Chapter 70: I Can Touch Your—
"A silver coin?"
The dwarf looked at the Mithril coin in Downson's hand with some hesitation, rubbed his eyes, and muttered uncertainly, "Not really, this color is a bit like ......"
He swallowed those two words, obviously still a little incredulous, so he couldn't help but lean over, and put his face in front of Townsen's hand without hesitation.
He doesn't have to bend over, his height is just right.
"The more you look at it, human, where did you get that?"
"My name is Towngo." Tang Sen didn't answer his question, and said with a smile: "It's strange, with the sensitivity of dwarves to metal, you didn't even recognize what this was at a glance?" ”
"Of course I recognize it!" The dwarf didn't look at Town, just kept staring at the Mithril coin, "But I've never seen it with my own eyes. ”
"I can touch your—"
"Absolutely." Without waiting for him to finish, Tang Sen generously placed Mithril in his hand.
Giving wealth to a dwarf in the wilderness is dangerous, after all, dwarves are greedy in their nature.
But Townsend wasn't worried.
Dwarves are actually a race that values integrity, they are good at mining ores, making iron tools, but not good at farming, their living needs basically come from trade with other races, integrity is the foundation of the dwarves, so they will respect and maintain the rules of trade, unless the temptation is too great...
For example, many years ago, the elves asked the dwarven craftsmen to make a crown with the elven diamond, and in the face of the elven diamond, the dwarven greed would prevail, and they broke the contract, and thus became a feud with the elves.
Even so, in order to maintain their integrity, they lied that it was the elves who were unwilling to pay for the minting, and not that the dwarves deliberately broke the contract.
However, the elf diamond is something that even the gods are tempted by, and Tang Sen doesn't think that Mithril can have such a big temptation, even if it does, he will not die, at most he will lose a little Mithril, and Tang Sen is still willing to take this little risk.
The dwarf's fingers were thick, but now they showed a delicate side, and he carefully picked up the coin, and his face showed an undisguised look of excitement.
"So light, but so strong, it's Mithril!"
The dwarf couldn't put it down, "I've heard the legend of Mithril countless times, once the Mithril produced by Meria made the whole world focus on the great Turin clan, whether it was humans or elves, they brought a lot of gold just to exchange for a Mithril creation, alas-"
He paused, the fall of Moria was a pain for every dwarf, and he stopped the subject, and said:
"But one day we will regain the riches of the Lonely Mountain and return to Moria."
"Recapture the Lonely Mountain?" Townsend chewed on this sentence, and it was clear that it meant that the plot of The Hobbit had not yet begun at this time, and the plot of The Lord of the Rings was sixty years later.
After the fall of Meria, the dwarves of the Durin clan moved to the Lonely Mountain, where they established a glorious kingdom and earned a mountain of riches, but it attracted the dragon Smaug!
Just as Meria fell to the Flame Demon, the Lonely Mountain also fell under the dragon flame of Smaug, and the Dwarves of Durin were forced to flee from the Lonely Mountain, and a large part of them joined the Dwarven clans of the Gray Mountains and Iron Hills, while those who did not want to be obsessed with the Lonely Mountain, including the royal family of the Dwarves of Durin, were exiled to Middle-earth, and eventually settled temporarily in the Blue Mountains in the northwest.
The Dwarf in front of him clearly belonged to the one who had been exiled to the Blue Mountains.
Countless thoughts flowed through Town's mind, and when he figured out the timeline he was in, he had to start thinking about how he was going to complete the procurement task and what he could get in this world.
Although Middle-earth is a world with gods, there don't seem to be many things that are really worth taking away and that are helpful to you.
The most famous is naturally the Elven Diamond, an immortal gem forged from the brilliance of the Twin Sacred Trees, which was even coveted by the gods, which directly led to countless tragedies, but in the final analysis, this is just a beautiful gem, and the light of the Twin Sacred Trees is a mysterious thing that has no meaning to Tang Sen.
Moreover, it is too difficult to find the Pokemon Diamond.
The second is the Ring, in order to control Middle-earth, Sauron deceived the elves into creating three elven rings, seven dwarven rings, and nine human rings, all of which have magical powers, and the strongest elven rings can even control floods, or summon flames.
Sauron gave them to elves, dwarves, and humans, but secretly created a One Ring at Mount Doom, infusing most of his soul and power into it, and using it to command all the other nineteen rings.
This also caused the nine human kings to fall into the Ringwraith, and the dwarves only cared about their treasures, so they became more and more greedy, digging too deep in Moria, and unleashing the fire demons.
As for the elves, they were not affected much, after all, the magic ring is an elven craft, and the three elven rings are fine as long as they do not appear in front of the Supreme Ring.
The story of the Lord of the Rings trilogy revolves around the destruction of the One Ring, which should be in the Misty Mountains now, and it is not difficult to find, but—
The stronger this thing is, the greater the role it can play, and like Townsen, it is at most used for stealth and increases some lifespan.
This is not unacceptable, the key is that the One Ring has only one owner, that is, Sauron, it contains Sauron's soul and power, and will always bewitch those who have the Ring, to be honest, Townsend does not think that he can withstand that kind of bewitchment.
He was never a pure man, and he didn't think he had the Hobbit magic resistance.
So it's best to stay away from the One Ring.
The rest of the treasures are all ordinary goods, such as some divine blades, but in Tang Sen's opinion, they are all far from Triton's sword, and as for the armor, the best is the Mithril armor... How much you want.
It would be nice if the Mithril created by the Mithril Ring could be taken away by itself, and he could have stored a large amount of Mithril, but he couldn't, the reward for the procurement task was to choose a thing that he had been in contact with from this world, and the Mithril Ring belonged to the gift of the world, and it only existed after he came to this world.
After thinking about it carefully, Tang Sen found that although this world was of a high level, there was really nothing comparable to the Aztec gold coin, after all, its curse could play a huge role no matter where it was.
You can't smuggle into Valinor, find a Vera or Maia to touch them, and kidnap them, right?
Not to mention whether the creator god Iluvita agrees or not, even if he succeeds, what posture should he take to face a god? How can you ensure that the other party will not crush you to death with a slap?
Unless he could fully control the other party, Townsend would never choose a living thing.
"Wait—"
Townsend suddenly felt a move in his heart.
"Living creatures?"
