In the living room, Dolin and the city owner sat face to face, and both of them had a tacit understanding not to mention what happened before.
"Let's talk about how to cooperate." The city lord asked calmly.
"I don't think I need to say more about my strength. I can guarantee that when the Tiedang Gang invades you, I will help you resist them. Likewise, if I need you to take the initiative to attack, you should not hesitate." Dao Linxuan Speak slowly.
"Tie Rong County is not a warlike city-state. Our overall strength lies in defense. If we take the initiative to attack, we will expose many shortcomings." The city lord was embarrassed.
"You have to know that offense is the best defense. How many gangs have been annexed by the Tiedang Gang over the years? Their ambition is clear. Even the guard group is not immune. Are you sure that the city wall of Tielong County can withstand it? "Dorian's tone was still calm.
The city lord was silent...
"With the Vulcan Zhurong's Leg, we can activate the strongest defense of Tielong County. That is the real defense system."
Daolin hesitated for a moment, then took out the hammer leg of Vulcan Zhurong and placed it on the table.
"I can return this to you, but you must sign a contract with me. I can't trust you." Dolin said with his hand on his leg.
"Okay, the two of us will sign a contract..." the city lord said while looking at the leg of Vulcan Zhu Rong.
"No, I want to sign with the Chief Blacksmith." Dolin shook his head.
The city lord Wei Qian said: "The chief blacksmith has not appeared for decades, because... because two treasures were thrown into the earth's core furnace by the previous blacksmith, Tierong County has never elected a chief blacksmith since then. division."
"What do you mean?" Dolin asked confused.
"The Vulcan Zhurong Hammer is the treasure of Tierong County, and it is also the key to electing the chief blacksmith. Only a good enough blacksmith can afford the Vulcan Zhurong Hammer. This is why there is no chief blacksmith. "The city lord explained.
"Then why can I pick up the Vulcan Zhurong Hammer?" Daolin said as he took out the Vulcan Zhurong Hammer and rotated it a few times in his hand.
"This is also a question that puzzles me. To be honest, I don't know the reason." The city lord shook his head.
"To show my determination to cooperate, I have passed the test you mentioned, and to show my sincerity, I can return the leg of Vulcan Zhurong to you first, but I will still need to use this hammer for a while." Daolin handed Vulcan Zhurong The hammer took back the ring and said.
The city lord took a deep breath and nodded. Even if he didn't want to, there was nothing he could do about the strength shown by Daolin.
"Then let's sign a contract." Dorian said and stretched out his hand.
The city lord sighed and also extended his hand.
The two of them held their hands together and recited the oath in their hearts. After a while, they felt a force from somewhere wrapped up the two of them, and the contract was completed!
"Don't worry, when you think there is a good enough candidate, I will naturally return the Vulcan Zhurong Hammer." Daolin said with a smile.
The city lord nodded and said nothing more. This was already the best ending.
"By the way, there is one thing I want to ask you. Why don't you ask for help from the empire when you are threatened? Aren't you one of them?" Dolin asked in confusion. He had been thinking about this question for a long time.
"Because... we are a foreign race. Unlike other foreign races, we have been incorporated, but we cannot completely obey the Lieyang Empire, otherwise we will be quickly infiltrated and assimilated, and our craftsman clan will completely cease to exist."
When Daolin walked out of the living room, Thunder King and others immediately gathered around him.
"How is it? Have they agreed?" King Thunder Flash asked.
"Yes, the city lord and I have signed a contract, and I believe they will never go back on it." Dolin nodded and said.
Ade, who was standing in the distance, also came over at this time.
"Is it because you have experienced the fire in your heart that your body, body, and spirit merged?" Ade asked in a low voice.
"What? Do you want to try it too?" Dolin turned around and curled up the corner of his mouth.
"I don't have the courage..." Andrew said honestly.
"I advise you not to try, because you are not me." Dowling said with a smile.
"Can I try the Vulcan Zhurong Hammer?" Ade nodded and continued to ask.
Daolin was startled when he heard the words, and then understood what he meant. A light flashed in his hand, and the flaming Vulcan Zhurong's Hammer appeared in his hand.
Dowling placed the hammer gently on the ground and stepped back.
Ad took a deep breath and stretched out his hand to hold the hammer handle with a very pious expression, but the hammer did not move at all. Then the muscles of his right arm suddenly swelled, and he gritted his teeth hard, but still could not lift the hammer at all.
"No...if possible, I picked it up the first time. It seems that I am not worthy of being the chief blacksmith." Ade let go of the hammer handle and sighed softly, with a bitter look on his face.
Daolin patted him on the shoulder. This red-armored craftsman was extremely powerful. Being able to compete with the King of Thunder and Flash at a 50-50 ratio already explained a lot of problems.
"Don't be discouraged. Not being able to pick it up doesn't mean anything about you. It's just that you don't have the luck." The city lord at the entrance of the living room slowly pushed the wheelchair out and consoled him.
Ade nodded when he heard the words and looked at the city lord with gratitude.
"Okay, sorry for disturbing me, I'm leaving. My brother is still waiting for me to go back and rescue him. When I come back from Xiling Mountain, it's time to launch the attack." Daolin put away the hammer and looked at the city lord. .
The city lord nodded and watched Daolin and others walking down.
"City Lord, this matter..." Ade hesitated.
"He is stronger than that person and more suitable to be friends." The city lord gently patted the handle of the wheelchair.
"What if that person comes again?" Ade asked.
"Reject him!" The city lord said and turned his gaze to the distant sky.
The giant door slowly rose, and Daolin rode out on a white horse, followed by King Thunderbolt on a black horse and Old Donkey Head on a gray donkey. Lan Zou and Lan Mian returned to the soul-locking talisman formation.
"Let's go straight to Xiling Mountain..." Daolin shouted and rushed out on horseback.
King Thunderbolt and Old Donkey Tou looked at each other and followed suit.
After the three people left Tielong County, they headed west. After getting on the main road, they turned south.
"Master, we have been delayed here for a while. We may be tighter on the rest of the journey." Daolin said softly when King Thunderbolt caught up with him.
"Well, it should be in time. If you shorten your rest time, you should be able to catch up." King Thunderbolt nodded and replied.
"Are you really going to help them solve the problem of the Iron Gate Gang?" King Thunder Flash suddenly asked.
"I asked President Zhao about the soul carrier before. He said that it is not easy to get, and even he has to find it slowly..."
"As long as we can have a good relationship with this group of craftsmen and let them build the soul carrier, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Not only that, the specifications will be the same and it will look more comfortable."
"I've heard about this iron stall. It's very powerful. Although it's not as widely penetrated as the Resurrection Society, it's still the master of stomping and swaying in the west of Lieyang!" On the other side, the old donkey head was leisurely riding gray. The donkey followed up and said.
"No matter who he is, if he wants to be a stumbling block in my plan, I will crush him!"
