It has been two months since the convoy of the Ovite Kingdom left the city of Enicanste, the capital of the Eloda Empire. On this day, the convoy arrived at Banyas, the capital of the central province of the Eloda Empire, Beni Haqd. This is already the edge of the Flower Language Prairie, and it is not far from the entrance to the Hundred Beasts Plain where the astrologers of the Ovite Kingdom divined.

And Arthur, who has been sullen, has slowly regained his former vigor after self-adjustment during this period of time. In order to prepare for entering the Hundred Beast Plains, the convoy, which had been sleeping in the open for more than half a month, began to enter the city for repairs under the orders of Duke Hendris.

As a foreign envoy, the convoy was naturally warmly received by the Governor of Benihaqd Province, Gustanford Derrick. Although he was very resistant to attending this kind of welcome banquet again, as a prince, Arthur reluctantly participated in it, so as not to cause other trouble.

For three days after attending the banquet, Arthur closed his door, claiming that he was ill and refused to accept all guests. In fact, it is to prepare for entering the Hundred Beasts Plain.

According to the astrologer's divination results, the entrance to the Hundred Beasts Plains will appear near the city of Banyas in seven days. At that time, it will only take two days to arrive, so you must recharge your batteries in the remaining days.

On the third day of entering Banyas City, Arthur, who had been in the inn for two days, walked out of the inn and into the street.

After entering the Hundred Beast Primordial Awakening Guardian Spirit, the convoy will speed up and return to the Ovite Kingdom, and it will definitely not stay in Banyas City for a long time. But the gifts for Princess Caterina and her playmate Joseph had not yet been bought. Thinking that the day of Joseph's coming-of-age ceremony was getting closer, Arthur had already decided what kind of gift he would bring to Joseph.

Arthur, who had been searching the street for a long time, came to a blacksmith shop, where two figures, one large and one small, were shirtless, wielding the hammer in their hands, and regularly striking the long sword that had begun to take shape on the anvil. Beside the two, there was a sturdy, dark-skinned man who rhythmically pushed and pulled the bellows to ensure that the flames of the red-hot coals burned evenly.

Arthur stood in front of the blacksmith and watched the blacksmith breathe evenly for a long time, and the blacksmith also concentrated on striking the iron for a long time. The two sides have a tacit understanding and do not disturb each other. Until the last quenching, a puff of smoke rose from the longsword, which had been burned to a fiery red body, stimulated by the cold water. Arthur looked at the originally rough sword embryo and already had the appearance of a sharp sword.

"This guest, but you want to buy a weapon?" asked Arthur, the blacksmith who had finally hammered the sword embryo aside, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked Arthur.

Through the bent light of the heat wave, Arthur realized that the person who spoke was not the tall blacksmith, but the small, bearded blacksmith beside him. When the diminutive blacksmith stepped out from behind the chopping board, Arthur actually recognized that it was a dwarf!

Originally, when Arthur was still worrying about what gift to give Joseph to adulthood, he suddenly heard that there was a weapon shop opened by the dwarven master in the city of Banyas, so Arthur thought about what kind of gift he wanted to give Joseph, a sharp sword, a sword forged by the dwarven master himself.

The dwarf led Arthur and the others into the shop, and then said, "This is the best weapon shop in Banyas City, and customers can buy any kind of weapon they want. "We wanted to customize a sword. Arthur didn't speak, he was still browsing the weapons in the shop, and the answer to the dwarven blacksmith was Arthur's squire Scywens.

"This guest, do you know the rules of my shop?" the dwarven blacksmith sat down in his rocking chair and smoked a dry tobacco, then tapped a sign hanging on the wall with his dry tobacco pouch.

Arthur stopped looking at the weapon and looked at the signboard that read, "The dwarves must be a masterpiece." Customized weapons, bring your own materials, double the price, should you not bargain!"

Arthur motioned for Svens not to speak, but to continue admiring the weapons on display in the store. The dwarf blacksmith did not stop him, and the old god smoked the dry smoke leisurely. For a while, the store was filled with smoke.

When Arthur finally looked at all the weapons on display in the store, he turned around to talk to the dwarven blacksmith, only to find that the dwarven blacksmith was asleep. Saiwens, who was standing next to Arthur, tried to wake up the dwarven blacksmith, but Arthur stopped him. He told Severns to return to the inn and told his uncle, Duke Hendris, that he would be back later. Looking at Sevens, who had been ordered to return to the inn, Arthur turned around and picked up a two-handed greatsword hanging from the wall of the store. The blade is very sharp, flashing with cold light, and it looks like a good sword. Arthur pulled out the lion tooth on his waist, and the moment the lion tooth was pulled out, the dwarven blacksmith who was still sleeping suddenly woke up. Arthur swung his sword directly and slashed at the two-handed greatsword in his left hand. The two-handed swords broke in response, and the crisp sound was clear even in the sound of forging and hammering.

