Set up a funeral service team in a foreign land

"Dean Flamel's carving knife?!"

Xi Sui'an was shocked. Every alchemist must have a most handy carving knife, which is as important as a sword to a swordsman. How come his carving knife is among the dwarves?

Daniel, the cemetery singer, subconsciously tightened the harp in his arms when he heard this. The carving knife was very important to the alchemist, just like the lyre was to him. He looked in the direction of the sound, but saw nothing.

"?"

Daniel paused, looked down subtly, and forced himself to maintain an elegant smile: "...Who are you?"

The dwarf with an orange-red beard was holding a small hammer. He had a strong physique, muscular body, and a dark brown complexion. He looked like an elder, but... he was only as tall as his waist.

Sorry, I'm too short. He really didn't see it just now. You can't blame him for being rude.

Xi Sui paused, his eyes couldn't help but drift towards the young Finnian. The thought that such a young and cute boy would turn into a muscular old man with a beard...hiss, he couldn't help thinking about it!

"This is Elder Inigo, the great elder of our dwarf tribe!" Finnian introduced proudly, "He is the most skilled alchemist in our dwarf tribe!"

Xi Sui'an and the others were stunned, and then they all bowed to each other: "Greetings, Elder Inigo."

Li Qing put on a smile as if bathed in spring breeze and asked softly, "I am a little confused. How come Dean Flamel's carving knife is here with the dwarves?"

The elderly dwarf stroked his thick beard and smiled: "This was passed down by our previous chief. To be honest, we were tricked by Flamel." He shook his head helplessly when he talked about this.

Xi Sui'an, who is now a member of Damocles, touched his nose. From the previous memory amber, he could see that the alchemist was indeed not a good one, which was very different from the school motto.

Elder Inigo picked up the hammer beside him and walked into the workshop: "Come here first, I will explain it to you." Complaining to his successor could also help to dispel some of the resentment.

They followed this sturdy dwarf elder into the workshop. Hundreds of dwarves were processing ores and metals on the alchemy table. Mountains of alchemy materials were piled up everywhere, colorful and shining. Xi Sui'an couldn't help but wipe the saliva from the corners of his mouth. They were all core materials...

Elder Inigo sighed and said slowly, "3,763 years ago, Flamel came to this city in the center of the earth."

“……”I kind of hold a grudge.

"At that time, we were fighting with the dragons for the ownership of a volcano. Flamel appeared in the Isolde Mountains but left very quickly. We didn't pay any attention to him, thinking he was just passing by. But not long after, the dragons suddenly slacked off in their fight for the volcano. We took advantage of the situation and occupied the volcano. After we inquired about the news, we learned that their dragon tomb had been robbed and a very precious treasure had been lost."

"It is rumored that someone cut off the horn of the greedy dragon Fafnir. The dragons were furious and looked for the thief everywhere. Naturally, they suspected Flamel. Flamel was very stubborn and said that if you have the ability, you can bring evidence to accuse him. Without evidence, it will be considered a frame-up."

Xi Sui'an was silent. What a coincidence! She was from the dragon clan, so how could she doubt Flamel's kindness?

"After that, Flamel visited the Earth Center City. We, the dwarves, entertained him warmly because of this incident. After all, we are happy to see the dragons suffer.

"The clan leader at that time respected him very much and wanted him to accept his next successor as a student to learn life alchemy. However, he refused and told us his purpose. He came to the Earth Core City for an alchemical material unique to the dwarves, the ninth-level Earth Core Colored Diamond. There is only one of this thing in the entire Isolde Mountains. The clan leader at that time was reluctant to give it up, but Flamel used a very rare artifact fragment and his alchemical carving knife in exchange. The clan leader was somewhat tempted and agreed after some discussion."

Li Qing pondered and estimated the value: "Flamel is a ninth-tier alchemist. His carving knives must be of at least mythical quality to be worthy of him. Adding the fragments of the artifact, it is not too bad to exchange them for a ninth-tier colored diamond." It sounds okay.

At this time, the red-bearded old dwarf Elder Inigo slowly turned around, looked up at the famous young man, and said in silence, "Later, my tribe discovered that the artifact fragment did not have any divine power at all and had no research value. His carving knife also sealed itself one day and could not be used at all."

"By the time we found out something was wrong and went to question Damocles, your academy was already headed by Dean Bai Ze. He replied that Dean Flamel had already resigned and left, and was confirmed dead."

"..."

"..."

Even Sylph couldn't help but sigh. A rare but useless artifact fragment was not even worth using as a vase. And the unusable carving knife, these things she could only look at, could be considered as getting something for nothing. She could use the ninth-level earth core colored diamond to nourish the tree of life for more than 30 years!

Elder Inigo stroked his beard and sighed, "There is a saying among humans that when a person dies, his debts are forgiven. In addition, the volcano really helped the development of our dwarf race a lot. After comprehensive consideration, the tribe leader at that time accepted this unfortunate event with a pinch of his nose."

After stealing from the dragon tribe, he cheated the dwarves. He is truly a talented person.

Xi Sui'an sighed: "Then why does he want the dwarfs' earth-core colored diamond?"

Elder Inigo paused, a little confused: "The notes of the former chief said that he liked the Earth's Core Diamond because it was shiny and beautiful."

Xi Sui'an recalled the scene in his previous memory amber. He was covered with blinding alchemical materials. He couldn't help but be silent. This reason might be true.

"Anyway, I've decided to sell it now to avoid getting angry every time I see it." This thing is useless, and it would be a pity to throw it away, so it's better to sell it back to Damocles. He doesn't believe that these rich little guys have no idea about this thing.

"Can we take a look?" Li Qing considered it and became very interested in it.

Elder Inigo shook his head and said with a smile, "It won't be too late to wait until the trade fair. After all, the Dragon Clan's Sword of Promised Victory is also put at the end as a gimmick."

Xi Sui'an shook his head. He was just trying to show off. He was really good at fishing. He said so much just to make Damocles interested and then buy it.

I have to say, I am indeed a little interested.
