Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 86:

After receiving the affirmative reply from Sui Xiong, the **** of runes hurried away happily. It seemed that he was about to rush back to the “Mountain of Eternity”, the kingdom of the dwarf gods, and discuss cooperation with the other gods. The problem.

This is an expression of sincerity, and Sui Xiong is very happy.

But after another thought, he felt a little puzzled–what is the value of this iron armor that can resist the big cracking technique? Is it worth the dwarf gods to jump out on the cusp of this storm and cooperate with him?

The so-called internal affairs do not decide to ask Baidu, foreign affairs do not decide to ask Google, Sui Xiong now has neither Baidu nor Google, but he knows some well-informed friends.

Those who live for a long time and see more are the gods of the water element; those who have many friends and are knowledgeable are the gods of pleasure.

This matter seems to have nothing to do with history, so naturally we should find Vie, the **** of pleasure with many friends.

Weiye listened carefully to Sui Xiong’s narration, and asked for some details. He nodded as he listened, and finally laughed.

“No problem.” He said, “My friend, the sincerity of the dwarves is beyond doubt, and their need for your new armor is beyond doubt.”

“But, why?”

“That’s a long story.” Viyer smiled and conjured up tables, chairs and wine utensils, filled each other with wine, “We can drink and talk.”

The thing is this: As a brave and combative race, dwarves are very powerful. However, because of their poor talents in magic control, this family has always had a lot of deficiencies in the field of spellcasters. As we all know, in wars, especially large-scale wars, the caster is indispensable. To put it more seriously, an army that lacks enough support from spellcasters will be hit with fatal flaws when encountering a high-intensity war.

In order to solve this problem, the dwarves put forward an interesting idea-we can’t make a large number of spellcasters emerge from the people, then we will study how to fight the spellcasters!

Based on this idea, they finally developed a special unit, the Dwarf Spellbreaker.

This is a kind of rune mage, wearing heavy armor, armor has been specially processed, has strong resistance to spells, and they also have a certain ability to cast spells, they can rely on runes to cast them at critical moments. Several of the most important spells are basically enough to deal with various situations.

With the help of rune spells, once the dwarven spellbreakers enter the battlefield, they will roar into the enemy’s formation with the momentum of the tiger descending the mountain, disrupting the enemy’s formation. Or they will directly attack the enemy’s spellcaster forces, so that even if the casters escape by chance, they will never want to provide help to their comrades in arms, thus dragging each other into the situation of “without spell assistance”.

In this case, the dwarf will not attack any enemies!

But the dwarves spellbreakers also have their fatal injuries, that is, they can’t fight the big split.

It is true that the big split is a high-level spell. At least high-level mages can cast this spell. Don’t worry about this in the middle and low-level battles.

But…in the middle and low-level battles, there was no need to dispatch dwarves spellbreakers. Once dispatched to this rare unit, the number of which is only counted as “ten”, it will definitely be a crucial battle.

In such a critical battle, it is definitely not difficult for the enemy to gather up a few high-level mages and perform a dozen or so major splits.

Large cleavage can be used on a single body to strengthen its power, or it can be used on a range to form a powerful spell area. For a spellbreaker wearing a heavy armor of magic, it is natural to die directly if he is directly hit by a big split. Even if it only stays within the range of the big split for a few seconds, it will be a huge loss. ——They themselves can probably resist the damage of the great splitting technique by virtue of their strong physique and God’s blessing, because this spell does not do much damage to creatures, but their armor is not good. The kind of special-made can resist most of the spells. The armor will be completely damaged and fall apart.

The dwarven spellbreakers without armor are nothing more than a group of powerful warriors who also practiced the rune mages. What’s worse, they will be defenseless, and both runes and weapons will be destroyed by the big cracking technique.

The Dwarf Kingdom is located in the middle of the Broken Cloud Mountains, bordering the Eagle Kingdom, the Griffin Duchy, the Kingdom of Thousand Springs, and the Primordial Forest. In the past, they fought with the elves, and then the elves declined, and they fought with the humans who came from behind. In previous wars, the dwarves magic-breakers made outstanding contributions, but they suffered heavy losses. After every attack, none of them can come back alive.

