Chapter 210
Li Qing and the others looked at it, only to see a huge stone door appear in front of them, this huge stone door, the whole body is black, at a glance, they know that it is made of the most precious black crystal, which is even more huge than the black crystal gate in the dragon general's dragon's lair, it seems that it has consumed a lot of energy of the dwarves.

Elder Ham said in a deep voice: "This is the entrance of our dwarf race!" The thief king asked suspiciously: Why does this door have no handle, the whole door is extremely smooth, there is not even a gap, how can it be opened? Elder Ham heard the thief king's question, smiled and said: "This black crystal door is the masterpiece of our dwarf race, and no magic cannon of any power can break through it, only the dwarven spell of our dwarf race can open it! Otherwise, no one can open this door!" Yasin suddenly realized: No wonder, there is no one to handle the entrance of your dwarf race, indeed, no one can break through such a black crystal gate! Elder Ham smiled slightly, slowly walked in front of the huge black crystal door, put his hands on the huge black crystal door, and chanted an unknown incantation in his mouth, this incantation was chanted in their dwarven clan's own language, and everyone did not understand what Elder Ham was reading.
As Elder Ham chanted, a faint light appeared on the entire black crystal door, and golden lines slowly appeared on the black black black crystal door.
At first, there were only subtle traces like cobwebs that appeared on the dark crystal door, and these subtle golden rays of light were not obvious, but they were clear, but as Elder Ham chanted, these lines gradually expanded outward, and began to become very thick and radiant.
Li Qing and the others stared at the black giant gate, and the lines that appeared were also clearly visible, on the top of the black crystal door were some elven words, and then below was a huge ancient tree, and next to the ancient tree was a giant hammer, Li Qing took a look, and found that the huge ancient tree was the tree of life in the elven city, and there was a seven-star array around it.
When the whole pattern was revealed, the huge black crystal door slowly opened automatically, revealing the deep passage inside.
Elder Ham slowly stopped chanting and said to Li Qing and the others: The door is open, let's go in! Li Qing said: Elder Ham, is this black crystal gate controlled by the magic of the elves, and the ancient tree on this black crystal gate is the tree of life in the elven city! Elder Ham smiled and said: Yes, what Li Qing said is true, the spell of this black crystal gate is exactly what the friends of the elves did for us dwarves, and the magic array of the black crystal gate is also arranged for us by the friends of the elves. Li Qing said: No wonder! Elder Ham led Li Qing and the others towards the Black Crystal Gate, Li Qing and the others looked at it, and saw that the stairs inside were spiraling down, and the wide stairs of the Dao Road extended to the ground, but there was no darkness at all.
It turned out that the stone walls on both sides of the spiraling staircase were placed on the magic stones that emitted light, illuminating the entire passage as if it were daytime.
Li Qing and the others followed Elder Ham and walked straight down the spiraling staircase passage, which was also very long, and everyone reached the flat ground after passing through thousands of stairs.
At the end of this flat passage was an archway, and when you looked closely, it seemed that there were still a few dwarves guarding there, and Li Qing and the others, under the leadership of Elder Ham, walked towards that arch.
As soon as the dwarves saw someone walking towards here, they couldn't help but stand up, looked this way, and saw that the person taking the lead was Elder Ham, and hurriedly greeted them respectfully.
Elder Ham nodded to the dwarves, and then asked in a deep voice: What happened here, and how did the waterfall and river outside the passage disappear? The dwarf said respectfully: Recently, the flaming lava leading to the center of the earth has begun to rage again, and a powerful heat wave is erupting upward! The plants on the ground can't stand the heat and die, and the waterfall and river have also evaporated! After hearing the dwarf's words, Elder Ham understood the reason for the matter, and said to the dwarf: Take us to the patriarch, I have brought my friend back! The dwarf looked at the people behind Elder Ham, and said respectfully: Yes! Elder Ham! After speaking, he instructed a few dwarves next to him and said: You stay here, and I will lead Elder Ham to find our patriarch! The dwarves said respectfully: Yes, captain! After saying that, the dwarf led Elder Ham into the archway, which was again a diagonal passageway, but the road was not very far, and it took a while to exit the oblique passage.
After passing through this passage, a huge space appeared in front of everyone, extremely wide, even the space facing up was very huge, everyone stood in this empty palace, only to feel like a child, everything here is so huge.
Moreover, in this empty palace, huge stone pillars rise to the sky, and each huge stone pillar requires forty or fifty people to surround it, which shows the thickness of this stone pillar.
