The iron ore of Nasikai was due south, and there were several hills to climb in between.

At noon, the members of the "Sword and Rose" group chose to set up a temporary camp on the top of the mountain to prepare lunch.

"This city is a wound in nature, and if it could develop naturally, it would certainly not be what it is now." Jahira, who was driving the plants to make way for a small campfire, couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the somewhat dirty town of Nasikai shrouded in haze. Because of steelmaking, there were tall mountains of slag and cinders to the south of Nasikai, and the nearby forests had been cut down, and because of steelmaking, the town was shrouded in ash and dust every day, almost to the extent that it is today's capital.

"Jahira, if we solve the iron ore crisis, maybe we can make some changes to Mayor Blanch, such as cleaning up the perimeter of the city, demolishing the slums, etc. You know, although I am a human being, I ...... I love nature! Chanem, who was learning to build a stove, immediately took over the topic.

He wouldn't miss any chance to chat with Jahira and Twilight, or behave in front of the two of them.

"I must resign to Glien! Teaching goblins this biology to do magic is an impossible task! "I heard Chanem say something stupid again. Lu Yuan couldn't help but complain, and Twilight Star hid beside him with a smile, leaning on him to watch the excitement.

Lu Yuan rubbed his forehead and thought helplessly, even this simple complaint is serious, when will this child grow up? Lao Tzu has been teaching for so long, why is he becoming more and more desperate? It's really hard for Glian to get him to be a part-time mage! But I can't do this job!

Jahira stopped talking in embarrassment and continued to drive away the plants to make more space. This kind of "plant expulsion" seems to be a bit uncherished for plants, but in fact it will not be burned, dug up, or crushed by the body. Just get out of the way for a few hours. It was then restored at the least cost.

Jahira regretted her frivolous actions in the days before she died, and the teasing of Chanem was apparently taken as some kind of recognition, so she gave up on Twilight. Instead, he simply concentrated his firepower and stormed Jahira. The self-proclaimed handsome young man had no idea that Jahira was actually married. And the situation that her husband is around. As Chanem's elder and Glion's friend. Although neither Jahira nor Khalid could say anything, nor could they leave, her husband Kharid's displeasure was palpable.

He couldn't figure out how Grion had taught this kid! Elves have a much stronger sense of morality than humans. Half-elves are also far superior to humans. Humans...... Far better than goblins, orcs or something.

When it comes to the mixed life of orcs, as long as you ignore the nobles of ghost animals, everyone as a human still has a sense of superiority.

After eating, everyone sat around the camp and drank tea.

Lu Yuan, who was in a slightly better mood, remembered the scene when he went to a picnic in college in the past, and told everyone a joke about "elves and greens" by the campfire.

“…… After killing the slave trader with an arrow, the elf said to himself strangely, 'Hiding in the grass in an emerald green garment, doesn't he know how conspicuous it is?' ’”

This choreography elf can accurately distinguish more than a dozen kinds of green jokes, and it is one of the jokes that Lu Yuan impresses the most. Because it was appropriate for the situation, Lu Yuan laughed first after speaking, and Chanem and Amon looked at each other and laughed. And the three half-elves all blinked their big apricot kernel-shaped eyes, looking at Lu Yuan very strangely - the difference between the color of grass green and emerald green is indeed very big, I don't know what is funny about this......

So Lu Yuan was depressed.

Seeing Lu Yuan depressed, Twilight Star also felt embarrassed, although the joke was really not funny. So she decided to tell a funny joke to lighten the mood, "I'll tell you a 'soup spoon and rice spoon' joke too, it's the real thing I experienced in the Northland," Twilight said softly. Seeing that the famous ranger in the Northland was going to tell his story, several people were looking forward to it with great interest.

“…… By this time, the master had already brought the last soup, but unfortunately, he said that his spoon had been snatched by the goblin.

'How can you drink soup without a spoon?' I had to ask.

But the owner didn't care and said, 'But it didn't take away the rice spoon.'" Haha~"

Twilight slapped her legs and laughed breathlessly, and Jahira and Khalid laughed back and forth, and the intensity was so intense that they couldn't stop at all.

Now it's the turn of the three humans to look at each other - is it so funny to drink soup with a rice spoon when you don't have a soup spoon?

But the three and a half elves who looked at the joy ...... So when it comes to elves or something, sometimes it's annoying! Lu Yuan continued to read depressedly, and he felt more and more that traveling with others was a big mistake.

At that time, when I traveled alone with Twilight, I only had to say pornographic jokes, and whether Twilight understood or was confused, the reaction would be cute and funny.

