"What? Don’t even think about it!" Elder Grenum’s eyes widened as he shouted loudly.
"Humbert, you need to understand, I am rely the elder representing the Fla Beard Clan, not the king!"
Raine could understand Elder Grenum’s words.
Because on their way to the Deep Furnace Hall, Humbert had clarified the difficulty of the issue with him: the Mountain Dwarf Kingdom is ford by three dwarf clans—Fla Beard, Stone Fist, and Brute Hamr.
Regarding the use of the ancient fla forge, it doesn’t need to alarm King Brute Hamr the Second, but it must pass the review of the Elder Council.
The elder Grenum he ca to et this ti is not only a mber of the Elder Council but also happens to be a senior mber of the Fla Beard Clan.
Raine also understood Humbert’s strategy—first convince the elder of his own clan, and then have their elder apply for the Elder Council’s consent.
"Moreover, although your disciple is quite capable, being so young, how could he possibly have any weapons or equipnt that need the ancient fla forge?" Elder Grenum looked at the two sowhat skeptically.
"Yes! There definitely is!"
At this mont, Humbert signaled Raine to present the epic level warhamr Counterattacker to Elder Grenum.
At first, Elder Grenum didn’t pay much attention when he took the warhamr, but in the next mont, as Raine dispelled the magic, his eyes widened in shock, exclaiming:
"What! This is the imperial double hamrs of the Gray Dwarves, it’s the Counterattacker!!"
As expected of a master blacksmith, Raine didn’t expect Elder Grenum to recognize the origin of the warhamr at a glance.
"Yes, Elder Grenum."
"Tell , how did you acquire this warhamr? If I’m not mistaken, this warhamr should be in the hands of the Gray Dwarves’ Dark Furnace Clan." Although it ca from the ancient Gray Dwarves, traitors in the eyes of the dwarves, Elder Grenum examined it very seriously.
To be able to set aside the prejudice against traitors and seriously analyze the crafting techniques, this scene made Raine involuntarily respect Elder Grenum.
It’s important to know that this level of enmity can greatly affect judgnt.
"Two months ago, I..." Raine covered up the monster skill as a magic scroll and began to narrate.
After hearing Raine’s story, Elder Grenum’s gaze toward Raine softened noticeably, with more appreciation in his eyes.
He pondered for a mont and said, "Young man, it’s not intentional difficulty, but perhaps you all aren’t aware that each ti the fla forge is activated, it consus the fiery essence within."
"Except for the Fire Giant, other races must find a way to enter the plane of fire elents to collect the fiery essence in order to maintain the normal operation of the fla forge."
"This is not an easy task!"
"In the entire Mountain Dwarf Kingdom, only a handful have the strength to accomplish this, which is why the kingdom has strictly limited the activation count."
Raine’s face showed sudden realization.
"Consider, if an exception is made for you this ti, then what about the other elders?"
Upon hearing this, though knowing hope was slim, Humbert still strived for a solution: "Elder Grenum, but this warhamr is extrely important to Raine, is there another way?"
"Unless you or Raine have made a significant contribution to the Mountain Dwarf Kingdom. Otherwise, the Elder Council will surely veto it, as this allowance cannot be made." Elder Grenum stroked his graying beard, pondering for a mont before answering.
Significant contribution?
Upon hearing this news, Raine felt a sense of delight; at least there was a glimr of hope, but at the sa ti, he fell into contemplation.
But what does a significant contribution an?
Would donating rare minerals count?
If it counts, he still had over twenty thousand gold, which should be enough to purchase a significant amount of rare tals.
Or does he need to complete so special tasks designated by the Mountain Dwarf Kingdom?
Just as Raine intended to ask, suddenly, an impressive-looking dwarf elder, clad in heavy plate armor and carrying a two-handed battle axe, approached quickly, escorted by two elite dwarf guards.
"Farrin, what brings you here today?" Elder Grenum looked at the newcor with so surprise.
"Grenum, the minions of the Azure Dragon Group of Isorense, those bastards have attacked the Iron Ring Excavation Site, and I need you to urgently forge so armor-piercing arrows!" The dwarf elder nad Farrin muttered loudly.
"Guests?" Farrin then noticed Raine’s presence.
"This is my disciple, Elder Farrin, good day!" Humbert imdiately saluted.
"Ah, it’s Humbert!" Farrin looked at Humbert, smiled, and nodded slightly.
"Please wait for a mont, Farrin, let’s discuss inside." Elder Grenum said to Raine and Humbert, then promptly invited Farrin inside.
And on the side, Raine raised an eyebrow, keenly grasping the information.
The minions of the Azure Dragon Group of Isorense?
Raine imdiately looked towards his ntor Humbert, a look of inquiry on his face.
"ntor, the minions of the Azure Dragon Group of Isorense?"
"Yes, the Azure Dragon Group of Isorense recently migrated from the northeast to near the Pillar of Thunder." Humbert naturally understood Raine’s aning, and whispered softly.
"Although they reached a peaceful coexistence agreent with the kingdom after migrating here, constant friction has occurred between our subordinate groups once a small sapphire mine was discovered near the Pillar of Thunder."
