Warhammer Wizard

Hearing Zoltan's words, Renn was surprised: "Do you know this teleportation formation?"

"Of course." Zoltan squatted down, swept away a large amount of dust, exposing more rune arrays, and explained in a dull voice: "I bought this hotel a few years ago for the purpose of it. The dust was on purpose. It's covered, I didn't expect you to find it."

Ren laughed, actually he found it the first time he entered the secret room.

He was a little curious, "Where does the teleportation array lead?"

Zoltan hesitated for a few seconds, as if he was thinking about whether to tell Renn, he glanced at Renn, and finally said, "This is the teleportation formation leading to the underground fortress of Hoskin Tuck. You are a wizard. , I also learned a lot of rune knowledge, I should be able to see that these runes are from dwarves."

"Underground fortress!"

Ryan was taken aback, "Is the rumors true?"

Everyone living in Longshande has more or less heard the story of the underground fortress.

Longshande is one of the oldest cities in the empire. It is said that before Longshande was established, it was a large ruin. As early as the last epoch, thousands of years ago, when the dwarves ruled the eastern continent of Yorese, a huge city was built on this land, called Hoskin Tuck, sometimes called Ironbeard City.

Hoshkin Tuck is divided into two parts: above ground and underground.

The one on the ground is called the Ironbeard Fortress, and the one under the ground is the Ironbeard Fortress.

The dwarves prefer to live underground, so the scale of the underground fortress is much larger than the fortress on the ground. It is rumored that there are countless treasures buried in the fortress.

But no one has ever entered the fortress, nor has any treasure been dug up.

The traces left by the dwarf have long been hidden in the long river of time.

After a long time, the story about the Dwarf Fortress has gradually become a distant legend, and few people take it seriously.

Rehn lived in Longshande for a few years, and of course he heard the rumors of the fortress, but he did not expect it to be true.

"Of course it is true."

Zoltan's face became serious, and he slowly said, "Hoshkintak was established by the Ironbeard clan. In the last epoch, during the peak of the two thousand years, more than 600,000 dwarves lived in the fortress. The Dwarf’s largest city outside the mountains in the world is also the first fortress built not under the mountains, but in the plains."

Ren's heart moved, he knew the Ironbeard clan.

He immediately searched the Ironbeard clan in the personal library of his mobile phone, and found dozens of results, all of which were books about this dwarf clan.

"Is it the Ironbeard clan who has produced three dwarven supreme kings?" Renne asked.

"Yes."

Zoltan was very surprised. He didn't expect Renn to have heard of the Ironbeard Clan and knew the Dwarf Supreme King.

The dwarves nowadays have no Supreme King anymore, only a few dwarf kings.

He continued: "At the end of the last epoch, the Demon of the Abyss destroyed most of Ellen's city. Because of its location on the plain, the Ironbeard clan had no choice but to give up. I withdrew to the World Mountains before."

"Before the Ironbeard clan evacuated, in order to preserve the underground fortress, they blew up all the gates and entrances to the underground, leaving only five teleportation formations on the ground, hidden in different places."

Ren suddenly understood that this teleportation formation was one of them.

When he first entered the secret room, he found it very strange. The mechanical workshop outside was not like a basement at all. It was wide and large. The secret room was hidden behind a magic gate, as if it was carved out of a boulder. It's hard to find.

He was observing the rune circle on the ground with some doubts in his heart.

From the evacuation of the dwarves at the end of the last era, after a thousand years of darkness, and then the beginning of a new era for mankind, it is now 2528 in the Era calendar, which has a total of more than 3,700 years. Can this teleportation array still be used?

Renn's magic knowledge is still relatively superficial, but he also knows that if a rune array is not maintained, it can only run for a few years at most.

Over 3,700 years, a long time that sounds daunting, not to mention the sophisticated rune array, even the stones may have been weathered.

It is a miracle that fluctuations can still be transmitted from the rune circle now!

Zoltan guessed Rehn's thoughts and sighed: "When the Ironbeard clan evacuated back then, they were prepared for not having a chance to come back for hundreds of years."

