This beautiful dwarven woman walked up to us.

"Dear Queen Olivia, these are the warriors who are preparing to defeat the Ancient Corpse Emperor. Lord Dorum said immediately

"I know, Lord Dorum, you've worked hard for such a long distance, so go down and rest first, and stay here tonight. After a while, in the evening we will hold a feast here to entertain these warriors who have come from afar. ”

I wonder how I became a warrior against the Ancient Corpse Emperor, and why did I have to be hospitable? In the heads of these dwarves, I really don't know what medicine is sold in the gourd.

It doesn't matter if you forget it, if you come, you will be safe. Anyway, now I have the confidence that no one in this dwarven kingdom can hurt the three of us.

I glanced at Uther and Avina, and seeing that they didn't strongly object, I half-said yes.

Together with Lord Dorum, we were taken out of the palace by the dwarven guards of the royal palace, and we were taken outside to an empty stone room, which resembled an inn room, only more luxurious.

I shared a room with Avina, a room for Uther herself, and a room for Lord Dorum, and we were told that we would be told to go to a dinner in the palace later, and that we would rest here first.

After we left, in the main hall of the palace chamber.

"Olivia, do you have any good advice?" the dwarven king Gono Hammer looked at his queen

"Your Majesty, do you think these people really have the strength to crusade against the Ancient Corpse Emperor?" Queen Olivia said with a smile to the dwarven king Gono Brutehammer

"Perhaps, but maybe they're just swaggering. Alas, over the years, we have developed the underground into a new kingdom with clean underground water sources, dense forests, abundant supplies, and, of course, warm air. However, our home is still on the ground, and the statue of the former king still guards us in front of the main hall of Anrila. We love it, but we can't forget that the only thing that can be persecuted is the Ancient Corpse Emperor who huddles here. Speaking of which, Gono Brutehammer was a little emotional

"I know, Your Majesty, this has been your nightmare all along, and how many times you have woken up from your dreams it is because of this. But, alas, you have also seen the horror of the ancient corpse emperor, and the army of death, which is overwhelming, and how many dwarven warriors are blood-stained with snow. Queen Olivia also became melancholy

"Alas, yes, the Ancient Corpse Emperor is too powerful. My father, and my two brothers, died in that battle. Otherwise, it would not be my turn to be the patriarch of the Brute Hammer Clan, the king of this dwarven kingdom. In my heart, I still hope that these few people who came this time can destroy the Ancient Corpse Emperor for us. After all, Dorum doesn't take anyone from us. Suddenly, Gono Hammer's eyes lit up

"Well, Your Majesty. Let's take a good look at the three humans at dinner, after all, humans are not very reliable. Let's treat them warmly first, so that when we ask them in the future, we hope they won't refuse. Queen Olivia said thoughtfully

At this moment, Avina and I are in the dwarven room where we are entertained. In the room, on the round table are some fruit snacks that are special to the dwarves.

Some of these fruit snacks I know, such as dragon fruit, which is the favorite fruit of the dwarves at this time, but some I don't recognize. Actually, I have the impression that dwarves like to drink more. The famous black thorn mead, fire shochu, sour plum fruit wine and tolva fire wine are all specialties of the dwarves, and in any country on the mainland, as long as you can get the dwarven wine, the bar must be very popular.

We don't see many dwarves on the continent, but for various reasons, stubborn dwarves also travel far from home, so although the dwarves are mysterious, they are not isolated from the world.

We can still learn about this ancient race from books and some experiences.

"Laric, why did that Dorum suddenly say that we are here to defeat the Ancient Corpse Emperor, although we do intend to go to the Ancient Corpse Emperor to retrieve Atholl's magic weapon. Avina looked at me

"I guess, he's not going to say it directly, I'm just here to use their supreme king as a living dictionary or a book about the Ancient Corpse Emperor. After all, the identity of the person is there, although in my eyes I don't care at all. Forget it, people came up and said that they wanted money to take us, and we couldn't say anything. However, I feel that Queen Olivia is a little different. Anyway, we can indeed say that they are here to crusade against the Ancient Corpse Emperor, so let's take it one step at a time, and if they offer to give us some more payment or something, wouldn't it be a good thing?" I said to Avina with a smile

And so, I talked to Avina for a long time. At this moment an old dwarven man came and said that he had invited us to the king's dinner on behalf of the king.

A few of us and Lord Dorum went to the banquet hall of the palace to attend the dwarven king's dinner.

As soon as you enter the golden gate, you will be greeted by a variety of delicacies, and a huge long table in the middle of the hall will be filled with countless delicacies.

When they saw us coming, the king and queen smiled at us and told us to sit at will.

Lord Dorum sat near the King and Queen, with Uther next to him, and Avina and I across from him.

In this way, the king and queen were in the middle, and the four of us were done on each side.

"You've come from afar, and I don't have any food to take today, so I hope you don't mind. "The beautiful Queen Olivia said to us, she was gentle and not in the slightest like the traditional and rough dwarves I remembered.

And so the feast began, and I ate unceremoniously.

At this time, the king was about to say something. The door of the banquet hall was pushed open by the dwarven guards, and a dwarven warrior covered in blood rushed in.

"Your Majesty, it's not good, something is wrong!" the dwarven warrior didn't care about rushing towards King Gono Brutehammer

The guards tried to stop him, but the king motioned for him to come over.

"What's the matter, say it slowly. ”

"Warsong Fortress is surrounded by an army of ghouls, and the two lords are desperately resisting, and they have sent me to ask for reinforcements, and this is the letter of the lord. The dwarven warrior finished in one breath.

Gono Brutehammer sent a bloody letter asking him to take the badly wounded dwarven warrior for treatment and then rest.

He opened the intact letter sealed by the Warsong family, and read it, only to see his brow furrowed.
