Chapter 122 Second home invasion. (1/2)

“H metal were heard in the dim-lit room Each time the hammer descended on the heated steel plate it produced htened this workshop

Bernir was at it again, this time around he had s to place the piece ofrun on electricity he didn’t need to worry about blowing any wind into this forge with the bellows

Instead, there was a little crank on the side that ound up in the right direction would e produce heat He had no idea how this tool really worked as his boss was quite cryptic about it It didn’tite the ot it in a so to craft the cuirass portion today, at least the front side before the day ended

The whole process was sped up thanks to some of the machines that Roland had left behind Before he needed to s like drilling holes, quick sharpening, or even cutting were possible

It was now quite easy for hirah which he could rivet the parts to each other The most bothersorooves needed to fit the ht, otherwise, they could either fall out or be crushed during combat

After most of the day had passed Bernir was left with a deep steel armor part It was the breastplate this ti before atte the creation of the rear plate When both parts were connected they would form the full deep steel cuirass

“Good… interit to the side With this, he would have the lower portion along with the chest almost done Then came the arms, shoulders and the last would be the hel any intricate designs on this ar it would already be quite stylish With the addition of mana crystals, it would look even better, this would also add to the all-around cost

“I hope the boss will like it…”

Bernir yawned out while putting the piece of arether with all the other pieces, he hadfine

“Was it supposed to be three weeks? Or four…”

Bernir had been busy working but that didn’there alone Without his boss’s frowny face it didn’t seeht He hoped that he would return soon, he was very much interested in all the runic contraptions that he made and how he could aid in their creations

For him a proper dwarven craftsical equipment His boss also had a knack for it, he was able to come up with various ite at one of them just now It had a spherical shape and was up on a thin stand On the stand was a little indent for his thureen illusion would appear It depicted the whole workshop and he could even see the tunnels around it

“This never gets old… let me see…”

Bernir had lived ical item like this was quite a novelty His boss even told him to use it often as it detected if there were any people orat this light show, he reet cleaned, and have one last drink before going to bed At least that was the plan but before he could go out he heard a whistling sound

“What the?”

It was followed by a red light going up in the corner of the workshop This was so that his boss had warned him about He quickly moved back to the detection device and turned it back on

The red light and whistlingwas amiss This was an alarm feature and would only activate if someone was close to the property Blue dots, there were four of them and they were all close to each other

Roland had given him an explanation about the various colors Red would be ular animals and then there was blue, people from the many races

“They are close by…around?”

This workshop was close to the city and between the dungeon Froh here, some of them even hunted the animals in the forest as well as the lesser monsters

“But ould they still be here at this hour…”

It was quite late, close to ht outside The city was bright from the outside so it was easy to spot but this house was not He was sure to put out any lights when going down into the workshop so as to not waste any electricity that could go into the runic tools

He started to sweat, s that a back to hied to snap back to reality

“No… this time it won’t be the same…”

Bernir looked to the wall, on it a soun chamber attached to it To the side, there was also a vest with pockets, in them quite the assort his gaze ra he needed to make sure that they were actually enemies and not some passersby

“Is everyone ready?”

One of the hoodedand that was to get rich They knew that the probleeon expedition It would take at least another week for hih time to skip town

“Yes!”

The other three thieves nodded while the boss looked to the large wall This house was a bit strange, the bottom part was hardwood but there was a metallic fence with barbed wire above it

“Remember, it's only one blacksht”

The group had been looking at this area for a whole week and came prepared with a plan They knew about the only resident inside and were aware that he would pose no threat to the at the highest level

“Let’s go!”

They all nodded at each other and silently moved towards the fenced of hoether There was soe about this fence, thus they knew that it would be best to evade it

One of the hooded ether With his help, the other three were able to easily vault over this barbed ithout even touching it once The fourth on the other hand had to take on a running start to barely jump off the fence He ale sensation wash over his body as he was passing by

“Wait…we need to be careful…”

The group knew that there was soe with this whole house One of the thieves that was versed in traps crouched dohile activating his skill From the outside they could not tell that there were any traps but when being so close by it was easy to notice

“The ground has been dug up…”

He did not knoas buried there but he knew that there was so There were various possibilities here, traps ca a runsesical in nature Instead of trying to disar them off

“Use that ite that looked like a pocket watch After injecting some of his ht that whencontact with the ‘traps’ illu…Let us continue”

They used this itee amount of these traps The sheer nu for them inside of that home No one would bother to place so many if there were no treasures inside to plunder
