"Can you two stop? I have some questions for you. ”

Ji Chen's words made both Erin and Tomodo stop, after all, Ji Chen was the first person to come here in thousands of years, and it was also their only hope to get out of trouble, which was still very face-saving.

Erin preemptively said, "If you have any questions, just ask, as long as you can get out of this damn place." ”

Seeing this, Ji Chen nodded and said the doubts in his heart: "What is the reason why you are locked up in this prison?" Or for what crime was he imprisoned? ”

"Prison?" Erin raised her eyebrows, "Where did you hear that this is not a so-called prison at all!" It's the place where the dead pervert used to imprison the test subject! It's an experimental workshop! ”

"The metal cage that locks us up can continuously absorb our energy, maintain and repair the seal, and it is not only not weak after thousands of years, but also strengthened a lot, it is simply inhumane!!"

"What's more, I didn't do anything at all! At most, I just scolded that dead pervert to my face, and then I was caught and locked up here! Just a few words locked me up for thousands of years!! What's the sin for this!! ”

The more Erin spoke, the more excited she became, and the grief and innocence on her face were about to overflow, which showed the heaviness of the grievances in her heart.

Hearing this, Ji Chen was also a little confused.

Just a few words to be locked up for thousands of years? That's too bad, isn't it?

"What about Tomodo?"

Hearing this, the dwarf Tomodor also said quietly.

"I didn't do anything, I just stole a few materials from that pervert."

Although Tomodo's face was also aggrieved, Ji Chen had a faint feeling that the so-called materials should not be an ordinary thing.

"That pervert you're talking about?"

"An old lich who is extremely perverted! The creatures and races held here are all its test subjects and materials, except for a few who have been innocently captured. ”

Hiss~

The lich is a creature that Ji Chen has also heard of, it is one of the supreme forms of the undead, and each lich is a powerful undead spellcaster, and is also very good at experimental transformation and evil magic.

Ji Chen pointed to the hideous-looking insect in the distance.

"What's that?"

"It's a cub of a Void Crawler, able to walk freely in the Void, extremely strong, it was already there when we came here, and it's dormant now."

Walking freely in the void?

Ji Chen's eyes became a little awe-inspiring, the void was not suitable for living creatures at all, it was full of void cracks and whirlpools, and if one was not careful, it would be devoured and cut.

Even if this void reptile is in its cub form, it is dozens of meters long, and I don't know how terrifying it will be in its adult form.

"And that winged snake-tailed creature is?"

"I know!"

This time, Tomodo began to answer, and was glared at by Erin, but said indifferently: "It's called Selim Angel." ”

"It's a Haiyuan Naga whose bloodline has changed, and it was already locked up here before we came, and it is estimated that it must have been tens of thousands of years at least, and it chose to enter deep dormancy three hundred years ago, in order to delay the loss of vitality."

Abyss Naga?

Isn't that a little bit related to the Naga berserker?

Ji Chen nodded knowingly.

However, Rao was still very shocked in his heart.

To be able to capture the level 79 epic Erin, and the level 78 epic Tomodo, as well as so many terrifying creatures that look strong, are really unimaginable.

And what he cares about the most is whether the lich is still alive?

If it knew that its experimental workshop had been invaded, wouldn't it be necessary to lock Ji Chen up here as well?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder.

When he asked the question, Erin and Tomodo waved their hands absently, "That perverted lich hasn't been seen since we were locked in, and maybe it's already dead outside, after all, even a powerful lich wouldn't be willing to abandon so much experimental material." ”

When Ji Chen heard it, he felt that what he said made sense.

In addition to the Void Reptile and the Abyss Naga, among the hundreds of metal cages here, in addition to a dozen or so empty, dozens of strange creatures and races of all kinds were imprisoned.

It took a lot of effort and time to get the lich to catch them.

After thinking a lot, Ji Chen pondered for a moment, raised his head, and his eyes were like torches: "How can I save you?" ”

Hearing this, Erin and Tomodo's eyes lit up, and infinite surprise appeared on their faces.

Hurriedly said.

"Deeper down there is the lich's core lab, with the metal cage and the control switch for the seal."

