Chapter 803: Dimensional Maze (Asking for a monthly pass, asking for a subscription, asking for a recommendation)
In any case, Witherland's plan was in vain anyway, but Witherland was not too frustrated, in fact, when this plan was proposed, Witherland knew that this plan was likely not to work, no way, they themselves were fine, the biggest problem was Solam.
What Soram can think of, of course they also think, this kind of thing is too eye-catching, if Soram really agrees, then he will definitely not die with those forces who have been pitted. Solam's refusal was also reasonable, no one would want to be remembered by the Cult of the Evil God.
They would say this, but in fact, they also had the idea of what if, what if Soram really agreed for the sake of justice? Besides, they are not so bad, and when the time comes, they will also take care of Solam. It's just that everyone knows in their hearts that this kind of care is not omnipotent, and if there is really something to do, they can only express their condolences. But what about sacrifice for the sake of justice? I don't know how many warriors who pursue justice pay their lives every year, and Doshoram is nothing.
In their opinion, if such a thing were to happen, Solamna would have died a well-deserved death.
In fact, this is also where Soram is angry, you like to sacrifice, you go, I didn't stop you, but why did you let me sacrifice, I'm not the same as you! It's like those dog lovers who have to force others not to eat dogs, as if eating dog meat is a heinous crime, and even force others not to sell dog meat. I don't know what the logic is, if you like dogs, you like dogs, why should you care about others? The law has not allowed you to eat dog meat, what do you care? He also puts himself in a high place and imposes his values on others with a strong sense of superiority.
Solam asked, "Why do you?" You think that it is right and noble to sacrifice yourself against evil, so why do you want me to sacrifice yourself? I don't know what to do! I'm not a believer in a good god!
In short, after Soram drove these grandsons away, he was angry to death, and at the same time made up his mind that he must leave quickly! When the transaction is completed, run away and go to Silvermoon City!
****************
Witherland's movements were fast, and in the early morning of the next day, he came to Solam's mansion again, and he also wanted to hurry up and make a deal, Soram had already given an ultimatum, and he didn't want an accident.
Soram didn't feel sorry for him, and he didn't say anything about yesterday's events. It's the same with Witherland, Solam's behavior yesterday has fully demonstrated that Solam and them are not all the way, and they have no intention of saying more.
So don't say it at all, Solam is not the kind of person who can rely on words to convince, so it is better to save some effort.
Witherland led Solam to a corner on the first floor of the Walkin Mall, a dead alley with no other features than dirt. Solam was about to ask Wetherland what he was doing with him, when he was startled by a sudden figure.
I saw a garbage heap in the corner of the alley suddenly explode, and an old dwarf crawled out of it. The old dwarf had dark red messy hair, and he didn't even tidy up his beard, which the dwarves valued most, and it was messy, and it was covered with dirt, which should have been uncared for for a long time, and it was all clumped......
The beard is a symbol of the dwarf! In dwarven customs, only a beard that exceeds the navel can be considered an adult. In fact, dwarves start to grow beards as soon as they are born, well, both men and women, so don't be surprised when you see one or two bearded dwarves together, it doesn't have to be a ji, maybe it's really a normal pair of lovers......
It is also because all the people grow beards, so the beard is the most cherished body part of the dwarves, and in the eyes of the dwarves, if the beard is shaved off, it will be a great shame. Dwarves can not bathe, they may not be clothed, and they may not even care about their hair, but their beards must definitely be carefully cared for, and even if a dwarf is down, he will regularly clean his beard. There is a saying that the head can be broken and the blood can flow, and the hairstyle cannot be messed up, this sentence is extremely applicable to dwarves, but the hairstyle should be changed to a beard.
And this dwarf ...... Nima, it's all lumpy, how long has it been since I washed it?
In fact, if it weren't for this dwarf's muscular muscles and stocky build, Soram would have suspected that this thing was a kobold or a goblin, after all, this guy is so dirty and smelly! It's too much out of line with the dwarven customs.
"He's the guy you said he was?" The dwarf didn't care about Solam's disgust, but asked Witherland very calmly.
"Yes, that's him." When Witherland saw the dwarf in front of him, he also tugged at the corners of his mouth, although this dwarf was also sloppy before, but it was really rare to be sloppy like this. So he wondered why he did it the way he did.
"What are you doing here? We haven't seen each other for a few days. ”
The dwarf touched his beard and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, something has happened recently, and I've been working for the past few days, so I don't have time to take care of it." ”
It's a miracle that a person can get so dirty in a few days. But before Wesselland could say anything, the dwarf turned and walked straight into the garbage heap, without any explanation, except for the sentence: "Follow me!" ”
Seeing this, Soram hesitated a little, didn't he come to upgrade his warhammer? Do you want to drill a garbage heap for Mao?
