059 The Tale of the Dwarven Ruins

When Green and Sei set off for the White Harbor Kingdom, Kist and Ferda remained in the Elven Kingdom.

In the past few days, Xiao Han has taken Feida to practice elven archery and martial arts, and Chester found that the elf race really likes to practice martial arts, even if it is a little elf child, they shoot each other with a pair of small bows and arrows there to play with nothing. Captain Ficcio, an adult samurai, will come to the martial arts arena when he has nothing to do, and compete with others for two games.

Seeing that Feida was also here, Captain Fizio also watched with interest for a while, and stepped forward from time to time to personally guide one or two.

Feida really got her mother's good genetics, in the words of Captain Ficcio, her talent even surpasses that of most purebred elves, and at her current age, she is the best age for elves to practice martial arts, so Feida's entry into the mirror is very fast.

During her escape from San Jose with Lolita, Feida had been using a human one-handed sword, which she felt was a good fit for herself. Captain Fizio, after seeing it, silently stopped Feida from using the long sword again, "Our elven martial arts pay attention to agility and agility, and most of the elven warriors are elite archers, so we all pay attention to the combination of far and near." ”

Feida didn't quite understand: "I know about long-range attacks, I have been practicing the elven bow and arrow, but at the same time, I can use a one-handed sword with a bow and arrow on my back, and some of them can't be used." ”

Captain Ficcio laughed, "Of course, how can elves use human weapons, throw away your one-handed sword, we elves use this." ”

As he spoke, Ficcio walked to the weapon rack on the side of the arena and pulled out a strangely shaped weapon, its shape was quite weird.

Feida's eyes widened, "Captain Fizio, this, isn't this a ring!"

Fizio raised the weapon and made a gesture to fight, but Feida smirked and dodged, embarrassed hehehehe.

"This is called a war blade, it is a steel ring made of stainless steel, and the surrounding circle is a sharp spike with an open blade, you see the grip of this opening, this special angle, is suitable for our elves' flexible joint force, so that the suddenness of the attack can be greatly increased. ”

"Oh, that's right. Feida muttered.

Kester, who was listening to the side, laughed in his heart, and said that Feida must not have understood. But he was embarrassed to say it, and continued to look at Ferda and Ficcio, one talking stupidly and the other stupidly listening.

However, Captain Fizio also seemed to see that Feida did not understand well, and betrayed Feida with his crimson cheeks. So Ficcio loudly asked Feda to throw away the one-handed sword in his hand, and handed over the blade for Feda to try.

When he got the battle blade, Feida immediately felt that it was different, this weapon seemed to be designed for elves by nature. I danced a few moves casually, and it really fit very well. Happy, the original one-handed sword was thrown on the ground and ignored it.

Chester reluctantly picked up the one-handed sword and silently stroked the hilt of the sword, "Broken heart, broken heart, good luck, you are also a long-famous Tsesilver long sword, just thrown aside, it's really a tyrannical thing, tsk." ”

Of course, the three people in the room couldn't hear Koster's own talk.

At the end of the day's practice, at the suggestion of Ficio, several people came to the elf tavern "Wind Chimes in the Forest" in the city of Nosilio, which provides various fruit wines and food brewed by the elves, which is very popular with the elves.

Koxter and Ferda have tasted this elf fruit wine many times in the past few days, and to be honest, it has a different flavor compared to the wine tequila that Carman is famous for.

While drinking, Kerst suddenly thought of something, he poked Ficchio, "Captain Ficchio, your battle blade, I just saw it, the steel material used is really good, I didn't expect that your elf's smelting skills are also so superb." ”

Ficchio drank a lot, he listened to Chester's words, thought about it carefully, and then lowered his voice, "Actually, these are not our techniques. ”

"Ahh

"Caster, do you know what race lived in the Misty Forest?"

"I heard from the guide that this was the domain of the dwarves in the past. Kerst replied.

"Not bad. "The Misty Forest used to be a huge barren hill under which the Dwarven kingdom was established, and a large amount of black iron ore was buried underground. Legend has it that they hollowed out the ground, refined the mined black iron ore into a massive amount of molten iron, and forged a steel dungeon with refined black iron. ”

"Is that city still there?" Kerst wondered.

"When the elf king came, he was still there, but the entrance collapsed and I couldn't get in. The Elven King said that the lament of the dwarves is the greatest tragedy of the Magic Empire, and since their city has also disappeared, let this tragic history disappear with this barren hill. ”

"Gone, didn't find a way to get in?" Kerst pouted, "What a pity." ”

Captain Fizio picked up his glass and took a sip of red fruit wine, "The Great Elf King has always been compassionate, but the other Elf Elders are very realistic. In fact, we have sent many elven expeditions one after another, sneaking into the dwarven ruins through some collapsed tunnels, bringing out some stockpiles of concentrate and molded weapons, which we re-smelted and made into elven-style weapons, which is how you see the warblades. ”

It dawned on Kster that this was the case. Suddenly, he felt someone poke him in the arm, and when he turned around, he realized that it was Feida.

