After listening to Qi Yue's words, Ling Chen did not respond. After a short pause, he continued to walk forward. Combined with what the mountain giant said before, he could basically determine what the "tribe" he was about to face was. However, no matter from what point of view,
In any aspect, this kind of encounter is really amazing. Not long ago, he accidentally found the elves who took the initiative to hide from the world. Now, he stepped into the hiding place of this race that was forced to hide... This
Everything is too mysterious. They have been hidden for thousands of years and have not been found for ten thousand years, but I have found them one after another in a short period of time.
Ling Chen continued to move forward. After a few dozen steps, another stone room of the same size appeared in front of him. Different from the previous one, this stone room was very quiet. There were more than a dozen square stone tables and the same number of stone stones placed inside.
When Ling Chen stepped into the stool, a figure came right in front of him.
This is indeed a person, at least with all the characteristics of a human being that Ling Chen knows. It's just that his stature is too short, only a little over one meter tall, with a thin body and messy hair. Compared to his short body, his head seems a bit big.
His skin was dark, and he was wearing clothes that were so tattered that they could hardly cover his body. His feet were bare on the ground, and his body gave off a vague smell of something burning.
Ling Chen and this short man almost collided head-on. The two of them stood face to face with stunned expressions. After three seconds of staring into each other's eyes, the short man jumped back as if he had been pricked by a needle.
, shouted in panic: "You, you, you... who are you! How did you get in! Come on! Someone from a foreign tribe has come in!"
Although this man was thin and short, his voice was quite loud. This panicked roar was like poking a hornet's nest. The originally quiet stone room suddenly became chaotic, and more than a dozen people who were also thin and short rushed out.
Standing not far in front of Ling Chen, they looked at Ling Chen with a shocked face, as if they were looking at a monster that suddenly fell from the sky... This is also the case. They have sealed themselves, and have not seen any other living beings since they were born.
.The appearance of Ling Chen is equivalent to the concept of aliens to them.
Looking at the dozen or so people in front of me who were no more than 1.2 meters tall, dark and small, but extremely strong, I no longer had any doubts in my heart.
"That's right! It's indeed a dwarf! This is really a huge surprise." Qi Yue shouted out the answer that Ling Chen had already confirmed in her heart, but immediately, she wondered to herself again: "It's strange, although the dwarf is short,
, but they are not thin, on the contrary, they are obviously very strong. Why are these dwarves as thin as monkeys?"
The dwarves, a race that Ling Chen heard about in the legends, are intelligent, arrogant, kind, and hard-working. They are natural engineers, especially in forging, and their talents are unmatched. But it is also because of their wisdom and
Talent, they suffered countless disasters... In the long-ago era, wars broke out in Shenyue Continent, and equipment was undoubtedly a very important factor in determining the success or failure of the victory. A large number of dwarves were captured and imprisoned, forcing them to forge the best for them.
Weapons... This includes humans. Because dwarves have no talent for fighting, they also have no ability to resist in front of humans. The greed and ugliness of human temperament were nakedly displayed in front of the original dwarves...
In the end, the dwarves chose to hide and went to a place where they would not be found by any other race. A large part of the reason for their hiding was from humans. And with their hiding, over the years, the Forgotten Continent, and the
No one can forge a divine weapon, and even the heavenly weapons that have been born are as rare as a phoenix.
"Hello, friends from the dwarf tribe." Ling Chen greeted them naturally. It seemed that all he could do now was say hello casually.
For Ling Chen, meeting the dwarves was a surprise, but for the dwarves, meeting Ling Chen was a real fright. Because before today, this place had never been entered by outsiders.
"He...is a human being!" A dwarf pointed at Ling Chen and shouted in surprise.
There was a look of deep panic on the faces of the dwarves. The people in their sight were indeed exactly the same as the humans in the records. Also in the records, most of the humans were greedy and ugly. They once wanted to enslave the entire world.
Dwarves. Now, a human breaks into this place, which means that the dwarves’ long-term residence has been discovered! What may greet them will be the most terrifying disaster! The dwarves will never have peace again.
"Humans...Humans have found us!" A dwarf shouted in panic.
"Quick! Go and inform the clan leader!" The dwarves picked up long iron rods one after another, with panic and vigilance written on their faces. Obviously, they are not good at fighting, and they don't seem to have fought before. Their postures
, it was completely a subconscious behavior when facing Ling Chen.
