I was a knight in the Middle Ages
Chapter 88: Dwarf Gurus
"Are you the weapon master dwarf Gurus?" Fattam asked excitedly. Fattam seemed to be very interested in the heavy armor and weapons here, as can be seen from the scene of dealing with the mechanical behemoth Tyranny just now.
"I'm just an old dwarf, not a weapon master." The dwarf Gulus was vague, obviously not wanting to admit his identity.
"Then why are they looking for you?" Fattam discovered the problem from the conversation just now. The bandits were targeting the old dwarf.
"No matter how strong a person is, he cannot resist the ravages of time. I am old and cannot even lift a hammer." The old dwarf coughed twice, hunched over, and looked very old.
"No, Dad is in good health. There is no weapon or equipment that he can't defeat?" Little Gulus crawled out from under the Mechanical Turtle and explained loudly.
"You little bastard, do you want to tire me to death? I'm over a hundred years old and just want to enjoy myself for a few years. Don't you want me to take it easy for a few years?" The dwarf Gulus picked up his walking stick and chased after little Gulus. The two of them didn't look like they were over a hundred years old when they were chasing each other.
"I know I was wrong, Dad, please don't hit me." Little Gulus was beaten black and blue, and was actually carried back by the old dwarf by the clothes.
"How's Ba Xia doing?" The old dwarf was most concerned about the mechanical turtle.
"Dad, I activated Ba Xia, but there is no response at all. I can't stretch out my limbs, and I can't turn my body over." Little Gulus was obviously very concerned about the situation of the mechanical turtle, and his tone was full of worry.
"How's the fire?" the old dwarf spoke again. The fire is the heart of Baxia and the core of all energy.
"The fire is still there, but it has become smaller in size. It looks like it may go out at any time." Little Gulus's face was full of worry.
"Well, I understand. I already know the reason." The old dwarf took a puff of his pipe, coughed twice, and his expression looked a little solemn.
Fattam saw the Gurus father and son chasing and playing with each other. He felt sad that time had passed, but he was still as skilled as ever before. At the same time, he was full of respect for this master blacksmith.
"Old sir, can I ask you some questions?" Fattam asked respectfully.
The dwarf Gurus stopped and turned to look at Fatam.
"Are you going to ask me about those bandits?"
The dwarf Gurus was not bothered by the bandits. Instead, he was very curious about Fatam who asked him, "Young human warrior, what are you fighting for? For the illusory glory?"
After listening to the words of the dwarf Gurus, Fatam fell into deep thought. In this chaotic world, everyone is trying their best to survive.
Once upon a time, she worked hard for the honor of her family, but unfortunately, fate played a trick on her. She was just a girl and was often ostracized by the family for this. Unexpectedly, she was ruthlessly abandoned by the family in the end.
Now, Fattam's goal is to protect Alpha, his companions, and finally the weak.
Fatam meets the dwarf Gurus, and he seems to be asking himself the same question.
"I am different from those bandits," Fattam replied. "Bandits are for their own selfish interests, while I am for the protection of the people I care about."
"In fact, protection is also for myself. When I see weak people being harmed, an uncontrollable anger will surge in my heart. I used to wonder why the feelings in my heart were so strong, until I found my inner courage and realized that these feelings were the voice of my own heart. I want to protect those weak people because they are who I used to be."
"Young human warrior, your answer makes sense." The dwarf Gurus said with satisfaction, "Protecting innocent people is protecting your past self."
The dwarf Gurus couldn't help but look at Fatam with admiration. Wasn't this young warrior the same as he used to be? The dwarf Gurus couldn't help but think back to his past years, when he was also a young warrior, brave and full of enthusiasm.
During the battle on the mountain top, he found a fire seed, which was originally the heart of the ancient mechanical giant turtle in front of him, Baxia. Unexpectedly, this fire seed was not possessed by Baxia, but became his weapon to fight against tyranny. The dwarf Gurus used this fire seed to create countless sophisticated weapons, and eventually became the winner of the battle on the mountain top, successfully overthrowing the rule of the evil dynasty.
