Chapter 635 Eye of Gruumsh

Titus' expression became more solemn. The dwarf king was asking for help, which meant that he had completely given up on his life and was ready to die calmly.

Gu Jinlong lowered his head, regret revealed in his pale golden pupils, and his voice became heavier: "Your Majesty Ed, have you really made a decision?"

"Of course." Ed replied with a smile. "My time is running out. Instead of being a weak waste, it is better to die on the battlefield like a real warrior, just like my father To'o Klein, who fought the enemy to the death. "

Titus sighed softly and wanted to persuade: "Since this is a hopeless war, why not take your people and migrate?"

"No, you don't understand the dwarves, Lord Titus. We shield dwarves have lived here for generations. Avendeldan is our home and our tomb."

Ed shook his head, stretched out his rough hand, and touched the ancient dwarven words on the wall: "A long time ago, Baiend Klein, the first king of the mountain, brought the war-torn shield dwarves to this land for the first time. land.

For thousands of years, we have mined ores, forged weapons, and drank fine wine in the Blackrock Mountains. We are familiar with the land, rocks, and mineral veins here. Every mine and tunnel here was carved out by the dwarves with a pickaxe and a hammer. of

Abandoning Avendeldan and Blackstone Mountain is tantamount to abandoning our homeland and betraying our ancestors - this is something that no brave and loyal dwarf can do. "

At the end, the dwarf king's voice became more sonorous and powerful, like the crisp sound of a hammer hitting the rock.

After hearing this, Titus had already seen the other party's determination and knew that he could no longer dissuade the mountain king, so he had no choice but to reply: "Your Majesty Ed, I agree to your request."

"Hahahaha, okay, Lord Titus, our dwarf family will remember your kindness, and you will be our forever friend!" Hearing this, Ed laughed heartily and tied the war hammer around his waist again. .

Dwarves often say, "The difference between an acquaintance and a friend is about a hundred years." It is difficult for short-lived humans to forge a truly solid relationship with dwarves. The best dwarf-human friendship occurs when a human and someone who likes him or her like him. Between parents and grandparents of dwarves.

But the dwarf king also knew that compared to the long-lived dragon, dwarves were also extremely short-lived. As the true dragon with the longest life span, the golden dragon is also difficult to forge a stable relationship with the dwarves.

Although Titus once fought side by side with Ed and could barely be considered a "life and death friend", this was nothing to a giant dragon.

Ed did not hide his intentions, but stretched out two thick fingers and said seriously: "Sir Titus, I only hope that you can protect those children for two hundred years.

Two hundred years, for a golden dragon like you, may be just a nap, but for us dwarves, it is already more than half a lifetime.

During this time, let them serve you and work for you. If they have not been able to recapture Avendeldan in two hundred years, then let them set up another place and find a place to survive with the civilization of the shield dwarves. "

"good."

Gu Jinlong didn't say much, he just nodded solemnly.

Although strictly speaking, he is much younger than the dwarf in front of him, but from the perspective of the golden dragon, this is not a harsh condition.

But Ed's words are not over yet: "Of course, I can't let you protect them in vain. You can choose from the treasures accumulated by our dwarves for thousands of years, and you can own one-third of them."

"This, this is a bit too..."

Suddenly, Gu Jinlong's face showed surprise, and his pale golden eyes showed hesitation and greed. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should refuse.

Just like any kind-hearted metal dragon, they also have the greedy nature of dragons, but they also have a very high moral bottom line.

You must know that the dwarves have always valued gold, gems, jewelry and works of art made from these precious raw materials. Although their greed for treasures is not as greedy as that of the dragons, it is by no means less.

Ed saw Jin Long's thoughts and smiled boldly again, stroking his thick brown beard: "Sir Titus, although I believe in your moral level, interests are the best means of binding. You deserve these treasures. .

Even if I don't give these treasures to you, they will most likely fall into the hands of the Ember Empire. It would be better to give them to a truly kind person.

not to mention."