Ling Chen stood there without taking any action or moving forward. The reaction of the dwarves was as expected. A foreigner actually entered the closed residence that had been stable for more than ten thousand years. It was normal for a chaos to arise. Just then
When he was thinking about how to stabilize the emotions of these dwarves, a thick voice sounded: "Don't panic, everyone, he is a guest sent to us by our patron saint."
When this voice sounded, the turbulent dwarves suddenly became quiet. The crowd separated, and an old dwarf with gray hair and beard wearing a black robe, holding a cane, walked away surrounded by a large group of dwarves. As he moved forward, he kept
He looked at Ling Chen, but did not show any panic like the other dwarves. The dwarves all moved out of the way and stood aside respectfully.
The old dwarf stopped only five steps in front of Ling Chen and said seriously: "Hello, guest from the outside world. I am the current leader of the dwarf clan, Dilo. Although you broke in by yourself, you are still welcome.
to here."
Although the leader of the Elf Tribe is pale, his eyes are not cloudy at all, and his eyes are full of wisdom. Ling Chen nodded and politely replied: "Hello, Chief Diluo, my name is Ling Tian, I'm sorry to disturb your peace."
"You are the first guest of our dwarves in thousands of years. But you are a guest approved by the patron saint. I believe you will not be a bad person." Dillo said calmly.
The patron saint in his mouth should belong to the mountain giant. Originally, the dwarves knew about the existence of the mountain giant. Just now, the mountain giant should have told the dwarf clan leader about himself through some method. Thinking of this, Ling Chen had a serious look on his face.
He said: "Dwarf friends, please rest assured that I don't have any ill intentions in coming here. Unless I get your consent, I will not tell anyone about this place."
After hearing that Ling Chen was a person approved by the "Guardian God", the nervous dwarves all relaxed. It was obvious that they had a deep trust in the mountain giant.
"So, human friend, what is your purpose here?" Dillo asked.
"I'm looking for something." Ling Chen answered simply.
"Looking for something?" Chief Diluo frowned: "What is the thing you want to find?"
Ling Chen thought for a while and said, "It's a bead-shaped thing. I can't describe its name, but it's basically certain that it's in a certain palace in your clan. Just let me in and I'll find it right away."
"
"I'm sorry, you are a guest from the outside world. I have to reject your request." After hearing what Ling Chen said, Chief Diluo immediately shook his head: "The palace is the most sacred place for our dwarves. Our ancestors warned us,
Unless they are the closest friends, foreigners must not be allowed to enter. Moreover, the things placed in the palace are our clan's most precious works or collections, and even members of our clan cannot take them away at will."
Ling Chen: "..."
Ling Chen was just about to finish what he was saying when Qi Yue suddenly said: "Hehe, little master, don't be anxious yet. Let me tell you some secrets of the dwarves first."
"The secret of the dwarves? What secret?"
"My little master, do you know... what are the two major hobbies of the dwarves?"
"..."
"One is forging. Each of their dwarves has been madly pursuing high-level forging throughout their lives. They have such abilities and talents, but they often lack the high-level materials that can complete high-level forging. If there are super-high-level forging materials
In front of them, they will even be excited to the point of madness, and will be willing to give up all principles and persistence. If they can obtain ultra-high-grade materials and perform ultra-high-level forging, they will enjoy the whole process continuously.
It’s a pleasure.”
Ling Chen: "..."
After listening to Qi Yue's words, Ling Chen knew what he was hinting at... high-level materials. He didn't know if the materials he found through Xiao Hui were considered high-level.
"Ahem," Ling Chen straightened his expression and said calmly and sincerely: "Chief Diluo, please rest assured that I will not forcefully do anything that makes you unhappy. Naturally, I brought enough with me when I came this time.
Sincerely, I hope to become your dwarves' closest friend."
While speaking, Ling Chen rummaged through his backpack for a while, took out two bright and colorful stones and held them in his hands.
The texture of the two stones was magnificent and crystal clear, yet they vaguely emitted seven-colored light. The first second Ling Chen took out the two stones, all the dwarves' eyes were focused on them, and they could no longer move away.
open.
"This luster, this feeling... this is... that's right! This is seven-color agate! Only one piece of seven-color agate can appear in every 300,000 agate stones! With this kind of agate stone, you can cast and carve the most beautiful agate in the world.
