Using mithril to paint a magic circle on a mage's robe can improve the efficiency of meditation and increase the speed of mana recovery. Mithril can even be used to enchant equipment and draw magic scrolls of the forbidden level...
A small piece of mithril can increase the quality of a weapon several times, so this precious magic metal has always been a must for casting high-level weapons and advanced magic equipment.
This is an extremely precious and versatile magical metal, even a small piece can attract the attention of countless people.
But now, Laurent actually said that he has a chance to get a complete Mithril vein? ?
Doesn't he know the preciousness of Mithril veins?
Is this guy insanely scared by the undead or has his brain eaten by demons?
Reed almost stretched out his hand to see if Laurent's forehead felt warm.
This is too outrageous.
A complete mithril vein can even cause two countries to launch a huge war for it.
Chapter 217 The irresistible temptation makes waves again (big chapter)
Hearing Laurent's words, not only Li De, but even Betty, a Valkyrie who has the blood of the northern royal family, became very interested.
Stretch out two fingers and gently wipe the bright white sword in your hand.Touching the giant sword that originally belonged to Grote.
The edge of the blade is extremely cold, and the sharp blade can pierce the scales of the dragon.
This sword cut off several tons of armor on the Cyclops, the Cyclops, and the giant sword that caused Corso's severe damage had an extraordinary origin. It was given to them by the former royal family of the Northland because of the outstanding military exploits of Grote's ancestors.
Betty knew that the reason why this huge sword was so sharp was not only because of the countless times of forging by the master dwarf blacksmith, but also because a piece of mithril the size of a fist was added to it during the forging.
This kind of precious metal that can improve the performance of weapons by several levels has always been the treasure of the northern royal family.
No one knows the importance of Mithril better than her.
"Are you sure it's a mine of mithril? What qualifications does a small businessman have to know the news that can cause two countries to start a war?"
Betty Anne couldn't help asking questions directly.
The voice is lazy and mature, the standard royal sister style.
Laurent glanced at Li De, and after seeing the other party motioning for him to answer, Laurent respectfully bowed deeply to the lady who was said to be a 15th-level northern warrior.
To treat the strong, one must maintain enough respect.
"Master Betty, I did not discover the Mithril veins, but the dwarves"
dwarf?
Li De raised his brows, why is there something about dwarves here?
Dwarves have a good reputation in Glory. As natural weapon smiths, the weapons produced by dwarves have always been synonymous with high-quality goods.
"Tell me in detail", Li De also became interested at this time, dwarves, mithril veins, the combination of these two words looks much more reliable than Laurent, a businessman.
If it was the mithril veins discovered by the dwarves, then the persuasiveness would obviously rise by more than one level.
This group of dwarves who are crazy about mining, let alone dig out mithril veins.Even digging out magma, digging to the dragon's lair, and even digging through the world to other planes, Li De dared to believe it.
"Yes," Laurent said in a grateful tone, "Master Li De, do you still remember the scene when we met for the first time outside Green City in October last year?"
Li De nodded. At that time, the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce had just returned from the border, and the goods were robbed by the orcs.
He also returned to Green City for the first time from the blood castle that had not yet been renamed the City of Daybreak.
It was precisely because of that chance encounter with Li De that he bought the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.
"That's how things started," Laurent then began to tell in detail, and the process of this incident is also very story-telling.
More than half a year ago, when Laurent was bought by Li De before going bankrupt, he used all his wealth and even borrowed two hundred gold pukes from the Green City Chamber of Commerce to buy and sell Mithril mines at the border.
The one who sold the mithril mine was a dwarf living on the border, and Laurent also got the news by chance at that time.
Originally, he only planned to try his luck, but he did not expect that he actually bought mithril ore from the dwarves... Although the quality of this batch of ore is very low, the mithril that can be smelted is probably very little, but it is still possible. Enough for him to make a fortune.
However, when he was about to return to Green City full of joy with the Mithril ore, he was plundered by orcs, and all the goods were robbed.
What happened afterwards was consistent with Li De's memory. He was accepted by Li De because of his bankruptcy, and he became a member of the Scarlet Mage Tower and started the road to rise again.
