Chapter 1124 1106. Explosive Gem

When Lan En entered the treasure hall, he was initially shocked by the gold and silver mountains here, and then there was no fluctuation.

If we simply talk about the quantity of gold, Lan En once saw a small meteor composed of pure gold in outer space in [Memory Diving].

The volume of the meteor is almost three thousand cubic kilometers.

So unless it can be converted into purchasing power, Lan En's sense of the huge amount of gold is not really shocking.

The smell of the dragon is even stronger here, and this is where most of the complaints and fatigue of the other dwarves during this period came from.

Whoever searches for things day and night in a pile of cold metal filled with odor, even if it is gold, will only have energy in the first few days.

But Thorin is the only one who is most willing to stay here.

No one is coming in now, only Thorin himself, wearing his bloated and gorgeous robe that he dug out from his grandfather's relics, is rummaging through the mountains of gold coins looking for gems.

“Is this the majesty of the so-called ‘King under the Mountain’?”

Lan En also stepped on the gold coins and walked towards him, talking as he walked.

There was an obvious yin and yang in his tone.

“It seems that what you have gained after a year of hard work and travel is completely unseemly.”

“Don’t say anything ‘decent’ to me!” Thorin knelt on the pile of gold and persisted. He was digging down in ecstasy. "I want to find the Arken Stone and give orders to all the dwarves. By then, all of you who covet my gold will be thieves!"

The gold coins that Thorin dug up fell like quicksand on a dune. flow.

"Gold, gold, gold, you are still talking about gold! Is this thing really that important? More important than your life?"

Lan En lifted his leg from the flowing gold coins and made a clattering sound.

“Of course, we will use our lives to defend the gold in the Lonely Mountain! No one, elves or humans, can try to take it away!”

“If it’s just humans and elves, of course it’s easy to say.” Lan En's expression was calm, but the words he spoke made Thorin freeze in his tracks as he dug downwards.

"I can imagine what you did, Thorin. Your mood is abnormal now, but you are not stupid, and you also understand that facing the elven army and human refugees, fourteen people cannot stop them."

"You must have made arrangements so that you are still thinking about digging for gold and gems here right now, right?"

"Then what arrangements will you make?"
< br>The witcher said with a bit of fun.

Thorin's movement of digging for gold was just for a moment, and then, as if to cover up his guilty conscience, he started to move more explosively.

Lan En looked at Thorin who was hiding his guilty conscience, as if he were looking at a scheming little carrot head.

"It's so understanding, Thorin." The demon hunter shook his head, "You are so understanding."

"Although I don't know much about the terrain and situation here, I can learn from you. The general shape was outlined in his words. "

"To the east of the lonely mountain is the Iron Hills, which was the territory of your cousins. At the beginning, the evil dragon was menacing, and they did not dare to reach out for self-protection. Help. But things are different now, the evil dragon is dead, and their strength has also increased during this time."

"You have been stalling for time. I hope your letter for help and the restoration of the country will be successful. The notice has been sent to Iron Hills?”

The situation, information, and the relationship between various characters and regions. Whenever Lan En arrives in a new world, Mentos will immediately start building a database.

This is not without purpose.

The biochemical intelligence brain records various information and relationships he comes into contact with, and finally connects and confirms each other. as data support.

After coming to this world, what he came into contact with the most was the news about Gushan.

Thorin is not stupid. In front of the elves and townspeople, he has no possibility of guarding the Lonely Mountain with his own strength. The rest of the reasoning is simply a matter of course for Lan En.

After all, at this juncture and in this area, Thorin actually has very few choices.

Now that Lan En mentioned this in front of Thorin, he just wanted to use his reaction to confirm it.

But there is no doubt that Lan En's words left Thorin completely at a loss.

And this was just the beginning of Lan En's conversation with him.

Conversation strategies, the order of information disclosure, and emotional control. For people who are really good at negotiation, these things are actually planned before they start talking.

"Your plan is correct, and it is even quite feasible. This is finally something worthy of praise."

At this time, Thorin's hands were inserted into the pile of gold, and his digging movements were stopped in shock because of Lan En's words. He froze there, looking down at the golden coins with stupid eyes.

"But the problem is." Lan En's tone suddenly changed, with cold cruelty.

"Facing elves and humans who don't want to start a war, or simply want to solve the problem peacefully, of course you can delay it. It takes time."

"But if you really want to come, Those who kill, fight, and steal gold are not elves and humans?”

Thorin on the Golden Mountain seemed to be stimulated by this cold tone, and his whole body twitched, and the pile of gold coins made a clattering sound.

Lan En continued as if he hadn't seen it.

"You should still remember the news I brought you on the day you set off from Changhu Town to Gushan, right? Or is this gold already stuffed in your head?"

“I told you at the time: Gold is important, but it is not the most important. The most important thing is this strategic location. With the Lonely Mountain, the orcs can connect to the old land of Angmar Kingdom in the northwest and the dark forces in the entire north. You will get a chance to connect."

