Chen Yin's room. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Barana sat on the bed, Chen Yin stood next to the wine rack and held up the wine bottle in his hand and asked, "What to drink?" ”

"Water, thank you."

Chen Yin shrugged and poured two glasses of water.

"The Butcher of Mogoth...... Are you talking about me? Chen Yin walked up to Barana and gave her the water glass.

"Of course it's you." The woman smiled slightly, took the water cup and didn't drink it, just held it in her hand, "It's rare to see a strong person who is suspected of being a legend level inexplicably. ”

"Single-handedly quelled the invasion of the Grey Orcs, helped the Holy Light Church kill several well-known quasi-legendary powerhouses in a row during the rebellion, and disappeared after retreating with the Holy Ship...... What a wonderful experience you've had in the past. ”

"Looks like you're investigating carefully." Chen Yin smiled slightly, dragged the stool and sat down.

Barana shrugged and didn't speak.

"What's going on with the Downtons." Chen Yin asked, crossing Erlang's legs.

"An old family that has been thriving for more than 500 years, and almost every generation has a strong or wise man. This is what makes this bloated family still thrive today. I used to think that the Downton family was really good at cultivating successors, but now it seems that ...... Hehe, that's it. ”

"Oh? How? ”

"Hmph, it's just another family that has risen behind the scenes, and there are no eighteen hundred such families in the Federation." Barana said dismissively.

"Then it's glorious to start with a robber like you?" Chen Yin said sarcastically.

"At least we're on our own." Barana licked her mouth, "...... Now that the Downton family is out of business, it's time for you to keep your promise, right? ”

"You haven't said anything about the Shadow Church, how much power can they muster here in the Golden Harbor? Without being too specific, just tell me about a few legends, a few quasi-legends. ”

"......" Barana stared at Chen Yin with strange eyes.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yin touched his cheek strangely, "Is there anything dirty on my face?" ”

"Hehe, it's really a big shot." Barana lazily leaned on the head of Chen Yin's bed, cocked her long legs and put them on the bed. The hem of the long skirt draped, revealing half of her fair calves.

"But I still have to listen~" This cat-like woman was coquettish with silky eyes.

“……”

Chen Yin looked at her and was silent for a while, but finally took out the card with the guitar sealed, canceled the card, tried the audition, and gently played the familiar prelude......

…… A few minutes later, the last syllable ended, and the room fell silent again.

"It's your turn."

"Hmph." Barana snorted coquettishly, but she didn't dwell on it much, and finally said the information that Chen Yin wanted to know: "Do you think that a big man like you still thinks that legends and quasi-legends are running all over the street?" This is just a small port, and although there are a lot of supplies here, only those federal cities are the core interests of these big families. ”

"So?"

"Not a single one, whether legendary or quasi-legendary, I'm sure." After Barana finished speaking, her tone became soft again, "Well, people want to hear something else...... Yes!? What are you doing!? ”

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Yin grabbed her by the arm and threw her out of the room.

"Thank you, goodbye."

"Bump!"

The wooden door shut, and there was a sound of latches coming in from inside.

"Hey! Are you a man!? Barana snorted and kicked the wooden door.

“……”

All that was left for her was the silent wooden door.

"Humph! Stinky man! With that, Barana left indignantly.

……

In the room, the crow looked at Chen Yin, who had a somewhat wrong face, and said with a smile: "Quack~ That woman wants to have sex with you~ Why did you refuse?" ”

"You know what? This woman's origin is definitely not simple, and I don't dare to swallow this bait without knowing who is behind her. Chen Yin rubbed his face and glared at the crow viciously.

"Besides, I really don't want to get involved in the local power entanglement, I just want to find the news of the 'Worm Sleeping Place' as soon as possible and leave here." Chen Yin sighed.

"Quack~silly~~," Clinton scoffed.

In the face of the crow's ridicule, Chen Yin just smiled tiredly and lay down on the bed. There seems to be a vague fragrance between the wings of the nose.

"Hey, Clinton, do you have any family?" Chen Yin suddenly asked.

"Home...... Family...... Yes, there is a quack. Is the owner a family member? The crow was stunned and replied uncertainly.

