Dwarves are good at forging, metallurgy, architecture, and are excellent and loyal soldiers. Because of this, the halflings and dwarfs who sought refuge mixed with them, and provided exquisite mechanical technology, creating a rather non magical mechanism in the dwarf kingdom.
When the moat was filled up again, the huge waterwheel made a creaking sound and turned. The clear water flowed through the channels that had dried up for thousands of years, and the broken fountain spewed out a thin mist again, making the city that had been reduced to ruins livable again, and even the pointer that had stopped in the bell tower began to turn.
The whole city seems to be awakened in an instant.
The dwarf's pure mechanical civilization has also developed to a high degree. In addition to a little deviation, it can almost catch up with the level before the first industrial revolution in reality.
And this part is what the dwarves need now. Compared with the tap water supply system in makassa City, the latter is nothing to mention.
Although gel Shiquan claimed that this was the will of Moradin, an Yizhi felt more like a coincidence, at most it was the will of the system. Moradin is indeed a very powerful one among the gods, but he is unlikely to directly affect the world, especially the dark region.
Ann didn't retort. It's easy to conflict when you tell a devout believer about this.
It can be said that the activation of the organs of the whole city is a blessing and disaster dependent news.
The good thing is that the secret door closed due to the failure of mechanism can be reopened, which will enable players to get more things, especially the players on the dwarf side. After all, this is a dwarf city. Even after nearly ten thousand years, the habits of the dwarves still remain in their blood, that is to say, they are relatively familiar with the settings in the relics, That's why it's better for players with dwarves to take risks.
The bad news is also fatal, that is, the danger is higher, and traps are activated together with those secret doors.
However, an Yi pointed out that they have apple tea. As long as it is not a special trap, it should not pose a great threat to them... Right?
Although there were many ruins and buildings to explore, the four did not intend to change their plans and still walked towards the largest building in the city.
The nearby buildings are also close to the entrance. It is likely that they have been swept away by the players who came in before. Moreover, the size of that place is not very important, and there may not be a secret passage, so it is obviously more important than their largest buildings.
Of course, they know this, and other players must also know it. They may encounter players belonging to the dark elf side there
An Yizhi: who will fight me? Who else?
After all, it's the monster in the top 100 of the combat effectiveness ranking. Compared with ordinary players, it basically exists that one ride is a thousand. In addition, the brave people in the top 100 are invincible. An Yizhi is eager for those players to come to him for trouble, so no one will rob him of booty.
There is a saying called "looking at the mountain and running dead horse". It says that the scenery in the distance looks very close, but in fact it is very far away.
This sentence can also be applied to the ruins of dwarves. After walking for half an hour, they felt that the distance had not been shortened at all, which once again highlighted the great significance of the dwarf kingdom.
——How much do these dwarfs like big things
Because the king warned not to use any teleportation magic, the magic of opening the teleportation gate to summon creatures is also in the "teleportation". Neither the phantom foal nor the brave and invincible Flying Horse can be used, otherwise the journey will be easier.
There are some fragmented undead creatures on the road. There are some relatively new races, including dwarves and dark elves. They must be the unlucky ones who died here not long ago.
However, the level is not high, and the highest is only a ghost who has died for many years. It is only level 30 and was split by the brave invincible two swords.
Finally, about three hours later, the people arrived at their destination.
The building has a huge stone door matching its size. It is too heavy. Even the door shaft forged by the dwarves can not be preserved completely in ten thousand years, so it is now tiled on the ground. If you don't take a closer look, an Yizhi thought it was a large floor. But it saves a few people the trouble of opening the door. Such a big guy may not be able to open it with burst magic.
Through the door opening, the first thing to enter is a metal statue.
This thing is no stranger. He can see it in all dwarf cities. It is the sculpture of their main god Moradin.
What is more surprising is that even after nearly 10000 years, the statue itself does not decay and deform at all. Wipe off the thick dust by hand, and the metal part below still glitters like a new product.
It's not magic, but the unique smelting technology of dwarves in ancient times. The forged alloy will not wear out in time.
"Moladin is on the, this is the temple!"
Ger Shiquan wiped away the dust under the base of the statue, revealing a line of words also made of metal, which read 'soul forging, Moradin'
It is said that Moradin forged the first dwarves with metals and gemstones and gave them life. Moreover, the dwarves believe that all dwarves' souls come from Moradin's melting pot, so he is called the soul forge.
