Chapter 450: Rough Gemstone

The blood-red gate of hell is like a ferocious mouth opening in this gray world, spitting out filth in a steady stream and eroding the world.

Ten kilometers away, I was hiding in a secret place, peering at the huge gate to hell.

What the dwarf elder said is indeed true. There is more than one gate to hell. I can find one every dozens of kilometers. After wandering around this area for a few days, this is the third gate to hell I have discovered.

Already.

After conveying this news to the dwarves and confirming the great elder's guess, I accepted a new task - to investigate these hell gates, even if I just go in and take a look, to see if these hell gates are permanently solidified.

, or is temporarily controlled by some unknown reason. If it is the former, then don’t mention anything, just pack your things and prepare to move.

Therefore, this mission is of vital importance to the dwarves. My words may affect the future of more than 100,000 dwarves, so I have to proceed with caution.

After thinking about it again and again, I decided to find a Hell Gate to try, and the one in front of me was the smallest Hell Gate among the four I found.

The entrance to the Gate of Hell is smaller, and the level of danger inside is also lower. Although it is just an unfounded guess, it is better than just choosing one to get in without knowing.

After I was ready, I immediately transformed into a blood bear and spit out a blood bear energy cannon at the place where the Destruction Knights were concentrated, which I had already targeted. Hum, I'm going to hit you.

Then, before those monsters could react, I quickly rushed towards the gate of hell. To me now, ten kilometers is just a matter of seconds.

When I approached the Gate of Hell, just like when I was at the entrance of the Brave Trial Cave, the evil aura pouring out was so strong that it was frightening. I was used to this aura and took a big step forward without hesitation.

, half of the body has already entered the gate of hell.

As soon as I stepped in, I rolled around like a lazy donkey, jumped up and made a gesture to exit the gate of hell at any time. What I saw, just as I imagined, was a fiery red molten world, leading to the outside world.

The Gate of Hell is located on a huge lava rock, and monsters are coming one after another from all directions without interruption.

I saw a large group of hundreds of abyss demons rushing over with their fat bodies shaking. I lowered my head and roared, trying to send them back to their hometown.

Unexpectedly, this group of abyssal demons moved out of the way, walking in a hurry, as if they wanted to go around me. The huge contrast made me stunned for a moment, and I just watched them go around me, and then behaved like three good students.

Obediently, they lined up and dived into the gate of hell.

This...how did this happen? It's not like when the monsters were in riots in the depths of the Plains of Despair. How could these monsters actively avoid me? It's more surprising than a cat not eating fish.

I calmed down and thought that these monsters were probably in a hurry to leave this hellish place, and the aura of destruction on my blood bear was similar to the aura of hell, so they were not attacked. Other than that, I thought

No other reason.

But this is good, it saves me a little time. If I am trapped by thousands of monsters here, it will not be fun. When I first came in, I even planned to jump into the melting pot if I had to.

I'll hide in the ocean for a while.

Ignoring the monsters that passed by, I started to explore the surroundings. From time to time, three or two monsters would reborn near me, and then they would hurriedly form gangs and kill towards the gate of hell. Other adventurers like this would never do it in their lifetime.

The unseen wonders really opened my eyes.

I groped along the place with the strongest evil smell and searched for about ten minutes. I finally reached the end of the lava rock. In front of me, there was a ten-meter-wide lava channel, like a bridge, connecting the molten rock.

A few hundred meters away from the sea, a large lava island the size of more than ten football fields is connected together.

Looking from a distance, there seems to be something standing in the center of the magma island. It doesn't look like a statue or temple altar that you often see.

Walking along the lava path, along the way, lava columns in the lava sea on both sides erupted violently, just like small volcanoes erupting. Fortunately, I am in the blood bear state now, and these lava can't hurt me at all.

However, this sight cast an even more mysterious tone on the unknown building opposite, making me step more cautiously.

When I got close to the lava island, I had already seen clearly what it was. It was not a statue or a stone altar, but a furnace. It was similar to the one I had seen in Qiaxi, but it was much larger.

With the platform as the center, a huge magic circle formed by the red crystal fire of the core of the earth makes this huge furnace platform appear mysterious and extraordinary everywhere.

"Hoho~~"

Suddenly, an angry roar came from behind the furnace, and the largest abyss demon I had ever seen rushed out from behind the furnace with dozens of subordinates, roaring lowly at me, the uninvited guest,

After seeing my blood bear state, fear flashed across my eyes.

No matter how big it is, compared with my transformed form, which is more than ten meters tall at the moment, its size and strength are not on the same level at all.

I took a glance and found that the huge abyss demon in the lead was a mini-boss, and there were dozens of its followers behind it. I didn’t take it seriously. I pounced on them with fear in their eyes, and the battle was resolved in a moment.

