Although blue chalcedony is not valuable in comparison, it is not a commonly used gemstone after all. The inventory in Jianfeng City is not large. After Li Wen's hard work throughout the afternoon and night, it was almost completely emptied.
There is still a little left, which must be left to the gem craftsmen in Sword Wind City like Cadia to try to make it. They cannot always rely on outsiders or Li Wen. This is a long-term business.
It was bright and bright outside, and Helen didn't know what she was doing. She asked a guard casually and it was said that she was going to greet people coming from the imperial capital.
Li Wen didn't care either. The negotiation was Helen's business, and he didn't want to do anything with his 10% share.
After stretching and walking out of the city lord's mansion, Li Wen went straight to the dwarf's blacksmith shop.
Dwarves have nothing to say about how they treat their brothers. They can only use one word: justice.
This also made Li Wen always remember what he promised to the other party - Midsummer Festival.
For the sake of sincerity as a good brother, Li Wen deliberately looked up the traditions of the Dwarf Midsummer Festival.
This is the midpoint of summer in the eyes of dwarves, a day suitable for feasts, drinking parties, engagements and sunbathing in pleasant weather. If a storm occurs on Midsummer night, it will be regarded as a bad omen and a symbol of doom.
Sometimes it is also interpreted as God’s disapproval of the romance or engagement that occurred on this day.
And there were only three or four days left. Li Wen didn't know how long it would take to travel, whether those dwarf brothers were prepared for this, or whether they were embarrassed to tell him and so on.
But he felt that it would be more appropriate to at least take the initiative on his own.
…
The joy and anger of the dwarf were always shown on his face. Faced with the purpose of Li Wen's visit after his arrival, the face of the debtor dwarf looked extremely surprised.
"Any time is fine, how about we leave now?"
"Now?"
Li Wen was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked in the direction of his home.
"It's not impossible..."
Just leave.
In fact, after having Croxane, Li Wen almost threw all his wealth to Croxane for the convenience of traveling.
Now I am setting off to the dwarf territory, and I don’t even need to pack my luggage.
A journey that just goes away.
The dwarves moved equally quickly. When they heard Master Li Wen coming over and saying that they could go to their dwarf territory, these dwarves made noisy noises and quickly cleaned up all the mess they left in the blacksmith shop.
Clean up and close the door.
At the same time, a messenger went straight to the city lord's palace and handed Helen her resignation letter to leave.
When the two dwarves took out a few dwarf-specific dwarf wildebeests from the backyard and tied them to ropes and wooden poles, a spacious and simple carriage stopped in front of Li Wen.
Li Wen was not polite to them and got directly into the carriage.
After swaying for a while, the carriage headed straight for the teleportation array in Jianfeng City.
Teleportation arrays between humans and aliens are not available everywhere, at least not in Jianfeng City, a city that is neither a key city nor a border city.
Before setting foot on the teleportation array to the dwarf territory, Li Wen had to go around the main city teleportation array between human cities with these dwarves.
And even if there is a nearby city with a portal to the dwarf territory, they usually do not set the portal inside the city. Otherwise, once a war starts and the magic soldiers descend from the inside, it will be a lot of fun.
So do humans.
So in the future, you have to run a certain distance from the teleportation gate inside the city for humans to communicate with each other. After passing the teleportation array leading to the dwarf territory, you have to run to the nearby dwarf fortress, and then maybe still
A turnover of the teleportation circle inside the Dwarf Fortress is required.
Even if there is a teleportation array, it still takes a lot of time to actually go from Swordwind City to the core fortress of the dwarves.
…
In the morning light, Li Wen, who was standing on the teleportation circle, finally raised his head and glanced in the direction of the towering and severe City Lord's Mansion in the distance.
At this time, I think Helen is presiding over and responsible for the distribution of benefits related to the Return Spell among Sword Wind City, Golden Lion, Violet and Elves...
Fortunately, the farewell scene is also omitted.
Li Wen doesn't like to say goodbye.
Farewell only makes sense when we will never see each other again.
White light rose from the disc formation on the ground, and the rich light enveloped Li Wen and the dwarves, including the carriage.