If you don't see Witherland pinching his nose and following up, he is not hypocritical, but it is just a garbage heap, so what, when he used to hunt, Solam didn't wipe feces on his face every day. As long as you can upgrade the warhammer, it's nothing.
Solam followed them into the garbage heap, and when he pushed the garbage away, he realized that there was still a hole in it, there was a small stone room with a graduated handle in the corner of the room.
As soon as Soram stood still, the dwarf pulled down the handle, and immediately the entrance behind Soram was closed by a stone wall. Then the room began to tremble, and then there was a sound of wheels scratching the railroad tracks.
Soram found himself in an elevator or something, but he didn't expect the dwarf to be very good at playing. There is such an advanced thing. In fact, that's nothing in a dwarven city.
Dwarven cities are all underground, consisting of numerous underground passages that would have exhausted the dwarves if they had not been able to move on their own short legs. After all, dwarves build cities, and they always come how big they are, how grand they are. Therefore, this kind of movement with rails is very common in dwarven cities.
It's just that this dwarf is definitely not an easy task to move this kind of facility to Ascotka, and if nothing else, just say that these passages are enough of a headache.
"Bang!" Just as Soram was wondering how the dwarf had dug out these passages, the sound of boulders colliding suddenly interrupted Solam's thoughts. Then there was a click of winch, chains, and gears, which gave Soram the illusion of entering a machine.
Seeing Soram looking around, the dwarf turned to Solam and said, "Don't be nervous, it's just a realignment of the passage." ”
"Channel reorganization?" Solam looked at Witherland in confusion, and it turned out that Witherland also looked uncertain.
Seeing that these two men were stupid, the dwarf explained, "It is that the passage we are walking on now has begun to change, and if anyone looks again from the place where they have just entered, they will find that there is nothing there." ”
"You mean, it's a dimensional maze?!!!"
The dwarf was also a little surprised when he heard Solam's words, but he didn't expect Soram to know about the dimensional maze. "Yes, this is the dimensional maze."
The so-called dimensional maze is actually a defensive measure of the dwarves, which is not well-known among humans, but it is very famous among the dark elves and some races that have enmity with the dwarves. This type of defense is specifically aimed at underground passages, and dwarven cities usually build the main passages outside the city.
The dwarves would divide the mountain or underground where the passage was located into highly sophisticated and intricate quadrangular rooms, which looked like a giant Rubik's cube as a whole. And each quad of this "Rubik's Cube" can move up and down, left and right.
Dwarves can override these quads to make the passage disappear or reappear in another place. More quads are filled with traps, and once an enemy strikes through the passage, the dwarves can surround them through a maze and then use traps or force to eliminate the invaders.
And more importantly, the Maze of Dimensions is not made using magic, it is completely made by the hands of the dwarves.
Soram would know about this kind of thing, completely when he was bragging about it with the dwarves in Port Carlin, and Soram really thought it was bragging B, but he didn't expect it to be real. Soram suddenly felt that the dwarven technology seemed a little bit sloppy.
This kind of thing can be built. But this dwarf in front of him seems to be even more dicked, he actually built this thing in Askatrari! Not to be found yet! It's nothing short of a miracle!
On the other hand, Witherland seemed to be listening to a book from heaven, and he didn't know what the two of them were talking about. This is not to blame for Witherland, because the dwarven race is still a bit xenophobic by nature, and they rarely let outsiders into their cities if they don't have to. They are also secretive about their own cities, and always seem to be on guard against the idea of others attacking dwarven cities. This may have something to do with the dwarves' greed for money.
Dwarves like to dig mines and tunnels, for the sake of forging is one thing, and on the other hand, because dwarves have a mysterious pursuit of wealth. They like to dig up gold, precious stones, and all kinds of rare metals from the ground, but they don't like to trade unless it's for food or wine. (This is the case in most dwarven kingdoms, only a few dwarves like to trade arms with humans to gather wealth)
Dwarves don't like to spend money, and even in the eyes of many humans, they are very picky. They prefer to pile up the gold and silver treasures in the city's treasury rather than spend them, and it seems that they will be satisfied only when these gold and silver treasures are piled up.
So dwarven cities often mean a lot of wealth! In order to prevent others from beating the idea of these treasures, the dwarves rarely mentioned their cities to others. It is also because of this that few people in the outside world have heard of the Dwarven Dimensional Maze.
