Falling in Love With the Author I Read Chapter 81

The whole place within sight was covered with metallic tones. The steel city was lit up by large and small balls of light, making it as bright as day. This familiar scene made Sam instantly recall its name - the Dwarf Ruins.

In front of them was a circular square, with a group of dwarf iron statues standing in the center. Seeing Xiu and Sam coming, the group of iron dwarves suddenly "came alive", jumping and beating drums, and a line of flashing text fireworks "Welcome to 'Home', this is the kingdom of dwarves" appeared above their heads. One of the dwarf iron statues took out something like a large part, held it in both hands and faced them, as if he wanted to give it to them. Sam didn't know why he felt that the part in the iron dwarf's hand was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before. After expressing the welcome, all the iron dwarves solidified into iron statues again, and only the welcome fireworks were still shining in the square.

All of that was not magic, but a performance made possible by pure machinery and technology. When Xiu was trapped in the Gate of Wisdom to learn forging technology, Old John had taken Sam to visit this square. This is the "circle" at the bottom of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, representing the "kingdom", and is also the real entrance to the inner city of the dwarfs. At that time, Sam had also seen these dwarf iron statues performing as usual after tens of thousands of years, but at that time there was no dwarf iron statue holding anything to present to them. It seemed that this was automatically added by the tower.

Just like what Rachel said, the dwarf dungeon was really a dwarf ruins. Although he had the advantage of being familiar with the place, Sam couldn't relax at all. The reason was simple: the beautiful but irrational beast behind him was holding him in its mouth.

Sam didn't know whether to worry about Rachel and the others who were left behind, or about himself who was about to join the McDonald's Super Value Dinner. His body suddenly felt heavy, but it was Xiu who was biting his collar and raised his head. Sam looked at the street in front of him, where there was a "click" sound of footsteps, a pair of blue light spots appeared from the depths of the street, and a tall one-star mechanical puppet approached from afar.
