The huge portal stands in the middle of the subterranean space, and the dwarven-style construction looks very simple and simple, but at this point the portal is no longer functional.

"Since there is such a portal, the dwarves must have mined minerals here and sent back to the main material plane. ”

"That's true, I don't know at what point in time they came, so we still have to be careful. Don't mess around here, if you start the portal again, you can get out of anything. 」

If this half-plane exists to seal the demi-artifact, and the dwarves have mined and built such a city before that, and then they have since left, there is no guarantee that the dwarves will not be mindful of it. In the impression of happy encounters, although the dwarves written in the book are down-to-earth and duty-bound, they also have a special obsession with treasure.

If it really comes and goes after that, there will be a problem that haunts him. Why did the dwarves evacuate? There are still too many benefits to be made in an empty city, but there are no people or things left.

"So do you have any idea why this city is in ruins? ”

"Hunch isn't omniscient, I just know what's going on here, so let's investigate it a little. 」

But even so, there is almost nothing to use as a reference, whether it is traces or leftovers, and this is true along the way. After all, this is a relic from thousands of years ago, and even if you meet a happy encounter, you will have a little dabbling in archaeology, but without modern means, he can't do anything about this dust.

The instincts of the happy encounter are more accurate to what is happening more recently, and the ruins of such a long time ago have long exceeded the limits of his abilities.

In this regard, prophecy spells that are fixed to work with mages and priests are generally superior.

In order to prevent others from blindly searching for what to trigger, only a few dedicated scouts and happy encounters began to explore.

The underground space is large, so it can be seen that it is expanded to accumulate items. At this time, there were still some materials, most of which were already rotting, and they were all able to rot in this cold and confined space, presumably for a long time.

Or maybe it means that the dwarves may be in a hurry to leave, otherwise why would the dwarves give up these things.

It's not just food and other materials here, a large number of Qingxuan ice ingots are neatly piled aside, even if they are sold for a pound of 100 gold coins, there are tens of thousands of gold Qingxuan ice ingots here.

Sumei Smart was admiring it in front of the pile of green ice ingots at this time, so that the happy meeting couldn't help but be reminded.

"Don't be in a hurry to touch it, what if it's a trap?"

"Hahaha, how is this possible, it is impossible for those dwarves to use such a valuable mineral as a trap, they are the most stingy. ”

Laughing and saying that it was impossible, Sumesmart just took a piece from a stack of green ice ingots, which was still crystal clear despite being covered in dust.

This is probably the finest material.

"Well, nothing happened. I've already seen it with detection magic, and there is no magic aura on it. ”

「...... Probably my delusion? I'm going to build a golem and leave me some of the rest. 」

"You've never learned how to construct a body, it's not taught in school. ”

"After breaking the self-destruct device, I can copy the technology inside, and the dwarf's technology is just and simple, even beginners can learn it steadily. 」

For the time being, put aside the Sumesmart, who kept putting the Qingxuan Ice Ingot into the dimensional bag, and continued to wander around in the underground space.

After a while, he finally found a clear mural.

It depicts the emblem of Moradin the Soul Smith, the main god of the dwarves, a model hammer and miniature anvil in pitch black. In addition to this, there are also images of the dwarves' daily life (mining and forging), and dwarven songs are written in dwarven script below.

Xi Xiangyu thought that the depiction of ordinary daily life would not have any meaning, but when he turned to leave, he suddenly realized a very important message on the mural.

In addition to weapons, they are armor, or siege weapons, and where is the shadow of daily life in the murals depicting life? How can normal life make so many items for battle, and what are they making these for?

Sending war resources outward, or the core of the half-plane of the Raiders.

Xi Xiangyu thought about it, or the latter is more likely.

After turning around, I didn't find anything, after all, this is not a good time to trigger the mechanism to open the portal again and die, so there is nothing to do.

"I have some suspicions after investigating, and I will first state that I am not responsible for this, that this place is too old to the limit of my ability, and that I am not as smart as my pet. 」

"Anyway, it's something that doesn't matter, and when we empty this place, we'll continue to go to the core. ”

"The dwarves must have arrived before the closure of this half-plane, and they have been clearing, dwelling, and living here for a long time, long enough for them to build such a city. It was then used to seal the demigods, and they left in desperation. 」

Altruistic people are either stupid or crazy, and no matter what kind of collective there is, there is no guarantee that everyone's hearts will go together.

"They were in charge of making the golems we saw the other day, and some of them probably left special procedures in the golems, so the dwarves are back again. This time their main purpose was to find the demigods at the core, but for some reason they gave up or failed, so they disappeared again. In this way, I think it is important why the dwarves disappear for the second time, and if we don't figure it out, we are likely to encounter the same danger. 」

"The dwarf spent so much effort to get the demigod again, but finally gave up, does this mean that the demigod can't see the light of day?

After listening to the conjecture of Xi Xiangyu, and then thinking about the effect of the semi-artifact that Xi Xiangfeng had said to her, Allen's heart retreated. However, Sumersmart's fighting spirit was even higher.

"What are you afraid of, the reason the dwarves left was because they were too weak to get the treasure. Unlike us, these dolls and elemental creatures are no match for us at all, and there is no reason to give up at all. ”

"Heh, the main combat power is you, since you think so, let's move on. 」

After all the treasures had been looted, the group finally left the city and continued on their way. Unbeknownst to them, just as they left the city, the portal under the steel mill shone again.
