When the dwarf king Orvger said that Chen Rui was a half-elf, Fatty, Ina and others looked surprised. Only Samuel disagreed: His Royal Highness Arthur is the purest Roland royal bloodline and the body of light. How could the owner be a half-elf hybrid?
However, Blackbeard Teklin's last deceptive sentence made everyone feel relieved: Yes, this appearance does not look like a half-elf.
"The hill dwarves are known for their integrity and straightforwardness. I believe that Your Highness will not wrongfully accuse innocent people and let the real thief hide in the corner and laugh."
Chen Rui's "spiritual language" that can only be heard by the target person and has no communication barriers made the dwarf king slightly surprised, but it was fleeting, and he quickly regained his composure: "Human, how can you prove that you are Innocent?"
Chen Rui continued to convey his thoughts in the Analytical Eye: "I need a special place for me to prove to His Highness and the hill dwarves alone. If I cannot prove it, I am willing to accept any treatment from the hill dwarves, even as a Punishment for thieves! If I can prove myself, please allow us to go to Garden City through Black Rock Mountain..."
"Are you sure you can prove your innocence?" When Ofger said this, he was already speaking in common language, and everyone in the Iron Shield Mercenary Group and the church could understand it.
Fatty didn't know what Chen Rui and Ofger said in the exchange. When he heard the words "prove innocence", he was the first to jump out: "I am the pastor of Gudan Town, a servant of light. Just this My identity can prove my innocence!"
Elder Askar on the side spoke: "From the moment you enter this palace today, you have only one identity, the captives of the dwarves! There is no difference between members of the Church of Light and ordinary humans to the dwarves. Maybe you can use race war To threaten, the prerequisite is that you have the weight."
The fat man suddenly fell silent. He was just a small priest of a kingdom. The Hill Clan had a wide range of interests in mankind, including the church. Once racial conflicts really escalated, the church would definitely sacrifice him. Insignificant little pawn.
Ofger ignored the fat man and just stared at Chen Rui: "Can you represent everyone? I don't have the patience and time to test your so-called 'proofs' one by one. If you fail, then you will all be regarded as thieves. …At least it’s the thieves’ accomplices who will deal with it.”
Everyone was shocked. The fat man glanced at Chen Rui and thought that he had already signed a contract. At this critical moment, this partner should not be able to harm others or himself. He gritted his teeth and said: "Richard, my friend, I choose not to do anything." Trust you unreservedly!”
Ina looked at Samuel, who deliberately pondered for a moment, nodded, and whispered: "I think he can be trusted. They are eager to go to Garden City now. If he can't prove it, he will even go in. .”
"Well." Ina was actually a little surprised. To be precise, it was an intuition belonging to the woman - Samuel seemed to have a special trust in this "Richard" and had almost conflicted with Tecklin before. It was "Richard"'s words that made Samuel calm down quickly.
Although many of the surrounding mercenaries were suspicious of "Richard", the deputy commander was right, and the commander had no objections either. There was no objection at the moment.
"Very good," Ofger nodded upon seeing this: "So, where do you want to prove it?"
Chen Rui "said" a place from the Analytical Eyes. Ofger looked surprised and finally nodded.
"Okay, let me remind you first, don't try to play any tricks, otherwise don't blame me for not giving you a chance...the only chance." The dwarf king immediately ordered: "Elder Askar, come with me to take a look at this
What humans call proof. Teklin, Borot. You stay to greet the guests and give them certain courtesy. If the proof cannot satisfy me, then this 'courtesy' will become the treatment of a prisoner."
Teklin and Boruote lowered their heads to accept the order. Ofger glanced at Chen Rui, then turned and walked out of the hall with Aska. Chen Rui nodded to Fatty and others and followed.
The three of them walked all the way and came to a huge building.
The name of this huge building is "House of Iron Trees and Sparks". It is said to be a "house", but in fact, neither "hall" nor "hall" can describe its huge scale.
In his last life, Chen Rui was an otaku who lived for more than 20 years. He learned about the entire world through the Internet. After traveling and being reborn, he traveled around the demon world for three years and gained rich experience. However, when he entered this building, he was still shocked by the sight before him.
.
The "huge" building outside is actually just the "head" part of this "house" that is exposed above the ground. The real "body" is underground.
Looking from top to bottom, there are layers upon layers, at least hundreds of meters high. The entire underground seems brightly lit. Although it is close to dawn outside, you can still see busy dwarves on one level, and from time to time there are clanging knocks.
Knocking sounds and various sounds similar to the rotation of large machinery.
Here is the real "House of Iron Tree Sparks", the smelting and forging center of the hill dwarves, an underground world.
