Remember, although you are the best genius among us, you were picked up by Dark Iron City! ! It is the Black Iron Fort that nurtures you. Without the Black Iron Fort, you have already been eaten by those dirty monsters. You have to give everything you can to repay the Black Iron Fort! ! "
"What if I refuse?!!! This is not the first time, what I paid for, buying my ten lives is more than enough!!"
"No, you have no right to refuse. Your current mission is to go to the vampire city, and then develop bows and arrows with them, spy on their intelligence and bring back all the news about that city."
Bang~
After a fierce quarrel, the halfling messenger slammed the door and left.
Clayson Greyclaw, the young halfling clenched his hands tightly, his eyes full of anger.
"Am I just a tool in your eyes??
I developed and produced the most powerful bow and arrow for the Black Iron Fort, improved the siege crossbow, and made the sharpest arrow, which increased the strength of the Black Iron Fort by at least 30%, but in the end, I still did not trust you? ?
Is it just because I am not the heir of the Greyclaw tribe, you picked it back from the enemy tribe after the war? ? "
After a long time, Clarkson sighed again.
"Forget it, go to the vampire city, maybe they didn't plan to let me come back alive this time.
It's ridiculous to say that if I didn't develop such a good longbow, maybe I could still live as steadily as before...
Damn bastard, in order to enjoy this merit alone, he even sent me to a vampire to die! ! Bastard! ! "
But no matter how you complain, the military order is the military order, and the order of the Black Iron Fort may be open to the halfling, but it is especially strict for him.
Because he was an outlier picked up from the tribe that was exterminated by the Black Iron Fort after the war, if it weren't for his outstanding research talent, he might have been squeezed out of the army.
Standing up, adjusting the blue robe on his body slightly, Claisen's expression was a little subtle.
"These vampires shouldn't be able to make such exquisite and luxurious robes. Could the vampire castle lead to other cities on the surface?
If it weren't forced, I would be really curious about the surface...
According to the legend, there is warm sunshine on the surface, snow can be seen in winter, there is endless food there, the land is fertile, and there is little danger..."
After thinking for a moment, Claisen smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Maybe I think too much, it's a human city, but I went to the vampire castle.
Their city must be built in a dark and humid cave, dark and no light, the ceiling of the cave is full of bats, and the surrounding rock walls are covered with moss..."
Thinking of this, this young halfling is a little helpless. If there is a choice, who would be willing to go to that place?
"Master Claisen, everyone is ready..."
At this time, a knock on the door suddenly sounded outside the door interrupted Claisen's cranky thoughts, and took a deep breath. The young halfling made up his mind at this time.
"After coming back this time, I will resign from the army. Even if I only open a small shop in the city to make bows and crossbows in the future, I will no longer serve the so-called Greyclaw Tribe.
You have never regarded me as your own person, and the credit for encounters is yours. When encountering the task of going to the vampire city, leave it to me..."
Bang bang bang~
"Master Claisen?"
Huh~
Claisen opened the door and looked calmly at the halfling soldier in front of him.
"I'm here, is the team ready?"
The halfling soldier in black leather armor and longbow nodded, "Ready, sir."
"Well, let's go."
"Yes!"
Under the leadership of the soldiers, Claisen turned his head and glanced at the house behind him that had lived for more than ten years. The room made of black iron and stone walls was small and not high, but it carried countless amounts of him. memory.
Maybe the house will no longer belong to him after he comes back this time, because it is the army station.
Walking on the black road, the magic lamp lights up a long distance away.
There is no so-called day and night in the underground world. The light is always so dark and only the clock in the city can determine the time.
When they came to the gathering place, the black and oppressed heads of the three hundred people looked very depressed.
The leader stepped forward to salute.
"Master Claisen!"
"Are everyone here?"
"It's all here. Three hundred people are gathered. You need to lead everyone to the third barracks to take the black pecking giant eagle. They will send you to the city of dawn."
In the City of Dawn, Claisen couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he heard this name.
A city of vampires is called the City of Dawn...The of halflings is up, this is simply the funniest joke he has ever heard.
But before his men, he can only remain serious.
Although only twenty-five years old, Clayson won the position of Captain of the Second Squadron of the Bow and Arrow Manufacturing Department with his outstanding talent.
If it wasn't for the bow and arrow he developed last time that the captain took possession of him, and even sent him to the vampire city for greed, maybe he would be promoted to captain next time.
Thinking of this, Claisen's face was a little ugly, and he glanced at the crowd.
"Everyone, go!"
Although it was a chore, Claesen was unwilling to let others think that something was wrong with him.
This team is not actually the most elite bow and arrow maker in Dark Iron City, at least Claisen can recognize many people in the army who are not seen by their superiors and are excluded.