By the way, the status of the creature of the half-elf is much higher than imagined. In the vocabulary of elves, there is no such thing as "mongrel", and if a half-elf lives like an elf, it is considered an elf, and if it lives like a human, it is considered a human. The status of elves is based on racial bloodline, and one-eighth of the blood of the day elves is also more noble than the pure-blooded wood elves.

"There are goblins", Aemon's words rescued everyone, so everyone packed up like a great enemy and made a gesture of preparing for war!

"Seven or eight," Jahira stood up and looked at it, and counted it. In the elf's keen vision, there were seven or eight goblins wandering in the distance, not daring to rush over Bean, and reluctant to leave.

As soon as the numbers were heard, the person sat down for the most part. Along the way, I cut goblins until I wanted to vomit, and I really didn't have any interest.

"I'll go". Chanem straightened out his equipment, stood up with a longbow, and said to Jahira with a deep chest.

"I'll go too," said Ammon, who followed him with a short bow. Ever since she left the Friendly Arm, Lady Aemon has been following Chanem like a shadow of Chanem, but Chanem has always been courteous to Jahira and Twilight, completely ignoring Aemon's presence.

Ammon's liking for Chanem can be seen by anyone with long eyes, but Chanem still thinks that he and Aemon are "close brother and sister". Actually, although one is the adopted son of Glian. One is the adopted daughter of an innkeeper. But they are indeed brother and sister.

Their fathers are both Barr's stallions, who see who is pregnant, and although they don't know each other, the two of them are really brother and sister.

"May there be lovers in the world who will eventually become brothers and sisters", this kind of cheating daddy setting change. Once let get Baldur's Gate 2 after the game. Suddenly I found my favorite Aemon. Those hardcore players who turned out to be their own sisters are in pain! In order to allow brothers and sisters to fall in love, some people have specially made mods such as "Amoon's Romance", and they are crazy to fall in love with their own sisters. And pushed his sister down......

"Khalid, go and take a look," Jahira nudged her husband. Kalid nodded, stood up, took his shield and sword, and went over to protect the two young girls. The others continued to be leisurely just now, and with the combat experience along the way, it was already "handy" to deal with such a small situation. The brother and sister shoot arrows in front and back, killing the goblin on the right while driving the goblin to the stream on the left. When the local elves had to wade into the water to escape from the stream, they were wiped out because of the slow speed of the current.

Afterwards, Aemon stalked and went into the bushes to scout for any other enemies. Chanem examines the corpses - mending knives for the undead, cutting off an ear for bounty for the dead, collecting ironware, and recovering usable arrows. Khalid is by his side every step of the way, after all, he is the son of an old friend, not to mention ...... That Arlando prophesied that he also knew a little bit, and that the path Chanem chose to take was a matter of great importance to the whole kingdom.

"The trail came from the south, in the direction of the mine," Ammon said, returning.

Seeing that everyone is looking at themselves and waiting for them to make a decision.

Chanem was nervous for a moment, then thought seriously for a few minutes and said, "Then let's hurry up!" ”

From an angle that he couldn't see, Jahira and Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time, it was really not easy to take care of a child. Jahira gestured to Lu Yuan, "You up", and Lu Yuan spread his hands, "What are you doing?" Jahira raised her chin and nodded at her husband, "How much more trouble do you want me to get into trouble?!" ”

Although Lu Yuan wanted to say, "If you get into trouble, our family Twilight will be in no trouble." "It's a pity, it's a teammate. Therefore, he could only stand up, nodded at Chanem very encouragingly, and praised: "It's a good job, the worst decision is no decision, and the best decision is a timely decision." Being able to make a choice based on your own judgment, you've made it to the first part! Congratulations to Cha, you're already a qualified captain! ”

Then everyone applauded a few times, and the expressions of admiration and appreciation flashed on their faces, which made Chanem feel the joy of success and everyone's recognition, which stimulated more initiative and desire to perform...... Alas, educating children is really tiring. Only his sister Aemon is really worshipping his brother Chanem, and is watching his figure with shining eyes, if he is a sister control, he should be able to die without regrets at this time.

"I feel more and more that this is a loss-making deal", Lu Yuan complained quietly, as he walked behind the most luke, and kept looking down at the spell information, but put the invisible Nini in front of the team early to explore the way.

************

After most of the day's trek, several people finally arrived at the Naxikai mine, and explained a few words to the person in charge, and although it was almost night, everyone hurried into the mine - there could be no sunlight in the mine anyway.

