The old king's foul language amused Calpurnia.

The elf laughed out loud, but he was talking to a king in the royal hall of another country, which was really rude, so he quickly covered his mouth.

"Laugh, little elf, laugh, why should you hold back? This is the kingdom of dwarves. We dwarves don't have so many rules, haha!"

Magni stood up, tugged at his beard, and said to Caponia with a smile.

"I also have a daughter, Moira, oh, my darling. But she seems to have entered a rebellious phase recently, and she keeps yelling at me, her father. There's nothing I can do. I'm too busy and don't have time to spend with her, alas!"

He turned to Alvin and said, "Look, apart from the king, I'm just an ordinary dwarf!"

Alvin was a little amused.

Rather than being a king, the dwarf in front of him is more like an ordinary middle-aged man who is busy with work and has no time to spend with his family.

"I understand your difficulty, Your Majesty, I mean,"

Alvin thought about it.

"If possible, we can go help the master craftsman and help him solve the problem, so that the subway can be opened quickly, right?"

"Will this... delay your trip? My cousin, Falstad of the Wildhammer, wrote to me saying that you need to go to Stormwind City as soon as possible to support the battle there!"

"Sharpening the knife makes the chopping of wood easier. If we open this railway first, we can reach Stormwind City faster. I think it's worth our effort."

“Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood…”

Magni repeated this sentence in a low voice,

"That's a very concise statement. Just like what we dwarves say, if you want to better kill your enemies, you must first make yourself a good weapon! Haha! You are very wise!"

"Then I'll leave it to you! Mekkatorque should be at the subway entrance. Go find him and tell him I sent you! He must be going crazy right now, haha."

"..."

"That Magni guy! He promised me long ago! He would send people to help us deal with those guys in the tunnel!"

"But this morning! What do you think the accursed dwarf said?"

A dwarf with a white beard and a muscular body was standing on a platform full of gears and complaining to his craftsmen.

The huge goggles were pushed up to the top of his shiny head, and his work clothes were filled with tools, making the dwarf look like a strange toolbox.

Although they look quite old, the dwarfs' voices are always very interesting.

"What did he say?"

"He said, dear brother, all my men have gone to Stormwind City in the south. If you can quickly open up the railway line, you can get help from our friends in Stormwind City more quickly!"

"This guy! Doesn't he know that we can't move forward any further? This bastard!"

Mekkatorque spoke a little excitedly, and his huge goggles kept falling down. The dwarf was a little impatient, and pulled the goggles off his head and threw them to the ground.

"Okay, okay! In that case..."

Mekkatorque pointed the wrench in his hand towards the warehouse.

"Go push my 'baby' out here for me! Let's have a blast!"

"Master Craftsman, are you talking about that thing? Didn't you say that we have to wait until we return to Gnomeregan to repair it?"

"We can't worry about that now! From now on, it's all up to us!"

"..."

"Excuse me... may I ask who is the High Tinker Mekkatorque?"

A young voice came, and the voice was obviously not that of a dwarf.

The dwarfs all looked back and saw that it was a human priest with two girls.

"My name is Elwen Priest. I heard that the Great Craftsman needs help, so His Majesty Magni Bronzebeard entrusted me to come and help you..."

The person who came was Alvin. After leaving the throne hall, he quickly found the subway area with the help of his memories of his previous life.

Sure enough, from a distance I could see a group of dwarfs holding various tools and holding a meeting.

This was the first time he saw a dwarf since he came to this world. They were very short. If dwarfs were already very short, then dwarfs were just like a child who had just entered kindergarten.

It's really funny to see a group of dwarfs looking back together.

Mekkatorque narrowed his eyes, looked at the smiling Alvin, jumped off the gear and came to his side.

Seeing that Alvin was alone and brought two frail girls with him, the master craftsman frowned.

"Oh my god, you're so tall!"

"Pfft!" Alvin almost laughed out loud when he heard this familiar line.

The master craftsman didn't care and crossed his arms over his chest.

"I am Mekkatorque! Is Magni kidding? An army of only three people?! I remember he promised me to send me an army!"

"..."

Lately, people recognize me wherever I go. I’m so used to being praised that I’m a little uncomfortable not being recognized.

"I'm truly sorry, Highsmith. Ironforge's troops are mostly in Stormwind. I'm afraid we're the only ones who can be dispatched right now. But I can promise you we won't let you down. Please feel free to ask for any mission you have."

"Well, well, better late than never!"

Mekkatorque smiled and patted Alvin's leg.

"Although you look weak, the two ladies behind you seem very powerful."

"Greetings, Great Craftsman. I am Caponia Starwish, the mage of Silvermoon City. This is my sister, Akalitrassa, at your service."

Calpurnia laughed.

"..."

Do I really look that weak?

Alvin smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"So, could you explain what the problem is that we're facing?"

"Um......"

Mekkatorque nodded.

"You won't understand even if I tell you. Let me show you!"

After saying that, he turned and left. Alvin and Calpurnia looked at each other and followed closely.

The dwarf put on a helmet with a searchlight and asked his men to prepare the other three and handed them over to Alvin and others.

"The tunnel is still under construction, so I have to show you around. Come on, it's a bit messy in there, please don't mind!"

The entrance to the subway station is a semicircular passage with walls neatly built with bricks, which looks very solid. At the top of the passage, there is a light every few meters, making the passage as bright as day.

Mekkatorque led the three of them through the passage and arrived at the subway station.

The entire subway station is as big as five basketball courts, with a ticket hall, platform, and a locomotive maintenance workshop at the back. The entire station hall has been fully built.

In the middle of the station hall, there is a wide opening with two subway lanes, one going back and forth. The tracks have been laid. A subway car is parked on the platform, and several dwarfs are busy making preparations.

Unlike the one in the game, the subway in front of me is more realistic, with a locomotive in front and two carriages in the back.

Caponia and Akaritasa were very surprised when they saw this kind of machine for the first time. They walked around the subway several times and then entered the back car.

The carriage is clean and tidy, with several comfortable seats neatly fixed in the carriage, which can accommodate at least 20 people.

"Dwarf technology is the best in the world!"

Mekkatorque said proudly,

"Don't just look at it, come on up and let's drive this big thing!"

"Brothers! Take your positions!"

"Yes!"

At the master craftsman's command, the dwarves quickly entered the cab at the front of the car. Mekkatorque also got in and then stuck his head out of the window.

"Mr. Alvin, there's not much room in the cockpit for just one person! Let the girls sit in the back car!"

"Ok!"

"Caponia, you and Akalitasa take care of yourselves, I'll sit in the front!"

"Okay, Alvin! Don't worry!"

Hearing the girl's voice, Alvin also lowered his head and got into the cab.

Although the space is indeed limited, according to Alvin, it is still relatively spacious. It seems that the dwarves deliberately made the space inside the car very large in order to ensure that all races can ride. When Alvin stood in it, there was still a long distance between his head and the roof.

"Okay, everyone, hold on tight, the train is about to depart!"

The Mekkatorque archer pulled the rope beside him, and the subway whistle made a "wooooo!" sound. The train started slowly and drove into the dark tunnel.