What’s worse, with the improvement of magic technology, the difficulty of using the big splitting technique is also decreasing. In the past, this spell could only be cast by a mage close to the legendary level. Now due to the needs of war, this spell has been continuously studied. In the Kingdom of Thousand Springs, special magic circles and magic tools have appeared to allow those who have just entered the realm of legends. The mage can also cast this spell smoothly.

With the “popularity” of the big cracking technique, the dwarf kingdom is losing ground on the high-end battlefield. Their warriors are brave, they are not afraid of the enemy or sacrifice, but courage alone is not enough. In the past hundreds of years, the dwarven kingdom has been captured by the land of a thousand springs, and the dwarves who sacrificed for it The warriors are even more numerous.

Shortly before Sui Xiong’s landing, the Dwarf Kingdom fought a fierce battle with the Kingdom of Thousand Springs. The dwarves were defeated, and even the contemporary dwarf kings were killed in battle-he himself was a dwarf spellbreaker. At the most critical moment of the battle, he brought more than twenty spellbreakers to charge together, trying to break the country of a thousand springs. The wizard group, but died under the big cracking technique.

In fact, if it hadn’t been for the turmoil of the main plane these years, the country of a thousand springs would have already launched another attack on the Broken Cloud Mountain Range.

Anyway, their expansion goal is nothing more than two directions, either Broken Cloud Mountain Range or Primordial Forest. The former needs to fight dwarves, the latter needs to fight elves, for humans, they are similar.

The dwarf gods are naturally worried about this, but they have nothing to do. It is true that they can bring down more graces and promote more priests and paladins, but the talents of the dwarves are there, and the competition of spellcasters is absolutely impossible to beat humans.

They can also try to roll up their sleeves and end in person, but then they have to face the human gods. Among other things, facing the once God of Vengeance, the current Lord of Radiance, they are not sure that any one of them will be able to withstand it.

In this way, the last option left for the dwarven gods is to take the people who believe in them to leave the main plane and migrate to other worlds. Like many races that lost in the battle for hegemony on the main plane, finding a world far away from the main plane to settle down and quietly **** the wounds is also a way.

However, that means that their people will lose the favorable conditions of the main plane-apart from anything else, research has long proved that if the main plane race settles on other planes, not only the fertility will be greatly reduced. , The population will slowly deteriorate.

In other words, moving away is tantamount to chronic suicide.

Of course, the situation in the Dwarf Kingdom has not yet reached the most critical moment. Relying on the location of the Broken Cloud Mountain Range, they can still entangle with the Kingdom of Thousand Springs for a period of time, maybe hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years… But, If the problem of being unable to fight against the big cracking technique cannot be solved, it is nothing more than death sooner or later.

Perhaps the dwarves can also learn from the dwarf, abandon the country, and spread the ethnic group to the main plane. But that is not in line with their culture, in line with their traditions, and in line with their values. They are unwilling to do this when the mountains and rivers are over.

“In this case, they saw your special armor.” Vier drank the wine in the glass, then picked up the bottle, only to find that the bottle was empty, and he had to sigh regretfully. He sighed, “It is conceivable that they will attach much importance to this kind of armor that can withstand the big cracking technique, make up for the last shortcoming of the dwarf spellbreaker, and enable the dwarf kingdom to resist the invasion of the kingdom of a thousand springs!” /

“Let me say that the **** of runes only talks about’cooperation’, which is obviously still a bit conservative. Maybe next, the dwarf gods will discuss the design and manufacture of this armor with you in detail, and finally complete some samples…wait for the samples to be completed, After the performance is confirmed, it is time for them to make a big bet!”

Weyer smiled and stood up: “At that time, I’m afraid it will not be as simple as ‘cooperation’. I guess, it may be ‘alliance’.”

Sui Xiong thought for a while, and couldn’t help frowning.

The dwarves and humans are at war. The attack of the Kingdom of Thousand Springs on the Broken Cloud Mountain Range clearly has human gods behind them.

Do you really want to support the dwarf gods and fight against the human gods?

He hesitated.

Farewell to Vie, who had run out of Jiuxing and Tan Hindu, Sui Xiong fell into contemplation.

He thought, weighed, and wondered what he should do.

But he still couldn’t make up his mind.

