal ceremony.

But in most cases, this is a very serious decision.

The dwarf clerk breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"In short, Cousin Bron goes to Lingyi Wetland more and more frequently."

"In the beginning, he only left every few months."

"Later it became once a month, and later, I would go once every half a month."

"During that period half a year ago, we felt that Bron's mental state was not right!"

"He put all his energy into going deep into the Lingyi Wetland and refused to let anyone go with him!"

"Occasionally, I only return to Stone Castle briefly to replenish supplies, and... to receive new anonymous letters!"

"At that time, we could only squat in the goblin post office on the fifth floor of the stone castle until Bronn appeared briefly."

The dwarf clerk's description of the changes in Bron Freeman over the past few years did arouse Pate's interest.

"You haven't tried to stop him? Or ask him to find out what's going on?" The clerk hesitated for a moment, and finally confessed honestly:

"We tried."

"Put him under house arrest in the area belonging to the Freeman family on the second floor, take turns communicating with him, and even arrange for people to be on duty to monitor him day and night."

"But these methods are useless!"

"You may not believe it when I say this, but... I can guarantee it's true!"

"Even if someone is watching Cousin Bron from morning to night, he will still suddenly disappear from home one day!"

"The next time I saw him, he had already returned from the Lingwing Wetland covered in dust, followed the big elevator outside Edson's Wall to the fifth floor of the Stone Castle, and then received a new anonymous letter at the post office."

"The family has asked the dwarf responsible for pulling the big lift."

"They also said that when Bronn's cousin disappeared out of thin air, they only saw Bronn riding a big lift when he returned."

"But when he disappeared, he definitely did not leave the stone castle through the big elevator!"

Peter heard Gale hiss next to him.

Disappear into thin air.

This sounds a bit pervasive.

Although dwarves don't use magic, they can recognize the effects of magic.

So there is definitely no way to use teleportation magic to achieve the effect of "disappearing into thin air".

Legendary magic is to open the astral channel, and that thing can be directly seen by the naked eye.

There is an air of eeriness in the stories told by the dwarves of the Freeman family.

"The worst thing is..."

Having said this, the dwarf clerk sounded quite anxious:

"It has been more than three months since cousin Bronn last left Stone Castle. He has disappeared!"

"This is taking too long!"

"Under normal circumstances, although he will frequently go to Lingyi Wetland, the time he spends each time will not be too long, ranging from a few days to half a month."

"Now Bron Freeman has completely lost contact in the family!"

"We don't know where he went, what happened to him, or even whether he is still alive."

"So - the letter you mentioned, the old friend who wrote to Bron, does it have any other information to tell us?"

Pet spread his hands thoughtfully.

"Sorry, you should be disappointed."

"I think you should know the person who wrote this letter to Bron Freeman - Countess Frigga Ceylon of Ceylon in the Kingdom of Reyak."

"When she was young, she and the other party were close adventure companions."

"In fact, the Countess prepared a letter of introduction. She planned to introduce us to Bron Freeman."

"In other words, I think Countess Ceylon didn't know what Bron Freeman had encountered in the past few years. Otherwise, she wouldn't have tried to recommend us to Bron Freeman in this way. It would most likely be a waste of effort."

The dwarf clerk of the Freeman family looked visibly disappointed.

Don't look at the dwarves as stubborn and xenophobic, but this stubbornness also makes them attach great importance to their companions, friends and relatives.

When a family member gets into trouble or is bullied, everyone else will think of ways to help him as much as they can.

"But..."

Pete changed the subject.

Hope immediately appeared on the dwarf's face.

"According to what you said, I do have a guess!"
