Chapter 213: Gong De was shocked and drank the dragon's blood again
Boom——
The waves splashing from the distant magma sea and the roar coming from their collision with the magma surface echoed what Tang Zheng said.
Lava Zone!
All the dwarf craftsmen showed a look of horror on their faces, and they retreated backwards in unison. Some of them even lost their balance and fell to the ground.
This is an area even more terrifying than the Great Rift. The sun anglerfish located in the magma sea is a magical beast that has lived for a long time and is known as a superior species.
If you stay here, you may die at any time!
"Everyone, don't worry. The sun anglerfish inside won't disturb you. Although the temperature here is a bit hot, it is a very quiet place."
Tang Zheng spoke softly to the frightened dwarf craftsmen, and waved his hand in the direction of the lava sea behind them:
"Thunderball."
Hiss~
The azure electric light gathered in Tang Zheng's palm, condensing into a thunder ball the size of two basketballs, which instantly blasted towards the magma sea behind.
Boom!
Lightning flashed in the air.
As the thunder ball fell into the distant magma sea with a loud bang, apart from the magma sparks exploding on the surface of the magma sea, there was indeed no other movement inside.
"Gudong."
The sounds of swallowing came and went.
A group of dwarf craftsmen huddled together and looked at Tang Zheng with some fear.
"Third-tier magic: Thunderball."
A faint, nervous voice whispered among the dwarves.
Many of the dwarves present were knowledgeable and knew that Tang Zheng had just used third-tier magic. One should know that the strongest magic caster in the entire dwarf clan was able to use third-tier magic.
Even if you don't understand.
The power released by the "thunder ball" just now clearly shows that the mysterious human in front of them is enough to easily kill everyone present.
What shocked all the dwarves even more was how the other party brought them here without them noticing!
This is a lava zone. It is not only far away from the new city they are building, but the journey is also extremely dangerous. During the entire process, none of them noticed it.
"You are human, right?"
"We dwarves haven't had trade contact with humans for a long time. Why did you bring us here?"
Among the dwarf craftsmen, a dwarf wearing a helmet and with a brown beard tied into a three-strand ponytail came out first and spoke loudly:
"I and the others are just ordinary civilians. If you want to get information about our dwarves, you should capture someone of higher status."
"Gong De." A nervous voice came from the group of dwarves in the back, as if reminding the dwarf who spoke first not to anger the human in front of him.
"What are you afraid of? You coward."
"This guy brought us here easily without being discovered. He must be very strong. He can't escape anyway. The worst that can happen is that he will be killed."
"Foolish Gong De, don't you see that we are all craftsmen? How could this human catch ordinary people like us if he wanted to obtain intelligence?"
"I just mean, why do you all look so familiar?"
"You just realized that, you idiot!"
"We are all craftsmen. This human won't let us build a house for him here."
"Maybe it's to make weapons."
"Do humans actually like to live in places with such high temperatures?"
"do not know."
"Don't you realize that everyone here is a craftsman who has mastered Rune technology?"
"Rune technology? Humans would care about this obsolete craft. Don't they have simpler magic technology?"
"I still like building houses. At least I won't starve to death."
A chaotic and noisy sound continued to echo among the group of dwarves.
Looking at the dwarves who were quarreling in an instant.
Tang Zheng couldn't help but be stunned.
He originally thought that it would take some time for these dwarves to accept the situation, but it seemed that these dwarves were very accepting of the current situation.
They are really a group of people with carefree and direct personalities.
No, that’s not entirely true.
Tang Zheng glanced at the gray dwarf blacksmith minister next to him. The character of the gray dwarfs was obviously more violent and dark.
Even within the same race, there are still quite obvious differences between different subspecies.
Gong De?
Tang Zheng glanced at the dwarf who spoke first. Judging from his name, he should be the dwarf who was first encountered by Bone King in the anime.
The other party did not have much talent in Rune technology, but his grandfather and father were both chief Rune craftsmen among the dwarves.
