Dark Light: Magic Betrayed

After class, Neville rushed out of the classroom holding the shard of his crucible. Although Espina had met Professor Gimli, she didn't know where he was specifically.

Espina saw Professor Stepi sorting out his teaching materials. Espina held her crucible and came to Professor Stepi and asked: "Professor Stepi, where can I find Professor Gimli?"

?" Professor Stepi stopped and thought for a moment and replied: "He should be at the blacksmith shop to the east of the castle now. After all, that's where he lives. You should be able to find him if you go there now." "Okay, thank you, Shi.

Professor Tepi."

After saying that, Espina left the classroom with her cauldron and textbook in her arms, and came to the school map in the castle hall.

Espoo looked at the map carefully. There were small dots moving around on the map, and names were marked on the dots. Espina saw that one dot said Boshilai, and another dot said

Looking at Principal Epps Damon, they are now in the principal's office. Espina guessed that it was about Mr. Hemu at noon.

Espina slid the map with her hand and came to the east side of the castle. She found that Professor Gimli was indeed at the blacksmith shop. Espina was a little confused why there was a blacksmith shop in the school? Maybe students often broke things.

At this time, Espuna noticed that someone had taken a photo of herself. She turned around and looked. It was Feisali. Feisali asked curiously: "Espina, what are you doing here? Let's go have dinner together."

Esporna shook her head and said: "I'm sorry, Fesali, I have to go find Professor Gimli. Only he can take out my potion when it becomes solid."

After saying that, she showed Feisali the crucible she was holding. Feisali looked over and saw a spoon standing straight in the solidified potion.

Fesali chuckled and said: "Okay, Espina. By the way, do you want me to accompany you? My afternoon class is taught by Professor Gimli. He must be in the blacksmith shop now." Espina.

After hearing this, Na nodded and took Feisali's arm and said, "Okay, let's go together. Let's have dinner together when it's done."

On the way, Espuna asked Feisali curiously: "Feisali, what course is Professor Gimli teaching?" Feisali smiled and said: "Item magic embedding and magic spell tattooing." "What are you doing today?"

What are you studying?”

Feisali thought for a while and said: "How to attach a magic spell to an object is a very confusing lesson anyway." "That's it."

Fesali suddenly said excitedly: "Did you know? Professor Gimli is a dwarf." Espina nodded and said: "Yes, I know. He gave me a dragon saddle in the morning, and he surrounded me

It’s really amazing that the carved dragon can be made into such a suitable dragon saddle after three turns.”

Fesali continued: "In our south, there are many dwarf craftsmen. Their forging skills are unmatched by any species, including elves."

Espina asked curiously: "Why are there so many dwarves in your hometown? There are no elves in my hometown, and I have never even seen them." Fesali tilted her head and looked at Espina and said with a smile:

"Because of the Hongyan Sand."

"What is Hongyansha?"

"A kind of sand that can emit high temperatures all year round, so it always emits red light. This kind of sand can keep the temperature of the blacksmith furnace going all year round, so the dwarves like it very much."

Espina asked curiously: "Why, I heard that Professor Gimli is always in the blacksmith shop?" Fesali smiled and said: "I heard that he attends classes, sleeps and even eats in the blacksmith shop." "Ah.

?”

The two walked through long corridors one after another and came to a blacksmith shop on the city wall inside the school. At this time, Espina saw the door of the blacksmith shop open, and then saw the student named Neville coming out of the door.

Walked out.

I saw him jumping happily holding the crucible he had repaired. When he saw Feisali, he suddenly froze on the spot and stared directly at Feisali. Feisali hid in the Ace in embarrassment.

Poona's back.

When Esporna saw this, she glared at Neville fiercely. Only then did Neville react and realize that he was rude. Then he touched his head awkwardly and bowed, saying: "I'm sorry, I'm rude." Then he left straight away.

But I still look back from time to time.

Espina looked at Nivell's back with a tone full of contempt and said, "Weird man." Seeing him walking away, Fesali walked out from behind Espina and said, "It's really annoying."

Uneasy. Espuña, leave him alone." Espuña nodded and then walked to the door of the blacksmith shop and knocked on the door.

