Chapter 483 Asking for help
The words are divided into two parts.
Peter and others received the news from Reina, and before going to meet her, they first searched for the Freeman family's store in the business district according to their original plan.
The process of finding a store is not difficult.
Because there are only nine surnames in total that can be called a big family in the stone castle and are qualified to live on the second floor.
The shops they open on the third floor are all in the best locations, with the most luxurious decoration and the largest area.
Quite conspicuous.
The overall decoration style of the Freeman family's store is based on ice blue, which makes it unique in the hot stone castle.
The rock walls, floor and ceiling of the cave shop have been polished smooth, and beautiful and bright fluorite lamps are hung from the ceiling, making them brightly lit.
"Fluorite" is a special mineral that is buried deep in the mountains and has just been excavated. Unprocessed fluorite looks almost the same as ordinary stone.
Putting it into a furnace for high-temperature smelting will not melt it, but will make it emit a bright white light that will last longer and longer.
This process is similar to energy injection.
But what infuses fluorite is flame and high temperature.
It magically converts it into bright, stable white light.
A high-temperature smelting lasting about 7 days can maintain the sufficient luminous effect of fluorite for about 30 days. During the next 30 days, the luminous effect will gradually decrease until it returns to the appearance of stone.
After being smelted a dozen times, fluorite will completely lose its luminous effect and become an ordinary stone.
Because the output of fluorite is not high and it is still a consumable, this item falls into the category of "luxury goods" in Stone Castle.
The ordinary dwarves who usually live on the fourth floor cannot use it.
They have money, but that is compared to the humans outside the Kingdom of Leyak. If you really want to compare them inside the stone castle, it is lagging behind the average.
Only dwarves who are truly wealthy and have sufficient financial support can afford fluorite lamps that require frequent maintenance and replacement.
Walking into the store, I felt the temperature drop immediately, which was as refreshing as drinking a large glass of icy cold drink on a hot summer day.
Anyway, Brandon moaned in pleasure.
"Ah! So cool!"
"These dwarves called Freeman are really begging for food from a golden bowl. The cooling effect of the equipment they forged is so powerful that they might as well switch to selling refrigeration services in Stone Castle. I bet they will sell out!"
Pat's head was filled with dark clues.
"Is it possible that the temperature that is too hot for us is actually just right for dwarves?"
"They may not need refrigeration at all."
The dwarves with the surname "Freeman" have unique weapons and equipment created by the cold spirit craftsmanship they are good at.
The ice blue gradient color system has sharp edges and beautiful streamlined structures like solid ice.
Under the bright light of the fluorite lamp, it shines beautifully.
A masterpiece of strength and beauty.
A very simple truth:
Those powerful and top-notch things are most likely beautiful and even spectacular.
Because when the strength reaches a certain level and starts to encounter bottlenecks, everyone will naturally start to think about how to make it better-looking and more eye-catching.
The Freemen dwarves are clearly in this stage.
They are at the pinnacle of cold casting technology, and they can devote a lot of their energy to optimizing the appearance.
Brandon fell in love with the complete heavy armor suit called "Frost Devouring Armor" displayed in the store almost at first sight!
Follow the instructions above.
This set of heavy armor can easily block attacks from monsters below level 3.
At most, it will leave some scratches on it, completely unable to break through the defense!
When he saw the price, Brandon became honest.
298 gold coins!
Heavy armor is still heavy armor.
Just the large amount of expensive metals and monster materials used in it makes its cost high.
"No wonder the dwarves are rich! They spend so much money on food, it's like mistaking money for money."
Brandon sighed. "You can earn nearly 300 gold coins by selling a set of heavy armor. How can they make money? They are clearly robbing money!"
Gale laughed out loud when he heard this: "Hey! Nonsense!"
"Robbing money can't come as fast as this. What if you're not robbing a rich person?"
After walking around the Freeman family's shop, it was Pate, who had the best command of Dwarf language, who finally went up to try to communicate with the dwarf clerk.
"Um, sir, may I ask..."
It is said that the mastery is the best, but in fact, the pronunciation of Common Chinese phonetic notation can be slightly more standard.
To the ears of real dwarves, the dwarven language spoken by Pet and his friends sounds very strange, with messy tones and rhymes.
So as soon as Peter opened his mouth, the other party rolled his eyes.
He didn't even bother to talk to Peter, and he didn't even hide his contempt for others.
I found a large stone slab over the counter with a few lines of words written on it.
This time it is the standard Chinese version of the Eight Classics.
"Freeman Family Store"
"Exclusive Cold Essence Craft Forging"
"Accept bulk orders and exclusive customization"
"The consultation fee is 5 gold coins each time, which can be partially deducted from the order amount!"
When Peter saw it, he almost laughed angrily.
It's exactly what Yanhu Brickett said.
Here in the stone castle, the further down you go, the more xenophobic and arrogant the dwarves become.
The dwarves on the fourth floor are still willing to communicate with Peter and the others.
They don't like to talk to people, mostly because they don't like human's personality and habits.
But if the other party suits their taste, they are willing to make friends.
The dwarves belonging to the Freeman family on the third floor are different. They look down on outsiders more seriously.
Even consultation requires money, otherwise they don't bother to talk to you at all.
Mastering the exclusive casting magic, weapons and equipment of cold spirit craftsmanship, only the dwarves of the Freeman family in the entire Prantis continent can make them.
You can buy it or not, anyway, you can't buy it anywhere else. If you want to buy the latest equipment that has just been forged, you can only find them!
The consultation fee is as high as 5 gold coins!
Of course, Pete will not spend this money in vain.
Coincidentally, Rena's message came, she found the unknown tapestry shop and the dwarf with vortex patterns on his body.
With the clues to directly track down the black robe man, only a fool would continue to please these stubborn and arrogant dwarves!
Before leaving, Pete thought for a moment, took out the letter of introduction written by the Countess to Bron Freeman, and threw it on the counter.
Of course, it was not the original letter of introduction.
Because there were quite a few followers who planned to track down the black robe man, and there was only one original letter of introduction.
Everyone simply copied a batch of copies, and almost everyone had one.
Pete said in a stuttering dwarf language:
"Here is a letter forwarded to Bron Freeman. His old friend has something to tell him."
"That's it!"
Pete greeted:
"Everyone, let's go, let's hurry up and find Lena to meet up!"
Just as he was about to leave the weapons and equipment store opened by the Freeman family, he suddenly heard a somewhat anxious dwarf shout behind him:
"Sir! Wait a minute!"
"You just said, this is a letter to Bron Freeman?"
"Who wrote this letter?!"
Pete raised his eyebrows.
His footsteps stopped.
Now, the party that needs help has exchanged!
...
There is one more
