Proof of the Sun King

The fall of the iron and steel rock brought the expedition army the last rich harvest. Hundreds of tons of obsidian were urgently transported back to Haimenguan. This extremely precious ore has been refined. It is very strong and can be enchanted, which is rare. The finest materials, whether it is for the manufacture of war machines, weapons, armor equipment or even city walls and fortresses, obsidian has amazing value.

However, in the old world, only iron and steel produced obsidian, which has been lost to the hands of greenskin for many years in the era of cataclysm, otherwise the great engineer of Haimenguan would not have thought of going to the new world to find obsidian.

Now, the obsidian mined by the greenskin in the steel rock has become the capture of Ryan and the others, and the accumulation of the Iron Claw tribe for hundreds of years has become the trophy of the expeditionary army. Ryan even found the legendary last sow in the steel rock. Eldorad's elector's golden crown, Ryan decided to return it to the empire after a little thought.

After capturing the Iron and Steel Rock, Ryan chose to loot and destroy it as always. This thousand-year-old green-skin fortress was destroyed, and then the army began to pull out its camp and slowly move south.

The army began to suffer.

Skarsnik sent a large number of wolf cavalry, constantly harassing and attacking the supply line of the army. The cunning Goblin wolf cavalry can come and go freely in the badlands. Lane and Belgar went south, hit and ran, all kinds of ambush, traps, destroyed the vanguard and scouts, and slowly disintegrated and divided the confidence and number of this expedition force.

The expedition army encountered difficulties. The further south, the environment in the badlands became worse and worse, with less and less water and fodder. The logistics depended on the supply from the direction of Haimenguan-Arsenal Fort, but after continuous attacks, Ryan and Bellega had to divide another five thousand men to protect the logistical route.

After losing 1,500 vanguards in a row, Ryan had to order the expedition to slow down and march slowly to prevent being ambushed.

The hot and dry weather made many soldiers fall ill, and the consequences of acclimatization began to appear. There were many non-combat layoffs in the army. There were fewer and fewer green fortresses along the way, and there were few things to loot. The morale of the army gradually increased. In the downturn, Ryan wanted to fight a few victories to boost his confidence, but the cunning Skarsnick didn't give him a chance at all. On the contrary, he planned to spend it with Ryan and the others. The whole bad land, the green skins in all directions kept rolling. Come, the expeditionary force fought several encounters, each with losses, but none of them encountered the main force of Skarsnick.

From Iron Rock to Valaya Sad, the expedition had walked for about three months.

Skarsnik has repeatedly set up ambush, all of which are seen by Bellegar. The scouts and reconnaissance troops of both sides have fought several times, and each other has won and lost. , desert, dry, rugged terrain and complex and changeable climate all torment this expeditionary force, and every step forward has to pay a huge price.

By August, the sweltering heat had gradually subsided, and by the time the expeditionary force arrived at Valaya's sad place, there were less than 30,000 troops left.

Fortunately, the unicorn guards sent by Francois led 5,000 people and arrived at the front line with a large number of supplies. They provided a certain amount of replenishment. The wounded soldiers were withdrawn, and the merchants took the captured and loot. The army was able to reluctantly. Lightly dressed, when the army finally approached Valaya's sadness in late August, Bellegar carefully surveyed the terrain and immediately saw through the numerous ambush set up by Skarsnik again. The King of Eight Peaks and the King of Knights personally went into battle. Completely wiped out the thousand goblin wolf cavalry that were ambushed in the mountain pass behind.

Immediately afterwards, Bellegar, who was very familiar with the terrain of the Roof Mountains of the World, took the expedition to bypass Skarsnik's ambush through a secret passage, and attacked Valaya's heartbreak first. The magic crystal cannon was under Bellegar's command. The artillery bombarded the bottom of the most vulnerable wall of this green-skin fortress, directly causing the wall to collapse. While Skarsnik was still waiting for the expedition to enter the ambush, Ryan and Bellegar had already taken the lead and entered Valaya sadly. Completely wiped out the three thousand greenskin defenders here, and set up an ambush to wait for the predicted greenskin back attack.

However, the situation was surprising. Skarsnick saw that his ambush did not work, and unexpectedly chose to retreat and disappeared into the bad land. In this way, the two sides tried back and forth for three months, always on a small scale. confrontation.

The exhausted expedition was unable to pursue the greenskins that had disappeared in the badlands. The army retreated into Valaya's sad ground, and camped and rested in the halls of the dwarven ancestors deep in the mountains.

After setting up the camp, both Ryan and Bellegar knew that time could not be delayed. Ryan led a vanguard army of about 5,000 people, and Bellegar led a vanguard army of about 2,000 people, and began to explore where the gate of Valaya was. The rest of the army was formed by Led by Karad, stationed in the Ancestral Hall, waiting for Ryan's signal.

Now, in the deep and wide dwarf underground tunnel, Veronica and Orika are behind Ryan, and Bellega is followed by the chief engineer of the Angrond clan, Halhave - the gold finder and the chief talisman. Craftsman Slud - Honest, the army marches slowly with torches in the underground tunnel.

