The Witcher: Elemental Lords

The best time to use the furnace is right after the blacksmith has finished with it, when the furnace is still hot. That way, you can use the heat to forge ordinary iron blocks into simple farming tools.

Dorlay naturally needed to take advantage of the remaining heat, and soon, the blacksmith's shed was filled with the sound of clanging.

Verrick rested while guiding Dorlay, nodding in approval. This kid was good, the question was how much he could comprehend.

The highest-level blacksmith in Mondo City was only level three, because the transition from level two to level three required a certain foundation in Battle Qi. With a foundation in Battle Qi, the blacksmith could use it to engrave various array patterns onto weapons. Being able to use Battle Qi to attach array patterns to weapons was the main criterion for whether a blacksmith could advance.

However, the vast majority of blacksmiths in Mondo City were only level two. A large part of the reason was that while everything else was easy to achieve, Battle Qi techniques were hard to find. Every blacksmith shop clearly marked the price of Battle Qi techniques, with even the lowest level costing at least 20 gold coins. Verrick had only saved 10 gold coins after working for so many years, and with the need to support his family, accumulating 20 gold coins seemed like a distant dream.

He didn't tell Dorlay any of this, fearing it would discourage him.

But the good thing about this kid was that he was used to hardship. As long as he could survive, he was happy and content, a good kid.

Soon, it was time for lunch.

Although Dorlay worked hard at the blacksmith shop, with a high level of activity comparable to the mines, his arms and back ached after a morning's work. But the good thing was that there was enough food, and even meat to eat. Dorlay hadn't eaten meat in a long time, so he didn't feel the hardship or fatigue, and was happy all day long.

Whenever he had free time, he would go to the forge and practice basic hammer techniques, which he enjoyed quite a bit, and it also strengthened his body.

Soon, the day passed, and it was time to get off work again.

Turn off the furnace, extinguish the fire, and put away the tools.

After a day of hard work, Dorlay could take the small hammer he used back with him today. In Verrick's words, to use a tool well, you had to be familiar with it. When he first started forging, he would sleep with his small hammer, treating it even better than his wife.

Saying goodbye to Verrick and the other blacksmiths, apprentices, and Hage, Dorlay stood at the entrance of the blacksmith shop, waving goodbye to them. Turning around, he glanced at the slightly dark city, watching the gradually setting sun, and felt a sense of loneliness for no reason.

The blacksmith shop was lively, but he would be alone when he returned home at night. On the not-so-quiet avenue, his expression gradually changed from joy and happiness to indifference.

This was him alone at night.

Looking at the somewhat dark road, he muttered to himself, 'That damn dog better not come tonight, or I'll smash him to death with the small hammer.'

He tightened his clothes, tucking the small hammer into his wide sleeves.

Stepping onto the avenue, Dorlay's lonely figure quickly disappeared by the roadside.

The slums weren't far from here. Entering the slums, a familiar and亲切 feeling arose spontaneously. Passing the ditch, Dorlay quickly saw his new home.

As he walked, he quietly observed his surroundings. There were no suspicious people. Reaching the door, he quickly opened it, entered, and closed it, completing the three actions in one smooth motion.

At this time, the dog Aldo was already waiting at the door. As soon as Dorlay entered, the dog Aldo surrounded him, turning around and around.

Dorlay stroked the dog's head and played with it for a while before taking out the food from his body and placing it in front of the dog Aldo.

The food in the blacksmith shop was much more plentiful than outside. He wrapped it in oiled paper, and it was still a little warm.

The dog Aldo quickly unwrapped the oiled paper and quickly finished eating. After eating, he bit the oiled paper with his mouth and took it outside.

Dorlay marveled. This dog Aldo was really becoming精.

After finishing this matter, he closed the door and took out a candle from his arms, preparing to read carefully. He wanted to take a good look at the storybook of Nalt and Yer, reading and looking up the dictionary to recognize the words inside. This was a very slow process, because there were too many words he didn't know, and sometimes he didn't even recognize the words in the dictionary, which led to him reading very slowly, very slowly.

However, Dorlay still read with great interest. The room was only filled with the sound of breathing and turning pages.

He also discovered a phenomenon, which was that the dog Aldo would not bother him at all when he was reading, and would quietly lie there, with a pair of eyes that seemed full of... wisdom.

Dorlay felt like his brain was flooded. He actually thought a dog could have wisdom, which was simply鬼.

He was quickly attracted by the story of Nalt and Yer and then immersed himself in it.

This was a very great person, also very powerful, and most importantly, very smart. Starting from a small family公子, learning martial arts, and then learning witchcraft, he was very good at using his brain, progressing rapidly, and then walking out of the manor, entering the world, step by step...

Dorlay read for a while, and the candle quickly burned out. He sighed, then put down the book and began to practice the battle stance. He found that this stance actually had a purpose. At least after practicing for a few days, he felt light all over and his movements were coordinated, so he planned to practice for a while before going to bed every day.

After reading the biography of Nalt and Yer today, he was very concerned about this battle stance, because Nalt and Yer had built a good foundation with this battle stance. In order to deal with Aldo, that bastard, Dorlay had to seize every opportunity to improve his abilities, to improve his abilities.

In this way, he practiced the few movements back and forth, practicing until his legs were numb and his arms were tired, before resting and quickly falling into a deep sleep.

The Hellhound Aldo got up from the ground, saw the already sleeping Dorlay, and quickly retracted his drooping ears, propping them up straight, while putting away all the dog's states. He glanced at Dorlay, and a mouthful of light spewed out from his mouth, landing on Dorlay's body, quickly disappearing.

The door opened automatically at this time, and the dog Aldo quietly slipped out.

Through the surveys these past few nights, he had roughly determined that deep within the iron ore mines of Domon County, there was a small magic crystal mine that had not yet been discovered by humans or demons. As long as he went and occupied it and absorbed it, the injuries on his body would be almost healed.

His injuries had been slowly improving these past few days, and he had recovered about one-thousandth of his strength, but this was still too slow.

Domon County was still too remote and its resources were too exhausted. If it were in the Demon Realm, injuries like this would take at most three months to recover.

Of course, the premise was that he had to survive on the spot. With the strength of the creatures of the Demon Realm, even if he could barely survive, he would probably be eaten by any creature he encountered, let alone be picked up and raised by someone, which was probably impossible.

Thinking of this, his gratitude towards Dorlay deepened. Thanks to Dorlay, he had reluctantly given him a vegetable dumpling when he was about to die. Who would have thought that a dignified Hellhound would actually survive on a human's vegetable dumpling.

Sometimes, life is so ridiculous.

He quickly left Domon City, running all the way along the forest next to the official road, and soon entered the mountains of the mine, and then continued to advance. As long as he found the mine, then he would not be far from recovery.

The dog Aldo was very confident in this.

The next morning, Dorlay woke up from his sleep. After a night of rest, he felt energetic and full of energy. He reached out and grabbed the small hammer, slamming it a few times in the air, feeling very energetic.

Another pleasant day began.

Wash up, go to work.
