"The auction house is a rather special building. Firstly, it occupies a relatively large area, and secondly, the decoration and structure are relatively sophisticated, so the construction cost is also very high. The most basic auction house requires 100 gold coins to build."

"That's a lot. Okay, you'd better build the teleportation array to the Goblins first. We'll talk about the auction house after I get back from the City of Ice and Snow."

After leaving the city lord's palace, he went straight to Lu Kang's shop. Lu Kang and Lu Qin were brothers in the same discipline, but their skills were in different directions. Lu Kang inherited Lu Qiaoshou's craftsmanship and is now an outstanding god-level craftsman.

"Little City Lord, why are you here? Sit down quickly."

"Grandpa Lu Kang, General Manager Lu Qin said that Testin and the others were in danger in the City of Ice and Snow, and asked me to rescue them. In order to fight against the monsters there, I need to improve my ice resistance, so I want you to

Help me drill holes in the equipment and inlay it with sapphires."

"That's right, of course there is no problem, but is it useful for you to go? Although you are very talented, you are too young. If your master can't solve the crisis in Ice and Snow City, it will be in vain for you to go."

"I'm not going to help fight off monsters, but to deliver space crystals. As long as the teleportation array is activated there, the Ice and Snow Tribe and Longteng City's armies can return to Longteng City through the teleportation array. As long as everyone is fine, sooner or later we will

Kill them back."

"Okay, okay, I'll help you drill holes right now, and give me the equipment you need to drill holes."

He now has 9 saber-toothed tiger fangs and 7 gems. He has 7 pieces of equipment including the wild leather hat, tiger skin shoulder pads, purple gold leg armor, floating shadow ring, fairy tilt, transformation cloak, gray wolf mask and saber-toothed tiger.

The fangs were handed to Lu Kang together. The success rate of drilling the first hole in the equipment is very high, and it is almost guaranteed to be successful. He has not drilled a single gem in the equipment now, so there is no need to risk the second hole.

One hole at a time, one at a time is the safest approach.

Lu Kang quickly helped him drill the holes. He paid Lu Kang 1,000 silver coins. The original cost was only 700 silver coins, and the excess was treated as a tip. For drilling equipment, the first hole is the cheapest and only costs 100 silver coins.

The second hole costs 500 silver coins, the third hole costs 2,000 silver coins, and the last hole requires 1 gold coin. Moreover, this skill is the same as appraisal, it is an official monopoly and players cannot learn it.

Fortunately, players can learn gem inlay, otherwise the dragon map would be too dark. Li Mu has learned inlay, but he has no chance to practice. He first tried to inlay a third-grade sapphire gem, but failed three times in a row.

However, there is no penalty if the first hole fails to be set, it just wastes a little time. If the second hole fails, there is a chance that the gem in the first hole will be damaged.

For the fourth time, Li Mu finally succeeded, and a system prompt came to his ears: the third-grade sapphire was successfully inlaid, the purple-gold leg armor gained a new attribute, water resistance, increased by 15 points, and the equipment could no longer be inlaid with sapphires.

Once again, he set a 3rd grade ruby ​​on the wolf mask. The wolf mask also gained a new attribute, constitution +9.

After succeeding again, he did not stop and set two fourth-grade sapphires on the wild leather hat and tiger skin shoulder pads, and one fourth-grade yellow sapphire on the Liuying Ring, gaining the attribute of Strength +14. The two

A fourth-grade ruby ​​was set on the Immortal Tilting Necklace and the Transformation Cloak respectively, gaining a physical attribute of +14.

After the inlay was completed, he said goodbye to Lu Kang and came to Qinglong City again.

"How's it going? Are you ready? If you're ready, we'll set off."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Li Mu took the lead and walked to the north gate.

Coming to Wanglongyuan again, although everyone's level has not changed much, their strength has improved a lot. The Yalong here is no longer an opponent. Of course, it is limited to the high-level Yalong in the center of Wanglongyuan. They are still invincible.

Yes, but the mercenary group is just passing by here, and there is no need to provoke the dragon deep in the Wanglong Abyss.

