[The blacksmith looks a little sulky, but the target of his sulking is not you, but the old priest. If you ask carefully, you may be able to get some new clues...]
Lu Qing, who was observing the blacksmith, was stunned. He didn't expect that the notebook would come into play at this time.
"Is this mithril ingot a very precious thing?" Lu Qing asked after thinking for a while.
"certainly."
The blacksmith said without raising his head: "This was rewarded by the Holy See headquarters to the old priest after he completed a task. At that time, he asked me to make a mithril sword. This piece of mithril ingot is the leftover after making the long sword.
The lower piece."
Having said this, the blacksmith curled his lips and said:
"Huh, I tried hard for a long time but failed to get this piece of mithril ingot. I didn't expect to give it to you like this."
"call......."
The old blacksmith pulled the bellows of the furnace, and blazing flames rose. Lu Qing, who was in the shed, felt the temperature around her rise rapidly.
After a moment of silence, the old blacksmith asked:
"Can you tell me the details of last night?"
"sure."
Lu Qing told in detail what happened last night, including the fact that he went to the square where Anna was burned to death and met the hunter.
But regarding [Anna's heart], Lu Qing didn't mention a word. It would be better if only she knew about this kind of thing.
As for the priest, Lu Qing didn't know why, after what happened last night, the priest didn't ask her what the glowing thing on her hand was.
"Maybe it's just used as a special prop. After all, the clothes I'm wearing look quite expensive. It's normal to have one or two protective props." Lu Qing could only think in her heart.
"You met that guy." The blacksmith said after listening to Lu Qing's words.
"That guy...referring to the hunter?" Lu Qing asked with some uncertainty.
"That's him." The blacksmith nodded, and the expression on his face became a little gloomy.
"What that guy didn't tell you is that Anna is actually his daughter."
"Anna is the hunter's daughter?!"
Lu Qing was somewhat surprised when she heard the old blacksmith's words. She didn't expect that things would turn out like this.
"Otherwise, why do you think someone would just pass by a square that is usually empty of people?"
"Ever since Anna was burned to death, he has been going there often. He is also the only guy who won't have any accidents even if he gets close to the residue."
"Do hunters hate those knights?" Lu Qing asked.
After all, Anna was burned alive by those knights in the end. It must have been quite uncomfortable for a father to watch his daughter being burned to death.
"Hate? There should be some, but what the hunter hates the most is the monster that makes Anna go crazy. Even if those knights don't come, Anna will probably be alienated in a few days in her state. The hunter knows very well.
After all, he and the priest have been friends since childhood."
The old blacksmith's conversational box was completely opened by Lu Qing. Anyway, he was just idle. With his skills, he just made a dagger, and there was no need to take it seriously.
If the crafting material were not mithril ingots, the old blacksmith felt that he could shape the dagger with his eyes closed.
He told Lu Qing that the hunter had been out frequently in recent years, looking for the source of Anna's changes.
Because the old priest was the administrator of the small town church, he could not provide much help to his friends. He could only provide some holy water or supplies from time to time to help the hunters.
According to the blacksmith, the fog this time is related to Anna's mutation, and the old priest and hunter have already started to prepare for this problem.
"So, as long as nothing happens, this fog will end in a short time. Then you should go back to your home quickly and don't wander around outside. Big cities are better than small towns like us.
Itβs much safer.β The blacksmith said while banging the mithril ingot.
"Is it really okay to tell me this kind of thing? And why do you know so much, boss?"
Lu Qing looked at the old blacksmith's hammer hitting the red mithril ingot, sporadic sparks bursting out, and said.
"Anyway, the priest gave you the mithril ingot. It doesn't matter if you tell you these things, as long as you don't talk nonsense. As for how I know..."
After a pause, the blacksmith said: "The whole town knows that I am the priest's brother. Of course I will know this kind of thing."
The corner of his mouth twitched twice, and Lu Qing said speechlessly: "That's it..."
Suddenly, as if he thought of something, the blacksmith took out an iron key from his pocket, handed it to Lu Qing and said:
"Go to my house and look in the cabinet next to the bed in the bedroom to see if there is a notebook on how to use a dagger. If you can find it, I will give you that book."
"Is it really okay to just give me the key to the room?" Lu Qing thought as she took the key in a daze.
Seemingly seeing what Lu Qing was thinking, the old blacksmith said:
"There is nothing in my house that is valuable enough for a noble lady to take notice of."
"oh."
Without explaining that she was not a noble lady at all, Lu Qing picked up the key and walked step by step to the door of the blacksmith's house.
Using the key to unlock the door, she took off the lock, pushed the door open and walked in.
It looks like an ordinary room, with some sharp-looking weapons hanging on the walls.
Arriving at the blacksmith's bedroom, Lu Qing rummaged through the cabinet next to the wooden bed. With good luck, he found a worn notebook in the first drawer he opened.
The notebook looked old, and the pages were a little yellow. Picking it up carefully, Lu Qing put the notebook on the table aside and gently opened the pages.
Before she had time to read the above content, the notice board in her mind refreshed rapidly.
[Special knowledge found, entering in progress...]
The pages of the book placed on the table moved automatically without any wind, so fast that Lu Qing was worried that the notebook would fall apart.
[Information is entered and training has been generated: basic dagger, dagger throwing. γ
[The hut currently does not have a training room, players are requested to upgrade the hut level as soon as possible! γ
After coming back to her senses, Lu Qing quickly checked the contents on the notice board, but except for a few sentences that had just been refreshed, there were no changes.
Based on the above information, it seems that the entry function of the cabin is of little use to her now, at least, that was the way it was before she upgraded the cabin.
In desperation, Lu Qing could only sit up again, turn the notes to the first page, and read them carefully.
[If skills cannot crush the opponent, then never use daggers and long weapons to fight enemies head-on. Sneak attacks, backstabbing, assassinations, and running away with one hit are always the first principles of fighting with daggers. Of course, this notebook will not
Teach you these.]
[This notebook will only improve your ability to use daggers in frontal combat, greatly improving your survival rate when you have to fight the enemy. I hope you will never use these skills, although this is impossible. ]
