"This solves a big problem!" Snorri praised. The rock body of the god after descending to earth can ignore most conventional blows, but this is a world of high demons, with all kinds of giant beasts and strong men. , powerful long-range firearms or spells, etc. There's nothing good to be gained by fighting them shirtless.
"What else do you need? A weapon? Logically I can give you my own hammer, but you still need its help to forge that armor."
"This..." Snorri was stunned when he heard this. The hammer Master Kragg was talking about was his famous work "The Hammer of the Harsh". In dwarf society, this kind of artifact named after one's own name or title usually also represents a mantle. .
"That's how it should be! Forget it, I'll give this to you. You can't come here and take the clamp away without giving anything." Master Kragg pointed at the ball on the table.
"This gadget is called the Earthly Barrier. It was lost during the Long Beard War and was later found by me. It was originally used to match the tatters produced by Zhufuba's gang. It is engraved with master-level concealment runes and is used in conjunction with the above elimination. Sound rune and speed rune. After activation, it can create an area to hide in, which is also very effective for keeping key conversations and work secret."
"Can it really be used to prevent the prying eyes of the Chaos Gods?" Snorri looked at this artifact made by the dwarves and didn't quite believe in its usefulness.
"There is a big difference between not being able to see the answer at a glance and not being able to do it! The information the ancestors received from Slan showed that the world under the starry sky is as numerous as the sands of the Ganges. How can the great powers of chaos have so much time to care about a little beard like you! "
Master Kragg took a puff from his pipe. He knew Snorri's concerns and did not exaggerate his role in such a life-or-death matter.
"Speaking of which, I will claim that you have the favor of Tourni when I go back, and work with your father to suppress the rumors about the Chosen of the Ancient Saints. Although those powerful powers take care of everything, if someone calls them and their enemies every day With his name, it’s entirely possible for him to get so many looks.”
Snorri expressed strong support for this, and the ancient saint Taibok in Spider Web Mountain had reminded him. However, there were Amazons, a group of fanatical believers of the Ancient Saints, in the expeditionary force. He did not stop the car very well here. If there were conditions in the old world, they would have to be strictly controlled.
"Then I'll leave now and turn back?" Master Kragg was playing with the rune clamps impatiently.
"Master, you can't leave this mess to me!" Snorri quickly stopped him, detaining the High Elf spies here, so there will definitely be some action on the Dawn Fortress side. He is not afraid of Prince Afazel, but he would not dare to confront the Tai brothers, the Shadow King, or the prison boss if they come.
"Faced with the challenges from the pointy-eared people, our ancestors have never been afraid!" Master Kragg gave a few words of education, but finally agreed to stay and take a look. Leaving the master to compare and study the rune guards, Snorri called for President Bullock to come in.
"Brother, isn't the credit this time enough for Bloxson to wash away his past mistakes?" Snorri stopped talking about business and started to talk about family affairs.
"It's not a big problem. The old diehards were already meeting to discuss it before I left. It won't be long before he can go back to see his mother."
"It's great to have family members reunited, but I can't do without him in all aspects! In the future, the southern world's edge mountains will develop, and there will be a huge talent gap!" Snorri poured a glass of wine for President Bullock. He usually It’s tradition not to find a drink yourself, but to drink a little while talking about business.
Gu Jie: "Haha! There are many middle-aged talents in our guild, and they all admire your vision. If you, Lord Snorri, are interested, I will be happy to help you."
Snorri knew that President Bullock was also a smart man, and he was not far behind in being able to "know the elegant meaning of a stringed song". He probably guessed what he was thinking. If he didn't respond directly, he was just trying to see how much he could offer.
"I heard from the elders that the lord and his rune master should be each other's humerus. Now that I am doing both, I inevitably lack people to discuss with me. If you ask me, our colleagues in the Engineer Guild are also a good choice, but sometimes , Hehe." Snorri smiled and hesitated.
"Well, I guess it's not just for this matter that you traveled thousands of miles to invite me here, right?" President Bullock pondered for a moment, and he decided to listen to the price first.
"Isn't this trip very difficult? I want to build a railway from here to Hongyun Mountain and then to Kuata. It may be connected to Tiefeng Castle in the future."
"Hiss!" Brock gasped after hearing this. He was shocked by Snorri's generosity. "Of course we have this kind of technology. In the old world, there were still cities that built railways. But they were all short-distance lines built to connect mines and facilitate the transportation of mined ore."
"I know that the difficulty and workload of repairing it on the ground will be much smaller, right?" That kind of mining railway existed in Eternal Peak, and it was developed and reinforced on the basis of the original mine tunnel.
"Having said that, the cost of repairing such a long distance is astronomical! Sleepers and rails require a lot of raw materials, and leveling the roadbed and track bed also requires countless labor!"
President Bullock warned excitedly. "Think twice, Snorri, I dare say that all the profits you make from such an expedition are not enough! Transport the raw materials from Haimen Pass..."
"Of course I will produce sleepers and rails in the Southland! There is timber around, and there are iron ores in the fortresses along the way. The development of the Southland requires a large number of people, and the railway project can provide job opportunities and make the economic system here run. "
"My ancestors and gods, my tribe can only see your generosity on the surface, so calling you a generous person is an understatement. With such foresight and structure, you are the only one who can revitalize the Mountain Kingdom!"
After listening to Snorri’s introduction on the work-for-relief theory, President Bullock was amazed. Among the dwarves who generally value wealth to the extent that they spend every penny, this kind of investment in infrastructure is unprecedented.
"I swear in the name of Mogrim, I will do my best to cooperate with you in every aspect!" President Bullock's prosthetic limb hit the ground and shook the stone table, and he was impressed by Snorri. In his initial understanding, Snorri's control of power should be beneficial to the Engineers Guild, but now it is beneficial to the entire Mountain Kingdom.
"Your Majesty has become more and more confused as he grows older. I mean King Serentin. When I get back, I will try my best to mediate and I should be able to help you get this done." Bullock promised.
"Your Majesty Snorri! Pointy Ear is here to ask for someone!" At this moment, Groin's voice came from outside the door.
