Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

Red Lion City, a low and solid castle, is not as gorgeous and majestic as Stone City. It shows the design of the army everywhere, with towers equipped with ballistae, and flames loaded into catapults to kill all monsters trying to attack the city.

Wuming followed Jorah directly into the Red Lion City through the secret portal. Because the Falling Star Beast was too conspicuous and dangerous, Wuming was tied up outside the city.

Wuming hugged Falling Star Beast's neck and showed Falling Star Beast his light magic.

In a flash of light, the fallen star beast's past figure appeared one after another on the road.

Don't run away. Wuming reminded Falling Star Beast kindly, My light magic is not good at anything else, but I am very good at recreating the fleeting glimpses of the past - in other words, I am very good at finding people. So absolutely, absolutely, don't Run away. You also know that I am short on time and have heavy tasks. If I am delayed, my mood will not be very beautiful...

Falling Star Beast nodded repeatedly.

Wuming touched the eyes of Falling Star Beast with satisfaction:

Be good, our store is going to open an artificial plain, and we will give you all the gravel we will cut out.

Wuming stepped into the portal and walked into the Red Lion City.

As soon as you enter, you will see the city's fortifications, with horses and flamethrowers everywhere.

and corpses and weapons hanging all over the city walls.

It is indeed a general's city. Wuming said, It fits my imagination of a fortress very well.

That's right. Jorah raised his head proudly when he heard Wuming praising Latarn, Every obstacle and every mechanism here has a design, and it's not just a simple pile-up. For example, the obstacle here can be Block from this direction——

Jorah was about to briefly talk about the afterglow of the Red Lion City during the war, but found that Wuming had already diverted his attention.

Where's the weapons craftsman? Wuming hit the shield with his long sword, anxious.

Jorah had no choice but to take Wu Ming into a huge blacksmith shop.

From the outside, the blacksmith shop is at least ten meters high, which is a bit higher than the dome of Airei Church.

Walking into the blacksmith's shop, the setting inside is more luxurious than that of the Ailei Church. The stove is much larger. The bellows are pulled by several strong men together, and the stove burns fiercely.

The blacksmith who was served by several strong men was certainly stronger.

This is actually a mountain demon.

No wonder the blacksmith shop was built so high.

The mountain demon is holding an extremely huge mallet. The handle of the mallet is shaped like a bundle of hair. The head of the mallet has a vortex shape. Eight small vortexes surround a large vortex, which is a strange shape.

The heavy weapons of the Red Lion Knights were kneaded and shaped like dough in front of this big mallet.

When the rough shape is forged, the troll puts down the mallet, places the weapon on the hot whetstone that is burned red by the furnace fire, and gives the weapon the power of fire.

What a weird hammer. Wuming said.

The mountain monsters are the descendants of giants, and their forging skills belong to giants. The hammer is their sacrificial tool, and forging is also a sacrificial ritual for worshiping their gods. Jorah explained, Simply put, the mountain monsters are the best blacksmiths.

The mountain demon heard the conversation between Wuming and Jorah and laughed like thunder:

Boy, don't underestimate the power of forging.

I am also a blacksmith, and I understand the magic of forging. Wuming smiled, It's a magical power.

Not bad. The mountain demon nodded with satisfaction, You know, the giants' forging technology can even control the scales of the Dragon King. Do you know what this means?

Does it mean you can control time and space? Wuming said.

That's right, that's right, you know it very well. The mountain demon said, The scales of the Ancient Dragon King are distorted by time and space, and Forging can even control such scales. This is a power that can kill gods.

Jorah couldn't stand listening anymore:

I know you're very proud of your work, but it's too much. You have to say things like killing gods. There must be a limit to boasting.

The mountain demon sneered and blew out two balls of hot air from its sunken nostrils:

I'm not bragging. I've also fought giants and dragons.

That's a flying dragon, not an ancient dragon. Jorah said, Don't think I don't understand anything.

The mountain demon blew his beard and stared, his face turned red, but he didn't say anything to refute.

It was Wuming who rescued the mountain demon and asked:

Are you the weapons craftsman?

It's me. The mountain demon said, Is something wrong?

I heard that you have the means to fight the Scarlet Corruption. Wuming said.

Scarlet is just corrupt. Just burn it with fire. The mountain demon said.

It sounds so easy to say. But in actual operation, the amount of flame used is also very particular. Wuming said, Can you teach me the details and various techniques?

Okay. The mountain demon said.

Is it okay? Wuming turned to ask Jorah.

What do you ask me for? Jorah said.

I see that you were very excited before. Isn't this your secret recipe for confidential information? Wuming asked, For example, breaking the rules of passing on male rather than female, or swearing to be a disciple before accepting it.

