Snorri left immediately. This matter involved the next stage of his mission, and he needed to go back and think about it carefully. Using the pretext of praying to the ancestor goddess, Snorri sat alone in the room and slowly thought about it.
Karak-Bafeng Mountain is an important fulcrum that connects the northern and southern sections of the World's Edge Mountains. It also contains massive mineral deposits and wealth. Recovering it is crucial to the revival of the Mountain Kingdom.
But Snorri didn't believe in Belegar-The Hammer's ability. The true master of the Eight Peaks Mountain had failed at least three times in its original history. Even though Thorgrim the Grudge-Bearer once led an army of 10,000 to help him, it was only a failure.
A small stronghold was established outside the fortress.
Snorri didn't think that adding one more person to the army of ten thousand could bring about big changes. Even if it was captured with the blessing of the ancestor gods or something else, it would be difficult to be self-sufficient and it would be surrounded by only Iron Peak Castle in the south.
How should we defend when we are all enemies?
In Snorri's view, if you want to regain the Eight Peaks Mountains, you must do it step by step. The numerous failures of the Andegrand clan over thousands of years have proven that gambling-style rash advancement is not possible.
After thinking about this clearly, Snorri determined his attitude towards Belegar. He did not support it, at least for the time being. He would regain the mountain fortress by himself and reforge the artifact. He also needed manpower. There were only so many dwarves in the world. If there was freedom,
What would he do if everyone ran away to Belegar's men?
Two days later, the oracle of the Ancestor Goddess came down. She supported the last bloodline of the Andegrand clan to regain their homeland, but hoped that Belegar could learn from the experience and lessons of his ancestors, find a place to recuperate, and accumulate strength before making plans.
The attitude of the ancestor goddess made many tribesmen who were on the sidelines temporarily give up the idea of defecting to Belegar, but there are still many clans that once belonged to Karak-Eight Peaks and rushed to Belegar's command from all directions.
Belegar-Ironhammer is the last direct bloodline of the Eight Peaks Mountain royal family. Once he dies in battle before leaving an heir, no one will have the corresponding appeal. At the same time, there is a lack of secret passages, treasure troves and other information controlled by the Undergrand clan.
It can be said that it is almost impossible to recapture Bafeng Mountain.
Those clans who had lost their homeland were unwilling to let go of this last opportunity, and the heroic spirit of King Loen who remained in the mortal world was a strong call. Their response gave Belega more power and weight.
Seeing this situation, Lord Lagos of Copper Mountain Castle decided to raise his stakes. He was the largest sponsor of Prince Domgar's expedition and suffered the greatest losses as a result.
Before setting off, the two had agreed that if Domga succeeded, he would marry the second daughter of the Lord of Lagos as his queen. Now that Domga is dead, Lagos simply betrothed his daughter to Belega and completely tied him up.
on his own chariot.
In this way, after Belegar's death, his and the Princess of Copperhill Castle's children will have a strong claim to Karak-Eight Peaks. Since the Eternal Peak is not very interested in his plan to regain his homeland due to the influence of Snorri,
, Belega has no more choices.
He took the remaining troops by boat from Haimen Pass to Tongshan Fort, where he relied on the wealth extracted from his clan's treasury to recruit troops and prepare to launch a new round of war.
In the following days, Snorri continued to keep a low profile and learn to carve new runes. This year, the year-end sacrifice of Karaz-a-Karak was handed over to him without hesitation, and Snorri took advantage of the opportunity to announce that he would be worshiped by the ancestral goddess.
Ordered to recapture Karak Zun, that is, the news of Plateau Fort.
When the dwarves were created by the Old Ones, they were first placed in the Southland. Karak-Zun was the original fortress built by the ancestor gods, where they gave birth to their first children.
As the dwarves, led by the ancestral gods, moved northward along the World's Edge Mountains, the center of the Mountain Kingdom also moved. After the great earthquake in the Dark Ages, there was no news of Plateau Castle, but almost all the tribesmen believed that it was there.
There are countless, unimaginable treasures.
Karak-Zun has been the interest of dwarven explorers over the years, but they either left and never returned, or came back empty-handed to tell of the terror of the wild orcs in the rainforest or the power of the tomb kings in the desert.
However, Snorri was different from his predecessors. He claimed that the ancestor goddess told him the specific location of Plateau Castle, so this trip was more of an exploration than a search based on the map.
Snorri calculated his progress in mastering the runes and set the departure time in three years. He planned to take the sea route from Haimen Pass, so that he could bypass the bad land and avoid fighting with large groups of greenskins.
In his own name, Snorri issued an announcement to all the tribesmen who were willing to believe and support him: to gather at the Eternal Peak in three years, or those who are close can go directly to Haimen Pass to wait and explore the hometown of their ancestors together.
He will share the wealth gained with every participant.
Snorri's announcement spread throughout the Mountain Kingdom and even the Old World through the rune telegraph system. With the endorsement of the ancestral goddess, all the tribesmen believed that he could find Plateau Castle, and his name as "The Generous One" and the Supreme Prince
, rune master and other multiple identities make the tribesmen feel assured about the expected benefits.
Snorri is willing to accept every qualified dwarf warrior into his ranks, just like the expedition leaders before him.
But Snorri also allows trustworthy friends from other order races to submit applications. After being reviewed and approved by him, they can join the team and enjoy the same treatment and obligations as the dwarves.
Such behavior caused some dissatisfaction among some long-bearded elders. But after all, Snorri's prestige was high enough, and many stubborn tribesmen also realized that bringing in foreign aid could make up for the lack of strength and reduce the casualties of the tribe. In the end, that point
The opposition didn't stir up much fuss.
In the next year, with the full support of the clan, Snorri participated in the co-election of the vice-president of the Rune Blacksmith Guild. With the widespread use of rune transmitters, Master Kragg did not do much to hinder it.
Nouri's election was a natural progression.
However, he did not have time to participate in the power struggle within the guild. Apart from adding a gold ring to the emblem on his chest and adding a new title to himself, he had no additional gains.
As winter turns to spring, Snorri suddenly realizes a problem, that is, he knows the specific location of Plateau Castle through the strategic map that comes with the system, but how to get there, in addition to a few famous large strongholds on the path, there are
He didn't know what.
The real world is not something that can be passed directly by a charcoal stroke on a map and two points in a row. For this reason, Snorri issued another announcement and searched extensively for information related to Plateau Castle.