However, now that Gurus is old, his strength and stamina are declining. He often wonders why Baxia did not absorb the fire, but instead passed it on to a dwarf like him.
Now, Gurus finally understood that the reason why Baxia passed on the fire to humans was because humans have infinite potential and creativity, as well as firm beliefs and selfless spirit. And Fatham exudes this power.
Unfortunately, it was too late when he realized it. The subordinates who followed him at the beginning had actually passed away, and he was the only one left to survive. In the end, the dwarf returned the fire to Ba Xia, because the world needed more protective power.
"Child, do you have any questions for me to answer?"
"Yes, sir." Fattam looked sincere, "I want to learn how to make weapons and equipment from you."
The dwarf Gurus listened to Fattam's request, smiled and nodded.
"Making weapons and equipment is not an easy task," Gurus said frankly. "It requires patience and perseverance. For a girl, it is a tiring, dirty and difficult job."
"But if you really want to learn, I will do my best to help you and teach you my skills."
"I will work harder and study harder, and I promise not to let you down." Fattam was moved by Gurus' sincerity, and his heart was filled with gratitude and joy.
Under Gurus's instruction, Fatam began to learn how to forge weapons and armor. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the properties and uses of various materials, he mastered different forging techniques and processing methods.
By carefully observing every movement and step of the Gurus, Fattam tried to grasp every detail in order to better understand and master these skills.
With day-to-day practice, Fatam gradually demonstrated his intelligence and extraordinary skills. He was good at cleverly combining different materials to create weapons and armor with unique style and practicality. But these achievements were not achieved until many years later.
"Lord Alpha, we have searched the town three times and found no living person." Monkey and others searched the town repeatedly but did not find a single survivor.
"Prepare firewood and let them rest in peace." In order to avoid any further trouble, Alpha decided to leave the town immediately after dealing with the funeral.
"We are preparing to leave the town of Baras. What are your plans, two of you?" Alpha looked at the two dwarves.
"Dad, what should we do? Baxia is unable to move at all now." Little Gulus's face was full of worry.
After the old dwarf's explanation, little Gulus realized that the previous battle had consumed most of Baxia's already limited fire, and now even basic movement has become a luxury.
"What is coming will eventually come, and misfortune cannot be avoided. We have to leave here." The old dwarf has lived in seclusion in Balas for thirty years. He usually just makes farm tools and repairs tools. He never thought that he would have to continue to work hard in his old age.
"Lord Alpha, we will follow you from now on. I hope you don't look down on us." The old dwarf saw that Alpha was the real boss here.
"It's okay, but our journey has been difficult and dangerous. If possible, I can arrange for you to go to a relatively safe place." It has been a long and arduous journey. If it weren't for the order of the Holy See, Alpha would never have come to Fatalia to carry out the mission.
"Where is the safe place? I believe that Lord Alpha will give us a relatively safe environment and will not abandon us." The old dwarf noticed the atmosphere of the Alpha team. There was no indifference and calculation between the members like in other teams. There was more peace and protection. The old dwarf had experienced the ups and downs of life and no longer had the passion of the past.
"Okay, as long as you follow us for one day, I will protect your safety!" Alpha's emotions did not fluctuate much, and he did not make any requests, but the others were very excited, especially Fattam.
"I found that your armor and weapons are very ordinary. I can use Ba Xia's heavy armor to make a batch of weapons and equipment for you." Ba Xia's core fire is no longer enough to make this mechanical turtle operate, so Gulus is ready to make use of the waste.
"Thank you so much, Gurus." Alpha knew this, but he just had no way to change it.
"Lord Alpha, you can call me old dwarf, old blacksmith or Lao Gu. Oh, by the way. Lord Alpha, your weapon is very special and it seems to be unopened." The old dwarf could see that Alpha's weapon was extraordinary, but it seemed to be a semi-finished product.