Like all medieval mines, Nasicay's mines were long, narrow, poorly supported, collapsing in many places, and densely packed like cobwebs. If the walker is more careful, under the light of the lantern attached to the "inextinguishable flame", bones can be found in almost every branch of the road, from fresh corpses to completely decayed, it is not all caused by this crisis.

In this day and age, mining is a matter of life.

The problem of the iron ore mine in Nasikai. It's not just a few man-eating monsters from the depths. If it's just cannibalism, it's simply not a problem, because the life of a miner is not much better than that of a slave. As long as it doesn't affect production, for example, monsters only eat once a week, then no one may care.

According to rumors, the deposits of the Nasikai mine were "poisoned"! Ore contaminated with a certain substance will produce steel of extremely poor quality. It has not yet been possible to determine whether the contamination is specific to the deposit or to the mined ore, and no tangible evidence has been found. However, as the only source of income, the miners were driven into the mines to mine. It is impossible to infect all the iron ore on such a large scale. Therefore, good iron ore can always be mined. It's just that the quality fluctuates a lot. As long as a few more batches go wrong, the blow to Nasikai's mining industry will be fatal.

As for the miners, though no one could say how much of a difference between the miners and the slaves, it would be if the iron mines went out of business. There is a lack of arable land around Nasikai. That's when all the miner families will fall into a Jedi.

Enter the mines. The six people marched in a formation of the first three and the last three, and they did not encounter any monsters along the way, except for the miners. You can guess from the description in the mouth of the miner. In the depths of the mines, there should be creatures like kobolds and goblins. Goblins are just timid, cowardly, and vulnerable. In contrast, kobolds are much more threatening with bows and arrows, especially when they are shot in large numbers.

The third level of the mine.

Khalid was at the front, wearing half steel armor and holding a steel shield, covering himself tightly. As a half-elf, the medium-sized steel shield is able to cover a larger body area, and his dim vision is also of greater help here.

The smooth surface of his steel shield was also cast with the spell of an unquenchable flame, which could shine like a searchlight into the deep mines. In the same way, he will inevitably become the primary target of the fire. There are always accidents down there, and miners basically don't go down to the third floor. As the number of people in the mine decreased, it became unusually quiet, only the six members of the team walked alone in the dark, and a lingering oppressive atmosphere began to weigh heavily on the team's hearts.

Whether it's the sound of thumping footsteps or the never-ending long mine road; I don't know how long it has been, and the shaking dizzying shield "searchlight" has transformed into the team's anxious mood.

"Wait a minute", Lu Yuan, who was walking behind the most elves, stopped, he frowned and looked at the half-elves, "What's wrong with you?" ”

He had felt that Khalid's shield seemed to be unstable, which was strange, after all, he was a good fighter. Later, he noticed that not only was there something wrong with Khalid, but Twilight looked normal on the surface, but he was rarely sweating profusely, shortness of breath, and flushed. Jahira showed a tired expression several times, and rested on the wall with her hands a few times, and Lu Yuan thought that she hadn't rested well at first.

Because the elves of Zhilu Dao may not be adapted to the underground tunnels, they have already cast the magic of "environmental harmony" before entering to adapt to the environment. In this way, even if you enter the bottomless abyss, you can live for a while. But look at the current situation......

He brought Calidra over and placed his steel shield on his side, and sure enough! Before, he couldn't see it in the darkness behind the bright shield, but now when he removed the shield, he found that Khalid was pale, sweat was dripping down his cheeks, his eyes were dazed, and his whole person was close to collapse!

"Poisoning?!" Chanem took Khaled's shield and asked nervously. I was a little ashamed that half of the team had a problem, and as the captain, I didn't find out.

Lu Yuan carefully inquired about the feelings of the three people, and said with some uncertainty and some amusement, "Claustrophobia? ”

"What's the problem?" Ammon said he didn't understand.

"Ahem, no, I think I'm ...... It's poisoned! Very serious poison! Jahira retorted that with her druid's medical experience, she could clearly feel the rapid decline of her body, which was not caused by any illness - not to mention that neither Ranger nor Druid were sick.

And as she spoke, she felt her strength accelerate, and the walls around her seemed to press down on her, making it impossible for her to breathe......

"Come on! Check it out! Aammon! Let's send the elves to the upper level to breathe! Lu Yuan slapped his slap to wake up the two young men and ordered. At this time, Khalid, who had been expending a lot of physical strength, had to lean against the wall to support his body. Hearing the order, Chanem went straight over and helped Jasila. Lu Yuan half hugged Twilight, and Lovely Meng couldn't help the heavily armed Khalid at all, so he could only unbutton his armor with tears in his eyes.

