Chapter 299: The Cause of the Conflict

In a certain dwarf mountain city, Yao Xing climbed the stairs and walked into an ancient spire.

Yao Xing only felt that his whole body was so cold, cold to the bone marrow, such a cold, as if not only the body, but also the heart was cold, and he was about to freeze.

As a player, with systematic corrections, he naturally won't feel cold, but just thinking of meeting someone for a while, his heart can't help but be upset, like falling into an ice cave.

Slowly, he chose to keep walking. Walking and walking, I don't know how long it took, a stone door finally appeared in front of me, the construction of the door seems to be very ancient, and in the middle of the door, a lifelike dwarf is carved.

This dwarf is like a Buddha who has been guarding the stone gate for a long time, he grasps the hammer in his right hand, the shield in his left hand, and his muscles are full of knots, as if he is full of liliang, and the dwarf's rough head is located in the middle of the stone gate, and he faces him with angry eyes.

Yao Xing was slightly startled, this dwarf statue was the king of the dwarf clan.

Dwarven King Odin.

When he came back to his senses, he slowly groped his way to the stone door, and found that there was a gap that allowed a person to pass through, and it turned out that the huge stone door had already been opened.

That guy already knew I was coming?, Yao Xing laughed to himself.

The next moment, he was plunged into darkness.

The boundless darkness seems to be eternal, and even the five fingers cannot be seen when you reach out. Fortunately, it was a wide passage, and Yao Xing leaned against the wall, slowly advancing. There was darkness ahead, and a lonely figure flickered gently in the gloomy peers.

In front, an exit finally appeared, and suddenly, Yao Xing couldn't help but shake his body, where he was standing was a high platform. In front of him, a large clearing appeared. How big it is, even he can't imagine.

However, what surprised him the most was that there were thousands of stone statues lying crookedly in the huge open space. Those stone statues have dwarven warriors, monster mounts, and chariots, and they look like thousands of troops and horses, which is not spectacular.

"What the hell is this place?" Yao Xing calmed his nervousness and looked around the below. But he didn't find anyone, and muttered: Let me come here to look for him, but I didn't see anyone.

After thinking about it, Yao Xing decided to go down and have a look, so he followed the stone steps that connected the high platform. He slowly walked down into the dense stone statues on his face.

These stone statues are exactly the same size as real people, and Yao Xing walked among them. It's like being in the middle of a thousand troops. That kind of momentum amazed him.

Yao Xing, who already roughly knew the background of the story of the dragon online, thought that the dwarf clan was also a brave and ruthless clan in the era of the gods, although the turtle is now entrenched in the southern high mountains, but it can't change the blood nature in their bones.

Walk through the stone statues, above the center. There was a huge stove towering, and a roaring fire burned in it, reflecting Yao Xing's face flushed for a while.

"Is this here?" Yao Xing looked at the huge furnace in a daze, and his heart moved.

He was determined. Then he walked silently, and there was no cover around it, except for the huge furnace in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, Yao Xing was at the bottom of the furnace.

As soon as he approached the vicinity of the furnace, the heat in the air suddenly increased several times, and although Yao Xing couldn't feel the change in temperature, not mentioning the boiling flames in the furnace made him have the illusion of a dry mouth.

What surprised Yao Xing even more was that in the center of the furnace, the red light was shining, and the hot air was churning like a mist, and in the haze, there was a huge weapon inserted in it.

It looks a bit like an axe and a bit like a hammer.

"What's the weapon inside?"

Yao Xing frowned, glanced around, but saw that there was no shelter around at all, and after a slight groan, he slowly walked around the back of the stove.

The sound of his footsteps walking in such an open place was obviously louder, Yao Xing walked cautiously, not afraid of alarming the others, but this atmosphere made him unconsciously slow down carefully.

Suddenly, I heard an old voice, and said slowly: "Boy Yao Xing, the old man has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Yao Xing knew who the person was coming, no, it should be the other party waiting for him. Thinking of this, Yao Xing exhaled secretly, and then said loudly, "Great Elder, please come out." ”

However, for now, except for the dead stone statues of the dwarves, the place is still empty.

As he pondered whether to move on, he suddenly noticed the sound of wind in his ears, and when he looked back, he saw an old dwarf about his height standing.

