The Amber Sword

Act 77 The King of the Underground (28)

"There is only one lift available in area A03, but Mr. Oldham, do you really want to go down?" the foreman said, looking back and forth between the old dwarf and Roman.

He led Odum all the way deep into the tunnels of the mine, followed by more than a dozen soldiers. With Kuran gone and never coming back, Okins was scared out of his wits. Oldham was his only hope now, so when the old dwarf appeared in front of him and asked to go down to the mining area to have a look, he was simply overjoyed. mad.

As for Roman?

The secretary, who seemed to have grasped the last straw, didn't even notice that there was such a person beside the old dwarf, not to mention that this dwarf wanted to save him from danger. As for whether the other party was willing to take his illegitimate daughter with him. Go down, that's his freedom, isn't it?

After hearing the foreman's question, the old dwarf snorted from his big nose: "Nonsense, otherwise what would I be doing here?" He turned back and glanced at the frightened soldiers behind him - obviously the terrifying rumors in the mine had frightened them. Courage - the old dwarf said: "If you don't want to follow, you can stay up there."

The soldiers looked obviously relieved: "But what should I do if the adults ask?" someone asked.

"What does that have to do with me?" the old dwarf said angrily. If it weren't for the trouble of taking these soldiers down, he wouldn't want to go deep into the mining area alone. Who knows if the rumors of those monsters are true; there are so many people They have all witnessed the monster, and maybe it is real. Although the old dwarf still has a few tricks up his sleeve, he is not necessarily that clever: "You guys should explain it yourself. You can't lie. I won't expose you - —”

The soldiers nodded one after another: "You are such a good man, Mr. Oldham." They said this one after another.

The group of people quickly came to the elevator. The businesswoman raised her head and looked left and right at the thing. If there weren't so many outsiders present, she might want to touch it out of curiosity - but when she was hesitant , the old dwarf had already dragged her up.

The foreman did not follow up this time: "Mr. Oldham," he said, "Then I won't send you off. Pay attention to your safety."

The old dwarf snorted: "Of course, you humans are so timid."

Everyone's expressions became strange, except for the foreman who was slightly better-mannered and said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Oldham, can you operate this machine?"

"nonsense."

The old dwarf unhappily pulled down a few levers on one side with his hands, and the elevator immediately started with a rumble. It slowly descended, and soon left the foreman and soldiers on the upper level.

As the elevator sinks, the surrounding scenery turns into a rapidly descending rock wall, and the air becomes hotter.

When there were no outsiders, Roman became obviously lively and active, and she tried to touch the surrounding rock formations with her hands. However, the old dwarf pulled her back. He stared at her and said loudly: "Do you want to die?"

"I'm sorry!" the businesswoman apologized as quickly as human beings have ever known.

It was at this time that the elevator landed on the rock formations below with a bang and stopped, causing both of them to stagger. The old dwarf raised the torch and looked around. The fourth floor of the mine was as narrow as ever.

He thought for a moment and put out the torch.

But he immediately discovered a problem - he didn't bring the lighting crystal. Of course, he can now take Roman back to the upper level to chase those people. They must have something similar on them, but Odum snorted, and he couldn't bear to look like this.

Besides, the dwarf could already see in the dark, so he decided to move on.

"It's pitch black." A girl's voice said in the darkness, her eyes shining brightly in the darkness.

"Shh!" Oldham sniffed. After entering the fourth floor of the mining area, the air became thinner and he did not dare to use open flames. "Just follow me," the dwarf said.

"Why not light it?" Roman asked.

"Because this is underground, and air is precious underground."

"Illuminating crystal?"

"Without that—"

"But it's so dark."

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

"Roman wants the light."

"Keep your voice down--" The old dwarf's words were suddenly stuck in his throat, because he suddenly felt a soft light shining from behind, illuminating the surrounding area.

He rubbed his eyes, almost thinking it was an illusion.

The old dwarf widened his little eyes and turned around, only to see Roman raising a hand curiously. Her palm was emitting a soft white light.

"This...how did this come about?" Odum asked stammering.

"I don't know either." Roman turned his palm over and looked at it. "It can glow by itself. It's quite interesting!"

"You don't know either?" The old dwarf felt that the other party must be making fun of himself.

"Yes," Roman nodded obediently: "I thought in my mind, it would be great if there was light - it lights up. It's really interesting, isn't it?"

"Is this the first time?"

"kindness."

The old dwarf touched Roman's forehead.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing," Odum shook his head: "I just heard that there is a type of people who are rejected by witches and wizards. Their bodies have magic blood flowing-" He paused: "Your family is also with you. It is the same?"

