Chapter 44 Expert of Destruction

Since this was for the sake of clearing the dungeon Ye Ci wasn’t petty about it. She wasn’t holding any grudges about what had happened just now either.

She looked at Crimson Millions and thought for a moment before speaking. “Do you realize that the grass here is denser than other places in this dungeon?”

She had said this in hopes of Crimson Millions catching on because she couldn’t really tell him directly that there was an NPC hiding among the dense grass around the Northwest corner that must be found in order to clear the dungeon. If she had said that, she was pretty sure Crimson Millions would then be wondering howshe knew so much even though it was her first time entering the dungeon.

Crimson Millions only turned his head and checked out his surroundings after hearing Ye Ci’s words. The grass here was indeed a lot denser here compared to the areas they had went through and had already grown taller than a person in most of the places here. If something was hidden among this dense grass, one would definitely miss it if they didn’t search for it carefully.

“Everyone, search among the grass around the Automatons Formation and look for clues to clear the dungeon.” Crimson Millions was also an experienced leader. Ye Ci had only briefly pointed it out and he had already caught onto it so he immediately issued his order to the party members who were still taking a break together.

As expected of a well-trained party, everyone stood up and started to search towards the denser areas around the Automatons Formation. Ye Ci purposely didn’t go in the Northeast direction but she instead went in the opposite direction.

Since she was the one who suggested the problem, people would be suspicious if she was also the one who found the NPC.

Just as expected, a party member shouted towards Crimson Millions very soon. “Leader, there’s an NPC here!”

Crimson Millions ran towards that party member as soon as he heard him. Ye Ci didn’t follow him but instead walked to the front of Automaton Formation and sat down. The NPC would come here later anyway.

After talking to the NPC for what seemed like half a day, that little Gnome finally came towards Ye Ci while cursing.

“You damn big fellows. Can’t you see that I was trying to hide? I’m on a mission b that my boss gave to me, but it’sonly to watch these traitors but not defeat them.”

Ye Ci laughed. This Gnome NPC was still the same as ever. What could he possibly see crouching among such dense and tall grasses?

“I’m telling you all that I’m only helping you out this time because of the money. If you guys fail, don’t come looking for me. I have my own principle.” The little Gnome took out some tools from somewhere and then instructed the players to push out some cannon emplacements that looked no different than trash from the bushes.

As an old saying goes, “a little body often harbors a great soul”. Although the Gnomes were small in stature, they were the best experts in machineries and their race specialized in engineering and alchemy.

In just a short moment, the little Gnome had repaired all three cannon emplacements.

“Just these. These are all I’ll offer to help fix.” The little Gnome jumped down from the last cannon emplacement that he repaired and returned to his place of hiding.
