However, Lin laughed in response to this. For a race that was sufficiently advanced and knowledgeable in engineering, it would be a waste if they were only allowed to do the job of digging holes. Moreover, he was very interested in what would happen if the Silver Bearded Dwarves were introduced to Earth's machinery and metallurgy.
Of course, he was not an expert in those two areas. However, it was not a big problem to talk about them. If Jermaine was really willing to learn from him, he would just give him some pointers. At least to the other Silver Bearded Dwarves, Lin had no intention of telling them these things.
Perhaps in his lifetime, he would not be able to drive a Ferrari, Sark, or Gundam, but there was no problem with a four-wheel-drive truck. Driving a sports car required the road, and that required national level equipment. Driving a monster truck only required the heart to crush everything along the way.
However, this little guy's blind trust was not a good thing. Lin laughed, "Little brother, you don't even ask clearly before pestering me. Aren't you afraid of being betrayed by me?"
"Will I? Will I? Will you do that? " Jermaine did not say that he did not feel anything, but after being reminded, he asked anxiously, "Will you betray me, big brother?"
"Why not? I heard that the two-headed giant likes to eat Silver Bearded Dwarves. If he doesn't eat one every day, he will feel uncomfortable. Is that right? "Lin turned his head and asked Fen.
The Lich chimed in, "That's right. I heard that they like to eat them raw, tear them into strips. Then take out their organs and cook them into a big pot of soup that can last for a few days. "
"No!" Jermaine screamed, but he refused to admit it and said, "I believe that big brother will not betray me."
"There is a saying in my hometown: it is not that men will not betray, but the price is not enough; it is not that women will not cheat, but the temptation is not enough. So betrayal, as long as the price is enough, is not a difficult thing. "
"Are you really going to do this?" Jermaine showed a wronged and sad expression. He took a few steps back and said, "I trust you so much."
"A trustworthy person is a tool for others. If you really want to leave your hometown, I hope that you will be more careful and not trust others like you did today. Even if that person is me. "
"But you saved my life from the hands of those ghosts."
"That's only because it's the most beneficial thing for me to do at the moment. You owe me a favor for saving you. Plus, at that time, no one offered a higher price, so I was left with only one choice, wasn't it? Whether you are indebted to me or not, you will want to repay me; and if, in the face of opposition or conflict, you will be more considerate of me, and that will be my price. Of course, if you're willing to give me something substantial in return, I won't object. "
"In other words, you don't really want to sell us off, do you?" Jermaine asked cautiously.
"No one has offered that price yet, so I won't do it for the time being. I don't know about the future, "Lin said bluntly.
"Then what do I have to do so that you won't consider selling me?"
"Be careful. I've said it before, don't trust anyone. On the other hand, it's to show your value to me. When the price I have to pay for losing you is far greater than what others can pay, I naturally won't make that choice. "Lin spoke his mind very seriously.
"Does that mean …?"
"It means that I agree to let you follow me for the time being, because I have a use for your skills. But I don't know for the time being whether you'll be able to use what you already know. So I'll teach you some necessary knowledge, including of course what you want to know. If it does come in handy, then I wish you a pleasant cooperation. If it doesn't work, hehe. "
"Heh heh." With a bashful smile, Jermaine seemed to have forgotten most of the lesson that someone was going to teach him, and only heard the parts that he wanted to hear and weren't important. So he said happily: "I knew a big brother was a big brother. I believe that as long as we are honest, we can trust each other. "
What a stubborn fellow. Lin thought to himself. So he used the language of the Silver Bearded Dwarves and said to Jermaine: "Since you want to travel together." At the same time, he put his hand on Jermaine's and Riley's shoulders. "— there are some things that you should know. Otherwise, it wouldn't be honest, would it? "
At the same time, the other two female dwarves were led by Fen.
Jermaine and the others were surprised that a human Wizard could speak the Dwarven language fluently. Only then did they realize how deeply someone had concealed himself. But they didn't think that Lin actually confirmed that he could speak the language of the Silver Bearded Dwarves just before they appeared. But without waiting for them to ask, Lin and Fen used Blink, and the group of six appeared in the sky above the surface.
Fen used Blink again, and safely brought her and the other two dwarves back to the ground. Lin used Blink once with the two dwarves, which was already the limit of his basic authority. So he only used Featherfall on the two dwarves that he brought along, and then Blink back to the ground. His ears were full of Jermaine's and Riley's screams.
