Chapter Twenty-Five: This Painting Style Is a Little Strange!
Seeing the almost undisguised contempt in Li Yi's eyes looking at them, Brott really couldn't refute it, in fact, it was originally their dwarven clan who signed an alliance with Bai Xue's country after hearing about the astrologer's prophecy and became allies.
What they had planned to do was to use Shirayuki and the prince to eradicate this monster, and when the time comes, the dwarven clan will naturally be empty and able to follow the covenant, what a perfect plan.
But who would have thought that the princess was really here, but the prince who was supposed to come was gone, so how could he destroy the monster? Without destroying that monster, the young and strong men of the dwarven clan will not be able to pull out, and there will be no way to fulfill what the covenant says. So Blott can also understand Li Yi's inner resentment. However, understanding is understanding, they are really more than willing to do things in the Snow Kingdom.
"Alright, so be it, we'll help you solve this monster's problem. In return, your men are going to take part in this war. As for the covenant, don't mention it! Li Yi's voice was still full of resentment, obviously very disdainful of this behavior of the dwarf. They are equivalent to transferring the risk to Bai Xue, no matter what, they will not have anything to lose.
Blott looked at the obviously unfriendly atmosphere, and he was also helpless, they dwarves did think things too easily.
However, seeing that Li Yi and the others finally decided to try to destroy the monster, Brott was very surprised: "You really want to go?" He confirmed.
"Yes, don't waste any time, after we get rid of this monster, we have to hurry to the kingdom of snow. Can't afford to waste too much time here. Li Yi said to them.
Seeing Li Yi's resolute attitude, Blott no longer blocked it, since he wants to try, then let's try.
Immediately, Blott took Li Yi, Bai Xue, and Godric to the colorful mountain where the monster was sealed. Looking at the tall seven-colored mountain in front of him, Li Yi's attitude also softened a little, although the forest dwarf clan was not very authentic to what the White Snow Country did, but their sentiments of sacrificing themselves just to suppress this monster could still save some points. At the very least, these people are true warriors.
On the way, Brott told them about the way the dwarves suppressed the monster, and that the seven dwarven warriors who were close to legend had transformed their bodies into special rocks to temporarily suppress the monster, but that monster was not that simple, it had been silently accumulating strength and trying to escape from the seal.
Therefore, each generation of dwarves will practice the cultivation method of the seven warriors of the year, and before they die, they will use the special magic obtained in this way to turn themselves into this kind of mountain stone, and finally be transported by the living dwarves to the seven-colored peak, and when the time comes, the mountain stone they turned into can suppress the monster together with their ancestors.
Therefore, this tall mountain peak is not an ordinary formation, but the belief and persistence of all forest dwarves! That was the perseverance of the forest dwarf ancestors! It is not an exaggeration to say that this mountain is a sacred mountain for the dwarves.
"So, how can we destroy that monster?" Li Yi asked Blott calmly.
"All it takes is to be recognized by the will of the seven warriors from the sacred mountain of our clan, and you will be blessed and able to teleport to the cave where the monster is." Blott told him how to confront the monster, "But, boys, do you really want to go in?" In the end, he asked Li Yi about them again, and vaguely persuaded them not to be reluctant.
However, Li Yi still chose to move on, and Helga and the others also showed their support for Li Yi with their actions, and none of them took a step back.
"Okay, then after entering the Holy Mountain, you must pay attention to the right methods, and you can't blindly do it. Of course, if you can't pass the will of the Holy Mountain, you won't be teleported to the place where the monster was suppressed. Blott then passed on a little bit of experience to them.
"Generally speaking, the trials of the Holy Mountain are divided into seven levels. They correspond to the witchcraft that the seven warriors imprinted in their minds back then. They are Vigor, Five Senses Enhancement, Defense Blessing, Fire Control, Water Control, Stealth, and Storage Space. The mana extracted by the dwarves is mostly used to exercise the flesh, but every qualified dwarven warrior will choose at least one witchcraft from the clan's lineage to brand, which can greatly enhance their combat power. ”
"But almost all the other secret techniques of the forest dwarves have been lost. Only those seven kinds of witchcraft imprints are left, because every dwarven warrior is no longer for their own strength, but for better integration with the holy mountain, and only these seven secret arts have the best effect, so now the forest dwarf clan only has these seven witchcraft imprints left and inherited. Blott's voice was full of loneliness. I don't know if I'm worried about the dwarven clan's witchcraft inheritance or if I'm helpless about the fate of my own clansmen.
In fact, after listening to Blott's introduction, a familiar BGM suddenly flashed in Li Yi's mind for some reason.
"Jingle Clang...... Jingle ...... Ding Ding ...... Dangdang, jingle jingle dang gourd baby......"
"What a strong technique, the enhancement of the five senses, the blessing of defense, the control of fire, the control of water, the invisibility technique, and the storage space. What the hell is wrong with this world? Isn't it enough for Snow White to sell matches? Why do you need to add seven gourd baby Dao systems that have been inherited for thousands of years? Could it be that there will be any story of werewolves and sheep people in the future, or the battle of wits between the bear demon and humans? ”
Although the tradition of the dwarf clan is very admirable, Li Yi, who was shocked by the style of painting, still has a desire to complain.
The other people didn't see anything, after all, they hadn't seen the gourd baby, right?
However, Rowena and Salacha, who were more attentive among the several people, had some doubts about Li Yi's expression. After getting along for such a long time, the relationship between several people is also progressing very well, and both of them can see that Li Yi has a look of wanting to speak at this time, and they don't know what they are thinking, but they who know Li Yi will not ask directly now. Instead, he kept his doubts to the bottom of his heart.
"Well, Elder, then can you tell us a little bit about the gourd...... Isn't it the method of the test of the Seven Warriors? Li Yi asked Blott again, but now his attitude has softened a little, probably seeing the efforts of these forest dwarves.
In addition, this holy mountain has been blessed by the ancestors of the dwarf race over the years. There may be nothing wrong with themselves, but Snow and Godric are hard to say.