The light is very dark, and there are no enemies around. Griffin Impris is behind Ryan, Bellegar is walking beside Ryan, and the chief rune craftsman of the Angland clan, Slud-Honest, is exploring the way ahead. , ancient dwarven runes and beacon stones, which have grown very dark, guide the direction of the army.

"Granny's beard, I can feel that something has desecrated the tunnel of our ancestors." Bellegar said to Ryan and the others: "It is a very filthy and corrosive power, obviously, before us, Someone has already been to this place, and it's strange that when the master rune craftsman closed the tunnel, it was already sealed."

In the faint firelight, the human army looked around nervously. Veronica released a small flame skull from time to time to illuminate the zenith of the underground tunnel. The army walked slowly. It took them several hours to march. Ryan With Thor's Hammer in his hand, he hung the Nemesis on his waist. After several months of marching, the Knight King's face was already a little more frosty, but his spirit was not bad: "It seems that we really have to face A new enemy, Brother Bellegar, can you confirm what force is polluting the runes?"

"I don't know, if Soric-Tiemei is here, he should be able to feel it, but I'm not a master runesmith." Bellegar felt helpless about this: "This road was told to me by Soric at the beginning, He warned me not to take this road unless I had to, because it seemed to contain a secret about the ancestors of the Valaya."

"Uh, won't we arouse the hatred of the master rune craftsman if we go this way?" Ryan was a little embarrassed. The reinforcements in the direction of Tiefengbao were an important help in the battle of Bafengshan.

"No, my ancestor, King Loen's heroic spirit allowed me to do this." Bellegar sighed: "I used to think that even if the ancestor's sacred object died, I would not use it, but After so much experience, I already understand that it may not be the original intention of the ancestors to put the sacred relics of the ancestors on the shelf and enshrine them. Evil ritual, that's the real shame."

"Yeah." Ryan nodded.

The three main gods of the dwarves are Granny, Valaya and Grimnir. The three main gods have been introduced before, so I won't repeat them here.

The three main gods of the dwarves once truly served as the supreme ruler and ruled the dwarves for thousands of years. Among them, Valaya was the common wife of Granny and Grimnir. After the invasion of Chaos was ended by Elarion, the three dwarves Grimnir, the **** of war among the main gods, decided to lead a small team to the Chaos Wasteland and close the portal of the Old Sage. At that time, all the dwarf ancestors were against it, but Grimnir well reflected the stubbornness in the bones of the dwarves. Character, he insisted on going, and then disappeared in the Chaos Wasteland.

Granny and Valaya felt pained by their dereliction of duty, and then Granny decided to pass on the eldest son born to him and Valaya, Snori-Whitebeard. After 302 years, Granny and Valaya He led the army of the dwarf ancestors to the Chaos Wasteland and tried to close the portal again. The remaining dwarves elected Snowri-Whitebeard as the first high king of the dwarves.

It is worth mentioning that it was during this period that the elven empire established a close alliance with the dwarves. Snowli-Whitebeard met Malekith, the son of the first Phoenix King, when he was fighting against the Chaos army in the wild. Destroy the last Chaos army left behind in the old world and forge a friendship. Later, the trade between elves and dwarves became more and more prosperous, and the dwarves found more and more ore veins, thus building many new fortresses.

At that time, Malekith and Snowli-Whitebeard had a good relationship so that they could wear a pair of trousers, and they could just push the door in and see what the other was doing. Malekith also became the diplomatic ambassador of the Elf Empire to Eternal Peak. Later, Snowli - When White Beard died, the first Supreme King still held Malekith's hand, telling him to remember the covenant and not betray him, Malekith agreed very seriously.

Sure enough, elves are unbelievable.

"Many parts of the leyline network have been in disrepair for a long time, and the best-protected parts are only barely passable. After thousands of years, many leylines have collapsed due to earthquakes and landslides, and other parts have also collapsed due to It fell due to the attack of foreign enemies." Bellegar carefully checked the direction of the tunnel: "Oh, I recognize these ancient marks, they are from the hands of the **** Granny, Slud, it's up to you."

"Leave it to me." The Rune Craftsman Slud - The Honest One came up to interpret the runes carefully. Only the blood of Granny can become a Rune Craftsman. Slude must be in the countless forks and paths of the leyline network. Find the correct one in the mine.

After spending hours, Slud-Honest finally found his way: "That's right, here it is, this road will lead to the Valaya Gate."

"Let's follow!" Ryan immediately motioned for the army to follow Slud. The human army and the dwarf army united and walked carefully towards the depths of the leyline network.

"God, I hate burrowing in the ground. It makes me feel like I've become a dwarf too." Veronica followed behind Ryan, and Witch Garland held the Wandini's staff in her hand, and the tip of the staff spit. The flames illuminated the surrounding environment. Even if she was a bright fire witch with strength in the sanctuary, Witch Jialan still felt extremely uncomfortable with this damp and dark environment. Judging from the expression on her face, she was very uncomfortable.