Chen Rui has never seen such a large-scale forging site. Such a majestic scene may not be able to be created even in fantasy movies, but all of this is really happening before his eyes.
Listening to the endless "ding-ding" tapping sound, feeling the strong visual impact, a special impulse suddenly surged out of my heart, and the blood in my body seemed to boil, even though Chen Rui's current strength was equivalent to the peak of the Demon Emperor.
, it is difficult to suppress this strong emotion that is about to burst out of the body.
The dwarves who had been forging all night turned a blind eye to Ofger's arrival and did not salute, but continued to focus on forging. The dwarf king was also used to it. From this detail, we can see the emotion and attitude of the hill dwarves towards forging.
Ofger stopped and turned to Chen Rui and said coldly: "The forge house was not one of the places that was set on fire yesterday. Human being, I would like to see what proof you can give me in a place like this."
look!"
Chen Rui ignored Ofger, glanced around, and finally stopped in front of a forging platform in the distance. He took a deep breath and walked slowly over.
At first, his steps seemed a little cautious, but soon after, he gradually became relaxed. With every step he took, his aura changed. When he walked to the forging table, whether it was Ovger or Askar,
There is an illusion that humans have integrated into this special world that only belongs to dwarves.
Chen Rui looked at the facilities around the forging platform, slowly stroked it, and adjusted the positions of some things. Then, he picked up the big hammer that could only be held by a dwarf with both hands and made something.
Strange thing: Throwing the hammer high, catching it, then throwing it up again, and so on.
While throwing and catching the hammer, the fire in the furnace started to burn with a roar, and a piece of silver iron ore that had been prepared began to heat up. Chen Rui's hand was facing the flame from a distance, as if his hand was warming due to the cold.
"Pretending!" Ofger frowned and was about to step forward when suddenly a hand stopped him. It was Askar, the respected elder of the hill dwarves, a senior forging master, and his first teacher.
"Look, my king." Looking at the simple action of human beings throwing and catching hammers, the eyes of the white-bearded dwarf flashed with an extremely dignified light.
From the pace of human beings walking towards the forging platform, the senior forging master with white beard sensed something strange. Everything human beings do is to become familiar with this strange environment and relatively unfamiliar tools, and place those tools where they are most familiar.
accustomed position.
Aska can clearly feel that every time the hammer is thrown, the atmosphere and fluctuations of the surrounding environment undergo subtle changes. This human being has not only integrated with the underground world, but also used a special power to
, or should be called "artistic conception", affecting and affecting the entire underground world.
This time, the falling hammer was finally held tightly, and instead of being thrown up again, it was raised high and struck on the piece of shining silver iron ore that was clamped to the table. The already red iron ore splashed out.
The brilliant sparks make a crisp sound.
Hammer after hammer, with a strange rhythm, the simple sound of striking iron seems to be able to touch the soul.
The dinging and knocking around them gradually stopped, and the sound of machinery was also stopped. Even the arrival of the monarch did not stop the forging. The dwarves put down their concentration and slowly gathered around, all their eyes focused on this station.
On the dwarf forging platform, humans were striking the ore with dwarf tools.
These dwarf blacksmiths, who were extremely skilled in craftsmanship and some were even masters, held their breaths in unison, their eyes shining. Master Aska, in particular, stared at Chen Rui's every move, fearing to miss any detail.
At this time, Chen Rui had forgotten everything, the original plan in his heart, and the so-called proof of innocence, but he had completely integrated himself into the wonderful throbbing when entering this underground world.
This is a kind of throbbing that purely belongs to the blacksmith. It can be said that it is driven by the special atmosphere of this underground world. It can also be said that it has always existed in Chen Rui's heart, but it just burst out at the right time.
In an instant, Chen Rui's mind showed the figure of his teacher Tennis swinging a hammer, and then the Minotaur leader, Master Anderson... The movements in his hands also changed with his thoughts, from surging and intense to wide open and close.
Then it became as fine as rain, and for a moment it seemed to be mixed and confused in contradictions.
During the repeated tapping, these insights gradually overlapped, and continued to merge and change in the grinding and tempering, just like the shining silver iron ore that was constantly being refined to remove the waste and retain the essence. The firmness and confidence in Chen Rui's eyes became more and more intense.
The feeling became stronger and stronger, and the movements began to enter a rhythm that was like flowing clouds and flowing water, not stuck in objects. This was not the Minotaur, Turthnis, or other masters, but Chen Rui's own feeling.
Just like what he once said to Samuel: Understand your own path.
Ofger is most proficient in fighting rather than forging. After all, he is a tribe of hill dwarves with the "blood" of forging; although the "proof" of humans is not complete, the king of the dwarves has already understood. ^-^^-^
