Hearing the sound coming from around his waist, Xu Yi lowered his head in shock and saw a cute little human girl staring up at him with curiosity on her face.
"This..." Xu Yi widened his eyes and instantly judged that this was not a human little girl, but...
"Dwarf! Oh my god, they are actually dwarfs!"
Xu Yi was stunned. He squatted down and made peace with the little girl. He observed it carefully and confirmed that he had not seen it wrong.
This creature, which at first glance looks not much different from a human little girl, is actually quite different from a human little girl in details. The most important difference is that the pair are somewhat similar to the elves, but one size smaller. pointy ears.
Coupled with the slightly stubby figure and the obviously big and bright eyes, this is definitely the same as the dwarf tribe recorded in the literature.
Yes, this is a dwarf tribe!
But haven’t the dwarfs disappeared across the entire continent long ago
According to various documents, as early as two thousand years ago, the dwarf tribe completely disappeared on the continent of Sainz.
The elves will still show some traces in more than two thousand years, and there are even elven tribes like the Moon Shadow tribe that often come into contact with humans. However, for more than two thousand years, there has been no trace, not even a rumor, of the dwarf clan.
In the final conclusions drawn in all the documents, and even in everyone's judgment, it has been determined that the dwarf race has completely disappeared from this continent.
Maybe he really went to another continent deep in the endless sea like the legend said, but on the Sainz continent, it has been confirmed that there are no dwarfs.
But now, right in front of Xu Yi, a living dwarf appeared!
Xu Yi stared at the cute-looking female dwarf in front of him. He couldn't help but reached out and touched her face.
The tentacles were smooth and tender, confirming that this was not an illusion.
"Oh my god! Human, you actually touched a lady's face casually! You are definitely not a human with gentlemanly demeanor!" The dwarf woman suddenly shouted loudly.
Xu Yi suddenly felt embarrassed. He quickly smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I just... I just can't believe this is true. Haven't the dwarfs completely disappeared from the continent of Sainz long ago? You... why are you still here? And in Ai What about the elven tribe of the Sara tribe?" "Hey. Humans, first of all, I have a name, you can call me Lumi. Secondly, although our dwarf tribe decided to leave the Sainz continent more than two thousand years ago, , but not all dwarfs are willing to leave, like our Tana family, we stayed.”
Speaking of which. The female dwarf who called herself Remy lowered her head slightly, her face full of sadness.
"But now I am the only one in the Tana family who is still alive, and everyone else is dead..."
Xu Yi looked at the female dwarf in front of him as if he recognized a little girl, and for a moment he didn't know what to say to comfort her.
Although the dwarfs look similar to human children in appearance, their actual life span is far longer than that of humans, and is almost the same as that of the elves.
Although this female dwarf looks like a human girl in her teens, her actual age is probably one or two hundred years old.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi suddenly thought of another question.
"Lumi, you just said that your dwarf tribe decided to leave the continent of Sainz. In other words, did they really go to another continent outside the Endless Sea, as in the legend?"
Lumi shook her little head: "I don't know. There is another continent besides Sainz continent. It's just a guess made by the elders of the tribe based on observing Sainz continent. The elders said that in fact, we are not living On a flat land, it is very possible to live on a big ball. Therefore, the Sainz continent is not the only continent in the world, and there may be another one at the far end of the endless sea. Continent. But the elders are not sure whether this continent is there..."...
Xu Yi's eyes widened suddenly, and he grabbed Lumi's shoulders with both hands and shook them hard.
"You mean... the dwarfs didn't actually disappear? But they went to other continents?"
Lumi was a little dizzy after being shaken by Xu Yi. It took her a while to come back to her senses and nodded blankly.
"Yeah, but I'm not sure..."
"Great!" Xu Yi stood up excitedly. He spun around in circles a few times, unable to hold back the smile on his face. "Great! It turns out that the dwarfs have really not disappeared. They still exist in this world. What other continents are nothing, now I even have an ocean-going ship. I will find them sooner or later!"
Seeing Xu Yi spinning around, Lumi looked up blankly. Elders Undini and Lisanya next to her were also in a daze.
Although the dwarfs are indeed very rare, Xu Yi will not be so excited after hearing the news about the dwarfs, right
Xu Yi wandered around for a while, finally regaining his composure, his smile faded slightly, he knelt down again to look level with Lumi, and asked seriously: "Lumi, can you determine which direction your people left Sainz Continent from? Or to be more precise, which port did it leave from?"