He shook his head in his heart, and sure enough, all the unlucky ghosts sent to the vampire city this time.
My mood dimmed a bit again.
Without thinking about it, he led the team out of the barracks.
But when he first stepped out of the barracks, on the street outside, a group of humans wearing pure white priest robes and handing out food to old and weak halflings begging on the street attracted Clason's attention.
He knows who these humans are, this is the daybreaking sect missionary who came to Dark Iron City yesterday.
Although it is strange why the city of vampires is preached by humans, Clarkson did not pay much attention to these priests.
He has always been extremely disdainful of these people, pastor? Is it that the group of halflings in the Dark Iron City shrine requires expensive fees for every treatment, Lord priest?
Hehe, what a group of hypocritical blood-sucking bugs, it makes people sick...
Therefore, although he would chant the of halflings, he never believed in gods. He firmly believed that there was no in this world that could be worthy of him.
The two people passed by, but unexpectedly, the female missionary of the Breaking Dawn sect showed a gentle smile, and was not as indifferent because of Claisen's indifference.
The warm smile made Claisen feel a little better.
"If you can have a few more smiles like this when you go to the vampire city, maybe this trip will be enough..."
Claisen thought about it with some extravagance, but then shook his head, met such a smile in the vampire city? He is dreaming.
Maybe it was because they came to Dark Iron City, this majestic and free city, that they would smile like this.
Thinking of this, Claisen's face was full of pride. Although he did not recognize the Greyclaw tribe, Dark Iron City was different, and this was the city that nurtured him.
With a somewhat strange emotion in his heart, Claisen led the team to the third barracks and sat on the black pecking giant eagle.
He didn't yearn for that vampire city at all, not at all, maybe they went to a place worse than the vampire castle in the troubadour population, which might be a catastrophic experience.
But this is not something he can resist.
The crazy young halfling waited until the black pecking giant eagle flew away from the black iron city and then looked at the black iron fortress that looked like a giant beast stalking behind him.
There was an inexplicable feeling in my heart, it seemed that this time I went to the dark and vampire city in the legend, and I might have a different experience.
"Could it be that the environment there is worse than imagined? Oh my god, please spare me..."
After nearly ten hours of flight, the black pecking giant eagle's team slowly stopped in front of a military fortress.
The following scenes made Claisen feel very strange.
Because he saw orcs in this castle called Greystone Fort. Yes, it is surprising enough that there are human missionaries under the vampires. There are still orcs now? ?
Those vampires enslaved so many races? ?
Although he wanted to listen to some information, under the surveillance of the soldiers who were strictly guarding him, Claesen still failed to seize the opportunity.
After entering the underground passage from the cave behind the Greystone Fort, he entered a huge cave.
Clayson bet that these orcs must have wanted to hollow out the mountain, otherwise how could they have dug such a large cave.
Then he saw the legendary vampire's exclusive mount, the huge bat.
The halfling is on top. This is a monster larger than the black pecking giant eagle. Two days ago, they said that the human missionaries were riding on this monster when they came. Unfortunately, he was experimenting with a new bowstring material. did not see.
But it feels good to sit on it.
The young halfling is extremely active, his mind is always turning.
Maybe Reed knows the other party's habits, and will definitely give him the title of a mental boy.
Huhu~
Flying in the cave is extremely thrilling, and Claisen feels that his heart is about to jump out. How can these weird big bats make continuous sharp turns and be safe? ?
If it was a black pecking giant eagle flying in the cave, I'm afraid it will hit the wall directly when turning around before long. It's a strange life.
He felt that flying for several epochs was so long...
But after the initial thrills passed, Claesen quickly became bored and lethargic.
Damn, he missed his laboratory, he just got a new kind of monster bone and experiment this morning, maybe this strange material can improve his last bowstring...
Just when Claisen was completely deprived of spirit, suddenly there was an exclamation around him, and then a closed rock face appeared in front of him.
There is no way!
Claisen's eyes widened suddenly, his doze just disappeared, and he exclaimed.
"Stop, bastard, there is no way ahead!!"
But this passage was only a few hundred blades long, and it took a few breaths to reach the rock wall.
The giant bat under Clarkson didn't pay attention to his yelling, but continued to fan its wings toward the uneven rocky cliff.
Just when Claisen's body was slammed up and he was about to jump off the magic word bat, suddenly there was another exclamation in front of him, and the magic word bat that reached the rock wall first passed through directly.
The door of space? ?
Claisen's face became stiff, he felt relieved instantly, and then he was a little embarrassed. Was his reaction too big, a bit embarrassing...
Sure enough, after his magic word bat flew past, he didn't crash into the cliff, but came to a new place.