Snapped!
Seeing the dwarves still arguing, Tang Zheng raised his hands and clapped them, interrupting the chaotic voices of the crowd: "Okay, everyone."
"Let me introduce you to everyone. This is a gray dwarf, a subspecies of your dwarf race, and a master rune craftsman."
"You are here because I want to ask for your help in creating a piece of armor with the power of runes."
After hearing what Tang Zheng said,
Many dwarves looked at the Minister of Blacksmithing curiously. It was also the first time they saw a gray dwarf. The skin color was indeed different from theirs, and their appearance was also more ferocious.
at the same time!
What no one is paying attention to is the creation of Rune armor.
Gong De and others frowned even more.
"Human, perhaps you don't know much about Rune technology, or maybe you heard rumors about Rune technology from somewhere, which gave you this idea."
"To tell you the truth, Rune technology is already outdated compared to your human demonization technology."
A dwarf with a longer beard and a serious expression stepped forward and spoke loudly:
"The Rune technology is different from your human magic technology. The key lies in the magical Rune characters, and these characters have basically been lost."
"What we have are only some low-level and medium-level characters. Even if we can help you make a rune armor, it may not be as good as a magic item."
Although these words may seem to boost others' morale and undermine one's own prestige, they are true.
The dwarf craftsmen were even more silent.
Gong De frowned his thick eyebrows, snorted, turned around, and looked at the dwarf craftsmen with some anger.
Both his father and grandfather were the chief rune craftsmen of the dwarf tribe. He did not have any talent in this area, but he did not want to see this skill being belittled in this way.
Especially by one’s own people!
"So, it's because of ideas like yours that this technology continues to decline!"
"It's just sheer stupidity!"
Gong De spoke loudly in anger, and then turned to look at Tang Zheng, as if to prove the value of Rune's technology:
"Lune technology also has its advantages, that is, it doesn't cost money!"
"Although your human magic technology far exceeds our rune technology in terms of productivity, it requires extremely high costs for magic engineering."
"And Rune technology does not require any extra material costs!"
When the dwarves saw that Gond was a little agitated, they looked at each other and shook their heads slightly. They were not angry about what Gond had just said.
They all knew Gong De's character very well.
and.
No matter how excited Gong De was, he could not deny that Rune technology was already outdated. However!
A happy laugh was heard, causing all the dwarves to stare blankly at the laughing human.
"That's just awesome isn't it."
Tang Zheng looked at the excited Gong De with a smile on his face.
The reason why Bone King cares about Rune technology is because Rune technology does not require any extra costs, which is also what Tang Zheng cares about.
to be exact!
As for the "money expenditure", it's actually not a big problem. The key is that the other world is not a game, and there are no high-level materials to forge those top-notch equipment.
The key to the level of magic equipment made by Rune technology lies in the "Rune text".
Coincidentally.
He has a set of armor with four high-level runes in his hand, which is also the pinnacle work of the gray dwarf clan.
Gong De looked at Tang Zheng in a daze.
"What's your name?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Gonde! Gonde Fayabiod, I am a Rune technology developer." Gonde spoke loudly, his face flushed a little.
A few low laughs came from the group of dwarves in the back.
"Development expert? That sounds like a great concept." Tang Zheng nodded, then glanced at the other dwarf craftsmen:
"It seems that you all have understood that I have no ill intentions. What I need your help with is not to create a new rune item, but to make a replica of it."
While talking.
Tang Zheng waved his hand, and a piece of armor that looked tattered and even had several marble-sized holes appeared in his hand.
He handed the tattered armor to the Minister of Blacksmithing beside him.
The Minister of Blacksmithing took it solemnly, and then walked towards them under the gaze of the dwarves. Finally, he fully unfolded the armor, exposing it to the sight of all the dwarf craftsmen.
Gong De was the first to look over curiously.
The first thing that came to his mind when he saw the armor, besides the fact that it was tattered, was that the material used to make it should be a mineral he had never seen before.
