"Dagon, you're traveling far to Seona Milis, we've prepared something for you." Corona rubbed Dagon's cheeks with both hands, and looked at the protective effect of the beard ring on her beard with satisfaction. In the eyes of her mother, Dagon finally turned from a "slim" child to a beautiful young man.

"Tormond is lazy. He said that he would give you the hunting axe. At most, he would give you another whetstone - let's not talk about him." Corona shook a contemptuous look and said, "I have prepared a treasure for you, come, that's it!"

Dagon had long noticed that there was a metal bucket upside down on the table in the house, and something must be hidden under it, and the bucket was a bit like covering the ears. Take the bucket away, and there was a dark cast iron pot with a lid. It was less than 30 cm in diameter, with an upper edge slightly wider than the bottom edge, and the hanging ears on both sides were connected by a hook-hanging lift. In addition to the handle, its lid also had three short legs that extended upwards and could be used as a frying pan if reversed. The lid was sealed well, but a discharge hole could be blocked by a paddle on the side, which could also be used as a guide for pouring liquid if necessary.

"This is an ancient pot, and there are also those called dwarf pots outside." Corona said: "This pot has been in our house for a long time. I remembered that my grandmother Zeng used it at the earliest. Later, there were more people, and the pot was no longer used because it was too small. It was kept in the corner and accumulated dust. I found it and asked the craftsmen to remove rust and maintain it. I also equipped it with a cooking spoon. You can uncover the pot and take a look."

The cooking spoon has a round belly, and it is very easy to use to scoop soup. It is no problem to use it as half a bowl. The front end of the spoon is flat, so it can also serve as a shovel. A thick short rod can be twisted on the back of the spoon to increase its overall length and can be placed on the edge of the pot to prevent it from slipping. There is a lid that can be unscrewed at the other end of the short rod, and a small spoon is placed inside. This combination of the large and small spoons is a rice bowl and tableware, which is too detailed!

"Look at the bottom of the pot - there needs to be some repair, so I asked the craftsman to carve the words "steel casting." Corona said with a smile: "Then carve Dagon on the repair part along the side of the pot lid. It is difficult to see it with her naked eyes, so she touches it with her hands."

Dagon turned over the pot to check it, then touched it carefully with his fingers, and found his name. He became happier and more and more liked the cast iron pot.

"You can hunt yourself, so you can eat hot food with a pot. The excess food can be kept inside, and the lid will not shake around, and it will save packaging and be easy to carry. Mom hopes that you can take good care of yourself and then find a girl who can cook for you early. Actually..."

"Don't mention the girls of the Huogu family, I probably won't see them. I understand, I will pay attention, I will..." Dagon used his tried-and-eat old trick, hugged his mother tightly, and said, "Thank you, I like this pot very much."

"Yeah, just like it, why don't you let go?"

"Hehe." Dagon made a successful fool again, so he let go of his mother and picked up the pot and looked over and over again. Indeed, there were traces of rust removal and repair on the pot, and the surface was re-rust and anti-stick maintenance, and the mother also carefully re-raising the pot.

"In the past two days, please hurry up and find the lord and ask what you need to bring. Lord Antoine and Lord Ganlaoda will definitely give you the things you have prepared when you ask, so we know what we have done."

"Dad gave the weapon to kill the enemy, and mom gave it to the guy who was eating. I don't think there is anything else to need from the Neil's family anymore."

"They are also your parents, even in name." Corona glared.

"Okay mom, don't be angry, I'm just talking. I'll definitely go."

"You'd better go now, remember to be polite." Corona patted Dagon's back and said, "I'm waiting for you here, go and go back quickly."

Dagon was driven to meet the Lord Neil and his wife. He could not show affection, but there was no problem with courtesy, respect and obedience. For this young man who was about to represent the Neil family to the elves, Antoine and Ganlaoda were not optimistic about his future development from the bottom of his heart, but only prepared him with a light breastplate, a helmet and a pair of good boots with family emblems.

The Jiangu tribe has a saying: helmets protect life, breastplate protects soul, and good boots can take people out of danger. So these three pieces are not very precious or valuable, and are more just expressing blessings. Dagon took these three pieces back to his parents, and Tomund checked the helmets and breastplate, saying that they are just right, neither good nor bad. However, the brown soft leather boots that can protect their ankles were praised by him.

"If I read it correctly, this is made of the mud demon's skin, and I recognize this pattern. I have encountered this kind of demon in the endless maze underground of the City of Gai Demon, which is quite difficult to deal with." Tormond said: "It is huge, more than two meters tall, covered with wet mud, not afraid of flames and acid, and the effect of cutting weapons on it is also very poor. It can move freely in the land, mud, swamps and waters. Only the skin on the chest is exposed, which is a small weakness."

"Let me guess, you're the hero who pierced its chest and killed it?"

