Chapter 1119, Eternal Peak King Clan Conference
"Warhammer Throne ()"
The high elves had a hasty meeting to discuss how to rescue the little queen. The high lord of Tyrion quickly summoned all available troops, took away most of the legendary heroes and elites in Ulthuan, and headed towards the old world at full speed. When you come.
Old World, Roof of the World, Eternal Peak, Dwarven Ancestral Hall, Throne Hall.
After many, many years, the Dwarf Kings Clan Conference was held again, and everyone discussed the same content as Gao Jing's, that is, about the disappearance of the elf envoys and dwarf envoys, and the disappearance of the little queen Alisara. matter.
Beneath the spires of gold, under the gaze of the Colossus of the Dwarf God, in every hall and corridor of the mighty Karaz-a-Karak resounded the majestic sound of drums and horns.
Hundreds of coffins were sent to the cemetery under the chanting of the eternal guards and dwarf priests. The best dwarf beer was sprinkled on the thick stone surface. The collected remains of the dwarves were sent to the cemetery.
The dwarves marched silently, and above the long procession the last climax of the drums echoed in the halls and corridors.
With tears in his eyes, the High King Thorgrim-the Grudger walked up to his distant nephew, Dorin-Iron Helm, whose body was already broken. The body of this dwarf warrior had been poured with gold and silver. Erglin opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just glanced at his distant nephew again, and nodded silently: "Let you go ahead, Dorin, you are a good person, and you are not ashamed of the dwarves." title."
There was no chants, and there was no crying. There was only silence, which was extremely depressing and filled with endless hatred. Every participating dwarf warrior clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. The white beards of the long-bearded elders trembled, as if planning to Engraved this scene deep in my mind.
The Marquis of Badlands and Marshal Lucien of Brittania looked at the scene in front of him, his expression was complicated and he was very uncomfortable.
"Have you never seen such a large-scale dwarf funeral?" The voice of Bellegar, the king of Eight Peaks Mountain, sounded from beside Lucien, and Lord Belle came from the side with his queen Komanik. In the voice of the King of Eight Peaks Mountain, With deep sorrow and relief, he also took a large glass of dwarf beer from Angrund's sworn guards, strode forward, and sprinkled it on the coffins of several dwarves. Bellegar said loudly: " Warriors, drink in the halls of the ancestors and in the other world! May the living stand tall, and may the dead rest in peace! May the mountains and mines echo our voice forever!"
"May the living stand tall, may the dead rest in peace, and may the mountains and mines echo our voice forever!" All the dwarves toasted.
Dry!
Marshal Lucien and his personal guard, about a hundred Varyag guards, also raised their glasses together. These guys who lived in the badlands and mountains no longer looked like knights, but a group of green skins. The big guy is more arrogant and braver like a gangster, with a two-handed axe in his hand, it is much more convenient to chop green skins!
After the ceremony, the Dwarf King Clan Conference was officially held in the Throne Hall of Eternal Peak.
The participating dwarf kings are:
Karaz-a-Karak, Thorgrim, the High King of Eternal Peak, the Grudger.

These are the main dwarf kings,
There are also some kings of small dwarf cities (with a population of no more than 1,000 people), so I won’t go into details here.
In addition to the meeting of the kings, the chief engineer of the Eternal Peak dwarves, Graham Brockson, and the president of the Rune Craftsmanship Association, Clark Harsh, were also present.
Lucien and Durant accompanied the last seat, as Belegar's vassals, sitting behind Belegar, with the eternal guards on the left, Kadrin's demon butchers on the right, Angrond's sworn guards in front, Eight Peaks Mountain After the recovery, there were many new faces in the Oath Guards. After the mustaches experienced many times of blood and fire, some people began to be considered as eligible to serve in the Oath Guards.
It is a special reward for this group of humans to participate in the meeting of the dwarven kings' clan. In this way, Thorgreen intends to praise and thank the three guardians of the badlands for their recent major contribution.
Just two months ago, at the foot of the Black Mountains, the famous dwarf brewery in the depths of the Border Princeland - Bagman Brewery was attacked by a large group of green-skinned goblin nomadic tribes. At that time, Master Bagman was He personally delivered fifty cars of Bagman XX fine black leather wine to the emperor Karl Franz. The defenders were quickly defeated by the green leather, and the winery almost fell.
