When they arrived at the restaurant, Zhao Hai found that although there was still one person in the restaurant, there were not as many people as there were yesterday. Moreover, there were a few young dwarves in the restaurant yesterday, but today, all the dwarves in the restaurant were old.
After Billy’s introduction, Zhao Hai found out that these old dwarves were the elders of the dwarven race. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but be a little slow and immediately greeted them.
The elders were also very polite to Zhao Hai. Today, Zhao Hai, Billy, Juno, and the elders sat at the same table. Laura sat at the same table with the older dwarven women.
The dwarves had a tradition of inviting their guests to dinner. If the guests had family members, they would have to send their family members to accompany them. Zhao Hai liked this rule very much.
When they sat down to eat, a few dwarves kept urging Zhao Hai to drink. Zhao Hai did not want to drink at first, but after drinking so early in the morning, he felt uncomfortable all day. However, the dwarves were too enthusiastic, so he was forced to drink a few glasses of wine.
Juno had been watching Zhao Hai interact with the dwarf elders. Although Zhao Hai had done the dwarf race a great favor, Zhao Hai’s expression did not change at all. He was still very respectful to the dwarf elders, as if nothing had happened.
This made Juno think even more highly of Zhao Hai. There were very few people on the continent like Zhao Hai now. The dwarfs were a foreign race in the eyes of the humans. Therefore, those who helped the dwarfs would try their best to get some benefits from them. Moreover, the humans looked down on the dwarfs. Therefore, if ordinary humans really did the dwarfs a favor, they would not be as calm as Zhao Hai.
After dinner, Zhao Hai didn’t follow Billy to the dwarves “forbidden area. Instead, he went back to his room and drank a cup of space water to clear his hangover.
Billy and Juno were sitting in the cave where Billy worked. A dwarf led Zhao Hai to the cave, and the two of them were chatting. When they saw Zhao Hai enter, they both stood up.
Zhao Hai quickly invited the two of them to take a seat before smiling bitterly, ” “To be honest, my alcohol tolerance is really limited. I drank too much just now, so I had to go back to my room and drink some hangover medicine.”
The Hangover medicine had long been available on the continent. It was specially prepared for some aristocrats. The aristocrats usually had a lot of social gatherings, so naturally, they had to drink. It was very uncomfortable to drink too much, so an Alchemist had made this hangover medicine. This thing was not a big deal on the continent.
Billy did not mind. He smiled and said, ” “It’s nothing. We dwarves are used to it. Hehe, Sir, let’s go to the forbidden area.”
“Alright, shall we go now?” Zhao Hai nodded.
Billy nodded and stood up. Juno stood up as well. It seemed like he wanted to follow them. Zhao Hai did not object. From Juno’s expression, it seemed like Billy had already told him everything. Zhao Hai did not think that there was anything wrong with Billy’s decision. Juno was a trustworthy person, and he was very clear about this matter. Even if you did not tell him, he would be able to find out from the clues. It would be better to tell him. He didn’t want to give Juno the impression that he didn’t trust him.
Billy led Zhao Hai and the other two out of the cave they lived in and into another cave with an underground river. They got on a boat and went into the iron Mountain.
The dwarf’s Iron Mountain was really big, but fortunately, the dwarf race was also very smart. After they found an underground river with a very large flow, they made use of it and divided it into an underground river network that could almost cover the entire dwarf’s Iron Mountain. It became an important long-distance transmission route for the entire dwarf race, so it was very convenient for them to travel.
The boat was very fast. After more than two hours, the boat stopped at a dock. The dock was very careful and not as busy as the other docks. There were no boats at all. After Billy got off the boat, he asked a dwarf to wait here before they walked out of the cave where the dock was.
The cave was very small. It was the smallest dwarf cave Zhao Hai had ever seen. It seemed like this was a forbidden area. Otherwise, the dwarves would not be so careful.
Zhao Hai was now very much in awe of these dwarves. With the map of Iron Mountain in his storage space, Zhao Hai could already feel how extraordinary the dwarves were.
The dwarves had been living in the dwarf’s Iron Mountain for many years. The entire Iron Mountain had become an underground world. The underground sewers were like a spider’s web, and all the dwarf Iron Mountains on the map were connected together. How big of a project would this take? But the dwarves had done it, which was really amazing.
