Tritus-Dreadtail trembled as he thanked the Horned Rat for his good fortune. It was not just its tail that was used to shaking, but its entire body. It didn't even know that the claw blade tied to its right arm had slipped.
By ratmen standards, Tritus is considered a veteran on the battlefield. He relied on his cunning and luck to rise through the ranks in the clan, and now he has reached the position of deputy vanguard. This is unimaginable for a clan rat instead of a storm rat. of.
Although its superiors often died in front of it, the scene just now was still too horrifying. Creek, the right claw of the boss of Doomclaw, the fastest swordsman in Camelback Mountain, was cut off in the middle by the dwarf on the opposite side before he could even raise his hand to wield the war blade.
"Could it be that next time you want me to be a pioneer?"
No matter how brave and elite the troops in the Southland were, they could not defeat the pro-reunion army of the Thirteen Council members with a single charge. Seeing Kraqi gather his strength, he walked around timidly and came back, pretending to be "dare to fight and dare to fight" and started to rear up.
As Belegar's reinforcements arrived, the two sides fell into a stalemate under the city of Nagashzar. The Grin clan did not expect that they were Snorri's main target for launching this campaign. The dwarves of Lame Peak did not want the land-breaking dwarfs that were riddled with pollution and corruption.
Anyone who has a map and understands it knows who is most likely to lend a helping hand if there is an emergency in Bafeng Mountain. The Gray Seers came from Tyrell's Blight Swamp to collect the corpses, but they couldn't even grab the warm ones.
As an extension of the World's Edge Mountains, Camelback Mountain is only a week's march away from Eight Peaks Mountain. There is no conflict between Moss and Grin - in the clan relationship of the rat people, this is quite good. Krachi and Doomclaw will be addicted to drugs even if they are driven to dementia. There will be reinforcements.
Camelback Mountain is in the northwest of Bafeng Mountain. If you only look at ancient maps, you may come to the conclusion that you can stop them as long as you guard the Death Trail, but that was the old almanac more than three thousand years ago.
The earthquake affected the original direction of the mountains, and the dwarves' simple and straightforward leyline network was also riddled with holes due to the destructive mining by the greenskins and rat people. Brian and his expedition team said that there are now at least seven or eight passages that can allow the Grin clan to Arrive at Bafeng Mountain.
It was impossible for Snorri to bypass the Bafeng Mountain fortress group and deploy heavy troops to block the attack when the main attack direction was from south to north. In that case, it would not be an "attack" but an "encirclement". How could he have so many troops.
The dwarves carried out Snorri's new instructions. They abandoned the city and concentrated on fighting with the Grin clan. After losing more than a dozen claw regiments, Krachi won a "victory" and the dwarves who dared to attack were repulsed.
"No wonder that Quirk-Headhunter fell into trouble. This Gotrek is three points better than the old guy Gnoldor! If it weren't for my grinning clan, there are many soldiers. The young men of the Moss clan are also really This time, I only work there but don’t contribute any effort!”
After cleaning up the battlefield and retreating to Camelback Mountain, Doomclaw felt extremely unhappy. Apart from reputation, it gained nothing from this battle. Instead, the Moss clan acted as a cheerleader while attacking the supply line and grabbing some supplies.
After listening to Belegar and Gotrek's report on the results of the battle and their evaluation of the Grin clan's strength in Red Cloud Mountain, Snorri felt relieved. After this battle, he had figured out the situation of most of the hostile forces around Eight Peaks Mountain.
"Master summoned me? Maybe I can prepare, well, it's still a little bit close. There's no rush, there's no rush!"
After a quick calculation, the weapon of the Rune Colossus should indeed be forged. Snorri told Baelergar to digest the poisonous water river as quickly as possible and prepare for the war before taking a boat to the old world again.
"How spectacular! This is what I imagined the city of mountains should be like!"
At the station exit, most passengers looked up in admiration like him. The main entrance of Karaz-a-Karak was restored to its always-open state in the Golden Age, with two giant statues on the left and right guarding it, leaning on two-handed axes and hammers that were taller than themselves.
Although they are silent and motionless, every businessman who passes under them can't help but lower their breathing, lest someone accidentally activate this terrifying giant.
"Master, have you completely achieved godhood?"
In the guild hall, Snorri found Krag, the god of runes and weapons, between a huge and tightly protected weapon. He was in a strange state, as if he was deliberately suppressing and condensing his aura.
"That's right. I came just in time. Two things from you. Well, they can actually be combined into one. Do you still remember the question you asked me when you came to me holding Stemnir's hammer? Now I have the answer. "
"Why did the ancestor gods leave us?"
"Yes, they probably did not leave voluntarily. This world is rejecting us and rejecting all creatures that have taken the final step. After reaching an agreement, I quickly cast the godhead, and at the same time, the rejection from the earth beneath my feet appeared. ”
"Repulsing the gods, this does make sense. It is possible for a strong man of your level to use real fire to turn the mountains and rivers upside down."
Snorri stroked his beard and frowned. He had seen cultivating immortals in his previous life. After cultivating to a certain level, he would be forced to ascend to the upper world. This seemed to be an act of protection by the world itself.
"As my faith increased, the rejection became stronger and stronger. I had to allocate part of my strength to fight it, and at the same time reduce the use of authority to avoid irritating the world itself more. This resulted in the casting of these giant god soldiers costing more than Estimated time.”
The heavy pressure made Kragg speak softly. Snorri moved his master's lips wisely. He had already guessed the second thing. The master wanted to explain many matters after leaving the mortal world.
With the precedent of the ancestral gods, Krag knew what a sharp decline in faith meant to the gods. Of course, the remaining time to stay in the mortal world must be prepared with some backup plans.
"I don't have many disciples, and you are the only three who are still alive. Nathan is a good boy, but his talent is still a bit lacking, and I'm afraid he doesn't have many days left. Auggie is a little clever, but he doesn't follow the right path, so I beheaded him Fingers, drive him away from the door wall.”
"Um."
Snorri nodded. As his status improved, the dwarf nations began to pay close attention to him. After his second senior brother was exiled, he went all the way north to Dulong City to find a job. He was nicknamed "Nine Fingers" and became the chief rune master of the Norscan dwarves with his excellent technical ability.
"Your brother-in-law brought me news about him. In the past few years, he has integrated the lost skills in the north and found his own way. For the sake of sincerity, I allowed him to return to the school."
Snorri listened quietly, and the only thing that could make the master retract his decision, apart from sincere reform, was the powerful influence of Auggie-Broken Finger in the four northern cities. In this way, the spread of faith on one side is guaranteed, and on the other side, it is a win-win situation for the other side to return to the True God.