…
Helen, who was smiling but mercilessly trying to cut off the flesh from Violet...or the Generalissimo of Dresser State, seemed to have something on her mind and suddenly looked outside the hall.
She knew about Li Wen's departure from the City Lord's Mansion and the dwarf's resignation.
So...you didn't even say hello when you left, you bastard!
…
Border city——Cuihuicheng.
As a human main city bordering the dwarf territory, there are more than just human faces here.
Loud arguments about business between dwarves and humans can be seen everywhere. The loud voices of dwarves sometimes seem to pale in comparison to some of the aunts of humans, and they often fall into the disadvantage in frontal arguments.
The two completely different aromas of ale and bread mixed in the air, setting the tone for the entire city.
Li Wen sat on the edge of the carriage and looked curiously at everything happening outside.
This was the first time that he left Jianfeng City and came to other cities in the Golden Lion Kingdom.
Human tolerance is vividly demonstrated in border cities, and unique mixed cultural elements are reflected in the city's architecture, food, clothing and other details.
In addition to the dwarves whose clothes were always dark in color and whose beards and hair were tangled together, making them look dirty, Li Wen also saw some orcs.
Those half-orcs wore primitive animal skins, and although they walked upright or semi-upright, they still retained some of the savagery and habits of their beasts in their movements.
When interacting with humans and dwarves, they would often leave with loud curses as if they were being bullied.
"Sometimes they do have some treasures, but sometimes they hold some garbage and say that humans lied to them..."
The debtor dwarf sitting next to Li Wen said softly.
The dwarf walking beside the carriage also sighed.
"Now is not the past..."
The average lifespan of dwarves is about 400 years old. This length of life gives them a lot of time to pass on some knowledge or knowledge to the next generation.
For example, in the past, the orc empire dominated the land with crazy plunder, such as their dwarf castles and fortresses spread across the mountains...
"Their bloodline has declined, and we have left the Danzo era."
"Human! Human..."
As soon as this topic was brought up, there seemed to be some resonance between the few dwarves.
Li Wen pursed his lips and did not get involved in their conversation.
It's not just the orcs who have declined, the dwarves have also lost their former glory.
Once upon a time, the dwarves also had their glorious era - the Kingdom of Danzo.
At that time, their territory was built on the Jackdaw Mountains in the east, which was like the backbone of the world, starting from the Sea of Clouds in the north and Silver Moon City in the south.
However, the north has been invaded by a group of orcs and kobolds all year round, and the south is worried about that annoying group of goblins, so that their territory has shrunk and shrunk, and several majestic castles and fortresses have now become a paradise for aliens.
For example, Mithril Hall, now one of the five major states of the Violet Kingdom, was a fortress of their dwarves in the past.
In the process of the rise of mankind, many races have suffered certain trauma. After many years, it is still unclear whether it is habit, hiding, or surrender...
Regarding this aspect, it is difficult to say much about Li Wen's position as a human being.
So I just looked at the lively scene in the border city curiously.
A kobold that looks like a lizard, except that its tail is curled like a chameleon, the tiefling overall looks much like a human...
These alien races are also intelligent creatures, with their own languages, texts, societies and their racial talents.
It's just that they are rare in number and are not the main race in the Gaia continent. They are generally rarely seen in the human kingdom, but they can be seen from time to time in this border city.
Then there is...the figure of the player.
The requirements for the shuttle spell are not high. Players who have completed certain city-building tasks in other worlds are eligible to redeem it. It is estimated that each person has one, so today's players can shuttle and stay on both sides at will without being immobilized by Croxane.
Limitations on opening hours.
And even in this border city where various races are mixed and cultural styles are different, the players' dress and behavior are always unique, and their identities can be discovered at a glance among the crowd.
Wandering around, I especially like to look for those orcs to see if I can pick up bargains, chase behind tieflings and try to play with their tails, and try to communicate with some kobolds using "barking words"...
Li Wen can discover players, and players can naturally discover Li Wen.
The player who had just been persuaded to retreat by a small pillar of fire ejected from a kobold's mouth smiled and avoided it awkwardly. When he turned around, he saw Li Wen who was sitting on the side of the carriage and watching everything curiously.
