543 Valiant Gnome” (1/2)
At the Blacksmith Shop in Eternal Kingdom.
”Ping, ping, pang, pang… ping, ping, pang, pang!”
At the large furnace of the Industrial Area, many gamers were hammering on metal as they infused Mana to accelerate the forging processing.
Many of them were half-naked and drenched in sweat.
Behind the gamers was their teacher, Simba.
He was a senior-level employee of Eternal Kingdom. He was previously a temporary employee, but he performed well, so Sherlock promoted him to a permanent employee. Simba also recommended his cousin Mufasa to work in Eternal Kingdom.
The cousins were sitting by the furnace while chatting like those chattering gamers.
”Moroes was acting in a movie today. Have you seen it?”
Simba turned his body and put a metal stick into the smelting pool to heat it up. Then, he put the red-heated metal stick into his mouth. It emitted sizzling sounds and white smoke rings.
”I took a look, but there were too many Underground Spiders, so I only took a quick look before leaving,” Mufasa said as he shivered at the thought.
”Do you know why there are so many Spiders? Because they captured the daughter of the Spider Queen. According to my experience, the small Spider will become the new Spider Queen. The scene was spectacular,” Simba said as he shook his head.
Mufasa was full of admiration for Simba. Since he came to Eternal Kingdom, his previously locked spirit of adventure was being invigorated. However, he was cowardly, so he didn't dare to adventure.
Mufasa sharpened his small wooden knife slowly. After the number of gamers increased dramatically, he seldom did carpentry. Most of his time was spent teaching the gamers cooking and carpentry skills.
”I heard they were shooting a movie. I wonder what it's going to be like,” Mufasa said curiously.
”Are you interested? I'm not interested in what they're shooting,” Simba said with a smile.
As for Mufasa, he looked in the direction of the gamers with a sense of longing as he said, ”I'm full of envy for adventurers.”
…
”Devils from Hades, I order you to vanish in the name of the Holy Lord!” a Human who was covered by Sacred Light shouted at Moroes.
Moroes, who was dressed in a dashing robe, wielded his Short Sword. He was unaffected by the Sacred Light as he leaped up high. Then he slashed the Short Sword at the Human, whose blood splattered before he fell to the ground.
”Good, this scene is completed. We'll now prepare for the Great Dragon scene.”
Oscar stood up and waved his hand. Then he shouted to the Human gamers who were queuing up behind him, ”You may go. I don't need you anymore.”
”Please let me appear in the movie. I have queued for a long time!”
”Why don't you let Moroes kill a few more Grand Priests to showcase his bravery?”
”Yes, yes, just like cutting down grass. I'm willing to be the grass for Moroes to cut.”
”You're cracking me up. You'll do anything to appear in the movie.”
The gamers of Eternal Kingdom and Victoria City used their common Mandarin to speak happily. Moroes didn't understand their language. He was curious how the warriors of Eternal Kingdom found the Humans who had the Power of Sacred Light. However, Moroes didn't dare ask.
Eggface was led by a gamer to the set. Eggface hugged his arms and looked unhappily at the gamers as he asked, ”Did you ask Lord Sherlock to get me to act in the movie? Don't you know that I'm busy every day?”
Though Eggface was unhappy, the gamers weren't afraid of the Dragon Aura. They weren't afraid of Sherlock's dominant aura, so why would they be afraid of a Black Dragon?
They were treating Eggface's words as a normal NPC conversation.
”Greet… greetings…”
The gamers weren't afraid of Eggface, but Moroes was extremely fearful. Eggface was a Black Dragon. Even if he was a young Dragon, his aura wasn't something a Gnome could bear.
He had no choice. The gamers who were joking with the Grand Priests and unafraid of the Black Dragon weren't to be trifled with. If he didn't listen to them, he might be killed. Moroes only wanted to save his marriage. He didn't expect that his life would be in danger.
The gamers noticed that Eggface was full of anger, so they fawned on him until he was gleaming.
”Prepare for the camera roll!” Oscar shouted.
…
The large Black Dragon swooped down as loud Dragon shrieks reverberated in the wilderness.
Moroes was still wearing his dashing long robe as he climbed on a rock and shouted at the diving Eggface, ”You evil Black Dragon, I'm not afraid of you. I'm going to use your fresh blood to bathe!”
Moroes was trembling, but he managed to speak the dialog.
The large Dragon landed before Moroes and bellowed, causing Moroes to wobble and kneel down.
”Cut! Cut!” Oscar screamed as he charged out and glared at Moroes.
