Tome of Blood - Chapter 172
Chapter 172-22-It is really dangerous
The old werewolf looked Sebastian and Charlotte up and down, and finally stopped on Charlotte, frowning:
“Lu Fu, let’s not mention this brother of your clan, what’s going on with this little guy?”
“Old Logan, although Leisa is not very old, she is already quite strong, and she can do things.”
Luf pretended not to understand the meaning of the question in the old werewolf’s eyes, and replied evasively.
Old Werewolf: …
“You know that’s not what I asked…”
He frowned and said.
“Old Logan, Leisa herself strongly requested, she also wants to do something, besides, there are people around her age too?”
Luf gestured to the dirty little werewolf in the team.
The old werewolf suddenly had nothing to say.
Sighing, he shook his head:
“That’s all.”
“Since they are members of your tribe, they can be regarded as our own. It is not impossible to bring them along, but they can only do it outside and cannot go deep into the mining area.”
“As you know, although the supervisor of the mining workshop turns a blind eye to the outer mining area, the inner area has always been strictly inspected. After all… Mithril **** can be easily found there.”
Luf suddenly laughed and said:
“Of course, they are newbies, and it’s good to just work outside.”
The old werewolf hesitated for a moment, then said:
“In addition, I also advise you not to go deep into the mining area with us. We are people who have passed the test of time. Even if we go deep into the mining area, we will not encounter danger, but you are different.”
Luf nodded and said with a smile:
“Don’t worry, old Logan, I know what to do.”
Luf’s answer did not satisfy the old werewolf, his expression became serious instantly:
“Lu Fu, I’m serious, and you should be serious too.”
As he spoke, he glanced at the demihumans who were looking at them curiously, and suddenly stretched out his withered arm tremblingly, forcibly pulled Lu Fu aside, and said in a low voice:
“Luf, you are the only werewolf I have seen in so many years that can still explode the power of your own blood.”
“I don’t know how you did it, and I don’t know what you have encountered, but I know that you may represent the future of our demihumans…”
“People like you should not come to the mining area, but should go to a wider world to find a better way out for the clansmen.”
Speaking of which, the old werewolf sighed softly with a complicated expression:
“Demihumans, no one has awakened the totem power for many years…”
Looking at the sad and lonely eyes of the old werewolf, and listening to the sincere concern in his words, Lu Fu felt a little warmth in his heart:
“Old Logan, I…”
The old werewolf interrupted him:
“Listen to me first.”
“I know that your purpose of inviting me to drink and asking me for news is not pure, but… these are not important.”
“It doesn’t matter whether you want to go deep into the mine to pick up some silver mine residues, or ask for the secrets of the mine for someone.”
“I have been observing for several days, and I can see that you have feelings for everyone, and… you really want to use Castel as a settlement for the tribe.”
“With these, it is enough.”
“Luf, the mining area is not as simple as you imagined. The last time you entered the inner mining area and you returned safely, it does not mean that this time it is still safe… You do not know that in the past, most of the compatriots who entered the mining area and disappeared were the first It disappeared the second time.”
“Maybe, the last time you entered the inner mining area, you were already targeted by monsters.”
Listening to the old werewolf’s heartfelt words, Lu Fu’s eyes were a little complicated.
He gave a long sigh and said:
“Don’t worry, old Logan, since I’m bringing Basser and Leisa with me, I will definitely stay with them.”
The old werewolf felt relieved and nodded in satisfaction:
“So much the better.”
After finishing speaking, he came back to the crowd again, looked at Sebastian who was also made into a werewolf by Shirley, and said seriously:
“Your name is Basel, right?”
“Mr. Logan.”
Sebas gave a slight greeting.
Even though he was disguised as a werewolf, he still smiled so gracefully and decently.
Seeing that sunny smile, the old werewolf was obviously taken aback.
After a little hesitation, he solemnly looked, half warning and half exhorting:
“I think you have an unusual temperament, and you must have a wonderful past. You should be a cultured werewolf.”
“However, since you have come to the Castel mining area, you have to do things according to the rules of the mining area. Here, the most important thing is not to leave the mining area designated by the workshop for you.”
“I think you should have heard Luf talk about the legend of the monster in the mining area. I won’t repeat it. I just need to emphasize that in the mining area, not only is it dangerous to go deep into the mining area, it is also dangerous to leave your designated mining area rashly. !”
“If you want to earn Quintana well, then you must be honest and follow the rules!”