"Therefore, the most brilliant rune lord in the clan is specially invited to take action to transform the rune circle so that they can only transmit in one direction. The energy source of the rune circle is the Moradin Temple in the underground fortress. In order to save The energy is activated every sixty years and lasts for half a year, allowing the rune circle to last as long as possible until the dwarves return."

"I only found two of the five rune arrays they left behind. The other one has been completely damaged. This one is better preserved. I checked it and can still be used."

Zoltan said this, squatting on the ground to observe the circle, but his face was a little confused.

He scratched his scalp, puzzled: "I calculate according to the annual calendar, and the rune array will have to wait another six years before it can be used. How can I activate it in advance? Is it my calculation?"

Ren heard the meaning of the words and couldn't help asking: "Zoltan, do you want to enter the underground fortress?"

"nonsense!"

Zoltan stood up and said loudly: "I ran all the way from the World Mountains to the Empire and lived in Longshand for so many years, just to enter the underground fortress of Hoskin Tak."

"What's in the fortress that kept you planning for so long?" Renn was quite interested.

Zoltan rubbed his beard excitedly: "Of course it's a treasure!"

"Hoshkin Tuck used to be one of the richest dwarf cities. The Ironbeard clan was in a hurry when it evacuated, and it was impossible to take away all the treasures. Most of them were left in the underground fortress, maybe in a secret room. There are hills of golden gems."

Rennes disagrees, "Thousands of years have passed, such a big underground fortress, there may have been people who have gone in and emptied the treasure."

Zoltan's expression was stagnant, but in fact he was also worried about this matter, without much hope.

He sighed and said: "The treasure is still second. I entered the underground fortress mainly to find the rune techniques of the ancestors."

"Since Moradin, the **** of forging and craftsmanship of our dwarves, after the fall of the last era, many rune techniques and knowledge have been lost. Maybe it is still preserved in the Ironbeard Underground Fortress. I want to go in and try my luck."

Zoltan fell silent after speaking.

Ren nodded, indicating that he could understand his thoughts.

He has an understanding of the current situation of the dwarves. As one of the two overlords of Ellenus, he was hit hard by the abyss, many gods fell, the population plummeted, and his sphere of influence shrank by more than 90%. Now he can only retreat. Among the world's mountains, the only remaining five mountain fortresses are maintained.

The protagonist of this era is human, and the dwarves have been going downhill.

Ren didn't think that Zoltan's recovery of rune technology would be of much help to the dwarves.

The decline of the dwarf is caused by many factors, such as population, technology, culture, trade, the strong, and the gods. No matter from which point of view, it is impossible for the dwarves to restore their former glory.

The knowledge of runes thousands of years ago may be a bit useful, but it may be out of date.

Magic civilization also pays attention to advancing with the times. It is impossible for something older to become stronger. The overall trend, like any civilization, is spiraling upward.

Zoltan said so much, shaking out his plans for many years, without concealing it, obviously he wanted to enter the underground fortress with him.

Renne hesitated momentarily.

"Master Roger knows this teleportation array?"

Zoltan replied: "Of course he knows that Roger owes me a favor. He told him a long time ago and acted with me." He shrugged and said frankly: "Ryan, Your strength is very strong. Of course I hope you can join, but I won't force you."

"After all, you are still young and have a long life to enjoy. It is right not to take risks."

"In the original plan, it was only me and Roger."

"You think about it and tell me the answer tonight."

As Zoltan was talking, he got busy in the secret room, moved out the shelf where the alchemy materials were stored, and cleaned the dust on the ground.

Ren didn't speak, but just helped him to do it together.

The two quickly cleaned up the secret room. The circular rune array covered most of the ground. Under the light of the gas lamp, the nicks reflected a faint light.

The whole rune array does not look complicated, the real mystery lies in those runes.

Rune knowledge originates from the elements in the soul.

Each element has a unique symbol, some like graphics, and some are characters. They are all naturally formed symbols and contain a lot of rune knowledge.

Disassemble the element graphics, research in depth, get the corresponding simplified symbols, and recombine them to get a set of rune knowledge.

All forms of energy application, spellcasting, enchanting, alchemy, magic circle, curse, potion, scroll, more or less can not get rid of the influence of runes.

