Chapter 769: Heart of the Mountain

Because of the prayer for the dwarf king, because of the reverence for the dwarf king that has been passed down in the soul and blood, the dwarves of the Heavenly Soldier Valley have spent hundreds of years digging a magnificent palace in a mountain tens of thousands of meters high at the end of the Heavenly Soldier Valley.

For more than a thousand years, the dwarves dug the palace, expanded it, and decorated it with all their means.

An entire cliff thousands of meters high and thousands of meters wide has been carved into the entrance to the palace, and from left to right, twelve statues of the most famous dwarven kings in dwarven mythology are lined up, wearing war armor and holding war hammers, sitting majestically on their thrones, surrounded by thunder and lightning, surrounded by fire and dragons, and looking down on the vast square.

The square, in front of the palace gate, is a square with a length and width of 10,000 meters, and the earthy yellow boulders are polished to be as smooth as a mirror, and they are neatly paved into this huge square. The dwarves' natural craftsmanship is best reflected here, and the interface between the boulder and the boulder is so seamless that not even a thin piece of paper can be inserted.

Guarded by six statues of dwarven kings on the left and right, it is the official entrance to the palace.

The gate, which is more than 100 meters high and 20 meters wide, is extremely majestic - such a huge gate was specially built to facilitate the entry and exit of the dwarven king. After all, the dwarf king, the ordinary people who activate the bloodline of the dwarf king are seven or eight meters high, and once the bloodline of the primeval giant is activated, the dwarf king may reach a height of tens of meters, such a huge dwarf king, of course, needs a huge portal.

Moreover, this is also the custom of the dwarves. Perhaps because they were too small, the dwarves habitually built their idols and palaces to be particularly tall. The dwarves of the Valley of the Heavenly Soldiers are not bad, they only have more than a thousand years to build this palace, and in the Western Continent, the sacred land where the dwarves are said to have originated, the fanatical dwarves have even built statues as high as 10,000 meters in the long years. They hollowed out a mountain and carved it into what they believed in as the god of forging!

Walking into the gate of the palace, Lin Qi's eyes suddenly lit up, and then his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pinpoint.

This palace carved out in the belly of a mountain. The ground is paved with heavy gold! Pieces of one-foot-thick gold bricks are neatly put together on the ground, and the road under the feet is 20 meters wide, extending all the way forward for nearly a thousand meters.

And the walls on both sides and the ceiling overhead are all pure gold!

A gold brick as thick as a foot! Lin Qi felt that he was almost unconscious, where did these dwarves get so much gold?

A dwarven elder bowed to the barrel with dignity and difficulty. His fat belly barely touched the ground. The dwarven elder said angrily: "My king, we have found several huge gold veins in the Valley of Heavenly Soldiers, so we can get enough gold to decorate your palace! Millions of young men, it took twenty years to finally dig out those gold veins, and all the gold is here!"

Lin Qi's mouth opened wide in shock, and he and Alda glanced at each other, who had already grasped the hilt of the Bloodthirsty Demon's Kiss tightly. Bursting out of the half-blood demon's eyes was a ferocious light of greed, and Alda was about to demonize. He's ready to kill all the dwarves present and loot all the gold here!

However, the barrel's words quickly dispelled the madness in Alda's heart: "Gold? I don't like this thing! I can't eat it, I can't drink it, the barrel likes good wine, lots of good wine, endless wine! The barrel likes the dwarven girl, the more the better the dwarf girl!

Lin Qi took a deep breath. Millions of dwarves, it took twenty years to dig out the gold veins, God knows how much gold there is here! But since the barrels have said so, this gold is naturally Lin Qi's! So much gold, the real mountain of gold, more gold than Lin Qi got from the Yunlong clan. More gold than the gold that Linzi got from the Fifth Abyss!

Oh my God, every cell in Lin Qi's body is filled with a heat wave called 'happiness'. So happy, so satisfied, Lin Qi's dream in life was to be able to live in a palace made of gold, and now, his dream has come true!

"The wine barrel is a simple dwarf king!" Lin Qi squinted, his eyes flashed with a golden glow like ghost fire, and he said with great solemnity: "You decorate the palace with such vulgar metal as gold, this is an insult to the virtue of the wine barrel! Let me take this gold and give it to our God!"

The wine barrel urn said angrily: "That's what I mean!"

The dwarven elders immediately accepted Lin Qi's order in its entirety, without the slightest hesitation or suspicion - why did the wine barrel possess virtue, so he did not need to decorate the palace with gold, and Lin Qi wanted to dedicate the gold to the gods?

