Chapter 598: Hollowed Mountain



Wow!

"Is this the Forge Castle?"

When the two people walked out of the canyon, everything in front of them suddenly became clear. At a glance, it was already another field.

In front of Nalant and the others, there was a vast, flat open space.

The size of this open space, based on Nalant's experience, is not inferior to the area within Maple Leaf City.

You must know that Maple Leaf City is a large city that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

In this open space, there are densely packed stone houses scattered everywhere. From a distance, smoke is lingering above the houses, and the streets are crowded with people. It looks like a prosperous human race city, and behind it, it blends into the forest and cannot be seen for three days.

There is a world of difference between a single figure.

Of course, this is not the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing is at the back of the open space.

There is a towering mountain peak hundreds of meters high. Although it is far away, Nalant and others can still see the doorways on the mountain peak.

"I have long heard that the dwarves' Forge of the Furnace was actually transformed from a mountain range. It looks really spectacular. The dwarves actually hollowed out such a huge mountain and transformed it into a residential fortress!"

Luo Er stared blankly at the mountain range in front of him. Even the young nobleman from the Blue Shield Empire was shocked.

Although Nalant, a time traveler, had seen many magnificent buildings in his previous life, he was equally shocked when he was there.

In fact, he had heard Old White talk about the wonders of the Forge Castle the night before.

The Forge Keep is named after this peak.

Narant didn't know whether this mountain peak was a volcano, but according to Old White, there was magma inside the mountain peak.

This is the biggest reason why the dwarves chose this place as a place to settle.

When dwarves forge various weapons and equipment, furnaces are naturally indispensable.

But here, they can rely on the high temperature of magma to forge weapons.

In this way, not only can the temperature reach the required height, but it can also avoid the need to consume a lot of living resources.

Moreover, the dwarves went to great lengths to hollow out the entire mountain peak and built it into a huge fortress that could both be lived in and forge weapons.

Of course, that mountain range is considered the core of the dwarves, and the dwarves who can live on it are also noble beings among the dwarves.

Other humans or races who come here cannot enter privately without an invitation.

The current activity area of ​​Nalant and the others is the wide gathering place in front of the mountain.

"Who are you?" Just as the two of them were looking at the Forge of the Furnace in a daze, a group of heavily armed soldiers not far away was already walking towards them.

This group of guards wore heavy iron armor and helmets, and the weapons in their hands were either sledgehammers or axes. Although there were only a dozen of them, they gave people a strong sense of oppression.

Of course, if it weren't for the obvious shortcomings of the height of this team of guards, they would definitely be the most intimidating army in Nalant's mind.

Nalant knew that these were dwarf soldiers, and they were so called because of their height.

The height of these dwarves is no more than 1.5 meters. In this world, even human serfs are only 1.78 meters, which is really short.

However, even though they are short, these dwarves are extremely tall. Their arms alone are as big as Nalant's thighs, and even wider.

Those gnarled muscles, and the way he walked as if he was holding a sledgehammer weighing more than a hundred kilograms.

It can be said that this is the only humanoid creature that Nalant has ever seen that can compare with the barbarians.

Of course, these dwarves also have other iconic features, which are their big noses and long beards.

That beard has been accumulated over many years, and it is comparable to the length of the hair of little Lolita and others.

"Dwarf guards, we are a caravan from the Holy Alliance. We came to Furnace Castle to buy some weapons and equipment."

Luo Er also looked at it carefully for a moment, and then answered with a smile.

"Which empire do you come from!" It was obvious that these dwarves were accustomed to the arrival of human caravans. They didn't say much else, but naturally asked about their origins.

"We are from the Blue Shield Empire!"

"Blue Shield Empire? Then please come in. Also, I hope you can abide by the laws of our Forge Castle. You are not allowed to fight at will, and you are not allowed to do anything to harm the dwarves!"

"no problem!"

After speaking to the dwarf, Rohr gestured towards Nalant, and then the two led the team towards the gathering place ahead.

Soon, a group of them arrived outside the gathering place. To Nalant's surprise, he actually saw many ordinary human beings.

"Nalant, don't be surprised. Although the Forge of the Furnace is far away from the Alliance, because the weapons they forge are the best in the entire continent, many empires have stationed and manned them here."

"In addition, many large caravans also have their base here."

"That's it!" Nalant nodded. Following Rohr was really beneficial. Although this guy was here for the first time, he knew these common sense much better than him.

Even because of the time gap and status issues, even Old White didn't understand many things clearly.

After obtaining Rolle's real name, Nalant and Old White also discussed that Rolle's status in the Holy Continent should not be low.

Just the surname Blue Shield indicates that he is a member of the royal family of the Blue Shield Empire.

Regardless of whether he is a direct bloodline of the King of the Empire or not, he can be regarded as the top noble young master of the Holy Alliance.

Following Rolle through the streets, Nalant did not ask about the final destination, but kept observing the appearance on both sides of the streets.

This dwarf is indeed a race born to make blacksmiths. The most shops in this gathering place are blacksmith shops. There is a blacksmith shop every few dozen meters.

Each of the burly dwarf blacksmiths waved their hammers and kept hitting the iron ore, knocking the red iron blocks until sparks flew everywhere. If it were night, the effect would be similar to setting off fireworks.

Of course, Nalant's focus was not on the appearance of these dwarves forging iron, but on the long swords hanging in front of their shops.

Nalant clearly saw that many of these iron swords should be mithril swords. Although the handles were rough, they were no different from those used by the church paladins.

Seeing these mithril swords, Nalant's heart was filled with excitement. Judging from the situation, these mithril swords should not be scarce here.

But if they are transported back to the Holy Continent, they will become absolutely high-quality and precious weapons.

In addition to the large number of blacksmith shops, the second feature of this dwarf gathering place is naturally the taverns. Some of these taverns are simple and some are luxurious, and their number is only one or two percent less than the blacksmith shops.

However, no matter which tavern he passed by, Nalant could see that the tavern was full of dwarves.

All the dwarves were drinking heavily from wooden cups, their broad noses were red from drinking, and their big beards were shaking constantly.