What a mess. Jorah said: What I can't stand is that you use lies to talk to me. We always welcome others to learn the techniques of resisting corruption. If they can be used, it will reduce our burden.

That's good. Wuming was relieved.

The mountain demon took out two books from the pile of groceries and handed them to Wuming:

One is a prayer book, which records the most suitable temperature to kill corruption. The other is a recipe for making corruption moss medicine, which can treat corruption diseases.

Wuming took the book, looked through it, and said:

Not bad... I heard that the effect is limited?

Who said that? The mountain demon glared.

Wuming looked at the book and pointed at Jorah next to him with one finger.

You dare to look down on my formula? The mountain demon raised the mallet and said in a bad tone.

Jorah said: The general is indeed not doing well.

Is it my fault? The mountain demon muttered, his tone a little weaker.

So what's the effect? Wuming was curious.

The effect is very good. The mountain demon said, It's just that Latarn's poisoning is too deep and difficult to cure. Moreover, the output of the rotten moss medicine is too small. The general's body is huge and requires too many doses. It is difficult for us to supply it. .”

Can't even gather the army? Wuming was surprised.

The Red Lion is a real army, and Latarn is also one of the fragmented monarchs. This power is definitely not comparable to ordinary people.

Of course Airei Church cannot compare.

The medicine that Red Lion can't afford, I'm afraid Ailei Church will also have trouble supplying.

After the Shattering War, the army has been crippled, plus the Red Lion has to fight against corruption. Jorah answered.

And the materials are indeed rare. The mountain demon flexed his fingers, Crystal moss, night dew hepa grass, and holy blood wood buds, every material is rare.

It does sound quite rare. Wuming said.

His employees have been collecting outside for so long and have never heard of these things.

The mountain demon said: It's okay to say that crystallized moss can still be found in some underground caves. The night dew hepa grass has been collected in the underground Eternal City. The army also sent people to collect in the Eternal City before, but people never come back, so we can't Didn’t get the materials.”

The Eternal City... Wuming pondered.

Jorah also responded depressedly:

It's okay to say all this. At worst, the red lions formed an army and invaded the underground eternal city. The rarest one is the Holy Blood Tree Bud. I heard that it is only found in the Valkyrie. Even in the Holy Tree, the base camp of the Rot Knight, it is extremely rare. Something rare.”

Wuming understood: I heard that the Red Lion and the Rotten Knight are mortal enemies. No wonder there is no antidote.

Everyone is his own master. Jorah said, When you are fine, go find your friends. I still need to repair the equipment.

Jorah handed the curled sword to the troll.

Wuming has no intention of leaving:

The Red Lion City is so big, it's hard to find it. Is there a radio or something like that?

Yes, I am. The mountain demon spoke again, I have a loud voice, so I will help you.

Thanks. Wuming smiled.

Come with me, help me with others. The mountain demon said, You can understand forging, and I feel that we can get along well.

Would you like to work at my place? Wuming said.

sure--

You can do whatever you want. Jorah quickly interrupted and knocked on the anvil, You are our weapon craftsman, can you be more dedicated?

I also want to change my working environment... The mountain demon muttered, opened the huge iron door, and left the blacksmith shop.

The mountain demon showed its head again and looked back:

What's your friend's name?

Roger. Wuming said.

The mountain demon shouted in the city at the top of his lungs:

Mr. Roger is waiting for the festival in the square. Your friend is looking for you. If you hear it, please go to the blacksmith shop; Mr. Roger...

Sure enough, with a loud voice, the voice of the mountain demon was like rolling thunder, spreading throughout the Red Lion City, and soon Roger ran over with his face covered.

Seeing Roger covering his face, Wuming asked curiously:

What's wrong with your face? Is it infected and corrupted?

I am a person who doesn't want to trouble others. Roger said, And just now the city lord was doing pre-war mobilization and telling the life story of General Latarn - can you imagine how embarrassed I was?

Wuming said: You are quite shy.

Roger was helpless: Why are you here? What do you want from me?

I want to go to the Eternal City and ask you if there is any way. Wuming said.

The Eternal City? Roger looked at Wuming with some surprise.

Roger listened to Baozhi's words and believed that Wuming was related to the Spirit Fire and the Fallen Eagle Legion.

He also found out that the Fallen Eagle Legion had entered the eternal city of Nokron, and that Nokron was buried deep underground, and its fate was sealed together with the stars. Only by breaking Latarn's seal could it enter.

That’s why Roger came to the battle festival to contribute to Ratan’s funeral.

He has no interest in challenging the strongest demigod, and investigating the Eternal City is essentially for namelessness.

But now that Wuming has found him, his target is also the Eternal City, without any hesitation.

Roger murmured in his mind.

Doesn't he have anything to do with the Eternal City...

What are you thinking about? Wuming looked at Roger in a daze.