The Featherfall cast by an official Wizard could really make people fall to the ground as light as a feather. Of course, the process would take a long time, which meant that Jermaine and Riley had also screamed for a long time. If Lin used it on himself, he would conserve some of the speed. In short, he would let himself land without getting injured.
But even after landing on the ground, the two dwarves who were still in shock were still screaming and screaming, unable to control themselves.
Lin and Fen returned to the surface, which was outside the ghost village, in front of the cave that led underground. It was also the place where they had agreed to camp and wait with the two apprentices.
As soon as they saw Fen appear, the two girls who had been waiting for a long time immediately pounced on the former Demon King's great chest and rubbed against it. "Big sister, you're back."
After rubbing against it for a while, they stopped and noticed the other people besides Fen. "Ah, there are more dwarves."
Whether it was the two female dwarves that were safely brought back to the surface by Fen or the two that landed on the ground, they couldn't open their eyes because of the bright morning sun. Jermaine, who was used to the sunlight, immediately jumped in front of Lin and shouted, "Big brother, what was that spell just now? Teach me, teach me."
Lin Zai chuckled in his heart. The most frightening thing was when someone shamelessly stuck to him without a purpose, and became a burden. But as long as there was a need, there would be room for manipulation. That was why he didn't ask anything about Jermaine's delusional request to reach the top in one step. He directly requested to learn the Blink Spell. A certain someone revealed a devilish smile and wretchedly took out a specially made Magic Stone for Browser from his bag.
The front page of the Magic Stone Browser was not the image of the forum. Instead, it was the digitized files of the former members of the Tower of the Great Sage. The most evil of all, mathematics, was at the top of the list.
When Hallumi couldn't sleep, it was more effective than taking sleeping pills. Even the serious Kaya only learned less than one-third of the content in the book. Most of the knowledge in the book was forced out by a certain Lich who was never tired of learning.
Some of the more shallow knowledge could be followed by a system, but for the more profound knowledge, it was just a record of whatever came to mind. Other than Fen, no one else had ever finished the book. Even Lin didn't want to look back.
Although this book had been roughly organized, it was originally intended to be an advanced teaching material for Orange Eaton Academy. But he left the academy earlier than expected, so he didn't have time to release the ferocious dog known as' advanced mathematics' to bite the students until they were covered in wounds.
Now, there were dwarves who happily sent their delicate skin and tender flesh into the dog's mouth to be bitten. If Lin didn't release the dog to take a good bite, it would be a waste of the ten years he had been tortured.
One Magic Stone. As long as the Water Mirror Screen was big enough, it was enough for four people to watch at the same time. So, this novel little thing instantly attracted the attention of the four dwarves. Lin also clearly told them that his knowledge was all in there. After that, he busied himself with his own affairs.
As for being afraid of being dissuaded, there was no such thing. If they couldn't even pass the first stage of shocking education, how could they see the glory after that? Not to mention the difficulties after that. If they couldn't even pass the first stage, how could they talk about the difficulties after that? Instead of tricking them into coming in and pestering them, he hoped that they would stay and get through the difficulties after that. It was better to screen them from the beginning and screen out those who could accept this knowledge.
On the other hand, because the two teachers entered the Iron City of the Silver Bearded Dwarves in the Underground World, it took a long time. Therefore, the two apprentices who stayed outside also managed this temporary camp to a decent standard.
At least, after Hallumie's foot healed, she couldn't sit still. She didn't dare to go too far from the camp, so the two girls could only play by themselves, turning a simple camp into a pastoral war position.
It was a strange description, but Lin couldn't find a better way to describe it. There were green vines on the barricades and fences, and flower petals in the drainage ditch. The carriage was used as a temporary residence. Apart from the front and back entrance, there was a wall of thorny flowers around it.
The crossbow also used the magic puppet arm technology that Lin used in the academy. Together with the Arcane Eye on the carriage, it was set to automatic shooting mode to drive away wild beasts. The whole mechanism was hidden in the flowers. Ignorant bees would fly over to collect honey from time to time. From the outside, there was nothing unusual.
Now that they were preparing to leave, it wouldn't be easy to leave in a short time. Lin wasn't in a hurry to leave, so he calmly ordered the two apprentices to tidy up the camp. The four dwarves were still focused on the Water Mirror Screen.
