Chapter 40 Brain Overload
"The furnace never extinguishes, and honor lasts forever!"

Oh my God, old Barn's heart was struck. This was so suitable to be the slogan of their clan. Why didn't he think of it before? It was because he didn't have enough education.

This sentence is worth a toast, drink the beer, and let the white foam stain your beard.

After refilling the bottle, he wanted to see what was on that magic device.

Eight young people sat around the machine, each with a chessboard-like illusion and a row of cards in front of them, as well as some scattered information.

It's a bit like wizard chess. Barn doesn't like that kind of game. It's too brain-intensive, and as long as there is a slight difference in level, there is no possibility of winning. It's not exciting at all.

Soon he found the source of the sound. There were six dwarves on the chessboard of a girl.

Good taste.

Although he didn't like human women very much, they were 1.6 meters tall and weighed less than 160 kilograms, their waists were thinner than their legs, and they had no beards. They were too thin.

But choosing dwarves to fight shows vision, as dwarves are always the best warriors.

In addition to the six dwarves, there are also two orcs. It doesn’t matter. As long as they don’t have pointy ears, the dwarves can fight alongside any warrior.

And at the front row, a strong warrior held a heavy hammer.

Oh! Look at that handsome red beard, this must be Sartre the Crucible, exactly like the picture book he had read, and that slogan suits Sartre very well, and also suits him very well.

The general gameplay is easy to understand. You spend gold coins to refresh cards. You can buy cards to summon chess pieces. When you have three, you can upgrade the chess pieces. You can also equip your chess pieces with magic equipment.

When a certain number of chess pieces have the same profession and race, there will be additional effects. When the time is up, players will match up in pairs, and their chess pieces will automatically start fighting.

Dwarves can strengthen their equipment, while warriors can improve their armor and attack power.

It was very suitable for a dwarf warrior. Barn was intrigued and took another gulp of wine.

On the chessboard, Satyr swung his sledgehammer and crushed a drow that was running around.

"Oh!" Barn cheered with the young dwarves. This was how dwarf warriors fought. Those drow hid in the shadows and attacked like flies. If they really fought, it would be a matter of one hammer.

So exciting!

Much more exciting than wizard chess.

Wisdom, gambling, passionate battles, plus a little bit of luck, is there any more perfect entertainment than this? I must find out where this thing came from. There must be one in the clan, no, many!

A giant dragon appeared on the chessboard, vivid and lifelike.

To be honest, Barn doesn't hate dragons. Although dragons are greedy, which race is not greedy? At most, they are greedy for different things.

Those pointed-eared people keep saying they have no desires, but when they see a precious musical instrument, it's just like seeing their ancestors.

At least dragons are open about their greed, but other creatures may resort to very shady means to express their greed.

Can the dwarf warrior defeat the dragon?

A group of dwarves huddled together, nervously watching everything that happened on the chessboard.

Twenty seconds later, the dragon fell down.

"Oh!" There was another cheer, the wooden wine glasses banged against each other, and then there were gulps of water one after another.

"I'm done!" A young dwarf was the first to turn the glass over.

"Ha! Give this kid another drink, it's mine. If I were fifty years younger, you guys definitely wouldn't be able to drink more than me!"

After a few drinks, the atmosphere among the dwarves became more and more heated, and they even roared rhythmically behind Elsa to support the dwarf warrior on the chessboard to take the lead.

In the game, there is only one opponent left.

"we are the champion!"

"Dwarves are always the best!"

The countdown ended and the enemy attacked. Barn could tell at a glance that the enemy was the most annoying pointy-eared coward who only dared to hold a bow and arrow from a distance.

The furnace will crush them!

However, the expected scene did not appear. As soon as the battle started, a whirlwind blew the Sat up.

what is this?
It’s the elves’ trick, it must be the elves’ trick!
A few seconds later, Satir landed on the ground, slowly accumulated magic power, and finally used his skills, but all the other warriors were killed, leaving only Satir struggling to hold on. He was completely unable to move due to countless controls, and died before he could even swing his hammer.

"Impossible, this is impossible! How could the great dwarf warrior lose to the pointy-eared one? It's all a trick. If it happens again, the dwarf will definitely win!" Barn roared in dissatisfaction.

"Why don't you come." Elsa looked very impatient.

Dwarves never turn down a challenge, especially in front of other dwarves.

He stroked his red beard and sat down majestically in the seat left by Elsa.

Touching the surface of the magic device, he knew it was not made of ordinary material. Such good material had such poor workmanship that the craftsman who made it was not even qualified to be his apprentice.

After a little adjustment, the game officially begins.

For the first time in his life, he felt that the night passed so quickly. Three hours, two eighths, two sevenths, and one sixth.

Baines admitted that there was something to the game.

Fortunately, he has a thick beard and dark skin, otherwise it would be obvious that his face is already red.

Especially after Elsa said "it's a mess" contemptuously.

He is the best craftsman in the clan and the second smartest mind after the chief elder.

But this is the chance to avenge the past.

Although he still has nine drops of blood, he now has a two-star Sater in his hand. The quality of the lineup is not high, but the bonds are complete.

The most important thing is that there is still a dragon egg that will hatch in the next round.

According to the description, dragon eggs can drop items of extremely high value.

I must survive this round, I must survive...

The brave and fearless dwarf began to pray, a rare act.

Sartre, hold on!
The dwarf hero still fell, but the opponent only had one chess piece left.

Attack coming, health -8.

"call--"

Barn breathed a sigh of relief and held on. Now it was his turn.

The dragon egg shattered, revealing a pile of gold coins and several pieces of equipment.

Refresh, search, oops, missed one, I need this one, I need this one, refresh, eh, do you want this one?

Beads of sweat oozed out of Baines' forehead, and time was decreasing second by second.

He was anxious.

Who else should be in this lineup? Why is there an extra vacant position? Yes, there is also equipment. Who should I give this equipment to...

Time returns to zero.

The opponent appears.

It's over, it's over.

He hammered the magic device in frustration.

In an instant, all illusions disappeared.

"Honestly, I've already opened the dragon egg, so shouldn't I be the winner of this round?" Barn said this in only one-third of his usual volume.

He seldom lies, but somehow he couldn't help it this time. This thing is magical.

The other players were scratching their heads anxiously.

"You broke the magic device. Do you know how expensive it is?"

He knew very well that no one knew the prices of various materials better than him, but in his opinion, the workmanship of this magic device was worth deducting money.

"I'll just fix it."

"Just fix it if you say so. Who are you? Do you know how many people worked hard to make this thing?"

"That only shows that those people are not good enough. I am Barn Furnace. There is no magic device that I cannot repair."

"If you say so, then it is? The one next to him is Sartre?"

"How can I prove it?"

"Not only do we need to repair it, we also need to shrink it and turn it into an independent machine. I heard that a furnace can turn decay into something magical. It's best if you don't use too many precious materials."

"Of course." Baines didn't even think about it.

"Okay, then sign the contract."

After Aisha and her group left, Barn's assistant said to him, "Teacher, I think they are setting up a trap to provoke you to come out."

"Of course I know that," Baines smiled nonchalantly, "but this magic device is really interesting, isn't it? Even without the contract, I would still improve it. Such a fun thing shouldn't be hindered by bloated craftsmanship."

As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves and started to take it apart.

The source of the problem was quickly found: a deliberately tampered part with an envelope next to it.

When I opened it, there was a check and a letter addressed to the respected Mr. Barn Rodel Furnace.

"Interesting guy," Baines turned to the apprentices and assistants behind him and said, "Whoever planned this has a very bad temper with me."