Lumi shook her head: "I don't know where it is specifically, but the elders said that according to speculation, the other continent should be in the west, so the tribesmen all went to the sea and headed west."
"To the west?" Xu Yi turned his head and glanced to the west, thinking that it would be a good idea to depart from the new flight port of the Principality of Standing? Immediately another question came to mind. "Lumi, you just said that your elders speculated that we do not live on a flat land, but on a big ball. Is there any basis for this?"
Lumi wrinkled her short, delicate eyebrows and thought for a while, then shook her head again.
"I am not sure… "
Judging from Lumi's reaction, she was indeed unclear about some relevant details of the dwarf tribe.
But then I thought about it and it was right.
It has been more than two thousand years since the dwarfs left the continent of Sainz, and Lumi is only one or two hundred years old at most, so it is normal to not know these things.
"Speaking of which...Human, why are you so excited when you see me?" Lumi suddenly asked. "Do you think I'm a dwarf?"
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "You can say that, but it is not just because you are a dwarf, but more importantly because of your dwarfs' knowledge of magic machinery. Do you understand what I mean?"
Lumi's eyes lit up: "Of course I understand. Human, you are the president of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, right? It's the chamber of commerce that invented a lot of weird magic machines."
"Yes. Have you heard of me?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
"Of course. If I didn't know about the magic machinery of your New Flying Chamber of Commerce, why would I beg Undini to bring you here." Lumi nodded. "Hey, humans, I've checked out those strange magic machines produced by your New Flying Chamber of Commerce. I think they all have their own characteristics. In many aspects, they are even as good as the magic machines studied by us dwarves."
"Isn't it just bad?" Xu Yi couldn't help but smile, thinking that this dwarf was quite confident.
These magical machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are all exquisite products made by him by combining the complete mechanical theoretical knowledge on the earth and the magical knowledge on the Sainz continent. However, Lumi didn't think highly of them.
Lumi seemed to see what Xu Yi was thinking and smiled.
"Human, those magical machines of your New Flying Chamber of Commerce were all invented by you, right?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "Most of the credit should go to the researchers of our chamber of commerce. I just proposed an idea."
"Having ideas is the most important thing." Lumi suddenly reached into her arms, touched it, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Xu Yi. "For the sake of those magical machines you invented, I can allow you to look at this drawing."…
"Drawing?" Xu Yi took it over in confusion, opened it, and found that it was actually a drawing, and it was a standard mechanical structure diagram.
After a quick glance, Xu Yi judged it immediately.
"This seems to be a design drawing of a magic airship?"
"Yes!" Lumi nodded vigorously, even stood up and patted Xu Yi's shoulder gently, saying in an appreciative tone: "You are indeed very talented in magic machinery, I read that right."
Xu Yi was speechless. He shook his head and ignored Lumi who looked proud. He lowered his head and carefully looked at the drawings in his hands.
After careful observation, he immediately saw that the magic airship represented on this drawing was very different from the magic airship of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
The design principle of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's magic airship still focuses on the mechanical aspect, while the magic aspect mainly provides an output power.
The magic airship on this drawing is mainly focused on magic, and the mechanical design is mainly to complete an overall structure.
As for the power of the entire magic airship, it relies entirely on magic.
This kind of design can make the design of the structure and power components of the entire magic airship slightly simpler, because these are all completed by magic.
But relatively speaking, the magic airship designed in this way has extremely high requirements for magic, and the magic power consumption is also much greater.
In terms of explosiveness and ease of control alone, this design is much better than the magic airship designed by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. However, because the overall manufacturing requirements are too precise, and there are too many magic arrays that need to be set up, the production cost is extremely high. , so it is difficult to achieve mass production like the Magic Airship of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
And because the power consumption is too high, in daily use, it is far less economical than the magic airship of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and it is also easier to be accepted by the public.
After looking at it for a while, Xu Yi did not rush to ask these questions to Lumi. Instead, he thought about it and asked her: "Hey, Lumi, what do you want to do when you let me look at this drawing?"
Lumi looked into Xu Yiping's own eyes, opened her mouth, and showed a hearty and lovely smile.
"Human, because of your respect for me, I have decided to cooperate with your New Flying Chamber of Commerce to jointly create magic machines!"
