Nia brought Wang Teng and the others around the dwarf tribe, but they didn't see what they wanted to see.
Wang Teng couldn't help but ask, "I heard that the dwarves are good at forging. Can you show us around?"
"The chief already guessed that you would ask this. He told me that if you want to see it, I'll take you there. Follow me," Nia said.
She brought everyone into the stone castle that was connected to the mountain peak. They went all the way inside, through a long corridor, and a flight of stone stairs that led down …
Not long after, the scene inside was reflected in Wang Teng and the others' eyes.
It was a hollow mountainside, and there were many stone rooms carved out. These stone rooms were connected by various strange mechanical structures, giving off a sense of science fiction.
Red light shone out from each stone room, and at the same time, the sound of metal clanking could be heard. It echoed in the hollow mountainside like a symphony.
Lin Zhan and the others looked at each other and were amazed.
"We've learned something new today!" Yan Jinming exclaimed.
"We dwarves make a living by forging, and we've been doing it for thousands of years," Nia said proudly.
"Every race has their own way of survival. To be able to persist for thousands of years is enough to develop a skill to a level that we can't imagine," Lin Zhan said.
Wang Teng's eyes were attracted by the countless attribute bubbles below, and he couldn't look away.
There were too many!
Attribute bubbles of various sizes floated around, and it was quite a spectacular sight!
Wang Teng couldn't help but smile.
He picked them up.
[Forging * 3]
[Forging * 5]
[Forging * 1]
…
A large number of [Forging] attributes merged into Wang Teng's body, and his mind instantly flooded with memories about forging.
Even his body was having some kind of reaction, as if it was implanted with pieces of physical memory. It not only made his theory complete, but also made his practical ability more proficient.
Forging:
60/500 (Small Mastery)
These were the original attributes, but now they kept increasing until they exceeded 500. Forging went from 'Small Mastery' to 'Large Mastery'!
Forging:
125/1000 (Advanced Mastery)
Most importantly, it was the Dwarves' smithing art.
The Earth Star's forging techniques were all learned from the Xingwu Continent, and the Dwarves' forging techniques were the best in the Xingwu Continent.
Wang Teng had learned the most essential part of the Other World's smithing techniques. Although it was only one of them, compared to the smithing techniques he learned from Earth Star, it was undoubtedly more exquisite, and many details were more perfect.
At this moment, the attribute bubbles below had completely disappeared. They had all been picked up by Wang Teng.
"Whew ~"
Wang Teng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He was exceptionally happy in his heart … He had made a huge profit this time!
No one knew what benefits Wang Teng had obtained. After that, Nia briefly explained the situation inside the mountain. It was obvious that she was holding back. She only let them see what was on the surface. Naturally, she would not let them see the deeper parts. Lin Zhan and the others were tactful enough to not ask too much.
…
At night.
On the hill where the dwarves lived, a bonfire rose and lit up the surroundings.
There was a bonfire party going on.
The open space was bustling with noise and laughter.
The rough singing was accompanied by drumbeats and all kinds of unknown ancient musical instruments, playing a very unique dwarven tribal music.
The Dwarven girls served various fruits and vegetables, barbecued meat and wine. Lin Zhan and the others were dazzled and salivated.
"Wow, it smells so good!"
Lin Zhan couldn't wait to grab a roasted pork leg and eat it in big bites.
His other hand was not idle either. He picked up a large wooden cup filled with wine and smelled it gently. He showed an intoxicated expression and couldn't wait to take a big gulp.
"Ha! Good wine!"
"Damn, captain, you're really fast." Yan Jinming was not willing to be left behind. He took big mouthfuls of meat and wine. His mouth was full of oil. It was simply too satisfying.
Liu Yan and Yan Jinyue were much more refined. Although they were not slow, they did not look like they had never eaten good food before.
Wang Teng smiled and shook his head. He released the little crow, tore a large piece of barbecued meat, and let it deal with it by itself. Then he poured a glass of wine and ate the barbecued meat while enjoying the wine. Looking at the starry night sky, he suddenly felt that life was really beautiful!