As he spoke, he looked at Charlotte next to Sebastian again, with a slightly relaxed expression, and said:
“Also… take care of your sister and don’t let her show up. Although a werewolf like her won’t disappear because of monsters, it’s not safe either.”
“Not safe?”
Sebas tentatively asked.
However, he ushered in the old werewolf with a contemptuous reprimand, who was sprayed with saliva all over his face:
“Don’t you understand? Do I have to be so blunt? Is a cute little guy like her able to come to a place like a mine! For her, a mine supervisor is much more dangerous than a legendary monster!”
Sebastian: …
He nodded and replied respectfully:
“You are right, if those mine supervisors act recklessly, it is indeed quite dangerous.”
The old werewolf nodded in satisfaction:
“That’s not bad!”
“Okay, come here together, it will be safer to cover your sister’s hair to make her look like a tomboy.”
He waved to Charlotte and Sebastian.
Sebas looked at Charlotte, who nodded, motioning for him to tie her hair up and stuff it into the scarf.
As for why she doesn’t do it herself…it’s simply because she doesn’t know how to tie her hair.
That’s right, she hasn’t learned how to comb her hair for a year, and the life of being served by a maid every day is how it can turn people into waste.
Traveling through a year, let alone developing new life skills, some abilities in the previous life are a little rusty because they were served too well.
After rearranging, Charlotte became a little werewolf.
But it’s a pity, because of her natural beauty, even with makeup on and her hair tied up, she still looks eye-catching among the many disgraced werewolves.
The old werewolf sighed, and suddenly picked a large piece of dust from the ground.
“Put this ashes on your face.”
He came to Charlotte and said.
Looking at the big lump of pickled dirt, Luf hesitated to speak, and Sebastian also hesitated to speak.
Charlotte, on the other hand, grabbed it generously, and it got stuck on Sebas’s face with emotion in his eyes.
“Okay, let’s go.”
The old werewolf nodded in satisfaction, then turned and walked towards the mining area.
Under the moonlight, although his back was hunchback and small, Charlotte felt that his reflection was so tall.
Blood clan has keen perception.
She heard the conversation between the old werewolf and Luf.
Through traveling for a year, most of the nobles Charlotte met were perverted and weird, but now she saw such a dedicated and responsible werewolf old leader in the mining area, which made her feel emotional.
The werewolves who are regarded as barbarians by the civilized world, who are struggling to survive, still have a bright heart, but they have the right to speak, and many of the high-ranking human aristocrats are self-defeating. I have to say that it is really a kind of irony.
Integrating into the large army of demi-human miners, Charlotte finally managed to sneak into the mining area.
Facts have proved that she chose to mix into the mining area in this way is very correct, because after entering the mining area, she found a large number of defensive magic circles and patrolling soldiers around.
The protection work in the Castel mining area is still very good. Charlotte reckoned that if she didn’t use the power of the blood god, it would be difficult for her to sneak in.
Divine power is cherished, and it must be used wisely. It is a little bit to save a little bit.
Seeing the team of demi-human miners, people from the mining workshop soon came to meet them. Charlotte noticed that it was a human being in charge, but it should not be a nobleman.
The relationship between him and the old werewolf was unexpectedly good, and he didn’t make things too difficult. He even just briefly scanned the people in the team, and let everyone in without careful inspection.
This surprised Charlotte again. She suddenly felt that the seemingly heavily guarded mining area… seemed to be not without loopholes.
“Mr. Maer is a friend of Grandpa Logan. Generally speaking, he doesn’t make things difficult for us. He actually knows that we often bring some other clansmen to mine to earn Quintana, and he turns a blind eye to it. gone.”
As if answering Charlotte’s curiosity, a tender and clear voice sounded beside her.
Charlotte’s heart moved slightly, and when she looked over, she found that it was the young werewolf who was about the same age as her.
“Noah, you can call me Noah.”
The werewolf Xiaozheng said.
Different from the dirty and embarrassed appearance, his voice is tender and crisp, which is very nice.
Charlotte moved slightly in her heart, and smiled innocently at him:
“Hi Noah, my name is Reza.”
Under Charlotte’s smile, the werewolf Xiaozheng was slightly stunned, but he soon came to his senses.
Um?
Charlotte was a little surprised.
Although her face has already been blurred to many layers, she has been using the blood magic of the spiritual **** system for more than a year, which has already created a natural charm in her gestures.
