Chapter 312, Lilith’s speculation about the origin of the sub-god
The Patriarch's Hall in Bronzebeard Castle.
This is a huge domed building.
It is usually used to receive important guests.
at this time.
The three members of the Avengers Adventure Group are waiting for the Dwarf King Bronzebeard here.
Behind them is the wandering poet Doum who is tied into a ball.
A few people didn't wait too long.
A dwarf wearing heavy steel armor with bright red blood stains on his body walked in.
"Oh, my dear Cardoso."
"You have finally arrived at Bronzebeard Keep."
"I thought you had forgotten your dwarf friends."
The dwarf who walked in took off his helmet, revealing a thick beard.
There is a simple and sincere expression on his face.
But those twinkling eyes made Cardoso's mouth reveal a look of nostalgia.
"Bronzebeard, long time no see."
He escaped the dwarf king's embrace.
He drew out his two swords and held them in front of him.
Boll on the side saw this scene with a surprised look on his face.
Why did he draw his weapon as soon as they met?
At this time, Cardoso said again.
"Others may not know."
"But I don't know you yet."
"Compared to the dwarf warrior, I think the identity of the dwarf thief is more suitable for you."
"You want to steal my sword again."
"Come here again and I'll cut off your beard."
After hearing this, the dwarf king smiled and stepped back.
Then he said: 'Long time no see, it seems you haven't forgotten me yet. ’
"Why, what's the matter with coming to Bronzebeard Castle now?"
As he spoke, the Dwarf King looked at a few people.
When his eyes saw Dumu.
There was a look of surprise on his face.
"You caught this filthy bastard!"
Cardoso nodded.
Then he stated his purpose of coming.
As for Dumu, it was their meeting gift.
After the dwarf king finished listening.
There was a look of contemplation on his face.
Then he picked up the heavy hammer and walked to the wandering poet.
He just hit it with a hammer and smashed this guy who liked to tell vulgar jokes into a puddle of flesh.
The dwarf king clapped his hands and said.
"I have wanted to kill him for a long time."
"I just never had time."
"I like this gift very much."
At this point he paused.
"As for assisting you to go to the mysterious village."
"I want to help you."
"The monsters coming out of it are also a huge threat to our dwarves."
"Although they only swallowed the human kingdom this time."
"But the divine monster also attacked us, and more than three hundred dwarves with noble blood were killed."
"The divine monster is our greatest enemy."
"But Cardoso, compared to the threat of the divine monster, the threat of the black dragon Aslan is right in front of us."
"If I send the dwarf army to follow you to the mysterious village now."
"Then my Bronzebeard City will be occupied by the black dragon."
"I took over the throne from my father and vowed to protect the Bronzebeard clan's fortress."
"So~"
He didn't wait for the dwarf king to finish.
Cardoso interrupted.
"We'll help you deal with the black dragon."
"After killing the black dragon, you help us go to the mysterious village."
Hearing this, the Dwarf King Bronzebeard looked at Cardoso in surprise.
asked in disbelief.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"My ranger friend?"
Cardoso raised his swords.
"I swear by the shadow of the moon."
As a companion who had gone on adventures together, the Dwarf King naturally knew the importance of the double-sword Moon Shadow to Cardoso.
He stepped forward excitedly.
"Great, Cardoso, to have you join us."
"I now have the confidence to sweep away the black dragon's lair."
“The reason why we were in a stalemate for so long was because I wasn’t confident that I could defeat him.”
"After you join, with our combined strength, the black dragon will die!"
Cardoso nodded, then pointed at Bol and the undead.
"Boll's strength is not bad either. He is a knight who believes in the seven virtues."
"This is the Necromancer. Although he is an undead creature, he is willing to fight to the death with divine monsters."
"Behind the Necromancer there is an army of the undead, and this is our power to fight against the divine monster."
"At the same time, I will also join this war against the black dragon."
After hearing about the strength Cardoso brings to his teammates.
Dwarf King Bronzebeard suddenly felt a surge of confidence.
"Okay, great."
"With your help."
"Within three days, the Black Dragon King will die."
"Now let's discuss how to defeat the Black Dragon King Aslan!"
As he spoke, he took out a huge map.
The military strength of both sides is marked on it.
He pointed to the other side of the River Elland.
"The subordinates of the Black Dragon King are mainly orcs and dragonborn of low-level blood."
"There are three high-level dependents, namely the centaur chief, the dragon-blooded jackal, and the dragon-blooded kobold priest."
