Another roar was heard!
The entire gnome tribe felt like they were experiencing an earthquake within themselves.
The word midget was their reverse scale.
All the gnomes thought of themselves as the most perfect and noble race in this world. And when someone kept using the words damn midget and little midget, this was an insult to them. An extremely huge insult!
Flames of rage were shooting out from most of the gnome race here.
They all had ugly expressions on their faces.
When they found out the voice belonged to a despicable and greedy human being, their rage flared even higher.
"A damn human dares to come to our territory and act unbridled?"
"He even dares to curse at our Lord Ben? Did he eat a bear's heart or a leopard's gall?"
"Kill him!"
"Those damn greedy humans should be annihilated. Once they've been destroyed, the entire world will be peaceful once again."
In less than half a minute, a large crowd of gnomes with various weapons rushed towards Maxwell's location.
Filled with killing intent, they kicked up lots of dust while heading towards their target.
Their momentum was exceptionally fierce!
Maxwell had managed to anger the entire gnome race.
Of course, the gnome race was extremely angry, but Maxwell's anger was no less than theirs. He almost didn't make it out of the Hell Array alive. If he didn't avenge himself, then his name wouldn't be called Maxwell!
His tone of voice was a bit unbridled...
But he has always been crazy like that!
So what if he stirs up public outrage?
He wasn't afraid of it!
Moreover, he naturally had a hidden purpose for being so loud!
Maxwell wanted Fernando to hear his voice so that he would know his boss was coming to rescue him!
In addition, if Fernando was really the gnome race's prince, then something bad must've happened to his father. Since something bad had happened, Maxwell wanted to use this opportunity to cause an even bigger ruckus because this was beneficial to Fernando.

Ben's expression underwent many changes as hatred could be seen in his gaze. He then growled out, "You refuse to take the path towards heaven, yet chose to break into the gates of hell. You dare to act wild in my race's territory? Good, good, good!"
After saying good three times in a row, his expression turned serious as he shouted: "Gather the Iron Blood Corps; I want that kid to die without a burial!"
Immediately after, one of the guards quickly left the main hall.
Ben turned around and looked at Fernando, who had eyes showing some surprise and joy. Ben then coldly said, "Little prince, do you really think that humans can save you? Quit dreaming. In less than half an hour, he will die a very painful death! Humph!"
"You'd better obediently wait here; I'll take care of you when I come back!"
Ben coldly shouted with a completely different expression from before.
Fernando didn't make a noise as he started worrying about Maxwell.
This is the gnome race's territory, where their most elite forces reside. How can a mere human be their opponent?
"Humph!"
"My boss isn't going to die."
"He isn't just some normal human. He's a human who can grill the world's most delicious barbecued meat! How can a normal human be capable of that? Nothing will happen to him. The boss will definitely smash every one of them flying, humph!" Fernando said to himself.
His tone was slightly lacking because he was actually quite worried!
"Not good!"
"I need to find a way to get out of here and help the boss." Fernando made up his mind. He then looked at the main hall's entrance with four guards there as sentries. They happened to be all personal guards of Asher.
Wanting to leave by the main entrance was impossible.
Fernando's eyeballs quivered as a slight smirk appeared on his face.

Maxwell was standing on top of a large rock as he watched a huge number of densely packed gnomes rushing towards him. He then grinned: "Holy shit, so many gnomes are coming over."
He was a bit shocked...
Because he didn't expect so many of them to come at the same time.
And they all happen to look quite angry and aggressive. Could this be the beginning of a scene where he was ganged up on?
"He's over there!"
"Beat him to death for me! This damn human dares to call us little midgets? We need to let him know that ten thousand years ago, we were taller than the dragon race! We are also taller than the sea race! He dares to call us little midgets?"
"We've ridden on dragons; we've commanded giant titans; we are the world's most perfect race!"
Countless angry shouts were heard.
But their words almost made Maxwell laugh out loud.
He had no idea what the gnome race looked like ten thousand years ago, but he was definitely clear on their current appearance. The gnome race didn't even reach his thigh and was even shorter than a dwarf, and they described themselves as tall?
Are they trying to make me laugh?
Of course, Maxwell didn't laugh out loud because this would be adding disrespect on top of disrespect.
Around this time, in the rear of the large crowd were two columns of soldiers in armour holding onto steel spears. They were rushing over with Ben leading in front.
Ben was wearing a robe embroidered with various birds and beasts, which made him stand out from the crowd. Maxwell spotted him immediately and sneered, "Ben, you finally decided to show up? You've made me wait for a long time already."
The flames of anger inside Maxwell's heart erupted upon seeing Ben.
Thinking of all the injuries he suffered in the Hell Array, the flames of anger he was feeling couldn't be suppressed anymore.
Ben pointed at Maxwell off at a distance and loudly shouted: "A damn human like you dares to act recklessly in our race's territory? This old man thinks you must be feeling that you've lived too long! Iron Blood Corps, listen to my command!"
Many soldiers roared in a mighty manner.
"Kill him for me!"
Their steel spears moved in unison, all pointing towards Maxwell's direction.
A cold smile appeared on Maxwell's face as he said complacently: "You'll be begging for your life in front of me very soon, hahaha..."
"Beg in front of you?"
"You damn little midget, you're overthinking things!"
Maxwell smiled mockingly. Seeing how all the Iron Blood soldiers were rushing towards him, Maxwell noticed there was no one around Ben now. The ridiculing sneer on his face was annoying the crap out of him.
In an instant, Maxwell shouted: "Ghost Steps!"
"Level 2!"
A light breeze appeared around Maxwell's feet before his body disappeared from the spot.
Multiple phantom images of Maxwell were seen in the air heading towards Ben.
A shocked expression appeared on Ben as he shouted, "Quickly come back! That kid is flying towards me!"
He almost shit his pants from fear and almost forgot to run away.
The speed of the gnome race was rather fast, so that naturally held for Ben. But he was panicking from recalling Maxwell's previous slap, so he was instilled with fear. He was so scared that it even affected his normally quick speed.
Maxwell had instantly caught up and landed in front of him. Maxwell then revealed a grim reaper-like smile and coldly said, "You! Keep running, why don't you? Go on, keep running and acting arrogant."
"You lowly human, do you dare to kill me?"
"I am an official minister of the gnome race. If you dare..."
Maxwell was too lazy to listen to the rest of his words and directly slapped out.
