Gulp.
Hilde's silvery-white pupils widened slightly. Looking at the food and the barrels of alcohol emitting a strong scent in the Gray Dwarf treasury, she couldn't help but swallow.
These supplies, which were completely worthless in Lyle's eyes, were true treasures to humans living in the food-scarce Valley of Despair.
On the contrary, things like gold, silver, and gemstones were no different from common stones in this desert; perhaps, they were just a bit better looking.
Lyle noticed Hilde's dazed expression and realized this.
"Hilde, the underground caverns here have become unstable. Arrange for people to remove these supplies as soon as possible."
Lyle continued to remind her in a steady tone: "There are also a large number of Gray Dwarf corpses that need to be dealt with; otherwise, these corpses are very likely to contaminate the underground water source."
Hilde came back to her senses, a nervous expression immediately appearing on her face. She raised her arm to wipe the sweat from her forehead and nodded forcefully.
"I will go arrange it right away, Hero."
Hilde couldn't even spare a moment to catch her breath; she moved her firm legs and turned to leave with long strides.
Seeing Hilde's hurried personality, Lyle shook his head slightly. Compared to Leinas and Imina, Hilde's personality was clearly not steady enough.
However!
This also had to do with the environment Hilde lived in. After all, there were only so many humans in the entire Valley of Despair, and everyone supported and helped each other, unlike the schemes and calculations found among humans in the Northwest Continent.
"I wonder how things are going on Leinas' and Imina's sides?" Lyle muttered to himself softly.
There was no need to be too worried about Leinas' side, but Imina was different, especially since she was in the dangerous organization known as Eight Fingers.
If he, the Necromancer hiding behind Imina, never showed his face, Edström and "Space Slash" Peshilian might harbor some ulterior motives.
However!
He had specifically left behind the Phantom Demon Succulent, which was a disguised way of giving Imina the power to contend with the other two members of the Six Arms.
"Given Imina's personality, if she truly realizes the danger, she will definitely ask Leinas for help. If it becomes even more dangerous, she will likely just run away."
Thinking of this, Lyle smiled slightly and walked into the treasury, heading toward the pile of broken weapons, armor, and various Ore.
The Minister of Forging, under the effect of All-Race Charm, followed by Lyle's side, occasionally speaking to introduce these Ore.
Lyle had originally thought there would be some relatively precious Ore Materials, as it was, after all, the treasury of the Gray Dwarf clan.
It turned out they were all just a pile of ordinary raw Ore.
According to the Minister of Forging, these Ore Materials were collected with great difficulty from the underground veins in this desert.
Lyle scanned these Ore with lack of interest, then turned his gaze to the armor and weapons. After a serious scan, there was indeed not a single complete one.
"Is this all there is in your Gray Dwarf clan's treasury?" Lyle asked the Minister of Forging.
"Yes."
The Minister of Forging nodded with a dull gaze. "The most precious were the three Gargoyles with powerful strength, but they have already been destroyed by you, My Lord."
Gargoyles?
Lyle's eyes showed even greater disappointment.
Gargoyles were indeed a decent tool, with an average attack strength of over Rank 20. Coupled with their special body structure, they could be immune to most negative effects and also had a certain resistance to physical attacks.
To the Gray Dwarves, they could indeed be called strong.
"What's the deal with this magic weapon, and why can it still be used?" Lyle flipped his palm and took out the Magic Gun.
He had just checked the attributes of this Magic Gun, and even Lyle couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Unfortunately, the weapons in front of him were all in a damaged state.
