The knight in the abyss

Chapter 13 Pluto's Career

Lancelot and Pluto plunged headlong into the sand when the sandstorm was only beginning to get smaller.

Strictly speaking, originally these sands would turn into sandworm excrement within a few days, but who let there be treasures in them, don't care about them at this time.

It is not too much to describe the current state of the two of them with the dung sea maggots. Lancelo, relying on his perception of the aura, is accurate.Pluto, relying on the dwarves' natural induction (or fanaticism?) to gemstones, digs frantically in the sand, and he successfully finds a lot.

Lancelo grabbed a mountain crystal, and when his mind moved, the spiritual energy contained in the crystal was inhaled into his body, allowing him to quickly recover the infuriating energy that he had consumed because of the battle just now.

Absorbing the spiritual energy in the spar can restore his strength, but it cannot exceed his original limit. If you want to improve the level of cultivation, you must rely on down-to-earth cultivation.However, Lancelo was very excited to confirm that these mountain crystals could be used as spirit stones, which made many operations that require spirit stones feasible.

After they had thoroughly sifted the dunes, the two of them wearily gathered together to count the spoils.

Lancelot found a large number of spar crystals called mountain crystals by Pluto. These spar stones exude a rich spiritual energy, making it difficult for cultivators who are very sensitive to miss them.

Pluto harvested various gems and concentrates.Sandworms are never picky when it comes to feeding, and they sometimes even eat entire veins.Those raw ores are equivalent to being refined once in its stomach, and in the end there is only a small amount of indigestible concentrate, which is a very precious metallurgical material.

The young dwarf looked at the treasures all over the ground with eager eyes, and pushed them towards Lancelot with great pain but firmness, and said:

"These are your spoils, Lancelot, they don't belong to me. You killed the big bug and saved me. Without you, I'm afraid I'd be with these gems now-- in the belly of a sandworm."

Lancelot smiled and patted Pluto:

"Those mountain crystals are indeed useful to me, but if it weren't for you, I might have missed them. Well, you choose three of these gems that you like best as your reward for finding the treasure."

"I think the same is enough to deserve my credit." Pluto picked up one of the largest and most beautiful rubies with a serious face.

"Are you sure? No more?" Lancelot asked politely.

"Lancelot! Are you a devil! It's hard to resist temptation!" Pluto roared angrily.

"Uh, you were scared too much today, so just treat it as a mental loss from your eldest brother."

"It makes sense." Pluto's face slammed, and he quickly grabbed another lump of iron ore concentrate. "This thing is of no use to you. We dwarves are satisfied as long as we can process this precious material. If you want a new weapon or armor, just ask."

"Haha, I'm just waiting for your smithy to open, and I'm waiting for the equipment to be updated."

"Lancelot, I have something to discuss with you." Pluto stopped in a bit of a twisted language.

"What's the matter? Do you want to get a few more?"

"No. Is it really possible? No no... What I want to say is, that, can you let me go on an adventure with you in the future?" Pluto's face flushed slightly.

"Why do you think so? You have seen the situation today. I am afraid that similar things will be commonplace to be an adventurer." Lancelot didn't want to overwhelm Pluto's enthusiasm, but just reminded kindly.

"There are two aspects. One is that I may never be as good a blacksmith as my old man. I don't have that talent. You may not understand it very well, but knowing this fact does make me lose motivation." Pluto spread his hands. said. "In that fight for freedom, I found that I preferred to wield weapons rather than forge them, and it seems that I do have a talent for that. Not to mention in the abyss, which is probably where we found our way out of here. The only hope."

"Sounds reasonable." Lancelot nodded. "What's the other reason for that?"

Brutal laughed and pointed to Lancelot:

"Because of you."

"Me?" Lancelot asked suspiciously, touching his nose.

"What is the most important thing in the adventure? Of course, a trusted partner." Pluto asked himself.

"Wow." Lancelot was a little moved and asked, "Do you want to say, am I a partner you can trust?"

"We dwarves are a race that is hard to trust. The old man used to say that when you really consider a human as a friend, he is probably old and dying." Pluto's expression became serious and sincere, "But you managed to win my trust in just three days. You saved me twice, twice, and you gave me my life, so I am willing to keep my back unreserved from now on. I leave it to you, are you willing to accept my trust?"

Lancelot was so moved that he blurted out:

"I am willing!"

As these three words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became very strange, and both of them were silent.

"I mean, we'll be an adventure team from now on." Lancelot spoke first, trying to break the embarrassing silence.

"Of course, of course, hahahaha." Pluto seemed to let out a breath.

"Well, then let's pack up and go. Your fathers are afraid they'll be in a hurry."

Their skis had all been destroyed in the previous battle, but they were not far from their target.Lancelot cast the summoning warhorse, pushed Pluto up first, and then got on his horse himself and rode to the original destination of this crazy mountain downhill.

After riding for about half an hour, they met Barende and his group who were anxiously waiting there.On the way, Lancelot had reached an agreement with Pluto not to reveal all their victories. Even if the dwarves did not have any malicious intentions, inadvertently revealing a little bit of news was enough to cause unmanageable trouble.

The final explanation was that they were chased off course by a sandworm and broke their skis, which was the reason for the delay.

Barende was still a little puzzled. All of them heard the earth-shattering scream just now, which came from the direction that Pluto and Lancelot came from.But seeing that his son was safe and sound, he was too lazy to pursue these matters.

After the group converged, they continued to move towards Shuangqiao Town. Finally, before the blood-red sun was about to completely disappear from the horizon, they reached one of the two arch bridges spanning the Styx River, the entrance of Shuangqiao Town. .

The back of a human figure with huge bat wings was explaining something to the two mad war demons guarding the bridge. When she heard someone approaching, she turned around.

Lancelot felt as if his heart had missed a beat.

This is a humanoid female demon with astonishing beauty.She was wearing a leather coat with almost no cover, and her proud figure seemed to want to break free from the shackles of her clothes. Two vertical long horns protruded from the black hair above her head, and a pair of huge bat wings grew on her back, and A tail with an arrow.

This is a succubus, it is said that they were born directly from the fantasy and desire of mortals for beauty and sex, and countless facts also prove that they are the best spokesperson for the word debauchery.

The succubus showed a charming smile to everyone and said hello:

"Good evening gentlemen, my name is Tijana, and welcome to my town. Are you here for business or for fun?"