"But before the seal is lifted, you still need to turn off the automatic defense circle left by the lich, otherwise you and we in the weakened period will be killed by the circle..."

Erin suppressed her excitement and excitement, and spoke as calmly as she could.

Seeing that they can get out of the cage and gain freedom that they have not been able to do for a long time, powerhouses of the level of Erin and Tomodo do are not much different from ordinary people.

The longer the lifespan, the more hopeless I feel in such a prison with no end in sight.

Ji Chen nodded, and memorized many details of what Erin said.

"That's all, the lich may have left something in there, you can scavenge it."

Hearing this, Ji Chen's eyes also lit up, is there something? Then he won't be sleepy.

A lich capable of imprisoning so many powerful creatures must be nothing short of what is left behind.

He is not greedy, just a few legendary treasures.

"Then there aren't any guards here?"

Erin shook her head, "No, that perverted lich is confident in his seal and doesn't leave any guards here. ”

"But if you have to say that there is, it seems that it has created a batch of low-level mutant skeletons in the secret realm of the original skeletons outside, which is used to cover up and protect the existence of this experimental workshop."

"Since you're able to get in, you've already met it."

Mutant skeletons?

Ji Chen suddenly realized that those abnormal skeletons were made by lichs, no wonder even Thorin attacked.

He suppressed his thoughts and looked at Erin and Tomodo again, serious expressions.

"Next, it's time to talk specifically about the reward I can get for helping you out of trouble."

Hearing this, the elves and dwarves also became serious, they naturally knew that there was no pie falling from the sky, and everything was gained and lost.

Erin pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The reward I said earlier is still true, I can give you two powerful seven-star treasures, and once I get out of the suppression here, these two treasures can be taken out through the space tunnel." ”

"Other than that, you're supposed to be a lord, right?" A shrewd flash flashed in Erin's eyes.

Ji Chen nodded noncommittally.

Seeing this, Erin became more confident.

"In that case, you said before that the elven clan has now established a fairly strong empire, so as a lord, you shouldn't refuse the help and support of an elven empire, right?"

Even Ji Chen had to admit that the weight of this condition was very heavy, and he had no doubt about the truth of what Erin said.

The help of the Elven Empire, even if only for a short period of time, was enough to make the crown of the ocean take off.

It was a condition he could not refuse.

However, this is not enough!

Ji Chen looked at Erin, who was full of confidence, and slowly shook his head.

"I have one condition in addition to these."

"What is it?"

Erin is worthy of being an epic elf hero, and her color does not change after listening to it, and she is very decisive and authentic.

"If my territory, or mine, is in some kind of devastating crisis that I can't handle, then you're going to do everything you can to solve it."

"Oh?" Erin narrowed her eyes, and after only a moment of thought, she agreed, "Okay, I'll promise you this condition." ”

"Take the elven hero: Erin. Apocalis's name is an oath that when you or your territory is in crisis, I will do everything I can to solve a crisis for you, is that enough? ”

The long-term confinement made her yearn for freedom extremely, no one knew what a terrible thing it was to be trapped in this palm-sized cage for thousands of years, and there was a twittering dwarf, which made her almost crazy.

Now that she sees the hope of going out, her bottom line has been reduced to the lowest.

Seeing that Erin readily agreed, Ji Chen also nodded, and did not put forward more conditions.

The so-called is to grasp a suitable scale between obtaining benefits and befriending the strong.

After completing the deal with Erin, the next step is the dwarf Tomodo.

"Is it my turn? Hurry up! Tomodo was naturally anxious when he saw that Erin, a little, could get out, and kept urging him like a naughty boy.

Ji Chen had no choice but to walk over with a helpless expression, "Your Excellency Tomodo, you can tell your conditions." ”

"I'm sure I don't have any treasures or anything like that." At the beginning, Tomodo said confidently, "Since the pointed ears promised before, then naturally I can't be left behind, I can help you create five treasures, the highest level is 6 stars, as long as I can build the land." ”

"Below the highest 6-star treasure? Isn't it okay to have 7 stars? ”

"Hey humans! Do you think the 7-star treasure is a cabbage on the side of the street? Even if you are a legendary blacksmith, it takes a lot of effort to create a 7-star treasure! ”

"Makes sense, but didn't you say you could help build ten? Why did it just shrink by half?"

