Maxwell was truly happy seeing that Fernando was still alive.

He almost cried from happiness.

Recalling that he was brought underground, he was somewhat relieved and disappointed at the same time. "It looks like the weakness of the Dragon Execution Array is underground. A peerless array capable of killing true dragons would have such a weakness."

Of course…

The weakness of the array was found unintentionally.

Fernando's eyes were filled with tears. He leapt into Maxwell's embrace and started wailing like a child. Fernando was still a kid, so the pressure he felt was much stronger compared to an adult.

Maxwell lowered himself and gently patted his forehead. He then smiled and said, "I'm perfectly fine and can continue living. It's only the fellow brothers of the spawned beast army and the brothers of the Iron Blood Corps that…"

"It's all my fault."

"I shouldn't have let you guys come with me and become cannon fodder in the end."

Maxwell started blaming himself.

Fernando used his sleeves to wipe his face. The smear of tears and snot went sideways, making him look like he was a cat with whiskers. "Boss, I still need to thank you. It was you who regained our ancestor's glory, and it was you who allowed our gnome race to once again walk with our heads raised."

Sometime in the past…

The gnomes were capable of killing true dragons.

Now they couldn't even kill a Water Dragon, and this fact made the gnome race live in humiliation every day.

Now that the Water Dragon was dead, this allowed the gnomes to walk with their heads raised once again.

Amongst the surviving Iron Blood Corps soldiers, some had an awkward expression on their faces, while some lowered their heads, not daring to look at Maxwell.

"How could I doubt the King's boss?"

"The King's boss is different from other humans, so how would he leave us behind?"

"I'm such a scumbag."

"There are good people amongst the humans, too."

Maxwell glanced at the gnomes and gave them a kind smile.

Because of his kind-looking smile, he was able to resolve their awkwardness.

This also made them truly trust Maxwell from the bottom of their hearts.

Fernando broke out into a smile. He then turned towards his tribesman with a giggle and said, "I already said that boss will never leave us behind."

Immediately after…

Fernando then softly asked: "Boss, was that array you used the Dragon Execution Array?"

He really wanted to know.

The Dragon Execution Array was forbidden to be passed onto outsiders, and only those with genius comprehension levels will be able to engrave it. Maxwell only saw Asher use it once and managed to engrave it himself. This was practically unimaginable.

The gnomes obviously didn't know that Maxwell's comprehension of the esoterics was something that exploded out of Asher's corpse.

Otherwise, how could Maxwell learn the Dragon Execution Array that fast?

Maxwell nodded and smiled vaguely.

Fernando showed an extremely shocked expression. After several seconds, he then started laughing in happiness and shouting: "Long live the boss! The boss is the most domineering! Hahaha…"

Half a day later.

At the base of the gnome's mountain.

"Boss, this is our gnome race's medal of summoning. As long as you shatter it, no matter the place, we will rush there immediately." Fernando gave Maxwell a black medal with ancient writing on the surface.

Maxwell didn't refuse it.

Seeing this medal of summoning, Maxwell couldn't help but think of the Gnome core race because their medal looked quite similar and had the same function.

Maxwell nodded and said, "You should all return. I will come back to see you guys later."

After saying that…

Maxwell waved his hand and strode into the forest.

Only when the back of Maxwell had disappeared did Fernando start crying loudly. He then shouted: "Boss! I will miss you! Boss, next time we see each other, I will definitely not cry anymore! Boss, next time we see each other, I will definitely have comprehended the esoterics of the Dragon Execution Array!"

"Goodbye, king's boss!"

Immediately after…

All the gnomes made a 90-degree bow towards the location Maxwell had disappeared to.

This was their greatest etiquette to another person.

In their hearts, Maxwell was a hero.

Because of Maxwell's appearance, the gnome race transformed and was opening a new chapter in their life.

In the depths of the forest.

"Hey brat, this place is fine, right?"

"I can't wait any longer."

"Once I fuse with Dracula's spirit, I'll be able to materialise a phantom image of myself. Hahaha… Hey brat, did you know I'm actually quite good-looking?" Dracula was urging Maxwell to hurry up since he was anxious for the outcome.

Maxwell sent out his spiritual senses over ten plus kilometres out. When he determined there was no one around, he finally stopped and said, "It should be easy to fuse with your spirit, right? I've already gathered all five elemental demon cores, so how about we first crack the Cosmic Array on the ancient scroll?"

Maxwell couldn't wait any longer either.

"Damn!"

"You brat, your speed is truly quite fast."

"It's only been a few months, yet you were able to gather the beast cores of all five elements." Dracula was inwardly surprised by this. The thing that shocked him the most was Maxwell's speed in cultivation level-ups. In just a short few months, he went from the Silver Rank all the way to the Diamond Rank. This speed practically went against the heavens!

Maxwell willed the five elemental beast cores into Dracula's hands, and the ancient scroll then started floating up into the air.

"Good!"

"The soul of these old bones of mine has recovered quite a bit, so it's time for me to crack the ancient scroll."

It's finally time to unseal it!

They were going to unseal it!

It was finally being unsealed.

Maxwell was extremely excited at this moment.

These several months in Eden could be said to be when he experienced many life and death situations. It was all for gathering the five elemental beast cores. Now that he had successfully gathered all the cores, his heart was really looking forward to the outcome.
