The Endless Abyss of Online Games

Hearing Hatar's name from Cyrus, Shen Ce couldn't help showing a slightly surprised look on his face: "You even know him?"

The old dwarf is a dead-tempered craftsman, and Selos himself is also rebellious. It is amazing that these two people can be related.

With a smile on his lips, Silos raised his left hand, and a silver ring on the index finger gleamed under the sunlight: "This ring was forged by him, what do you think?"

Shen Ce was startled for a moment, his eyes were focused on the ring, and then he couldn't help rubbing the "spirit ring cursed by the devil" with his right hand.Shen Ce's throat moved slightly, and his voice was urgent: "Then do you know Hatar's teacher?"

Although the attribute bonus of the spirit ring in his hand was not bad, Shen Ce's heart was always thorned in the fact that it had not been fully recovered. Shen Ce is a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and strives for perfection in everything.

Sai Luosi noticed that Shen Ce's expression was different from usual, he dropped his left hand, and said indifferently, "His teacher? There was a chance meeting before, and it is precisely because of this that Hattar is willing to make a ring for me."

Shen Ce didn't have any hope at all, he just asked casually, but he didn't expect that Selos actually met Hatar's teacher.Shen Ce couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and asked quickly, "Then do you know where he is now?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Shen Ce realized his gaffe, and he quickly recovered his original composure—it's fine that Selos actually knew Hatar, but the ghost in Hatar's mouth, who hadn't seen him for hundreds of years, was fine. The mentor in front of him actually knows how unnatural this kind of luck is!

Silos shook his head, his voice was calm and clear: "Do you have something to look for him? I have only seen him twice. The blacksmith's whereabouts are uncertain. It is fate to meet him by chance. Looking for it deliberately is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack."

When Shen Ce heard the expected answer, he sighed in disappointment, and Shen Ce held up the silver ring in his hand to Selos: "I'm also doing it for the equipment bonus, this ring is polluted by demon energy, Therefore, the attribute has been greatly reduced, and if you meet Hatar's mentor, you will be able to restore this ring to its original state."

Selos glanced at the ring on Shen Ce's index finger, his eyes moved slightly: "So that's the case, anyway, we have to go to the Demon Race area, maybe the Demon Race people know how to restore it."

Shen Ce put his hand down, and his voice was a little tired: "I hope so, but this ring is a bit weird, not only can't be taken off after wearing it, but also I always feel that there is something wrong with my whole body the moment I put it on."

Silos lowered his eyes, hiding the sarcasm in his eyes: "Maybe it's just that you think too much, don't worry, the ring will always find a way to repair it."

Shen Ce was noncommittal, it was noon at this time, and the scorching sun dyed the green trees a few strands of gold, Shen Ce looked at those tall trees, and said slowly: "Then let's go find Hatar now, he should still be there Where the gods' guild is stationed."

The two then went to the god's guild residence. Shen Ce was still thinking about whether to ask Han Qishao which house Hatar lived in, but he didn't expect Cyrus to be more familiar with the road than him, so he directly led Shen Ce Went to Hattar's house.

As soon as Shen Cefu opened the door, he smelled a strong smell of wine. A short old man was sitting on the table, holding a white copper jug ​​in his right hand, pouring wine into his mouth, it seemed like drinking water Generally casual.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the old dwarf Hattar turned his face impatiently. His eyes were bleary, and there was a red cloud on his side cheeks. He looked a bit embarrassed, but his voice was extremely arrogant: "Who, didn't you see?" Is there a closed sign at the door, and I won’t accept orders today.”

"Hatar, long time no see." Cyrus spoke before Shen Ce, his voice was cold and erratic, like a cloud of mist that dispersed and gathered, or an unsolvable mystery.

The old dwarf's heart seemed to be lifted by something, his body shook violently, as if he was doing a huge psychological construction, and he turned his head slowly: "Big... Cyrus, why are you here?" The old dwarf was speaking halfway After a pause, he hurriedly threw the flagon after being excited, his eyes trembled obviously, and the drunken demeanor that was originally in a trance directly drifted away.

Shen Ce raised his head in astonishment. The old dwarf's soft and respectful voice really made him uncomfortable. If he was not mistaken, Hatar seemed to be afraid of Cyrus?how so?

The personality of the dwarves is the most stubborn and stubborn in "Across the Sky", and they have always been known for their arrogance. Shen Ce has also dealt with Hatar several times, and knows the other party's stubborn and stubborn personality, but Why did Hatar change drastically when he saw Cyrus?

Anyway, this is the first time Shen Ce has seen a high-level NPC blacksmith who is afraid of players.

Shen Ce couldn't come up with an answer, and his thinking immediately fell into a fog. He pursed his lips, and quickly recalled the bits and pieces since he met Cyrus. I can't find anything to explain the scene in front of me.

