Chapter Twenty-Three: The Patriarch
Winston asked, "Wesker, what are your problems, can I help you?"
Wesker hesitated. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 "Two days ago, a monster appeared in the cave where we lived, it injured the clansmen and occupied our forging room, and the patriarch asked us to go to other tribes in the Iron Ridge Mountains to find helpers to destroy that monster. ”
Monsters meant new abilities in Winston's eyes, and they were just the right way to get closer to the dwarves, so he eagerly asked, "What kind of monster is it?" ”
Wesker said, "It's a bull monster with a flame that is hard to deal with. ”
Winston was a little puzzled, "Can't you beat it with the strength of your clan?"
"That guy is a little taller, and if it weren't for the unapproachable flames that burned all over his body, I would have been able to knock it to pieces!"
"Although this is a branch of the Iron Ridge Mountain Range, there is still a long way to go over, and there are monsters rampant on the way, so it is really inconvenient to cross. Can you take me to see this monster, and maybe I can help you destroy it," Winston suggested to Wesker.
Hearing Winston's words, Brute Hammer immediately rejoiced: "It would be great if you could destroy him, and save us all that far." ”
Wesker hesitated, "But ......"
Brute Hammer interrupted him: "Don't be, the tall man is so good at archery, with his help, he will definitely be able to defeat the monster." ”
Wesker was really helpless about the brute hammer, so he had to compromise and say to Winston: "For some reason, the patriarch has a great prejudice against the human race, and when he arrives in the clan, he will wronged you to disguise himself as a half-elf." ”
"Half-elves, why don't you just disguise yourself as elves?" Hammer asked, a little puzzled.
Wesker said angrily: "Stupid, elves' ears are different from those of the human race!"
Brute Hammer grabbed his head and smiled: "Yes, in my opinion, there is no difference, they are all thin skin and tender meat, not a gentleman at all!"
"Stupid, you can't say this to your face!"
Wesker slapped Hammer in the back of the head again.
"Really?" Hammer laughed nonchalantly.
The corners of Winston's mouth twitched slightly, and at the point of nerve bar, he could be regarded as subduing these two dwarves.
The dwarven cave was very secretive, and Winston followed the two of them around the mountains several times before reaching the entrance to the cave.
It's a low hole hidden among the vines, and if you don't pay attention, you think it's a nest made by some animal. Seeing the two dwarves stooping over and skillfully walking in, Winston had to believe that this was the dwarf's safe place.
Winston was almost half-crawling to enter, and it was very dark, but with the help of the True Vision Dragon Pupil, Winston could still see his surroundings clearly.
The passage is narrow and low, and there are still traces of axe chiseling on the stone walls on both sides.
"Be careful here, I don't know why this place is so short, it's so uncomfortable for me to walk here. ”
Hammer reminded Winston of his complaints.
After walking a long way, it was only when Winston felt that his waist was about to break that a red light appeared in front of him, and the group quickened out of the tunnel.
It was supposed to be in the belly of a mountain range, with a huge chasm in the middle, and red-golden magma flowing below.
There were two paths in front of Winston, a narrow stone bridge that flew on either side of the chasm, and a staircase carved out of the stone wall that led down to a stone platform next to the lava.
There are two shallow ditches above the stone platform, in which the magma from the ground and the clear water flowing from the stone wall flow separately. The iron-striking utensils and stoves were arranged along the two shallow ditches. It was supposed to be the dwarves' forge room, but the monster they were talking about didn't appear, so it was probably hidden in some corner.
"Let's go back to the village and meet the elders first, and then we'll clean up the monsters down there. Wesker said, pointing to the other side of the stone bridge.
The stone bridge is narrow enough for one person to walk, and the heat from the lava below makes you feel like you're in a steamer.
After crossing the bridge, there was another low hole, but fortunately it was not very long, and Winston followed the dwarf's footsteps for only ten minutes or so before he came to the exit.
Surrounded by mountains, there is such a beautiful paradise, with mountain springs dingdong, green grass, and low earthen embryo houses neatly arranged together.
"It's Wesker and Brute Hammer back. ”
"So fast, and a tall man, who is he?"
"Why don't you see support from other races?"
The return of Brute Hammer and Wesker has caused a heated discussion among everyone,
"Hey, Brutehammer, you weren't scared back, were you? ”
A dwarf leaned against the doorframe and sneered, drinking.
"Shut up Weber, the brave Hammer Lord will not be intimidated by anything. ”
Brute Hammer craned his neck in retort.
Wiskla pulled the excited Brute Hammer and persuaded, "Okay Brute Hammer, we have to hurry to the Patriarch." ”
Brute Hammer shook his fist angrily and said, "Wesker, if you hadn't pulled me, I would definitely have taught him a good lesson, really!
Under the curious gaze of the dwarves, Winston came to a stone hut in the far middle of the tribe.
The Brute Hammer casually broke in, "Grandpa Patriarch, we're back!"
"Oh, it's a brute hammer, why did you come back so soon?
The dwarven patriarch was an old man with a gray beard, leaning on the stone table in front of him.
Wesker explained, "Patriarch, this is our half-elf friend we met on the way, and he is willing to help us deal with the monsters. ”
"Winston salutes you. ”
Winston saluted the old dwarf according to continental custom.
The old dwarf raised his head, looked at Winston Winton with cloudy eyes, and sighed, "How many years have I been, I can't imagine that I will be able to see the elves again when I am dying." ”
The old dwarf stood up with the help of a sturdy guard beside him, took Winston's hand, and said, "Good boy, come with me." ”
Winston glanced back at Wesker, and seeing that he didn't prompt, he was relieved to follow in the old dwarf's footsteps.
There was a secret door hidden in the small room that led to the ground, and under the guidance of the old dwarf, Winston came to a wide platform.
The platform is neatly paved with stone slabs, and there are weapon racks neatly placed around it, with all kinds of knives, guns, axes, and axes, just like an ancient weapons exhibition field.
The old dwarf stopped, and now his waist was straight, and his cloudy eyes became as bright as stars, and he raised his eyebrows and said loudly, "You are not an elf!"