And it just so happened that Durant, the border baron of Brittania who was humiliated by the high-level elite at Haimen Pass, passed by with his hundreds of soldiers of the Badlands Three Guards who originally planned to escort the little queen, and saw the black smoke soaring into the sky. The soldiers of the armory guard reacted quickly and decided to rescue the Bagman Brewery, driving away the greenskins at a critical moment and defending the brewery.
Durant and his soldiers probably didn't think they had done anything earth-shattering. When Master Bagman came back and held hands to thank Durant, the border baron was still joking, saying that if he really wanted to thank me, he would just thank him. Just be polite and take me to Eternal Peak for a visit.
In the end, Master Bagman patted his chest and agreed, and today's trip to the Eternal Peak was possible, and all the dwarf kings, including the king of Torrent Pass who disliked humans the most, Barentin-Heart of Stone, came to express their gratitude.
It can only be said that humans still don't fully understand what a good, delicious, thick beer means to a dwarf.
After various brief ceremonies and High King Thorgreen's routine opening remarks, the High King began to talk about the things that everyone was most concerned about.
"According to the current information, we can basically confirm that the murderer is the last vampire count, Manfred von Carstein, and he and his army of undead created and brought about this tragedy, Grand My lord, we will have revenge, and a new chapter will be added to the book of hatred." Thorgrim's white beard was stained with beer foam, and the High Dynasty said to the crowd: "This is a very difficult time for the dwarves. A heavy blow, Valaya, a thousand excellent dwarves just fell down, which made our original plan to explore the underground of Karak-Van and try to regain the Red Eye Mountain once again. Let it go."
"Damn undead!" Bellega was the first to roar, and the king of Bafeng Mountain hammered the resistance shield with his fist, and cursed angrily: "According to the reports from the three guards of the evil land and the exploration of the rangers of Bafeng Mountain, this group of The undead went south, further south than Longya Fort, without stopping all the way."
"The undead obviously came with a purpose. It is not clear what conspiracy they have to kidnap the little queen with pointed ears." Baiernov-Dragon Hammer, king of Haimenguan, asked Belega: "King Belega, what do you have?" Do you have an idea?"
"Bairnov, someone passed by you, come here and ask me now?" Bellega shook his hand impatiently, but still motioned to the oath guards behind him to take out a piece that was chopped up and had jagged cracks. dwarven armor, and handed it over to all to see.
The armor was passed around among the dwarf kings.
"This rift... is Gul!"
"That's right! It's him!"
"It's Gul, the hateful executioner, Grimnir, is there really no way to kill it completely?"
The dwarves have fought N times with Gul, the four gods of chaos who were resurrected and controlled by the undead. Almost every dwarf kingdom has Gul's name on the book of hatred.
"Gul's participation means that besides Manfred, other undead forces also participated in this operation." Butcher King Agrim-Iron Fist held the broken armor in his hand and threw it After handing it over to his son, the Butcher King thought for a while, and said to the High King: "My High King, the dwarves must keep their hatred in mind and fulfill our oath, we should start to act!"
"Start to act, tell me, Agrim, how do we start to act?" Thorgrim-the Grudger kept frowning, and the High King was flipping through the book of great hatred, on which a lot of hatred had been liquidated, But there is also a lot of unaccounted for hatred: "We don't even know where the dead are."
"But we know where the pointy ears are!" roared Auric Raphson, King of Hornburg, "kill them now, it's all the pointy ears' fault! If it weren't for receiving their envoys, the dwarves would not have been killed. To such a loss!"
The King of Torrent Pass, Balentine-Heart of Stone, was also very excited: "I said 200 years ago that Pointy Ears are a group of losers who will mess up everything if they are not fed enough, my High King, look at them except What else do they do but play tricks all day and make things worse? Humans are better than pointy ears, I say."
"It cannot be tolerated!" King Kazador-Dragon Hammer of Iron Peak Castle also said: "Your Majesty, give the order."
"Yes, Your Majesty, order, we will use hammer and tomahawk to cleanse the hatred!"
"The oath of vengeance must be kept."
"Immediately send an envoy to question the high elves, what are their intentions?"
"Blood, must be repaid with blood!"
High King Thorgrim-The Grudger first patted the table, signaling for everyone to be quiet: "Be quiet."
"..." The dwarf kings stopped arguing, and all looked up at Thorgreen who was sitting on the high throne.
"Trivial hatred and meaningless disputes will only bring doom to the dwarves." Thorgreen shook his head, and the High Dynasty asked everyone: "I ask you a few questions, kings of the dwarves."
"First, Dolin-Iron Helmets, were they killed by Pointed Ears?"