"Oh, Ms. Veronica, if you are a female dwarf, there will definitely be a lot of dwarf boys pursuing you." Bellegar made a joke. The King of Eight Peaks also knew that humans are really not suitable for the underground environment. He continued, "It's a pity you're not pretty, you're not charming enough... well, I mean, if you're a dwarf, you're a failure."

"Hehe~" Ryan couldn't help laughing.

Among dwarves, female dwarves only account for 10-20% of the total population of dwarves. Therefore, female dwarves are regarded as the key to the inheritance and reproduction of the dwarves. Any female dwarves will only receive the best protection and the highest level of rationing. It is a typical male-dominated society. Daily work, forging, and expeditions are entirely carried out by men. Female dwarves are only responsible for housework and raising children.

Due to the scarcity of female dwarves, only the most powerful warriors and craftsmen and engineers of the highest level have the opportunity to marry. In dwarven society, women are strong, thick, and muscular, with a gourd-shaped figure and a strong waist. Dwarves are recognized as "the most charming", and if a female dwarf wants to marry, the husband's beard must be able to wrap around the waist of the female dwarf, and he must be able to take out at least the weight of gold, like Veronica. Enchanting, fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged human women are the standard ugly women in the eyes of dwarves.

More than once in the dwarf Angronde clan, it is said that Brother Ryan is good in everything, but the aesthetics are very problematic.

It is worth mentioning that after marriage, female dwarves are prohibited from leaving their residence at will, and are also prohibited from engaging in the same jobs as male dwarves. All they have to do is manage money, housework, and have children. A female dwarf has a very long reproductive age. There will be many children in a lifetime, and Ryan has heard that the most female dwarves in the Angrond clan have thirty-five children in their lifetime, five of which are girls.

"When I knew this, I was shaking with rage, sweating all over my body on a hot day, my hands and feet were cold, chaos was empty, and Slaanesh was rushing in my hand, can this world be better? **What do you have to do to be satisfied, tears are unsatisfactory. Pulled it out, the world is full of oppression against **, when will ** really stand up?" Ryan said with a smile.

"...You guy, I don't want to pay attention to you now, get away from me." Veronica rolled her eyes at Ryan.

Over time, the army entered a huge underground mine, which was apparently another ancestral hall of the dwarves, but it has been abandoned for a long time.

The army entered the Ancestor Hall, and Slud-Honest recognized the ancient rune stone. He spent nearly thirty minutes to confirm it carefully, and finally heaved a sigh of relief: "Yes, it is here, all leads to the Eight Peaks Mountain. Among the ley lines of the earth, only this place is still intact, but..."

"But?" Before Ryan came to this giant gate, the highway leading to Bafeng Mountain was completely blocked by a gate composed of stone walls. The gate was inscribed with very, very ancient runes and a mural. The gate is more than 20 meters high and nearly 50 meters wide, enough for three teams of dwarves to pass side by side.

"But we need to know the cipher." Now, under the power of the Runesmith, it began to glow.

Hundreds of dazzling stars surround a world. A golden phoenix-shaped crown stands in the middle of two big trees, and below is an anvil and a hammer. The branches of the big tree are like life. The ground wrapped around the door, forming a series of words, half in Elvish and half in Dwarven.

"God, it's the mark of Granny!" Bellegar said in surprise: "This door is at least five thousand years old, Brother Ryan, come and see, those pointed ears wrote on the door some what?"

"Friend, you can pass if you speak." Ryan looked at the elf text, and then looked at the dwarf language: "It's the same here."

"Friends?" Bellegar obviously remembered the disgraceful history~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He waved the hammer of Angronde in anger: "Who are friends with these pointed ears!"

"Friend?" Ryan thought for a while, and he suddenly thought of something. The king immediately rushed to the gate and shouted in Elvish language: "Friend!"

The door remained motionless.

"Let me try?" Belgar walked up, and he said a long list of contents in dwarven language, including the name of the dwarven master god, Belgar's family orders, the ancestral oath and some deep hatred, as well as all the names of the Eight Peaks Mountain Fortress.

The door remained unresponsive.

"Strange." Bellegar became a little impatient. "Damn it, Granny's hammer, what secret words did the ancestors set on this gate?"

Everyone studied at the gate for nearly thirty minutes, but still found nothing.

Ryan was still thinking hard, but Olika came up from behind, and the dark elf stood on tiptoe and kissed Ryan's face, smiling to signal Ryan to move away: "Master, you are all wrong."

Before Orika walked to the gate of the ancestors, she changed her tone, using the language of the ancient elf empire, she said softly beside the gate full of emotion: "Our friend~"

Above the gate, the master rune of Granny and the master rune of Valaya flashed successively, and the dwarves retreated or knelt down in awe.

"Boom~" The door of the ancestors began to vibrate, emitting light, and the gears and pulleys that had not been opened for thousands of years began to work, and the huge sound echoed deep in the ground. , Just from the place where he came in, there was suddenly an extremely fishy gale, which was mixed with green-skinned roars and roars.

Thousands of greenskin troops appeared at the door of the Ancestor Hall.

Skarsnik and its Fel Moon tribe have arrived.

"Ready to fight!"