Ed paused, strode to the end of the secret room, and used his rough hands to press the iron door covered with dwarven words. The runes on it suddenly lit up: "I still have something important to entrust to you." To you."

"boom--"

With a dull roar, the iron door slowly opened, and a light suddenly appeared behind the door. The golden light shone on the dwarf's face, and the scales of the golden dragon shone brightly.

I saw bright lights in the library, illuminating every treasure. The golden coins are piled up into a hill, and the light is dazzling, as if it can reflect the eyes of the greedy. Rare gemstones such as rubies, sapphires, and emeralds compete with each other in the light and are dazzling.

In the treasure house, in addition to gold and silver treasures, there are also various exquisite weapons and accessories. Every piece of work reveals the exquisite ingenuity of the dwarf craftsmen. Whether it is an extremely sharp sword or a gorgeously decorated ring, they all contain the dwarves' pursuit of beauty and worship of strength.

This is the treasure house that the dwarves have guarded for generations, the treasure that the dwarves of the Alpine Kingdom have accumulated over thousands of years.

Under the brilliance of this treasure house, the dwarf king's face was engraved with the traces of time. His eyes shuttled between these fruits of labor, as if he was recalling bits and pieces of the past years.

Even Titus couldn't help but open his mouth, his whiskers fluttering, and exclaimed, "Your Majesty Ed, this is really amazing wealth."

Seeing the shocked reaction on the golden dragon's face, Ed nodded with great satisfaction, feeling extremely proud of the dwarves' wealth - this was a wealth that stunned the golden dragon!

"Of course, Lord Titus, when my father first brought me here, I was so surprised that I couldn't even walk. I almost fainted in this treasure house."

The dwarf was the first to enter the treasure house, and after hesitating for a moment, the ancient golden dragon lowered his head, folded his wings, struggled through the gate, and also got into the treasure house.

The dwarf and the golden dragon walked one behind the other in this trance-like pile of treasure.

Titus couldn't help but look around, observing the gold coins, gems, and magic equipment around him.

Those gold coins piled up into hills, the gems were like stars dotted in the night, and the magical aura emitted by the equipment complemented each other. Among them, there were twenty pieces of legendary level equipment, including knives, swords, giant axes, war hammers, and armors. The variety dazzled him.

Relying on the dragon's naturally powerful valuation skills, in just a few minutes, Titus, or Cassius, roughly estimated the value of this treasure house - more than 20 million gold coins!

It is indeed a treasure accumulated by the dwarves for thousands of years. Even for the Burning Empire, which has achieved industrialized mass production and dumped goods all over Fiantho, this is a huge wealth!

Unfortunately, these wealth will soon belong to an evil and greedy red dragon.

Titus's breathing was rapid, and he felt his whole body getting hot. He even had the urge to kill the dwarf king on the spot and take possession of the treasure trove.

But he soon calmed down, because sooner or later this treasure house would belong to him, so there was no need to be impulsive, not to mention that Ed wanted him to keep something important.

Gu Jinlong calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty Ed, for allowing me to enter such a place."

This is the sincerity shown by Ed, leading a dragon into the treasure house. Everyone knows what this means - absolute trust.

The dwarf king wants to build a solid bond between the ancient golden dragon and the shield dwarf and get real protection. This is a necessary price.

"Lord Titus, I have said before that I believe in your character and you will always be a solid ally of our dwarves." Ed said firmly and forcefully.

At this time, Gu Jinlong's majestic and wise face was full of emotion, as if coming from his heart. It can only be said that his acting skills have reached their peak.

Arriving at the end of the treasure house and entering a secret room carved with various runes, the dwarf stopped in front of an inconspicuous wall and stared ahead with a solemn expression.

Then, he took out the knife he carried with him, cut his finger, smeared the blood on the wall, drew mysterious dwarf symbols, and muttered words.

