Chapter 708(1/2)

After recognizing Kstakin* Iron Swords, Renn saw several acquaintances.

Zoltan and Brestine were both in the list, and in the crowd he also discovered Master Grunus who had met once.

This rune blacksmith is the caster of the "Thunder Hammer" in his hand. Since he got the Thunder Hammer at Mrs. Xia Lanwei's trade fair four years ago, he has never seen Grunus again. It turned out that he had returned to Lava Fort.

Grunus is not only a master-level rune craftsman, but also a legendary middle-level Wildhammer warrior. He has a high seat and is obviously in Lava Fort.

When he saw Renne, his eyes were also slightly brighter.

Renn nodded slightly to Grunus, followed Magner through the aisle among the dwarves, stepped step by step onto the throne platform under the feet of the statue of the dwarves patron saint "Mahal".

In the past, there was only one throne on the platform that belonged to King Megner.

Today, there are three large thrones carved from rocks side by side. The one in the middle is larger. Solgreen and Dann are already sitting on the smaller thrones on both sides. There is also a tall stone chair next to Dann, which is Renn's position.

Megner ascended the throne and turned to sit down.

"I've seen Your Majesty."

The dwarves saluted to the three kings on the platform, bowed together, and shouted loudly. Only after Megner responded did the dwarves sit down one after another.

"Sons of the mountains, may Mahal protect you."

Megner spoke loudly, his majestic and loud voice echoing in the palace, making every dwarf hear it very clearly. He raised his hand to signal Renn to stand up and said, "Many of you already know that this is Count Glamorgan from the Orionthor Empire, Lord Renn Augustus."

The dwarves' eyes were focused on Rennes again. Some were surprised, some were curious, some were confused, and some were also dwarves who had heard of Rennes's name opened their eyes wide.

Renn responded with a simple salute, without saying a word.

Megner continued: "There is an important matter to discuss when you come to Lava Fort at my invitation. This matter is related to the future of Lava Fort, the three kingdoms of the High Mountains and Dufeng, and even all the dwarves in the world's mountains."

A little commotion occurred among the dwarves, and a whisper rang out in the palace.

It has been two days since Rennes arrived at Lava Fort, and the three kings have gathered in Lava Fort, but only a few of the upper dwarves know the inside story.

"His Earl will build a new city on Shield Island in the New World." Magner whispered: "This project is jointly undertaken by the stonemason guilds of the three kingdoms, and our cooperation with Him Earl will go further. After the city is established, a dwarf area will be set up in the city to accept the people of the mountains. A dwarf legion will also be stationed in this city forever."

By the time King Megner was halfway through, many dwarves could no longer sit still.

The whispers turned into loud noises.

"Mahar asylum!"

"Oh earth!"

"Are we finally going to embark on the road to restore the glory of our ancestors?" The dwarves screamed excitedly. The solemn palace turned into a vegetable market in a blink of an eye, making a noise. Some dwarves were even so excited that they blushed and hugged the tribesmen around them, with tears flashing in their eyes.

In the eyes of the dwarves, Rennes on the stage suddenly looked like the most precious gem in the world. The dwarves looked at him and their eyes were shining.

If it weren't for the three kings present, a dwarf would have rushed up to talk to Rennes.

"quiet!"

"quiet!"

Megner shouted a few times, and finally calmed the excited dwarf, no one spoke, and the palace was still full of warm atmosphere.

"My two Majesties and I have negotiated the terms of cooperation with His Earl." King Megner did not say the details of the contract. After briefly introducing a few words, he said: "In the next half month, the three kingdoms will recruit five thousand craftsmen and five thousand dwarf warriors."

"The people of the mountains have a chance to revive the glory of our ancestors!"

Megner's extremely inflammatory mobilization made the dwarves below respond enthusiastically, and dozens of legendary dwarves immediately recommended themselves to the king and were willing to join the legion.

Some people also shouted to Rennes to show their strength.

The dwarves' reactions relieved the three kings.

Obviously, the kingdom understands the current difficult situation. The naturally brave dwarf is held in the underground fortress and has nowhere to display his strength. He has long been unable to hold it in. Therefore, the plan to open up a new continent has received one-sided support.

Renn observed the dwarves with the eyes of the soul, and almost all dwarves were happy.

The powerful King of Hills also supported them with one exception, and it was Kestakin* Ironbeard. The King of Hills was very complicated and did not completely object, but he thought more and seemed to be worried about something.

"He should have guessed Solgreen's intentions." Renne thought.

This is not a difficult thing to guess. Kestagin will definitely not obey Solgreen's arrangements and may have been prepared.

Megner nodded to the side, and the two dwarf guards came up on a stone table and placed them in front of the throne.

Brestine held a dragon-skin scroll in both hands and placed it on the table.

The scroll was spread out, and the terms of cooperation were written in Dwarf and Orion. They were densely packed. The red ink was made of dragon blood. It was not afraid of fire and blisters. It could be preserved for thousands of years. Brestine whispered: "Three Majesties, the Earl, the contract is ready."

Megner got up, and the other two kings came down.

The three dwarf kings stood at the table and chanted the name of the dwarf patron saint "Mahal". They swore in the name of the god. The eyes of the statue shone with light, and the huge breath of divine power enveloped the palace, making the dwarfs watching the signing ceremony feel awe-in and joyful.

This means that this collaboration project has been supported by Mahal.

Under the gaze of the gods, the kings solemnly signed their names, then looked at Rennes together, and Megner said seriously:

"Please, please."