"The legion is dominated by dragon-blood goblins."
"Among them, dragon-blooded goblins have the largest number. Although this kind of low-level creature is not very powerful in combat, it is extremely intelligent."
"They are good at making various siege equipment. They even cracked our muskets and made goblin volley guns."
"Even more powerful."
"This time on the front line, my Royal Fusiliers encountered an ambush by dragon-blooded goblins and lost more than half of them."
"Just now, I personally led the team and snatched the Musketeers out of the hands of the dragon-blooded goblins."
"Currently our front is shrinking and withdrawing from the north bank."
"Rely on the River Arran for defense."
"But I heard that the Black Dragon is planning to send dragonborn to cover the dragon-blooded goblins crossing the river."
"If you don't come, I will ask Hekou Town for help."
Having said this, he paused and looked at Cardoso.
"Last time you said you would return to the Mori Giant Tribe."
"Did you bring the original Blood Forest giant this time?"
"If they join the battle, I am willing to fund all the armor and weapons."
Obviously, the dwarf king also knew the strength of the original blood giant.
If he could get the original blood giants to join them, in his opinion, these so-called dragon-blooded goblins and dragon-born legions would be vulnerable to a single blow.
But for his expectations.
Cardoso shook his head and told his story.
Then he continued.
"There is no original blood giant, but we can help you kill the Black Dragon King."
"You just said that the Black Dragon King wanted to cross the river."
"Bronzebeard."
"Do you still remember the time we killed the poisonous lizard during our adventure?"
Bronzebeard nodded.
"Of course."
"The poisonous lizard is protected by many lizardmen."
"We also formed an elite team and ambush on the side."
"Wait until the adventurers from the front contain the lizard guard, then attack the poisonous lizard king from the side and kill him."
"Could it be that you are planning to do the same this time?"
Cardoso nodded.
"Not bad."
"I need you to lead the dwarves to attract the Black Dragon King's main army."
"Then let us sneak across the Ailan River and fight into the Black Dragon King's lair."
"With the strength of the three of us, under the protection of the Black Dragon King without guards."
"Killing him is not difficult!"
The Dwarf King recognized Cardoso's strength.
In a head-on confrontation, even if he is wearing heavy armor, he will be defeated within ten moves.
Although the Black Dragon King is stronger than himself, he is not ridiculously strong.
Therefore, Cardoso's assassination plan has a high success rate.
After Bronzebeard thought for a long time, his originally erratic eyes became firm.
He looked at Cardoso and said.
"Okay!"
"Just do as you say."
"I will gather my troops now and head to the river bank."
"Attract the Black Dragon King's troops."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking.
Suddenly there were rapid footsteps outside.
"Clan leader."
"It's not good."
"News came from Hekou Town that our business group was all killed by assassins sent by the Black Dragon King."
Upon hearing the news, the already hot-tempered Dwarf King exploded.
"Damn."
"What about the humans in Bayou Town? They are not the ones who promised to protect us!"
The dwarf soldier who came in replied.
"The humans in Hekou Town said that we were the first to break the rules and kill the Black Dragon King's subordinate, the wandering poet Doum."
Hear this.
The dwarf king subconsciously looked at the puddle of meat.
But he quickly turned his head.
"Slander!"
"We didn't catch Doum at all."
"These damn humans still want to be neutral."
"When I kill the black dragon, I will drive them all away."
"Go and inform all the dwarves in Bayou Town to return to Bronzebeard Castle immediately."
"Hekou Town is colluding with Black Dragon!"
"Conspiracy to murder the dwarves!"
"They will be enemies from now on!"
"Yes!"
Then the dwarf king looked at Cardoso.
"The Black Dragon King assassinates the merchant group, which means the beginning of all-out war."
"The war will not stop unless the Black Dragon King is killed."
"If you help me kill the Black Dragon King."
"I will convince the high priest to personally lead the dwarf royal elite to follow you to the mysterious village!"
"I swear by the honor of the Bronzebeard family and the blood of the dwarves!"
Bronzebeard's oath is exactly what Cardo asked for.
He nodded slowly.
"Okay."
"We will immediately prepare to cross the river and head to the territory of the Black Dragon King."
And just when Tongbeard City began to mobilize.
The dragon's lair where the Black Dragon King lives.
"Report!"
"The dragonblood goblin army has defeated the dwarves and they have retreated."
to this news.
The Black Dragon King raised his head, showing a ferocious expression.
"The dwarves were defeated."
"But we can't pursue."
