It was said that Moradin used precious stones and gold to make the ancestors of the Dwarves, and taught them his most prized forging techniques. Therefore, the Dwarves viewed forging as their own life, and spent most of their time forging various items. This persistence, coupled with their natural craftsmanship, made the products of the Dwarves the best-selling products in the entire continent. It was even said that some deities would have dwarven craftsmen forge divine artifacts for them.

Werther came to the edge of the Tigris Mountains and first ordered the Silver Dragon to transform into a small lizard, lying on his shoulders. Then he also changed into a commoner attire, feeling the heat that gushed out from the entire mountain, sighing, "As expected of a race that lives by forging. It seems that even the place they choose to live in is well-chosen." His first reason for coming here was to repair the damaged Coiling Dragon Staff and Heaven Swallowing Armor, and secondly, to learn from the dwarves' forging experience so that he could create his own new flying sword.

He casually walked into the mountain range. Dwarves were very xenophobic. Although they would not stay in the Elven Forest and rarely interact with the outside world, the Dwarves still remained extremely wary of strangers. On the way, Werther met with a few representatives of dwarves' caravans who came to purchase weapons. They had done business with dwarves for decades, and some of them had even dealt with these dwarves from the ancestors. Their accumulated reputation was recognized by the dwarves over the years, but even so, they were still unable to lead too many people into the Tigris Mountain Range.

As Werther walked along, he finally reached a small tribe of dwarves. The sound of striking iron became louder in his ears, and thick and long columns of smoke rose from each building made of stone. When Werther saw the dwarves for the first time, he looked at them with curiosity. These people were indeed very short, especially the children, who were almost as tall as his calves. All of them squatted there as if they were playing with rocks.

Who are you?" someone asked him. What are you doing here? " Werther lowered his head and saw a short man looking at him with a serious expression. He was a very tall and sturdy dwarf with well-developed muscles. He was also carrying an oversized hammer on his back. He had a long beard on his face and his hair was braided in little strands. When the children saw him, they all put down the toys in their hands and happily ran over. When they saw Werther, he examined him with a curious gaze.

"I'm just an ordinary human adventurer. The main reason I'm here is to ask the dwarven master to repair two weapons for me. Also, if possible, I'd like to learn some forging techniques from him." The dwarves were hard to tell by their appearance. They had a large garlic nose, dark skin, and were almost all dressed up. Therefore, Werther didn't dare to determine this dwarf's identity and age, and could only speak politely.

The dwarf snorted and said, "Do you know how many adventurers on the continent want us to help them with repairing and forging weapons? Also, you actually want to ask us to teach you how to forge? We dwarves will not pass on to you deceitful humans the skills that Moradin taught us! " Werther forced a smile. Finally, he got to experience the exclusive attitude of the dwarves. Accompanying him with a smile, she asked, "May I know the name of the master?" The dwarf said haughtily, "My name is Tie Chui!" Werther almost broke into laughter, which was indeed worthy of a name. He smiled and said, "Master Tie Chui, my two weapons were made for me by another human master, but they were damaged by me during the battle. I have no confidence in finding that master, so I can only turn to you guys for help. Please help me look at it before coming to a conclusion. " He took out the Coiling Dragon Staff and Heaven Swallowing Armor and handed them over to Tie Chui.

Tie Chui's nose was almost pointing to the sky as he snorted, "Master? What masters do you humans have? "Only the Dwarf Tribe is a true race of blacksmiths. Only then will we be able to forge the best weapons ?" Casually taking the two weapons, he only took a glance at them before his eyes suddenly turned round and his mouth agape, "This, this technique, oh my god!" He let out a surprised cry.

