Chapter 33: The Men from the City of Gerthorne
At this moment, Levi is only in the form of a jackal, and the scales of his body have not yet grown, if he is suddenly blown away by such a steam bomb, although it is not a big deal, it is estimated that it is not very comfortable to be pierced into a hedgehog by metal fragments.
The reason why he didn't remind the addicted dwarf at the first time was that in the final analysis, Levi probably still had some thoughts in his heart to test the other party.
After all, although Zelandia existed for a definite reason, Levi didn't believe it, if these gray dwarves didn't have a certain ability to resist, how could those insatiable long-eared people in Gerthone City let go of such a big piece of fat, and enjoyed the underground mineral deposits alone, wouldn't it be fragrant?
Sure enough, at the moment when the explosion came, the old dwarf Tiger's expression instantly changed from the original fanaticism to stunned, shocked, stunned, confused, angry and finally embarrassed, which was really wonderful, and then he showed agility that was completely inconsistent with his size, turned around and ran.
After all, his movements were still half a beat slower than the others, but as the scorching steam scattered in all directions with the shattered metal parts, the surface of his body suddenly appeared to fluctuate in a circle like ripples.
The splatters of white steam and metal fragments slowed down abruptly in front of the ripple, and even stagnated outside the ripple.
That scene is very similar to the posture of the protagonist in the Matrix who uses the air wall of his mind to block bullets, and he is handsome.
"Psionics! This dead dwarf has awakened psionic energy, could he have escaped from the group of psionic monsters in Iron Molten Castle?"
Levi's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was mentally reevaluating himself as a new partner.
"Psionics!True psionics!Grey dwarves who have awakened psionics!I, Calvin, have finally found them!!"
At the same time, Calvin, on the other side, was much more shocked and complicated than Levi when he saw this scene.
Isn't it because the mentor said that he has a rare talent for psionic energy, so he wants to try to go to the dark region to find the gray dwarf who has awakened psionic energy and learn psionic energy?
Not only did he not find his goal, but he also put his ten years of youth or even his whole life into it, and he was a master of illusion, and he worked as a miner here incognito for ten years!
But after ten years of despair, he suddenly discovered that he had been looking for a long-cherished wish for many years, and the object he was looking for for ten years, especially the former boss he had dealt with for ten years...
This kind of psychological journey with eighteen bends in the mountain road is very imaginable.
However, the gray dwarf old Tiger in the eyes of everyone is only handsome for less than three milliseconds.
The next moment, the piston pusher in the broken cylinder directly broke through the psionic protection maintained to the limit, and poked into the old dwarf's old chrysanthemum...
"Ah~" I heard the old dwarf let out an inexplicable howl, and rushed to the street on the spot...
The tragedy of the scene made the people who watched this world-famous painting look away one after another.
Calvin, the animal husbandry officer who was still active, pounced on him as soon as possible, and asked warmly: "Master Tiger, don't move! I'll take care of your injuries." ”
Without saying a word, the fool was about to pull out the piston rod that was still hot, and the old dwarf shuddered and quickly stretched out his hand to stop it, "Stop! I can figure it out myself. ”
The old dwarf, who was almost hit twice physically and mentally, immediately diverted Calvin's attention and said, "I want to see Master Hogg, I have an urgent matter to report to him in advance." ”
"What is more important than yours... Master Tiger, I think you should go back and recuperate today, the steam engine has been proven to be completely feasible with your assistance, and we will be able to recreate a batch of prototypes for mining in the next few days with the cooperation of the dwarven craftsmen. Levi had already walked over and said with a false reassurance.
Tiger rolled his eyes, and in his heart, he had already scolded Levi for deliberately not reminding him, and simply went straight to the point, "The magic fluctuation caused by the release of that arcane fireball when you blasted the entrance to the West Mining District today has attracted the attention of Gerthorne City, according to the summons of our brothers who stayed in Shangcheng District, I am afraid that in the near future, there will only be an investigation team to thoroughly investigate the source of that magic fluctuation." ”
He didn't give Levi any words of reminder or instruction, but chose to tell Levi the original information in a straightforward manner, as for how to deal with it, he believed that Levi, a jackal with a darker heart than his face, had his own plans after hearing the news, and he didn't have to waste his expression.
Even he was very skeptical, even if the identity of the jackal was real...
After all, who has ever seen another gnolls call another gnolls their master? and, who has ever seen... How can a gnoll release an arcane fireball?
"When?" asked Li Wei, knowing his head.
"How can I know this, I don't have a brother who can get into their mother's council, but it shouldn't be that fast, the efficiency of the council of the drow elves, you know, every time is always accompanied by various balances and intrigues, and this time I don't know which family's 'lucky one' came, aha. ”。 The old dwarf laughed gloatingly, as if he had been caught somewhere in the back of an indescribable presence, and his smile twitched.
Levi also laughed, although the old dwarf didn't say it explicitly, but Levi could understand that with the virtue of the drow elves, after learning that there were considerable arcane fluctuations in the area of the Dark Demon Network, and the current situation could not remove high-level professionals for a long time, so do you still need to think about the result?
However, he soon had a headache, which almost meant that he was not able to put the 'Steam Engine Mine Mule' into production until the Drow Elf Investigation Team arrived.
When a group of greedy beings suddenly see a big leap in productivity, they will face a completely different outcome.
At least at the moment, Levi was not ready for an all-out war with Drow.
Zeellandia's first trial of a steam engine came to an end with a brilliant explosion, and Calvin, the livestock breeder, wanted to take the opportunity to see off old Tiger and get close to his former boss, but was dragged back to the Cavins rat farm by the collar by Holtz to continue his breeding business.
However, what Levi didn't expect was that the old dwarf with the chrysanthemum ran back early the next morning, except for the somewhat strange posture when walking, he basically couldn't see that he had just been blasted once yesterday, and as soon as he came over, he yelled to hurry up and make a second steam engine.
He was not the only one who came this time, followed by dozens of dwarves carrying various tools and tons of refined iron ingots.
It has to be said that the smelting and forging level of the dwarves is much stronger than that of Levi, a layman, and he doesn't even need Levi's help, and the bald man Fischer and Iggy's Arcane Flame Hand are enough to take on the task of welders, splicing together the steel plates forged by the dwarves, while constantly improving this most primitive version of the steam engine according to their previous scholarship.
In the midst of a group of people in full swing (mine mule carts), a group of drow elves in full armor arrived in Zeellandia.
