Chapter 366: Sheep Shearing
"Doruru, why is this guy here?"
Looking at a certain figure that appeared in Black Rock City, Brin muttered twice in his heart.
It was an underground dwarf dressed in a gorgeous human aristocratic costume, but although the human costume was beautiful, it really didn't match the gnome, and it didn't look like a clown.
At this moment, this underground dwarf was hurrying towards the Death Temple in Black Rock City, accompanied by several personal guards, with a trace of anxiety and worry on his face, as if he had encountered something urgent.
Underground pygmy Doruru.
He was a classmate of Brynn when he was a student in the dungeon city of Shanatar, the first heir to the most powerful underground pygmy clan in the city-state of Shanatar, and the grandson of the current chief.
He is currently a diplomat at Shanatar and is said to be the next chief candidate.
And just like the relationship between Blade City and Shanatar City, although the two are classmates, they have always been unpleasant.
After Brin became the chief of Bladed City, Doruru is said to have made public statements such as "With Bryn's idiotic abilities, Bladed City will definitely lead to decline......
Of course, in fact, it was because he saw Brin take the lead in becoming the head of the dungeon, and he just got lemon.
And when Brin saw Doruru, the other party also saw him.
The moment he saw Brin, he saw that Doruru immediately put away his expression, and at the same time raised his nostrils to the sky, and mocked in a strange way:
"Yo! Isn't this Brin from City of Blades? ”
"I heard that the war in the city of blades didn't start long ago, and it spent many years of savings, and owed nearly 10,000 sets of sophisticated equipment to the surrounding city-states, and the reinforcements suffered heavy casualties, it seems that ...... The chief of this Blade City, it's still not good. ”
"I don't know what Lord Firebeard thinks, and he actually passed the position of chief to such a guy......"
Hearing the sarcasm in the other party's words, Brin's expression sank.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart and replied:
"It's better than talking about people's crap behind your back."
After speaking, he glanced at the tired and worried guards who followed behind Dororo, and thought of the geographical location of the two city-states, coupled with the military arrangements of the Dark Alliance that he had known for a long time...... I already knew something.
I saw him smile slightly and said:
"Lord Doruru, let's do your own thing as soon as possible, I heard that Shanatar has also become the target of the Dark Alliance's attack, and now that we have repelled the enemy army, maybe the other side will divert the target, in that case...... Your city is in danger. ”
"It's a pity...... In this war, our Blade City has suffered heavy losses, and there is nothing left to support. ”
"Humph!"
Listening to Brin's words, Doruru's face sank.
He took a deep look at Brin and walked towards the Temple of Death with his own soldiers.
Looking at the other party's back, Brin shook his head slightly.
Looking at Doruru's appearance, I am afraid that as Lord Firebeard guessed, the Dark Alliance did not choose to retreat, but changed the direction of its main attack and aimed at another underground city, Shanatar.
And Doruru came, obviously asking for help.
In other words, although the elves and the Silent Alliance have concluded an alliance, in fact, many underground cities of the Silent Alliance are still in a wait-and-see state when facing the elves.
On the one hand, because they are not under much pressure from the current war, and on the other hand, they are very skeptical about the strength of these long ears.
That is, the city of blades is besieged by a large army, and reinforcements are urgently needed, so the elves will be brought in, thus completely demonstrating their terrifying combat effectiveness.
And the successful defense of the City of Blades allowed the other city-states to truly see the power of the elves.
Of course, they didn't know enough about the details of the battle now, and all they knew was that with the help of the elves, it took only three days for the city of blades to retreat from the enemy army......
Also, it seems that the City of Blades has already owed a lot of debts in this war......
Watching Doruru enter the Temple of Death, a sneer tugged at the corner of Brin's mouth.
Hehe.
City of Blades in debt?
I wonder how much Shanatar owes!
It is true that he changed the agreement with the elves on behalf of the City of Blades, but that was only unilaterally on the part of the City of Blades.
The underworld is inherently full of competition and chaos, and although Blade City and Shanatar are both member city-states of the Silent Alliance, they are also full of competition with each other.
In this case, the City of Blades, which had suffered a big loss, naturally did not think about anything for the other city-states.
Even if they are allies.
Speaking of which, it was this group of allies who raised prices and made war money when the city of blades was besieged, and even the equipment owed by the city of blades was purchased from other city-states at a price that increased a lot......
Not to mention the extra reinforcements.
It's no wonder that the Silent Alliance can't do the Dark Alliance, if it's not united, no matter how powerful it is, it can't be brought into play, not to mention that the enemy is not strong......
In fact, in the agreement between the Silent Alliance and the elves, the description of equipment is only "the alliance side needs to provide the necessary equipment for the supporting elves".
Other details are added to the dungeon during the specific implementation process.
In other words, the agreement of Blade City does not apply to other dungeons.
And now, seeing that it was Shanatar's turn to call for help, Brin naturally wouldn't remind anything.
With the addition of elves, eighty percent of the city will be defended, but I don't know how much debt I owe.
Eighty percent will go bankrupt, after all, the city of blades has not been captured, and the Dark Alliance will definitely invest more forces to besiege Shanatar......
Brin thought to himself.
Thinking of Doruru's possible expression after the end of the war in the future, Brin felt a hint of happiness in his heart.
As a mature underground resident, he is also very vindictive.
Well......
When I go back this time, I will prepare well and see if I can make up for the lost wealth with the defensive battle of Shanatar.
That's right, as a qualified commercial dungeon chief, he's already thinking about how to take advantage of the gap in information to shear Shanathar's wool......
……
Doruru had indeed come to ask for help.
After the Dark Alliance's army gave up the siege of Blade City, they quickly shifted the main target to them, and for a while, the pressure on the entire city doubled.
With the precedent of the success of the City of Blades, they naturally pointed their call for help to the elves.
The process of asking for help was very smooth.
After losing the way to use the resurrection ability to farm equipment in the city of blades, players who regretted it received a request for help from the new city-state, and immediately became as excited as if they had discovered a new continent.
As a result, Doruru easily reached an agreement with the players.
Well...... It's like the City of Blades.