And there are many passages around this empty palace, which are simply accessible in all directions, and the thief king and others can't help but exclaim when they look at such a magnificent palace, and they can't think of how this great palace and those dwarves built it.
Li Qing was indifferent, although the palace here was very spectacular, but Li Qing had seen more majestic buildings in his original world, so he naturally would not be surprised by such a palace.
Li Qing and the others, led by the dwarves, walked along the passage in the huge palace towards one of the holes, and after passing through that passage, they came to a place.
In front of everyone was a huge city, a city underground, a city inhabited by dwarves, as far as the eye could see, many dwarves were busy between cities, and just entered the dwarven underground city, suddenly felt a heat wave rushing towards the face, making people feel unusually hot.
Everyone couldn't imagine that the dwarves had dug such a huge space in this underground, this city looked about the same size as Zhigong City, but the houses in the city were much smaller than the houses of the human race, of course, this was also related to the size of the dwarves.
Strangely, there was also light spilling down from the roof of the cave, illuminating the entire city as if it were daytime, and Angel and the others couldn't help but be amazed when they saw the true face of the underground city for the first time.
Angel opened her mouth and said in surprise: Wow! My magnificent underground city, I really don't know, how did you dwarves build such a great underground city! Hearing Angel's admiration, Elder Ham and all the dwarves couldn't help but show pride, and Elder Ham said proudly: Indeed, only our great dwarf clan can build such a great masterpiece. Hearing Elder Ham's boasting, Li Qing couldn't help but smile, unexpectedly, this dwarf's racial pride was still very strong.
Elder Ham said: "Distinguished guests, please, let me lead you to meet the patriarch of our dwarf clan, the king of dwarves! Li Qing smiled slightly and said: Then Elder Lauham will lead it! Elder Ham said to Li Qing respectfully: Please! After speaking, Elder Ham led Li Qing and the others towards the city, only to see that huge stone pillars were erected in the city, supporting the entire cave.
The dwarves' underground city was full of walking dwarves, all dressed in the same way, but because the air was very hot, most of the dwarves were shirtless, and when they saw Elder Ham, they all respectfully saluted him to show respect and respect for Elder Ham.
Elder Ham led the group through the city of the dwarves, towards the center of the city, where there was a building that stood taller than the others, the palace of the dwarves, the residence of the king of the dwarves.
However, this palace cannot be completely a palace, because it is very shabby than the palace of the human race, and this palace is also much smaller, at most it is only much larger than the houses of the other dwarves.
When I came to the palace of the dwarf clan, I saw that there were dwarf warriors patrolling outside the palace, and I knew at a glance that it was the elite warrior of the dwarf clan.
At this time, the king of the dwarves also heard the news, and walked out of the palace, standing far away on the steps of the palace, and when he saw Elder Ham, he hurriedly said loudly: "My great Elder Ham, you are finally back!" After speaking, he immediately greeted him, walked down the steps, and walked towards Elder Ham, although he smiled, but could not hide the worry in his eyes.
Elder Ham knelt down on one knee, bowed respectfully, and said, "Elder Ham has seen my king!" The king of the dwarves hurriedly helped Elder Ham up, and said with a smile: "Don't be polite, hurry up, hurry up!" Elder Ham said in a deep voice: "My king, Ham has finally lived up to his trust, and finally brought back the treasure of our dwarf clan, the hammer of the god of war." When the dwarven king heard this, his originally sad eyes suddenly flashed with joy, lit up, and said excitedly: "Really, then the underground city of our dwarf clan is finally saved!" At this time, Li Qing and the others were also looking at the dwarf king, and saw that the dwarf king was much stronger and taller than the other dwarves, and he also had a red beard, which grew on his face, his eyes flashed from time to time, and his palms looked much wider and more powerful than the other dwarves.
The king of the dwarves was dressed in yellow robes, with a golden crown on his head, and the whole person also exuded the breath of a king, and he walked with great momentum.
Elder Ham stood up and introduced to the King of the Dwarves: This is Li Qing, the leader of the Heavenly Fire Mercenary Regiment, this is Angel, the number one talented woman in the world, and this is the King of Thieves, known as the King of Thieves! After hearing Elder Ham's words, the King of Dwarves immediately looked at Li Qing and the others, and intuitively Li Qing in front of him exuded an aura like a deep sea, which could contain everything, and at the same time there was an air of nothingness and etherealism, as if he was not a person in the mortal world.