But if that's all it is, Laurent won't get the news now.
With the development and growth of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce, he has always been obsessed with the extremely precious mithril ore that can bring a lot of profits.
He even wanted to get Li De's reuse by regaining the mithril ore later.
So Laurent kept sending people to look for news about the dwarves on the border, but because of the orc invasion, the contact point established by the dwarves had already disappeared, but this plan was shelved.
But until a month and a half ago, things changed again.
With the rapid growth of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce and its increasing influence, coupled with the fact that there has been trade with the border, Laurent's people contacted the dwarves again.
But what disappointed him was that the dwarves temporarily announced that they would not sell mithril ore. Although disappointed, Laurent still established a trading relationship with the dwarf tribe, hoping to buy precious mithril ore again one day.
Originally, he had little hope for this. After all, the dwarves are the best craftsmen in the world. It is impossible for them to sell such precious ore in large quantities. But the news that excited him came. Just three days ago, the dwarves Suddenly he came to the door and asked him for help.
Laurent was extremely curious about this, and only found out the reason after detailed questioning.
It turns out that the habitat of the dwarf tribe is not in the land of the Nolan Empire, but in the barren wasteland of the orcs, in the distant mountains under the jurisdiction of the orcs.
The distant mountains are very huge, spanning the Norlan Empire and the Orc Empire. There are also long mountains on the side of the barren wasteland. The dwarf tribe is hidden in this endless mountain range.
Due to the lack of food and various living materials, dwarves often use forged weapons and ores to trade with humans on the border in exchange for the materials they need.
No matter how carefully the secret is hidden, it may be discovered one day, let alone a large-scale transaction.
After trading with the outside world for a long time, the dwarf's vigilance dropped, and he was inadvertently discovered by a powerful orc tribe near the dwarf habitat.
There is no doubt that a war between the races has begun.
Orcs treat dwarves no differently than humans, and regard them as enemies.
Although the dwarves are also a race with strong fighting power, their number is too small. Under the attack of the over ten thousand orc army, the entire dwarf tribe only survived for three days before completely falling.
The dwarven hordes fell captive to the orcs.
And the dwarf who escaped found Laurent and wanted to make a deal with him. As long as he could rescue his people, he was willing to give a mithril vein that the dwarf tribe had just discovered and had not yet mined as a reward.
After listening to Laurent's words, Li De had a very strange expression.
Why does this matter sound a bit out of line?
Isn't the story in the bard's population nothing more than that?
"Laurent, how can you be sure that the dwarf's words are true?
And you are just the steward of Jinmai Chamber of Commerce, why did the other party ask you for help?Why should I ask you to help?
Are you capable of dealing with an army of tens of thousands of orcs?And it's still in the barren wasteland.
You don't know whose territory the barren wasteland belongs to, do you?
If you want to face an army of tens of thousands of orcs on the barren wasteland, even Green City has to think twice. "
Wei Na, who was behind Li De, spoke calmly, although a complete mithril vein made her very excited.
As a powerful person in the Scarlet Mage Tower, the information she came into contact with during this period of time naturally let her know the preciousness of Mithril.
But the risk here is too great, a tribe of orcs with tens of thousands of troops.
Even with the entire Scarlet Mage Tower, it is impossible to face such a powerful enemy.
Laurent smiled wryly, "Miss Vena, naturally the dwarves won't ask me for help.
The reward proposed by the dwarf is for Lord Li De," he said with some admiration in his eyes, "Master Li De now has a lot of influence on the border.
Bards are singing his legend, merchants are talking about his legend, mages are praising his talent..."
Hearing this statement, Wei Na's mood improved a lot in an instant, and she secretly glanced at the handsome side face, feeling satisfied.
"The dwarf asked me to ask you for help. The dwarf said that only the Scarlet Mage Tower can save them..."
A little thought flashed in Li De's eyes.
"What if we don't say yes?"
Laurent shook his head, "They didn't say it, but I think they should go to other forces."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." The corner of Li De's mouth hung in a meaningful arc, "Although these dwarves are in a desperate situation, their wisdom is not low.