"Priests usually put the most critical smelting technology in the vault of the temple and carry the most important knowledge with indelible metal!"
Gel said excitedly. He was dancing.
Soon, apple tea, observing the dust on the floor, poured him a bucket of cold water:
"We are not the first batch of visitors here. There are some messy footprints around. At least more than ten people have arrived here."
It's frustrating, because if it's not the first one, the best part may be taken away by others, especially the dark elves.
"Maybe they don't know. Yes, that's it."
Gel convinced himself, as if he were persuading other humanitarians:
"The location of the vault is very hidden, and there are a lot of mechanism traps. Those black bastards can't find it."
This is a little consolation. The brave invincible asked:
"Do you know where it is?"
"Of course, I mean, of course I know. I'm a dwarf!"
Although he has never been to such a deep place of ruins, the dwarf buildings have a common style to rely on. GER, who was originally a dwarf, is no stranger to the temple in ikasha city. Based on this, we can infer the approximate location of the vault.
Compared with the surprised three teammates, an Yizhi said it was all expected.
From the beginning, he didn't have such a naive idea that he was the first adventurer to arrive. You know, several days have passed since the time when the dwarves and dark elves were the first players and NPC adventurers to enter. In addition, the temple is so conspicuous that he knows to go this way as long as he is not blind.
But he still chose his goal here for two reasons.
First, the space here is large and important. Even if others have explored it first, they can't take it all away, and some harvest will be left.
The second point is that the moat is just full, which makes the whole city rejuvenated. As the largest building in the city, there must be some secret doors. The players who came in earlier may not be able to open them, but not necessarily now.
"Angie, what are you looking at?"
Apple tea said strangely when she saw Ann staring at the wall beside the statue.
"I'm looking at the murals."
With a wave of his staff, the strong wind brought by wind making technology blew away the cobwebs and dust pasted on the wall, and stone murals filled with vision appeared in front of everyone.
"That's our dwarf fairy tale. If you're interested, just go back to the priest and ask for one. We have a full set of rubbings. Now let's focus on treasure hunting."
Dwarves are right. Most of the paintings on the murals are fairy tales of dwarves. For ordinary players, this thing is a setting to improve their sense of substitution, which means that this guy who likes to study the game background will be interested in it.
An Yizhi didn't look at the mural for too long. When he heard the dwarf say so, he gave up his intention to continue observation and kept up with his teammates.
[Hella, how many are there in the historical database about the dwarf Kingdom and ancient elves?]
Through spiritual connection, an Yizhi asked quietly.
[not much, not at all]
NIKU's database is not omnipotent. Haila naturally can't know what he doesn't know.
[have they ever had in-depth communication?]
HeLa thought about it and said.
[from the time line analysis, there must have been some communication between the two sides in that era, but if it's not in-depth, I don't know. It's possible that dwarves were kept as pets by ancient elves like humans]
Not sure
An Yizhi recalled the murals he had just seen. The so-called uncertainty has become "affirmation".
If the mural is not painted randomly, the ancient elves must have a connection with the dwarf Kingdom, because an Yizhi saw a big tree like a plane anatomy on the mural.
That's the belief of ancient elves, the world tree.
For ancient elves, the world tree is their only 'God' and their only belief. Its importance is self-evident. Moreover, murals related to religion will never be painted casually. Each stroke can only be cut after consideration, so the emergence of the world tree is by no means accidental.
So, now the ruins of ancient elves and the ruins of the dwarf Kingdom appear in the same place, by chance, or
inevitable?
This is much more interesting than a simple treasure hunt.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Gel didn't brag. He took an Yizhi and the three players almost didn't make a detour. At a glance, he clearly knew where he was going.
Although the temple is several times or even more than a dozen times larger than that in ikasha City, the overall structure is basically the same. Ger Shiquan has been to the temple custody room in ikasha city and can also apply here.
Just some clues on the road made him very confident of what he could find in the vault.
You can see some feather arrows, metal nails, scattered on both sides of the channel, trap pits, movable walls and a series of common traps are in the excited state, which shows that a group of people have been to the custody room long before them, and they are by no means dwarves, because the players on the dwarf side have never been so far from the temple and have been ambushed and killed by the players on the dark elf side.
Finally, along the long corridor, they found a room with the stone door half closed
