Her voice did not have the power to inspire people, but when the gray dwarves in the castle heard it, their blood boiled.
They worked even harder!
At this moment.
A large group of black shadows appeared outside the castle.
Caroline shrunk her neck, a little afraid.
The underground world was actually more dangerous and crueler than the surface world.
This was because it was filled with all kinds of dark and evil creatures.
Two days ago, she even saw a large number of undead marching in the distance and finally disappearing into the darkness.
In addition.
The subterranean world also had the notorious human-faced spider, dark elf, cyclops, and so on.
These dark races were not only cruel and bloodthirsty, but also powerful.
If they targeted her castle…
The weak gray dwarves would not be able to resist them at all.
Fortunately, those dark shadows were not enemies.
“Uncle Xavier!”
The little loli saw the leading dark shadow clearly and immediately ran down the castle in joy.
The one walking towards her was a gray dwarf who looked like a middle-aged man. He was only about 1.34 meters tall, but his body was strong and his steps were steady.
He carried a huge iron greatsword on his back.
Every step he took seemed to shake the earth.
Behind him, there were hundreds of gray dwarves, each of them an elite warrior.
“Princess Lorraine!”
A kind smile appeared on the gray dwarf Xavier’s face.
He was the tier 7 powerhouse who took the initiative to join the Gray Dwarf Castle, the sky swordsman of the Gray Dwarf clan!
Now, he had fulfilled his promise.
He had brought over 100 elite gray dwarves.
They were here to help the little loli defend the castle!
…
[Congratulations, Castle Lord!]
[135 gray dwarves have taken the initiative to join you. Do you wish to accept them?]
[Yes][No]
Carolyn immediately chose Yes.
Following this, Xavier brought the gray dwarves into the castle.
“Your Highness Princess Lorraine!”
The Gray Dwarven Warriors also bowed respectfully to the Little Loli.
Their loyalty had reached around 90 points.
This was very incredible!
Most of the castle lords did not have such high loyalty even when they recruited their own troops, not to mention the native intelligent creatures that came to seek refuge.
This could only mean that the Little Loli’s charm was too high.
It could directly affect the loyalty of the soldiers under her command.
“Yes, yes, Hello, everyone!”
Caroline said excitedly, “Uncle Xavier, you’ve brought so many warriors. Now, Linlin finally doesn’t have to worry about the Beast Tide!”
The dwarf Xavier said seriously, “Your Highness, don’t worry. With our gray dwarves here, no monster can destroy your castle. The gray dwarves will protect the Gray Dwarf Castle to the death and protect Your Highness!”
“Yes, yes!”
The little loli quickly nodded.
“But…”
Xavier suddenly hesitated, “Your Highness, we may not have enough food!”
The little loli quickly said, “Linlin can contact Big Mike right away. We have more than 5,000 units of refined iron. We can exchange with Big Mike for a large amount of food.”
“Praise the princess!”
The dwarf Xavier let out a sigh of relief.
Although the gray dwarves were small in size, they ate a lot.
Especially the gray dwarf warriors. They needed sufficient food to ensure that it would not affect the battle.
As for the ‘Big Mike’ that the little loli mentioned.
The dwarf Xavier also knew about it.
He had heard the princess talk about ‘Big Mike’ many times.
He was a legendary Castle Lord.
He was at the peak of billions of Castle Lords.
He was looking forward to meeting Mike the great in the future and admiring this legendary figure.
“Uncle Xavier, I’ve already talked to Mike the Great.”
“When the equipment is auctioned, he will exchange a large amount of refined iron with me.”
“It’s still early, there are still a few hours left.”
“Linlin, the most important thing now is to hurry up and forge the equipment.”
“So, let’s wait for a while!”
The little loli smiled at the dwarf Xavier and said.
“Yes, Princess Lorraine!”
“Then I will take the other dwarven warriors to patrol around the castle and observe the situation!”
With that, the dwarf Xavier left with the other dwarven warriors.
Only the little loli was left on the spot, commanding the gray dwarven blacksmiths to continue forging equipment.
…
In the Dragon King Castle.
There were earth dragons patrolling non-stop.
Mike was also slowly waiting in the castle room.
While looking at the exchange, he was scrolling through the world chat channel.
The exchange was also bustling.
From the afternoon until now, they had been trading for fine iron.
Once the fine iron was on the shelves, it would be immediately sold out.
For the evening auction, they were constantly searching for materials.
And the world chat channel was equally bustling.
Mike’s auction message in the afternoon.
The popularity of the world chat channel did not decrease.
[There are only six hours left before the equipment is auctioned!]
[Oh! I haven’t even gathered enough refined iron. There are only a few dozen units. It seems like there’s no hope!]
[Didn’t you see that those high-level and top-tier Castle Lords are all rushing to buy refined iron? We can’t get high-level equipment, but we still have low-level equipment!]
[The person above is right. It’s better to get low-level equipment than to do it bare-handed!]
[I’m really looking forward to this auction!]
[Yes, I hope that the equipment in this auction will give us a surprise.]
…
Time slowly passed.
Half an hour before the auction.
Mike sent a message to the Little Loli in the underground world.
First, he asked about the forging of fine iron and equipment.
The little loli quickly replied.
After a short exchange.
Caroline placed all the fine iron stored in the castle into the [space exchange], along with a high-tier armor suitable for Mike.
The designated buyer was Mike.
Very quickly, the exchange was successful.
A large amount of food appeared out of thin air in the warehouse of the gray dwarf castle.
Caroline said to the dwarf Xavier, “uncle Xavier.”
“Big Mike gave Linlin 1,500 units of food.”
“Praise the Lord of the legendary castle!”
The dwarf Xavier nodded with a smile.
This batch of food was enough to solve the current food crisis in the Gray Dwarf Castle.
“It will be 12 o’clock in half an hour.”
“Big Mike told Linlin to put the equipment on the trading floor on time…”
“Oh…”
“Low-level equipment and mid-level equipment should be separated. One set for every ten sets, in exchange for wood and stones.”
“High-level equipment should be auctioned separately, only for fine iron…”
“Understood!”
The little loli quickly instructed the dwarves to bring out all the equipment.
They divided the equipment into categories and set them into sets.
Soon, it was twelve o’clock.
There were already many castle lords waiting in the trading area.
