There may be some differences from what Leon expected, and the state of Molten Iron City is not as nervous as he thought. The city was at the heart of the Fortress Project, and from the moment it was built, André had been prepared for the trials it would face, not to mention the large number of nezumen, and the stubborn dwarves believed that with the resources and equipment of the Molten Iron City today, it would take a lot of work for an adult dragon or two to really destroy the city.

However, this does not mean that André will reveal his cards like the humans under his command, and like other dwarves, the Archduke of the Hammer is a complete secrecyist, and even the warriors tasked with wielding the war machines he forges often do not understand the impact of their work on normal warfare. This explains why in the early days of the Nezumi plague, the Hammer Lords and even the nobles of the Molten Iron City fled in large numbers, and if they really understood what kind of extravagant defense systems the city under the dwarves were, I am afraid that these escapees would regret it to be difficult to attach.

"Come on, come on, I'll see if you can touch the city walls!" On the tallest tower on the walls of the Molten Iron City, Grand Duke Hammer propped up the battlements with his hands, and looked viciously at the army of rat men gathered outside the city. If you don't consider the wooden bench under his feet, Andre at this time is a heroic appearance, but Calus next to the dwarf can't help but smile when he sees his old friend leaning on the stool to see the outside of the city wall.

"You look excited? Why, you think you have too many weapons and rust in the warehouse? I told you I know arms dealers from many countries, and the quality of your men's equipment is ......" The Demon Descendant said in a teasing tone, of course he didn't come to resell the arms, but if the dwarves wanted to, no one would mind making extra money, would they?

"Hmph, I don't want my work to become a tool for killing. The dwarf blew his beard disdainfully, "Molten Iron City has basically not been invaded on such a large scale since it was built, I just want to use these rats to test whether the system I designed still has any loopholes, and pervasive attacks like them are the best way to test the actual capabilities of the defense system." I'm not interested in killing, but I don't mind ending their suffering if they beg to die. ”

"If you let another of my fellow disciples hear this, I will not be very happy. That guy is still naïve enough to turn these nezumi back into normal people. The voice of the cursed crow suddenly came from the shadows, and the crow that had fallen there turned into a young man in a gray robe at some point.

The dwarf turned his head to look at the wizard, who was not very fond of the casual disdain that the crow had at the mention of his fellow disciple, and said, "We are not you, and we don't understand so many strange things. But if I knew a way to restore these poor fellows to their original state, I would give it a try, no matter how costly. If you've ever stood on the edge of the felt, you'll understand, boy, that it's much harder to create and save than to destroy. ”

The crow shrugged, he didn't want to argue with the other, salvation and destruction, this kind of proposition everyone has their own opinion, and who can say whether each opinion is right or wrong? It was Krus, the demon's eyes flashing with ominous flames, as if he wanted to say something to the dwarf, but he immediately remembered that there was something more important to ask than this discussion.

"So, can your Banshee Lady still see the death here?" If it weren't for Lynn's prediction of the death of the entire molten iron, the Raven wouldn't have come back to talk to the Hammer Grand Duke again, and he wouldn't have befriended Krus and seen the truth about the Fortress Project together in the city's underground. But at the end of the day, the wizard's original intention was to prevent the banshee from seeing the future of death. In order to confirm that what he did was effective, after the Hammer Grand Duke had finished talking about the events of the year, the cursed crow went back and asked Lin what she saw in her eyes now.

"Ah, it should be solved. She didn't know exactly where the threat she saw came from, but according to her, death had narrowed down from the entire city to a very small number of people, who would have died in battle today, or simply had just reached the end of their lives. The wizard nodded, bringing good news.

"yes, that's pretty good. By the way, I have a question, if I deliberately protect those who should have died in battle, will they still die?" the Demon Descendant asked with interest. Maybe it's because of the race, Calus is always very positive about fate-related issues, which may have something to do with the devil's instinct in his body.

But this time the crow simply shook his head, and he pulled a man-tall staff from his robe. The main body of the staff looks like a rugged ancient branch, and at the top of the staff is a carved crow with six wings, which are folded, slightly opened and unfolded, and two scarlet gems are set in the crow's eyes to give off a palpitating light. This staff feels like there's only one word to describe it, ominous.

"In my teacher's words, it's better not to look at death and fate too clearly. I also think that there is always something unknown in this world to be interesting, even though I have already stepped on this taboo myself. The sorcerer smiled self-deprecatingly, turned his head to look at the rats in the distance of the wall, and continued in a voice that only he could hear, "Stupidity is sometimes a blessing. ”

"It doesn't matter, the sun is going down, and we should be ready to welcome these guests. The dwarf turned his back to the two and waved his hand at one of the sentry posts below the tower, giving some kind of command. "By the way, do you know why I named this city Molten Iron?"

Raven and Krus looked at each other in confusion, they didn't quite understand why the Hammer Guild was mentioning this at this time. But they don't have to understand, because when the sun goes down, darkness doesn't cover the earth, and it's not because the moonlight is bright enough, in fact, it won't be seen at all tonight. "I've been guarding the Mother of the Crypt for so long, and I'm not getting nothing, come and see, the technology I got from that damn monster!" shouted the dwarf excitedly.

At the same time, Bakham, who was cleaning up the lone rat as he approached the Molten Iron City, looked up at the city in the distance and muttered unconsciously, "That's ...... What!" In front of the young elf's eyes, the city in the distance emitted a white light that only drifted iron would have, and it looked as if the entire molten iron city was made of flowing iron pulp!
