In Shire Reckoning 1340, one year before the departure of the Lonely Mountain expedition, the wizards have not yet visited the Shire, Thorin is still wandering, and the dragon sleeps in the mountai...
Chapter 292 Wings of Flame
Today is undoubtedly a day worth celebrating, although the dwarves are divided on this issue.
But at least the dwarves agreed on one point - compared to their home being occupied by the Balrog, this was already a very good result.
At least they didn't have to lose their homes again.
River City did not just sit there and watch the reconstruction of Erebor. With considerable support from here, the reconstruction of Erebor was carried out very efficiently.
Of course, this is all later.
"In any case, the problem of underground heat has been solved."
“Now it’s getting hot.”
Looking at the news sent back by the miners, Thorin, who was in the banquet hall in River Valley City, shook his head and poured himself another glass of beer.
The surroundings were extremely lively, but he only felt it was noisy.
According to the miners, a large area of the bottom of the Erebor mine collapsed, fires were still burning in many places, and the temperature inside the cave was quite high. If no solution was found, work would not be able to continue for a long time.
"Relax, it's all trivial. I'm still here with you."
Levi clinked his glass with his and drank it all in one gulp.
It’s icy and cool, very refreshing.
"call--"
"Don't worry about those fires. At worst I can go down and pour two buckets of water to put them out."
"I feel relieved when I hear you say that."
Thorin raised his eyebrows and his appetite improved a lot.
Obviously, he is not an ungrateful person.
The King Under the Mountain, who was gradually entering old age, just complained about the loss of Erebor, but if he was really asked to blame the careless guy next to him, he couldn't do it.
"Bud."
At this time, Levi waved to the side again.
"It's really touching. After all these years, your arrows are still so accurate, and your hands are even steadier than before."
Bud smiled and also felt refreshed.
"This is really... It's been a long time since I last exercised like this. I'm glad I can still help you in the battle."
"This is not something that ordinary people can do, sir."
A voice that sounded a little old but familiar came.
"Alfred." Bud called back.
At this moment, the former deputy mayor of Changhu Town who once declared that "not all men have the courage to wear women's clothes" is very different from before. Not only has his temperament changed a lot, but his reputation has also returned to normal.
You have to know that his reputation was quite low back then. It seems that he has done a lot of work over the years.
"I don't know if you still remember him, Levi."
Bud said, "But whether you remember or not, I have to introduce you again: This is Alfred, the model worker of Long Lake Town for five consecutive years."
"oh--"
Levi looked at the manly guy in front of him with curiosity and was a little dazed for a moment.
"I do remember this person, but if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have recognized him just now."
Levi was quite interested to see what this guy had become now.
"You are almost two different people than you were before."
There is something called nature. A person's fundamental character cannot be changed easily.
There must be a lot of stories involved.
"grown ups."
Alfred's expression became serious.
"Please do not be surprised, my lord. I just chose life over death."
"I want to live, and Master Bud gave me this opportunity."
"I have missed opportunities like this time and again before. Each time I missed an opportunity, I almost lost my life. But every time I missed an opportunity, I was lucky enough to be helped again."
"When I faced that hand for the last time, I probably figured it out. It wasn't a mockery of me, nor was it an attempt to take advantage of my misfortune. Instead, it was really giving me a chance to survive."
"My lord, you provided the conditions for me to get the opportunity, and Master Bud extended the hand."
Alfred closed his eyes and bowed slightly to the two men.
Levi nodded.
"It's good to be able to change. I'm glad to see that you can make such a change."
"You've become a real man."
Alfred puffed out his chest and responded, "This is the most valuable compliment I have heard in all these years."
“…”
After saying this, he looked at Levi's face, was silent for a moment, and then said: "Time is always ruthless, sir, but it has not taken away anything from you. You are still as strong and full of spirit as you were back then."
ha…
Levi didn't respond, just chuckled and took a sip of wine.
As time went by, more and more people noticed something unusual about him.
Strictly speaking, he is indeed a human being, a very pure and ordinary human with only 20 health points.
The only difference from the others is that his state is fixed.
However, although this difference was noticed, it did not attract much attention.
Some speculate that he is a young Dúnedain who will not age even after a hundred years, while others speculate that he has some secret method that allows him to maintain his youthfulness...
However, all these speculations are just rumors that people occasionally mention when chatting after dinner, and there is nothing to confirm them.
There are many explanations for this phenomenon, and it's nothing to be surprised about.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The celebration lasted for many days.
When the celebration was over, the dwarves immediately got busy with the reconstruction work, and the humans of Dale City kindly provided them with help.
Everyone lived their lives as usual, but whenever they had free time, they couldn't help but discuss the fire demon from underground.
In 2962, a disaster that awakened from underground and spread upwards ended, and was ended by Levi himself.
After the Balrog was completely killed, its head was hung at the city gate.
Everyone who passed by couldn't help but look up at the huge, ferocious head with horns, and marveled in their hearts at the truth of the rumors.
"Rivers evaporated, the sun's rays were blotted out, and all of Erebor was nearly destroyed."
"It is more majestic and powerful than a fire dragon."
"But there are those who are stronger than both of them."
The historian began to write.
There is one more major event to be recorded in the history books, and their thickness is gradually increasing.
…
After staying in River Valley City for a while, Levi set out back to Roadside Castle and came to the private forge underground.
After putting the Flame of Udun and the iron ingot into the alloy furnace, a piece of hot metal with an orange-yellow glow was fired.
Tengyan Ingot.
The Netherite Breastplate has been upgraded, with the armor value increased from 8 to 10, and the toughness has also increased.
After upgrading the Netherite Breastplate, Levi took out the elytra and fused them with the breastplate on the forging table, making it the Tengyan Elytra Breastplate.
After putting on the Tengyan Elytra Breastplate, Levi only felt a bright light around him, and the cloak on his body suddenly caught fire and turned into ashes in a short while.
Replacing the cloak were two gliders made of flames hanging behind him.
From now on, he can glide while wearing armor.
but…
Looking up and down at his own look, Levi scratched his head, thinking that it was a bit too high-profile.
The shape of Teng Yan's breastplate is a bit ferocious, and has a flashy style.
The breastplate itself would burn and glow very brightly, and the heat emanating from it was enough to keep ordinary people away.
Add to that the huge spikes on the shoulder armor, the striking orange-yellow pattern, and the two flame gliders with flames floating on the back...
This thing is a bit too high-profile, so high-profile that Levi feels a little disgusted.
It is also dangerous. If he wears it on a daily basis, I am afraid that no one in the entire territory except Xiaofen would dare to approach him. If they get a little closer, they will be burned.
It would be very inconvenient to have to warn the people to stay away every time you pass by.
After a little thought, Levi chose to use the Tengyan Armor as an unconventional form for air combat and extreme environments, and usually wore the Dragon Flame Steel Suit on land.
In terms of safety, the Dragon Flame Steel is also greater than the Teng Yan Set. The former has six points more overall armor than the latter, and its toughness is eight points higher.
The advantage of the latter, which is the Tengyan suit, is that it can be equipped with elytra, and provides some special effects and knockback resistance that are convenient for fighting in a fire environment.
It is slightly better in functionality, but still lacks in defense.
Taking all the above into consideration, it can only be used as a backup means and one of the trump cards in the backpack to collect dust.
But when it really comes in handy, it will surely amaze everyone.
