Volume 7: The Chamber of Secret of Blackstone Mountain (Remastered Version) Chapter 69: The Chamber of Secrets of Blackstone Mountain (11)
"This is the lower level of Blackstone Mountain?"
Drifting along the underground water veins, you will soon reach the lower area of Thorrison City, which is the core of the Black Iron Dwarves, where the royal family and nobles mainly live, and at the same time, the largest and best large forge of Thorrison City was built here, relying on the advantage of being close to the underground lava, it was once known as the best forging mecca on the continent of Entagri along with the great forge of Iron Forge.
But at this time, these areas that have created countless glories have become a paradise for elemental creatures, and the fire elementals brought to the continent of Entagre by Ragnaros regard this place as a new territory, and drive the Black Iron Dwarves captured by them to further expand the entire lower layer of the Blackstone Mountain, opening up all the areas of several layers, and finally becoming the current Molten Heart.
And their master, the fire elemental lord Ragnaros, sleeps at the bottom of the Molten Heart, and his most trusted lieutenant, the administrator Xsoltus, guards their master with the Legion of Flamewalkers, stopping the ambitions of the Black Dragon Legion time and time again.
Yu Bin's current location is near the entrance to a huge cavern, the pet of Ragnaros of Magmanda's caves, the residence of the ancient lava dog Magmanda, the two-headed lava dog who guards the place.
Further on, the Corridor of Flames, and through the Corridor, the Hall of Flames, guarded by Rusifron, a Naga-like elemental creature and the Black Dragon's first problem in entering the Heart of Molten, the loyal guard did his job well, not letting any of Nefarian's minions in.
Of course, Yu Bin will not go to trouble Rusifron, the Molten Heart is a more powerful area than the upper level of Blackstone Mountain, and it is full of heroic-level elemental creatures, even Rusifron, who is responsible for guarding the gate, is also an elemental lord who is about to enter the legendary level, which is the main reason why Nefarian has not been able to break through so far.
The other side of the Flame Corridor leads to the safer ruins of Thorrison, which is mostly occupied by elemental creatures, but is home to a large number of Black Iron Dwarves as slaves, including the former kings of the Black Iron Dwarves.
The path through the Flame Corridor is not smooth, the monsters here are mainly fire demons and flame runners, fire demons are elemental creatures produced by the soul of the dead black iron dwarves under the devouring of fire elements, and the flame runners are composed of burning lava, and the lower body is a mass of earth element fragments, when they move, these earth element fragments will continue to absorb the soil in front of them as a driving force for progress.
Compared to orcs and dwarves, these fire elemental creatures make Yu Bin feel even more disgusting, not only because their strength is stronger, but also because these elemental creatures basically have no so-called vital points, if you want to destroy them, you can only honestly reduce their health to zero, and the attack damage of these monsters is particularly high, and the damage to the armor is also greater, which makes them have to deal with these monsters more carefully.
Clearing all the way, Yu Bin turned into a fork in the road in the direction he remembered, which led to another separate area, which was the cell used by Russifron to hold his captives.
The one in charge of guarding the cell is the elemental lord Lokauer, although he calls himself the elemental lord, but in fact this guy is just a standard fire element, and his strength is only the seventh-order cap, and he has not yet become a hero, but because Lokauer's molten core is split from the molten core of Exsoltus, it can be regarded as a noble birth to get such an easy job.
The battle to eliminate Lokauer is not difficult, the seventh-order capped level can not cause absolute crushing except for reducing Yu Bin's damage a little, and the cell guards under Lokauer are even more vulnerable, and the cell guards composed of lava gallopers and flame walkers cannot play a role in blocking them at all, except for making Yu Bin waste more time.
Eventually, the two-meter-tall elemental lord Lokor collapsed in a cry of sorrow, and the fire elemental that made up his body dissipated, leaving only the molten core on the ground, except for a pair of fiery red bracers.
Bracers are flame guard bracers, in addition to extremely high fire resistance, it is to add good fire damage to attacks, and there is also a special effect of fire shock, the effect is that after every five attacks, the next attack will be accompanied by a fire shock, causing a certain amount of fire damage and stun to the target, and the effect depends on the target's fire resistance.
This piece of equipment is not a good thing, and its quality is only at the blue refinement level, so it is naturally not taken seriously by Yu Bin, and Yu Bin's purpose is not to level up and farm monsters, but to Lokauer's molten core.
