Chapter 351 Soldering Iron Essence

Joan felt that his persuasion was not convincing. According to his understanding of Kandy, the other party would definitely refute and insist on going to the military camp together.

However, contrary to his expectations, Kanti nodded obediently, accepted his advice, and no longer mentioned the plan to participate in military operations.

Joan was still worried that she was insincere, and wanted to follow her secretly, but soon he realized that he had misunderstood Kandy.

"Don't worry, I won't follow him secretly. Mr. Thiel is so seriously ill. After you leave, someone must stay to take care of his old man."

Candy lowered his head and whispered in his ear.

Joan's heart trembled when he heard that, he was both moved and guilty, and almost shed tears.

Candy glanced at him, smiled and rubbed his braids against his cheek.

"Okay, don't think about those unhappy things. It's rare to have a vacation. Let's go hunting in the back mountain, shall we? Or go fishing by the river, anyway, have a good time!"

Joan wiped the corners of his eyes and said with some embarrassment: "Sorry, I want to go to the forge first to help Mr. Flint solve some troubles."

"What's the trouble?" Candy became interested.

"I heard that the forge was plagued by insects."

"Aha? What are the pests doing in the forge?" Conti looked blank. "There is only steel and coal there. I can't think of any pests that are interested in these things!"

"I have the same question."

Joan took out a reward notice from Aunt Barbara's shop from her pocket and showed it to her.

"The worm-shaped monster that messes around in the forge is said to be called 'Brand Iron Spirit'. Have you ever heard of this creature?"

Kandy bit her fingertips and thought for a long time, before finally shaking her head dejectedly.

"I've never heard of such a creature!"

"I've read the entire set of "Wares Monster Illustrated Handbook", and there is no record of this creature in the book, which makes me even more curious. I really want to see with my own eyes what kind of monster the so-called 'branding iron spirit' is. Earn a bounty."

"Sounds so interesting, I'm going too!" Kandy jumped happily.

Of course Joan would not refuse.

When passing by the house, I called Jamie and Gray by the way, and excitedly went to the dwarven forge located on the banks of the Derlin River.

After spending about half an hour on the road, Qiao An and his party came to the gate of the forge.

In the past, the roar of hydraulic forging hammers resounded from morning to night in the factory, and it was filled with the heat from the furnace, but now it seemed extremely deserted.

Qiao An approached and knocked on the door, and accidentally found a notice posted on the door, which stated that the forge was temporarily closed for rectification due to the disturbance of strange insects, and warned passers-by not to enter without authorization. at your own peril...

At this time, footsteps came from the opposite side, and then someone pulled the latch, and the big iron door opened a gap, revealing a round face with lush hair, looking out curiously.

When his eyes touched Joan's face, the man immediately widened his eyes in surprise and cheered loudly.

"Joan! My good brother, it's you."

"Tom, long time no see."

"Haha! Come in!"

The young dwarf blacksmith pulled Joan in, and suddenly realized that there was a beautiful girl behind Joan, and hurriedly adjusted his clothes, pretending to be a gentleman.

"Miss Conti, good afternoon, did you come back with Joan?"

"I arrived one day later than him, but we did make an appointment in the letter to meet in Delin Town during the summer vacation."

"Haha~ It can be seen that you have a very good relationship."

"Bah! I can't even see it, but you can see it?"

Conti gave Tom a hard look, her cheeks flushed slightly, but there was still a smile on her lips.

"Come in quickly, I'll inform my uncle, he must be very happy to know that you are here to visit."

Tom ran two steps and then stopped, turning his head to remind Joan and Conti solemnly:

"Don't get close to the warehouse over there. There are several vicious monsters hidden in the ore pile. Be careful not to be hurt by them!"

Conti still wanted to ask more questions, but Tom was already running, and rushed up to the second floor in a blink of an eye.

Conti looked towards the ore warehouse where Tom specially warned her not to approach, her eyes were full of curiosity, and she murmured, "Most of the soldering iron essence is hidden in the warehouse, Joan, come with me to have a look?"

"You'd better be quiet, Tom said don't get close."

"But people are very curious."

"It's useless to act like a baby. It's not too late to ask Mr. Flint about it when he comes over. It's too rude to make up your own mind."

"Okay, then wait for a while..." Candy agreed resentfully.

It didn't take long for old dwarf Flint's distinctive booming laughter to float from the second floor of the workshop.

Immediately afterwards, a short and sturdy figure appeared at the top of the stairs, and opened his arms to meet Joan from a distance.

Joan stepped forward to hug Flint Anvil, and said with deep emotion, "Mr. Flint, your spirit is still so good."

"You're not bad, kid. You've obviously grown taller, and your body is much stronger than before. You've become a little man!"

The old dwarf patted Joan on the shoulder heavily, his face full of relief.

"Uncle Flint, good afternoon."

Kandy took the initiative to come over to say hello, with a sweet smile and mouth.

"Oh! Isn't this little Candy, when did you come back?"

"This morning, I heard from Qiao An that you encountered a little trouble here, so I came here with him to have a look, maybe it can help."

"The little girl is still so warm-hearted, but this time the trouble is not small, otherwise I wouldn't be offering a reward for help."

Flint stroked his luxuriant beard, a haze appeared on his face.

"Recently, our town has not been peaceful! Seeing that the autumn harvest is approaching, the fields have been plagued by insects, and most of them are some particularly large and cruel strange insects. This is the first time such strange things have happened in Delin Town since its establishment! "

"Some people speculate that this is a secret conspiracy by a foreigner named Idar. Unfortunately, that person has already slipped away, and we have no way to continue to track it down. We can only gather militiamen to try to eliminate the pests in the field..."

"Mr. Flint, in fact, in the spring of this year, the plantations near Leiden Harbor suffered from the same pest infestation. So far, the truth of the pest outbreak has not been found out. I also heard that even this forge was affected by strange insects. Harassment?" Joan asked.

The old dwarf nodded depressedly: "I'm having a headache about this."

"What kind of strange insects are interested in the forge, do they like to eat ore?"

Conti once again cast a curious look at the iron ore warehouse.

"Little girl, you really guessed right!"

Flint smiled wryly.

"The monsters that sneaked into the forge have three characteristics compared with the pests in the farmland."

"First of all, they don't like to eat grains or livestock. They only like to devour iron ore. In addition, they are good at digging and digging holes. They emit scorching heat from their bodies. If you are not careful, you will be scalded by them!"

"These steaming monsters are lurking in the depths of the mountains of ore. It is too difficult to catch them all!"

The old dwarf shook his head with a sigh.
