Chapter 29: The Holy Land of Forging

The Forge Sanctuary is the continent's most famous source of metal products.

Here, it has the largest open-pit coal mine ever discovered on the continent, and not far from the iron ore production area of the Kingdom of Firingen.

Diana, who was here a few days ago, told Charles that the level of exploration here is very low, and the level of mining is low enough. The mines she encountered along the way were almost all open-pit and shallow mines, which could only be mined manually by slaves. But metal smelting is a bit interesting.

The transportation of the Forge Mecca between the coal mines and the Great Lake was good in this era, and the convenient water transportation allowed countless cargo ships from all over the continent to transport all kinds of ore here, and then leave laden with all kinds of metal products.

This is the land that belongs to the god of forging, and the temple of forging is located here. For two thousand years, dynasties have changed in the land around the Holy Land, and they are all enthusiastic about this place, but they are helpless to dare not touch it.

No one dared to break the balance between theocracy and kingship.

It wasn't until this time that Charles didn't know that the name of the lake next to it was Hammer Lake.

Charles and his party rode into the lakeside business district on the outskirts of the Holy Land, where they would stay for a few days while the matter on the Avalon side was resolved.

To the south of the business district is the dwarven residential area, and further south is the work area, where the red-glowing blacksmith temple is in the center.

At this time, it was already half past four in the morning, and the faint sound of striking iron began to come from the work area.

Tonyo led the group to an inn with the caravan's green tree-wheeled banner on its door, apparently chartered.

As soon as Charles entered the door, he felt like he was flying.

Elizabeth, who suddenly appeared, grabbed Charles by the armpit at once, and then lifted him high to check if he was injured somewhere.

Diana snickered as Elizabeth lifted Charles up and examined her after checking on her.

Elizabeth, relieved, led the two of them to a room.

"This one is back to you. Elizabeth handed Charles two rings, Charles's ring of power and the ring containing the indemnity.

"It's yours. Elizabeth then handed Diana a necklace, and Diana breathed a sigh of relief when she took it.

"Tell me more about what happened. Elizabeth asked.

Charles and Diana then tell her in detail about how they were kidnapped in the theater and how they escaped from the bottom of the boat until they met Donio.

"You tell me all the suspicions. Elizabeth then said to Diana.

After recording a list of names, Elizabeth left without any delay, and before leaving, she instructed the two of them to stay here for a few days and not to move, "If you want to go out for a walk, someone must follow." ”

Charles put the ring back on, then took out the last clean set of clothes from it and handed it to Diana, "You go take a shower and get some rest." ”

Diana didn't respond, just sat on the edge of the bed with the necklace she had just recovered, and didn't say a word.

Charles noticed that she was feeling a little depressed, so he put his clothes at the end of the bed and sat down beside her.

"What's wrong?" Charles asked.

"That's why I'm here. Diana said as she stroked the necklace in her hand.

"If it can get you here, it will definitely get you back too. Charles said, "We can figure it out together, and we can always figure it out." ”

"I miss my family. Diana whispered, "Do you want to go back?"

"What am I going to do when I go back? Charles smiled bitterly, "Did you go back as a barbecued pork?"

"Sorry......" Diana looked a little panicked.

"It's okay, I've already figured it out anyway. Charles fell backwards and lay down on the bed, "Then again, since this time turner can send you here, it should also be able to send you back, and there is even more possibility that it will send me back to me like this, as long as I don't go back the same way as a barbecued pork." At this point, our goals are aligned. ”

"Thank you. Diana whispered.

"What's polite to me, it's fate that everyone meets. Charles said with a smile, "Although we come from different worlds, 'being a man, helping if you can, doing things, daring to do good' is the spiritual value and common pursuit that the people of Nanning in the two worlds agree on." ”

"When you go back, I invite you to eat on Zhongshan Road. Diana smiled, "There are a lot of things you definitely haven't eaten." ”

"That's good. Charles came to the spirit, "remember to call your two sisters when the time comes." ”

"I don't want to be hammered. Diana turned around and punched Charles in the stomach.

"Knock Knock"

There was three knocks on the door of the room before someone pushed it open, and Halka came in with her head stretched.

"Didn't bother you, did you?" asked Halkala.

Charles and Diana, who sat up again, shook their heads together.

"It's not early, I'll help you check your body. Halkala came over and dragged Charles and Diana to the bathroom without saying a word, "When you are in the wild, you are likely to be parasitized by insects that burrow into the flesh, and if you don't find them in time, they will make their home on your body and breed." ”

“......”×2

After some tossing, Charles stepped out of the bathroom and walked towards his bed.

Packing up his things, Halkala helped Charles in the bathroom and took them to the balcony to dry before leaving the room.

Diana looked at Charles on her bed with a funny expression, and then asked with concern, "How's it going, it's okay?"

Just now, under the desperate resistance of the two children, Halkala could only check on Diana and then let Charles in for an examination, only to find that Charles had been tricked in the back.

"It's okay, the bug is biting the skin, and it hasn't gotten into the flesh yet. Charles replied, "Just cut it off and put some medicine on it." ”

Charles lay down on the bed after saying that, "Are you going out for a walk tomorrow?"

Diana, on the other bed, replied, "I don't want to go, I went shopping with the teacher the other day." ”

"Oh. Charles said, "I want to go buy something." ”

"You can take a trip to the dwarf's workspace. Diana said, "But be careful. ”

"......," Charles paused, "I can guess what's going on." ”

After a day and two nights of intense stress and physical exhaustion, Charles and Diana quickly fell asleep in their respective beds, and even snoring sounded in the room a few moments later.
