As we all know, the dwarf mountain kingdom has been in decline for a long time. During that terrible catastrophe, most of the dwarf cities located in the Roof Mountains of the World have fallen.
The Eternal Peak once faced a siege by hundreds of thousands of greenskin troops. This siege lasted for several years, which led to many human books recording that the Eternal Peak once fell to the greenskins.
But in fact, it is not. Even though it has been besieged by the greenskins for several years, no green skin has ever entered the Eternal Peak. The fact is that the Eternal Peak is the pride of the dwarves and the location of the ancestral temple of Granni, the throne of the High King.
It is also located here, where the book of great hatred of the dwarves is kept, as well as countless precious items piled up like a treasure house.
Ancient tomes, each one awe-inspiring to any dwarf. After long rants and complaints, even the most independent dwarves who have traveled here from distant fortresses will admit that Karaz-a-Karak is the pride of the mountains. Although they
Their empire had collapsed, but despite their country's iron heart, its power and glory endured.
The green-skinned warlord Angok-Beard Burner once led hundreds of thousands of greenskins to besiege the Eternal Peak, but they were powerless against the giant gate that was hundreds of meters high. Even the most waaaagh and the most gigantic siege machines could only attack the Eternal Peak.
A shallow mark was left on the gate. It took the greenskins a lot of time to understand that they had no siege weapons to open the gate. At this juncture, the dwarves discovered the secret of black powder and relied on the new weapons to attack in one fell swoop.
Retire the greenskin army.
To this day, the master of the Eternal Peak and the lord of Karaz-a-Karak is the High King of the Dwarfs, Thorgrim the Grudge-bearer, who appears in front of the army of knights.
Ryan had not met Thorgrim the Grudge Bearer before, because the High King rarely went as far as Britannia, but from many dwarves, he had heard a series of deeds of the High King.
The current High King is not the legitimate son of the previous Dwarf High King Arikson. The previous High King Arikson responded to the call of the savior Ludwig and went to the empire to participate in the Great Holy War. His legitimate son was involved in the Great Holy War.
He was killed in battle, and he himself was seriously injured, and it was a serious injury that was difficult to recover from the curse of Chaos. After returning to the Eternal Peak, Arikson felt that his time was running out, so he passed the throne to Thorgrim, the Resentment Bearer, and the new
A high king.
The currently known information is that Thorgrim the Hater is about a thousand years old this year, which is considered to be an advanced age among the dwarves. When he was young, the High King once traveled in the old world under the alias Thorgrim Ironhelm.
I especially like White Wolf City and have lived there for a long time. Therefore, Thorgreen is not ignorant of the outside world as many people imagine. On the contrary, he has an incomparable understanding of the human world.
After becoming the Supreme King, Thorgreen began a dream he had had since he was a child - to cleanse all hatred. He dreamed of eliminating every hatred and sweeping away the book of hatred. This was obviously impossible, but Thorgreen
His determination is extremely firm. As long as the Dwarf High King is free,
He will keep flipping through the big book of hatred, looking at the hatreds and crimes on it, and he can't help but gnash his teeth, and even curse out loud. He usually keeps the book of hatred by his side when he does anything, even if it's a crime.
I also put the Book of Hatred under my pillow when I sleep.
But if everyone thinks that the High King is a reckless man or a die-hard or radical, then they are totally wrong. Thorgreen remembers his hatred, but he knows how to accumulate strength and look for opportunities. The destruction of Black Rock Castle is just right.
It was he who caught the liquor
When Gofan was seriously injured by Tamu Khan, he encouraged the dwarves to innovate in science and technology and create new war machines, and he also knew the difference between revenge, revenge and recompense (the dwarves' Khazadli language has more than a dozen words for revenge)
Words are distinguished in great detail).
For example, there was once a Brunswick imperial nobleman named Burg Meisters who deliberately created rumors to slander the reputation of dwarves and insulted their height. These words were accidentally overheard by the dwarves. At that time, all the dwarves asked
Thorgreen launched a war, but Thorgreen did not do so. He simply sent two dwarf envoys to place the charges and diplomatic letters on the emperor's desk, and offered a price.
In the end, the war was avoided, and Count Mestes paid 10,000 gold marks for his quick words. It is not known whether the imperial nobleman regretted it afterwards.
Now, in front of Ryan, in front of the army of chivalry, the army from the Eternal Peak spread out at Haimen Pass. Those legendary "Eternal Guards" really appeared here. This army has been since the first supreme
The era of King Snorri-White Beard was established and has been passed down to this day. Each of the Eternal Guards is a true elite who can equal one to a hundred.