"Boy, show me that sword in your hand. The dwarven blacksmith didn't care about the severed greatsword in both hands, his attention was completely drawn to the lion's fangs in Arthur's hand.

Arthur turned around and pretended to be apologetic, "Ah, master, are you awake?" I'm sorry, I just wanted to try the sword, but I accidentally cut off this good sword." How much is this sword, I will pay the original price. ”

The dwarven blacksmith walked up to Arthur and said angrily, "Leave that piece of waste alone. Show me that sword in your hand. Hurry" Seeing the dwarven blacksmith's expression on his face that if you don't show me, I'm about to snatch it, Arthur held back a smile and handed the lion's tooth into the hands of the dwarven blacksmith.

A dwarven blacksmith who gets a lion's tooth is like a sculptor who gets a peerless jade, and the prodigal son touches the expression of a gorgeous woman. The dwarven blacksmith carefully stroked the body of the lion's tooth with his hand, which had forged a thousand eight divine weapons, and the expression on his face was satisfied and fascinated, making Arthur shiver in disgust.

The dwarf blacksmith who carefully stroked the lion's tooth inside and outside was reluctant to hand the lion tooth back into Arthur's hands, looking at the dwarven blacksmith's finger prints on the lion's originally smooth sword, Arthur decided to carefully scrub the lion's tooth inside and out after he went back, Arthur felt a little disgusting!

"Tell me, what kind of weapon do you want to craft?" the dwarven blacksmith reverted to his original nonchalant expression, "as long as you can get the materials and gold, there is no weapon that I can't craft with Lance Hammer." "If it's really the dwarven master he was looking for," Arthur thought to himself.

Then Arthur took out a bag of gold coins from his bosom and said, "Master Clarance, I didn't bring the materials for this trip in a hurry, but there should be materials in the master's shop." Can I pay four times the price, and the master will help me make a good sword. ”

The dwarf's face, which had been expressionless for a long time, was even more expressionless, and Clarence Hammer knocked the ash off the dry tobacco stick in his hand, then turned back to the chaise longue and closed his eyes. Arthur didn't understand what this was for a moment, and was a little overwhelmed.

The swarthy man, who had long since stopped pushing and pulling the bellows, walked up to Arthur's side and said, "This young man go back, my master's materials have already thought about what kind of weapon to make, and there is nothing extra to sell to you." And, judging by the way you look, you don't have any idea what the requirements are for the weapon you build, right? This is an insult to the master. For this, the weapons in the store will be able to meet your requirements!"

Arthur looked at the dwarf blacksmith who was already asleep, and then at the swarthy man who persuaded him to leave, sighed helplessly, and said to Clarence: "Master, today is my rudeness, tomorrow I will bring materials, I hope that the master can make a good sword for me at that time." ”

Unfortunately, the dwarven blacksmith did not respond to Arthur, and Arthur had no choice but to put the gold coins back in his arms and walk out of the blacksmith shop.

As Arthur was talking to Master Clarence, there was a commotion at the end of the street where the blacksmith was located. Pedestrians on the street fled in panic to both sides. A man in shabby clothes is being chased and beaten by a group of fierce men.

"Bang" The man who was desperately fleeing was kicked by one of the strong men and hit the stall on the side of the road, and the neatly placed fruits were immediately scattered all over the ground.

When the strong man saw that the man was kicked down, he hurriedly stepped forward to grab him, but the man hurriedly grabbed the fruit next to him and threw it at the enemy, and then ran towards the crowd with his hands and feet.

"Stop" and "Stop Lao Tzu" The group of strong men who were about to be caught at a glance were about to run away again, and they all rushed to the crowd in a hurry. The strong men don't care whether you will be injured or not, the onlookers who were innocent and watching the excitement were instantly knocked to pieces, and for a while shouts and curses came and went.

After the man rushed into the crowd and ran for a while, he found that there was no pursuing enemy behind him, so he bent over and panted to rest, but he didn't expect that just after resting for a while, there was a sound of chasing and cursing from behind. The man shook his head helplessly, then stood up and continued to escape.

When Arthur walked out of the smithy with the gold coin in his arms, the man also fled, just in time to collide with Arthur. Fortunately, Arthur has been exercising since he was a child, and although the force of the impact was very strong, Arthur also skillfully unloaded the impact force to avoid his own injury. But the man didn't seem to have Arthur's physique, and his thin body seemed to be seriously injured by the impact, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he was squatting on the ground and wailing in pain.

As soon as Arthur saw that he had injured the man, he hurriedly ran to the man's side to ask the man about the situation, but the man said that he was fine, and then he wanted to get up and leave, and did not want to hold Arthur responsible.

