While the group from the basin was still on their way back to the iron and stone hill, the troop of dwarfs who had previously confronted the villagers returned to the barbican.
Immediately after, bringing forty men with him, the dwarf Leader rushed out without stopping, heading in a northwestern direction.
Along the way, sparing no expense despite the pained look on his face, he used a purple-glowing instrument to cast an Empowerment on the lizard coolies.
A purple light flashed. The lizards gained incredible speed, covering a full fifty kilometers in just four or five minutes!
This marked the edge of the barbican's territory.
Unlike when Li Hu and his men entered the territory, the squad led by the dwarf Leader charged right in without encountering the slightest resistance.
It was as if the boundary barriers between the territories had completely vanished!