"Secondly, did the high-precision envoys and the Eternal Little Queen come here uninvited?"
"Third, where did the high-precision envoys come from?"
None of the dwarf kings answered.
"What? They all screamed so fiercely and energetically before, so they stopped talking now?" Thorgrim let out a sneer from the depths of his nostrils, and the High King's expression softened immediately: "Belgar, what did you say before?" Loudest, say it."
"Duo Lin and the others... were killed by the undead. The high-spirited envoys... visited the old world with the consent of Walaya and His Majesty. They landed at Haimen Pass and were led by the border prince." Bafengshan King Belegar could only speak, and he sighed: "Poor my family, suffering from such a catastrophe."
"Then the question is very clear, Agrim, tell me, are we responsible for this matter?" Thorgreen turned to the Butcher King.
The Butcher King cursed in a low voice, but no one understood what he was saying.
"Agrim?"
"According to the Great Book of Hate, as long as the envoys arrive at the dwarves' territory and are received by the dwarves, it is equivalent to entering the place of the dwarves and being protected by the dwarves. If something happens, in theory, it should be us dwarves. responsibility." Seeing that the Butcher King didn't answer, Bellega rushed to answer, and the King of Eight Peaks Mountain touched his white beard and shook his head helplessly: "No matter what you say, yes, we dwarves did not protect well."
This Bellegar is really getting more and more arrogant now, Thorgreen thought to himself.
However, the High King has no time to attack Belegar now. After all, Belegar is one of the very few dwarf kings who have successfully regained their ancestral kingdom, and now the grand leyline hub needs to be maintained and guarded by Belegar. Thorgreen followed Belegar's words He continued: "Belgar is right. The dwarves will never forgive any hatred, but they will never evade any responsibility. Since we invited Sharp Ears and something happened on our territory, it is the responsibility of the dwarves. At this time, looking for sharp ears to so-called revenge is neither emotional nor reasonable."
"But..." the president of the Rune Craftsmanship Association, Clark the Harsh looked at the High King in disbelief: "That's the end of this matter? That's Dorin and a thousand dwarf warriors!"
"I didn't say so, let's forget it." Thorgreen explained to Clark the Harsh One: "But the dwarves didn't protect well after all. The invited guest had an accident in his own house. Don't you blame the master? Strange guest?"
"Yes, it's just that I suspect that Pointy Ears has some kind of collusion or conspiracy. I won't trust these guys." Clark-Stern is very conservative and stubborn, but it also means that he respects honor and Tradition.
"I will send someone to find out about this." Thorgreen said to the dwarf kings: "Remember, before the matter is investigated clearly, no one is allowed to take revenge on the sharp ears or the undead. The undead are powerful and the sharp ears have an attitude. I don't know, what we need at this time is as hard and steady as a rock."
"Yes!" All the dwarf kings nodded.
Bayernov-Dragon Hammer, the king of Haimenguan, thought for a while and asked: "But Your Majesty, Pointy Ears will definitely not be indifferent. What if they come to question us and attack us?"
"This is indeed a problem, but before Pointy Ears comes to us, it will definitely pass through the territory of humans." The High King nodded: "Send an envoy in advance and ask, if there is anything we can help, try not to let The battle of revenge is repeated, but if they want to fight, we will fight to the end."
All the dwarf kings answered loudly: "I will accompany you to the end!"
"Oh, by the way, the knights and soldiers of the three guards of the evil land should not participate in these events, and follow Bellegar back to Mount Eight Peaks." Thorgreen then ordered Lucien and Durant, and the High King frowned: " I know pointy ears, they must be full of anger and have nowhere to vent at this time, at this time, what you do is wrong, don't get involved, this matter is the dwarf's business, and the anger is borne by the dwarves! You are all dwarves My friend, a dwarf will not put a friend in a dilemma."
"Thank you so much!" Both Lucien and Durant got up to express their thanks.
Thorgrim-The Grudger turned his gaze to the heights of the ancestral hall of Eternal Peak. Under the dome that is almost exactly the same as the Phoenix Court of the High Elf Lothern, there are dozens of thick tapestries painted with ancient stories. Many tapestries It has been seriously faded or missing, but it can still be seen vaguely. It is a story of a strong dwarf king and a dragon-riding elf general fighting against the chaos.
For thousands of years, the old friendship is gone, leaving only endless hatred and their own decline.
"My lord, Lord Snorri, please guide you to the descendants of the royal bloodline of Durazkarad!"