.

The mini-boss Abyss Demon gave me a gold-level two-handed sword. As mentioned before, this two-handed sword is the second most powerful among ordinary sword weapons. The only one above it is Excellence.

It's just a sword, and it usually has to be exploded in Harrogath at least.

Rose of Despair, two-handed sword

One-handed damage: 18-30 (limited to barbarians)

Hand damage:38-63

Strength points required: 100

Required level: 50

Sword Level: Fast Attack Speed

+50% enhanced damage

+2% chance of tearing wounds

+8-15 fire damage

+10 strength

+10 energy

Resistance to lightning +21%

Recover durability 1 within 1 day

Holy shit, it’s superb!!

When I saw the damage done by this golden two-handed sword, I could hardly move my eyes away. The damage done by the two hands was almost half as high as that of my divine crystal sword, and it still left no one alive.

If I wasn't used to using two-handed swords, I would keep this golden two-handed sword for myself. And it requires 100 points of strength and level 50 to use it. It's a pity. Let's see which rich barbarian can buy it.

You can afford it.

In fact, for barbarians, this crystal sword, in addition to the most important super high attack power and rare attribute tear damage, is more precious with +10 energy. You must know the mana of barbarians. But it is better than my Xiaosha

The breasts are even poorer.

Damn! Look what metaphor I am using. This mouth deserves a slap.

After putting away the swords with both hands happily, I turned my attention to the furnace table in the center, carefully moved my steps, and came to the periphery of the Earth's Core Fire Magic Array with the furnace table as the center, and took a closer look.

, only to realize that this circular magic circle is very large, with a diameter of about 1,000 meters. As a result, I couldn't see what was placed on the tall furnace table, and I could only occasionally see a brilliant reflection flashing by.

There should be nothing wrong with this magic circle. I carefully raised my toes and was about to reach into the magic circle. I retracted it again, and a gold coin appeared in my hand. I thought for a moment. I changed it again and replaced it with a gold coin.

The silver coin was thrown in gently.

"Jingle Bell--"

The delicate silver coin flashed a silver light in the air, fell to the hard lava ground, rolled, and made a crisp impact sound. Other than that, there was no other phenomenon.

This magic circle seemed to have no attack power. It was quite safe. I felt happy and stepped in on tiptoes. After landing on the ground, I paused for a while. After confirming that there was really no problem, I stepped in with my whole body.

Don't blame me for being suspicious. The magic circles in this dark world are too complicated and weird, especially those ancient magic circles. Sometimes I encounter them and I don't even know what is going on. This method of mine is considered reckless. In other words, I don't know what happened.

Other mages who are proficient in magic may have to study it for ten and a half days to understand its general function before they dare to step in.

Carefully avoiding the fire from the core of the earth, I finally arrived in front of the furnace. When I took a look at the items placed on it, I couldn't move my eyes away immediately.

A beautiful oval-shaped gem the size of a head, without any trace of carving, lies quietly on the groove of the furnace table, exuding a fascinating and mysterious luster.

Looking at this crystal gem that exuded a mysterious luster, my mind immediately recalled a legendary mid-level item I had seen in the book.

Rough gemstone!

Yes, this is the rough gemstone, which is known as the mother body of all gemstones. As long as it is handed over to an outstanding blacksmith master, it can be broken down into several flawless gemstones, and there is even a certain chance of a perfect gemstone appearing.

However, this kind of rough stone has become extinct many years ago due to the crazy plundering of humans. Kane also attached the word "legend" to it in the book, which means that it is unlikely to appear in this world.

era.

Now, I am lucky enough to see him.

A flawless gem, or even a perfect gem. At this moment, my eyes looking at the rough gem seemed to have turned into the shape and light of the gem. Under the guidance of the upstart rich man Rogge Third, stingy and many other haloes, the devil's claws were

He reached towards the rough gemstone.

"Zizi——"

Ear?

Just as he was about to reach into the furnace table, his claws were blocked by something. His fingers seemed to have been electrocuted and were a little numb.

What's going on? After touching it again, I discovered that the entire furnace table seemed to be protected by a transparent energy shield, preventing outsiders from touching it.

Could it be that this protective cover is the true purpose of the Earth's Core Fire Magic Array under your feet?

Not giving up, I stretched out with greater strength to see if I could scratch the entire protective shield. It turned out that the protective shield was indestructible and tightly blocked my claws.

Angry, I'm really angry. Do you know how serious the consequences would be if you stopped a hungry wolf from attacking the food? Can you afford it?! While I'm not completely angry, just give in to me.

I raised my fist and punched the protective shield with an angry roar.

