Dear Broom Knight

Looking at his mother walking back again, Lowry turned to Ruthkania with a serious expression: "My friend, have you made up your mind?"

The white dragon nodded helplessly.

Lucky Pearls are indeed rare and precious.

But, if it's just one, a mage of Lowry's level definitely wouldn't be unable to obtain it.

Moreover, Lowry couldn't possibly be unable to afford it.

The reason Ruthkania took out the entire shell was to try to gain the upper hand... This thing piled together has enough temptation.

Unfortunately, Lowry has never been the type to be easily hooked.

Eh~

What Ruthkania likes most about Lowry is that he is never greedy and is very measured in his actions.

But... sometimes, not being greedy is also quite troublesome.

Like now.

She looked back again.

If she delays any longer, that artifact will hit 1000 meters deep.

Until now, the artifact hasn't dug into the groundwater layer, she's really lucky.

However, it's also possible that Lowry originally chose a place with a stable crust back then.

But below 1000 meters, it's...

Ruthkania resolutely turned her head back: "Deal!"

Then she quickly issued a hurried shout: "Eat! Pray quickly!"

Lowry smiled, directly picked up a pearl, and crushed it without hesitation.

Ruthkania glanced at him unhappily, and a pearl flew directly into her big mouth.

Lucky Pearls, truly deserving of their reputation.

Although Lowry found the sudden surge of confidence that he could succeed in anything he wanted to do a bit amusing, the feeling of being shrouded in luck still touched him greatly.

He actually occasionally experiences this kind of situation, when he is making magical items.

Every time like this, he feels that he will definitely succeed.

Of course, it's an illusion.

He still fails when he's supposed to fail.

The feeling of success is just fooling yourself... Success at the end is called confidence, failure is called having an overinflated sense of self-worth.

Therefore, Lowry quickly recovered from that complacent mood and calmly looked at the still turbulent Crescent Lake.

Then the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch... The embankment built with round logs and gravel on the lakeside had been battered beyond recognition by the waves.

The originally beautiful lakeside beach had long been submerged by the lake water.

His Crescent Lake has now become a distorted half-moon.

Especially on the opposite bank, the lake water has already flooded to the edge of the forest.

Lowry struggled to control his irritable emotions... A person who paints hates others scribbling on his canvas... He tried to keep his thoughts focused only on the artifact that was working hard and digging down.

However, he actually doesn't think that adding this little bit of luck will allow him to obtain the living environment needed for the Ice Crystal Fish to survive.

If it were that simple, which king would still have some Lucky Pearls in his possession?

This thing is just exceptionally rare, as scarce as those Fruits of Life, truly worth a fortune.

Ordinary people, including the great nobles of the territory, don't even have the opportunity to buy it.

But kings can still get their hands on one or two.

It's just that they absolutely won't use it normally.

This kind of thing that can temporarily increase a little luck, used at a crucial moment, might allow the entire country, especially their royal family, to continue, even if the use isn't as great as advertised, normal people will still make the final preparations.

Of course, the Icefield Royal Family probably only had it during the founding and the subsequent few reigns... After the inventory is gone, they shouldn't be able to buy it.

Even if they possess such expensive good things as Ice Crystal Fish.

Having no confidence is so miserable.

However, there shouldn't be too many.

It's okay to store ten or so of these things for emergencies, but any more is unnecessary.

With that much money, it's better to cultivate your own combat power.

The reason Lowry was so surprised, besides Ruthkania actually being able to possess so many... and, the most incredible thing is that the White Dragon Lady never thought about having the White Dragon King replenish the Lucky Pearls she used, she just accepted it!

Of course, it can be said that this is because the reason the two of them suffered so much and risked so much, escaping death several times, was all for Ruthkania herself.

But dragons, especially white dragons, being reasonable about money, who would believe that?

It's estimated that these two allies fought a lot about this before.

Hmm... then, the combat power displayed by the White Dragon King is a bit unreasonable.

Lowry doesn't think that Ruthkania, who fights to protect her treasures, would show mercy.

Every dragon who is polite, law-abiding, and knows their place is educated with a stick.

Ruthkania's personality of striving first and quickly retreating when she realizes she can't win must have been carefully crafted by the White Dragon King.

The reason it hasn't been exposed for so many years is entirely because, besides the White Dragon King, Ruthkania hasn't given anyone the opportunity to see this side of her.

