Caschia frowned. After he heard that Alice fell into a dream because of the starlight last night, he expressed concern to Alice. However, he did not expect that the other party grabbed his shoulders and pushed him to the chair, asking him Regarding the specific location of the scene displayed in the dream.

He compared all the places he knew well. He was a native of Elani, and in "that incident" his scope of activities was also limited to that place by himself, so he had no idea about the geographical environment of the Xios continent. After all, I still know a little bit about it.

Caschia called a more suitable person. Not only did he call his companions, he also called Olga Mithril, who could be regarded as a walking encyclopedia.

"Yeah, but I saw star velvet. That's a plant that can only be found in swamps, right? The shiny one."

"As for the Star Velvet Grass, the only place closest to here is over there. You have to go to the Blackwater Swamp in the north and south of Xios, but that place..."

Olga's tone was solemn, and he stopped mid-sentence. It seemed that he did not recommend Alice and the others to go to that place.

Alice was silent for a while. She planned to believe the scene shown to her by Starlight. Besides, this was the only clue they had.No matter how unreliable it is, it will always be helpful to take a look.

"Mr. Olga, thank you for your concern, but we still plan to go to Blackwater Swamp."

"We will take good care of each other, don't worry."

Alice's companions nodded to her, agreeing with what she said.

"Okay, okay. Show me your map, old man. Let me think about it, yes, yes, right here."

"But you have to know that that place is not a fun place. There are not only undead there, but also a piranha that can kill half of your head. In the former, those translucent shadows can kill even the most heroic dwarf warriors. There’s nothing you can do with them.”

"And the latter, never trust any wood you step on in the swamp, you never know if you're going to step on them next."

"Don't even think about fighting them. Remember, don't try to hit their heads with your weapons!"

Olga used charcoal to draw the area of ​​the swamp on Alice's map. He placed his pipe across the map, then raised his head and looked at Alice solemnly.

"The area you are about to enter is a veritable place of death. Are you sure you want to go? Even if you might die there?"

"Yes, we are going back. If I don't even dare to do this, I might as well just stay in the room and play with my hair!"

Alice patted her chest and expressed in high spirits that she was completely confident that she could bring everyone back to Ander intact.

"Great, this is what young people should be like. The spirit of adventure is a treasure more precious than the treasures buried underground! Children, come with me, I have something to introduce to you!"

Olga laughed and patted her chubby belly. He jumped off the bench and urged Alice and her companions to the hall of Hel's Hammer.

The workers in the workshop had been waiting in the hall for a long time. They spread out to both sides, revealing the huge object they had blocked behind.

Olga stood on one side of the crowd. He stretched out his hand to signal Alice to come forward. Alice walked over and then stretched her hand towards the white cloth covering the object under Olga's gaze.

With a "swish", the white cloth was pulled off by her, and her eyes were immediately attracted to what was under the white cloth.

"What is this? Oh my God, this is a carriage!?"

In front of Alice, a unique luxury carriage stopped in front of them.The exposed metal joints of the horses pulling the carriage are clearly visible. The horses’ eyes are made of smoky quartz and appear vivid due to the refraction of light.

Looking at the carport they pulled, the entire carport was spray-painted with gold and white paint, and the complex lily pattern extended from the bottom to the top, making it look much more noble than the carriage of the nobles.The joints between the car body and the car body are extremely strong. Even if they are struck downwards with a giant's hand axe, they will remain strong for several rounds.

What appeared before Alice's eyes was a piece of art created using the new technology of Hull's Hammer, and made entirely of metal and mechanical parts!

Alice and her companions dispersed, and they curiously touched the large machine. Everyone was immersed in the novelty and excitement of unfamiliar things.

Ivan Bell patted the metal horse's head. The horse lowered its head docilely. The sound from its joints reminded her that this was really a genuine mechanical horse, not an ordinary horse being hitched. metal bucket.

Caschia walked to the other side of the carriage. He knocked on the shed of the carriage and found that except for the cloth on the shed, almost all the parts made a dull metallic sound. In this era when metal was still scarce, This method of using metal on such a large area must only be possible for the Hammer of Hel led by Olga.

While the other three were checking the carriage, Alice had already gotten into the shed.She tried jumping in the carport,

The ceiling of the car was much higher than what was seen from the outside, and the floor of the carport was extremely solid. No matter how she jumped inside, the entire chassis did not shake at all.

Alice told the other companions about this discovery. Visian raised his eyebrows and followed in Alice's footsteps.

"Oh~! It would be great if our guild's carriages were like this. Hey, old man, are you interested in mass production?"

"Do you know how much effort it would take me to make a carriage like this? Don't even think about it, you brat."

"Is it really okay to give this carriage to us?"

Olga laughed, his beard twitching on his chin, he turned around and announced to everyone in his high voice.

"She is my greatest invention. You will take our place and lead her to every inch of Nirnati's land. When people ask, tell them the name of the Hammer of Hel!"

"We were not understood and were exiled! But it's different now. We want them to know that our technology is not evil, and we want to smash our achievements in their faces!"

"Cheer, it is our time from now on! Let everyone know our name! For the glory of the Hammer of Hel!"

"For the glory of the Hammer of Hel!!"

Amidst the deafening shouts, Alice and her party seemed a little out of sorts.The four of them were surrounded by the guys from the workshop, and each was forced to receive varying amounts of hugs.

"Uh, what do we do?"

"Let nature take its course, let nature take its course. If you refuse here, you know the consequences."

"Ugh, I can't breathe."

Alice prayed that the group of people could return to normal soon, and at the same time, she was thankful that she had the foresight to let Starlight stay in the room.

