I can't be an NPC

Chapter 172 Demon Heart Mine

Li Wen is also called Bobby, and Bobby is also called Li Wen.

The dwarves knew it.

And those Chosen Ones who finally abducted to the dwarf territory were reincarnated as dwarves, and originally thought they could stay in their territory happily to provide them with soul energy.

And because it was snatched from humans, it also gave them the thrill of being in front of a tauren.

But I didn't expect... the Chosen Ones, who just got it for a few days, ruthlessly abandoned the dwarf's wine and hammer, shouting in their mouths, and ran away clean for Lord Bobby's glory.

What is this called?
Tauren eventually be tauren?

The grumpy emissary of the dwarves pinched Li Wen's collar on tiptoe.

"You give me back the tauren!"

"Ok?"

"No! You return my Chosen Son!"

Li Wen spread his hands in confusion.

"What did I do?"

"You know what you did."

The gray-blond bearded dwarf glared at Li Wen while blowing his messy beard.

Li Wen smiled and tried to pull away the opponent's arm thicker than his own thigh, "Oh, it's a small matter... Let's see what this is."

Pa La ~ Pa La ~
Can't move.

So he could only replace his collar with a reddish-brown substance the size of a fist, and stuff it into the opponent's hand.

"Hey~"

"Don't think that the matter of bribing me is over like this. Let me tell you, the matter of you seducing the chosen son of our dwarves will not end like this... Hey, what is this?"

The dwarf withdrew his hand while talking, and looked closer to the copper bell-sized eyes, but he didn't find any mystery about this stone-like thing.

Li Wen doesn't know, but since the green dragon "gem" wants it, maybe it's some kind of magical ore with some kind of effect?
It's not that people in this world don't know how to pay for the beauty, but the problem is that this thing is not good-looking... Except that it has a certain magical value, it can't explain why gems are wanted.

Li Wen believed in the eyes of the dragon.

So he insisted.

"Ore, some kind of ore."

"ore?"

The dwarf holds the fist-sized ore and looks left and right, up and down, it turns out that every girl is not easy~
"Bah! What is the ore? What's the use?"

I also want to know what's the use...

Li Wen opened his pure eyes, and made up a name casually, "It's called the Demon Heart Mine. Why don't you go back and try it out?"

The forging skills of dwarves are unparalleled in the world, and the prerequisite for creating excellent equipment is to understand the properties of raw materials.

Therefore, they also have a unique set of dwarven identification methods for various raw materials that have not been crafted, in order to determine the various physical and magical properties of the materials, what kind of items are suitable for crafting, and how to craft them.

Li Wen came to them just to see how this thing could be used.

"Go back and try?"

The dwarf thought the proposal was okay, but...

"You are with me! Let me tell you, don't think that I will let you go if you just give me some ore. If you don't return our chosen son to me! I will... I will pester you every day! "

Li Wen raised his hands, "Well, I won't resist, I'll go with you."

He still wants to watch it together.

……

To the embassy of the dwarves...

A smithy?

Li Wen looked up and down the appearance of the blacksmith shop, and smacked his lips.

"Helen gives you a place like this to live in? How stingy."

"Also exploited."

Li Wen added when he saw the two dwarves walking out from behind each holding a big sword that had apparently just been baked with a playful smile on their faces.

"What exploitation? You human beings are like this. You have a lot of narrow-mindedness. It's just a sparring. It's ridiculous that your city lord also said that you have a good sword-making skill in Jianfeng City. Seeing that some of the weapons we make casually are the only ones you can use in your lifetime. look up to."

Li Wen just nodded, "Ah, yes, yes, bring out more weapons and shields, and hit her hard in the face, so that the blind city lord will regret it!"

"That's right!"

The dwarf patted... Li Wen's arm, and suddenly felt that Li Wen's eyes lit up.

"You're not like them."

"really."

The dwarf leading the way took out the Demon Heart Mine that Li Wen had given him, and called out to his brothers.

