Cthulhu

Chapter 417
Originally wanted Concubine Yun and Hongxi to go back to Jade City with Death Blade's team, but Concubine Yun was hesitant and seemed very embarrassed.Going back to the city without Cheng Cheng, she always felt something was wrong.He had no choice but to take the two girls and Pang Jie to the dwarf tribe together.

The place where the dwarves live is also very secret, almost isolated from the world. After nearly ten days of trekking, they came to a remote place in the kingdom of the beast god. They did not expect the dwarves to live in the kingdom of the beast god.

Entering a deserted forest, I don't know how many mountains and rivers I have crossed before I have reached my destination.This is a relatively barren place. Trees don't seem to like growing in this place, only various hard rocks.

"The tribe of the dwarves lives in that mountainside." After many days of getting to know each other, the elders of the dwarves knew through conversations and Pang Xie's side, that they knew that Cheng Cheng was not a treacherous person.Just after stepping over a mountain, he pointed to the Gobi-like place in front of him and said.

Standing on the top of the hill, looking at the land in front, it is indeed too barren. If the unbuilt Jade Maiden City is backward, this place is simply barren. The difficulty of surviving here is much more difficult than that of Jade Maiden City. .

Indistinctly, there are tinkling knocking sounds coming from the front, as if someone is forging iron, some are crisp, some are thick, the sound is not as unpleasant as the imagined noise, but implies a kind of law, You are like a piece of music.

"Do the dwarves live in this barren place?" Looking at the barren scene ahead, he asked in surprise.

"That's right." In order to prevent some human forces from discovering, the dwarves captured the slaves and had to hide themselves, just like the goblins and elves.Although the dwarves are superior in combat power, they are also fragile and weak in the face of human forces.

"What do you rely on to survive here?" I really don't understand, this place is so barren, how can the dwarves survive and reproduce?
"It's not difficult to survive, it's just a bit more difficult. There are many casting materials here, which is also a place that the dwarves like." Pang Le didn't have much distress on his face. For the dwarves, as long as there are casting materials A place is a good place.Difficulty is nothing to worry about.

The group continued to walk forward, and when they came to the residence of the dwarves, all they saw were houses built of stones. Outside the houses, there were many shirtless dwarves, waving heavy hammers in their hands. Hammer the red-hot iron in your hand to break the iron into different shapes.

The dwarves make a living by casting, so almost every male dwarf in every household joins in the casting. The dream of almost every dwarf is to forge an artifact from his own hands.

This place is like a village stump, without any trees, and outside or inside the houses built of stones, there are busy dwarves. They are sweating profusely, working tirelessly, completing the works in their hands.

"Are all dwarves naturally good at casting?" Pang Xie asked in a low voice. He only knew that his casting was no different from ordinary people, maybe it was just that he was stronger.Does this mean that he is not of the blood of the dwarves at all?

"Not all are talented. Among the dwarves, those without talent are all engaged in excavation work." Pang Le shook his head.

Hearing this, Pang Xie felt a little relieved.

"What kind of tempering does a good weapon need to go through before it can be completed?" Watching the casting of the dwarves all the way, they were very focused.

There are many sacred artifacts on the earth, all of which are masters of the dwarves and human foundry masters. It is very difficult to cast an emperor-level fighting weapon or magic weapon, let alone a sacred artifact?
"If you want to forge a successful weapon, the training you have experienced is beyond anyone's imagination. First of all, the materials are necessary. Without good materials, you can't make a good weapon. And then you have to go through a lot of experience. Thousands of times of hammering, as long as one level is not passed, it is likely to become a pile of scrap iron, so it is very difficult to forge a successful weapon." Pang Le, the elder of the dwarf, sighed for a long time. Although there are quite a few holy artifacts, who knows how much painstaking effort these sacred artifacts took?How long did it take to settle out.

"Let's go, let's meet the patriarch." Pang Le explained to Cheng Cheng and Pang after the dwarves dispersed.

"Okay." Cheng Cheng, who came to the dwarf tribe, just wanted to meet the patriarch, so of course he was very happy.Concubine Yun supported Hongxi and followed behind him, only Pang Jie was a little hesitant, as if he was hesitant at this time.

After passing through several avenues, there were many stone houses on both sides, and then walked up the stairs to the top of the mountain, and climbed up to the mountainside. There was a big hole above the mountainside, and there was a faint knocking sound coming from the hole.