Master the knowledge of runes and master the world.

Ellen's rune system is very large, almost every intelligent race has developed its own rune knowledge, the most famous and powerful is the dwarf rune, which is better than the elven rune.

In the last epoch, the reason why the dwarf can become one of the two overlords is that rune technology has made great contributions.

The magical talents of dwarves are far inferior to elves. They rely on rune technology to create powerful weapons and armors and various chariots and cannons to compete with elves. The dwarves who master these skills are called rune blacksmiths and belong to the dwarf clan The most respected profession.

Above the runesmith, there are also the rune masters and the more respected rune lord.

The status of any rune lord among the dwarves is no less than that of the king, and there are currently less than ten rune lords.

And Zoltan is a master of runes.

Nowadays, humans also have a set of runes of their own, but compared with dwarven runes, there is still a big gap. However, humans also have mechanical technology and alchemy. The three complement each other, have more strengths, and have a far comprehensive strength. Win the dwarf.

There is a complete set of "Knowledge of Runes" in Ren's mobile phone. The content is extensive and profound, and it is vast as the sea. It has not been long since the beginning of learning, and it is far from mastering it.

When he was learning to make soul guns, Zoltan was not stingy, and taught some knowledge of dwarven runes.

These two different rune systems have greatly benefited Renn.

Since the journey, Zoltan has treated himself very well. He stayed in the hotel on the first day and provided a mechanical workshop and alchemy materials. Although they were all paid, the money was really nothing. The golden shield is not there.

After a few months of contact, the two are already good friends.

Moreover, the underground fortress is a big secret, and Zoltan did not hide it from himself. He did not hesitate to say it, which shows his trust in himself.

Ren tended to enter the underground fortress with Zoltan, but he didn't know much about the fortress and he had no confidence in his heart.

This is a one-way teleportation array. If you enter it, you may not be able to get out, and you will be trapped inside.

Not to mention, there are other dangers in the underground fortress.

Zoltan saw Ren's suspicious expression, he smiled, and said, "Ren, I'm sure there is an exit from the underground fortress. Don't worry about that."

"Why?" Renne asked.

Zoltan suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Do you know Elfa the Great?"

Ren nodded.

In the Orionse Empire, every child grew up listening to the legend of Elfa the Great, who was the founder of the empire and was known as the greatest human hero in history. There may not be one.

Ballads praising the great achievements of the great and the legends of his life have spread throughout Ellen Ess for a long time.

Almost everyone, whether they are humans, elves or dwarves, can tell a story or two about Elfa the Great. Some are true, some are fabricated by people, but whether true or false, the Great is always a poem. The heroic protagonist in novels and music ~www.ltnovel.com~Zoltan continued: "Emperor Alpha was born in a human settlement south of Longshande. He is the son of the chief of the settlement. He lived in Longshande as a teenager. He grew up here for many years, so Longshande is actually the hometown of the great emperor."

This is a well-known thing, what are you talking about?

Renn didn't understand Zoltan's intentions.

"Alpha the Great and you have one thing in common, I don't know if you have thought about it." Zoltan's gaze scanned Renn, his eyes were rather strange.

"What do I have in common with the emperor?"

Rehn was a little confused, and then his inspiration flashed, and he lost his voice: "Warhammer?"

He couldn't help being a little gaffe, because the warhammer of Elfa the Great was so famous. It was a legendary weapon with a long name called "Thunder God’s Fury, Skullcrusher’s Cursed Hammer." This kind of poetry story is simply called "Thor's Hammer"!

This warhammer accompanied Alfa the Great throughout his life and almost became the symbol of this legendary hero.

According to rumors, Thor's Hammer is the most powerful weapon under the artifact, ranking first among all legendary weapons. Emperor Elfa holds the warhammer in his hand and is invincible, and countless enemies have been headshot by the warhammer.

After the death of Elfa the Great, Thor's Hammer disappeared.

This warhammer appeared briefly for a few years more than a thousand years ago. It caused a huge disturbance in the empire, was involved in a series of events, and then disappeared again.

Renn looked at Zoltan, eyes full of expectation.