Claisen only felt a cold body, and then entered a space full of gray aura, but he flew out before he could react.
Go through the door of space?
When Claisen hadn't recovered, an extremely cold breath pounced on his face.
He wears a lot of clothes in the underground world. In this coldness, it is like taking a shower naked next to a clean pool in summer.
Under the high-speed flight of the magic word bat, even a few cold winds were blown into him, and Claisen shuddered a few times, and his teeth creaked.
But this young halfling had no other care, and at this time, his heart was full of shock at the objects in the foreground.
Snowflakes like white feathers fluttered down in the sky, with a cold and very special touch, slightly held in the hand, and quickly melted.
Although the light was slightly dim because of the snow, it seemed to Claesen that it was already shining his eyes with a magic lamp.
It is totally different from the underground world.
Looking into the distance, the line of sight is extremely wide, and he can even see the sky far away.
Amazing.
Clarkson felt that his soul was being baptized.
He lowered his head slightly, at this time the earth was covered with a thick layer of white snow, and the whole world was white.
"Too shocking? Is this the surface world?
I know that this kind of thing falling from the sky must be snow! !
Hahaha, it is unbelievable. There is something like snow in this world. Is this a gift from the God of Creation? ?
It's so wonderful that the halfling is on top! ! "
When the young halfling saw the sudden landscape, he forgot his worries, his face was full of joy and smile.
After a while, after all the magic word bats came out of the open space door, the blood race led the team to inspect it again, and after confirming that there were no young people, they said loudly.
"Friends of the Black Iron Fort, welcome to the city of Dawn. Next, I will take you to the new city of the city of Dawn. I hope you can leave a good memory in this great city..."
The voice echoed in the sky, and then before anyone else responded, the magic word bat turned its direction and flew towards the other side
All the magic word bats immediately followed, and at this time Claisen recovered his senses. After a little look, he finally saw the city covered in ice and snow.
The city of dawn.
"This, how could this be the city of vampires???"
Looking down in the sky, Claisen couldn't even see the end of the city at a glance. Various towering buildings emerged in an endless stream, not inferior to the black iron fort, which has been passed down for thousands of years, and even wider in construction area.
With shock and disbelief in his heart, Claisen opened his mouth wide and was filled with a few breaths of air-conditioning. After a few dry coughs, he was relieved.
When he flew over the city, Claesen's eyes were already filled with surprise.
This city is not only vast, but more importantly, there are so many humans walking back and forth on the streets.
Is this a joke? ?
Even if vampires send humans to preach, in such a big city, vampires can't see a few places but they are all humans.
Is this a vampire city? ? ?
With a full of weird feelings, Claesen slowly landed on the square in the center of the city under the guidance of the blood leader.
And seeing them coming, the surrounding residents who were watching the excitement immediately surrounded them.
Among them, the goblins and the dwarves talked and laughed with each other, the humans and the orcs were shoulder to shoulder, and the air was full of gossip and the joyous atmosphere of watching a play.
"Damn goblin, you won your bet, and you got it right and you want to land in this square, bastard, why did you get it right?"
"Hahaha, are your dwarves all stones in their minds? The notices around the square have been announced, and these five Kimpuks are mine!! Praise the Lord Kachar!"
"Is this a halfling? Hahaha, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is exactly the same as the picture on the propaganda wall..."
"Tsk tusk tusk, are these guys really underground beings? Although the lower body is alien, the upper body is actually quite energetic. What are they here for?"
"Didn't you hear? These halflings are going to join the Magic Industry Research Institute..."
"Hey, I'm so envious. The Magic Industry Research Institute has two Jinpuke's salary in one month..."
"Bah, what do you know, three! My brother's neighbor's daughter's friend is a member of the Magic Industry Research Institute! I know!"
"What, it's up again?!! I must go back and teach my son a good lesson. He has failed the exam all day. If I fail to pass the exams of the College of Dawn and become a member of the Institute of Magic Industry in the future, I will not interrupt his legs. !
All day long, I knew that I went to see what heating and vegetable sheds built by the Ministry of Construction. I was off! "
Claisen stared at the crowds around him enthusiastically as if they were visiting rare animals, and was stunned for a while.
Dwarves, goblins, orcs, humans, and there are cyclops, that's all, what the is a two-headed ogre? ?
How can these messy lives live in such a harmonious city? ?
What about the good vampire city? ? ?
How is this? ?
What other Institute of Magic Industry, what heating...
At this moment, he wanted to turn his head and ask the blood race of the leader if they came to the wrong place? ?
And these humans, don’t you see that they are an army? Why dare to talk so loudly? ?
Where is this place? ? ?
This young halfling was messed up in the cold wind...
