"Hiss!"
Ku-Jia's throat trembled and he let out a deep roar. The lizardman soldiers moved towards it in neat steps, obviously preparing for evacuation.
"Whoosh!"
"Ah, forget it, just leave without sending me away!"
Snorri watched the lizard man disappear into the sudden appearance of the sky-reaching pillar of light. He stretched out his hand and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he sighed and gave up the idea.
Kuga can be said to be the strongest person in the world in pure melee combat. As long as he can get close to him, he and his Tyrannosaurus are capable of tearing apart any opponent - no matter what level of demon it is, the men of the gods can only moan and roll back to Asia. Space a choice.
The dwarf really wanted to compete with it to see the gap between itself and the top combat power. But how does this challenge proceed? He didn't want his hard-earned legendary armor to be compromised by the two treasures that should not have fallen into the mortal world.
But if Marshal Ku is asked not to use the hands of the gods and the divine spear, he will have to wait and see whether he will agree, and if he agrees, will he ride Kuimok? If he rode it, wouldn't he be in a duel with Quimock?
And if the Tyrannosaurus doesn't ride and the guy doesn't use it, Kujia won't be the handsome Ku who goes in and out of the jungle of ten thousand demons. Such challenges become tasteless and tasteless.
"Your Majesty, I am incompetent..."
"Those cold-blooded animals appeared out of thin air, and the mustaches and I were captured before we even lined up!"
"What a shame, what a shame..."
As soon as the Lizardmen left, the Southland officials headed by Bahrain and the original guards of the port who came to welcome them were rescued from the surrounding buildings. Their faces were full of shame, and some of them had already started fighting for weapons and shaving their heads.
"I can't blame you. Even if I change places, I can't do much."
Snorri saw clearly that Kuja, a well-known strongman in the subspace, led a group of blessed lizardman elites to suddenly attack by means of ultra-long-distance teleportation, which was simply not something that mortals could stop.
"I arranged for people to unload the cargo. The tribesmen who traveled with me have worked hard for a year. They need a good rest and don't be distracted by such uncontrollable things."
"Are you planning to return to Plateau Castle immediately, or are you going to rest here for a while?"
Long years of service gave Balin the ability to judge Snorri's emotions from subtle facial expressions and movements. He felt that Snorri was not relaxed after returning from a long trip but was instead worried.
"Hey, I'll pay a visit to Lord Eutrax and then go back."
Snorri sighed, adding another item to his long list of plans. The problem he faces now is the same as Master Ma. There are too many choices available and it is difficult to prioritize.
"We haven't seen you for a year, how are you?"
In the divination pool under the pyramid, Snorri met the owner of the Bone Temple as he wished. It looks a little bad, and I don't know if it's because of the old injuries left by Yinyin that haven't healed yet or because of new injuries in recent days.
"It's indeed good. Thanks to you, we in the Southland have finally connected with the ancient generations on the other side of the World Pool. With their guidance, the realization of the big plan is just around the corner."
"What about our cooperation agreement?"
"Everything is as usual. I even have a new project for you. Lord Mazda-Moody taught me the technology of building the Craxigor hatching tank, and generously gave me a few dragon eggs. I need your people to help me. I build the beast's lair."
"No problem, as you wish."
Snorri nodded. It seemed that Master Ma was very good to his little Slan brother. There is no such thing as a situation where one must first settle down one's own affairs before fighting outsiders, and then come up and sort out one's own people.
"Hiss! Hiss!"
The dwarf king cupped his hands and was about to leave, when the skink priest serving beside Eutrax suddenly chirped softly. Snorri couldn't help but frown slightly. In theory, these little guys who were hatched as waiters should not have the qualifications to interrupt when Slann was visiting guests.
"By the way, I plan to send troops north in the future to completely eradicate the blasphemous creatures that are not part of the big plan. If you are willing, we can cooperate in depth militarily." Ortrax still had a calm tone.
Although the appearances and accessories of these Skinks are very different, those with sharp eyes can still tell that the Skink Priest serving beside the Divination Pool has been replaced by a Lizard, and it has some things on it that are not Southland-style. .
"Well, I'll consider it."
"It seems that even the gifts from the big brother to the little brother come with a price, but this is not bad news at all."
While nodding Snorri, he sighed in his heart. Master Ma used a conspiracy to overpower others, but for Snorri who knew the original outcome, the power it showed gave him more pressure.
"Pass my order. Members of the Presbyterian Church in each city should come to Plateau Castle to report on their work!" After leaving his words, Snorri got into the carriage. He needed some time to determine the focus of his next phase of activities.
"The production of the Rune Guards is going smoothly. The three completed units are undergoing final debugging and will be put into use immediately."
In the conference room, Admiral Andermg of the West Factory was making a report. In the year since he left, no major changes had happened in the Southland. Rapid development and abundant opportunities are the best stabilizers for society.
"Xichang destroyed two Slaanesh strongholds, killed seventeen believers, and burned all the filth collected."
Among the four gods, the belief in Slaanesh is the easiest to spread. Chaos is multidimensional. To a certain extent, her erosion can also play a role in accelerating population growth.
"Everyone has worked hard this year. I have brought back a lot of fine wines from China. Bahrain, you can give us a share after the meeting. But there is a question. Why is our population growth so different from that of humans?"
After confirming the work of his subordinates, Snorri asked, pointing to several sets of eye-catching data in the report document. In the past year, the number of human newborns in the four southern cities was twenty times that of dwarves, but the population base was only about five to one.
"Isn't this enough, my majesty? It is the grace of the Mother Goddess that allowed Hongyun Mountain to have more than twenty little ones. When I was young, there were not so many in the Eternal Peak in a year!"
"Human babies are so fertile! Their women can give birth to a baby in just ten months."
"I remember that encouraging childbirth is a policy you have repeatedly emphasized? Only when the population increases can development be easier."
"The meeting is over!"
This is an internal meeting of the dwarves. Several foreign elders will report on their work at the afternoon meeting. Snorri looked around the conference room. Even if he deliberately adjusted it, the majority of them were still white-bearded elders.
In the eyes of the elders, the alliance with humans, especially the empire, is extremely strong. But Snorri knew one thing. The background of this covenant was that the dwarf states were unable to maintain control of the plains under the mountains in the Golden Age, so they had to gradually transfer their influence to humans in a peaceful way.