"Now that the evil dragon is dead, apart from the humans and elves who came nearby, who can't wait for this mountain the most?"

"Beast, Orcs?”

Thorin murmured in horror, his voice sounding like the last soft breath of a dying man in the empty hall.

"So the orcs, those natural murderers, executioners, and sadists, might they spend time here with you while you wait for reinforcements?"

"Be prepared to talk to you. Man, you can prevaricate. Then I am curious, what do you do to deal with someone who only wants your life?"

At this time, Thorin was at a loss. If it was him before, he would never be like this now. But now he is not the brave, resourceful and decisive dwarf warrior and leader.

But a Thorin Oakenshield with eyes full of gold.

The more he cared about gold and Gushan, the more afraid he felt, and the less courage he once had.

"The situation is very bad, Thorin. But it is not too late to do anything."

Just when the King Under the Mountain was lying on his golden mountain in fear, the witcher spoke at the right time. He sent out a much calmer voice.

"Spare the gold and give it to the humans in Riverdale City. They have nowhere to go. After getting the gold, they will no longer be your enemies, but they will still be the enemies of the orcs."

"The same goes for the elves. They only want their national treasure, the relics of King Thranduil's deceased wife. Their country is not far from the Lonely Mountain, and they have no position to watch the orcs occupy it."

"Thorin." Lan En said sincerely, "As long as you pay the gold you promised, you will find that you are actually comrades everywhere now, not enemies!"

The king under the mountain gasped for air and cried out in pain. Confused eyes scanned his own treasure.

Lan En's series of information bombardments made his already messy mood even more chaotic.

Under the golden mountain, the sound of trampling gold coins sounded, and the demon hunter was walking towards the outside of the hall.

Suddenly, the footsteps stopped.

Lan En, who was walking out, seemed to stop unintentionally, turned his head slightly and asked backwards.

"You have always regarded me as a wizard, right Thorin? Then you should also know that wizards can do magic."

"What?"

Now Thorin, who had a headache and was dizzy, turned his head to the witcher in confusion, but the dwarf's pupils instantly dilated!

"Arken Gem!"

A gem with a hazy and brilliant halo was being thrown up and down on the palm of the demon hunter.

There is no intention of cherishing and caring at all.

Thorin simply rolled and crawled towards Lan En at the foot of the Golden Mountain.

This movement made a lot of noise, because it was the same as Bilbo's original movement, and a large piece of gold coins slid down, making a continuous sound of gold coins hitting.

The dwarves who had been waiting outside looked at each other and were ready to go in to see what was going on.

Bahrain, who arrived early, stopped them.

"Let them talk. No matter what, they should be better than they are now. Wizards have wizards' methods, let's not go in and cause trouble."

Although we are worried, the seriousness of the current situation and the old dwarf's Prestige still managed to stop the others.

"How did you get it! Give it back to me!"

Thorin finally slid all the way down and said loudly.

"The wizard's little trick is very convenient for finding things." Lan En said perfunctorily. "As for returning it to you? I remember that this thing belongs to the people of Gushan, right?"

"It is the king's gem and belongs to the king! Am I not the king?"

"It's hard to say."

Faced with Thorin's crazy persistence, Lan En muttered indifferently.

"And I remember that you have already given me half of the proceeds from this adventure. I think this gem is good. What? The king under the mountain wants to break his promise again?"

"You can do whatever you want! Everything else is fine. Anything will do! Only this!"

Thorin looked at the gem flying up and down in Lan En's hand and said loudly.

The demon hunter had a cold expression on this statement.

“Another promise. It seems that the King under the Mountain is best at making worthless promises. Anyway, nothing can be redeemed in the end, right?”

"Okay."

Looking at Thorin's current infatuated and chaotic state, Lan En truly felt angry and disgusted.

Because a few days ago, this man was still a friend of his. At that time, he was resolute and courageous, and he could fight to the end in the face of an evil dragon.

But now he has become like this.

The demon hunter's beast eyes flashed.

It was precisely because he had seen the old Thorin that he wanted to change this guy back!

Bullshit [Dragon Disease] turned a dwarf hero and leader into a useless person!

“There is no negotiation, Thorin. You also know that no one in this mountain can stop me.”

“The Arken Stone is in my hand, unobstructed. Don’t covet this dwarf’s treasure.”

“As long as you fulfill your promise, this gem will not stay in my hands for one more minute.”

"The time limit is today's sunset. You have to transport the gold and distribute it to the people of Riverdale City. I will only give you this time, if it exceeds."

Both Lan En's hands stretched out in front of Thorin.

One of the hands holds the Arken gem, and the other hand holds an ordinary white gem.

“Bang!”

The flames exploded, startling Thorin who was looking at the Arken Stone crazily.

The ordinary gemstone placed on Lan En's left hand quickly lost its luster in the flames, and cracked and changed color visible to the naked eye.
