"Is it made according to the drawings I gave you?" Leng Xuan asked.

"Basically, yes, but some key details have been modified." The short old man said slowly, "The blueprint you gave me is only applicable to mortal weapons, but your thing is made of ebony steel, and its hardness is incomparable to mortal metals. If you don't modify it, you can't use it at all."

"It's fine as long as it works. Where are the bullets?"

The short old man reached out and opened the secret compartment of the black metal box. Seven dark and dark bullets were lying neatly inside.

"Only seven?" Leng Xuan frowned.

"Only? Do you know how rare this Red Divine Stone is? These seven pieces are all my belongings!" The short old man widened his eyes and said unhappily, "Besides, how many bullets do you think this thing can fire? I have already calculated it for you. Although this weapon is made of ebony steel, according to your firing rate and strength requirements, it can only withstand seven overloads at most.

After you use up these seven bullets, this thing will explode. Even if you were given an eighth, would you use it?

Having said that, if such a rare and precious material was used to forge a divine weapon, it would at least be of the main god level... Now using it to make something that can only be used seven times is simply a waste of resources."

Ignoring the short old man's complaints, Leng Xuan was silent for a moment and put away the secret compartment.

"I see."

"Let me make it clear in advance. I don't care what you want to do with this thing, but you must not let anyone know that it was made by me. Once you walk out of this door, the favor I owe you and Si Xiaonan will be repaid. From now on, the entire Dwarf Kingdom will have nothing to do with you." The short old man looked into Leng Xuan's eyes and said solemnly.

Leng Xuan carried the black box, which was taller than him, on his back, looked at the short old man in front of him, bowed and said:

"I know... Thank the God of Forge, thank the Forge Temple."

The short old man snorted, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards the pillar of fire behind him.

Leng Xuan carried the black box on his back, walked across the barren and hot land, and left the Dwarf Kingdom directly.

After climbing over countless mountains, he didn't know how long it had passed before he returned to the emerald lake. He caught a glimpse of the fallen leaves reflected in the lake, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

After he leaned over to check the symbols left by Si Xiaonan, his eyes gradually lit up:

"Nanaye...?"

…

“Yawn——!”

Lin Qiye sneezed suddenly.

He rubbed his nose, looked up at the desolate and deserted valley in front of him, and asked in confusion:

"Are you sure they live here?"

"Yes." Si Xiaonan nodded, "I came here with Loki before. He wanted to see the three goddesses, but the three goddesses avoided him on purpose. Later, he got angry and set fire to the entire valley."

"Burning down the entire valley? Didn't the Three Goddesses fight back?"

"No... They are not gods who are good at fighting. Besides, no one knows what they are thinking. They are very mysterious."

"So, they may not meet me?"

"Of course. If they don't want to see you, you won't see them even if you travel all over the valley... Don't forget, they are the goddesses who control fate and time."

Hearing this, Lin Qiye became even more worried.

The two of them walked along the valley. After an unknown amount of time, they had already gone deep into the valley. Apart from the wild beasts and poisonous creatures that occasionally jumped out of the forest, they did not see any other people.

Just as Lin Qiye sighed helplessly, several crisp slapping sounds came from the river in the distance.

Lin Qiye was startled, looked at Si Xiaonan, and quickly walked towards the direction where the sound came from.

Passing through the dense trees, a winding stream came into view. Beside the stream, a short-haired woman in blue clothes, holding a piece of wood, was constantly beating the clothes spread on the ground, and then putting them into the stream to wash again.

"Is there anyone washing clothes in this valley?" Lin Qiye asked in surprise when he saw this scene.

"...She is not human." Si Xiaonan stared at the figure closely. "She is the goddess of the past among the three goddesses, Urd."

"god?"

Lin Qiye looked at the woman washing clothes by the stream in surprise. No matter how he looked at her, she was just an ordinary village woman.

Si Xiaonan opened his mouth and was about to say something when the short-haired woman raised the block of wood in her hand again and casually knocked it on the stone beside her.

Bang--!

The dull sound seemed to penetrate the eardrum and hit Lin Qiye's heart directly, shocking him whole body and causing his brain to stop working. In an instant, countless past memories flashed before his eyes like a kaleidoscope.

Blind, adopted by my aunt's family, went to school, met Zhao Kongcheng, joined the Night Watch, went to training camp, and established the [Nightfall] team...

The brief two seconds of trance seemed as long as several years to Lin Qiye. He relived the entire history since he could remember in his mind.

Lin Qiye's body fell backwards uncontrollably and he fell down under a green shade. The same happened to Si Xiaonan beside him.

When Lin Qiye came to his senses, his entire back was soaked with sweat and his face was pale.

He stared at the short-haired woman holding a piece of wood by the stream.

Is it her? !

She discovered herself.

As if to confirm Lin Qiye's thoughts, Urd slowly turned his head, his eyes swept across Si Xiaonan, and finally stopped on Lin Qiye, and he let out a light exclamation.

Her brows furrowed, a look of confusion on her face.

"Your past..."

She stared at Lin Qiye, thinking seriously for a long time, but her brows were getting tighter and tighter. She shook her head, stood up from the ground, and walked slowly towards here.

Her eyes fell on Si Xiaonan, who was looking pale.

"Agent of the God of Trickery, traitor to Asgard, what exactly do you want to do by bringing this blasphemer here?"

The moment they heard these words, Lin Qiye and Si Xiaonan's pupils suddenly shrank.

With just one sentence, Urd exposed the identities of both of them. Even Lin Qiye's perfect disguise seemed to be ineffective.

"Don't be so surprised. The last time you and Loki came here, I saw through your past and your intention to stay in Asgard... As for you, your disguise is indeed flawless, but your past still exposes your identity." Urd looked at Si Xiaonan and Lin Qiye in turn and spoke slowly.

Lin Qiye originally wanted to ask the three goddesses for help in the identity of Miles, but he never expected that the goddess of the "past" would see through their identities at first sight, and even Si Xiaonan's rebellious intentions were exposed.

However, from Urd's words, she knew last time that Si Xiaonan was an undercover agent staying by Loki's side, but she did not speak up to remind Loki, and this time she took the initiative to show up in front of the two...

Does this mean that they may not care about their own identities?

Just as Lin Qiye was thinking wildly, another voice came from the dense forest.