Of course, the dwarves are simple and honest, they don't have so many twists and turns, they didn't expect to go this piece. They were now planning to quickly organize people to knock down all the gold bricks and present them to Lin Qi, so that Lin Qi could sacrifice them to their gods, and then quickly smelt enough black iron to decorate the palace with black iron.

Well, the dwarves started with blacksmithing, which is also in line with the aesthetics and traditions of the dwarves!

As a result, many dwarven elders were moved to tears, how simple, how pure, and what a dwarven king who did not forget his roots!

Walking through this kilometer-long, gold-paved corridor, in front of which is a huge vaulted hall. The rectangular hall is one mile wide and four miles deep, and above it is a curved vault with a mile at the top. This huge hall was also paved with gold, and as far as the eye could see, every inch of this huge hall was made of gold—including the one hundred and eight pillars that held up the dome, all of which were pure gold!

This is supposed to be the meeting hall of the palace, and there is such a thing in the dwarves' palaces, which is the place where the dwarven king deals with government affairs. Therefore, at the end of this hall, there is a golden platform with a height of more than ten meters, on which stands an exaggerated throne with gold as the main material and inlaid with at least 100,000 gems, like a golden mountain!

Not only are there countless gems inlaid on the throne, but even in this hall, countless simple and heavy decorative patterns are inlaid with large and small gems everywhere! The corners of Lin Qi's eyes have been beating violently, hell, hell, hell, where did these dwarves get these gems?

A dwarven elder bowed respectfully to Lin Qi and said, "Great Divine Envoy, these gems have been carved out of the ground by us over the years. Digging pits is the life of our dwarves, and we find many extinguished craters underground, full of gems. ”

Lin Qi nodded in sudden realization, and then he looked at these dwarves curiously: "Since you can dig a hole in the ground, why don't you just dig a tunnel and escape here?"

The dwarven elders looked at Lin Qi with idiot-like eyes, and they spread their hands helplessly: "Venerable Divine Envoy, or you don't know where the Valley of Heavenly Soldiers is? This huge mountain range, on an isolated island, surrounded by stormy oceans, even if we escape from the Valley of Heavenly Soldiers, it is impossible for us to leave this huge island." There are those dead eunuchs watching, we ...... There is no escape!"

The only way out of the isolated island is the teleportation circle when Lin Qi and them came, but with the army of the town guard led by An Xi guarding it, the dwarves can't run out at all. Lin Qi nodded thoughtfully, perhaps, at some point in the future, he would lead these dwarves on a victorious escape?

More than 30 million dwarves, as long as Lin Qi finds a place where they can be placed......

But then again, these dwarves are in the Valley of Heavenly Soldiers, and Lin Qi can also use them to forge the weapons he needs, so why take them away? It is not an easy task to settle tens of millions of people. Moreover, there are more than 30 million dwarves who are proficient in forging, which is worthy of the spiping of any big force, it is better to leave them in the Heavenly Soldier Valley, at least there are free bodyguards of the Blood Qin Empire here, right?

Abandoning this thought, Lin Qi followed the dwarves into the depths of the palace.

Gold everywhere, gems everywhere, precious magical metals everywhere. It must be said that these dwarves have been operating here for more than a thousand years, and they are still very rewarding, for example, in the dozens of secret warehouses in the deepest part of this palace, there are many good things hidden, such as some strange things that the dwarves have dug out of the ground, are hidden here.

The dwarven elders opened warehouses without ostentation, showing their collections over the years to their own king, to the oracle of Lin Qi.

It wasn't until the last warehouse, when the dwarven elders opened the heavy metal gate, that a huge object with a diameter of more than 100 meters and shaped like a heart appeared in front of everyone. This warehouse is a natural cavern, and a large number of tubes like blood flow from the mountain to communicate with this huge heart. The oddly shaped heart was so hard that it looked like a mixture of stone and crystal, and it was slightly transparent and occasionally shook and roared like a heartbeat.

The huge and pure earth element filled this cave, and as soon as Lin Qi walked into this cave, the osmanthus tree immediately reacted.

"Extremely high-grade energy, good for me. Of course, the benefits are even greater for you!"

"Absorb this energy, maybe you can complete the Xuanhu Jin? Fundamental Wheel Seal ahead of schedule!"

The dwarven elders triumphantly pointed at the huge heart.

"Venerable King, Venerable Oracle, this is our greatest treasure, our greatest wealth, the heart of this great mountain range, the heart of the mountain!"

"Gathering the energy of this huge mountain range, and communicating with the energy core of countless nearby leylines!The heart of the mountain that can give birth to gods is said to be the heart of the mountain!" (Your support is my greatest motivation.) )
