Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Ryan and the others followed Lombard in the underground passage of the dwarves for 4 consecutive days. In these 4 days, they finally saw the digging ability of the dwarves, which opened their eyes to Ryan and the others. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Ryan would not believe it. The dwarves can turn the entire underground into a thoroughfare of transportation. If there is no person who is familiar with the road to lead, I am afraid that even if they can enter, they will get lost in the corridors like spider webs.

Along the way, Ryan also curiously asked how long Lombard was from Blackrock City. After looking at him, Ryan pointed to his feet and said, “This is it!” After explaining, Ryan understood that the so-called The Black Rock City is actually the entire space that the dwarves dig underground. It can be said that where the dwarves dig, it is the area of ​​Black Rock City, and the rock fortress is actually an entrance to the entire Black Rock City.

After understanding this truth, Ryan shook his head and said to Freya, "What kind of Black Rock City is this? It is simply the kingdom of dwarves. If time, the dwarves dig through the entire continent, the ground All of them belong to the dwarf clan."

Freya did not speak, but Lombard gave Ryan a roll of eyes and said to him: "Do you think there are no enemies under the ground? There will also be various terrifying creatures here. For example, this time our King ordered martial law. So. And it is not possible to dig anywhere, such as the Flying Dragon Desert on the side of the Hengduan Mountains, and the Giant Wilderness of the Silent Forest further south, we will never pass, and your human Fernando City, Maybe we don’t want us to dig a city-in-city underground, right? Besides, if the ground collapses, it will be a disaster whether it is on the ground or the residents on the ground!"

Ryan was snatched by Lombard, but he just smiled wryly and didn't get angry. On the contrary, several guards around him gave Lombard a fierce look. If it hadn’t been for his master’s order, he might have pulled it out. The sword came to vent Ryan's breath.These guards are basically fighters who have been trained by Ryan, Elendo and Ceres in turn. They are familiar with how to protect a magician and various combat skills. They come from the three families of Cassano. This is also Ryan. Another way of expressing closeness and trust to Emilio and other families.

By the evening of the 4th day, in fact, Ryan and the others went deep underground and could not see the sunrise and sunset outside at all. It was only inferred based on the number of daily meals and rest. Lombard finally brought Ryan and the others to a spacious place. Place, this is the central area of ​​Blackrock City, where the dwarf king lives.

Compared with Rock Fortress, the traffic passage here is much more spacious, even if you run 4 carriages side by side, it is more than enough, and there are a lot of dwarves coming and going here, and the both sides of the passage are full of caves. Ryan watched countless dwarves. Walking up and down here, looking at the wooden signs hanging at the entrance of the cave, it is obvious that this is probably the shop of the dwarf.

The height of the dwarves is about two-thirds of the height of a human, but since the tunnels dug by the dwarves are also 3 meters high, Ryan and the others do not feel depressed along the way.It's just that when Ryan and Freya were among a large group of dwarves, their height became the best mark. Many dwarf teenagers followed Ryan and them closely, watching with curious eyes. This group of visitors who are obviously different from themselves.

Lombard took Ryan and Freya into a large cave that extends in all directions, and when Ryan just stepped in, his body skin immediately felt a heat wave. When he took a closer look, he immediately understood the origin of the warmth. : There are hundreds of anvils in this big cave. Obviously this is the forging place of the dwarves.

Ryan looked at the flying sparks and iron filings, frowned slightly, then gently pulled Freya towards him, and then propped up a faint magic shield next to the two people, although Freya She looks weak and docile, but as the Queen of the Elves, how could she not even have such a little ability to protect herself?Among other things, she casually used the semi-artifacts on her body, not to mention the iron filings and sparks, even if it was an 8th level magic, she would never want to hurt Fria’s hair, but this elf The queen could see that Ryan cared about herself from this subtle movement. She smiled sweetly, and leaned her head on Ryan's shoulder along the way and walked side by side with him.

The caves go deeper and deeper, and the anvils inside are becoming scarcer, but Ryan has had experience in forging magic items in the Imperial Capital and Cassano. It can be seen to some extent that the quality of the anvils going into the cave is better. The stronger the dwarves who create items are.By the time they came to the innermost point, they could no longer see the entrance to the cave when they came in. In this corner, there was only a huge anvil. Two strong dwarves were picking up big hammers and beating one by turns. Something burning red.