Pang Le led a few people, and walked straight into the cave. There were a few dwarf warriors guarding outside the cave. They looked like powerful experts. Seeing that it was the elder who brought people over, he didn't bother. block.

"I want to see the patriarch, are you in the grotto?" It seems that the few dwarves guarding outside the cave have a lot of importance in the clan, and even the elders have to ask them for instructions.

"Yes, you can see the patriarch when you go in." One of the dwarves nodded and said.

Only then did Pang Le turn around to call a few people, and walked straight into the cave.The place that can be guarded day and night by the dwarves is naturally a more important place for the dwarves, and no one else can enter.

As soon as they entered the cave, the light immediately dimmed, and at the same time, the sound of knocking became louder and louder. After leading a group of people through the cave for a distance of more than ten feet, the terrain became wider.I saw a small pool with a diameter of 50 meters in front of me, and the water in the pool was crystal clear, and there were no fish raised. There were many weapons lying or lying or standing in the pool.

In addition to this square pool, there are also many such weapons around the cave. At the same time, there are still such weapons hanging on the roof of the cave. How long does it take to polish so many weapons?

"My God, so many weapons?" Concubine Yun looked around at the weapons in the cave, and couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, unbelievable.

"These are all semi-finished products. After a long period of inspection, the next process can only be carried out after passing the test. Making a good weapon has a very cumbersome process. For example, those weapons in the pool have to go through a year-long process. Soak it, if there is a little bit of rust, it will be returned to the furnace and rebuilt." Pang Le patiently explained to everyone, looking at the semi-finished product in the cave, his eyes shone brightly, as if he was looking at his own child.

Looking at the entire cave, there are at least thousands of such semi-finished products, which are withstanding the test of time.Walking all the way, bypassing the pool in the center, and entering another cave.

The scene in the cave shocked everyone except Pang Le. There was a dwarf standing on the platform, waving a huge hammer with a heavy weight in his hand, hammering a peerless fierce soldier, while lying on the ground. The peerless fierce weapon that had already formed on the platform should be a huge sword, with a dark red color all over its body, and every time the dwarf thumped it, there would be a crisp and deep sound.

Concubine Yun's eyes widened, and she saw the dwarf wielding a sledgehammer, which was out of proportion under the huge sword lying on the ground, and exclaimed, "It's such a big sword, who can use such a sword?"

Pang Le stopped, did not continue to walk forward, and made a silence gesture to them, as if he was afraid that their arrival would disturb the dwarf who was wielding the giant hammer, and then explained in a very low voice: "This sword is the painstaking effort of the patriarch for more than 50 years. Now it has taken shape and has undergone the final forging test. If there are no accidents, this is also a peerless fierce weapon."

"It can be seen." Nodding his head, Cheng Cheng could fully feel the power of the giant sword hiding on the stage. It was dark red all over, only the blade, without the hilt, and the scabbard would definitely not be needed anymore. , What is such a huge sword with a scabbard for?
If the giant sword is successfully forged, it should at least be able to reach the quality of a high-ranking fighting weapon, and the quality of a holy weapon is also very likely, or even higher.Can the painstaking efforts of the patriarch of the dwarves for more than 50 years be worse?
As for who can use such a giant sword, there is no need to worry, there are many races using giant swords in the world.

The few people stood by for more than half an hour, no one spoke loudly, they all watched the patriarch of the dwarves sweat profusely there, raising the giant hammer to forge the giant sword on the stage.When the dwarf put down the giant hammer in his hand, he ran to the side of the stage and pressed two switches, and saw that the stage holding the giant sword shrank down immediately, and then a bay of water gushed out quickly, filling the pool with water until After submerging the giant sword, the water stopped gushing out.

"Patriarch!" At this moment, Pang Le led the crowd forward and greeted the dwarf.

"Well, who are these?" Seeing that Pang Le brought a few humans over, the patriarch was a little surprised, but not panicked.

"This matter is a long story, please ask the patriarch to talk in the secret room." After a while, he couldn't explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly, so Pang Le had to ask the patriarch to go to the secret room for a long talk.

"Okay." Pang Ke, the patriarch of the dwarves, is also a master casting master of contemporary masterpieces. Although he is far away, many of his works have caused a sensation on the Internet.
