Chapter 93 Micah's Absurd Words (Second Update, Please Subscribe)

Otto's tone was very calm, but his eyes were full of determination.

He knew that with the help of the Magical Ape, he didn't need to worry about future job changes; he only needed some extraordinary professionals.

Right now, the most important thing for him is to improve his basic attributes as soon as possible, hone his combat skills, and lay a solid foundation.

Only in this way can he go further, no matter what career path he chooses in the future.

Thinking of this, Otto took out a grayish-white finger bone from his pocket and placed it next to the metal plate.

"After purifying the pottery jar, I opened it and took out what was inside."

Besides this metal piece, I also found this finger bone. I don't know what kind of monster it's from, or if it's of any use.

This finger bone is about the length of a finger, with a smooth surface and an ivory-like color. It is engraved with some very ancient and strange runes and emits a faint but pure magical fluctuation.

Otto studied it for a long time but still couldn't figure out its origin or purpose.

"Oh, right, I also found a runic weapon."

As Otto spoke, he turned and walked to his Moonsilver carved armor, taking out a black iron chain from the inside pocket of the armor.

The chain is about one meter long and is made up of small black iron rings connected together. The surface of the iron rings is covered with strange dark red runes.

The iron chain was icy cold to the touch, like holding a block of ice, and it also exuded a nauseating, evil aura that made one feel extremely uncomfortable.

When Micah saw the chain, the smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a very serious and solemn expression.

He carefully picked up the chain, avoiding direct contact with the runes on it, and began to examine it closely.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, his tone filled with disbelief.

"This...this is a binding rune, and a specialized one at that!"

As an experienced dwarven blacksmith, Micah could only forge the Lock Core Rune by hand, but that did not diminish his knowledge.

He had seen many runic weapons and alchemical artifacts in the Dwarf Kingdom and was very familiar with all kinds of common and rare runes.

Therefore, he recognized the runes on the iron chain in front of him at a glance.

"This specialized type of binding rune is far more powerful than ordinary binding runes."

Micah explained to Otto and Goren as he inspected the chains.

"It can not only imprison the enemy's body, but also imprison the enemy's soul, making the enemy unable to move or use any spells or skills."

Of course, this is on the premise that the user's level is higher than that of the banned user.

Moreover, because the enhanced characteristics come at the cost of reduced operability, the forbidden rune requires the user to lower their guard. This rune is extremely malevolent and is often used by necromancers to create their own necromancer slaves.

Of course, some perverts also use it as a tool to torture their enemies.

Micah's tone was full of disgust.

"We dwarves hate making these kinds of insidious rune items the most."

We believe this is a desecration of the forging technique.

The manufacture and sale of such runic weapons are strictly prohibited throughout the entire Dwarven Kingdom.

Otto, where did you get this?

Micah looked puzzled.

Having lived in Oaktown for many years, he was certain that, apart from himself, there was no other craftsman in the surrounding towns who could create runes.

Not to mention creating such powerful and highly restrictive specialized forbidden runes.

Upon hearing Micah's question, Otto briefly recounted his experiences from the previous night to the two of them.

The commission from the Jackdaw Cemetery, Romeo's sweet words, and Juliet's resentment and the damaged corpse.

After listening to Otto's explanation, Micah suddenly understood and nodded.

"Then it's not surprising."

He sighed helplessly and said in a heavy tone.

"I'm afraid this is the creation of the Grey Dwarves."

"Grey dwarves?"

Otto and Goren both looked puzzled.

They had all heard of the Grey Dwarves, but knew nothing about the race.

"That's right, they are gray dwarves."

Micah nodded and began to explain to the two of them.

"Many years ago, a group of traitors who worshipped the dark god appeared in the dwarf kingdom."

They abandoned the dwarven god of forging and instead worshipped evil beings, learning dark magic and insidious forging techniques.

Their actions angered the dwarf king, and they were banished from the dwarf kingdom.

At this point, Micah seemed a little hesitant, but when he thought about how this matter was related to the Grey Dwarves, he told them everything he knew.

"These expelled traitors eventually made their way to the Kingdom of Thorne and established their stronghold in the southern mountains."

It is said that the southern border is their current base of operations.

They are known as the Grey Dwarves, renowned for crafting insidious runic weapons and magical artifacts, and frequently collude with necromancers, cultists, and various evil forces.

Micah's tone was full of contempt and anger.

"Such vicious props are their masterpiece."

However, after explaining the origins of the gray dwarves, Micah seemed to have thought of something, and his expression became even more serious.

"Since the other party was prepared in advance, and even specially prepared this kind of specialized chain with forbidden runes, then it can only mean one thing: Romeo's so-called elopement was probably premeditated."

"you mean?"

Goren frowned, as if he understood something.

"I'm afraid Romeo approached Juliet from the very beginning with the intention of turning her into his undead servant."

Micah's tone was very certain.

"He meticulously planned this elopement to lure Juliet to this remote town, and then, after her death, to perform a necromancy ritual on her body."

At this point, Micah looked at Otto and asked in a serious tone.

"Otto, have you examined Juliet's body?"

Is she still a virgin?

Upon hearing this, Goren immediately wore a strange and embarrassed expression.

He stared at Micah with wide eyes and muttered to himself.

"Mr. Micah, what are you saying?"

We can't exactly ask Otto to examine the body of that poor dead girl to see if it was virgin, can we?

This is utterly disrespectful to the dead!

But when Micah saw Goren winking at him, he simply waved his hand and said helplessly.

You misunderstood. What I meant was...

Before Micah could explain, the door to the forging workshop was pushed open with a bang.

Otto reacted extremely quickly, instantly gripping the hilt of the iron sword at his waist, his body tense, ready for battle.