Speaking of Starlight, I wonder what she is doing now.Alice struggled to break free from the suffocating embrace of a giant. She straightened her clothes in a panic and turned her attention to her room on the second floor.

——TBC——

Chapter 38 Preparing for the trip

The room was filled with people, but Starlight was asked to stay where she was and not be able to go anywhere.

"I have to be a good boy so Alice will like me."

With this thought in mind, she sat on the edge of the bed and watched Alice's leaving figure.Gradually, Xingguang began to feel bored. She changed her sitting position, and her legs swayed casually beside the bed.

When cheers came from outside, she opened the door and peeked out through a gap. She saw Alice and her companions running around.

"They looked happy."

Starlight stepped out of the room with one foot, but immediately stepped back.Alice's instructions (or orders) were more important to her than anything else, so she closed the door again and retreated.

"Master (mom), when will you come back?"

Starlight lay on the pillow and looked at the closed door.

——————————————————————————————————

They finally stopped!

Alice shouted in her heart, and the workers in the workshop left the scene. Only Olga, the person in charge of the workshop, remained where she was, looking like she wanted to say something to them.

"I'll leave this carriage to you. Speaking of which, where is your arcane spirit? The little girl named Starlight."

"I asked her to wait in the room for a while. What's wrong?"

"The transformation of the arcane spirit into human form is not the last step in becoming an arcane weapon. You bring her here. Once this last step is completed, your arcane weapon will be born."

Alice showed joy when she heard that the arcane weapon could finally be made, but she was also a little worried at the same time.

"Will this have any negative impact on Starlight?"

Olga just shook his head in the face of Alice's inquiry. He said mysteriously: "Young man, the arcane spirits are not those fragile little creatures. They were originally created as weapons. The user's will changes form, and it will."

"This is their instinct. And it's not like they can't change into human form, so don't worry."

Alice was still hesitant, but fortunately her companions were able to cheer her up quickly, although the method was a bit deceptive.

"You're almost like a mom worrying about the transition, Alice. Well, now you're just like Caschia."

Caschia glanced at Vician who said this, and threw the book in his hand towards him.Visian accepted the non-threatening throwing attack with a smile and sent the book back.

"I told you that she was growing up by playing lolita, but you don't believe me."

Ivan Bell, who has a not very serious personality, will tease Alice from time to time. She stretches out her sinful hand to slap Alice on the back hard.

Alice tried her best to press down the bulging veins on her forehead, and came to the door while pushing and pushing with her companions.

After they left, Olga looked at the four people's retreating figures with nostalgia. When did he have such a noisy group of companions? Today, he is the only one who is still persisting. .

——————————————————————————————————

Alice led Starlight down the stairs. Behind her, Vician was holding his stomach. After he complained that Alice "doesn't understand people's hearts", he was immediately punished by the person involved with the iron fist.

Caschia and Ivan Bell didn't feel sorry for him, not at all. They all agreed that Vician was seeking death and deserved it.

The five of them walked downstairs and walked in front of Olga. Olga stood up and checked the starlight.Starlight has recovered very well. Yesterday's battle did not cause much damage to her, but she still maintains her human form, which makes her look a little tired.

"Arcane spirits will consume less if they remain in human form. This is why they instinctively choose a relatively stable body, which is the arcane weapon I mentioned."

Olga generally checked Starlight's physical signs while explaining to everyone.

From his mouth, Alice learned that arcane weapons can be said to be another body of the arcane spirit. When they exist as weapons, their consumption will be reduced, but they can also communicate with the user. In general, The advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Alice held Starlight's shoulder, and she made Starlight agree to Olga's suggestion. After all, it was not only beneficial to Alice, but also to Starlight.

"Go ahead, Starlight."

Starlight reluctantly left, and a few hours later, Olga came back alone.Now the starlight beside him has disappeared, replaced by a staff held in Olga's hand.

The main body of the staff was made of wood, and the top of the staff was carved into the shape of a dragon. The dragon's eyes were made of purple crystal. The crystal and the "embryo" of the starlight were both the same purple color.

The staff was slightly decorated. The white feathers and the golden ribbon hanging from the staff made the entire staff look softer. Alice took it with both hands.

The gem on the staff lit up, and Starlight's voice sounded in Alice's head at the same time.She was the only one who could hear Xingguang talking now. She asked Xingguang if he felt uncomfortable in any way, and Xingguang happily said that he was very comfortable here.

Alice breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that her worries were unnecessary, which was good. She didn't want Starlight to be treated unfairly.In her eyes, Starlight is not only a weapon, but also a person.

"Looking at your expression, Starlight should be fine. Okay, young man, show me your magic. Release a few of them and you will feel like you are reborn."

Alice did as she was told, she raised her staff, and the starlight recited the incantation along with her words, and the magic turned into a wind blade spinning in the air.This time, the speed of casting the spell was much faster than when Alice was alone, and she did not feel the loss of magic power obviously.

"It's amazing. The magic power is lost much less than before, and the magic is released much faster."

"Xingguang is helping you. If you want to thank her, go and thank her."

"But if I hope that Starlight can appear in human form, will that leave an impression on her?"

"You want it, child. If you want it, your arcane spirit can make it happen. She will do anything for you."

Olga winked at Alice, who laughed too.She put her forehead on the staff and used her consciousness to communicate with the starlight.

"Did you hear that, Starlight?"

"Well, I heard Master! Hehe, can I really take risks with Master?"

"Of course, if anyone doesn't agree, I'll hit them on the knee!"

Alice withdrew her consciousness, stood in front of her companions, and asked them if they could accept a special traveler like Starlight.The remaining three people looked at each other, and then all gave Alice a "you know what the counselor is" expression.