As soon as he shouted, the dwarves in the nearby houses all came out, thinking that something had happened. Werther looked at the huge hammer in their hands with a wry smile, not knowing what to say. One of the short guy with a strong body saw Tie Chui and jokingly scolded him, "I was wondering who it was, but it turns out to be you little bastard Tie Chui! What the heck are you screaming for! It almost made me break a pot of freshly brewed molten steel! " Then, he suddenly saw the two weapons in Tie Chui's hands from the corner of his eyes. His breathing became heavier, and he grabbed the Heaven-Devouring Armor and the coiling dragon rod, carefully stroking and sizing them up, muttering: "Such a perfect forging technique, and such a magic formation's drawing method! Oh, my God! This was definitely the work of a master! Dammit, who was it!? To think that such a work of art would be destroyed! Damn it! "

The other dwarves gathered around and pointed at the two weapons. It was undeniable that although Carton was a stingy man and a little nervous, he was indeed worthy of being known as the only holy alchemist in the world. His forging skills were not inferior to these proud dwarves. However, Werther was depressed. From the time he had taken out his weapon until now, no one had cared about him, as if he didn't exist.

After coughing for a bit, Werther asked, "About that, can you guys help me fix it?" Only then did the dwarves realize that there was still one more owner of the weapon. This time, it was the dwarves who spoke, "Hello, human expert. My name is Iron Cauldron, I'm Tie Chui's uncle. Are these weapons yours? Which master forged it? " Iron Cauldron's attitude was a hundred times better than that of his nephew. Perhaps it was these two weapons that shocked him, and even his attitude towards Werther became friendly.

Werther smiled. "I asked the only human saint alchemist to forge these two weapons for me." "It's a pity that I've always relied too heavily on them. Furthermore, my opponents are all extremely powerful individuals. As a result, a Saint level weapon has been reduced to such a state." Iron Cauldron then came to a realization. "It turned out to be Master Calton's work! I have often heard my Great Elder talk about the achievements of the Forging Masters on the continent, and I have always held him in high esteem. However, his craftsmanship doesn't seem to surpass his teacher's. An old man who was previously the president of the Magic Society, the old man created a magic forging technique that even us dwarves are ashamed of! "

This Dwarf did not discriminate against other races, especially when it came to forging techniques. His broadmindedness was admirable, but he was a little off the mark and did not answer Werther's question even after talking for a long time. Iron Furnace continued: "However, these two weapons are excellent, at least I am unable to create them myself. Just look at the way this material is evenly distributed, and the technique of this imitating magic array, it is really amazing! That's right, this weapon has already reached the Saint level. Ordinary attacks are unable to cause any damage, yet it was beaten to such a state by your enemy, while you yourself aren't too seriously injured. I presume your esteemed self is also very strong? "

Werther had to admire his eyes, but he still changed the subject and had to repeat himself. "Excuse me, can you help me repair these two weapons?" Iron Furnace pondered for a moment and said, "If these two weapons are not repaired, it would be a pity to let them be damaged. However, my cooking skills have yet to reach that level. How about this, I will take you to see our Dwarf Great Elder. Since Grandmaster Karlton is willing to forge a weapon for you, it means that you have a good personality. I think that Great Elder is also very willing to see you. "

It took him great effort to reach his goal for this trip. Werther was very happy and hurriedly agreed. He turned to Tie Chui and said, "Okay Tie Chui, you stay here. Recently, the situation has been very chaotic, the elders said that us dwarves might face a crisis, you must be vigilant, if anything happens, go and report it immediately! Do you understand? " The young Dwarf Tie Chui reluctantly nodded.

In particular, the Holy See and the Kaiser Empire, such a very ambitious group, would definitely think of ways to rope this race into their ranks. If they were unable to get their hands on the race, they would naturally use a trick to eliminate this race, so as to avoid hindering their own hegemony. However, the Dwarves had not been exterminated since ancient times, so it was possible to see the tenacious vitality of this race.

Iron Furnace said to Werther, "Human expert, please follow me." He brought Werther all the way to the mountain. The Tigris Mountains was huge, with countless peaks. If one did not have someone familiar leading the way, it was very easy to lose one's way in the vast mountains. The iron furnace took Werther for a long time, walking until it was dark before they arrived in front of a valley. Iron Cauldron proudly said to Werther, "The next scene I see will definitely scare you. Please prepare your heart." Werther nodded and followed him into the valley. Seeing the shocking scene in front of his eyes, even though Werther was mentally prepared for it, he was still greatly shocked!
