【Underground Furnace Castle】

Descend the metal staircase.

In an instant, the air was hot in excess of 50°C.

A large amount of lava flowed in the furnace area, and its scale was by no means comparable to the blacksmith section of the large manor, and it was not at all a level.

The lava flowing here is enough to reach the level of a river

Hundreds of black iron pillars emerge from the bottom of the lava and connect to the top of the furnace to support this underground area.

Oooooooo......oo

The incessant sound of striking iron echoed in the air.

Tens of thousands of muscular blacksmiths, dressed only in leather aprons, were pounding metal on their iron drills.

As soon as Han Dong stepped here, he was shocked by the scale of the [Underground Furnace Castle].

As far as the eye could see, there was no end to the lava flow, and the black iron column continued like this.

With such a great project, although Han Dong was born as a cytologist, he can also imagine how much effort it took to build this underground furnace fort.

This furnace fortress is like a vital organ of the Holy City.

"This scale...... Feel like the furnace is bigger than the school boundary? Besides, there are a lot of blacksmiths down there who aren't trainee knights, right? ”

Wen Li explains:

"Uh-huh! The vice-captain was right, the furnace castle did not belong to the school in the first place, and its overall area occupied almost half of the [second floor].

In addition to being a learning area for our blacksmith apprentices, it is also an important military base in the Holy City.

All blacksmiths who have obtained the "Forging Certificate" will come to the Underground Fort to contribute their part to the industry of the Holy City.

All of the Quds' homegrown gear comes from here. ”

"That's how it is...... Wen Li, is your blacksmith room far away? ”

"It's not far away, I'm in this area covered by the school.

It was because of Master that I was able to get a private blacksmith shop.

After all, most of the people who do this job are men, and I often meet people who harass me, and although I can beat them away with one punch, it still affects my studies.

If you can have your own room, you can avoid these influences. ”

"Normal."

Wen Li's appearance is not bad, and it can even be said to be at the middle and upper level.

Moreover, although the muscles are not beautiful, there are still curves.

When it comes to development, Wen Li is not bad at all. Han Dong could see that Wen Li wrapped her upper body in a bandage, pressing her 'characteristics' as much as possible to reduce the 'burden' on her body during the forging period.

In a place where the ratio of men to women is 5,000:1, it is strange not to be harassed.

Han Dong covered his whole body in a "bird's beak doctor costume" to avoid unnecessary trouble.

But in the process of following Wen Li forward, he could still feel a lot of hostile gazes.

It's like, as a college student, you happen to know a girl who is studying physics or mechanics.

During class, when you deliberately went to the classroom to chat with this girl intimately, you should be able to understand Han Dong's current feelings.

A group of muscular men can pounce at any time, man on man.

Han Dong was on guard throughout the whole process, always feeling that there would be a big battle.

After a while, he came to the blacksmith's room that belonged to Wen Li alone.

The arc-shaped building structure covers an area of about 20 square meters...... The exterior is made of a metal cover and iron nails, and a symbolic metal chimney merges with the blacksmith's room.

The door is opened by means of a long key and a hydraulic valve.

The moment the iron door opened, a wave of heat came.

Due to the furnace inside, the temperature in Wenli's blacksmith's room was nearly 70°C.

If it weren't for the crow costume to isolate the temperature, Han Dong himself would definitely not be able to stand such a high temperature, and most of the plague in his body would be inactivated.

"Wen Li...... Do you live here every day? ”

"That's right, the master won't let me live in the dormitory, and the daily forging and learning tasks are very heavy...... It's also a time saver to live here. ”

Such an extreme environment is simply impossible for ordinary students to bear.

Moreover, as Wen Li's room, there is no decoration that a girl should have...... There are quite a few shields and weapons hanging on the walls.

And the iron kang without any cushion in the corner is Wen Li's bed.

Recalling Wen Li's special background (when she was a baby, her father handed her over to her current master, and it is estimated that she began to work in the blacksmith's room at the age of five).

Staring at Wen Li's cute and innocent smile, Han Dong was actually a little emotionally touched.

"Wen Li."

"Vice-Captain?"

"Did your master say that? When are you going to be sent to Destiny Space? ”

As soon as she said this, Wen Li immediately looked a little embarrassed.

"Hmm...... Actually, I was going to talk to the vice-captain about it. The master asked me to participate in the next time, which is the [Destiny Space] in a month's time.

I don't know, vice-captain...... There is no availability. ”

"Exactly."

Wen Li didn't understand the meaning of 'just right' at first, and after a while, she immediately hugged Han Dong excitedly.

Click......

With such a gentle hug, Han Dong felt that his shoulder blades seemed to be misaligned.

"I'm sorry ......"

"It's fine." Han Dong uses fungi to help immediately restore the misaligned bones.

"That...... Vice Captain, who else is in our team? ”

"I'm not decided, I'll ask my former friends.

If they don't have the right time, I'll contact Captain Abel again, or call Mia as well.

It's best to form a team of four. ”

"Good...... Vice-captain, you can arrange it, and I will do my best to help. ”

Wen Li bowed directly at 90°, and even tears were rolling in her eyes.

Due to her master's decision, Wen Li has never officially gone to [Destiny Space], and she is timid...... As time passed, my heart even felt fear and fear of the strange fate space full of evil spirits.

At present, Han Dong can take her for the first 'first experience', and most of the fear hovering in Wen Li's heart has disappeared.

"That's right! Let's talk about the vice-captain's equipment first! ”

"Don't rush ......"

Han Dong suddenly opened the "Little Demon Eye".

After inspecting all corners of the blacksmith's room in detail and making sure that no one was eavesdropping, he asked about the second and most important thing he had found Wen Li today.

"Wen Li, do you remember the Raven Man?"

"Of course I do!"

Han Dong handed Wen Li a detailed information page about the "Raven Man", "Can you design and build a piece of equipment that fits the Raven Man according to the Raven Man's physical characteristics?"

External, inline, or exoskeleton equipment is acceptable. ”

"Raven Man...... I don't have any experience in this area, so I'll have to take a closer look...... However, if it is the vice-captain's request, I will definitely try to achieve it. ”

"Well, try to think of a piece of equipment that works best for the Ravens...... If I think it's good, I might try batch forging. ”

That's when it happened.

A scorching breath spilled through the crack in the door.

What's coming...... And, it seems, angry.