Arthur felt that he had injured the man, and he had to take the man to the doctor anyway. Arthur grabbed the hand of the man who wanted to leave and asked with concern, "Are you really okay?" I see that you are not lightly injured, and you have been injured before. If you don't go to the doctor or ask for the priest's blessing at the temple, you won't be able to stand it. The man tried to take Arthur's hand away, but found that Arthur was holding his hand tightly, and it seemed that Arthur would not let go unless the man was sent to the doctor. The man had no choice but to plead and said anxiously: "Please let go of me quickly, I am being chased and killed now, if you don't let go of me, I will die if I am chased by that group of people!"

Hearing the man's words, Arthur had already held the man's hand tighter, and there was already a noise on the street corner. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man looked around to see if there was a place to hide. It's a pity that the streets with an unobstructed view are only bustling with pedestrians. Seeing that he couldn't break free from Arthur's pull, and there was no place to hide around, the man simply stood directly behind Arthur and waited for the arrival of the group of strong men.

When Arthur saw that the man was not leaving, he was relieved, and then asked the man with concern who was chasing him. The man looked at Arthur dressed luxuriously, and the sword at his waist was not precious. changed his eager tone at the beginning, smiled brightly, and said with a stammering face: "This noble young master, seeing that you are magnificent and extraordinary, at first glance, you are a young master from a big family." The villain is being chased and killed by the enemy, please save the villain, the villain will definitely be a cow and a horse to repay the young master!"

As soon as the man said it, Arthur immediately said that he could settle anything for the man, and it should be regarded as compensation for the man's injuries. When the man heard this, he was grateful again.

The dark-skinned man standing in the blacksmith shop stopped talking when Arthur collided with the man. When he saw Arthur trying to lead the man into the shop, he couldn't help but want to remind Arthur forward, but he found that something on his calf had hooked him, and when he looked down, it was his master's dry tobacco pouch. He immediately understood what his master meant, and stood there and watched Arthur and the man walk into the blacksmith's shop.

"Here, boss, he's here. As soon as Arthur entered the blacksmith shop, the group of strong men who had been chasing the man chased him to the blacksmith shop, and when he saw the man in the blacksmith shop, there was a shout. When the others saw it, they immediately surrounded the door of the blacksmith shop.

The man standing in the blacksmith shop saw that the enemy who was chasing him had chased him outside the blacksmith shop, and subconsciously hid behind Arthur, and then whispered: "Young master, it is this group of people who chase and kill the villain." Young master, be careful, they have a cruel temperament, and the villain just bumped into one of them, and they were caught and beaten by them. Later, the villain finally escaped, and they didn't even let the villain go. ”

"Like you just hit me, and then accidentally knocked their money bags away?" The man was a little dazed when he heard Arthur's words, "What are you talking about, young master, why can't I understand?" Arthur didn't pay attention to the man behind him, but said to the strong man who surrounded the blacksmith shop: "He, you have already beaten up, and you have already taken the money back." That's it. The money was like me buying his life. Arthur threw a bag of gold coins to the ground, and the coins tumbled and tumbled from the bag to the ground.

The strong men outside the blacksmith shop glanced at each other, and then they all looked at the strong man in the middle. The strong man looked at Arthur, who was very magnanimous, and then saw the dwarf resting on the chaise longue in the blacksmith's shop, and he realized that he had actually surrounded the best weapons shop in Banyas. The strong man picked up all the gold coins from the ground without a long time, and then left without saying a word of cruelty.

As soon as the man saw that Arthur had sent away the strong man who was chasing him, he immediately felt grateful to Arthur. Arthur was unmoved, just put his hand in front of the man. The man looked at Arthur with a puzzled expression, not understanding what Arthur was going to do.

Arthur didn't insist when he saw the man pretending to be stupid, "You can keep the gold coins." I've heard about you, but I just didn't expect to meet you. That bag of gold coins is insignificant to me, but I hope you put it to good use. The dark-skinned man realized that Arthur had already known that the gold coin he had put in his arms had been stolen by the man.

The man, on the other hand, still didn't understand what Arthur was talking about, and was still at a loss.

Arthur crossed the man and bowed to Master Clarance, the dwarven blacksmith lying on the chaise longue, and said, "I have disturbed the master a lot today, and I will make amends tomorrow, and Arthur will retire first today." With that, Arthur turned and left the blacksmith's shop. When the man heard Arthur say his name, a flash of light suddenly erupted in his cloudy eyes, but then he returned to his original appearance. And Master Clarence was lying motionless on the sugarcoating from beginning to end.

The setting sun shone into the blacksmith's shop, stretching the man's figure very long, and he walked out of the blacksmith to look in the direction Arthur had left, and then merged into the crowd and disappeared.