Roger came back to his senses and smiled:

Nothing—why do you want to go to the Eternal City?

I'm looking for mercury. I heard that there is mercury in the Eternal City. Wuming said, describing to Roger the difficulty of making a bird's-eye mirror.

That's it? Roger said.

I thought Wuming had some far-reaching purpose, but it turned out that it was just to build a bird's-eye view mirror.

It is related to the survival and long-term stability of my store. It is very important. Wu Mingzheng said.

If you want mercury, why don't you just go look for it in the Celia ruins nearby. Roger was a little tired and had already started to wonder if it was worth being called out in public for such a thing.

Is there any there?

Mercury is poisonous, and anything related to poison can be found in the Ionian swamps. Roger said, The magicians in Serlia Town are also old-school magicians who specialize in assassinating fellow magicians. They keep mercury. The possibility is quite high. The town of Ceria was close to the corruption outbreak point and was destroyed instantly. The magicians probably didn’t have time to use the materials they kept. They can always find well-preserved ones.”

Wuming opened the map and took a look:

Not bad, and quite close.

Seliya Town is not far south of the Seliya Crystal Tunnel, and not far from Red Lion City.

That's a big help. I still have something to do. I'll thank you later. Wuming thanked Roger and left the Red Lion City.

Wuming went out of the city to lead the Falling Star Beast, and then started the teleportation.

Go home first, then teleport from Dragon's Breath Ruins to the Crystal Tunnel, and then go to Selia Town.

Not only is it the fastest, but it can also inspect the situation in the store and the mine, which is perfect.

He had previously asked Fan Lei to replace the one-time teleportation bone fragments with medals that could be used countless times. Now Wuming can teleport however he wants without having to consider the cost at all.

Wuming activated the medal's magic circle and waited for the portal to open.

He just waited in Galid's fishy wind for a minute.

Huh? Wuming thought the medal was broken, so he carefully studied the patterns on the medal and tried it with the bone fragment he was carrying.

It also cannot be sent.

Nameless felt a little bad.

The possibility of something going wrong with the returned bone fragments and the medal at the same time is very slim, and the only thing that went wrong would be the teleportation device in Airei Church.

Wuming thought of the magic circle buried under the blessing.

If there is a problem with the center, it will be in trouble.

Not only is he unable to go back, countless people who have bought return bone fragments, and the faded ones who are in danger will also suffer big losses due to the failure of the bone fragments.

Wuming also thought of another terrifying possibility - the teleportation center was not malfunctioning, but was destroyed.

It's not impossible for the Suzu Hunter to come, kill everyone, and seek out blessings.

Wuming banged his helmet with a headache, thinking about what to do.

He rode on the back of the fallen star beast and directed it to go to the Selia Crystal Tunnel.

You know your hometown best, rush back as fast as possible. Wuming ordered the Falling Star Beast.

Wuming always has to go back, and without being able to teleport, he can only walk long distances all the way back.

Before that, he had to go to the mine first.

Firstly, it's generally a smooth journey and it won't take too long. Secondly, if the enemy is really attacking, then Patch will arrange the teleportation array in the Dragon's Breath Ruins as one of the evacuation points, and someone will inevitably escape into the tunnel.

Wuming can judge whether the center is broken or has been smashed by the condition of the tunnel.

When the Falling Star Beast heard Wuming's serious tone, he walked as fast as he could. He didn't take the main road and walked directly through the Ionian swamp.

Gravity gathers beneath its feet, allowing it to minimize contact with the putrid toxins in the swamp.

Wuming also condensed flames in his hands to help the Falling Star Beast clean up the scarlet stain on its body.

A man and an animal were galloping through the swamp.

Suddenly a man emerged from the swamp and stood in front of the Falling Star Beast. The blade in the person's hand flashed with cold light, and he rushed straight towards Wuming.

Damn it. Wuming suddenly became angry, In broad daylight, the world is bright, and he actually committed such a heinous act as robbing in public! There are so many bugs watching!

Wuming was so anxious that he didn't pay attention to the enemy at all and directly threw out a spell.

A ripple spread from Wuming's body.

The ripples sweep across the enemy in front and fall back on them, forming a circle.

This is a bit like the forbidden magic spell that was used on Momochi, but it's light golden.

The enemy froze on the spot, as if there was a huge weight on his body, and his movements were sluggish.

The Falling Star Beast was also affected. It disappeared from the air and stepped directly into the swamp, making several deep pits.

However, Falling Star's beast was so powerful that it did not stop completely like the enemy. Its hooves stuck in the mud and water, and it still ran forward, knocking over the enemy and stepping on its feet.

A click and groan sounded from the feet of Falling Star Beast.

Wuming also closed his spell at this time, and the Falling Star Beast floated into the air again, and one man and one beast flew away.