Renn stepped forward and read the contents on the Dragon Skin scroll for the last time. After confirming that there was no problem, he signed his full name.

The moment he signed the name, he sensed the look from the distant void and moved away.

The guardian of the dwarf, Mahal, is also a very ancient god, one of the most powerful gods of Alan's. In the myths and legends of the dwarf, Mahal was the spouse of the Earth Mother God and jointly created the dwarf, while the other dwarf gods are the descendants of the two gods.

Because of this relationship, Mother Earth has many dwarf believers, second only to Mahal.

However, many dwarf gods fell in the last era, including Moradin, the god of forging and crafts. Nowadays, most dwarfs only believe in three gods, Mahal, the Earth Goddess and Gremnier, the god of the dwarf warrior.

The signing ceremony was completed, and the dwarves cheered loudly, and the applause was like a wave that never subsided for a long time.

Megner put away the contract scroll and put it in a solid magical alloy box, and sent it to the treasure house of the Lava Fort to be saved.

Solgreen pressed his hands to calm the dwarves quickly.

"Now announce a few important things." The King of the Supreme Mountains was obviously higher than that of Megner, and the dwarves listened carefully, "The Dwarves Legion heading to the New World will be stationed in Gotham City for a long time, that is, the city of His Excellency of the Earl, obey the orders of the Earl and be loyal to him."

The expressions of some dwarves changed and they couldn't help but whispering to each other.

"Enjoy allegiance to a human being?"

"He is not a people of the mountains, how can he be entitled to our allegiance? Only the king can command the dwarves."

A low voice came into Renne's ears.

He immediately realized that some dwarves' enthusiasm had faded a lot, and they were obviously resistant to allegiance to him, and even were very disgusted. However, most dwarves had an attitude of not caring, as long as they could leave the world mountains and join the battle, they proved their strength and courage, and whether the target of loyalty was the dwarf king or human.

Solgreen seemed to have expected this situation. He ignored the hesitation of a few dwarves and continued: "This dwarves legion comes from the three kingdoms, so we named it the 'Three Hammer Legion'."

"The Three Hammers will be led by a King of the Hill."

"This King of Hills is responsible for protecting Gotham and defending the residents of the city. In the future, the dwarves will be the leader of the new world again. Such a crucial position has been discussed with my two Majesties and decided to appoint..."

Solgreen paused when he said this and looked at the hill kings below.

Today, in addition to the three kings, there were four hill kings present. They were originally full of anticipation when they heard Solgreen's words, but when they heard them behind, the hill kings seemed to realize something and their faces changed.

Kestagin's eyes became sharp in an instant, and lightning was leaping in his eyes.

"We have decided to appoint Kestagin Iron as the commander of the Three Hammers." Solgreen announced loudly: "Train Kestagin leads the Three Hammers to the New World and obey the orders of His Excellency the Earl."

Suddenly, all the dwarves' eyes fell on Kestagin, and the palace, which had some noises, suddenly became silent.

Even the dwarf, no matter how dull the dwarf was, he understood Solgreen's intentions.

Two years ago, Kestakin was promoted to King of the Hill, changed his surname to Tiexue, and made a statement that he wanted to revive the glory of the Tiexue clan, which caused a sensation in the five dwarf kingdoms.

The dwarves worship their ancestors and heroes. Even though the Iron Beard clan has been silent for thousands of years and is about to decline, the fame and deeds of this clan are still passed down among the dwarves from generation to generation.

Kestakin mastered the book of hatred of the Iron Beard clan, confirming that the blood of the Iron Beard flowed in his body.

He is like a banner, attracting many dwarves who also have blood ties to the Iron Forest Clan. Although there are only more than 1,000 people at present, it has formed a considerable momentum. In the past two years, the reappearance of the Iron Forest Clan is the most eye-catching thing in the dwarf kingdom.

Some clever dwarves had expected that His Majesty Solgreen would never let him go.

Now, he finally showed his fangs to Kestagin.

Amid the people's gaze, Kestagin slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I refuse to be the commander of the Three Hammers Legion. Please ask your Majesty to ask you for another Gao Ming."

Solgreen looked at him coldly, "You are going to disobey the king's orders?"

Kestagin looked directly at Solgreen, without saying anything, but he clearly expressed his intention, just to disobey.

"snort."

Solgreen showed displeasure.

He said lightly: "The Three Hammers Legion is responsible for revitalizing the glory of his ancestors and will equip the best weapons and armor of the dwarves. Therefore, a rune lord and a group of rune blacksmiths need to accompany him to maintain and repair the legion's equipment. You are the only rune lord among the King of the Hills. For the sake of the overall situation of the dwarves, you must assume the position of commander."

Some dwarves nodded slightly when they heard this, thinking that this made sense.

There is indeed no dwarf who is more suitable for serving as the leader than Kestarkin. Some dwarfs even thought that His Majesty Solgreen might not be out of selfishness.

However, Kestakin was still unmoved and just refused to respond.

"What?" Thorgreen's tone rose a little bit, and a huge force of lightning burst out, suffocating the dwarves sitting in the front row, like a storm, and shouting loudly: "Kestakin, in order to restore the glory of the ancestors, how many dwarves are willing to give their lives. This is the opportunity that the tribesmen dream of getting, but you want to refuse?"

Kestakin finally responded: "I still have important things to do, and I don't want to leave the mountain."

"What is more important than the future of the entire Dwarf clan?" Solgreen asked sternly.
