They all had extremely arrogant expressions.

Raine didn't mind and explained the secrets of constructing the magic base to them one by one.

Gradually, these elderly elves were impressed by Renn's profound magical knowledge and stopped treating him as a junior.

After answering the questions of the group of old scholars, Renn left the location of the hidden magic circle.

...

The dungeon of the Elf Forest.

The dungeon is located beneath a giant tree in the southern part of the Elf Forest.

Unlike the damp and dark environment of the Imperial prison, the dungeons in the Elf Forest felt more humane.

Although it was still incredibly dark, the environment was many times cleaner than the imperial prisons.

However, it is the harshest part of the Elf Forest.

Guided by several elves, Renn found Ophelia in a dungeon room.

The room was spotless, with a crystal chandelier illuminating the dome, unlike the dimness of the dungeon tunnel.

"How's it going? What did they find out?" Ryan pushed open the door and walked into the room to ask.

Ophelia smiled as she saw Renn enter, her ahoge (cowlick) standing on end, and said...

"We found out that these elite dwarves came for a mineral called Thorium Crystal from the underground of the elven forest."

"Ah, Renn, you probably don't know what Thorium Crystal is. I didn't know either, but I went to the Elven Library to check some information and found out that this ore contains a huge amount of energy."

"As for what the dwarves used thorium crystals for, I didn't find out."

Ophelia possesses the heart of an elf, allowing her to sense whether someone is lying, making interrogation relatively easy for her.

After explaining her current findings, Ophelia took two pale blue ores from the spatial magic device she had collected from the dwarves and placed them on the table.

Ryan sat down on a chair and shared his guess.

"Do you still remember the metal giants used by the dwarves in the Eternal Day Secret Realm?"

Ophelia, who was brewing herbal tea for Renn, paused and said.

"Raine, you mean... the Titan?"

"Um."

Ophelia brewed the flower tea, brought a cup to Renn's side and handed it to him. Seeing Renn take the tea, Ophelia smiled sweetly.

Raine said, "Those artificial sixth-order creations must require a tremendous amount of energy. I believe the dwarves want to use thorium crystals as the energy core of the Titans."

Ophelia stood beside Renn, thought for a moment, and then nodded.

"Yes, very likely!"

"I'll go ask those dwarves again."

After saying that, Ophelia left the room and headed towards the dwarf prison, but soon returned to the room.

“I asked several dwarves, and they all said they didn’t know, and the Heart of the Elf told me they weren’t lying,” Ophelia said to Renn after closing the door.

"It seems Gregory only told them to collect thorium crystals, but not what they were going to use them for," Raine said.

He stood up from his chair, placed his empty teacup on the table, and said.

"Let's go. There's no need to question these dwarves anymore. Let's go back and tell Her Majesty the Queen the results."

Ophelia nodded: "Yes."