Tomond shook his head and looked at Corona and said, "You guessed it wrong. The mud demon was wearing breastplate and blocked his chest, just like the Jiangu people were wearing full-body protective armor. I pierced its eyes with a spear, then cut open its neck before killing it. Unfortunately, there were many enemies at that time, and I didn't have the chance to collect the spoils. The skin on the mud demon's chest was made of waterproof clothes, and I was not afraid of falling into the mud if I made it into shoes."

Dagon's eyes lit up and he asked, "So amazing? Then when I encounter a mud pit, I can walk in directly?"

"A fool, it's definitely not possible. Don't believe that any item has the ability to avoid danger. Mud-demon shoes can only reduce the possibility of falling into mud, or float up intact after you drowned in a swamp, waiting for the next user. Only people can save people, sometimes you are the only one."

"Don't be so scary." Corona shook her head: "The Elves of Secret Namilis will surely ensure the safety of the Elite Academy, and Dagon will not be in danger there."

"I'm just talking about the truth, not cursing." Tormond shook his head: "You two should go to the market and don't bother me here. By the way, bring the two elemental stones you found and exchange some money for yourself to add some clothes."

After defeating the Big Trumpet Lizard, Dagon relied on the guidance of the star helmet to find two stones covered with a large number of nerves from the lizard's skull, took them back to show them to Tormond, and identified them as elemental stones. Some creatures that can use elemental power and exert magic effects may produce such stones, which have the function of storing and controlling elemental energy.

The elements in nature are unevenly distributed, and will be enriched on some specific terrain and landforms, and sometimes deposit, turning into elemental crystals, elemental carbon deposits, elemental thunderclouds. If it is in a living organism, it will be elemental stones, elemental osteomas, elemental essence and blood.

Compared with the two elemental sediments, the value of elemental stones in organisms is much lower, mainly because of the mixture. Natural sedimentation is generally related to terrain, and the terrain and elements correspond, so it will be more pure. Very few spells that creatures want to release spells are single-element spells, and there are often multiple elements inside the stones, which makes it inefficient in use.

After all, these elemental deposits are either used to assist in cultivation or to replenish energy for runes, Iron stones, etc., and of course they are pure and single elements are better used. Based on his own experience, Tormond felt that it would be almost enough to sell for forty or fifty gold coins for each elemental stone, and he could change to some ordinary clothes and daily necessities.

Apart from elemental stones, the steel cast couple had nothing to sell at home, and they were not craftsmen. Although Tormond knew a little anything, he was physically disabled and powerless, so he had no accumulation over the years. His mother said that his craft was farming, he could always make more food than others, and he could raise livestock even stronger than others. Dagon recalled his past food, and looked at his muscles, and he really felt that her craft was very skilled.

The market will be held for four consecutive days, and the first day will definitely be very lively. The residents of Jian Gucheng have all their needs, and they also took out their own handicrafts. Runeware is the most popular and the most valuable. There are special merchants at the three entrances of the market to estimate the runeware, and boxes filled with gold coins are placed beside them.

"It's human gold coins, thin and small, and a little worthless." Corona glanced at it and took this opportunity to tell Dagon some knowledge about the outside world. "Elf have the longest lifespan, and everyone recognizes their gold coins. The gold coins of our Jiangu tribe are of the best quality, the best workmanship, and the value is also high, but there are many counterfeits outside, so you have to look at them wide. The gold coins of humans and other races are uneven and the quality is not stable. Be more careful when using them. I heard that halflings use a kind of paper money - can paper be used as money? I never dared to use that kind of money."

The world outside is so big that no Jiangu tribe dares to say that she has visited all the places. Corona originally cultivated on the edge of the ancient city outside Jiangu, mainly oats, pumpkins, winter melons and cucumbers. She has seen many merchants coming and going, but it is limited to this. At the farthest point, she has been to Beer Town, just 150 miles southeast of Jiangu Ancient City. She has never been to Mopan City, which is the capital where the Jiangu Clan Conference and the elected kings are located.

This time, the chamber of commerce that came to Jian Ancient City to hold a market is called "Golden Dog". Its symbol is a cross-legged golden retriever, spitting out a big tongue with gold - actually bronze - and is energetic and cute. However, during the transaction, the merchants here all have fangs in their mouths and always want to make more money from the residents of Jian Ancient City. "I have no money to make at this price," they often say: "If you think it is not suitable, then buy/sell next time, don't hurt the harmony."

If the city lockdown order is not lifted, the next market may take twenty years, which will be too long. The people of Jiangucheng may hesitate for a long time, but in the end most of them will still be sold at a slightly disappointing price. The merchants of the Jindog Chamber of Commerce have always had smiles on their faces, which is a gentle and modest smile. When they make money, they can be happy in their hearts, and there is no need to let others know.

Dagon and Corona found a merchant who sold elemental crystals and asked him to identify the stones. The merchant was an almost bald half-ling with a big microscope on his small head. After careful observation and load-bearing, he also specifically asked what creatures the two stones came from.

"Each forty gold coins is very fair." The halfling took out a kind of brown soft paper and prepared to wrap the stones.