After much consideration, he decided to gather the core members of the church to discuss this matter.

Brainstorming may not be a particularly good method, but at least it will not be particularly bad.

The senior members of the Masked Void Church received Sui Xiong’s oracle and quickly gathered and held this temporary meeting.

At the meeting, Sui Xiong explained the causes and consequences of this incident in detail, and then asked everyone for their opinions.

“Not worth it.” The chief priest Leon Igor first shook his head, “The dwarf gods obviously cannot beat the human gods. It is unwise to offend the human gods in order to win them over.”

“In fact, it’s not bad.” Knight Chief Gerald said, “Your Majesty’s power is enough to bridge the gap between the dwarf gods and the human gods, plus your allies… so that the advantages and disadvantages are reversed. Up.”

“But that will pay a very high price.” Said Rod, who is already gray-haired and so old that he is a little slow in his actions, said, “A big price!”

The chief mage Satan smiled: “The price is not a problem. The question is, is the friendship and alliance of the dwarves worth the price we paid?”

“In fact, it’s not bad. For a long time, although Your Majesty is very strong, our Void Mask Church or the Northwest Republic have lacked sufficient deterrence. If we can take advantage of this opportunity to show deterrence, There will be a lot less trouble in the future.” said Palin, who succeeded him as the leader of the mage regiment because of Satan’s retreat.

This statement made many people’s eyes shine, and the head of the medical team, Steier, immediately supported it. She bluntly said that to show strength is to fight, and fighting will not only kill people, but also cause a lot of damage. If you have to fight anyway, instead of fighting at your own door, you might as well go to someone else’s house to fight. Even if something breaks, it won’t make you feel distressed.

Ferex, the grand consul of the Republic, also agreed with this view. In order to show his strength, he must find an opponent to fight a battle. Going to the Broken Cloud Mountains to fight a battle with the Kingdom of Thousand Springs, although the logistical pressure will be greater, at least it will not damage the infrastructure of the Republic.

The spy chief instructor East, who has just joined the inner circle, considers the problem from another angle. He said: “Our Republic is a country that advocates enlightenment and tolerance. This makes the ethnicity of our country’s residents very chaotic, regardless of Is it an orc or a human, a dwarf or a dwarf, even an organization from another world, or even a monster… As long as we hold goodwill, we welcome him to join our country and become our brothers and sisters. This national policy, and the human race The guiding ideologies of the dwarves, dwarves, and even any race on the continent are in conflict. So I think we should help those relatively weak races to shape our positive image. As for those powerful races… anyway, conflicts between each other are inevitable. Yes, even if we compromise and retreat now, do we really have to change our national policy in the future to cater to their preferences?”

This statement made many people fall into contemplation~IndoMTL.com~ Even Sui Xiong didn’t consider this aspect, and everyone was thinking silently for a while.

After a while, Leon sighed and said, “Helping the weak to fight the strong will cost a lot. Really, very big. I admit that you are right, even if we don’t help the dwarves. , As the human gods gradually form hegemony, sooner or later they will pose a threat to the Republic. But…Anyway, at least there are orcs ahead! We don’t have to pay the price in such a hurry!”

“Now is a good time.” East said, “pay the price now, the price will be relatively small.”

“You have been talking for a long time, I don’t understand it very well.” The first beauty of the East Coast, who was privately called the “Vase” by many people, asked Karsally Riley, the lord of Gals City, in distress. In general, you are going to help the dwarves fight against the country of a thousand springs, right? Then I want to ask, if we lose something, I won’t say anything. If we win, what can we win? ?Be specific.”

There is a lot of discussion on this issue.

At this moment, Gerrard stood up.

“What can you get if you ask? In my opinion, the most important thing is to get kindness and justice!” The first believer of Sui Xiong said solemnly, “Your Majesty is a human being, we all know. If He is really a **** who only has interests in his eyes, so most of us have no chance to live till now, nor have a chance to sit here.”

“Helping the weak and resisting aggression, as the beneficiaries of your majesty’s kind and just actions, what stand do we have to question this?”

He turned his head to look at Sui Xiong, clenched his right hand into a fist, and placed it in front of his chest and his heart.

“Your Majesty! Please order, for your glory, the Knights are fearless!”
