Apart from food and drinks, Konoheim was most interested in the magic research laboratory of Sofia and Moray in Blackstone Castle.
In a way, Konoheim and Moray might be the same kind of people, but they were also subtly different.
They both liked unknown things, but unlike Moray, Konoheim did not want to devote his energy to the development and research of new things.
Just being an observer and learning about the unknown information from a third party was enough to satisfy Konoheim.
Now, Konoheim was a guest in the Blackstone Magic Laboratory, which was one of the most amazing places in the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Sofia and Moray were responsible for entertaining him, because the knowledgeable Brass Dragon was always able to come up with solutions from a very special perspective.
So Moray was very welcoming to him at the moment.
Because of him, the magic research projects of Sofia and Moray had already solved many difficult problems ahead of schedule.
Since the jelly had achieved extraordinary results, Elise’s burden also increased with more tasks on her shoulders.
At Otto’s request, she could drop all other work and devote herself fully to the development of new desserts.
Of course, Otto also searched for his own scarce dessert knowledge from his previous life, providing Elise, who unexpectedly was quite talented in this area, with some ideas.
For example, things like caramel pudding…
Perhaps in the future, her efforts would bring more benefits to the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Since it was temporarily confirmed that Konoheim would not pose any threat to the Land of the Soaring Dragon, the temporarily imprisoned Black Rose regained her freedom.
Too lazy to deal with the human woman with a resentful face, even though she still had a lot to say to Otto.
Now Otto had to entertain the visiting Black Iron Dwarf Dain again.
For some reason, the Land of the Soaring Dragon seemed to be bustling recently, with one visitor arriving after another.
In the Council Chamber, Otto met the Black Iron Dwarf who had been away for a while.
From his expression, he didn’t seem to be in a very good mood.
Reasonably, having previously gained all the inheritance of the Red Copper Dwarves and now having a large number of Burrowing Worms to help build underground tunnels.
It should have been double happiness, so why did this Black Iron Dwarf look so worried?
“What happened?”
Otto showed a somewhat puzzled expression.
Dain gave a bitter smile and then said, “There is news about the escaped Red Copper Dwarves…”
Otto lowered his head thoughtfully, thinking about it, it seemed that those Red Copper Dwarves had indeed fled towards the Mountain Dwarf territory at the time.
“What, are the Mountain Dwarves willing to help them get revenge?”
“That’s not it…”
“Then what are you worrying about?”
Dain took a deep breath and sighed, “Those red-bearded ones are dead, they were killed by the Mountain Dwarves!”
“What?”
This was something Otto hadn’t expected at all. He originally thought that since the Red Copper Dwarves would flee to the Mountain Dwarves, they must have some connection.
He was even prepared for the remnants of the Red Copper Dwarves to lead the Mountain Dwarves’ reinforcements back to Red Copper Castle.
But never in his wildest dreams did he think that the usually friendly Mountain Dwarves, who were even polite to his Hawkman envoys, would do such a thing.
“Could it be that they are trying to show goodwill to us?”
After a long while, Otto came to such a conclusion.
In response, Dain shook his head: “We initially thought the same, then we sent an envoy to inquire.”
“And what happened?”
“The Black Iron Dwarf acting as the envoy came back as if he was sleepwalking, drowsy all day, unable to answer any questions.
Then my brother, King of Black Iron Ebik, couldn’t stand it and kicked him, and he immediately woke up.”
Hearing this, Otto ventured to ask, “Was it charm magic?”
“The elders in the clan think so too. This is enough to show the attitude of the
Mountain Dwarves. Those damn bastards are declaring war on the Black Iron Dwarves!”
As Dain continued speaking, his mood became more and more agitated.
It sounded right, but if it was a declaration of war, there must be some motive.
If they had sheltered the exiles of the Red Copper Dwarves, that would have been understandable. However, they first killed the Red Copper Dwarves who sought refuge with them and then showed hostility towards the Black Iron Dwarves.
What on earth had come over these Mountain Dwarves, who usually hid in the mountains and minded their own business? “I think they might have become desperate!”
“Desperate?”
Dain revealed a grin, “Because we got the Fire Forging Skill of the Red Copper
Dwarves, as well as their Fire Forge Furnace.”
These were things Otto had never heard of before. As Dain continued to explain, Otto quickly understood what these things represented.
Simply put, with the Fire Forging Skill and the Fire Forge Furnace in Red Copper Castle, legendary items can be forged.
As long as the materials and the craftsmen’s skills are sufficient.
Dain continued, “The Mountain Dwarves know how to enchant weapons and equipment, and if they combine it with the Fire Forging Skill, not to mention legendary items, the success rate of forging high-quality magic items will increase dramatically.
Most of the Red Copper Dwarves who fled to the Mountain Dwarf territories were elite soldiers, and although they might know forging, they certainly had no access to the Fire Forging Skill.
Upon learning that they had no use, the Mountain Dwarves tore off their hypocritical masks and killed them all.”
It sounded reasonable, but these were all Dain’s speculations.
Otto called for Saru and was about to order him to send Lizardman scouts or Hawkmen to the Mountain Dwarves when another Black Iron Dwarf rushed in in panic.
He seemed to have hurried over from the Black Iron Field without stopping.
“What’s the matter?”
Dain looked at the newcomer with a bit of displeasure. Even for the rough-natured Black Iron Dwarves, this frantic behavior was a bit excessive.
But the new Black Iron Dwarf had no time to apologize to Dain and Otto, and hurriedly said, “The Mountain…The Mountain Dwarves have declared war on us. Now their army is heading towards Red Copper Castle, targeting the Fire
Forge Furnace.”
Hearing this, Dain and Otto looked at each other, both somewhat speechless.
Obviously, Dain’s speculation had turned into reality, but the opponent’s actions were too fast, not at all in line with the usual laid-back external image of the Mountain Dwarves.
No matter what, it had happened, and talking more was of no use. Dain, who had just arrived not long ago, was immediately preparing to leave.
Before he left, Otto promised, “If anything unexpected happens, contact me immediately with the Communication Scale.”
Dain smiled wearily, “Of course, my friend, we are always on the same side!”