At this time, I heard a clanging sound coming from the blacksmith shop.

"Come in!"

Esperna and Fesali pushed open the door and entered. At this time, they saw Professor Gimli wearing a blacksmith's uniform and making something. Then they said without looking back: "What can I do?"

Espina said respectfully: "Hello, Professor Gimli. My potion has solidified in the crucible, and Professor Steppi said you can help me."

Professor Gimli used iron tongs to put the forged object into the water, then threw the hammer in his hand and said: "It's the crucible again! Did Professor Steppy's students blow up the crucible shop?" Espina didn't know.

How to answer, I can only smile awkwardly.

Professor Gimli took the crucible in Esperna's hand and looked at it, then suddenly said, "Is this yours? Where did you find it?"

Esperna was a little confused as to why Professor Gimli had such a reaction, but she still told the truth: "I found it in the corner of a crucible shop. It was covered with dust and cobwebs."

Professor Gimli shook his head and said with a tone full of regret: "This is a crucible in the heart of a mountain, and it turns out... oh, what a pity."

Espina asked in confusion: "What is the Mountain Heart Crucible?"

Professor Gimli said: "Ms. Dumplinxion, have you heard of the story of Smaug and the Lonely Mountain?" Espina nodded and said: "I heard my grandfather said it. Professor Gimli, you are still called

I love Spooner."

Professor Gimli nodded and said: "Ms. Espina, after the Heart of the Mountain gem was destroyed, it became countless fragments. Its ability to confuse people disappeared, but the fragments still retained a lot of magic power, so the dwarves used the fragments to

Many weapons, armors or tools were made, and the remaining fragments that could not be integrated were made into five crucibles."

Espina looked at the crucible in disbelief and asked: "So, what magical ability does this crucible have?" Professor Gimli thought for a while and said: "It is stronger, extremely durable, and can make the material more durable.

Stablize."

Espora's face was full of surprise when she heard this.

Professor Gimli placed the crucible on the table, then took out a strange hammer and began to gently tap the solidified medicine in the crucible. Espina saw that the hammer had the same blue agate stone as her crucible. She thought to herself

Could it be that it was also made by the Heart of the Mountain?

At this time, two pictures on the wall attracted Esperna. One picture showed Professor Gimli, who still had a thick red beard on his face but looked younger. The other picture also had a thick beard on his face.

He even tied his beard into the same braid as his hair, but he looked pretty.

Esporna asked: "Professor Gimli? Is the picture on the wall your father?"

Professor Gimli turned his head to look at Espina in surprise, then looked at the photo on the wall and said angrily, "That's my wife!" Then he turned angrily and continued to hit the solidified medicine in the crucible with a hammer.

.

Fesali touched Esperna's arm gently with her elbow, then leaned over and whispered: "Female dwarves also have beards."

Espina suddenly remembered Ms. Gran. It is true that female dwarves also have beards. She said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Professor Gimli. I hope you can forgive my ignorance." Professor Gimli did not look back, but sighed.

He took a breath and said: "This

It's not your fault, after all, during the First Magic War, many dwarves were gone. In fact, female dwarves will tie their beards and hair in the same way, and you can tell the difference if you know this." Espina suddenly realized.

: "Oh, so that's it."

After coming over for a while, Professor Gimli picked up the crucible and turned around and said: "Okay, Espoo, the crucible is ready." Then he handed the crucible in his hand to Espina.

He continued: "You are lucky, the potion did not explode after solidification." Espina took the crucible and said: "Thank you, Professor Gimli." Professor Gimli waved his hand and said: "You're welcome, it's just a joke.

, do you have anything else to do? If nothing else, go out first, I still have to work."

Espina nodded and said: "Thank you, Professor Gimli, we are leaving first." Professor Gimli did not speak but lowered his head and started building things again.

Espina curiously looked at the things he built that were neither square nor round in the east and west, and asked curiously: "Professor Gimli, what are you building?" Professor Gimli said without raising his head: "For the Magic Cup

Forge battle armor for your mount. Close the door when you go out."

So Espina and Fesali looked at each other and left the blacksmith shop.
