Gusta did not drop any equipment or items after his death.
He was a quest NPC, so it was normal for him to not drop anything. Chen Mo was already very satisfied to be able to get two dark gold weapons from Gusta.
After killing Gusta, Chen Mo took out a magic scroll from his backpack.
He tore the scroll apart, and a blue ball of light shot into the sky. It exploded in the dark night sky, forming a beautiful firework.
"He actually succeeded!"
Outside the dwarven capital, Maccardo led a group of dwarves to look at the fireworks in the sky with joy.
This firework was a signal. If Chen Mo successfully killed Gusta, he would be able to use this firework. When Maccardo received the news, he would take advantage of the chaos and rush into the capital, not giving the gold-worshipping dwarves any time to react.
Chen Mo spent about 30 seconds to kill Gusta. After he released the firework signal, the dwarves only rushed over after a while.
"Kill him!"
Seeing Gusta's corpse on the ground, some of the dwarves were enraged and roared, but many of them started to panic.
"Kill!"
Facing the incoming dwarves, Chen Mo did not retreat.
If the dwarves came earlier, it would be very difficult to kill Gusta. However, this did not mean that Chen Mo was afraid of these dwarves.
With Totoro, Black Phoenix, and Big Fat, as well as himself, these dwarves could not do anything to him.
Moreover, after eating the Ice Flame Fruit, the strength of his three contracted beasts increased significantly. They were actually stronger than Chen Mo expected.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
...
Both sides clashed, and a series of loud noises sounded in the capital.
"The leader of the rebel army, Gusta, has been assassinated!"
"The assassin is very powerful. There is only one of him, and the palace guards are not his match!"
"I heard that King Maccardo came back with his men!"
Amidst the loud rumbling, similar news spread like the wind.
News of Gusta's death and the fact that the assassin didn't leave arrogantly after killing Gusta and was fighting with the dwarven guards, as well as the fact that Maccadeus had returned, many of the young gold-worshipping dwarves began to panic, and some even began to sneak away.
Soon, when Ma Cashew killed his way into the capital city, the gold-worshipping dwarves, who were already in a panic, were defeated without much resistance. Ma Cashew easily took back the capital city.
After taking back King's City, there were undoubtedly a lot of things that Maccadeus had to do. However, he still found Chen Mo immediately.
"Respected adventurer, thank you very much for your help!
You are the most powerful adventurer I have ever seen. You are worthy of being the owner of a magical city that even several empires couldn't do anything to. I, Maccardi, am willing to establish a friendly relationship with you. Please leave the matter of the craftsmen to me. One hundred craftsmen, I guarantee that each of them has at least advanced craftsmanship skills. I will persuade them to work in your city within three days. "
When Maccadeus saw Chen Mo, he spoke with great sincerity.
Chen Mo's performance was too eye-catching. Not only did he successfully kill Gusta, but he also restrained a large portion of the dwarven guards. If it wasn't for Chen Mo, Maccadeus knew that even if he could take back King's City, it wouldn't be that easy.
Since Chen Mo could easily kill Gusta, it wouldn't take much effort to kill him. Of course, Maccadeus would keep his promise to Chen Mo.
Not only that, but Maccadeus also wanted to establish a good relationship with Chen Mo.
The other empires were high and mighty, and they treated the dwarven kingdom with an attitude of being at their beck and call.
In Maccashu's opinion, Chenmo, who had Katrin, was very likely to develop into one of the Five Great Empires, or even have the potential to surpass the Five Great Empires. Having a good relationship with Chenmo was beneficial to the Dwarf Kingdom.
"No problem. Also, I'll have to ask King Maccadeus to send troops to help us take back the Spring of Elves."
Chen Mo nodded. Maccadeus's mission was considered complete, and the next step was to help the elves take back the Spring of Elves.
The Spring of Elves was quite a distance away from King's City. At the very least, Black Phoenix wouldn't be able to last that long. If Totoro continued to attack, it would probably be counted as another attack. Therefore, Chen Mo had already discussed with Maccadeus. Once they successfully took back King's City, Maccadeus would send troops to help him take back the Spring of Elves.
Maccadeus was still a little hesitant when he agreed, but now that Chen Mo had brought it forward again, Maccadeus didn't even think about it. He nodded and turned around to arrange for the dwarven soldiers to follow Chen Mo to where the elves originally lived.
News of Gusta's death and Maccadeus taking back King's City had already spread.
Taking back the Spring of Elves was a lot easier than Chen Mo had expected. As soon as he appeared with the dwarven soldiers, the gold-worshipping Dwarves that were guarding there all ran away.
In the following time, Maccadeus dealt with the aftermath of the Dwarven Kingdom's rebellion, while Chen Mo brought a few hundred elves and moved to Katrin.
The Spring of Elves was moved to a place not too far away from the Sky Tree, and the Tree of Life that hadn't been growing for long was also planted there.
The Spring of Elves had been occupied by the gold-worshipping Dwarves for a few days. Fortunately, Gusta also attached great importance to the Spring of Elves, but didn't have time to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, are you really going to leave us?"
At the seaside, a group of elves begged the Elven Queen, wanting her to stay.
After moving the Spring of Elves to Katrin, the Elven Queen announced that she was leaving the elven race.
"I'm no longer the Elven Queen. From today onwards, I'm only an ordinary elf. I've already passed the position of Elven Queen to Faena.
Faena is still young, so you have to teach her and make her a better Elven Queen than me.
I'm only leaving temporarily, and I'll return to the elven race sooner or later. You don't have to worry about me. "
The Elven Queen shook her head, gently stroking the face of the seven or eight year old elf in front of her as she spoke to the elves.
Faena was the elf girl who was supposed to become the new Elven Queen after she stepped down. Now, the Elven Queen had passed the position to her ahead of time.
"Big sister Andrea." Faena looked at the Elven Queen with teary eyes.
Becoming the Elven Queen at such a young age was clearly a heavy responsibility for Faena. She was the one who wanted the Elven Queen to stay and continue to be the Elven Queen.
"Faena, listen to the other elven brothers and sisters. You'll become an outstanding Elven Queen.
Also, the adventurer who owns this city is a trustworthy person, but he's also a dangerous person. You can trust him, but you can't have too much contact with him. Too much contact isn't good for you. You have to remember this. "
The Elven Queen glanced at the distant Chen Mo and warned Faena.
Faena didn't understand why the Elven Queen would say something so complicated, but she still nodded.
Then, the Elven Queen floated away under the gazes of the elves.
