The old man in front of him, who was forging iron, completed the final process and placed the brand-new mask in front of the girl.

Louisa picked up the mask, and Beatis, who was sitting on a stake stool drinking barley tea, reached out and tugged at the corner of her dress.

"It's okay, you're here to stay."

…

Three days ago.

Louisa and Beatis fled to an abandoned alley where houses are old and the ground is collapsing.

"It should be fine here..."

Whitetith, who had landed in Louisa's arms and was barely running on her own, was gasping for breath at the moment.

"Louisa, there's a voice nearby."

Angelina hovered in the air, eventually perched on the roof of a certain room.

The door looked like it had been repaired, and although there were still stains on it, Louisa only stepped forward to wipe it with her hand, and realized that it was only applied ink.

"Looks like someone is using it here."

"Who would live in a place like this..."

Bhatis thought back to when she was running wildly, and at a fork in the road, there were no traces of people or work and life around.

As if hearing a voice, the door slowly opened a crack, and a bloodshot eye surveyed them.

"I thought the rats had found it."

After a short scrutiny, an old man came out of the door, and when he saw the ashes on their bodies, he thought that they had also been hunted down.

"Come in first, I can keep you for a while before the rats go."

Stepping inside, a row of mechanical stabbing axes standing by the door leaned out and closed the door, and if someone trespassed, the consequences might be unimaginable.

There are many vegetables planted in the house, and all kinds of equipment necessary for life are basically perfect, and it seems that the old man has been living here for a long time.

The two thanked the old man for taking him in, and at the same time talked about the purpose of the trip. When I heard that they were from the earthly world, a feeling of nostalgia appeared on the somewhat pale face that had not seen the sun for a long time.

"Oh, Capida, it's a familiar name that's been around for a long time, and it sounds a little unfamiliar."

The old man squinted his eyes and sat in a rocking chair, the stack of old books beside him had also lost their color after years of polishing, but from the titles of the books, the classification could be vaguely seen, mostly professional books on wrought iron and cast armor.

"You're from Capida too?"

Combining the old man's age and these things that could prove his origin and occupation, Louisa asked in disbelief.

"Are you Doro Win... Master Dora? ”

The Wen family is one of the most legendary merchant families in recent history, and when Farr Win, who was just a newcomer to the world of design, seized the opportunity to seize a niche in the jewelry industry when Farne Wing, who was only a newcomer to the world of design, caused public outrage by monopolizing the production, manufacturing and processing industries.

After the negotiations with Kairuth were fruitless, they took coercive measures against her, and the prices of various types of jewelry during that time were extremely disorderly.

Farr's father was a jeweler employed in the Kairuth factory, and Farr and Kailuth had known each other since childhood, and now that he was on the opposite side of her, she was even more unwilling.

In order to quickly defeat her competitors, Kailuth even sold her jewelry at zero profit, thinking that with her strong financial resources, she would be able to bring Farr's brand under her banner in a short period of time, but she did not expect that Farr received funding from all parties at this time, and the businessmen who had been swallowed up by her and collapsed under her means, as well as designers who could not put their designs under their own names, but could only rely on the name "Kailuth" have come forward.

For a time, the crowd rebelled and left.

Before the defeat of both sides, Farr came to her side, I don't know what they said, in short, Kairuth finally chose to give in, and readjusted the interior, no longer regard those three words as important, although most of the goods are still sold through Kairuth's channels, but the merchants who once lost their house numbers have regained their original names, which can leave a legacy for future generations.

Two years later, Kailusi chose to marry Farr, and after the two families merged into one, they achieved a hundred flowers, and the name of the Wen family and Kairusi's enterprise became wider and wider.

The current Doro Wen is the last heir of the Wen family, when he was young, he was not interested in running a business, but had a soft spot for the art of blacksmithing, and the weapons and armor he made were greatly appreciated by the military department, and were recognized by the previous monarchs, who entrusted him with important tasks.

But it was such a genius forger who evaporated from the world on his twenty-fifth birthday, leaving no clue to be found.

After years of fruitless searching, the head of the Wen family died depressed, and in the end, there was no next name for Kairuth, but fortunately, the royal family later took over Kairuth's shop, factory and clubhouse.

The person who has almost become an unsolved mystery appears in this isolated and invisible underground world at this moment.

In the portrait, the high-spirited old man has become a rickety old man, but the iron will of the past still supports him to the present.

"The problem of the Golden State was discovered during the reign of the previous lord of the city, but it wasn't so serious at the time... In order to continue mining gold, and to make the dragon sleep again when it wakes up, they need someone to make protective equipment, at that time I thought that the affairs of the gold state could take the Wen family to the next level, but I did not expect that by chance after the design draft was first completed, I found that not only did it continue to mine gold, but also carried out many businesses that were forbidden by canonical law..."

He said as he unwrapped the package that Aoi had given to Louisa.

"So I gave up the idea of continuing to forge for them, and naturally I was hunted down, and I could only survive here for the rest of my life, hoping that one day I could see the light of day again... But then again, you're not good at it. ”

Doro looked at the various metal building materials spread out on his legs.

"The protective masks made of these things can indeed withstand for a while, but they will soon be eroded by the miasma there, and there will be no return. Well... But I haven't started work for so long, but this can allow me to practice my hands. ”

"What do you mean?"

Although this made Louisa suspicious of Aoi's motives, she was more concerned about the second half of Dora's words.

"What's the point, of course, I want you to go out, and then fish me up and continue to enjoy my glory and wealth, behind the giant dragon's head, but here is unknown, the second exit."

According to Doro Win, there is only one way for outsiders to enter and exit the city, and that is the entrance through which Louisa and Beatis are brought in, and those who enter and exit are recorded and judged by the ferryman based on their clothing and conversation, and in subsequent activities, they will judge whether they will behave falsely or endanger the Golden State, and decide whether they will cooperate or annihilate.

In addition, it is to pass through the dragon's head, but this method is to survive in danger, even if you are lucky enough to pass, you will be swallowed by the flames of the Yanlian Mountain at the exit.

They made an agreement that Louisa would investigate the truth of what Doro Wyn had said, and he would build the mask she needed to get to the Dragon's Lair.

Because of her injuries and the difficulty of moving together, Bettes and Angelina were left behind by Louisa to wait for her return.