"Send the order, guard the river bank, and build a permanent fortress."
"Publish false news, saying that we are preparing to cross the river."
"Yes."
And after the order is issued.
The centaur chief under the Black Dragon King asked in confusion.
"Your Excellency Aslan, why don't we pursue you?"
"This is an opportunity to capture the dwarf city."
The Black Dragon King shook his head.
"No."
"I can't destroy the dwarves yet, once they leave."
"The main target of the next divine monster attack will be us."
"We need the dwarves out there!"
"Nothing but human~"
"There is no need for Hekou Town to exist anymore."
"There are no more extraordinary human beings there."
"Send the order, dragon-blooded kobold warriors gather."
"Prepare to attack Hekou Town."
"Just use the disappearance of the wandering poet Doom as an excuse."
"Yes!"
And shortly after the order was issued.
Sudden.
The guard hurried in with a kobold.
"Your Excellency Aslan."
"The dwarves are attacking us."
"Our leader has been assassinated."
"The shameless dwarves sent assassins to kill our priest."
Hear the kobold's incoherent words.
Black Dragon King Aslan was a little surprised.
"What!"
"Impossible!"
"How come dwarves are so powerful!"
Just when he still didn't believe it.
The voice of the dragon-blooded goblin came from outside.
"Great Lord Aslan, the dwarves have launched an attack on us."
"They began a general mobilization and gathered all their forces on the banks of the River Elland."
"Get ready to cross the river!"
This news surprised the Black Dragon King.
But that's not the worst.
Then a jackal broke in.
"Your Excellency."
"Our patriarch is dead."
"The dwarves discovered our base lurking on the south bank."
"Assassinated our clan leader."
The Black Dragon King heard that two of the three high-level leaders under his command actually lost two in succession.
Immediately angry.
"Despicable dwarf!"
"A surprise attack!"
"Does he think that by killing my subordinates, he can defeat the great Black Dragon King?"
"I want him to see what power is!"
"The Centaur Chieftain."
"Blow the horn of war!"
"Gather all the tribes."
"I will make the dwarf pay the price with blood!"
"As you command~"
News of the large-scale gathering of black dragons and dwarves soon spread to Hekou Town.
After hearing this, the human nobles in the town heard.
He immediately became worried.
Especially after discovering that the Black Dragon King intends to march here.
After deliberation, the nobles of Hekou Town.
A decision was made immediately.
They sent troops to arrest all the forces related to the Black Dragon King in the town.
Then an envoy was sent to Bronzebeard Keep.
Request an alliance to fight against the Black Dragon King.
In addition, knights began to be sent out of town.
Offer bounties to the remaining towns in the kingdom.
Recruit mercenaries and expand the garrison.
And soon!
The nobles of Hekou Town got an unexpected gain.
A group of original blood giant mercenaries who left the giant forest joined them.
This unexpected surprise not only surprised the nobles of Hekou Town, but also shocked their confidence.
Especially after learning that this giant mercenary can accept long-term employment.
Directly prepare to leave the giant in the town.
to this end.
They did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy a large amount of heavy armor and weapons from the dwarves.
Armed the original blood giant to the teeth.
Then the task of guarding the gate of Bayou Town was assigned to this giant army.
Not long after the Giant Legion entered Hekou Town.
The castle where Fang Yuan was located received the news.
He looked at Christian and said.
“I didn’t expect the plan to go so smoothly.”
"Qingfeng has also returned to Hekou Town."
"Christian, what happens next is up to you!"
Fang Yuan ordered.
Christian nodded.
"Don't worry, Your Excellency."
"We will get news of victory tomorrow."
Fang Yuan nodded and watched Christian leave.
Then he returned to the castle conference hall.
Here it is.
Two mages, Lilith and Vivian, are looking at the collected books.
These were collected by Ziyue mercenaries from various places.
The text in the book has long been lost, and even Lilith can't read it, but Vivian, who has a blood troll, can understand a little bit.
Through the constant translation of the two people.
I can already understand some texts from the Dark Ages.
Fang Yuan also hopes that they can get some information from it to pass the customs as soon as possible.
After all, it was the second day.
I haven’t even passed the first level of the secret realm.
There are six levels behind!
But Fang Yuan looked at the two mages with furrowed brows.
Obviously.
Their gains were not very great.
Just when he was slightly disappointed.
Sudden.
Lilith said.
"Lord."
"I have a vague guess."
"It's about the origin of the sub-god!"
"It's probably related to our mission!!!" (End of Chapter)