"Do you miss him?"

“…… I want to croak. Clinton suddenly felt a little sad, "I haven't seen my master ...... for a long time."

"I want to think too, the longer I stay away from home, the more I want to think." Chen Yin put his hands behind his head, his eyes staring at the ceiling without focus, and the scenes of his family's dedication to him replayed in his mind like a movie.

Elementary, middle, and high school ......

Unsociable parents with awkward smiles and gifts begging people just so that he could go to a good school......

…… Until the end, he smashed the pot and sold iron, and even mortgaged the house, in order to make up for his high living expenses.

Scene by scene, piece by piece, when everything faded away, only their gray temples reminded Chen Yin in his memory that his parents were old.

“…… I'm such an unfilial son......"

……

The next day.

Chen Yin was awakened by a knock on the door.

"Your Excellency, a dwarf is looking for you." The little maid stood timidly outside the door and said.

"What's wrong? Am I scary? Chen Yin asked strangely, the little maid's performance before was not like this.

"No, no, of course not." The little maid shook her head hurriedly, "It's just...... Sister Nana looked very unhappy after she left you yesterday...... Sister Nana is a good woman, she is always very arrogant when she is seen, but she is really clean and self-conscious, and she is completely different from those coquettish women! ”

The little maid explained seriously.

"Hehe, those coquettish women are referring to the one who danced that day, right?" Chen Yin was amused by her appearance.

"Uh-huh, it's her, I'll tell you ......"

The little maid led the way in front, and at the same time said bad things about the red-haired woman, until she came to the door of the small hall where the guests were reluctantly leaving, and finally did not forget to stare at it: "Sister Nana is really good......

"Okay, I got it." Chen Yin smiled helplessly, and quickly pushed away Mumen Mountain and stretched in.

"Whew...... This little guy ...... It's really tough. Leaning against the wooden door, Chen Yin breathed a sigh of relief.

"You are Your Excellency Chen Yin, right?" A young dwarf stood up from the couch.

"Well, that's me. That one...... Got news? Chen Yin suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask the name of the white-bearded dwarf.

"Yes, the Great Elder wants to see you." The young dwarf respectfully said, "Allow me to lead the way for you. ”

"Oh, good." Chen Yin nodded and set off with the dwarf.

But as soon as he walked out of the door of the hotel, Chen Yin felt strange.

"Huh? How to get this way? Isn't the firearms workshop over there? Chen Yin asked, pointing in the direction of the trading area.

"Yes, Your Excellency, but the Great Elder doesn't go back to that kind of place, and his identity is relatively special, according to the agreement, he can't appear in the major spheres of influence, so you can only go and see him."

"Oh, that's right." Chen Yin's heart moved slightly, and he became vigilant.

After leaving the central area with many pedestrians, the young dwarf took Chen Yin into a carriage and followed the West Gate Road out of the Golden Harbor.

But they didn't go far, just a dozen kilometers west of Golden Harbor, on a hill at the top of a huge dwarven-style fortress.

"Mount Galkid, this is our closest settlement to the Golden Harbor, where the Great Elder is waiting for you."

“…… Did he say anything? Chen Yin said tentatively.

"I'm sorry, I only know that the Great Elder is here because of the firearms, and I don't know the rest."

"Oh, that's good." Chen Yin nodded.

After that, there was no word all the way.

The carriage soon reached the top of the mountain, and under the guidance of the young dwarf, the guards in heavy armor and armed muskets only cast a puzzled look at Chen Yin, but that was all, they let them go all the way without even asking.

It seems that this young dwarf is quite high?

Chen Yin secretly wrote it down.

After a few minutes, the young dwarf pointed to an inconspicuous wooden door in the corridor and said, "The Great Elder is waiting for you inside, and then you can only go by yourself, Your Excellency." ”

With that, the young dwarf took his leave.

"Oh...... Good. Chen Yin tentatively knocked on the door.

"Knock knock."

"Please come in." An old voice came from inside the room.

"Excuse me." Chen Yin gently pushed open the wooden door.

