The knight in the abyss

Chapter 36 Dwarf Party

The blacksmith's quarter is to the west of Shuangqiao Town, and the blacksmith's quarters are at the far west corner.

This building complex has typical dwarf characteristics. Half of the houses are on the surface and half underground. The bedrooms are connected by a common living room. Barend and three other companions who had 'uprising' shared a dormitory.The dwarves didn't see anything wrong with this arrangement, in fact they were very comfortable with this group life.

At this moment, Lancelot and his party were sitting on the sofa in a common room in the dormitory area, holding a glass of ale, watching a group of dwarves circle around Pluto, listening to him talk about this adventure energy.

Lancelot had never been exposed to this kind of drink with a low degree of white bubbles before, but he felt that compared with sitting politely at the table and drinking red wine in a glass, drinking this kind of drink before him The warm atmosphere of the chat was more to his taste.

"...The gorilla's fist was as big as Aunt Birya's cooking pot, and it smashed from above, but he was too high, I rolled to the side and easily dodged... …”

When Pluto stood on a table, he spit, and the people around listened with interest, and even Lancelot thought that what he said was really wonderful.

Little Isa was also attracted by this story, her pale blue eyes were wide open, as if she was watching Pluto's heroic fighting with her own eyes.

Lancelot and Karalin had a cup of tea and said with a smile:

"It would be nice if we had half of his optimism, the poor bastards who fell into the abyss."

"Dwarves are such a tough and optimistic race." Kalarin raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, "I also want to thank you, Ser Lancelot, if our personal safety can be guaranteed, the abyss will treat us research demons. It's heaven for nerds."

Lancelot took the bottle and refilled it for himself and Karalin. "It's best not to be so optimistic about safety. The abyss can always take your life in unexpected ways."

"Indeed. The more you study the abyss, the more you understand that chaos is the essence of the abyss. And according to Eminem, the gods have extracted most of the good from this chaos, so the chaos shown here is often full of malicious."

At this moment, Barende left the crowd surrounding his son and walked towards Lancelot.He raised the cup with a formal attitude and said:

"I'll give you a toast, Sir Lancelot, and thank you for taking care of Pluto."

"You're welcome." Lancelo quickly stood up, touched Barende's glass, and poured all the wine down his throat. "Pluto's performance was better than I expected, and in addition to the Dwarfs' signature strength, he was also impressive in his agility."

"This little bastard has been naughty since he was a child. He has been beaten by his mother a lot, and he has never made a mistake to stand up and accept the punishment."

"That's because my mother's strength is really too great." Brutal leaned over with a smile at this moment, and he had finished talking about his one-minute battle with the summoned Bagula.Suddenly his expression became a little gloomy again, "I miss my mother, it has been more than a year, she must think we are dead, I can't even imagine how sad she must be."

"I miss her more than you do, and I'm ashamed of the grief I've caused her. Fortunately, Uncle Werther will take good care of her." Barende embraced his son, "but I also have good news. , I found the Chamber of Commerce organization from our world in the market area, they use magic to transfer goods and money between the two worlds. I have written a letter to your mother, ask them to help to get to Rivet Fort. But the road It's a bit far, and it will take about half a year to receive it, but I will insist on writing to her every month."

"Oh that's great, woo woo..." Pluto was already sobbing at this time, "Just thinking about how she came here in the past year, I can't be sad, wow..."

Brutal couldn't help crying.The cries seemed to be contagious, and everyone thought of their sadness, and a group of dwarves began to howl.

"Woooooo, don't cry! Let people see the joke!" Barende shouted while wiping away tears, "Let's sing!"

"No matter how gorgeous palaces and gardens I walk through,"

"It's nothing like my ordinary home,"

"The sky in my hometown has a magical power,"

"Nowhere in the world can compare to its beauty!"

"Hometown, sweet hometown!"

"There's nothing like going home!"*

……

The dwarves sang sad tunes in their rough voices, and Lancelot and Caralin were so touched by it that even little Isa burst into tears.She lost everything she was familiar with at a young age, and even turned into a monster herself.

The sadness of this little girl is probably no less than theirs.

As the singing faded away, the dwarves also went back to rest one by one.Seeing that there were no outsiders anymore, Lancelot poked Pluto, it was time to get down to business.

"Uh, Dad, where did Han Tie go to find it?"

"Haven't you always been impatient to learn these things, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Pluto could only turn his eyes to Karalin for help, "Tell me."

"Many people know that sacred weapons are the best choice against demons, but few people know that cold iron is also very effective, and this weapon has no restrictions on the user, and demons can use it," explained Karalin. "Bru Tok said that your Frostforged clan are experts in cold iron processing, and he thinks this will make the succubus lord treat you differently."

"That's it." Barend nodded, squinting at Pluto, "Let me guess, this impatient young man has already told Lord Tijana and touched it because he couldn't bring out the real thing. Grey nose?"

"Dad, you really know me, hehe."

"More importantly, we want to hear your opinion on this matter." Lancelot's expression became serious, "Would it be a good idea to give this weapon to Tijana? Those who have been here for a long time What do the dwarves think of Tijana?"

"I'm also paying close attention to this matter." Barende frowned and said, "The dwarves here have very complicated feelings for Tijana. On the one hand, they hate Tijana's endless orders and oppression, and on the other hand, they hate Tijana. On the one hand they also know how precious the shelter she provides is."

"Tijana is indeed an outlier." Karalin agreed. "Among all the known towns in the abyss, Shuangqiao Town is one of the few cities that has always maintained a stable relationship with its mortal residents."

“And she also gave us some autonomy to a certain extent. Most of the affairs of the blacksmith district are handled by the Craftsman Council, chaired by an old dwarf who is over 200 years old. These early settlers of Twin Bridges seem to be very concerned about Tijana. Loyalty, knowing that a dwarf's trust is not easy to gain, let alone maintain for such a long time."

"So what do you think?"

"The processing skills of cold iron are not unique. Although Tijana is a demon, she is now our protector and has a good reputation in this regard." Barend nodded, "We provide her with some The things of value are good and harmless.”

"Great, then where are we going to find cold iron ore?"

　Thanks for the recommendation votes, bro
