The importance of the Elven Fountain to the Elves was self-evident. Otherwise, the Elven Queen wouldn't have risked her life to protect it. With the Elven Fountain back, the Elven Queen would be able to leave in peace.
The Elven Fountain could accelerate the growth of the Sky Tree. Moving the Elven Fountain to Katarina would allow the city to develop even faster.
After all, if Catelyn wanted to continue developing and upgrade to the highest level of strategic city, the city's flight system would need to reach the corresponding level. And the city's flight system relied on the Sky Tree. Only with the Elven Fountain could the Sky Tree grow.
There was also the Tree of Life that Chen Mo had asked the Elves to cultivate. After two to three months, the Tree of Life could basically grow, but it still needed the Elven Fountain to water it.
Taking back the Elven Fountain was only a matter of convenience for Chen Mo. As long as he could defeat the gold-worshipping Dwarves and help Maccasio take back the Dwarven Kingdom, the Elven Fountain would naturally be back.
So the problem was how to defeat the gold-worshipping Dwarves.
Chen Mo had discussed with Marcasio and the other dwarves about how to defeat the gold-worshipping dwarves. As long as they could kill Gusta and a few of the core gold-worshipping dwarves, the gold-worshipping dwarves would lose their leader. Then, Marcasio and his people would be able to easily take back the power.
Although it seemed simple, it wasn't easy to accomplish.
Gustav also knew that the weakness of the gold-worshipping Dwarves was himself. For the time being, he wouldn't show himself in a dangerous place. The only way to kill him was to sneak into the Dwarven Kingdom's Royal Palace. Currently, the Royal Palace's security was unprecedentedly tight. Maccasio had always given Adventurers missions to assassinate Gustav, but no one had ever succeeded. They didn't even get close to Gustav.
So this mission wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Gustav wouldn't leave the Royal Palace for the time being, and Chen Mo couldn't keep waiting for Gustav to come out.
So, Chen Mo decided to break into the Royal Palace and kill Gustav from the start.
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for players to sneak into the Royal Palace even if they had Stealth.
However, for Chen Mo, sneaking into the Royal Palace was a simple matter.
At midnight the next day, Chen Mo stayed with the Queen of the Elves until midnight, then he quietly came to the outside of the Dwarf Palace.
Under the night sky, Chen Mo put on his Angel Wings, used Fly, and activated Camouflage.
In this way, Chen Mo could fly in the sky in disguise.
The Dwarf Palace was only guarded on the ground. No one would have thought that someone could fly in from the sky.
At this time, most of the dwarves were already asleep. Only the patrolling guards were still awake.
It would take Chen Mo a lot of time to find Gusta's residence in the palace. However, as the former king, Ma Cassius had reliable information about Gusta's residence. Chen Mo arrived at Gusta's residence according to Ma Cassius's information.
However, sneaking into the palace and finding Gusta were not the real difficulties of the mission.
The most difficult and crucial part of the mission was naturally to kill Gusta.
Gusta's level was close to 75, and his health was close to 30,000,000. He was not a mission target that could be killed quickly.
After attacking Gusta, if he could not kill him quickly, a large number of dwarven guards would rush over.
Once the dwarven guards appeared, it would be even more impossible to kill Gusta.
Even so, Chen Mo still went to Gusta's residence alone. After confirming that Gusta was in the house, he immediately broke down the door.
"Who is it?!"
As the door was broken down, an old but majestic voice came from the house.
Unfortunately, this voice did not scare Chen Mo.
However, the moment he broke down the door, the alarm was already ringing in the Royal Palace.
Chen Mo knew that he only had one minute at most. He had to kill Gusta within this one minute, or a large number of guards would rush over.
To kill 30,000,000 HP in one minute, he would have to deal an average of 500,000 HP per second. It was impossible for players who had not completed their third class advancement.
Chen Mo could not do it with his own damage output.
However, in his hands, he wasn't the only one with combat power. His group of contracted beasts had the most powerful damage output in the game.
"Come out!"
Chen Mo shouted coldly as he looked at the majestic Gusta.
He had made all the necessary preparations before he came.
As soon as he gave the order, several figures suddenly appeared beside him.
Totoro, Black Phoenix, and Big Fat!
Chen Mo had returned from the Abyss region and brought back four Ice Flame Fruits.
Totoro, Black Phoenix, and Big Fat each had one Ice Flame Fruit.
Totoro was very satisfied with the Ice Flame Fruit and agreed to help Chen Mo again as a reward for Chen Mo. After Black Phoenix received the Ice Flame Fruit, its favorability with Chen Mo rose to over 90. Otherwise, Chen Mo would not have been able to get it to help.
As for Big Fat, it was getting stronger and stronger.
Chen Mo had been running around, but Big Fat had been training near Catelyn. It was almost level 70 now.
"Roar!"
Big Fat appeared and pounced on Gusta with a roar. Black Phoenix was not to be outdone. It immediately entered its second form and spat out a blue Ice Flame at Gusta.
This blue Ice Flame was a new ability it had obtained after eating the Ice Flame Fruit.
Black Phoenix was very satisfied with this new ability.
This Ice Flame had the ability to burn like fire. It also had a freezing effect on enemies that could not be killed instantly. It could greatly reduce the enemy's Attack and Movement Speed.
Totoro calmly appeared behind Gusta when it saw that its opponent was only a level 75 weakling.
Gusta was not worried at first when he knew that there was an Assassin. He knew that his arrangements were very tight. The Dwarf guards nearby would rush over and surround the enemy within a minute.
However, Gusta would never have thought that there would be such a perverted person targeting him. The person summoned three contract beasts that looked extremely powerful.
On the other hand, Chinchilla, Black Phoenix, and the fatty weren't just for show. Each of them was more powerful than the other, and Gusta, who hadn't even reached Level 75, was no match for them.
Gusta wanted to dodge, but he had lost the ability to do so under Black Phoenix's Ice Flame. Then, Big Fat and Totoro's attacks arrived one after another.
Boom!
Boom!
After two loud explosions, two huge damage figures of more than one million appeared above Gusta's head.
Big Fat's normal attack was not as high as Totoro's, but when it went all out, it was still on par with Totoro's attack.
Of course, Totoro did not go all out. Otherwise, Big Fat's attack would be far inferior to Totoro's.
Under the attacks of the three contract beasts, Gusta's HP dropped by more than three million in an instant.
…
The second attack was even worse.