When the three of them came out of the cave, they saw a small canyon outside the cave. However, the entrance of the cave was surrounded by a wooden fence made by the dwarves. It seemed that they didn’t want people to enter the canyon.
Zhao Hai looked into the canyon. The canyon was not big. Fang Yuan was only about a thousand square meters. In the middle of the canyon, there was a small pool of about ten square meters. However, the water in the pool was blood red. There were no plants growing in the canyon, and the stones in the canyon seemed to have been dyed red by the water.
Both Zhao Hai and Juno could feel an extremely powerful pressure from the pool and the entire Valley. Zhao Hai felt that this pressure was even stronger than when he faced the iron hammer.
Billy stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at it. He sighed. &Quot; “We don’t know when this cave started, but it was there when we dwarves dug it out. The reason why we listed this place as a forbidden area was because in this Valley, apart from the pool, even those red stones would cause people to die from anger if they touched them. We’ve also studied what happened here, but in the end, we didn’t find anything.”
After that, Billy turned to Zhao Hai and said, ” “Sir, it’s up to you now. We’ve already excavated all the hills near this Valley. There is an iron mine here that has a very high output. It’s enough for us dwarves to use for a hundred years. However, because of the existence of this Valley, we don’t dare to mine here. Sigh.”
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment. He didn’t think that the blood of the God-grade powerhouse would have such power. Even the stone couldn’t be touched. Zhao Hai said,”Alright, alright, I’m done.”
Zhao Hai opened the wooden gate and walked into the valley. Billy followed him and said, ” &Quot; Sir, these stones are fine as long as you don’t touch them with your hands, but you can’t touch the water. Even if you wear gloves and touch the water, you will explode and die. Please be careful. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded. He stood at the valley and looked around. The place he was standing at now was like a dividing line. One more step forward and he would see the red stones. However, there were none here.
Zhao Hai took a deep breath. With a thought, the soil and rocks of the valley in front of him were all moved into the space. It was as if someone had used a huge womb to dig the soil and rocks away. It dug a meter deep.
This was because the valley was almost entirely made up of iron ore. Otherwise, they would have dug even deeper. Zhao Hai looked at the ground that had been dug out and saw that there were no longer any red stones. He nodded in satisfaction.
Billy and Juno, on the other hand, looked at Zhao Hai in shock. They had never thought that Zhao Hai would have such skills. Both of them had seen the world, and they immediately thought of one possibility-spatial special techniques!
The special techniques on the continent were strange, but there was one kind of special technique that was the most difficult to figure out. It was the spatial special technique, not only because this kind of special technique rarely appeared, but also because this kind of special technique was really too strange and varied, so there was no way to study it at all.
On par with the spatial special technique was probably spatial magic. Although spatial magic had a very systematic learning method, there were very few people with spatial magic talent. So on the continent, spatial magic and spatial special techniques were both very mysterious.
Zhao Hai’s method was obviously a spatial special technique, because before using spatial magic, one had to chant an incantation. Even a grade-8 spatial magician would have to chant an incantation before using it.
Billy and Juno looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. Zhao Hai, on the other hand, did not pay any attention to the two of them. In fact, he had the ability to store the entire Valley into his space, but in order to not expose himself, he had only built up the distance of a few steps in front of him.
After that, Zhao Hai took a few more steps forward. With a wave of his hand, he collected another piece of land and mountain wall. Then, he continued to move forward and collect ...
After more than a dozen times, Zhao Hai finally arrived at the small pool. He looked into the pool and found that it was neither big nor deep. However, it gave off an inexplicable pressure. Zhao Hai took a deep breath and waved his hand. A spatial crack appeared and sucked the pool and everything inside into it. Zhao Hai had specifically targeted the pool this time. The soil in the pool was dug more than two meters deep. Even so, Zhao Hai still found a red ore in the thick layer of ore under the pool. He used his spatial pocket to dig deeper, and this time, he dug one meter deeper. Only then did the red stone disappear.
Just like before, Zhao Hai kept the ground and the walls of the valley into his Origin space. The valley was not small, and with the walls, Zhao Hai had a lot of things to collect. It took him more than two hours to clean up the entire Valley. There was no longer a single red Rock.
