Chapter 504 Persuasion

For the rulers, Noshir's words were almost a threat, and as a race that could survive in the Underdark for so long, the temper of the sundergivens has never been good.

The guards standing guard on the side almost instantly picked up their weapons, and some hot-tempered male elders rolled up their sleeves, waiting for King Snitik's order to drive away the uninvited guest.

But at this moment, an sundergiven with a face that was obviously old, full of wrinkles and white beard, wearing a gorgeous robe of the great elder that symbolized power, without hands, but with a warhammer and a pickaxe made of mithril, suddenly rushed in front of everyone, waving the warhammer in his right hand, without words, only gestures, and successfully stopped the violent behavior of other sundergivens that was almost on the verge of breaking out.

This is a very incredible phenomenon. With the hot temper of the underground gnomes, if someone dares to threaten their king in front of them, even if they know they can't win, they will definitely fight head-on without any hesitation, and then pull out all the smoke powder and explosives on their bodies before they die.

In this case, generally only when their king orders them to retreat, the underground gnomes will obey the order and stop the unfriendly actions that are about to happen.

When Noshier saw this scene, he guessed that the strength and prestige of the underground gnome in front of him might be even not inferior to their king to some extent, and this is the fact.

This underground gnome with an old face and very recognizable because of the weapons in his hands is the most popular hero in Blingden Stone City, the captain of the Honored Prospecting Team (meaning the highest military representative of the underground gnomes), the leader of the Snitik King's Senate, Belva Disenger.

This respectable old dwarf has participated in several key battles that were enough to determine the survival of Bryndenstone in his life. It was he who persuaded King Snitik to participate in the key battle to defeat Menzoberranzan, thus breaking the closed strategy that Bryndenstone had maintained for thousands of years.

In the life-and-death battle that determined the fate of the deep gnomes, he lost both hands under the sword of Dinin Do'Urden (Drizzt's brother) when fighting. Although the magical craftsmanship of the deep gnomes made up for his defects and replaced them with this pair of magical and expensive magic tools, it could not erase his contributions.

He has contributed a lot to his race, and because of this, all dwarves, including the king, respect him. At the same time, Belvar's thoughts are the most open and friendly among all the deep gnomes.

When other dwarves were angered by Noshier's rude words, only he figured out the interests involved at the first time. He was not confused by Noshier's unfriendly words. On the contrary, he caught a trace of sincere and friendly signals from Noshier's sharp words that revealed a sense of oppression and threat.

Yes, yes, if the uninvited guest in front of him did not lie and truly confessed everything he knew, then his purpose was indeed consistent, and he sincerely wanted to help those vampire spawn and help those poor victims survive in this very dangerous and unfriendly world. That was enough to prove that he was indeed a hero who could match those names.

Belva is 234 years old this year. In the past 200 years, the hardships he experienced with his old friend Drizzt Do'Urden have given him an extraordinary keen intuition in recognizing people. This old dwarf hero can tell whether what Noshier said is true or false.

So he was extremely sure that what Noshier said when he met them was not false at all, which meant that every word of Noshier's was true, and it also meant that everything was exactly the same as what Noshier said.

If he really wanted to say it, he didn't need to come here in advance to discuss with the underground gnomes. Anyway, whether the gnomes agreed or not, those vampire spawn would rush into the Underdark without hesitation, breaking the balance of this underground world to a great extent.

This balance is not only in the ecological sense, but also means a huge change in the social environment. With the current power used by Blingden Stone City, if these nearly 7,000 spawns really rushed in here uncontrollably without anyone knowing, it would be a real disaster.

But Noshier was able to consider the underground gnomes in advance and chose to visit them in person to discuss cooperation. Doesn't this represent unparalleled friendliness?

Bevar believed that after Noshir said that, King Snitik must have understood this truth. That was why, when Bevar stopped the other deep gnomes, this old hero who was very famous in Blingdenstone City immediately came to greet him politely.

After a friendly conversation with Noshir, he promised to do his best to persuade the king and the parliament to carefully consider this proposal, and then asked the guards to prepare an independent stone chamber (the society of deep gnomes is a very united society, even so united that there is almost no privacy. Most of the deep gnomes live together as families, so independent stone chambers are very rare), and politely sent Noshir down.

Noshil temporarily accepted this arrangement obediently. He knew that even if he had explained the pros and cons to the dwarves, they would not be able to give him an answer in a short time. However, given the current difficulties faced by the city.

For example, the restlessness of other evil forces in the underground world, the possible unrest caused by the influx of nearly 7,000 spawns into the underground world, the lack of defense forces in the city, Bevar, a rational and open-minded person, and a wise king who could listen to the advice of others, all these conditions combined were enough to make Noshil feel that the possibility of the passage of this treaty was very high.

So Noshil was willing to wait leisurely for a few days, waiting for them to discuss the final result. During this time, Noshil could also take a good look at this underground city that was completely different from the surface world and experience the customs and customs of the underground dwarves.

During this time, King Snitik and his House of Representatives were not idle at all, just as Noshil encountered.