The two dwarves are naked, one is wearing black trousers, the other is wearing red shorts, and beside them, there is another dwarf holding the tuft with iron tongs and placing it as much as possible. , So that they can use their strength to beat.Ryan watched for a while, but found that no matter how hard the two dwarves worked hard, they couldn't change the thing at all. This immediately aroused his great interest, but at this moment, Freya suddenly He put his mouth in Ryan's ear and said softly: "The dwarf in red is the dwarf king Reynolds III, Reynolds Stuart."

"Zizi!" The two dwarves seemed to give up on beating, and threw the hot red thing into the bucket. Ryan looked at the noise and the white mist, and suddenly understood the thing in his heart. The temperature is definitely not low, and seeing how hard the two dwarves are, they still can't change their appearance even a little bit. Obviously this must be some kind of rare material.

"Damn it, can this thing really be used to forge weapons? We have spent three days, but still can't make it soft. I said Reynolds, are you wrong? "The dwarf in black trousers complained dejectedly.

"No, Adrian, I dare to promise with my reputation that I will never make a mistake, but I believe there must be something in it that we haven't done yet. Let me think about it again." The dwarf king Reynolds III fell into contemplation. Although there were some frustrated expressions on his face, he still tried hard to think about ways. According to the craftsmanship handed down by the dwarves for tens of thousands of years, even the artifact is not without forging. After it came out, but there was nothing to do with this humble little thing in front of me, but now I need to use this thing to make a very important item, which makes Reynolds feel extremely distressed.

Ryan, who was standing on the side, saw some clues. He had made many magical items in the Imperial Magic Guild and Cassano. Many times Ryan had to stand in front of the anvil and instruct the blacksmiths how to forge the shape, even I personally melted the material, and the inconspicuous ore was so hard that it immediately aroused Ryan's interest.

"Let me try it." Ryan couldn't help but stand up: "Maybe I can melt it."

"You?" The dwarf king Renos and his companions turned around when they heard the sound, and looked at Ryan's body together, but they quickly left the guy in their hands and strode towards Ryan. Came here, because they saw Freya nestling in Ryan's arms.

"Ah, Your Majesty the Queen, it's a great honor for you to come to Blackrock City!" Dwarf King Reynolds III said with a smile: "When was the last time you came? Ten years ago I officially became The king’s ceremony, right?"

Facing the dwarf king, Freya was ashamed to continue to snuggle in Ryan's arms. She stood up straight and smiled and replied, "Yes, Reynolds, we have indeed not seen you in ten years. Looks like everything is fine? How about Sani? How are she and the child?"

"Hehe, she's still lying in bed now, our fourth son has just been born, and that little guy drank half a bowl of spirits on the first day he was born. He must be as strong as me when he grows up!"

Ryan saw that Freya and Reynolds were chatting, and he simply ignored them and walked directly to the anvil. He took the iron tongs placed aside and clamped the thing that he didn’t know what it was. He wanted to take it. I picked it up, but I never thought that this thing didn't look very big, but it was so heavy that Ryan couldn't hold it with one hand.

"I said, don't move your little white face. The thing is very heavy. Be careful to knock your feet down!" Adrian, the dwarf who just forged with Reynolds, saw that Ryan wanted to take it uncontrollably. That tuft of things, can't help but talk.

Of course, Freya knew Reynolds, her childhood companion, but she was a little unhappy when she saw him insult her sweetheart. Her face kept smiling, but she said in a very light tone: "Ah, Reynolds, Adrian, forgot to introduce you to him. He is my husband, the human wizard Ryan."

Adrian's face suddenly blushed. Reynolds just wanted to say a few words to express his apology, but Ryan's voice rang out: "What are you going to do with this thing? It's just a bit of a softening , Or melt to cast? Or do you dwarves have special crafts?"

"We are going to use this thing to build a shield, so the craftsmanship doesn't matter. The key is that we can't change its appearance at all!" Adrian still couldn't help but speak: "Damn it, even if it is black iron. It can be melted, but this thing cannot be melted. This is really frustrating!"

"It turned out to be so, I understand." Ryan held the tuft of ore with iron tongs in both hands and placed it on the anvil. After looking up and down for a long time, he suddenly said: "This anvil Sturdy?"