Cyrus glanced at Shen Ce who was in a state of astonishment, and he said lightly to Hatar: "Zero said he would give me a set of assassin equipment, and the forging diagram and materials have been found, and there is only one blacksmith missing, only you The most suitable."

It was only then that the old dwarf Hattar noticed Shen Ce, and he turned his gaze to the white-robed priest standing beside Cyrus, the old dwarf's voice was a little surprised: "He said he would give you equipment? This is too—" Hattar seemed to realize something, and quickly fell silent.

Shen Ce didn't understand why Hatar was so surprised, so he simply took out the equipment's forging diagram and various materials from the storage space.

The old dwarf Hatar took them all, and kept touching the lapis lazuli with his rough fingers. He praised: "This lapis lazuli is very pure, and it is really a rare treasure. I will forge it now."

Sailuosi glanced narrowly at Shen Ce: "Could it be a good gift from the beauty?"

If he didn't show up at that time, how would Shen Ce treat the female player who confessed his love?Although Cyrus knew in his heart that according to Shen Ce's personality, he must refuse, but thinking of the female priest daring to stretch out his hand to pull Shen Ce's sleeve, he still couldn't help feeling a little irritated.

Shen Ce was not in the mood to listen to Cyrus' jokes at all, he was full of doubts, because Hatar's strange attitude towards Cyrus confused him.Shen Ce's eyes kept switching between Cyrus and the old dwarf, but he couldn't figure out why.

And after the old dwarf finished sighing, he went straight to the iron furnace. Hatar slowly pulled the bellows, and threw all kinds of rare metals and precious gems into the furnace without any distress. His already flushed face was almost bleeding.

Shen Ce and Sailuosi stood watching from a distance. This is the second time for Shen Ce to see Hatar forged iron. To be honest, although Shen Ce chose a herb picker as his sub-professional, he really longs to be a blacksmith. It's a pity that the pastor's physical fitness does not meet the standards for being a blacksmith, so Shen Ce can only settle for the next best thing and become a herbalist.

The forging time this time was longer than Shen Ce imagined. Shen Ce looked at the old dwarf with a solemn look. It kept evaporating and popping up again and again, but Hatar continued to move his position dedicatedly, knocking back and forth on the materials on the anvil.

From observing Hatar's forging process, Shen Ce had to sigh that he was really not suitable to be a blacksmith.

After about two hours, Hattar finally finished his forging. After a while of dwarf language that Shen Ce couldn't understand, a black assassin suit flew out of the furnace, and the whole equipment burst into brilliance. , After a few seconds the light dimmed again.

The old dwarf Hattar took out a towel to wipe off the sweat and smoke from his face and hands. He took the set of assassin equipment and walked towards Shen Ce and Sailos who were standing far away. The equipment was handed to Silos, but under the signal of Silos' expression, he first showed the equipment to Shen Ce.

Cyrus turned his head to look at Shen Ce, and smiled slightly: "Shouldn't you look at the attributes of the equipment you want to give?"

Seeing that Hatar was so obedient to Cyrus, Shen Ce would even take his facial expressions to heart. Although he had the previous things as a foreshadowing, Shen Ce was still secretly startled. He took the assassin equipment silently, Immediately, a system prompt sounded in the ear.

"Ding—the suit of darkness, B-level equipment, can be upgraded, this equipment is only used by assassins, the martial skill attack power is increased by 200, the martial skill damage resistance is increased by 15%, the user's agility is increased by 20%, and the external perception is increased by 5. "

Such a superior attribute bonus must be at the pinnacle level in the current equipment market. Shen Ce nodded with satisfaction, and he handed the dark suit back to Cyrus: "The attributes are not bad." Forged with various high-level materials The equipment that comes out, and the smelter is still a master blacksmith with first-class skills, it is not surprising that this attribute can appear.

The two then left Hatar's private blacksmith shop. Before leaving, the old dwarf looked at Cyrus with a timid and awe-inspiring look, which made Shen Ce finally bear the pain after leaving the shop. He couldn't stop talking to Cyrus and asked, "Silos, why is Hatar so afraid of you?"

"Fear, do you have any?" Selos raised his eyebrows. He looked at the puzzled Shen Ce, and his voice was as distant as if separated by a river of mist and rain: "Probably because I told him about his mentor. .”

Shen Ce looked at Sailuosi's indifferent eyes, and intuitively thought that Sailuosi was perfunctory, but he didn't bother with this question anymore: "By the way, Sailuosi, you said in the Protoss Valley that you found the link to the Royal Family Library. Method, what exactly do you mean?"

"Did you know that the elf queen is going to the capital of the human kingdom?" Selos raised his head slightly, his gaze crossing the city wall of the Gods Guild to the end of the sky.