The man was a stout man, and although he was wearing a robe painted with runes, it still couldn't hide his bulging muscles. What is impressive is that his beard is all white, and his shaggy beard is braided and neatly tied on his chest. It makes this rugged dwarf old man look a little wise.

Sibal - Grand Elder of the Dwarves.

The name on the other party's head indicated his identity, and Xi Bar in front of him was looking at Yao Xing with a gloomy face.

The corners of Yao Xing's mouth twitched slightly, thinking: Damn, this old man must be asking about the assassination of Elf.

"Yao Xing, at that time, you promised the old man that you would take Elf's life within three days, and promised to destroy all the dragon weapons, but today is the second day, and you didn't move, what is the explanation?" Sibal's voice was loud, and the words were almost uttered in a questioning tone.

Yao Xing, who has an arrogant personality, doesn't want anyone to scold him like this, but now that the task is on his side, he has to continue to pretend to be obedient and let the NPC old man in front of him go wild in front of him.

"Why don't you answer the old man?" asked Sibal again.

Knowing the agreement with the elf whispering from Wang Zelei, Yao Xing was a big headache at the time, but Yao Xing was also afraid of the other party's strength in his heart, if he broke the contract, he would definitely give the elf whisper a truth.

Thinking of the other party's guild leader, the little sister named Liu Xiaoyu, Yao Xing was so angry in his heart.

Naturally, this agreement could never be told to Xibal, so in the face of this question, Yao Xing could only swallow his anger and said: "Elf is still in Ute Mountain City for a day, we still have a chance for a day, and the Great Elder doesn't have to worry." ”

Yao Xing bent down slightly, and his tone was submissive.

"But the problem is, the first time you made your move, you already alarmed Anthony of the Blacksmiths' Guild. That old guy is not easy to get along with, if he has precautions, the longer you delay, the more effort you will have to prepare for them, I specially help you secretly contact the assassin union, just to let you solve the problem quickly. Sibal frowned.

"Not necessarily. Yao Xing had already thought of his words, and said unhurriedly: "After a long time, they will relax their vigilance instead, Great Elder, just think about it, even if we continue to kill the past." will only be guarded against by the other party everywhere, why not wait another day, and then kill them by surprise. ”

"Is that true?"

A gleam flashed in Xibar's eyes, and he stared at Yao Xing tightly.

Yao Xing's heart trembled, but he forcibly endured the other party's momentum. Straighten your back and look at him.

Long.

Xibal sighed: "Yao Xing, you kid is the only person the old man trusts. It was you who took the initiative to take on this mission. The old man hopes that you can do this well, otherwise in three days, at the presbyterian meeting, if Elf is still alive, Anthony's old fellow will definitely blame the old man for the assassination, do you understand?"

Yao Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Then he whispered, "Yes, Great Elder. ”

Sibal turned around and said, "Stand down." ”

Yao Xing stared at Xibal's back, and said slowly, "That little one will go first now." ”

Let's talk about it. Yao Xing turned around and walked away, and when he walked past the huge furnace, the afterglow in Yao Xing's eyes glanced at the weapons in the furnace.

Hammer of Antares?

After walking out of the door of the spire, Yao Xing looked back at the gloomy secret passage and muttered to himself: "I didn't expect to see the legendary racial weapons here, and it's worth spitting the old man Sibal on the face, and I don't know if I can get it." ”

Yao Xing secretly thought about something in his heart.

Suddenly, he pulled out the system menu, his gaze falling on the mysterious task.

System: Trigger the merit quest, the glory of the dwarves needs your protection, and the Grand Elder Sibal wants you to help him destroy the dragon weapon, the Guilty Judgment, and kill the dwarf Elf, the inventor of the Guilty Judgment. Since this is your own initiative, Sibal cannot provide any reward to the player, and the player can get 500 merit points if they complete the task. (Note: The merit value is used to open the door to the other shijie.) )

It was this damn merit task that Yao Xing swallowed his anger at Xibal like this, but thinking of the role of merit points, Yao Xing could only continue to be dumb.

Speaking of which, it was a coincidence that as soon as the Elven Whispering Guild arrived in Ferrolie Mountain City, Yao Xing triggered this task from Xibar.

It turned out that for years, Sibal had been hoping to destroy all the Dragon weapons and weaken the blacksmiths' guild. Although he is the Grand Elder, in the Council of Elders, all decisions are still decided by vote. Unfortunately, over the years, the Blacksmiths' Guild had been working against him, and the disagreement over the matter of resisting the dragon had grown, and his position as the Great Elder had naturally been shaken.