"Kerster, do you want to go to the dwarven ruins, let's go find a few weapons and send them back to Lolita and Xiao Mu, can we?"

Koster's eyes lit up, and he whispered to Ficcio's ear: "Is there any danger in the ruins?"

Ficchio smiled slightly, raised his head and drank the wine in his hand, "You are not the first people to have this idea, but for the sake of Fayda's face, I will take you on a trip personally, how about it?"

Feida cheered, "Great!"

Early the next morning, Feida and Kerter found that Ficcio was already wearing a battle suit (Note 1) and was waiting outside the house with the female elf named Xiaohan.

"Let's go, let's go to the dwarf ruins, Xiao Han will go with us, and she will also look for a weapon. ”

A group of four, led by Captain Ficcio, walked out of the city. As he walked, Ficcio explained to a few people: "The elves have excavated the dwarven ruins many times, and they have directly entered it three times, so they are quite familiar with the situation inside. In fact, many elves like to go to the dwarven ruins to find their personal weapons when they are adults, in which, in addition to bows and arrows, you can find various types of weapons, and even if you don't have them, you can take back the concentrate and re-smelt them. ”

The entrance to the Dwarven Ruins, outside the city of Nosilio, in the northwest corner of the Misty Forest, about two miles from the Grand Canyon, in a large dense jungle. The fog in the entire Misty Forest, with the exception of the vicinity of Nosilio, was the thickest in this vicinity.

Ficcio opened the way, and the other three followed him, unlike the "guiding star" who had a guide on the way to Nosilio, this part of the journey was even more eerie, the forest was completely devoid of sunlight, and it was filled with thick fog, and it was impossible to see the surroundings a little farther away.

Feida and Kerter followed behind Fizio, and Xiaohan stood guard behind him. In the depths of the misty forest, there are not many outsiders except for a few hermits who have been recognized by the elves, but this terrifying environment makes people feel palpitations.

The journey to the dwarven ruins was not very far, and after walking for about half a day, Ficcio pointed to a small gentle slope ahead, "Just behind that gentle hill, the entrance, we will be there in a moment." ”

Koster put his hand on the pergola and looked at it, "I can't see how big it can be down there." ”

Ficcio laughed, "I really can't see it, but after you go down, I'm afraid you'll regret your words." ”

Feida and Xiaohan laughed as they ate on the side.

Kester did regret it, since others called this the Dwarven Kingdom, of course the city of the Dwarven Kingdom would not be small.

Behind the gentle slope there is a very hidden hole, and in a large pile of bushes, at the base end of a huge tree with two people hugging, a tree hole, is shaded by shrubs. Ficcio walked under the tree, reached out and pushed, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Kerst followed, pushing away the bushes.

The hole is not large, and it is not known whether it was a natural formation of trees or a later excavation. Entering the entrance of the cave, Kerst was short, the cave was not high, there was a downward staircase, Chester went down more than a hundred steps, and then felt that he was stepping on solid ground.

Ficcio's voice came from the front, "This ladder was set up by the elven expedition, and this passage should be a mine abandoned by the dwarves before. In the process of growing, the root system opened this hole, and later, an elf who didn't know whether he was unlucky or lucky, accidentally fell into this tree hole. ”

Kerst followed Ficcio all the way forward, and sure enough, it was an abandoned mine, with traces of digging on both sides, and the pit was not high, and Chester had to keep his head down. Ficcio walked in front, holding a cage with a glowing green light in his hand, and when he looked closely, there were actually dozens of guiding stars inside, gathered together to emit light.

Kester was convinced in his heart, these elves really had the ability to come up with this kind of light source. Feida and Xiaohan also followed and went down to the pit.

The four of them walked for a while, and as they felt that after about half an hour of going underground, KΓΆster clearly felt the width of the pit widen, and then it suddenly opened up before them, and they entered an even wider pit.

This pit is in the shape of a huge pit, surrounded by a gentle slope of layers and mountains, each layer is about ten degrees, several people are drilled out of the middle of the pit, and there are more than ten such holes on the edge of each layer of the pit nearby.

"Wow, Feida, who had just come out of the hole, looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but exclaim, she had never seen such a magnificent mine. ”

"Don't get too excited, it's just a dwarf mine. "Let's go up to the top floor and see what's in front of us, don't blame me for not reminding you, maybe you'll never see the kind of spectacular buildings you'll see later, don't blink." ”

Koster and Ferda looked at each other, and involuntarily looked up at the top of the mine, where there was a wooden staircase that led to the top of the mine.

Note 1: Battle suits, the daily clothes of elves, are also mainly various types of robes. And the elven guards, for the convenience of movement, mainly wear short clothes, in order to increase defense, there are hollow carved armor on the chest, which is generally called a battle suit.