"Moura above, in the name of the King of the Mountain, the ruler of the shield dwarves, and the blood of Blackstone Mountain"

Suddenly, the symbol drawn with blood suddenly lit up, and the surrounding runes all glowed faintly. The dwarves on the reliefs seemed to come to life, waving the weapons in their hands and letting out angry war roars.

"boom--"

I saw a platform made of black iron slowly rising from the ground, with a broken stone inlaid on it, which looked like part of an eye, exuding an extremely vicious aura.

In an instant, Gu Jinlong's eyes widened, and his golden pool-like vertical pupils revealed unprecedented surprise and astonishment. He couldn't help but murmur to himself: "This, this... how is it possible? Bahamut is on top, I Thought it was just a legend.”

The item introduction of this "stone" has already appeared in his eyes.

[Eye of Gruumsh (1/2)]

Quality: Myth

Domains: Chaos, Evil, Power, War

Effect: unknown

Summary: The orcs harbor a unique hatred for Corellon Larethian, Moradin, and their followers. According to legend, Corellon Larethian blinded Gruumsh's left eye in a battle many years ago.

Of course, there are some orc priests who question this legend and regard it as nonsense. They believe that the elven god stole the eye because he would never be able to defeat Gruumsh in a fair fight.

In Orc Lore, Gruumsh and the Elf God Corellon. Larethian's lost eye in battle became an artifact. The elves scoffed at the story, saying that Corellon. Larethian completely destroyed Gruumsh's eyes.

Ed stared at the incomplete stone and unconsciously raised his chest, his tone full of pride: "Sir Titus, you are indeed well-informed. You guessed it right - this is the stone." part of the eye.

Thousands of years ago, the Father God and the Elven Lord God joined forces to defeat the Orc God, blinded him, and divided him into two pieces, which were sealed in the Mountain Kingdom and Serenia respectively - and this is one of them. "

Titus looked at the stone that exuded chaos and evil power, and his heart was already filled with turmoil, and there were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

This is a part of a powerful god, and its value is far greater than the treasures in this treasury combined! Titus, or Cassius, must get it!

No wonder the orcs in the previous life made rapid progress in strength after conquering Avendeldan, and even set off a terrible "Orc Disaster". It turned out that they found the sacred object of their race!

At this point, the dwarf king's tone became gnashing: "But now, the orc god has used dirty means to cut off our contact with the father god, so that the father god's power cannot come to the world.

And now, the Burning Empire in the southwest is eyeing it covetously and may launch an invasion at any time. I can only entrust it to our most trusted ally-that is you."

Titus calmed down his overly excited heart again and continued to test: "Your Majesty Ed, since Serenia keeps the other half of the eye, why don't you entrust it to the elves?

They have formed a sacred alliance with you dwarves for thousands of years and have always been your solid allies. They are far more reliable than me."

Ed shook his head and explained: "The two incomplete eyes of Gruumsh must not be put together. If I do that, if the orcs capture Serenia, they can get the complete eye of Gruumsh, and the consequences will be disastrous.

What's more, Serenia is facing an unprecedented turmoil, and I cannot predict who will win in the end.

I trust Her Majesty Catherine and Lord Rhea, but I cannot trust those elven elders who do not abide by the Holy Alliance and stand idly by to us dwarves. "

Finally, the dwarf king raised his head and stared at the pale golden eyes of the ancient golden dragon: "This half eye contains unimaginable evil power. Only the blood of the shield dwarf royal family can seal this evil from the orc god.

Sir Titus, I hope you can keep it well and never let it fall into the hands of evil people, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous and will definitely set off a multiverse-level disaster. "

"Don't worry, I will protect it with my life. "

Titus lowered his head, spread the dragon wings behind him, and looked at the dwarf king with the unique etiquette of the golden dragon. His tone was particularly solemn, and his golden vertical pupils showed unprecedented determination.

However, at this moment, Titus, or Cassius, was not thinking in such a high-sounding and righteous way as he said - he just wanted to take the two incomplete Eyes of Gruumsh. (End of this chapter)