When passing by Yunmengze, Mouzi suggested that he go to Thunder Eagle's territory again. If he could get dozens more pet eggs, he would make a lot of money.

But when they rushed into the familiar cave, it was empty, not even a bird feather. Not only that, there was no sign of a Thunder Eagle along the way.

"Let's go, don't have any extravagant hopes. We have plundered the Thunder Eagle's nest several times. They have already given up here and moved."

Looking at the disappointed mouse, Li Mu said with a smile.

In the small town of Chaxi, a few people rushed to the elemental jungle without stopping, and it turned dark.

After only a few days apart, Li Mu visited again. The Elf Queen was a little curious and asked why.

There was nothing to hide about this matter, so Li Mu told the whole story about the mission. After hearing this, the Elf Queen fell into deep thought. After thinking for a while, she said, "Hey, this human world has only been quiet for less than 200 years, and it is about to face it again.

I don’t know if I can survive the catastrophe this time.”

"Man can conquer nature, as long as all the races on the continent unite and work together. It is not difficult to defeat the gods and demons."

"But here's the problem. It seems that the gods and demons are about to invade again. However, there are constant wars between various races, including the elemental elves and night elves, the ice and snow tribe and the fire soul tribe, the goblin tribe and the human tribe, the dwarf tribe and the orc tribe, etc.

Wait, the conflicts between each other are becoming more and more frequent. If there is no evil between the gods and demons, I will be the first to not believe it."

"Yes." Hearing what the Elf Queen said, Li Mu also let out a long and helpless sigh, causing trouble for Xiao Qiang. No matter how powerful a country or race is, it will eventually disintegrate from within. "How are you elemental elves and night elves doing now?

"

"After this disaster, I also figured out that we are born from the same roots. In the end, it was inappropriate to kill each other because of our living habits and skin color, so I sent Sith elders to the night elves' territory to negotiate with them, hoping to be able to negotiate with them

After reaching a settlement, we very much welcome their willingness to return to the Elemental Jungle. If they want to live in the Dark Night Jungle, we have no objection."

"What was the outcome of the negotiations? I heard that they were very ungrateful and even rejected the Demon Hunter, the God of War who once led them to glory."

"You are wrong about this. They reject Stormrage not because he has no fighting ability now. But because they believe that it was Stormrage who rebelled against the elemental jungle, which caused the elemental elves and night elves to split and start a 200-year civil war.

.”

"That's it, okay. I can't say who is right and who is wrong regarding matters within your clan. I hope the elemental elves and night elves can get back on good terms and end this meaningless internal strife."

"Thank you for your blessing. I will definitely work hard. By the way, you should rest early. I will ask Lanaya to send you there tomorrow morning. No matter what, the night elf will still sell me a favor and let you pass through the dark night jungle.

"

"Thank you very much."

At dawn the next day, the mercenary group was ready to set off.

Ranaya, who had not seen her for a long time, brought some fruit wine and some fruits to a few people. The hospitality was so warm that Li Mu and others had no choice but to taste it before setting off.

For some reason, the last time I came to the Earth Dragon's Lair, the Earth Dragons here still had bright red names, but this time their names have changed to white. This is a neutral color. As long as you don't attack it, it will not attack you.

As soon as they arrived at the Dark Night Jungle, they saw densely packed night elves. Lanaya was brave enough to directly order the elf dragon to land in the crowd, unaware that the night elves and elemental elves were still hostile.

"Hello, Aunt Hill."

After landing, Lanaya said to a woman wearing dark green leather armor.

"Lanaya, right? We haven't seen each other for more than a hundred years, and you have grown up."

After hearing the words of this female elf, Li Mu felt funny. Sister, I haven't seen her for more than 100 years. Isn't it time to grow up? But when she thought about it, the elves had a life span of thousands of years, and she felt relieved.

"Who are these humans?"

"Aunt Hill, this is an adventurer from Soaring Dragon City and a friend of the elemental elves. They were the ones who exposed the Nightmare Witch's plan last time and not only saved Uncle Stormrage, but also my mother."