It is very difficult for elemental creatures to die completely, even if their health is reduced to zero and their bodies dissipate, as long as their core is still intact, they can be resurrected by absorbing enough elemental power, as long as there are other fire elements to bring Lokauer's molten core back to Xotus, the elemental lord Lokauer can easily return to the world under the bath of the magma pool.
The reason why Yu Bin wants to kill Lokauer is for his molten core, although as an elemental lord, Lokauer is very unqualified, but as a cell guard, he can be regarded as dutiful, if he wants to open the prison here, the only key is Lokauer's molten core, in other words, any attempt to rescue must first cross over Lokauer's corpse.
With the key to open the cell, Yu Bin quickly found the person he was looking for, the black iron dwarf Frank Ron Cast Iron, who was imprisoned in the depths of the cell!
"Hello, Master Frank Ron!" Through the bars of the prison, Yu Bin woke up the dwarf who was sleeping in the corner.
Opening his increasingly cloudy eyes, the dwarf looked up, looked at it for a moment, and then lay back down without saying a word.
Yu Bin didn't care, although the dwarf in front of him was not a famous person, but any player who wanted to challenge the Molten Heart would not ignore his presence, as the architect who designed and supervised the construction of the Blackwing Lair, Frank Ron was an indispensable and important target in Yu Bin's adventure.
"Master Frank Ron, I bring you greetings from His Excellency Bigisus, the Great Craftsman!"
With a hula, Frank Ron, who was lying on the ground, turned over with lightning speed and pounced in front of Yu Bin: "You mean, Bytheus? ”
Perhaps it was because he had been imprisoned for too long, or perhaps because he had endured inhumane interrogation and torture, the former master builder had lost his lofty demeanor at all, and his voice was hoarse and low, and it was obvious that his vocal cords had received a lot of damage.
"Yes!" Yu Bin nodded, "For some purpose, I helped His Excellency Bysius liberate the enslaved dwarven craftsmen and miners, and now they are fighting against the tyranny of Dakisas. Fight bravely. ”
"Really? Is it? Frank Ron nodded, but soon turned into a dull look again, and his eyes were cloudy again, "But what's the use?" Even if Bytheus overthrew Dakisas, would they still be able to stand up to Nefarian and his Black Dragon Legion? ”
As the main figure in designing and overseeing the creation of the Blackwing's Lair, Frank Ron was well aware of Nefarian's power and had little hope in the Dwarven craftsmen's quest for freedom.
"Perhaps. But the Great Craftsman apparently didn't think so. Personally, I feel that there are times when freedom and dignity are worth the cost of life! ”
"It's ridiculous! Freedom, you say? Dignity? I heard these words from the mouth of a dead spirit! Mother Earth above, has the world gone mad during my time in captivity? ”
Yu Bin opened the cell door with the molten core: "For some common purpose, I don't mind providing some help to the Black Iron Dwarves. ”
"You can see it." Frank Ron, who walked out of the cell, glanced at Hago and the north wind not far away, the combination of the minotaur, the elves and the undead made the old dwarf a little confused, "So, what do you want from me, undead?" As you can see, I don't have the power to help you fight Nefarian right now. ”
"But you're the designer of the Blackwing's Lair, aren't you?" Yu Bin said with a smile, "I don't think anyone knows better than you how to get in there safely." ”
"Of course!" Frank Ron has great confidence in what he is best at, "But I don't think you can threaten the Black Dragon Prince, little one!" Even with your companions! ”
"You don't have to worry about this!" Yu Bin handed a long sword to Frank Ron, "I won't risk my life easily!" The Black Dragon Prince is not something I can compete with, and I don't want to be a hero, I just want to get some money from the treasury while His Royal Highness is busy dealing with the Flamewalker Legion. ”
Frank Ron raised his head and glanced at Yu Bin with strange eyes.
At this time, the little girl Anne rushed in: "Boss, it's not good! An enemy has rushed in! ”
"Enemies?"
"A dwarf named Kahlan Hammer, Rock Bone and Gore are stopping him, but that guy is very powerful, I'm afraid he won't be able to stop much time." Anne exclaimed.
"Master Frank Ron, I'm afraid we'll have to get out of here as soon as possible! My people can't deal with those Fire Elemental Elites! Yu Bin said in an anxious tone.
Frank Ron looked at the weapon in his hand, was silent for a while, and said, "It seems that fate is still unwilling to let me go!" This may also be the test that Mother Earth will put on me! Undead, what's your name? ”
"Greetings to Ice Whisper Dry Bone, Master!"