Gorgeous decoration!" A dwarf stared at the seven-color agate stone in Ling Chen's hand, his gaze almost burning with enthusiasm, and his voice trembled with excitement.
This sound woke up all the dwarves instantly. Immediately, a large number of dwarves seemed to be attracted by a magnet. They rushed in front of Ling Chen, their eyes fixed on the agate stone in Ling Chen's hand. Some dwarves even drooled.
When he came down, even the chief of the Derro clan twitched his face and his eyes glowed with heat.
Are you so excited about just a piece of seven-color agate? Ling Chen curled his lips. Among the various strange stones that Xiao Hui found, the seven-color agate seemed to be the most useless. Ling Chen turned his hand around, put away the seven-color agate, and took it out.
The phantom stone that had allowed him to escape from the sky of the Moon Prison in the first place.
Wow!!
The moment the Void Fantasy Stone appeared, it was like a thunder struck, and the dwarves exploded. These dwarves, who have extremely high forging talents, desire, and know all kinds of strange stones in the world, recognized Ling Chen at a glance and took out
What is.
"Oh my god!! The Void Fantasy Stone!! That's the Void Fantasy Stone!!"
"This mysterious space atmosphere, this smell that makes people want to go completely crazy... That's right! That must be the fantasy stone that I only dared to dream about! I actually saw the real fantasy stone!"
Facing the Void Fantasy Stone, the dwarves were all as excited as a group of children, hugging their bodies desperately, trying to get closer to the Void Fantasy Stone.
The Void Fantasy Stone only appeared in Ling Chen's hand for a few seconds before he took it back. He turned his wrist again, and the Red Sun Black Gold was held in his hand. A faint golden brilliance reflected in the eyes of every dwarf.
.
At that moment, it was as if the whole world had froze. Every dwarf's eyes were widened to the point where they were about to burst out. The muscles on their faces were twitching violently, and their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief... and
Madness that could spiral out of control at any time.
"Chi...Chi...Chiyang...Xuanjin!!"
The trembling voice came from Chief Dilo. His lips were trembling, and his voice was so trembling that it was difficult to hear clearly.
This sentence woke up all the stunned dwarves, and the situation got out of control in an instant...
A dwarf rushed in front of Ling Chen at a speed that exceeded his lifetime limit. Before he could catch up, he knelt there directly. Before he could stand up, he hugged Ling Chen's thigh and cried loudly: "Chiyang Xuanjin
! Chiyang Xuanjin!! Please give me this Chiyang Xuanjin for forging... I will agree to whatever you ask for, you can ask me to make you a cow or a horse..."
"No! Human friends, give it to me...Give it to me! I have the strongest forging ability here...As long as you are willing to hand over the Red Sun Black Gold to me, I will use it to forge any equipment you want for free.
, all other materials will be provided by me... Believe me, you must choose me..."
"...As long as you are willing to hand it over to me for forging, I will be your personal blacksmith from now on. I will do whatever you want me to do..."
"Get out of the way, get out of the way...ah! Friend of mankind, my admiration for you is like an endless river. As long as you are willing to give me that piece of red sun black gold to forge... you will be my biological father from now on.
~~~~"
………………
Ling Chen: "!@#￥%..."
Facing Chiyang Xuanjin, these dwarves went crazy all of a sudden. Everyone's eyes were shining brightly, staring at him fiercely, as if they wanted to swallow him in one gulp. These dwarves were very interested in advanced forging materials.
His crazy desire completely exceeded his expectations.
"Shut up! Shut up all of you! What a shame for you! Are you embarrassed?" Chief Dilo roared. After he roared five times in a row, the crazy dwarves finally calmed down, but their eyes remained still.
Staring at the Red Sun Black Gold in Ling Chen's hand, he did not move away for a moment.
After yelling, the leader of the Diluo tribe stepped in front of Ling Chen and looked at him with a stern gaze that made Ling Chen's whole body go crazy: "Friend! A friend of mankind! You are indeed the closest friend of our dwarves.
Ah, as long as you want, you can enter our palace at any time...Ah, no, no, no, I will take you there myself."
Ling Chen: "..."
[Unknowingly, it’s half past seven. Well, I only managed four chapters in an all-nighter, which is a bit of a failure. I wash my hands, eat something, and it’s time to go to work. Amitabha...]
[Thank you to everyone who stayed with me all night, hehe!]