The four Eternal Guards carried the throne of the High King on their shoulders and shields. Thorgrim sat on the throne. He wore the dragon crown of Karaz-a-Krak on his head, held the ax of Grimnir, and wore the sword.
Kaedur's battle armor, with the Book of Hatred on the throne, a long white beard hanging down from his chin, almost covering Thorgrim's belly.
Thorgrim's face was hidden behind the huge dragon crown of Karaz-a-Karak and his long white beard, and the Book of Hatred was also placed in front of him, making it difficult for everyone to see the face of the High King.
What kind of expression is it, but the High King has already signaled him to come down: "Put it down!"
"Yes!" The four Eternal Guards lowered the throne of the Supreme King. Upon hearing Thor Green's order, the Eternal Guards immediately made way for Ryan, indicating that he could go directly to the throne.
What is the purpose of the High King appearing here? Ryan frowned, but the King of Knights still took the initiative to signal the knights to dismount. The King also took the initiative to dismount, and then used a proficient dwarf to speak to the Eternal Guards: "Bree
The Knight King of Tania, Lion Malcador, is here to meet the High King of the Dwarves, Lord Thorgrim of the Eternal Peak, the Grudge Bearer."
The dwarves were not the enemy, at least not until the Chaos and Greenskins were completely destroyed, which proved to be an impossible task.
And just when Ryan was approaching the High King, both Kalad and Francois wanted to follow, but the Eternal Guards immediately blocked their way. These High King's personal guards were quite polite, but they just faced
They shook their heads.
Seeing that it was impossible, Francois had to retreat. He waved his hand to stop Callard, who was a little anxious: "No, let's stay here and don't move."
"But, Your Excellency Duke, hasn't the High King already sent an envoy? Why is he still blocking us here?" Kalad's robe is in tatters, and the red dragon cloak behind him cannot be seen as it was before.
, but his majestic heroism and powerful strength have conquered everyone. Even the Eternal Guards are very polite to him. He is obviously a veteran on the battlefield.
"I don't know." Francois thought about it carefully and shook his head: "I think there are two possibilities."
"Two possibilities?" Veronica also quickly got off her light magic vehicle. Today, the Witch of Gloria is wearing a cabernet red wine-colored fan-leaf butterfly dress, paired with burgundy high heels and flesh-colored
Crystal stockings, she watched her man being taken away, and felt a little anxious. Different from her previous calm state, she quickly pulled Catherine out of the car and walked to Francois. Regardless of politeness, she asked directly
: "What two possibilities?"
The Holy Grail Knights and the nobles under Ryan's command gathered together, all waiting for Francois's analysis. My father-in-law had always been thoughtful and logical.
"There are only two possibilities for the Supreme King to appear here. The first is that he was not satisfied with the results of the negotiations caused by the envoy, so he came to Haimen Pass to block us in person, and wanted to negotiate with Ryan in person to determine whether we could serve the dwarves.
How much help can we provide?" Francois frowned. He stared at the Eternal Guards closely, thinking about everything: "As for the second..."
"Second?" Fedmund also came up from behind. He and his Poseidon Knights played the most important role in this battle.
"The second possibility is..." Francois looked back.
What the Duke saw was the super large convoy composed of one million dwarf gold coins, five thousand sets of rune plate armor, and twenty boxes of rare treasures that the knights escorted from the treasure house of Bafeng Mountain: "The second type
It may be that the High King does not allow the wealth of the dwarves to be touched by humans!"
"!!!" As soon as Francois said this, a smell of gunpowder spread among the knightly army. All the knights held the hilts of their swords with their hands, and even the serfs showed resistance and fierce expressions.
expression.
The dwarves also felt the change in the attitude of the expeditionary force. The Eternal Peak army immediately formed a formation and prepared for battle.
The two sides entered a state of confrontation.
However, the Eternal Guards seemed to have received orders from the Supreme King. A dwarf patriarch walked out of the crowd and signaled that they did not want to start a war: "Knights, His Majesty the Supreme King just wants to meet with His Majesty Ryan to discuss some necessary issues.
Please be calm, we swear in the name of Gruni that we will not do anything to your king. It is Valaya's will to form an alliance with the knights, and it will naturally be affirmed by His Majesty the Supreme King."
The knights relaxed and Francois took the initiative to step forward: "So... we have to stand here and wait for your meeting to end?"
"No, you can go into the city and settle down now. The High King has arranged everything." The dwarf patriarch said.
"Okay, let's enter Haimen Pass first and wait for the results." Francois nodded, and the Duke began to give orders.
