"Goddess Lofe sent an angel down to study the ecology of the dwarves she had created. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info found a dwarf A and asked, what is your daily life, and he said to drink and sleep and beat Doudou. Asked the same question to Dwarf B, he said that he drank and slept and beat Beanie. Finally, the angel finds Dwarf C, who says to drink and sleep. Angel Qidao, why not hit Doudou? Because I'm Doudou! ”

"Am I Doudou? …… Hahaha! I'm Doudou! ”

"Kill me...... Eh, my belly, my stomach! The dwarves continued to roll around like a bunch of large round barrels being pushed around.

Even a middle-aged dwarven uncle next to him, the Lord of Molten Hammer Ridge, one of the six royal descendants, Dockby? Stinger's expression froze for less than five seconds, and then he laughed more joyfully than any dwarf.

By the way, the nickname and nickname of this dwarven lord is "Doudou". The big names in the Craftsmen's Guild were on a par with him, and many of them called him that.

So, what's so funny about such an old terrier?

Pallas, the goddess of wisdom, asked the goddesses Mara and Lofe why they had made the dwarves like this. The goddess said that if the heavenly palace is destroyed and collapses, there are Titans on top, followed by high elves and humans, no matter what, dwarves will live the longest! ”

“…… Poof, wahahaha! So that's it, that's how it is! This is indeed a gift from the goddess! ”

"I have never been so proud of our size as I am today! Genius! Lu Xi? Berencaster, you really are the best funny genius I've ever met! Hahahaha......"

So, are you dwarves laughing and having three views that are very different from ordinary people, or are you just shaking M?

Well, the dwarves are indeed a bold race that is very willing to express their feelings frankly, whether it is happiness, sadness, or anger, something that Lu Xi has known for a long time. Of course, they are also very good at regulating their moods, not really stupid and naïve like children, but simply disdain to put on a pretentious appearance in front of trusted relatives and friends. In fact, in the real world, the number of mercenaries and adventurers who have been pitted by dwarven traitors disguised as master craftsmen and used bad-quality whiteboard equipment is actually quite large.

Of course, the appearance of being as frank and excessive as the current one still makes Lu Xi, who has experienced a hundred battles, a little uncomfortable. He had envisioned the art style of Mithril Palace and Hall of Glory, and had considered almost everything that would happen when he was at odds with the dwarves, but he had never imagined that it would become such a joke convention.

So, embarrassed, he decided to talk about business first: "I think ah, we ...... when we start spring next year."

"You should have come up with some more whimsical proposals, but in the end you can make a lot of money, right?" The Shining Cave Lord, who was most likely to become the Duke of Hearthcastle, interrupted Lu Xi with a smile, and he looked directly into the latter's eyes and said in a somewhat muddy tone, "Tell me, Heir of Orucello, you can't be begging for anything, right?" ”

"Of course I would like your help, but certainly not begging." Lu Xi smiled: "I don't cheat friends, even if you want to invest something in advance, you will definitely get a double return." ”

"Well, I believe you." Oyin, the lord of Black Lock Mountain City? Old Man Ingvar nodded and said, "At least there is a precedent to support this. ”

…… Yes, you've been the entire Minas Cave at the beginning of spring this year, and more than half of the Crypt Lords and their treasures have become the spoils of the coalition forces, and you've already made a lot of money. Now, it's obvious that you've tasted the sweetness and want to invest a second time, right?

"Well, I'm willing to believe you! Lu Xi? Lin Ge? Belencaster! "Golden Bolt? Muradine III, a friend in front of Mr. Orucello, patted Lu Xi on the shoulder: "Just like I trusted your teacher back then." However, you have to convince everyone present to do what we need to do......"

"I thought it would be enough to convince you."

"I'm not a prince yet." The old dwarf said, "Even if I really become a prince, I can't become Gaius, or your little princess Chiyanji...... Well, Empress Caterina is like that, and I am the powerful emperor of the country. To put it bluntly, this is actually a specialty of your human race. ”

"Tsk, what a useless king!"

Golden Bolt? Muraldin III did not hear it, and after taking a large sip of wine, he said in a tone that was as relaxed as if chattering: "Besides, I am not ready to ascend the throne of the prince. ”

"...... "Okay, a gold medal luxury salesman said dryly to a wife for a morning, and finally made the other party feel moved to accept and was ready to pay for it, however, this beautiful lady spread her hands helplessly and said: I can't do a penny of the family's money, let alone buy luxury goods."

Well, although this metaphor is a bit out of tune, it does reflect Lu Xi's mood at this moment.

"I'm old, I'm too old and don't have much energy, and I won't be able to sit on the Mithril Throne for long. Isn't it troublesome to have to change people after a few decades? Rather than that, it's better to choose one in the prime of life. Of course, all of the above are excuses. Above all, Orucello discovered the guiding force, which, as you said, is the power to usher in a new era, the light of hope that shines on the whole new world. What else can he be used in is actually the one thing that I care about the most. ”

“…… Oh yes? Are you ready to give way to your children and grandchildren? Lu Xi asked with a smile.