"This Mo Dao was made by Master Dongfang, but unfortunately he died before he could accomplish his mission. He passed away before the weapon was finished, and it was never completed." It was a pity for Alpha to hold the bladeless sword. Alpha was not an expert in swordsmanship, and he could not reach the state of being better than a blade without a blade.
"Okay, if Lord Alpha believes me, I can give it a try." Gurus no longer has the passion he had in the past, otherwise it would not be just a try, but I will definitely be able to do it.
"Then the weapon is handed over to you. Don't worry about it. This weapon with a blade or without a blade has little effect on me." The sharpness of the sword has a great impact on ordinary soldiers, but it does not have much effect on masters.
"Dad, are you going to tear down Ba Xia? He is my partner, I won't allow it." Unexpectedly, the first person to object was little Gulus. Little Gulus had been with Ba Xia since he was a child. Rather than saying that Ba Xia was a tool, it would be better to say that it was little Gulus's partner and relative.
"Ba Xia has lost its fire and can't move at all. If it doesn't disintegrate, we can't take it away. You can choose to stay and let the bandits take it away, or you can choose to let it leave with us." The old dwarf saw things very clearly and hit the nail on the head.
"But it's my companion, I don't want it." Little Gulus firmly objected.
"It just accompanies us in a different way. If we find a way to awaken the fire, we can rebuild a new Ba Xia." Of course, the old dwarf didn't want to disintegrate Ba Xia, but there was really no other way.
"That kind of Ba Xia is not the original Ba Xia at all. I don't want it." Little Gulus objected angrily and rushed into the body of the mechanical turtle Ba Xia at a very fast speed.
"Lord Alpha, there seems to be a large group of people approaching from the east." Suddenly, Lilia sounded the alarm.
Little Gurus' voice became weaker and weaker. He was very reluctant to leave. Baxia was his best friend. They grew up together and experienced many ups and downs together. They had a very deep relationship. Now, he had to make a difficult choice, should he stay or leave? He felt very confused.
Lilia reported the emergency: "They are already near us, what should we do, Lord Alpha?"
If it were normal times, Ba Xia would stand up and use various tactics to resist the enemy and protect the old blacksmith and Little Gulus, but now, he was like a dead body, lying quietly in the middle of the battlefield. Little Gulus felt very helpless and didn't know what to do to protect himself and others.
"How many people are there? We are going to evacuate the town from the west." Alpha acted quickly.
"There are about twenty people, and there are still five kilometers to go." With the dim moonlight, Lilia couldn't see clearly.
"Okay, let's set off immediately." Alpha made a prompt decision.
"Old blacksmith, take little Gulus away quickly. We have to leave now." The situation was urgent and there was no time. Everyone picked up their weapons and set off immediately.
"Here I come." The old blacksmith quickly jumped onto the body of the Ba Xia and opened the protective cover.
"I won't leave. I want to stay and live and die with Baxia." Little Gulus stubbornly chose to stay.
"Lord Alpha, the enemy is less than two kilometers away from us. The situation is critical." Lilia's tone was full of anxiety.
"Lord Alpha, you go first. We will stay in the Ba Xia body. The enemy cannot open it." The old dwarf knew the urgency of the situation. Now was not the time to joke.
"You hide in the body and don't come out. We won't leave." Alpha knew that now was not the time to be sentimental and he had to make a decisive decision.
"I'll go in first. Lord Alpha, you guys hurry up." The old dwarf got into the machine and urged again.
"Let's go west." Alpha and others had just stepped out of the town when the enemy's cavalry shattered the tranquility.
"Search carefully! Don't let any one go!" The visitor was an acquaintance of Papua. In order to avoid sneak attacks and prevent repeating the same mistakes, the war horses were equipped with thick armor.
"Sir, the town has been completely destroyed and is in ruins. All the corpses are piled in the central square and have been burned to ashes." A bandit reported respectfully.
"Sir, a group of people fled the town to the west." Another bandit brought new news.
"Everyone attack, we must capture them!" Papua thought that the target this time was that group of people, and prepared to attack in full force.
"Sir, we found a strange big iron lump next to the reservoir."
