Chapter 154 - The Contemptuous Dwarves (2/2)
Although the competition had not started yet, there were already many spectators in the venue.
As far as the eye could see, most of them were Dwarves. After all, in their minds, the Dwarves would definitely win the forging competition. This was their pride, so they were very motivated.
Of course, besides the Dwarves, there were also many other races who came to watch the competition.
Most of them were not here to enjoy the forging competition but to find an excellent forging master.
As for why they looked for a forging master, it was obvious.
Mike smiled and walked from the edge of the venue to the contestants’ resting area.
As soon as he walked into the resting area, the other contestants around him all cast their gazes over.
Yes, they were all Dwarves.
When they saw Mike, they did not take him seriously at all.
Mike was very happy about this.
If these people insisted on coming over and making fun of him, Mike would feel very troubled.
Simply winning the competition and getting the reward would be enough.
Although there were only three Dwarves and four competitors including Mike, it did not mean that the quality of this forging competition was low.
In fact, the rewards of the annual forging competition were very high.
Mike remembered very clearly that one of the forging competitions had rewarded an orange hammer.
For a forging master, a hammer was not a weapon used to attack, but a forging tool used to forge equipment.
Therefore, that year’s forging competition was particularly famous.
As for what the reward was for this year, Mike did not know.
In his previous life, he should still be fighting monsters and leveling up in the human territory at this time, so he did not pay attention to these things at all. Therefore, even Mike, who had been reborn, was unaware of this information.
Regardless, the reward would definitely be decent.
Mike smiled and found a seat. He did not communicate with the other three competitors.
The other three seemed to look down on Mike and did not converse with him.
The four of them were safe and sound in the rest area.
Soon, the registration was cut off, and no new competitors joined.
In the arena, the host’s voice clearly entered everyone’s ears.
“Today is the annual forging competition. This is the glorious tradition of us Dwarves, and also the day to show our forging skills, which can be called art, to the world.”
The host openly boasted about the Dwarves’ forging skills, causing all the Dwarves present to cheer loudly.
The Dwarves themselves were an irritable race. Their friendliness would only appear under special circumstances, such as today’s festive day.
Soon, as if receiving the host’s signal, the cheering stopped.
The host continued to speak loudly,
“However, today is a special competition that is different from the past.
“We actually have a human contestant today!
“I’m sure everyone is clear that over the past 50 years, there has neevr been a contestant that isn’t a Dwarf.
“To be honest, I’m looking forward to this human contestant’s performance.”
The host’s words sounded friendly, but the crowd burst into laughter. Obviously, no one thought that this human could achieve anything.
In their opinion, other than the Dwarves, the other races were here to embarrass themselves.
The laughter naturally reached Mike’s ears.
The smile on his face gradually disappeared.
‘Since you all think the Dwarves are the best blacksmiths.
‘I’ll show you what a real master is today!’