Then he stood there with his eyes wide open.
"Fuck!"
His surprise aroused the shock of his companions, who also looked over.
"Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
"How many times have I told you that we are kobolds, not dogs! We are the Argonian race! Not the orc race!"
…
The sound spread like dominoes along the long street, and was also mixed with some weird accent that came from the mainland lingua franca of the kobolds.
Although the number of players mixed in the crowd was not very large, this unanimous behavior caused even the normally normal aborigines to look towards the direction where the carriage was driving slowly, thinking that some big shot had suddenly arrived.
Li Wen's carriage swayed past the crowd, and the originally bustling market was now silent.
"..."
"Are we that famous?"
The faces of the several dwarves around Li Wen who were receiving so many gazes tensed up for a moment. It was probably the first time in their lives that they overcame the naturally loud voices of dwarves and murmured in a low voice while almost keeping their mouths still.
"Did we say something wrong just now?"
"Are they going to beat us up?"
"Can you walk faster? I'm a little panicked."
"Drive~"
The dwarf holding the reins gave a light shout to the wildebeest in front of him, and the whip fell on the butt of one of them and slapped it gently.
"Crack!"
"Da da da~"
The horse's hooves stepped on the dusty thick gray-white stone tile floor, and the crisp impact sound slightly increased in frequency.
This news made those players wake up from a dream, and they uttered the second half of the sentence.
"Compare!"
"Poppy is coming to our Cuihui City!"
"Take off!"
What's more, they plan to go to the forum to show off immediately.
"Poppy is coming to our Cuihui City! Wuhu is taking off!"
Poppy, whom they had seen countless times on various videos, was now in front of them, so there was no reason to remember it wrong.
Maybe players don’t remember what the bakery owner they pass by every day looks like, nor what the aunt who always troubles them to find chickens and ducks to find children looks like, but there is almost no player of “Gaia Continent” who doesn’t know how long Bobby is. What kind of.
This majestic and cute little face has his unique recognition wherever he is placed.
Players in Sword Wind City are not surprised at all, and many times they won't have any special reaction even when they see Li Wen.
This is the first time for these Cuihui City players to have close contact with Li Wen in the game. Even though various of Li Wen's previous creations can now be obtained in other worlds, this is Poppy!
Who knows if he will come up with more fresh stuff in the future?
For example, news has just been released that the Return Spell can only be obtained in Jianfeng City.
Even if it is possible to promote it on a large scale in the future, isn’t it better to use it early and enjoy it early?
"Lord Poppy! Is there anything you can do to help?"
"Sir Poppy! I bought a house in the city. If you are a newbie and have no place to live, you can go to my place!"
"Master Poppy, are you not going to leave in the future?"
Seeing the players starting to gather around him, Li Wen quickly got into the carriage.
With a short tone, an advanced invisibility technique was released by Li Wen.
The next moment, the curtain of the carriage blocked by the human wall opened, and several players' heads poked in together.
"No?"
"Damn it! Let him run away!"
"The mage can run fast."
A few dwarves who had never seen the world were stunned on the spot, with no time to get angry or speak.
After getting rid of the obstruction of the crowd, the carriage moved forward slowly again.
A dwarf in the carriage carefully shouted into the air around him: "Master Li Wen? Master Li Wen?"
"Shh~ I'm here, don't make a sound."
Li Wen, who was in the invisible state, replied softly.
"Oh~"
Although they stopped talking, there was only one meaning when they looked at each other - Master Li Wen is awesome!
Wherever they go, they are treated like fathers by these chosen sons, who take the initiative to greet them and try to provide assistance. When will they get this kind of treatment?
really!
The plan I made before was so correct.
It would be the wisest choice to directly poach Master Li Wen as a whole.
Everyone wanted to dig it, but only their smart dwarves succeeded!
It wasn't until the carriage left the city that Li Wen emerged from the invisibility state, "Hurry up, hurry up! Get out of here."
"Dele!"
The dwarf driving the carriage now obeyed Li Wen's request a hundred times.
