Therefore, I suspected, these are used to fill the slit in the calcareous rocks at all is not the broken blue stone, but yes- 奥利弗的语气有些颤抖:“我曾去过工地,看到那些劳作中的奴隶的手掌,全都是一片漆黑。所以,我怀疑,那些用来填充在灰岩之间缝隙的根本不是碎青石,而是- Coal stone! ” 煤石！” „Coal stone?” The brow of Varla twisted in one, „coal stone was not used to light a fire to forge the weapon? Why restores Eagle Descent City time must buy so many coals......” “煤石？”瓦尔拉的眉头都拧在了一起,“煤石不是用来生火锻造武器的吗？为什么修缮坠鹰城的时候要买这么多煤……” At this point, he was shocked immediately. 说到这里,他顿时愣住了。 Because, a fearful thought has delimited his mind like the lightning generally, making him unable to bear the whole body tremble. 因为,一个可怕的念头如同闪电一般划过他的脑海,让他忍不住浑身战栗。
