Chapter 826 -510 Sarmekhale’s copper ring and Matteus’s Magic Ring _2
This miraculous event quickly spread throughout the Dwarf Clan. After praying to the Dwarf divine, the Dwarf Priest announced to all Dwarves that this baby was the divine son of [Sarmekhal].
To celebrate this miracle, the elders of the Dwarf Clan held a grand ceremony, celebrating and looking forward to him becoming the flame and light of wisdom for the entire Dwarf Clan.
As time passed, Matthias Hammer demonstrated an unimaginable capacity for learning and creativity. Not only did he master the secrets of Flame Magic, but he could also sculpt rocks into exquisite artworks, create numerous technologies utilizing volcanic lava’s heat energy, and achieve unprecedented accomplishments in fields like construction, craftsmanship, and magic.
Matthias Hammer created many pieces of Legendary Equipment throughout his life, leaving a significant mark in the history of the Dwarves.
And this [Sarmekhal’s copper ring], is related to Matthias Hammer’s most mysterious creation.
The Blair that Lis knew was a character who appeared later in the storyline.
The Iron Hammer Commerce he established primarily dealt in the trade of weapons, equipment, and ores between the Dwarf City and the Human Kingdom.
He shipped grain, fine wine, ores, and other merchandise to the Jianuo Mountain Range and purchased finished weapons and equipment from the Dwarves to trade within the Human Kingdom.
The Iron Hammer Commerce frequently appeared in the storylines in which players participated.
At first, the players didn’t understand why Blair, a human, was able to get support from the Dwarven upper echelons for the establishment of his guild.
Later, they learned it was because Blair had brought a special ring to the Dwarf Clan.
The Dwarves found the final and most important creation of Matthias Hammer’s life through clues hidden within this [Sarmekhal’s copper ring].
[Matteus’s Magic Ring]!
After the Dwarf Clan found the Magic Ring left by Matteus, it became a Holy Object for them, which was why Blair received their gratitude.
As for [Matteus’s Magic Ring], Lis didn’t know much about it; although its name suggested it was an accessory, this Magic Ring was actually a weapon.
Some players witnessed a Dwarf Legend using this Magic Ring, which could morph into different weapon forms.
Lis was aware of forms such as Longsword, Long Spear, Shield, Heavy Hammer, bow and arrow, Gloves, and each possessed considerable power.
By just these performances alone, this [Matteus’s Magic Ring] was undoubtedly one of the most suitable weapons for Lis.
Even though he didn’t know if this Magic Ring could transform into a Magic Wand, it would suffice for Lis to use any of the other weapon forms.
After all, as the owner of the [All-Purpose] talent and the Warrior profession talent of [All Martial Arts Mastery], Lis could skillfully use all weapons, whether they were used by Warriors, such as the Longsword and Dagger, or by Rangers and Priests, such as the bow and arrow and Heavy Hammer.
The ability to swiftly switch weapons in battle, saving even one second, could decide the outcome of a battle at Lis’s level.
Furthermore, owning [Matteus’s Magic Ring] was equivalent to owning a Legendary Longsword, a Legendary Dagger, a Legendary Bow and Arrow, and many other weapons.
This was why Lis placed a bounty on the clues to this Magic Ring.
After arriving in Cui Feng City, Lis dedicated many bounty tasks to players, based on memories from his past life and aimed at finding those useful hidden clues.
Unlike the Feis Kingdom and the Elf Forest, the area around the Gorden Kingdom wasn’t Lis’s primary activity area in his previous life, so he wasn’t familiar with many related storylines.
Besides, there were some specific processes of obtaining treasures that the players did not understand.
Take [Matteus’s Magic Ring] as an example; players were unclear about the specific way to acquire it.
The only information learned from the stories passed down by the Dwarves was that the Magic Ring was related to the copper ring in traveler Blair’s possession.
“Don’t be nervous.”
Lis looked at the still somewhat nervous Blair, who tried to calm himself down forcibly, and said with a smile.
No matter what, Lis didn’t intend to snatch the copper ring from Blair.
With Lis’s power, he could take the copper ring without anyone noticing, but that wouldn’t align with his principles.
After all, as the Duke of the Feis Kingdom, the Elf Sage, and the World Tree Sage, Lis had status and identity!
Moreover, Blair himself was quite a capable person.
As the future guild leader of Iron Hammer Commerce, Blair’s capability was significant enough to support such a large guild and become a bridge between the Dwarves and the Human Kingdom, making him an important talent.
Lis currently had ample resources but was short on all kinds of talent.
For example, the White Dove Mercenary Corps now lacked a primary person in charge.
Although Lis had built the initial framework, the remaining work could be handed over to others.
Lis had plenty to do, such as dealing with the Evil God believers hidden in Cui Feng City or the war near Ely Hills.
So…
Blair, I want you and your ring!
For some reason, Blair, feeling a hint of eagerness in Lis’s gaze, shivered all over and quickly said:
“Lord Lis, why do you want this ring?”
“Well…”
Lis swirled the wine in his glass and smiled:
“Actually, you should realize that, if it were just a storage ring, it might be valuable to others, but to me, it isn’t much.”
“Yes.”
Blair was silent for a moment, not arguing.
Although the space inside the brass ring he held was considerably large and precious to ordinary people or adventurers, it wasn’t as significant to Lis, who was likely a young noble.
Not to mention the faint authority emanating from Lis suggested he was a much stronger individual.
Feeling gloomy, Blair remained honest and sat there without relaxing.
If push came to shove, he would have to give up this storage ring.
Although he was reluctant, he wouldn’t risk his life for a ring.
“This ring has other more valuable aspects, although you probably haven’t noticed.”
Lis smiled as he glanced at Blair and said bluntly.
“What?”
Blair rubbed the ring on his hand, puzzled.
“So, I’m willing to offer a price that satisfies you in exchange for this ring, what do you say?”
Lis looked at Blair and placed a ring on the table before him.
Unlike Blair’s brass ring, this one was inlaid with beautiful gemstones, and the rest was made of gold.
“This is…”
Hesitating for a moment, Blair picked up the ring and tried to explore it with his mind.
“This!”
Blair was so shocked that he stood up abruptly, knocking over his chair.
The golden ring in his hand not only had a storage space no smaller than his own ring, but it also contained several chests full of Gold Coins.
On a rough count, there were about forty to fifty thousand Gold Coins!
Without hesitation, Blair tightly grasped the golden ring, quickly taking off the brass ring and respectfully handed it to Lis.
“Thank you for your generosity, I agree!”
Hmm~ it’s wonderful!
In an instant, Lis’s status in Blair’s heart soared.
Initially, Blair had prepared himself to receive a small compensation, but upon seeing the ring and Gold Coins, he had no reservations.
He didn’t even want to retrieve the remaining goods in the brass ring anymore.
Lis laughed as he accepted the brass ring, playing with it in his hand and smiling as he said:
“Then… there’s one more thing.”
“Mr. Blair, would you work for me?”
Σ(°△°|||)︴
What?
Blair looked at Lis, shocked, and a trace of despair appeared in his eyes.
So… this was the plan all along?
Deep are the ways of the nobles!