"Zizi——"

The strong repulsive force bounced back, and what followed was an electric current dozens of times stronger than the lightning strike in the sky of the City of God's Punishment. It passed from the energy shield. After a burst of white light, my whole body was completely black.

On the spot, he maintained his punching posture and blew out a mouthful of black smoke.

Phew, the consequences are indeed quite serious.

Close is not enough, let’s go far away. I took a few steps back and took out the exclusive equipment of all professions. I tried them all, the mage’s ice, fire and thunder magic, the assassin’s trap, the Amazon’s bow and arrow, the necromancer’s poison and bones.

Magic, as well as its own Druid elemental skills.

The energy shield unfortunately doesn’t move!

Let's just use the blood bear energy cannon. Looking at the empty mana, I was like a gambler who lost his eyes, running some crazy ideas in my mind, but I finally had a sense of clarity, which made me stop my actions.

If you use the blood bear energy cannon, regardless of whether you can blast open the energy shield, the lava island will be destroyed first.

There is nothing more uncomfortable than having a treasure clearly in front of you but unable to touch it. At this moment, I rolled on the ground with tears streaming down my face.

After a while, I calmed down again, drooling and staring at the rough gemstone over and over again. If it had a soul, it might have been raped to death by my gaze.

Then, he took out a blank notebook, spread it out, and used the drawing skills he learned from kindergarten to draw the entire Earth Core Fire Magic Array, preparing to take it back and let the Great Elder and others decipher it. This kind of thing can only be given to

Only professionals can figure out the specific function.

My precious stone, just wait, I will come back to pick you up.

I waved coolly, rolled up my letters, and quickly left from the gate of hell. After I went out, I naturally had to be entertained by monsters, but we are in a good mood today. If there is something urgent, I won’t talk to you guys.

Calculated.

After going back, I will report what I saw and heard to the Great Elder. Of course, out of some selfishness, I will only describe the rough gemstone as a mysterious gemstone. Even if he discovers it by then, I can still say that I

I don’t know about this thing.

After hearing my information, the great elder danced the dwarf dance with joy on the spot. His short body twisted around and his fat beard swung back and forth, which looked very funny.

"Why is the Great Elder so happy?"

I don't understand why this old dwarf looks so happy.

"Your Excellency Wu Fan, can't you see that the furnace table, the earth's core fire magic array and the central gem you mentioned have already confirmed one thing. Those gates to hell are not eternally reinforced, but rely on this

Several things are being maintained, so that we dwarves don’t have to migrate.”

It turns out that is the case, no wonder you are so happy. Whether the Gate of Hell is permanently reinforced or maintained by some factors is the basic premise for the dwarves to make a decision. If it is the former, then they can only migrate sadly. If it is the latter,

Then there is still a chance to fight back and protect the homeland where one has lived for generations.

"Have you carved the Earth's Core Fire Magic Array back? Very good, show it to me quickly." After being happy, the great elder couldn't wait to start deciphering the magic array.

"This Earth Core Fire Magic Array not only provides an energy shield to protect the central gem. Its greatest function is probably to extract the energy of the central gem and maintain the energy to open the gate of hell. Just thinking about it,

I can't wait to see how sophisticated this magic array is, and how it can create such miraculous functions."

He excitedly took the manuscript from my hand and unfolded it skillfully. At this moment, the great elder's face was filled with the kind of itch and enthusiasm he felt when seeing more advanced techniques in his own art.

It is precisely because of this passion that the dwarves are called the blacksmith clan. This is what humans lack, the persistence to focus on a certain thing, because humans have too many desires, and they have fallen into a state of indifference.

Great Elder, I thought silently in my heart.

"This...this is what you drew."

Exhibiting the note, the great elder's eyes suddenly widened and he glanced at me slightly. Although he had tried very hard to hide the contempt in his eyes, it was still obvious.

An excellent blacksmith master must be an excellent and rigorous design master. My crooked drawing is like handing over the kindergarten graffiti to the painter who founded the sect. So his disdainful look...

I can't get angry at all.

"It's okay, even though it's extremely bad, I can still tell..."

Hey, can't you whisper a little quieter? Can't you say it in your heart? At any rate, I have brought back the drawings for you. Facing this dwarf comrade who has a straightforward personality and always speaks every word, I sit cross-legged

He took a sip of tea and looked into the distance with tears in his eyes.

The great elder's soul seemed to have been completely sucked into this handbook, which was less than two feet long and wide. From noon until the sun went down, his body did not move at all, and he did not even blink his eyes. He kept staring at the drawing.

If he hadn't been looking at a living person like him in front of me, I would have thought that in front of me he was just an ingeniously crafted stone statue.

It wasn't until night fell, after I had finished chewing two pieces of dried meat and had several pots of tea in my belly, that he blinked and suddenly came back from his intoxicated world.