Elder Ham then said to Li Qing and the others: "This is the patriarch of our dwarf clan, the king of the dwarves, Bourne!" Li Qing smiled indifferently and said: The elder of the Bourne clan is polite! The king of the dwarves, Bourne laughed and said: It turns out that this is Li Qing, the leader of the legendary S-class mercenary group Tianhuo mercenary group, and he really lives up to his reputation! At this time, Elder Ham introduced to the Dwarf King Byrne: This time we can find the God of War Hammer and bring it back, all thanks to the help of Captain Li Qing, without their help, we may not be able to bring this God of War Hammer back, and Ham will not be able to complete the oath he made that day! After hearing Elder Ham's words, the Dwarf King Byrne's eyes lit up, and his tone became respectful, and he said to Li Qing and the others: You are really the benefactors of our dwarf clan, please come in, don't stand outside again! A group of people, led by the dwarven king Byrne, walked towards the dwarven palace, and along the stairs, a group of people walked to the dwarven palace.
And those dwarves, after being sentenced to Elder Ham, let them rest first, and wait until the future, and then crown them the title of dwarven warriors.
When the group came to the dwarven palace and came to the hall where the guests were received, Li Qing looked at the situation in the palace in front of him, and saw that everything was much smaller than the human things, and there was a big chair in the main seat, which seemed to be the throne of the king of the dwarves.
And Li Qing and the others couldn't sit down on those small chairs, and only sat cross-legged on the ground, and the dwarf king Byrne was also full of apologies.
The Dwarven King Byrne said apologetically: I'm really sorry, you can't sit down on the chairs here, I'm really sorry, I hope you don't mind! Li Qing said lightly: Patriarch Bourne, don't be so polite, we are all very casual! The Dwarf King Bourne said: I don't know, where is the treasure of our dwarf clan, the Hammer of the God of War, can you take it out, let me take a look! Li Qing smiled indifferently, and then, with a flip of his palm, he took out the black crystal box containing the hammer of the god of war in the Bodhi ring, and the void floated above Li Qing's palm.
The black crystal box on Li Qing's palm slowly floated in front of the dwarf king Byrne, floating quietly in the air, and the dwarf king Byrne looked at the black crystal box in front of him with excitement on his face, and he was at a loss.
The dwarven king Byrne slowly stretched out his hand to take the black crystal box, and then slowly opened the black crystal box in front of him, and suddenly ten thousand golden lights rose to the sky, and the powerful energy spread rapidly, and the entire underground city felt this powerful energy, and the dwarves looked up at the palace one after another.
The dwarven king Bourne looked excitedly at the hammer of the god of war that exuded bursts of golden light, and was speechless with excitement, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence and say: It is really the hammer of the god of war, the treasure of our dwarf clan, the hammer of the god of war, which has been in exile for a hundred years, has finally returned to our dwarf clan! After finishing speaking, he stared at the hammer of the god of war for a long time before slowly closing the box.
The dwarven king Bourne respectfully put the black crystal box by his side, and then gave Li Qing a respectful salute, and said gratefully: "Captain Li Qing, you are the great savior of our dwarf clan, as long as you say a word in the future, even if you raise the strength of our whole clan, we will help Li Qing you." Li Qing smiled and said: You are so polite! The Dwarven King Bourne hurriedly said: It is Li Qing You are too polite, you know how great the help you have been to us in helping the Dwarf Clan bring back this God of War Hammer! After a pause, the Dwarf King Byrne asked: I don't know, how did you find this God of War Hammer, and how did you bring this God of War Hammer back? Elder Ham, who was next to him, hurriedly told the Dwarven King Byrne everything that had happened, how everyone knew that the Hammer of the God of War was in the palace of the Apello, and how they defeated the Dark Mage and the Blazing War Demon of the Demon Realm in the mercenary contest and recaptured the Hammer of the God of War from their hands.
The thrilling process made things even more terrifying in Elder Ham's mouth, and even Byrne, the king of the dwarves, was sweating in his palms.
After listening to it, I admired and respected Li Qing and the others, you must know that for the sake of a promise, Li Qing and the others actually fought with those terrifying opponents, ignoring their own dangers, what a spirit.
The dwarven king Bourne stood up and respectfully applied the highest etiquette of the dwarf race to Li Qing to express his inner respect for Li Qing and the others.
