Oulus Vain tightened his cloak, looking at the kobold in front of him with some disgust.

In Aulus's eyes, these creatures were nothing short of a crude collection.

He was about 1.4 meters tall, ugly, with wrinkled skin, and his most distinctive feature was his large, red nose that looked like a tumor.

They possess a sense of smell several times stronger than humans, but their nature is inherently cruel and timid. As omnivorous creatures, they are currently gathered around a campfire.

A large iron pot, stolen from some unfortunate caravan, sat on the fire.

The liquid inside the pot was boiling violently, the broth was a murky yellowish-green color, and a layer of greasy foam floated on the surface, making a soft "plop" sound when it burst.

Several kobolds grinned, their mouths full of yellow teeth, and shouted as they threw in all sorts of ingredients they had collected, including moldy fungus, monster flesh and blood, and multi-legged insects dug out from the ground!

Even though he was used to being surrounded by corpses, Aurus still felt nauseous when he saw this scene and almost vomited!

Aurus turned his head away and muttered under his breath, "What a disgusting bunch!"

As a member of the Bone Whisperers, Aurus has reached the threshold of becoming a saint.

But before that, he needs to complete some rituals, such as...

Offer up to two hundred fresh meat sacrifices and turn them into skeleton servants to be used at will!

But compared to orderly towns, the Silent Forest here is undoubtedly more suited to this kind of slaughter!

Therefore, he took the initiative to find the leader of these kobolds. After promising to help him destroy the gnomes, they formed an alliance and launched an attack on the gnome tribe together!

The perfect plan ultimately failed because the quality of the partner was overestimated!

Kobold!

These cowardly, stupid, and undisciplined crawlers!

Just as the Death Knights tore through the gnome defenses and created an excellent opportunity, the gnomes scattered in a panic simply because a dozen or so of their own kind had died in the front line. The favorable situation collapsed in an instant.

The number of corpses harvested was very small, and fewer than twenty skeletons were transformed from them.

At this moment, Aurus's gloomy gaze refocused on the kobold.

However, it's not a big problem...

These bastards were on his sacrifice list from the very beginning. Once he wiped out that dwarf tribe, his number of skeleton servants would exceed one hundred.

When that time comes, and with the kobolds lax in their defenses, he will not hesitate to let his skeleton servants' blades pierce through the bodies of these scum!

"Boom!"

Just as Oulus was further refining his plan, a sudden explosion came from the front of the camp!

He instinctively looked up, his pupils instantly contracting as a small mushroom cloud floated before his eyes, and a scorching wave of heat swept across the entire camp in an instant!

What truly pained him was that the skeleton servants he had painstakingly transformed were torn to shreds like straw and scattered everywhere!

The kobolds jumped up in a panic, and in the ensuing shoving, a large bowl of food spilled onto the ground.

Aurus murmured in disbelief, "This is impossible!"

He had clearly set up a hidden "necromantic detection array" around the camp. Any object with life or magical fluctuations would trigger an alarm if it approached!

But now, the magic array seems to have failed, completely losing its function!

At the same time, a rustling sound reached his keen ears.

That sound... sounded like some kind of metallic segmented limb rapidly striking the ground!

Aurus suddenly turned around and fixed his gaze on a bush at the edge of the camp.

The next second, a bizarrely shaped "spider" crawled out at an astonishing speed!

It is made entirely of some kind of steel, with flexible joints, and eight compound eyes that flash red light.

Secret couples are not uncommon!

Strangely, it emitted absolutely no magical energy, as if...

A lump of iron that can move on its own!

Oulus instinctively cast a detection spell.

However, the feedback was completely blank!

Not only were there no magical markings, but there wasn't even a soul connection!

Driven by an instinctive wariness of the unknown, Aurus immediately felt a chill!

The spider was incredibly fast, and it pounced on the camp at that moment!

Aurus forced himself to calm down. With a wave of his staff, the ground suddenly parted, and a dark giant hand instantly grabbed the steel spider in its palm!

Then, a colossal humanoid creature clad in enchanted heavy armor emerged from the soil!

This is Aurus's trump card!

Originally a knight loyal to the Church, he was captured by Aulus and, through a blasphemous ritual, his holy light was drained and infused with vengeful spirits, transforming him into a death knight.

A pair of blood-red eyes now filled the hollow hole.

Seeing his strongest guards make their move, Aulus's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

However, he hadn't fully exhaled yet...

"Bang!"

The spider held in the Death Knight's hand suddenly exploded. The immense force of the blast instantly tore apart the Death Knight's thick arm, and not only that…

The chest, located within the enchanted armor, was also directly damaged by such a high-level explosion; almost half of the body was blown away. The originally intensely red eyes were now much dimmer, clearly...

It has suffered some kind of severe blow!

"Sasha..."

"Sasha..."

"Sasha..."

The familiar voice rang out again, but this time, it wasn't one, but three identical martyr mechanical bodies that appeared before Oulus.

Immediately afterwards, they charged headlong into the kobold camp with a clear objective!

Oulus was shocked and quickly chanted a spell, and a bone shield made of several layers of bones condensed in front of him!

Almost the instant the bone shield took shape...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three consecutive, rapid explosions rang out in the center of the kobold camp!

The kobold, already terrified, didn't even know what was happening. Limbs and splattered blood filled the air before falling down with a crackling sound!

The bone shield in front of Aurus blocked the explosion, but the aftershocks at the core still caused a burning pain on his skin!

He's injured!

His cloak was torn, and his face was noticeably darker than before, and the attacks from the hostile forces had not ended.

Suddenly, more than ten dwarfs wearing strange breastplates came into his view. These dwarfs were holding something in their hands, and with a pulling motion, they all threw the things out!

Meanwhile, a familiar figure appeared on the outskirts of the camp, carrying a dark, cylindrical object, amidst the dwarfs!

"Bang!"

As the other side activated the device, a jet of flame shot towards the camp!

Aurus was somewhat incredulous.

He had met the other person!

The leader of those green-skinned dwarves had one of his arms severed by his own death knight, but now, his two arms were no longer made of flesh and blood, but had been replaced by two strangely shaped arms that gleamed with metallic luster!

Based on his strength, Aurus felt a chill. He tried to cast Bone Shield again, but because it was not an instant spell, he wasted some time.

The final feeling...

All that remained was endless burning pain from the flames!

……

At the top of the sand table, Gu Cheng looked at everything before him with immense satisfaction.

The battle ended much faster than he had imagined!

All the fear stemmed from insufficient firepower, so Gu Cheng gave Grom the order to give it his all!

Once the hidden dangers are eliminated, Gu Cheng can help the dwarfs acquire more weapons in a short period of time!

Meanwhile, the native inhabitants of this other world experienced for the first time what the art of explosion truly meant!