"Ice Whisper, Dry Bone! What a name that has no new ideas! Listen, little one! I used to think that Dakisas and Nefarian were the hope of the Black Iron Dwarves to retake the city of Sorison, so I designed the nest of Black Wings for them, but in the end I was betrayed by Dakisas, a vile and shameless scum, and if it weren't for the help of Byseus, I would have died at the hands of Nefarian! Frank Ron said as he walked forward, "I'd love to go to Blackwing's Lair with you and destroy Nefarion's ambitions with my own hands, but before I can do that, I have to do one thing first!" ”
"Do you mean, Karan Hammer?"
"Yes! Do you know who I hate the most in my life? ”
"Didn't he betray your Dakisas?"
"No, it's Kahran, the bastard! It was he who betrayed the entire Black Iron Dwarf, it was he who opened the protective barrier of Thorrisen City, it was he who was the first to take refuge in Ragnaros, and turned the entire Thorrison City into what it is now! Frank Ron suddenly shouted loudly, "I have to kill him, kill this disciple I taught with my own hands, this is my mission, and the only reason why I can live until now!" ”
For the dwarves' dead brains, Yu Bin has long since stopped having any extravagant hopes, and these stone heads don't think about the situation at all!
"Just now, I looked like I was about to see Hades, why did I suddenly become a dragon and a tiger now?" Beifeng looked at Frank Ron, who was striding towards the outside of the cell, and said in a low voice.
"Hatred has made this dwarf burst out with the last of its strength!" Hago sighed, "I didn't expect to be here to witness such a tragic end!" ”
Outside the cell, the two dwarves with opposite eyes made the north wind, who was eager to join the battle, choose to stand by, and Hago stopped Night Song who was trying to sneak attack: "Don't interfere, this may be the last battle in that dwarf's life!" ”
"Haha, Frank Ron, it's you! I thought these bedbugs had come here for that human, but I didn't expect you old guy to be ghosted! Karan Hammer was much younger than Frank Ron, and when he saw the old dwarf come out, he laughed loudly at the old dwarf with the sledgehammer in his hand.
"Karan, Mother Earth has finally given me a chance to atone for my sins! This time, I won't make the same mistake again! ”
The two dwarves didn't put any cannons on each other, and soon fought together with a scream, but as time went on, the situation soon turned in Karan's favor, and Frank Ron was imprisoned for too long and suffered a lot of physical damage.
"Die! You old thing! Karan Hammer seized the opportunity and kicked Frank Ron in the stomach, kicking the old dwarf to the ground, then raised his hammer and slammed it into the old dwarf's head.
The onlookers seemed to have seen the end of the old dwarf, and Hago even turned his head, unable to bear to watch the old dwarf have his head smashed.
Only Yu Bin saw the old dwarf's eyes that suddenly burst into bright light when he fell to the ground, and the years and pain did not make the old dwarf lose his tenacious will.
Kahlan's hammer didn't smash the old dwarf's head, and Frank Ron used his right hand in front of the hammer at the last minute, paying the price of one hand, and the old dwarf finally completed his revenge.
The long sword in his hand pierced Kalan's chest, and in Karan's incredible eyes, the old dwarf gently wiped the blood foam from the corner of Kalan's mouth: "I have hated your betrayal countless times, but what I hate even more is my harshness towards you, Karan, my most outstanding disciple, if it weren't for me, I'm afraid you wouldn't have done such a thing!" This is my sin, and I have to do it! You and I are both sinners of the Black Iron Dwarves, and there will be no place for us in Valhalla! ”
"Undead little one, come here! Come to me! Pushing Karan's body away, the old dwarf lay on the ground and said.
Yu Bin walked to his side and squatted down: "Please command!" ”
"As you can see, the only force that sustains me alive has completed his mission, and it's time for me to return to the arms of Mother Earth! Thank you for everything you did for me! Thank you for allowing me to complete redemption with my own hands! The glint in the old dwarf's eyes faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, "When I was betrayed by Dakisas and had to flee, I hid something, little one, go to the Blackstone Mine, and on the east side of the pit you can find a hidden path into the Blackwing's Lair, and that thing is hidden there!" Go ahead, whatever your purpose, I hope you make good use of it! ”
"Thank you for your help!"
Seeing the old dwarf close his eyes contentedly, the last trace of life breath completely dissipated from the old dwarf's body, Yu Bin motioned for the others to bury the bodies of the old dwarf and Karan, and then walked to Anne's side.
"Well done! Kitten! ”
"Hey, hey! Lucky for me, this idiot is right in the same spot you told me to come after me as soon as I heard me say that someone was trying to save Frank Ron! ”
