As always, the dilapidated blacksmith shop was lifeless, with a few tinkling sounds like metal being heard from time to time! It seemed to announce that this was a blacksmith shop.
"Hey! Old man! I'm here to see you!" Lingfeng looked at the dilapidated blacksmith shop, walked in alone, and shouted into the darkly lit interior of the blacksmith shop.
"Who is it! Yelling and yelling in my shop!" As before, Ling Feng smelled of alcohol and was still wearing the same clothes that Ling Feng saw a few days ago. He was holding a bottle of low-quality wheat wine in his hand and using his right hand hard.
He rubbed his sleepy eyes and said with an unhappy look on his face.
"Old man! I've brought you some wine!" Ling Feng seemed to have gotten used to the sloppy blacksmith in front of him, and smiled at him with a normal expression.
"Sniff!"
"This is the smell of the fine daughter's wine you brought me before!" The old man, who was originally drunk, suddenly saw his sleepy eyes flashing, and he waved his hand gently, exchanging words with the previous one.
The situation was the same, the two bottles of high-quality daughter's red in Ling Feng's hand disappeared again, and appeared out of thin air in the old man's hand.
"Pengpeng! You deserve to be called the first-class daughter red. Compared with my low-quality wheat wine, it is like that fine wine! If you hadn't brought me wine today! My old man would still drink those low-quality wheat wines.
Got it!" The old man said with a satisfied look on his face after taking a big sip of his daughter's red wine.
"I'll bring a few bottles of good wine to see you when I have time!" Ling Feng couldn't help but feel touched when he saw the old man alone, and said to the satisfied old man.
"I bet you are serious! Don't forget to help you upgrade your equipment before!" After hearing Ling Feng's words, the old man said with a smile. After saying that, he drank the high-quality Daughter's Red that Ling Feng brought.
Already.
"By the way, old man, your forging skills seem to be very high even for me, a layman. Why do you seem to not want to help others forge equipment?" Ling Feng asked a question that had been in his mind for a long time!
If I hadn't been frightened by the old man's sky-high asking price that day, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known that there would be a master with extremely high blacksmithing skills living in this dilapidated blacksmith shop.
"Haha! What's the use of blacksmithing skills in high places? Even if you refine it into a god-level blacksmithing skill, you can't get back what you have lost?" The old man took a sip of the daughter's red in his hand, a trace of compassion flashed in his eyes, and he said in a sad tone.
.
"Can you tell me what happened before? It's better for two people to bear it than for one person to bear it!"
Looking at the old man with eyes full of compassion, Ling Feng suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and the urge to know what the old man had experienced suddenly became stronger.
"Haha! Little guy, do you know the nine dark monarchs of the Creation Continent?" Looking at the childish Ling Feng in front of him, the old man suddenly asked, smelling of alcohol.
"This question is basically known to everyone in this Creation Continent! Ranked first is the Void Blade? Otan, and then is the second-ranked Dark Walker? Mingxue...
"
"Then there's the Dark Knight, Karen, who's ranked sixth...and finally there's the Skeleton King, Green, who's ranked ninth."
A trace of doubt flashed in Ling Feng's eyes, but he still answered the old man's question and said the names of the nine dark monarchs in the Creation Continent, from highest to lowest.
"Dark Knight? Karen...?" When Lingfeng mentioned the sixth-ranked Dark Knight? Karen, the expression on the old man's face suddenly turned aside, and then returned to normal, and said to himself in a dreamy tone.
It seems to be talking to oneself, but also seems to be asking.
"Old man, have you ever met Karen, the Dark Knight, one of the nine dark monarchs?" Listening to the name coming out of the old man's mouth, Ling Feng showed a hint of surprise on his face.
"More than just meeting each other, it should be said that they are enemies with a blood feud!" the old man said with murderous intent on his face.
Seeing the old man with a face full of hatred and murderous intent, Ling Feng found it hard to imagine that the old man, who was always drunk, would have such a huge hatred for the legendary Dark Lord.
"Little guy, are you wondering why I, a little blacksmith in the main city of Sunshine, would be related to the legendary Dark Lord?" The old man returned to his normal state and looked at the somewhat confused Ling Feng.
"Yeah!" Ling Feng nodded, acquiescing to his words,
"This matter must be recalled 60 years ago..." The old man narrated and fell into the memories of the past.
"That's me. I am a royal forger named: Guangfeng Duchy in the eastern region of the Creation Continent. I specialize in forging special weapons and equipment for the royal family. I was only in my early twenties, but I have already become the royal blacksmith. Countless
Under the halo, I fell in love with the princess of that country."
Speaking of this, the old man showed a rare happy smile on his face.
"However, just when I was about to marry the princess, disaster suddenly and without any warning came to our country." The old man's tone suddenly changed, and he said with hatred on his face:
"The Dark Knight Karen, one of the nine legendary dark monarchs in the Creation Continent, suddenly descended on our country and used god-like power to turn the entire Gale Imperial City into ruins in the blink of an eye. At that time, he was an immortal.
As a level blacksmith, I became unable to move under his divine domain. I could only watch helplessly as his beloved turned into ruins along with the Stormy Wind Imperial City.
But after that, I was seriously injured, and my strength went from Immortal level to Gold level. I barely survived, but I came to this main city of Sunshine without knowing it, and waited for death here.
He lived in a blacksmith shop for sixty years."
Speaking of this, the old man burst into tears before he knew it. It can be seen that the trauma in his heart left sixty years ago cannot be healed even now.
"Dark Knight? Karen, why did he suddenly attack the Principality of Guangfeng? There should be some reason for him to attack! As far as I know, under normal circumstances, the Dark Lord cannot freely appear in the Creation Continent!"
"Want to know why the Dark Knight, Karen, would attack the Principality of Stormwind?" the old man said with even more compassion in his eyes.
"Um!"
"When you come in, you will know the reason!" When the old man saw Ling Feng wanting to know the reason, he got up and walked towards the innermost room of the blacksmith shop.
.........
After Ling Feng and the others entered the room, the old man took out a simple flat mirror from a box, handed it to Ling Feng and said:
"He is the reason why the Dark Knight Karen, who is the Dark Lord, goes to great lengths to destroy the Principality of Stormwind.
Ling Feng, who took the simple-looking mirror from the old man's hand, clearly felt the old man's trembling hands. It can be seen that at this moment, the old man's heart does not want to be so calm on the surface.
"Ding!" The system prompts: Congratulations on getting: Kun Bronze Mirror (artifact) is broken and cannot be used! Level: 1 Function: Randomly transfer to the area of Creation Continent, or transfer to an existing transfer point (Note: Totally possible
