Chapter two hundred and seventy-fifth life and death duel
Inside Gnom's workshop.
The enthusiastic dwarf craftsmen continued to use tools to hammer various precious metals mined from the depths of the earth in the hot regional environment.
In particular, several pieces of dark red iron, which they call Earth Dragon Gold, are being continuously hammered to remove impurities.
For this reason, the temperature in the furnace has exceeded two thousand degrees through the blessing of runes. In the fiery environment, even dwarves with outstanding physiques must change people every hour or so and take turns to temper.
With nearly 007's uninterrupted efforts, the armor Gnom promised to forge for Carter is about to be completed.
The huge steam rising into the sky along with the quenching made the entire workshop become even more foggy.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
As Gnom's quality inspection hammer sounded on the armor, the eyes of the dwarf craftsmen, who were divided into twelve shifts and took turns hammering, all focused on the armor built for Carter.
After inspecting for fifteen minutes, Genom didn't miss any corner from top to bottom. He stroked his beard and said slowly: "God of craftsmen above, you beards have done a good job! It's finished."
!I’ll pay for the drinks tonight!”
"oh!!!"
"finished!!!"
Many dwarves with bloodshot eyes raised their hammers and cheered loudly when they heard the completion.
The hard work that went on for days and nights without sleep was finally not in vain.
"Then it's up to you runesmiths to reduce the weight, strengthen it, and make it sharper, as much as you can without destroying the balance. Don't worry about the cost. This is the order placed by Lord Valaya!"
"Don't worry, it's not your turn to be a rock to teach you!"
The Rune Master who came to meet him waved his hands in disgust, and asked his men to lift the rack holding the newly completed armor, and left the steaming workshop. The Rune Master needed a quiet and stable place to work.
…
Time flies so fast, two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The elf sitting by the window let the rusty breeze blow his long hair.
In the bustling city, the dwarves continue their unchanging lives.
During the past few days of waiting, Carter often sat by the window and observed quietly. This was a rare day when he was free and did not need to think too much.
However, just one week of meditation made him realize a lot of things.
The elf touched the tips of his ears and kept folding them up and down. These long ears and longevity are the most prominent features of the elves.
"Can I keep my original intention? In just a few hundred days, I already feel tired. Whether it is a war or a peaceful day, when I think that I may have to go through hundreds of years in turn, my longevity will change in an instant.
The enviable trait of a short-lived race becomes a curse..."
Perhaps due to the fusion with Garrosi, Carter has been thinking about a lot of things these days.
He couldn't remember what happened in the subspace. This was the first time he felt that things were out of control.
"Ding ding ding! It's done!"
A parrot with particularly beautiful colors suddenly landed on Carter's lap and repeated a sentence in Dwarf language.
"Ding ding ding! It's done!"
After touching its head, Carter fed it a handful of crushed peanuts and sent the microphone away.
"No matter what, why are you thinking so much? Let's deal with Bod first, then ask for an ocean-going ship that can set off from the Blackwater River, and leave the Old Continent and return to Ulthuan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Carter turned over and jumped from the window four to five meters high, landing heavily on the ground.
"Oh, the whole ground is shaking. I thought it was a bear landing, haha."
Several neighbors who were chatting at the door began to joke when they saw Carter going out like this.
"Haha, a bear can't kill demons like me. If it could, it wouldn't be a bear."
Not paying attention to the blunt jokes of the dwarf neighbors, Carter responded casually, clapped his hands, and walked towards the location of the workshop.
He now has a pass issued by Wallaya. Except for the palace where Wallaya is located, which needs to be applied for in advance, the entire city is unimpeded.
When he arrived at the workshop, he stood at the door and hesitated for a few seconds. Finally, he took a deep breath and pushed open the iron door.
………………
In the dark forest, the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard far away.
The dark red armor looks so unique in the wilderness.
The armor is imitated from the beginning to the end of a dragon, making the wearer look like a walking dragon. Even the helmet is covered with spikes, and there are two dragon wings on both sides that imitate wings.
A heavily armored walking knight with a height of more than two meters in armor, carrying a huge lance on his shoulder, and two one-handed swords hanging diagonally from his waist.
After continuing to walk in the forest for a while, he stopped with his whole body covered by a dragon helmet, lifted up his mask and sighed.
"Ha, I've come to this place, why don't you dare to come out and face me?"
The face under the mask is none other than Carter.
After spending more than a day getting familiar with the dwarf version of the dragon helmet, he left the city, led by a team of dwarf rangers, and went to various places where the Great Demon of Khorne had appeared, looking for traces of it.
Unfortunately, there was no result. In the end, he chose to separate from the large team and plunge into the forest with a backpack of survival supplies.
Carter, who was getting more and more accustomed to his new body, no longer concealed his aura after being separated from the dwarf, and spread out the aura belonging to the dragon unscrupulously. In this way, not to mention ordinary wild animals, even the beastmen were frightened.
Dare to get close.
Perhaps in response to Carter, the sound of falling trees began to be heard not far away. Hundred-year-old trees fell one after another. A large number of birds began to take off and escape in a panic. The originally quiet forest suddenly became noisy.
The surrounding atmosphere changed instantly, and Carter's face darkened with a sense of coldness and solemnity. He put down his mask casually, put away his contempt, and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
As we walked, an isolation zone formed by fallen trees appeared in front of us.
Seeing this, Carter just lightly bent his legs, pushed hard and jumped into the middle of the four or five-meter-high trees. Then he stepped lightly and used force to jump to the top of the isolation zone.
"Huh?" The first thing that caught Carter's eyes was an open space cleared by humans. The ground was full of pits and tree pits, and all the soil at the bottom was turned out.
In the center of this empty field, stood a tall figure covered in red and holding a two-handed axe.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Pointy Ears."
Bode the All-Killer stood the ax on the ground, leaned his hands on the handle, and assumed a posture similar to the final boss.
"Oh? Can you still speak human language?"
Looking at the Khorne demon with the mark of Khorne on his head and wide eyes waiting for him, Carter smiled contemptuously. It turned out that the movement just now was that it was clearing a place for the duel.
"You do have a sense of ritual."
As he spoke, Carter also inserted the lance upside down into the soil, crossed his arms over his chest and leaned back slightly to show his contempt.
"Huh, today I want you to pay back all the shame you brought to me!"
The great demon of Khorne opened his mouth to reveal his fangs, and spoke in an off-key Elvish language. After he finished speaking, he kicked his left foot hard, and a stone as big as a fist flew towards Carter like a bullet.
"Ale Ale, you stalker is going to die today." Carter, who had crossed his arms a second ago, raised a fist and pointed it at the stone. The stone that hit his fist instantly shattered into pieces.
Turned into a pile of rubble.
"Boom!" A strong sound of breaking wind came towards him. Carter subconsciously raised his lance and "swing!" The huge impact sound resounded through the forest.
Bode the All-Killer took advantage of the moment Carter raised his hand to smash the stone and killed him.
"As expected of a Chaos Demon, he is extremely despicable!!!!"
With a roar, Carter's muscles bulged, and he pushed the great demon of Khorne backwards.
Chapter completed!