Roman thought for a moment: "Brando said that my aunt is a witch."

"Witch," the old dwarf stared wide-eyed: "Impossible! The witch and that... are incompatible - unless she is not your real aunt, are you adopted?"

The merchant girl said angrily: "Aunt is an aunt."

Odum raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, what does other people's housework have to do with a dwarf like him? He suddenly felt that since he met this little girl, he seemed to have more and more problems with him. He scratched his head and replied: "Okay, it doesn't matter if there is lighting, just follow me. Don't get lost here alone." Yeah, this is no joke—"

"Okay." Roman nodded obediently.

But this kind of obedience didn't last for a few seconds, and she immediately asked curiously: "What is that, old man?"

Odum was startled and turned around subconsciously——

Otales's words reminded Brando of what happened in Butchi's old house on the night the Black Rose War broke out. At that time, he was just an ordinary young man in this world. Faced with the siege of the undead from the darkness, he finally escaped with Roman.

But everything that happened that night was indeed not so natural. He touched his chest, as if he could still feel the severe pain of being stabbed in the chest by the undead that night - when he was stabbed in the chest by Freya and her militiamen. Most of the fatal wounds on his body when he was rescued from the red pine forest were healed. He originally thought this was an additional effect of his unyielding talent.

But now it seems that it was Ortales who really saved his life.

He looked at the other person, and Ortales nodded.

"Thank you," he replied.

"No need, little one," Otales smiled at him: "Sister is the soul of your holy seal. Saving you is equivalent to helping myself. I don't want to go back to sleep for such a long time."

Brando's heart skipped a beat after hearing this. Doesn't Ortales mean to help him whenever he is in danger? So when you think about it, the previous dangerous situations don't seem to be a problem at all now, it's just that it wasn't the most dangerous time at the time.

Otales is a knight who follows St. Osol, the Queen of the Wind. Although Brando has mostly been active in the human area in the game before and does not know much about the legendary monarch in the north, after all, the Elf King Dirut is related to A figure as famous as Gilt, the King of Fire. It is expected that the followers of the King of Fire at least have the strength to reach the peak of the realm of elements, and the twenty-four knights of the Wind Queen are not far behind.

An NPC with at least level 80 accompanying him for protection made Brando feel secretly happy just thinking about it. He remembered that there was a mission in Amber Sword to escort a wizard mentor from the Tower of Stars and Moon to investigate a magically twisted forest. In that mission, a low-level player cooperated with a high-level NPC and was led by the NPC. It felt like he could still remember it. It was the only time he enjoyed the pleasure of crushing copies of the same level.

With his own little calculation in mind, Brando couldn't help but glance at Otales secretly.

Unexpectedly, the other party took him seriously at this glance. The elf woman saw through his thoughts. She closed her eyes and said seriously: "But even so, the soul of the holy seal has been deprived of its power. Apart from the inheritance of swordsmanship and some secret techniques, my sister actually has no power. Don't expect too much, little one. Guy—"

"ha?"

Brando's little plan was exposed, and he was immediately embarrassed and blushing. But at the same time, he secretly cried out that it was a pity.

Otales continued: "In the final analysis, the soul of the holy seal only represents the power of inheritance. In fact, there are four rings in total in the human world. Your grandfather can get it because we owe your ancestors one It’s just a favor.”

"Senior?"

Ortales kept silent on the subject.

Brando, who was frustrated, was not embarrassed this time. He had hit a wall with NPCs in the game more than once or twice in the past, especially with such legendary existences. Necessary conditions, you can't get anything useful out of their mouths.

But Brando at least knew that it seemed that his grandfather had indeed hidden something from him and Brando's father. This was very similar to what he had guessed - not only did his grandfather come from a noble family, but his status seemed to be not simple.

But he didn't ask further.

Because at this time, a row of text appeared on his retina, prompting him to choose a reward. He wasted too much time communicating with Otales - the atmosphere in the arena had begun to change, and the host left the challenge The player doesn't have much time to prepare. If he doesn't make a decision quickly, the other party may start the next challenge.

He saw that at this moment, Medisa came to him again. It seemed that the silver elf girl thought that he was going to challenge him again. It was quiet all around. Kuran seemed to be thinking about something, while the teenagers looked expectant.

(PS. The villain must be a villain, not a reader. Please don’t get excited. If you write a book and encounter some people who complain about something and have nothing to do, you will be in a bad mood. The author is also a human being and a social animal.
