Arcane Lord

The fourth day after Midsummer.

In the early morning, Sha Duo, who had stayed up all night at the workplace, came to Savile Town smelling of alcohol.

The South District that I was once familiar with has long since changed, and Old Neil's hotel has now changed its sign. Obviously, even without Xia Duo's deliberate suppression, the hotel without Old Neil could not survive in the end.

However, Xia Duo did not regret killing Old Neil. If he just wanted to enslave himself, Xia Duo, who had just traveled from the earth not long ago, would not be murderous.

But letting the Necromancer attack and kill him, there is nothing to say. The pajamas he brought from the earth appeared in the Necromancer's dimensional bag, which is proof.

At that time, he was extremely insecure. How could he allow such an enemy to continue to live? On the day he saw the pajamas, Shado returned to Savile Town overnight and killed Old Neil.

Now standing in front of Old Neil's hotel again, Xia Duo felt quite emotional.

Not far from Old Neil's Hotel is Broto's blacksmith shop. Shado ran here a lot when he first crossed over. After all, a true fantasy creature is very rare.

However, that's all after seeing too much, especially after Sha Duo saw the elves with his own eyes and saw the elves preparing meat, he knew that these fantasy creatures were actually "people" with different shapes.

Of course, it would be more accurate to say that they are intelligent creatures.

…

Within a few steps, Shado arrived at Brotto's blacksmith shop. Outside, a sign with a huge hammer and a long beard was swaying feebly. Inside the blacksmith shop, the familiar dwarf was lying leisurely on an armchair. Drinking a small drink.

Seeing Xia Duo come in, Brotto raised his head slightly, but immediately put it back. Xia Duo was not annoyed and took the initiative to say hello: "Uncle Brotto, long time no see, you are still so energetic!"

"Hey, isn't this Master Xia Duo? How come you have time to come to this little place like mine!" The dwarf's unique rock-like voice sounded, obviously with a bit of dissatisfaction.

But when Xia Duo heard it, he knew that this response should be stable. In the days before entering the Tower of Time, due to his strong insecurity, he spent almost all his time figuring out others and maintaining a friendly and harmless attitude. In terms of personality.

After all, this is about your own life, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful.

Shado also knew the dwarf Broto quite well. He was stubborn and unkind, but if he could scratch his itch, the dwarf was easy to get along with.

For example, complimenting the other party's braided beard from time to time is more useful than complimenting the other party's forging skills.

Of course, the most important thing is sincerity.

But at that time, Xia Duo was extremely insecure. He almost wanted to take out his heart to prove that he was harmless. He hoped that others would not harm him. In terms of treating others, he could be said to be extremely sincere.

Even when facing the most desperate adventurer, he never gave him a bad look.

Not to mention the dwarves, from the current perspective of Xia Duo, it can almost be called heartfelt and flattering.

And when Brotto agreed to help Xia Duo hammer the dagger a few times, Brotto recognized Xia Duo as a human friend.

The lifespan of dwarves is very different from that of humans, and their concept of time is also very different from humans. If human friends don't contact each other for several years, the relationship may become estranged, but dwarves——

When Xia Duo saw it, he was not angry at all. He might have a little temper, but as a friend, a little temper is normal.

"Uncle Broto, didn't I just get a bottle of good wine and I thought of you?"

With that said, Chateau took out the spirit that had been distilled all night. There was only one bottle, which was not quite full. However, the moment he took out the bottle, Brotto's head lifted up involuntarily. .

Chateau put the bottle on the anvil aside. Brotto jumped up from the couch, grabbed the bottle and stuffed it into his arms. This action was hardly like a dwarf who was as stocky as a barrel. More like a flexible and lightweight dwarf.

Maybe dwarves are relatives of dwarfs.

"I knew it, I knew it!" Brotto held the bottle and kept sniffing, "I smelled it before you came in. Is this ale? How come it has such a strong smell?"

Chateau stayed in the workroom all night, and his body was tainted with the smell of alcohol. However, because he was going to see Brotto, he did not remove these smells. In fact, he himself did not like the smell of alcohol.

"You'll know after you drink it!" Xia Duo said with a smile.

"Really give me a drink?" Brotto couldn't believe it. He actually knew very well that Xia Duo brought the wine to him because he must have something to do with him, but he was still a little hesitant when he asked for a drink before he asked what was going on.

But after all, he was too addicted to alcohol. Brotto grumbled, uncorked the bottle, and started drinking.

So Xia Duo saw another scene since time travel that was enough to make his jaw drop. After Blotto took a few sips, his brown face turned red almost at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then he stood on the same spot, swaying. After walking around for a while, he was about to fall down.

Is this a dwarf who likes to drink? !

Fortunately, I had seen the scene of elves buying meat before, and it was not unacceptable for a dwarf to be drunk. Shado quickly reached out to help Broto. As soon as he took over, he could really feel the "tonnage" of the dwarf.

It can hold up to at least two humans, and "tonnage" also means strength to a certain extent.

Xia Duo was thoughtful.

After helping Brotto lie down on the recliner, Brotto still poured wine into his mouth. He didn't drink wine until the bottle was finished, then he smacked his mouth and tried to get up. Every time he was halfway through the drink, he poured wine again. Go down.

Chateau wanted to laugh when he saw it, shook his head, and was about to leave and come back in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, Brotto actually spoke. Although his voice was a little vague, it was quite coherent:

"Xia Duo, I'm not drunk. What do you want from me? Tell me quickly. As long as I can do it, I will do it for you. This wine, this wine is so delicious!"

"I want to ask you to help me build some weapons. Don't worry, just take a nap first!"

Although the threat of the giant dragon may come at any time, what else can Xia Duo say in this situation!

No, the more Xia Duo said this, the more Broto struggled to get up, "No, no, are you looking down on the dwarf's drinking capacity? If I say I can do it, I will definitely do it. Help me, help me up!"

He even said something he couldn't stand, so Xia Duo had no choice but to do as he was told, but he was still quite suspicious of Brotto's words.

If you can still forge weapons in this state, why can't you stand up on your own?

…

After standing up, Broto pushed Xia Duo away. Although his feet were still a little shaky, he did stand still. "Hammer, where is my hammer? Oh, I remembered it!"

When Shado heard Brotto start speaking vaguely in Dwarf language and wandering around, he knew that this guy must be really drunk, but he also wanted to see how long Brotto could last.

So he stood aside and waited quietly.
