Stonehelm City, one of the four main cities of the dwarves, sits on the most extensive and fertile grassland in the Flint Basin. Therefore, it has naturally become the granary of the dwarves and the best choice for hoarding heavy weapons.
But it is precisely because of this that only dwarves are allowed in and out of Stonehelm City. As for those merchants who come to trade, they need to find a dwarf agent in advance.
"Have you counted the quantities clearly? Don't wait until we get to Black Crystal Castle before telling me there are any problems."
"If I get scolded by Big Brother again this time, I will punish you not to drink alcohol for two months!"
Pablo, the lord of Stonehelm City, is a swordsman. This man is the brother of the dwarf king Balder, so he is in charge of Stonehelm City.
Although Pablo is not very powerful, he is more calm and mature. Therefore, under his many years of management, Stonehelm City has always been peaceful, and grain output has increased year after year.
"Sir, my subordinates have checked it five times. There should be no problem."
"The grains traded with the orcs have also been packed into boxes. We only need to wait for the other party to meet us at Black Crystal Castle to complete the transaction."
The personal guard smiled, shook the list in his hand, and whispered back. He had been following Pablo for more than twenty years, so he was naturally familiar with these things. And when he thought about it, the distance between Stonehelm City and Sombra Castle was less than a few hundred miles.
, even if it’s really wrong, it’s just a waste of two days to make another trip.
"Those orcs are still the same as before, but that's fine. We will plant grains with all our strength, and they will graze with peace of mind. This is also a bond that has maintained each other for countless years, and it is a symbol of friendship between the two races."
"Also, the price of orc spices has increased several times in recent years. If it were me, I wouldn't grow any grains. Wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?"
Pablo put the list in his storage bag, and then signaled his personal guards to set off for Sombra Castle immediately. More than twenty giant carriages slowly left Stonehelm City and began to move northeast. At the same time, Bublo
The four of them finally walked out of Crescent Canyon.
"Shield man, please don't get into trouble this time, otherwise you will no longer be able to walk with us." Rikka reached out and patted Perseus' arm muscles and said immediately.
"Follow your orders! I won't make the same mistake again, please rest assured, Master." Perseus still wore the silver-gray armor, and Rikka finally compromised and transformed the black robe into a cloak.
Boom nodded after hearing this, and then took the lead to walk towards the gate of Stonehelm City. However, Boom was finally stopped by the dwarf city guard, who looked like an idiot.
"Non-dwarves are not allowed to enter Stonehelm City. How come you don't even understand this rule and have no etiquette at all." After the dwarf city guard said this, he glanced at the four Boom people with great disdain.
Although the rules of Stonehelm City are somewhat unkind, they have existed for nearly a hundred years. In these nearly a hundred years, Stonehelm City has never allowed any foreign race to enter, not even the orcs with whom it has good relations. There is no other reason. Stonehelm City stores 80% of the food grains of the entire dwarves, and these things are important materials for maintaining the clan, and they are also raw materials for making ale.
"Hey, hey, don't you know it's weird for the first time here? Did you eat shit? Your mouth is so smelly!" Rikka pointed at the dwarf castle guard and yelled angrily.
This is the first time that the little girl has been stopped outside the city gate. Don't say she has offended anyone, she has never been here at all. That's why she is so angry and has no mercy in her words.
"Where did the thugs come from, leave immediately, otherwise..." The dwarf city guard was furious when he heard this, and saw wisps of fighting spirit rays coming out of his body, and his whole person instantly became domineering.
He has been staying here for more than 20 years. He has seen first-time travelers, overly curious aliens, and spies with malicious intentions. But he has never seen someone as arrogant as Rikka.
Little girl, and what the other party said was really unpleasant, so he planned to teach the other party a lesson.
But before the dwarf city guard could say harsh words, Christine on the side interrupted him with words. And it was only at this moment that the dwarf city guard moved his eyes to Christine's face. Because when he thought about it,
The most powerful among Boom and his party should be the burly man, or the sullen young man.
As for Rikka and Christine, in his opinion, they are just family members. So the dwarf castle guard is a little surprised now, but he is more curious about the identity of the other party.
"Otherwise, what? Stonehelm City has its own rules, which is understandable, but when you treat visitors like this, isn't it a bit too bullying?"
"No manners? You actually said that I have no manners? What a boring joke. Are all dwarves as stupid as you?"
"Originally, I longed for a trip to the Flint Basin, but now it seems that it's just that. Today I want to step into Stone Helm City. If you have the strength to stop me, just take action!"
After Christine said that, a breath of great magician spread out instantly, and more and more dark magic power accumulated in the air. It was not until this moment that the dwarf city guard realized that he had stung a hornet's nest today.
Boom sighed, then walked to Christine and gently pulled her robe. In Boom's eyes, Christine was very wise and extremely calm most of the time. But if she touched
If her bottom line is touched, for example, if the other party today calls her rude or endangers the female contract beast, Christine will appear aggressive and stubborn like a bull.
"Let's go, this kind of fighting is meaningless." Boom whispered, and then signaled Rikka to watch her mouth and stop irritating the other party.
After hearing this, Christine's aura was restrained, and she instantly changed into her calm and calm look. The group of people turned around and left. They no longer planned to go to Stonehelm City, but went straight to the Black Crystal Castle, the royal city of the dwarves.
.
"So beautiful, that figure, that face, tsk tsk tsk!"
"No matter how beautiful you are, you have to live with your own life. Great Magister, she is truly the pinnacle of power."
"I don't know which principality it is from. The golden petal pattern seems to be no one's family emblem looks like this."
After Boom and his party disappeared, the merchants outside the gate of Stonehelm City naturally started talking a lot, constantly guessing about the true identity of Boom and his party. However, two groups of people seemed very calm. One was the dark elves from the Whispering Forest.
caravan, and the second is the frozen continent caravan.
"I'm so angry! You're so bullying! Shield man, stay close to me. You've been sluggish all day and haven't had enough to eat!"
Boom stopped Christine from taking action. He didn't want to cause trouble, let alone because of something like this. But Rikka was so angry with him that she was taking out her anger on the beasts at the moment.
With one punch and one kick, Rikka only cared about killing and venting his annoyance, while Perseus followed silently, constantly collecting the bodies of beasts that were still intact.
"Have you played enough? When you have played enough, sit down and rest." Boom said while wiping off the stains on Rikka's face.
"Hmph! What's so great, people still don't want to go to that shit Stone Helm City!"
"Shield man, go get some more firewood and come back. It looks like we're going to spend the night here tonight."
Rikka rolled her eyes when she heard this, and then her mood quickly calmed down. The little girl was just angry at the other person's attitude. As for whether to go to Stone Helm City or not, she actually didn't care.
And those rules are not just for Boom and his party, but for all foreign races. Although it is somewhat unreasonable to do so, it is also a matter of the dwarves, and there is no need for outsiders to tell them what to do.