It was a typical dwarven room, with all kinds of metal objects hanging on the walls, including swords, shields, and even a huge bronze cannon in the center of the room, making this small room extremely crowded.

"You're the one who inquired about the 'Worm Sleeps', right?" The old dwarf, whose eyebrows were white, slowly took off his glasses and didn't clean up the messy table, "I heard that you also brought knowledge about airtightness?" ”

“…… Yes, I want to trade the knowledge of the musket for the location of the place where the worm sleeps. Chen Yin said respectfully.

"I don't know where you got to find out about our dwarves, but I have a few things to say." The Great Elder scratched the folds on his face that could trap flies, and his cloudy eyes were aimed in Chen Yin's direction.

"First of all, we don't need the technology for airtightness."

Chen Yin was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something, but the Great Elder raised his hand slightly, signaling Chen Yin to listen to him.

"Secondly, even if I tell you about the 'Sleeping Place', you still won't see anything when you go." The Great Elder seemed a little tired, and the speed of his voice slowed down again.

"Because you don't have a 'key', you can't open the door of Angela without a 'key', and naturally you can't find any traces of 'worms'."

"Keys?" Chen Yin was stunned for a moment, pulled down the crow standing on his shoulder, and asked eagerly, "And the key?" Why didn't you tell me? ”

"Keys? I don't remember McT...... What kind of key is designed by the owner? The crow also looked puzzled.

"You ......" Chen Yin turned his head and looked at the Great Elder with a look of disbelief.

"Oh, young man, I don't know why you trust that machine spirit so much, but I will never lie, because we dwarves are the builders of Angela's Gate, and the key is kept in our temple."

The Great Elder said slowly, "So whoever you are, whether you have intentionally or unintentionally found out the secret guarded by our dwarven clan, I just want to say that please leave, the dwarven clan swears to protect Angela's secret forever. ”

"Angela......?" Chen Yin was stunned.

"Quack, this name is all outflowing? It seems that Lao Ke is not idle. Crow Clinton thought for himself.

"Who is Old Ke?" Chen Yin was completely confused.

"Cthun, an ancient god ......" Crow Clinton looked at Chen Yin with a playful expression.

"How can there be a god ...... in this world" The disbelief on Chen Yin's face gradually disappeared, and was replaced by shock: "Wait! The old gods you are talking about...... Divine Power Crystal!? ”

"Yes." Clinton flapped his wings and broke free from Chen's grasp.

"No wonder you said I would know...... Chen Yin muttered a few words, and when he looked at the Great Elder again, he already had a determined expression.

"Please be sure to tell me the news of the 'Sleeping Place', and I will do my best to meet your requirements no matter what you propose...... For example, I have a more powerful ****** recipe and a more complete theory of thermal weapon design...... There are many more things that I can't think of for a while, I ......"

Before Chen Yin could finish speaking, the Great Elder interrupted him with a slight cough: "I heard, what you want to talk about are things like ********** and nitrocellulose, right?" We still keep this part of the knowledge inheritance. ”

"Huh?" Chen Yin was stunned, "But ......"

"The younger generation of dwarves are unaware of the technologies stored in the Sacred Mountain, and of course they have proven to be useless. Even if we dwarves have technical problems, we will only ask the Church of Light for help. ”

The Great Elder said with a serene face, "So whatever you can offer, it will not exceed what the Holy Light Church can give us. However, the secret of the 'Sealed Demon Land' is something that we dwarves have had to protect for thousands of years, do you understand? ”

“…… But? Chen Yin had vaguely known that the dwarves had a close relationship with the Holy Light Church before, but he really didn't expect that the high-level leaders of the two families would be so close.

"For the sake of you helping the church resist the rebellion, I'm going to tell you these things. So ......"

"Report!"

Suddenly, a dwarf with heavy armor rushed in and interrupted the Great Elder's words.

“…… What's in a hurry? Don't see me meeting guests? The Great Elder said displeased.

"Report ...... Report to the Great Elder! The Holy Mountain, the Holy Mountain has been attacked! ”

"What!?" The Great Elder stood up in surprise, "Who is the attacker?" What about the losses? ”

"The attacker was a woman, and the 'key' was snatched ...... loss by that woman!"