"How is it? I didn't lie to you, right? The wine of the dwarves is definitely good." Yan Jinming put his arm around Wang Teng's shoulder and said with a smile.
"It is indeed good wine." Wang Teng raised his glass and clinked it with him. The two drank it in one gulp.
"Everyone, are you satisfied with the wine and food of the dwarves?" Nia walked over. Behind her was the dwarf named Vac.
Wang Teng could also tell that this guy admired Nia, so he was unhappy when he saw him chatting with Nia at first. That was why he spoke so harshly.
However, after seeing Wang Teng's strength, this guy was much more honest. At least, he did not dare to talk back to him. Moreover, he could probably tell that Wang Teng did not have any thoughts about Nia at all.
Lin Zhan and Yan Jinming heard him and gave him a thumbs up. Unfortunately, their mouths were stuffed with food and they could not speak.
Seeing them like this, Nia and Vac could not help but laugh. There was nothing better than action to prove it.
"Eat more …"
Before Nia could finish her sentence, a loud drum sound suddenly rang and covered all the other sounds.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet!
"What's going on?" Wang Teng and the others' expressions changed slightly, and they stood up.
"Enemy attack!"
Nia's expression changed drastically. She turned around and rushed down the mountain. Vac followed closely behind.
In an instant, the scene was a mess.
"Quick, quick, hide in the stone castle!" Patriarch Ao Mu's voice rang out and spread around.
The bonfire was kicked away, and the food and wine were all over the ground. The dwarves did not care about this and rushed toward the stone castle.
"Let's go too."
Lin Zhan said and rushed toward Patriarch Ao Mu. Liu Yan, Wang Teng, and the others quickly followed.
"Patriarch Ao Mu, what the hell is going on?" Lin Zhan took advantage of the gap and asked.
"It's bandits!" Patriarch Ao Mu said solemnly.
"Bandits?" Lin Zhan and the others were shocked and asked suspiciously, "Why are there bandits here?"
"I don't know. There haven't been bandits in this area for many years." Patriarch Ao Mu said.
"We don't know how strong these bandits are," Lin Zhan said.
Patriarch Ao Mu looked worried. He hesitated and said, "If my tribesmen can't hold them back, can you help them …"
Lin Zhan exchanged glances with the others and said, "Don't worry. Since we've met them, we won't sit back and do nothing."
Right after he finished speaking, more than ten figures rushed out from the darkness.
"Kill, kill everyone and steal their belongings!"
Ruthless laughter could be heard. They killed everyone they saw.
Nia and the others were a few steps behind. When they saw their tribesmen being killed, their eyes instantly turned red. They roared and pounced toward the bandits.
Lin Zhan, Wang Teng, and the others couldn't bear to see them like this. They immediately joined the battle. After all, a defenseless dwarf might be killed every time they delayed.
They were like tigers in a flock of sheep. Seven to eight bandits were killed in an instant.
Wang Teng killed a 1-star soldier-level bandit with a punch. Suddenly, he felt a strong gust of wind coming from behind him.
He saw a fierce-looking brown-haired man standing not far away. The brown-haired man slashed his blade at him. The blade emitted a scorching aura as it reached him in an instant.
Steps of Gale!
Wang Teng executed his footwork and turned into a shadow. He moved sideways and dodged the attack.
Seeing that Wang Teng dodged his attack, the brown-haired man's expression changed slightly.
"3-star soldier-level martial warrior!"
Wang Teng scanned the man with his Spiritual Sight and saw his ability.
Then, he didn't stop. After dodging the man's attack, he stomped on the ground and created a shockwave. He pounced toward the brown-haired man.
"Idiot!" Seeing Wang Teng charging toward him empty-handed, the brown-haired man smiled coldly. He didn't dodge at all.
Wang Teng's figure suddenly disappeared in front of him. When he reappeared, he was already behind him. He was holding a golden brick in his hand. With a holy expression on his face, he threw the brick down.
Bang!
The brown-haired man felt a sharp pain at the back of his head. Then, he blacked out and fell forward uncontrollably. What a good move.
This was the only sentence he heard before he lost consciousness.
"You're the idiot!"