"Brothers, come and see what this is, I haven't seen it before?"

As a dwarf who has been in contact with forging skills for many years, there are really not many types of ores that he has not seen. For him, most ores have their own value, but they are suitable for use in various aspects.

This is especially true for those magic ores.

There are no waste materials, only waste blacksmiths.

As for Li Wen, an elite human magic master, what he can produce must be worthy of his status.

He said he didn't pay attention to it, but the dwarf was already mentally prepared.

So... trade secrets.

The dwarf who brought Li Wen stopped Li Wen's seeking knowledge. He just looked at Li Wen's gaudy long sword made by an elf, and said with some disdain.

"Your long sword is not very useful. It is unreliable at critical moments. It will break if you touch it. If I give you a new one, it will definitely be better than his."

Li Wen pouted.

"looks good?"

"What's the use of looking good?"

"What's the use of being ugly? Do you think I'm going to use this sword to kill the enemy when I really encounter a battle?"

The dwarf moved his mouth, he could only condemn so much.

"……shallow!"

Li Wen responded with a smile.

"Human beings are purple."

Li Wen didn't have to wait too long, and a dwarf walked out holding the half-sized Demon Heart Mine.

"It is an ore related to the mind. It has two functions of causing mental damage and defending against it. But the defensive ability is a little stronger, and it may just be the attribute of this ore. If you can get more samples, maybe There are more discoveries."

While speaking, the dwarf kept glancing at Li Wen.

The ore was something Li Wen provided and they already knew it, so what he meant...was to want more ore.

Gems that provide abilities related to psychic damage and protection are rare.

Currently known and commonly used are star ruby ​​and ruby.

As big as half a quail egg, a star ruby ​​costs 1000 gold, and a ruby ​​costs 5000...

The gems on the necklace hanging around Li Wen's neck are made of star rubies.

However, these two kinds of ores are scarce in stock, and they also require special gem techniques for processing, and there is a possibility of scrapping during the processing, so there are not many finished products.

Right now, if a new type of ore that can be related to spiritual damage can be developed, it will undoubtedly be an irresistible temptation for the dwarves.

Li Wen hesitated, thinking it was possible.

But fortunately, he had previously classified the Demon Heart Mine that had learned different sources of voices because of Ah Zhi's attack.

The ones given just now are from the orcs, now you can try the ones from the Grand Arcanist.

"You wait~"

While talking, Li Wen didn't even chant a spell, and drew a circle on his side easily and freely, and a small circular portal appeared beside Li Wen's hand.

Reaching in and digging twice, he grabbed a shuttle-shaped magic heart mine and backed out again.

"Hey."

It made all the dwarves stare at Li Wen with wide eyes—is it really so smooth for human mages to cast spells?
Except for the rune dwarves, the dwarves who don't have a high racial talent for spells are almost drooling with envy.

The result came out soon--

no difference.

No matter whose ambition condenses these substances, there is no difference in their performance attributes.

"The offensiveness is actually not strong, and there is no great potential to carry temporary spells, but it is good to make jewelry such as rings or necklaces for defense... But if the amount is small, the effect is not strong, and I am afraid that the finished product will be difficult." Reaching the level of twilight, this mineral is far less pure than star ruby, and its value is far worse. It is indeed not a gem, it can only be an ore. But if you use a lot, you don’t know how much you have in stock..."

When speaking, the dwarf stared at Li Wen, and his eyes could already be said to be explicit.

They didn't care where the minerals in Li Wen's hands came from, and they didn't care why they had never seen them before.

Maybe it was discovered in a corner where a master of magic like Li Wen traveled around the world. They just cared about how many new mines there are and whether they can make money from them.

Li Wen shrugged, and asked with his eyes to the Demon Heart Mine, which was grabbed by the dwarf's left and right hands.

"If you used the ore in your hand to create a piece of equipment, what would you create?"

The dwarf shook the two and a half pieces of Demon Heart Mine in his hand, "Perhaps, a belt?"

"Then why not try it now?"