"Ah...... Ah Yuan," here Twilight Star also fell, she grabbed Lu Yuan's robe with some confusion, as if she was in a hurry to say her thoughts, "Yuan, big ship." The ...... Big ship, if ...... If I can't go back...... Can I entrust it to you? Her big eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Lu Yuan pleadingly.

"Please. Please put me ...... and the bones of Khalid ...... Send Carizan back......" Jahira said weakly to Chanem. "Please and...... Glian said no, kid...... No...... I'm going to go down with you. Chanem burst into tears.

"Yes...... Yes......" Khalid replied weakly.

Lu Yuan raised his forehead, and the elves over there also began to explain their last words. A more troublesome situation than a claustrophobia is having three at the same time! They will inspire each other and influence each other, and then everyone will deteriorate rapidly! Death is not impossible! But now it's obviously too late to send them up.

"Let them lie down together!" Lu Yuan laid the steel shield flat. Let the light of the unquenchable flame shine directly on the roof of the tunnel. Creates the effect of a halo. "Xiao Cha. You go to the front! Ammon go to the back, watch out! Don't go far, just stand where I can see! ”

Wait for the two teenagers to leave. He began to take care of the three half-elves, who were already somewhat confused. The chaotic thoughts when blurred slightly alleviate the impact of the claustrophobic space, which is also a way for the body to save itself. He leaned down beside them, and his voice became gentle and kind, "Listen to me, children, listen to me......"

His hands were spread out, his fingers sliding. Under the reflection of the bright brilliance, a large handful of green gradually emerged from between his hands, gradually turning into forests, grasslands, lakes, mountains, the sound of the wind, the song of birds...... The three elves all began to relax physically, and the familiar environment relieved their symptoms.

"Why don't you have a beast?" The confused Jahira spoke.

Lu Yuan appeared three black lines, and the figure and cry of the beast were added.

"Welcome to Alona's kingdom......" With the illusion, his voice became loud and intimate, as if it could speak to everyone's heart, and Twilightstar's face showed a look of joy, and the symptoms were rapidly disappearing. Claustrophobia is ultimately a mental illness that can be quickly treated as long as psychological deception is achieved.

"But we are followers of His Highness Obai", Royal Sister Jahira picked on the bug again, and Khalid nodded slightly.

I endure, Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, and the illusion technique was isolated and played "Welcome to the ...... of the Kingdom of God in Obai", and this time the symptoms of changing to Khalid began to disappear quickly.

"I'm a believer in nature, I'm a druid, and I won't go to the kingdom of God under His Highness Obai," Sister Jahira, whose symptoms had only eased slightly, continued to retort.

"You give me an honest squat in the unrestrained wilderness! Squat well! Lu Yuan, who couldn't bear it, yelled at Jahira! The words turned into rumbling thunder under the effect of the illusion, shaking Jahira's ears. The royal sister really showed a somewhat frightened expression, got up with her eyes closed, and squatted there honestly, and the symptoms began to lessen quickly - you are a shaking M who looks like S! …… Anyway, is this femdom?!

When the three awakened elves opened their eyes, they noticed that although they were still in the tunnel, there was some soothing green around them. Despite being an illusion, the environment is not as reacting as it used to be. It's just that the problem of the elves still exists, and now it seems that maybe it's because you can't see the sky, maybe it's due to the change in atmospheric pressure, maybe it's even the influence of the leyline radiation, in short, the elves can't go any further.

Retrieve Chanem and Aemon.

"Listen to me," Lu Yuan stopped Chanem's speech, "The problem of the elves is very serious now, and if we encounter enemies like this, we will be damaged." I ordered the three elves to retreat to the upper floor, and if there were still problems, they could withdraw directly. Chanem and Ammon set up a second stronghold in the guardhouse at the back, ready to pick me up, and I went ahead to explore the way. ”

"I have a special contact with Twilight, and she knows what I'm doing." Lu Yuan added.

Everyone looked at Twilight, who nodded. Nini hadn't been in front of everyone, and was now crouching incognito in Twilight's ear. With the psychic connection between Nini and Lu Yuan, there is no problem with the basic connection. Seeing that the situation was more serious, Lu Yuan directly suppressed Chanem's opinion and issued an order.

Twilight, Jahira, and Khalid returned to the upper floor, and Chanem and Aemon built a simple "wall" with the shield left behind by Lu Yuan, and then distributed all the arrows, trying to guard the intersection on both sides. After Lu Yuan finished arranging, his figure flashed and disappeared into the darkness. (To be continued......)