"I have six sons and twenty-eight grandsons, some of whom can be master craftsmen, some of whom can be legendary rune mages and warriors, and some of whom can lead troops against enemies thousands of miles away." The old dwarf lord held his head high triumphantly, apparently quite proud of his educational ability and the number of children and grandchildren.

Lu Xi congratulated: "Well, I've seen it!" At least your granddaughter is interesting! How about supporting Miss Amy as the next prince? If the dwarven king of the Hearthburgh also produces a queen, the political arena of this world will be in a state of prosperity and decline for a long time...... However, it should be a lot of fun. ”

"Ha, dwarves have never had a queen in history. But who knows what the future holds? The old dwarf laughed noncommittally: "In addition to me, there are many wonderful young people in the rest of the family." If you can really get the most prestige and recognition on the battlefield, that's the right thing, right? Little one, that's your most desperate hope, right? ”

Lu Xi spread his hands and smiled. I'm not ready to hide it, and of course I don't mind being broken by the other party.

"If it were you, I wouldn't have to worry about it, the army of dwarves stepping out of the castle would be a fruitless labor." The old dwarf muttered, "However, the others only know that you are a disciple of Orucello, and you have brought back the seal of the Lord of Hearth, plus the people who have defeated Kildeka. Friends, and allies and partners, these are two different things at all. ”

"Hey...... I understand your consciousness, old man, that is what I am here for. Convincing people or something, that's what I do best. ”

"Yet, you have come today to drink, my friend! This is the Hearth Castle, and today is the first day of the Oktoberfest! "Golden Bolt? For the first time, Muradin III used the words "my friend" instead of "my friend's junior" to refer to Lu Xi, which made the latter stunned for a second, and then realized what this meant.

"For us dwarves, first fulfill our obligations as friends, and then talk about our obligations as allies and partners. The fact that we have laid everything down in front of you today would have meant that, at least for today, we were just entertaining a trusted friend. "Oyin? Ingvar laughed: "The friendship of the dwarves, by fists, has relied on wine. ”

"So, not only can't we talk about business today, but it's another rhythm of not getting drunk and not going home?" Lu Xi smiled helplessly.

"Do as the locals do." Golden Bolt? Muradin smiled and said, "You see that there is no table over there, I am sure they must not have you to drink, but they are much happier than you." ”

Lu Xi turned his head to look, and then he did see a few humans in the middle of a large group of dwarves. In this Hall of Hammer of Glory, the presence of humans is certainly very conspicuous. What's more, these people were all dressed as nobles of the Auckland court, dressed in a dignified manner, but they hooked up with the dwarf next to them, laughed loudly, and gulped wine. The Auckland-style model of etiquette is, of course, nothing more than a floating cloud.

One of the Auckland aristocrats -- actually doesn't look like Auckland. His skin was dark, his beard was completely devoid, his round head was like a light source, and his face was full of a humble and sensible smile, like a soft and warm dough - it could be seen that this was a very elegant but also very kind "honest man", and he was naturally quite eye-catching in a large group of rough men.

However, sitting in the midst of a group of dwarves, this amiable round-faced uncle did not seem particularly disagreeable, and he was also drinking wine and eating meat with the big bowls around him, as if he was enjoying the current state very much.

He felt Lu Xi's eyes, turned his head to look at him, then picked up the big wine glass and made a toast from afar.

"Oh? That's interesting. Lu Xi raised his glass and returned a salute. Although Lu Xi has only met the other party once, he remembers his identity, and believes that the other party must know him.

"That's Mr. Varus...... What is Auckland's court governor doing here? ”

"He is the former head of the court, and now he is one of the privy councillors of the Oakland Empire, a sword-wielding baron, but unfortunately his main job is to cheat and drink with me. Look, isn't this just for the Oktoberfest! Old man Muradin blinked his eyes and began to talk nonsense in a natural tone: "Don't look at me like that, at least people are coming to me to cheat and cheat now." You have to learn from this lovely gentleman, let go of your tasks, let go of your responsibilities, let go of your pressure, and let go of the gloom in your heart. My little friends, at least for now, are enjoying this great festival with all their hearts. I know you still have pain and knots in your heart, but what is the point of being alive if you can't even laugh? ”

It's really a pot of white chicken soup with little salt and sauce, and I'm a little embarrassed myself. However, I still had to drink it in one gulp.

At least I'm alive now, aren't I?

Lu Xi drank the beer in one sip...... Tsk, sure enough, there are a lot of impurities, the fermentation is not complete, and it seems to be subtly pantothenic, compared to what islands and flowers are really far worse! Why don't you think about changing the process and opening a brewery in the furnace castle?