"this is……"
"Never seen runes before!"
"And there are four of them. These characters are not included in the low-level characters. Are they mid-level characters?"
"Not sure?"
"This armor is too badly damaged. The power of the runes has been completely lost."
"It's just four runes. What's so great about it? The legendary treasure of our dwarf tribe has 12 runes."
"..."
As four never-before-seen runes on the armor appeared in front of the dwarf craftsmen, all the dwarves gathered around.
"Humph!"
Minister Blacksmith snorted. Even though he was being "charmed by all races", he still spoke in a proud voice: "Don't use your stupid heads to think about the greatness of this armor."
"These are four highest-level runes!"
The air suddenly became quiet, and all the dwarf craftsmen widened their eyes and looked at the Minister of Blacksmithing in disbelief, as if to say, "Are you kidding me?"
After a short silence.
The noisy voices of the dwarf craftsmen instantly resounded all around, and Gond was squeezed out of the crowd.
But soon!
Gong De lay on the ground with his limbs, used his head to force a path through the crowd, crawled to the front of the armor, and looked at the four highest-level characters on the armor with shining eyes.
This is their lost Rune script!
At this moment, the dwarf craftsmen had long forgotten the fear they felt when they first woke up and the desire to leave. Everyone gathered around the armor and discussed it.
The Minister of Blacksmithing would speak from time to time, explaining some of the methods of Rune technology in preparation for the subsequent replica of the armor.
See this scene.
Tang Zheng knew that this group of dwarves might not be able to calm down in a short period of time, and he also needed to use the Minister of Blacksmithing to let these dwarf rune craftsmen know how to replicate the armor next.
Let the dwarves argue with the Minister of Blacksmithing.
Tang Zheng brought the evil dog to a nearby mountain wall and took out a water bag from the prop box while waiting.
As soon as the water bag was taken out, it began to emit puffs of steam. The entire water bag was made of strong cowhide and was extremely tough.
But it was just a blink of an eye.
The water hose actually began to soften, as if it could not withstand the force of the liquid inside and might break at any time.
This was the water bag that Tang Zheng used to collect the blood that splashed when the ancient fire dragon died.
Tang Zheng picked up the water bag and poured it into his mouth. Red liquid flowed out with a strong fishy smell and scalding hot temperature, going down his throat into his body.
After drinking all the dragon blood in the water bag in one breath.
next moment!
Tang Zheng felt a sudden surge of heat in his body, perhaps due to the abilities of "nullification of fire attribute" and "complete resistance to curse".
The heat flow was not strong, but extremely powerful. However, it did not cause any effect or harm to Tang Zheng. It just spread randomly in his body, causing his breath to surge and vibrate.
Boom!
Boom!
Tang Zheng seemed to feel the sound of his own heart beating violently, silently sensing the effect of the dragon blood. With a thought in his mind, he looked at the attribute panel.
To test the effect of drinking dragon's blood directly, we should first conduct experiments on other creatures.
But just by observing the negative effects produced by the evil dog consuming a small amount of dragon blood, Tang Zheng already knew that ordinary creatures simply could not withstand the power of dragon blood.
not to mention.
A large amount of dragon blood may very likely cause a curse, so Tang Zheng can only experience this change personally.
One side.
The evil dog lay on the ground trembling, its eyes full of fear. The power emanating from the dragon blood in the water bag just now made its whole body limp.
Time passed little by little.
The attributes that had been motionless before began to change again.
……
『HP:449→450』
『Physical Defense: 248→249』
『Magic Defense: 263→264』
……
Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes, and his HP, physical defense, and magic defense actually increased a little at the same time.
The last time, not much dragon blood entered his mouth, so it only increased his HP. This time, after drinking a large amount of dragon blood, both his physical defense and magical defense increased at the same time.
"The profession has not been triggered. For now, it is just an increase in three attributes."
Tang Zheng thought silently in his heart, feeling that the chaos and strong heat in his body had not dissipated, and continued to watch the attributes.