The army slowly entered the city.
At this time, Ryan also came in front of the High King. Thorgreen-the Grudge Bearer looked at Ryan up and down with a very unique look without saying a word.
Ryan walked slowly to the High King under the leadership of the Eternal Guards and nodded: "It's an honor to meet you, the High King, the Lord of the Dwarf Eternal Peak, the undisputed master of Karaz-a-Karak, I am
The King of Knights of Britannia, the divinely chosen champion of the Lady of the Lake, Ryan Macado.”
The expression on the High King's face changed, and he murmured in a low voice: "I can speak Dwarvish quite well. I don't know who taught him."
After saying this, the High King reached out and raised his hand with some difficulty to shake hands with Ryan.
Ryan was a little surprised that the High King actually reached out his hand? He quickly took a big step forward, bent down and shook hands with the High King.
Thorgreen used a little force to express his enthusiasm, and then said in a soothing tone: "King of Knights, I remember this is the first time we met. I heard about you. I didn't expect that the Eight Peaks Mountain was really recovered.
Since this is Valaya's intention to form an alliance with Belegar, I won't say anything. Thank you for your help to Eight Peaks Mountain and your dedication to the dwarves. I also thank you and the knights for their enthusiasm and sacrifice. I welcome you here.
You, I think, it's time for me to come and congratulate you in person."
"Come with me!" The High King motioned to Ryan to follow him: "I have already arranged a banquet, just the two of us."
"Okay, please."
"please."
The High King had already prepared his banquet in the best dwarf hotel in Haimen Pass. The entire room was decorated magnificently. The High King signaled that he wanted to be alone with Ryan. Two eternal guards carried two iron plates.
Placed in front of their respective seats, the iron plate was hot and covered with lots of spinach, cauliflower, carrots and onions.
However, a lamb chop weighing at least two kilograms was sizzling on the iron plate, with fat splashing and fragrance overflowing. The dwarf chef came over and poured a full spoonful of black pepper sauce on it.
Then the Eternal Guard brought in a large bread basket, which was filled with royal ginger bread specially provided by the dwarf royal family, which has a unique taste.
Two barrels of Bagman dark beer were brought in from outside, along with "ancestor cheese" that even the emperor rarely had the opportunity to taste. This red paraffin-colored cheese is said to have originated from the mother of Wallaya.
It is made by God himself using goat's milk and adding many special materials. It has an excellent flavor that even elves are amazed by. It may be the most expensive food additive in the old world or even the world. Just a little bit costs five
Hundred gold crown.
"Please, don't be so formal. I'm treating you to this meal." The High King sat behind his small table and skillfully cut the lamb chops with a knife and fork: "Is this Ryan Macado? I
I remember your name. I heard Karl Franz say before that you are not bad, but we have never met... I thought we would never have the chance to meet in our lifetime. After all, the life span of inferior people is
Too short."
"Oh, really?" Ryan thought to himself, it's not certain which of us will live longer.
The King of Knights sat awkwardly directly on the ground. The dwarf's small table made him feel a little at a loss. The High King frowned at his awkward appearance and immediately called someone in to change Ryan's table and chairs to a larger one.
Raise the height of your small table and bench so that two people can continue to be parallel.
"You should have heard about my plan from Bosson, right?" The High King stretched out his fork and put a piece of cauliflower into his mouth: "How have you considered it, King of Knights of Britannia?"
"I have left part of the army to station in the Eight Peaks Mountain. I also think that it is necessary to leave some troops in the bad land to assist the dwarves in defending the enemy." Ryan also skillfully used a knife and fork to cut the lamb chops. The King of Knights was serious.
He said: "But the specific number of stations to be stationed, how to allocate troops, and how to select locations still need to be planned in detail."
"Detailed plan?" Thorgreen suddenly raised his head, and the High King's demeanor suddenly changed.
Just as the majesty of the dozens of hundreds of meters of stone pillars in the Supreme Court of Eternal Peak was released from the Supreme King, Thorgrin - the Resentment Bearer seemed to change in an instant, and his coercion seemed to penetrate the ceiling and rush straight through.
Tianji: "I'm telling you, the king of the knights, I think this matter must be settled as soon as possible. Don't delay. How to garrison the troops and how to arrange them must come up with a solution as soon as possible."
"Speaking of plans, I already have a plan. Is there any greenskin in Thor Green Badlands who hasn't fought before? You humans are too young, too simple and naive, so you still need to learn something... I don't think it's better to do this.
You can gather 100,000 people and garrison Bafeng Mountain directly! Money is not a problem, I will give you the military salary, what do you think?"