Benighted.

For the radical blacksmiths' union, Sibal gave the other party this assessment. He has been serving as the Great Elder of the Dwarves because he knows too well the historical place of the Dwarves in the continent of Edras.

The dwarves, like the orcs, have lived in the shadow of elves and humans for more than two hundred years. Humans and elves have always occupied the most Haode resources in the continent of Eldras, while dwarves and orcs are forced to live in the extreme north and south.

Don't look at the dwarf weishenme to dig mines and live in caves, in fact, it is because this kind of barren land has no conditions for building a prosperous city.

Sibal hated the humans and the elves, hated them for abandoning their dwarves in peacetime, and now that the dragon has invaded, he wants the dwarves to join the Light Alliance and be under their management?

Absurd!

This is how Sibal angrily denounced the radicals led by the Blacksmith Guild at that time, and he proposed many times in the Council of Elders that he could gather the strength of the whole clan to build an underground city, and after the invasion of the evil dragons, the dwarves would return to the earth and would definitely become the king of the continent of Adras.

Naturally, there are people who support this bill, and there are people who oppose it. But in the end, due to repeated disagreements, the bill was never passed by the dwarves.

Sibal was furious, especially when he heard the radical blacksmiths' guild claim that it had developed a super-dragon weapon, he was almost mad.

The so-called super dragon weapon, he had heard of it for a long time, it was a suicide bomber. If it's used to deal with the dragon, maybe even your own clan will accompany you.

Enraged, Sibal finally had it all and gathered his men to destroy the super-dragon weapon and kill the inventor Elf so that the blacksmiths would break their resolve to join the war.

However, the dwarves are old-fashioned and old-fashioned, so Sibal's idea was immediately blocked by his own men. Although there are conflicts with the blacksmiths' union, the dwarves always believe that they must not kill each other.

Just when Xibal was completely desperate, Yao Xing appeared in front of him and took the initiative to take on this task. After the incident, it happened that Elf came to Ute Mountain City with the elves whispering everyone. Sibal, who had long been widely wired, naturally immediately asked Yao Xing to do it.

As a result, things became so out of control, and Yao Xing never expected that a seemingly simple task would be shared with other players.

Recalling the cause of the whole conflict, Yao Xing felt that this matter was really a bit unlucky, if it had been earlier or later, the conflict with the elves' whispers could have been avoided.

"It seems that this fierce battle between our two guilds is inevitable. Yao Xing's eyes narrowed and he muttered to himself. Thinking of this, Yao Xing opened the private chat channel and connected with Wang Zelei to talk.

"Ze Lei, act according to Jihua tomorrow, are you clear?"

"President, I've already made arrangements, don't worry. ”

"Hmm. ”

"President, don't you really need to tell anyone else about the content of the mission? Suddenly, Wang Zelei's voice became a little playful.

Regarding the specific content of this mission, Wang Zelei actually knew, and said to Zhao Nan at the time that he didn't know, but it was just a prevarication, of course, the people who knew it were limited to him.

"I have a sense of proportion in this matter, you don't have to be careless. Yao Xing secretly scolded Wang Zelei for being troublesome, but he pondered for a while and replied like this.

"Hehe, that's good, but there is something I have to tell you, Liu Joy, said not to participate in this operation. Wang Zelei's voice sounded again.

At the mention of that hateful woman, Yao Xing's face was hot for a while, and Zuihou gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry about her." ”

......

Following.

Zhao Nan came out of the gate of the blacksmith union, he came to a high place in Ute Mountain City to sit, and opened the system map, carefully paying attention to the changes in the coordinates on it.

According to Ma Hao's mouth, this is the Zuihou deadline for the task triggered by the sapper, and as long as it is past today, Elf will be safe.

In order to ensure Elf's safety 100%, the Elven Whisperers Guild and Elf came to the Blacksmith Guild to seek refuge. In fact, there is no need to wait for Elf to come, Anthony has already been looking for Elf everywhere. Although he was a little angry that Elf had come to Ute Hill without permission and his whereabouts were revealed, it was the only thing Anthony could do to ensure that he was thorough.

Thus, a protective net centered on the blacksmiths' union was formed. (To be continued......)