You must know that the king of the dwarves imposes the highest etiquette on others, which has never happened, and this also recognizes the status of Li Qing and the others in the minds of the dwarves, and they can be on an equal footing with the king of the dwarves.
The dwarven king Byrne said respectfully: Li Qing, from now on, you will be the brother of our dwarf clan, and you will be the brother of our dwarf king Byrne! Li Qing saw that the dwarf king Byrne was so respectful to him, and said lightly: The Byrne patriarch doesn't have to be like this, helping friends is what we should do! Then, everyone began to eat the food prepared by the dwarves, and everyone became hungry all the way, and they all ate the food in front of them.
At this time, Angel beside Li Qing asked suspiciously: Patriarch Bourne, it is obviously spring now, why is it that the closer you get to your dwarven territory, the hotter it becomes, even hotter than the scorching heat! After hearing Angel's words, everyone couldn't help but look at the dwarf king Byrne, and also wanted to know what happened to this abnormal situation.
Byrne, the king of the dwarves, and Elder Ham glanced at each other, and then made a decision and said: Since you have asked, I will not hide it from you, in fact, this situation has been appearing for a long time, but it has become more and more serious recently, causing all the lives in the vicinity to disappear! Li Qing asked: What happened? Byrne, the king of the dwarves, told Li Qing and the others the reason for everything.
It turned out that everything originated from the underground lava beneath the underground city, where the dwarves continued to mine, gradually forming the current size of the city.
But all the things are because of the dwarves' crazy mining, and unexpectedly, the dwarves actually dug through the molten slurry buried deep in the ground.
The molten lava was formed by the fire in the depths of the earth, and it had been buried deep underground, and as it was dug up by the dwarves, the raging molten lava formed by the fire gushed out of the ground.
In order to stop the spurting of the all-destroying fiery molten lava, the dwarves used the artifact they had kept all along, the Hammer of the God of War, to suppress the spurting molten lava, which was finally suppressed and never raged again.
And the dwarves also found an advantage, that is, if you cast the weapon armor in the place of the molten mouth, you can be more refined, and the weapon armor cast there absorbs the earth fire energy in the ground, making the weapon armor more powerful.
At the same time, the dwarves' casting skills became more and more profound, and finally became the greatest casting master on the Xuanling Continent, and the weapons and armor they cast became the objects of competition on the continent.
And a hundred years ago, the hammer of the god of war that suppressed the hot and raging molten was actually stolen silently in the underground city, and the originally suppressed molten earth fire began to be active again, with signs of gushing out.
So, the dwarves of the dwarves immediately sent their people to find the stolen hammer of the god of war, and while looking for a remedy, they found the elves who were good at using natural magic.
The King of the Elves granted the Dwarves' request to help them suppress the raging Earth Fire Lava, and the Elves cast a combined natural seal to seal the mouth of the Earth Fire Lava.
However, the combined nature seal cast by the elves could not completely suppress the fire mouth of the earth fire molten pulp, and it could only last for twenty years at most, so every twenty years, the elves had to cast magic again to seal the earth fire molten mava.
However, the power of the magic seal is becoming more and more unable to suppress this force that destroys everything, the seal that was originally once every twenty years, now has to be sealed every five years, if you don't find this god of war's hammer again, I'm afraid that the earth fire lava will destroy the entire underground city, and there will be no living creatures within thousands of miles around.
Now, Li Qing and the others have retrieved this God of War Hammer for them, which is undoubtedly a relief in the snow.
After Li Qing and the others listened to the dwarven king Byrne tell everything, they suddenly realized why the entire river and waterfall had disappeared, and it turned out that it had been dried by the blazing heat of the earth fire molten slurry, and the entire river was not dripping.
It is no wonder that the closer you get to the dwarven territory, the more the animals and plants are left with wreckage, and there is no living creature at all, indeed, without water, all those animals and plants cannot survive without exception.
Li Qing said in a deep voice: I see, it's no wonder! The dwarf king Bourne also sighed and said: That's true, if it weren't for the Li Qing brothers to bring back the Hammer of the God of War, we dwarves would have to all migrate, leaving this underground palace, where our dwarves have lived for thousands of years! Then he laughed and said: Now, our dwarf clan finally doesn't have to migrate, your Tianhuo mercenary group is really our big savior, Li Qing smiled indifferently and said: Bourne patriarch is too polite! Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly they had a good feeling, and those bold dwarves mingled with the Tianhuo mercenaries, and soon became friends.