"Really? I really need to thank you for your help, otherwise we would still be drowning in mutual suspicion and killing each other."

"It's okay, it's okay. The elves are our humans' best friends. This is what we should do." Li Mu also boasted at the right time.

"The little guy is really humble and sweet-tongued. So why are you coming to the Dark Night Jungle this time?"

"Aunt Hill, they have something urgent to get to the Ice and Snow City, and they need to pass through the dark night jungle."

"It's just a small matter. Please wait a moment. I will send someone to send them out of the Dark Night Jungle in a moment. Sith Elder, let's make an agreement first. The night elves will live in the Dark Night Jungle for now. If you are homesick, you can

Go to the Elemental Jungle to have a look. After all, I have lived here for so many years, and I feel a bit reluctant to leave suddenly."

"Of course, Queen Hill, this is another treasure of the elves, the Maya Divine Bow. Angela asked me to bring it to you. Since then, the elves have had two queens. The elves' scepter is owned by Angela.

Keep it, the Mayan Divine Bow is yours to keep. I hope you can work together to lead the elves to a more glorious tomorrow."

Seeing the green divine bow in the hands of Sith, Queen Hill burst into tears. With trembling hands, she took the Mayan divine bow and raised it high, "Long live the elemental elves!"

The surrounding night elves also shouted, "Long live the elemental elves!"

Queen Hill shouted again, "Long live the night elves!"

Other elves also shouted, "Long live the night elves!"

Seeing this scene, the Sith elders, Lanaya, Hill, and all the night elves present could not help but shed tears of excitement, just like the situation when the Berlin Wall was torn down in reality.

The touching scene lasted for nearly an hour before it gradually subsided. Queen Hill looked at Lanaya and said, "Lanaya, in the next time you will live in the Dark Night Jungle to familiarize yourself with the night elves' living habits and battles.

Ability, one day the night elves will still be led by you."

"Why, isn't it good for us to do this?"

"Silly girl, I'm not the real Elf Queen, so I can't pass on my abilities to the new night elves. Compared to your mother, my combat effectiveness is much worse than hers. Besides, the Fountain of Life has almost dried up, and the Tree of Life has also dried up.

It begins to wither, and there is no extra strength to create an elf king. I hope you can learn from the lessons of your predecessors and lead the elemental elves and night elves well."

"I certainly will."

Lanaya glanced at the night elves outside and said solemnly.

"Then I can rest assured, Elder Kongling, please send someone to send these humans to their resting place."

Soon, Elder Kongling arranged for 10 night elves, 4 women and 6 men, to ride over on the violent earth dragon. The men led the men, and the women led the women, and sent Li Mu and others to the north.

After leaving the dark night, there is the Forgotten City. There is no one in the Forgotten City, not even a monster is seen. This made Li Mu very curious, so he asked the night elf carrying him, "Why is there no such thing as this Forgotten City?"

one person?"

"Why not? It's just that the time has not come. The Forgotten City was originally the territory of the dwarves, and was later captured by the orcs. The orcs are naturally powerful in combat, but have low intelligence and cannot plant or produce. The dwarves are naturally

They are blacksmiths. Although they are small, they are very powerful. They are famous for making weapons and are good at growing crops. From this point of view, the dwarves can just make up for the shortcomings of the orcs."

"But here's the problem. The dwarves like to drink, but the orcs can't. The dwarves like all kinds of rare ores, and the orcs don't have them. They are so poor that they don't even have money. They need the dwarves, but the dwarves don't need them. Idiot

The orcs chose a simple and crude method to conquer the dwarves by force."

"Facts have proved that this method is undesirable. The dwarves are no match for the orcs in terms of numbers and combat power. They retreated steadily all the way. In the end, the Forgotten City was also captured by the orcs. But from beginning to end, the orcs did not get the obedience of the dwarves.

, the dwarves refused to sell anything to the orcs, and moved from the Forgotten City to the bitter cold land of the far north, becoming neighbors of the Ice and Snow Tribe. However, because all the wealth was robbed by the greedy orcs, and the transportation in the far north was inconvenient.