As long as she is deliberate, there are very few people under the advanced level who can not be moved by her smile. Those creatures who think with their lower body can easily become obsessed and subconsciously develop a good impression of her.
But the speed of the little werewolf’s sobriety was much faster than the flower peacocks at the noble banquet.
Charlotte suddenly became curious about this young lady.
But the werewolf Xiaozheng said seriously:
“Sister Leisha, don’t smile at strangers in the future, it’s too dangerous for you.”
Charlotte: …
Why do I feel like I have been taught a lesson by a kid who is not as old as me?
“Actually, you shouldn’t have come. The mine is not a place for a little girl like you to stay, even if we are werewolves.”
Noah said again.
Charlotte smiled slightly, and pointed to Sebas who was beside her:
“It’s okay, I have my brother to protect me.”
Noah was silent.
He glanced at Sebas, his expression suddenly became a little complicated, but in the end he didn’t say anything, but silently retreated into the team.
Sebastian glanced at the little werewolf unexpectedly:
“I thought he would say that if he were me, he wouldn’t let his sister come with him.”
Charlotte sighed:
“It seems that everyone here has a story.”
“Hey, who in this world doesn’t have their own story yet.”
Sebastian seemed to be recalled by Charlotte’s words, and shook his head with a smile.
“Silence!”
The old werewolf’s dissatisfied voice came from the front of the team.
Glancing at Charlotte who had calmed down, Sebastian immediately shut up.
Through the open-pit mine outside the mining area, a group of people quickly entered the real mine under the leadership of the old werewolf.
Of course, it is said to be a mine, but it looks like a steampunk dungeon to Charlotte.
Hundreds of years of mining, the mines of Castel Mine are criss-crossed, and a huge network has already been formed underground. The mines are brightly lit, and hundreds of miners are busy working, some pushing and pulling Some of the minecarts on the track were holding hammer axes or chisels made of unknown materials to hammer and mine ore, and some dwarf craftsmen were operating huge, bulky and steaming alchemy equipment of unknown purpose…
However, Charlotte unexpectedly found no magic equipment.
After all, it is a magical world. She thought she would see some magical devices. In her opinion, magic is the primary productive force.
But she thought about it for a while and realized that the extraordinary power in the world of Myria is monopolized by the nobles, and magicians are inseparable from operating magic equipment, and there are no magic tools that ordinary people can use.
Developing magic props that ordinary people can use is considered taboo by the Mage Association, and it is considered a blasphemy against the **** of magic and elements!
Many magicians are also nobles. Even if they are not nobles, they are often hired by nobles with a lot of money or become well-known mercenaries with extremely high commissions.
Under such circumstances, places like mines will definitely not hire mages, after all, they are too expensive.
The mithril mine is not bad, but if you dare to hire a magician in a place like the mithril mine, it will have the same effect as inviting a mouse to look at the granary. Among the mages, who doesn’t have one or two small magic skills, take the opportunity to get some precious mithril The material is too normal.
So…the ones who finally work in the mine are mortals, as well as non-magic power-type superhumans.
Charlotte looked at everything in the mine curiously, and inspected this “underground city” that was nominally her own. However, she didn’t stay here for too long, and soon followed the large army into a mine tunnel.
In front of the mine road is a mining cave, under the dilapidated oil lamp, there are spots of silver light shining, and some demi-human miners have already worked here in advance.
The old werewolf stopped, and said to Charlotte:
“Luf, Basser, and Leisa, you can do it here too. The tools are ready, and you can do as much as you can. After dawn, the wages will match the ore, but don’t force it. After all, the body is the most important thing. .”
“Also, don’t try to hide the ore and take it back. There will be special magic equipment for inspection in the mine.”
After finishing speaking, the old werewolf looked at the young werewolf Mrs. Zheng:
“Noah, you also stay and work here.”
“Why? I also want to enter the inner mining area! It’s okay to go so many times before!”
The little werewolf said dissatisfied.
The old werewolf Logan glared at him immediately:
“It’s okay, you wolf cub! Don’t think that I don’t know what you want to do with me. You say you want to mine, but you actually want to find the dragon in the mine. Are you desperate?”
“But! There are real dragons in the mines!”
“Then I can’t let you go with it, it angered it, do you want everyone to be buried with it!”
Old Logan glared at him again.
“No…it won’t, it won’t, I’m sure it won’t!”
The werewolf Xiaozheng shook his head desperately.