"Ahem, it's just a quick mouth." Tomodo's old face turned red, and he said cheekily: "I'm so old, it's my life to build ten pieces of you!" ”

Erin was right, the dwarves were really a race with different hearts and mouths, and they couldn't be easily believed.

Ji Chen thought for a moment and asked Anina to take the dragon slaying sword over, and also took out the broken tip of the sword, "Your Excellency Tomodo, can you repair this treasure?" ”

As soon as Tomodo saw the Dragon Slaying Sword, his interest suddenly rose, although he couldn't touch it because of the seal, but his eyes lit up, staring tightly, and his expression soon relaxed, "Of course you can, although the damage is quite serious, it is relatively complete, and it is not a big problem for me." ”

Hearing this, Ji Chen also smiled, "Then repairing this big sword is counted as the first treasure." ”

"Then here comes the second condition..."

"I want you to teach some of your blacksmithing to the Crown of the Sea!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" As soon as the words fell, Tomodo almost jumped up, and immediately refused with a puffed face.

"The forging skills of the dwarven clan must not be spread to the outside world!!"

Ji Chen looked unexpected, and Tomodo's reaction was very intense.

Dwarves are notoriously stubborn and selfish, and are often reluctant to pay a lot of money to implore them to build some equipment, let alone teach them the art of forging their lives to other races.

"So I'm just saying part of it, I don't need advanced ones, I only need the lowest level of forging techniques, and I'll keep it absolutely secret."

"That doesn't work either!! No matter how much, it is against the teachings of the ancestors!! Tomodo didn't let go, holding his chest and blowing his beard, glaring.

"Well... Then we can't continue to talk. Ji Chen shook his head with pity and regret, turned around and walked away slowly.

"Hey, hey, human, don't go." Seeing Ji Chen walking away, Tomodo suddenly became anxious, and said loudly: "Only this is not good, except for this, everything else is fine!" ”

"Is there anything else you can give me other than the art of forging?" Ji Chen turned around and asked rhetorically.

"I have, I have—" Tomodo blushed suddenly, and he couldn't think of anything else he could give.

"You see, you can't say it yourself." Ji Chen shrugged his shoulders and turned around and walked away.

Call the people of the crown of the ocean and go towards the core laboratory, going farther and farther.

Seeing this, Tomodo became completely anxious, glared and shouted, "I can build six treasures for you!" ”

Ji Chen didn't look back.

"Seven pieces!"

"Eight pieces, that's the most!"

Ji Chen was indifferent, and his pace did not stop.

"Nine pieces... Ten pieces! ”

"Eleven pieces are always okay, right!?"

Ji Chen still didn't look back, and even talked and laughed with Alice and the others.

"Thirteen, fifteen!! Okay, okay, I'll promise you!! ”

Ji Chen raised his right hand to make everyone stop, and walked back with a smile, meeting Tomodo's stinky face.

"Ah, what a generous and helpful dwarf you are, Lord Tomodo."

"I'm so glad I had such a dwarven friend, it's my luck."

Tomodo glared, ignoring these flowers, and gritted his teeth with a straight face: "Cunning human! I knew you were scaring the great legendary blacksmith Tomodo! ”

After a few words of breath, Tomodo stopped.

Ji Chen said with a bitter conscience: "Think about it from another angle, isn't it worth using some low-level forging techniques to lift thousands of years of imprisonment?" ”

"If you hadn't met me today, you might have been locked up here, and if there was no accident, it would be difficult to escape for eternity, and your powerful forging technique would be buried in this cold place forever, wouldn't it be a pity?"

A sycophantic explanation made Tomodo look a little angry.

But he still said dissatisfiedly: "It's really sharp, human beings really like to quibble." ”

Seeing this, Ji Chen smiled again.

"With one more condition, you are not allowed to attack me or my army after you get out of trouble."

Tomodo's eyes widened again, and finally he hugged his chest and pouted: "Hmph, the great legendary blacksmith Tomodo disdains to attack a group of weak people!" ”
