The bottomless abyss in which Fia lives is similar to the fire elemental plane, with blazing heat, and in such an environment, even the Abyssal Web will be greatly affected - so magic items are not common in the level she lives in.

Moreover, at such high temperatures, even weapons cannot be used for long - which is why Fia places so much emphasis on the metal produced by the fire crab - this metal, which Fia named Cold Copper, can be mixed with steel in a one-to-one ratio to create extremely heat-resistant weapons, and can even be used by a flame giant for a lifetime without having to be replaced!

"Good!"

"This is the metal produced by the fire crab in the past few days, you take it first!"

"As for what I need, I need to think about it. ”

Seeing Fia's expression, Ron immediately understood the value of the metal refined by the fire crab to the other party - naturally there was much more room for Ron to operate - so Ron gave the metal refined by the fire crab in the past few days to the other party to beat the other party.

And the flame giant Fia also immediately understood that the materials in the abyss could not meet the needs of the other party - after careful consideration, Fia threw a bomb at Ron.

"I know you're looking for a fourth divinity, and I can provide the direction of the owner of the water divinity!"

Fia was obviously not simple———— Fia's counterattack made Ron immediately understand, both of them had their own hole cards - so the two immediately thought in silence and immediately bargained.

After about half an hour of bargaining, Ron and Fia the Flame Giant reached an agreement - every other month, Fia would send his men to trade with Ron, exchanging the resources in the bottomless abyss for the metal refined by the fire crab, and at the same time, Fia needed to tell Ron the location of the owner of the water divinity as an advance payment.

Both sides were quite happy with the result, with the only caveat being that Ron needed to get Culkin enough copper ingots every month - which was also a significant expense for Ron.

"Note that from next month, your emissary will still appear in this magma, and he will be my emissary of the deal with you. ”

As the preparatory deity of the halfling, Ron naturally has certain rights - including driving the halfling to serve himself - of course, with rights comes duty, and Ron needs to ensure the safety of the halfling who serves him and provide a high reward.

And Long, who was appointed as Ron's agent, understood what Ron meant after a little thought—he learned the dignity of Ron's status from the respect of the Elders—and Long knew that this was his chance, so he stepped forward and accepted Ron's assignment immediately.

"Hello Lord Fia, I'm Taka, and I'm glad to be Lord Ron's agent to make a deal with your emissary. ”

"I hope we have a good time working together!"

"Very good, happy to work with, we'll see you next month!"

Two incandescent dots of light on the circular fireball representing the head of the Flame Giant looked at Long, and Fia sank into the magma, and after a while, she couldn't even feel her breath.

"Lord Ron, it seems that there is a huge risk in trading with such a powerful demon!"

As soon as the Flame Giant vanished, Ryu turned to Ron and said with some concern.

"This is a flame giant, just living in the bottomless abyss, not a demon!"

"In the abyss, his strength may be comparable to a weak divine power, but in the main material plane, his strength has weakened, and I am enough to protect myself!"

"You just need to trade with his messengers, and I'll send you the supplies once a month. ”

"As for the reward, I will never treat you badly. ”

Reassuring Long, Ron explained the matter and promised a reward - and then, accompanied by Long, Ron paid enough money to buy all the copper ingots produced by the Ann tribe - these copper ingots were enough for Culkin to eat for three months, and then a new batch of copper ingots would be produced by the Ann tribe.

As for the metal that Culgin refined, it was transported by Odom - in fact, Ron had already decided to create a portal in Arnrock - after all, it would not be long before the abyss would be producing a steady stream of materials from the volcano.

Ron, on the other hand, will travel to the Dark Realm, where the Flame Giant's possessor of the water divinity is now trapped in the Dark Realm, and according to the Flame Giant's description, this Dark Realm lies beneath the Supreme Forest, the territory of the Dark Elves.

Unlike the Earth where Ron once lived, the continent of Faeron has an underground world as vast as the land - this is the Dark Land.

Generally speaking, the Dark Regions are located at a depth of about two kilometers underground, and are divided into several levels - the first level is mainly made up of many natural caverns connected to each other, including ordinary rock caves, large ice caves, or caves formed by fungi or giant animal bones.

The dark realms of eternal darkness, where only a few minerals or shimmering fungi provide light sources, are also teeming with life - strange plants and animals are common, and most of the sapient races live in the first layer, including but not limited to the Dark Elves, Eye Demons, Dwarves, Mind Flayers, Underground Gnomes, and Nezumen.

"Karas!"

"Did you find anything?"

Riding a nimble cave lizard, the dark elf warrior Gushu leads his vassals to patrol the territory of the city-state - the mounts on the ground in the dark region are naturally useless, and the teleportation technique is also quite dangerous - there are too many poisonous gases, ice water, and man-eating beasts in the caves, and under this premise, the cave lizard is the best mount.

Cave lizards are trained to obey their master's orders and walk freely and silently on the walls of the cave with their wrinkled claws, which has a considerable advantage in caves, as underground caves must have a three-dimensional mode of movement compared to two-dimensional space on the ground.

"Nothing has been discovered, Lord Gu Xiu!"

Cave lizards have dark vision and are able to see creatures in the dark - trained cave lizards can warn their owners, but the cave lizards below them do not provide any warning.

"Good, keep on your guard!"

"This is a joint order of the First and Second Families, and an oracle of the Goddess!"

The cave lizards under him didn't say anything - Gu Xiu controlled the cave lizards to patrol the cave, and then returned to the city with his vassals - for some reason, recently, the dark elf city of Redern City to which he belonged suddenly strengthened its defenses and patrols, and even he, a high-ranking member of the first family: the Bane family, was sent out to patrol the territory.

Damn Saberui, when I was a slave warrior, was Guxiu a slave warrior?

There was a complaint in his heart, but Gu Xiu couldn't show it—all he could do was perfunctory things every day.

What he didn't notice was that in the shadow of the cave he had just inspected, a small red dot was moving briskly. 8)
