"Your guess is right. Farrell affirmed Xiao Chen's statement, "In our dwarven kingdom, the power of many forging tools comes from the energy of the lava river. Therefore, many nobles will choose to build houses near the lava river, also in order to get more energy. Whoever gets more energy will be able to use them to forge better things. The Ansaldo family's forge is located close to the river, while our family's forge is halfway up the mountain. To forge the same thing, we may need to spend two or three percent more effort than their family's forgers. ”

"But your craft is the best. "Ansaldo.

Farrell said: "It's just that in my small city, there are too many masters in the king's capital. ”

"Isn't your family here?" Xiao Chen asked.

Farrell said: "The royal capital you see now is the earliest and most core area, and that is where only the old families are qualified to exist. The place where my family is located is a small town close to the king. Many of the dwarves who later became nobles could not find a place for their families in the royal capital, so they set up their homes in villages and towns upstream of the lava river. But speaking of another village and town, in fact, it is connected to the king, and it is all in this canyon. According to you, it should be a small satellite city. ”

Xiao Chen understood what he meant, this was the inevitable result of the slow development and expansion of a city. He pointed to the heat-insulating formations on the wall and said, "Have you ever wondered what would happen if all of these formations failed?"

"Why do you say that?" Ansaldo asked, and he suddenly came to his senses, "Is it because of the gods of nature?"

"Looks like you've thought of it too. Xiao Chen touched the magic circle with his fingertips, feeling the energy surging inside, "Imagine if the gods of nature take back your ability to use magic to make magic circles, these magic circles will naturally be completely invalid, and what will become of your king at that time?"

"This ...... Is it really that scary?" Ansaldo couldn't imagine.

"It's only going to be worse than you think. Umedada, who was following behind, interjected, "I also saw a magic circle for lava stabilization deeper down there. If those circles fail, will this place become an erupting volcano?"

"The god of forging is above. That's a ...... It's horrible. Ansaldo muttered.

Xiao Chen said, "So you should help us contact the High Priest of the Forging Temple as soon as possible." To help us is to save yourselves. ”

Ansaldo nodded repeatedly.

The group walked for about twenty minutes before finally coming to a huge mansion below. The house was too large to fit entirely on a excavated cliff platform.

So a third is suspended outside the cliff, and another third is embedded in the mountain wall.

At the entrance of the house are two large dwarven statues, one holding a battle axe and the other wielding a hammer.

Ansaldo said, "These are the two ancestors of our Fire Crystal family, namely the Holy Rank Warrior Camao and the Holy Forge Master Prokte. However, over the years, I don't know what the reason is, it has been a long time since there has been a saint in the entire dwarf kingdom. ”

Ansaldo had already sent someone to report in advance, and several dwarves stood at the door of the Fire Crystal Family to greet Xiao Chen and his party.

Among them was an old dwarf with white hair and white beard, and in the midst of all of them looked at them with a majestic bearing.

"This is our master, the Grand Forge Canelian. Ansaldo introduced.

"Your Excellency Xiao Chen, welcome to the royal capital. When Ansaldo told me about this, I was shocked, I never thought that the Fire Crystal family would have such a cooperation with humans. However, since the Fire Crystal family has agreed to cooperate, we will definitely go all out. There are too many eyes outside, so let's go in and talk about specific things. Canellian looked serious, he made a gesture of inviting Xiao Chen in, and led everyone to the inside of the house.

When Xiao Chen walked into this mansion, he felt a sense of coolness coming to his face. It seems that the magic circle inside the house is much more powerful than the magic circle outside.

The old dwarf walked beside Xiao Chen with his hands behind his back: "Ansaldo has already told me the general situation. I'm already in contact with the temple, and I don't want to send you over in a hurry, so I have to understand the attitude of the high priest first. What would you do if the High Priest's attitude was wrong and he wasn't ready to cooperate with you?"

Xiao Chen estimated that the dwarf patriarch was worried that if something went wrong on the high priest's side, it would affect the Fire Crystal family. However, Xiao Chen was determined to obtain the Forging Tower, and whether the High Priest cooperated or agreed to it or not, it would not hinder his determination to finally obtain the Forging Tower. Xiao Chen didn't want to deceive the patriarch, he said with a deep sigh: "Then I will consider other means to find the Forging Tower." Whether it's working on the High Priest or turning to the King for a solution, I'll try my best. ”

"What if it doesn't work?" the old patriarch looked at Xiao Chen with burning eyes.

"Maybe at the end of the day, when there is no other way, I will consider using strong measures. ”

Canellian walked for a while with his hands behind his back and didn't make a sound, but just when Xiao Chen was a little worried, he said, "Very good, since you have such determination, our family will cooperate with you." ”

"Aren't you worried?"

"I've never dealt with the Tower of China, so I don't know you well. But it seems to me that you humans and us dwarves are similar in many things. Canellian spoke slowly, but in a resolute tone, "I'm not worried that you'll take strong measures, as long as our family and your China Tower fully cooperate, there are not many things that can't be done in the Dwarf King." But I'm afraid you'll back down halfway, so our family will survive. ”

Xiao Chen was surprised that the patriarch's attitude was completely different from Ansaldo's. If Ansaldo later became like a timid lamb in front of him, suffering from gains and losses on many issues, passively accepting his demands. As the patriarch, Canelian was like a devouring tiger. is fighting for the best interests of the Fire Crystal family, but this posture is hidden under his old appearance, so it seems less aggressive.

"Even if we take military action in the royal capital, will you support us?" Xiao Chen asked.

Canelian smiled, "Ravapolis is a very old city, and so many things have happened in this city, everything you thought or didn't think of has happened here. ”