Laurent, never underestimate a group of intelligent beings. "
"Believe me, we are the only target of the dwarves in Green City."
Hearing this, the three people in the room were a little puzzled and looked at him curiously.
Li De's tone became a little serious, "I come from a small town on the border..."
This made Betty, who knew Li De's real identity, pouted slightly, but she didn't open her mouth to refute.
"The Kachar family was destroyed because of the orcs. I was forced to live in Green City. Although the Scarlet Mage Tower was built in Green City, the hatred with the orcs cannot be reconciled.
If there is a generous reward as bait, plus attacking the orcs, the dwarves must believe that I will not be stingy with my strength.
In addition to this, there is another very important point..."
"What's the matter?" Wei Na asked curiously, playing the role of answering the question very well.
Li De smiled slightly, "Mr. Spark"
"Master Spark?"
Laurent was a little puzzled, "What does this matter have to do with Lord Spark? What the dwarves need is your help."
Li De shook his head, "Laurent, your business thinking is indeed good, but in this respect, you are far behind."
Laurent was a little ashamed, "Lord Li De, I'm sorry"
"Actually, the dwarves should be attacking the teacher behind me this time, and Teacher Spark should be their main target," Li De said with deep eyes.
"Even if all the power from the Scarlet Mage Tower is sent out, it is impossible to deal with the orc army of tens of thousands. I believe the dwarves are well aware of this.
But it doesn't matter if I can't, someone can, my teacher Spark.
I think this mithril vein is not for me, but for the teacher's reward.
The teacher is not only the owner of the White Tower, but also the vice president of the Green City Mage Association. After working in Green City for so many years, if he is determined, he can mobilize even 5 orcs, let alone [-] orcs. Enough power to wipe out. "
Li De was a little bit emotional, Spark's accumulation over the years was no joke, otherwise the Scarlet Mage Tower would not have grown so smoothly to such an extent without being peeped by outsiders.
"So, the dwarves wanted to use you to pass this news to Lord Spark from the beginning? But why didn't they go directly to Lord Spark?" Wei Na continued to ask Reed and glanced at her little maid appreciatively. It was time to pick up the conversation, and it was indeed someone close to him who had a tacit understanding.
"Because, why?
What qualifications does an ordinary dwarf have to meet the vice president of the Green City Mage Association, the Lord of the White Tower, and a powerful archmage? ?
What's more, even if they saw it, what could the dwarves do to win the other party's trust?
Would the teacher trust a dwarf who appeared out of nowhere?
Will he deal with an army of tens of thousands of orcs for this uncertain mithril vein?
But if the news came from me, the gold content would be different.
After all, I am also a disciple of the teacher. "
Li De paused angrily, with a flash of emotion in his eyes, "And even if the teacher doesn't want to do it in the end, it won't do any harm to the dwarf, because the dwarf can go on looking for other forces in the name of the teacher.
Archmage Spark was very moved by this, but in the end he gave up due to other considerations. This matter was certified by Archmage Spark... With these names, do you think you will have a sense of power to speak against dwarves? interest? "
Li De shrugged and finally came to a conclusion.
"So the dwarf's message to you is just for you to pass it on to me, and the message you want to pass it on to me is just for me to pass it on to the teacher.
Even passing it on to the teacher is not his ultimate goal, he may need the name of Spark to negotiate with other forces."
After listening to Li De's words, not only Laurent and Wei Na, but even Betty, the northern royal family, opened their mouths slightly and looked at Li De with surprise.
At this moment, the Valkyrie of the Northland suddenly felt that these human beings are so complicated...the routine is so deep, and she really wants to go home.
"Well, is it true that the dwarves' information is fake? Or they have no image of cooperating with us?" Laurent looked at Li De with a full face of admiration, why is there such a big difference between human beings?
Li De shook his head, "No, the news is probably true, and the dwarves' intention to cooperate with us is also very strong."
Betty was completely dumbfounded at this moment, and she found that she didn't seem to understand Li De's words very well.
"Then why do you question them..."