Alright~ It can be considered that the previous generation planted the tree, and he, the later generation, is enjoying the shade.

Although waiting always makes time seem long and easily distracts people.

But Ruthkania showed her shrewdness at this time: The White Dragon Lady froze a huge ice floe and floated it around the lake.

Moreover, she asked Lowry for a large pot of shaved ice mixed with vanilla ice cream to nibble on... This is a way of eating that Ruthkania herself has created.

Although vanilla ice cream is sweet and gentle, she dislikes it not being cold enough.

The shaved ice inside is actually a bit different from the shaved ice that humans eat.

It's just that it's considered sand to the white dragon.

Anyway, Lowry would never eat that kind of ice shards.

He was holding a cup of four flavors of ice cream and slowly sipping it.

Even an artifact takes a lot of time to dig two thousand meters underground.

Therefore, it wasn't until the moon was in the middle of the sky that the artifact leaped out of the lake water.

Although Ruthkania collected it very quickly, Lowry still saw a little bit.

As he expected, it was a craftsman's gauntlet... Made of thick leather gloves covering the back of the hand and fingers, and laminated metal plates covering it, and the upper metal plate would always connect to the elbow.

Although when it comes to mining, humans' first reaction is a mining hoe or pickaxe, it seems that dwarves prefer gauntlets that increase strength and protection.

Lowry doesn't know the reason, but generally, it's all this thing.

However, dwarves have always been single-minded, and artifacts are basically axes, hammers, shields, plate armor, and gauntlets, then there are bracelets and rings... This kind of jewelry is mainly used for detection.

Of course, there are also various wine glasses that can manifest the dwarves' favorite wine, but outsiders rarely use this thing.

After all, most people don't appreciate the wine that dwarves think is delicious.

Including dragons.

Although they also make some sobering wine glasses, which are said to be particularly exquisite... but not many dwarves like to use them.

For them, it's a necessity during wartime, garbage during peacetime, and it's basically impossible to reach the artifact level.

As for their gauntlets, as long as they are artifact-level, they basically cover the entire scope of mining and prospecting work, as well as powerful strength.

Lowry~ Here you go!" A large bag came whistling.

Lowry's eyes widened suddenly, and he directly summoned his broom, rushed up, and gave the large bag a gust of wind.

The bag, impacted by the strong wind, slowly landed on the lawn in front of the castle under a Slow Fall spell that Lowry added in time.

The ground instantly sank down a section.

Oh~ Sorry, I forgot." Ruthkania's insincere voice came from the water.

Lowry, completely unwilling to pay attention to her, let out a long breath.

He had just reacted, according to common sense, the bag he gave Ruthkania could only hold 500 meters deep of soil.

Therefore, the artifact must be able to compress the soil with maximum intensity while digging it out.

Containing soil from a depth of two thousand meters, with an area of approximately 0.6 square kilometers, one can imagine how heavy this thing is.

Although Lowry, in his haste, applied a Slow Fall spell with a strength of only the fourth ring, the ground was obviously a bit unable to hold it.

Lowry, sitting on the broom, frowned... then looked thoughtfully at the Green Feather River.

'Boom!'

Ruthkania in the lake couldn't wait to jump down, probably wanting to see what she had dug out.

Of course, the reason the two of them were so relaxed was that they had already determined that they hadn't dug up a hot spring, otherwise the lake surface wouldn't have returned to calm when the artifact stopped working.

A hot spring two thousand meters underground must have a temperature of at least 800, and when it encounters the cold water above, it's guaranteed to be aggressive... It's not just a simple matter of white mist all over the sky, but also a fog that can scald people to death.

All in all, Lowry's basic needs have been met, and he doesn't care so much about whether he can get even greater benefits later.

Now, what he wants to do more is to quickly dispose of this mud before this semi-finished bag is completely destroyed.

Lowry turned to look at the second floor of the castle: "If I build a high mountain on the bank of the Green Feather River, where do you think is more suitable? Mr. Wolf King."

The Gale Wolf King stuck his big head out of the window: "What are you doing with that thing?"

Since entering Lowry's castle, the Gale Wolf King has never been willing to leave.

The food, drink, and accommodation all make the wolf so intoxicated and immersed.

This is his contractor's home, and the Wolf King lives here with confidence.

Of course, the most important reason is that the Gale Wolf Pack has not had any wolf pups born in recent years for some reason.

So who is suitable to be placed next to the lord?