"How is it? Great Elder, do you have any clues?"

I put my hand on the ground in a very inelegant manner and patted my round belly full of tea and asked.

"Not yet. The person who created this magic circle is simply a genius among geniuses. It is impossible to crack it in a short time. Fortunately, this magic circle is closely related to the forging magic system that our blacksmith is proficient in. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to see it.

Understand, now I have only touched the threshold, and I even suspect that the person who created this magic circle is an outstanding blacksmith..."

Once the dwarf elder came back to his senses, his words were like a faucet that was turned on, gushing out in his ears. There were also some wonderful symbols that were similar to high numbers in physics, which were like someone's killer violin, seriously destroying people.

My hearing and facial nerves.

Automatic filtering function - turned on!

"Ahem, that means it will take a while to make progress?"

Seeing that this guy was talking about getting up, he seemed to be talking at night by candlelight, so I quickly interrupted and asked.

"Yes, I will call the other nine old guys here tomorrow to study together. It will be faster this way."

The topic was interrupted, and the great elder nodded with some disappointment. The other nine old guys he mentioned were naturally the other nine dwarf elders.

"Then what can I do?"

"It's up to Your Excellency Wu Fan to decide. Once the other nine guys arrive, the battle on the front line will inevitably be a little tight. If possible, it would be great if I could trouble you to help you a little. Also, this area

I have to trouble Your Excellency Wu Fan to find out more about the gate of hell..." The elder said with a smile while stroking his beard.

Hoho, haven't you made a lot of arrangements for me? Why don't you let me decide on my own?

Early the next morning, nine other elders from the dwarf clan rushed over. After getting to know each other, I was not interested in sitting in the room and watching how ten dwarves cracked the magic circle. No, not only

No interest, let alone no courage, how should I put it? Their research methods are quite popular...

"Old immortal, it's not your fault for being stupid. If you show it off, it's your fault. Don't show off the excrement in your head, so as not to mislead our thinking..."

There was a crash in the room, and a short winter melon broke out of the wall. It rolled on the ground a few times and suddenly bounced up. It rushed back with an angry beard and roared loudly.

"You old man is just a pile of shit. Stop spewing out shit and pollute the environment. Don't you know that it is because of your existence that the average IQ of our dwarves has been lowered straight down?"

"There was a crackling sound in the house.

"My land is right!!"

"My land is the one!!"

"watch out!!"

"Ah, where are you kicking, you bastard..."

"If you pull out my beard again, I'll be in trouble with you..."

Forget it, it was safer to go out for a walk alone. I tightened my cloak and turned around to leave, leaving only a melancholy and vicissitudes of life in this "peaceful" small village.

I rushed to the area where the Hell Gate appeared non-stop. I came to the first Hell Gate I found, observed the monsters outside, and then used the same trick to enter the Hell Gate again. With the last experience,

This time I was very familiar with it and found the furnace table quickly.

The person responsible for guarding the furnace table is a mini-boss-level strangler with a large group of doom casters. This type of mage killer poses no threat to me. He tortured the mini-boss to death just by stepping on it.

And this generous little boss actually exploded a green suit of equipment for me, which stunned me on the spot. This green suit was the same as the dark gold equipment. Even with my explosion rate, I could kill a demon king-level monster.

It may not explode. Could it be that when the mini-boss Strangler died, the negative sign in front of my character value in the hidden attributes suddenly disappeared for a moment?

Arctic Bound

Light buckle strap

Defense:56

Durability:14-14

Required level: 10

Cold resistance +40%

+50 defense

Arctic suit:

Arctic Horn (War Bow)

arctic fur (clothing)

Arctic Binding (Belt)

Arctic gloves (gloves)

Uh, what a high defense! Even the top metal buckle among ordinary belts only has 11 points of defense. This light buckle actually reaches an astonishing 56 points, which is higher than my first golden leather belt back then.

A is a full 20 points higher, which is great for beginners.

By the way, there was a piece of clothing in the Arctic suit at Duriel's before - Arctic fur, but I gave it to Willas and the others. When we get back and put this belt on, we finally

Now you can enjoy the bonus attributes of the suit.

I didn't even immediately confirm whether the gems in the furnace were rough gemstones, so I quickly took out Kane's book and started rummaging through it.

When two pieces of the Arctic suit are assembled, the Arctic fur and the Arctic binding will each add one attribute, and the set as a whole will also come with one attribute.

Arctic Fur increases character defense by +3 per level (i.e. increases defense by level multiplied by 3)

Arctic Binding increases explosion rate by +20%

The overall suit increases strength by 20

This is the power of the green suit. A single green suit may not be as good as gold equipment, but once two or more pieces are gathered together, its BT ability can be exerted. After a complete set of green equipment is gathered, every
