In Metz. After drakrip officially assumed the position of the Grand Lord of Eagle's Nest Mountain, the Special Envoy of the Troll Crusade Alliance, specially named by the Alterac Kingdom and specially sponsored by the Barov family, officially submitted an official document requesting an alliance to the Grand Lord.

The Hammer Dwarves of Eagle's Nest Mountain have been making trouble about choosing a handle, and they don't care what humans are doing. When the dust settled, a bunch of muscular pokes finally remembered three things in their daily lives - drinking, fighting, and beating up trolls. So the Provisional Covenant was signed.

Hinterland is located in the highlands, with an average altitude of more than 1,500 meters, and there is plenty of sunshine, but the temperature is low, and the spring ploughing of the dwarves only begins in late March. Therefore, the covenant stipulates that Eagle's Nest Mountain will provide the coalition forces with 100 guides and blacksmiths and other non-combatants in advance to help the coalition forces consolidate the camp and familiarize themselves with the environment; After the end of spring ploughing in mid-April, the dwarves sent no less than 400 ground troops to participate in the coalition army's military attack on the trolls, and supplies were supplied by the coalition army; The coalition will issue an order for weapons and military quarters of no less than 1,000 gold coins to the Hammerhammer tribe in Eagle's Nest Mountain, and promise to give more than 2,000 pounds of grain to the Hammer Dwarves as a gift from the Alliance. At the same time, the Great Lord of Eagle's Nest Mountain, Metz. Delacrip privately promised that the Eagle's Nest Mountain Storm Troopers (Griffin Knights) could provide paid air support to the coalition forces if needed.

During the talks, the two sides reached a consensus on future cooperation in a cordial and friendly atmosphere.

"These dwarf pokes seem to be loyal on the face, but treacherous on the inside!" Carlos felt that he could no longer blindly trust the information he had received in his previous life.

Where did Song Jiang go?

Where is the iron barbarian who said that he was righteous?

Where did the muscular head stupid dwarf go?

Where did you go when you were angry when you said it was good?

I didn't think that if I hadn't had in-depth contact before, this gang of dwarven lords didn't have fuel-efficient lamps. Delacrop is an old fritter old bastard, a proper feudal bureaucratic face, a character who doesn't see a rabbit and doesn't scatter eagles, and can't afford to be profitable.

"It is said that the strong sunlight and the perennial sun and wind have created the dark skin of the Hammer Dwarves, and I think it is from the heart. How dark the heart is, how dark the face is. On the way back to the coalition camp, the dwarves sang and sang all the way to the outing, and the regimental guards opened the way in front. Carlos couldn't help but slander the Hammer Dwarves of Eagle's Nest Mountain behind his back.

"Cooperation should be mutually beneficial, how can there be a reason to take advantage of the advantages and not suffer losses. Being able to get steel and supplies from the dwarves will make our logistical pressure much less, and the supply team will be able to save up our transportation capacity to transport more food and grass to the front line, and we will not lose money. "Biglas sees it very lightly, and understands the dwarf's choice, and Riptide Castle itself sends troops to join the coalition army, and it also has the intention of fighting the deadwood trolls in the Arathi Highlands.

"Well, 2,000 pounds of grain in exchange for 100 leading party and tinkers is not a loss, and the next 400 rice buckets will also belong to us, this transaction is really profitable. Can we really arrange for those dwarven masters to take the lead in the charge? Metz. The old thing from Drachrip sent four hundred griffon knights, four hundred short-legged hoplites, we don't lack this. Carlos still felt that the Hammer Dwarves' wishful thinking was too loud.

"Little friend, don't think that our coalition really has an overwhelming numerical advantage over trolls. Don't think this war will end without twists and turns. As a good commander, you will never dislike having too many chips in your hand, four hundred elite dwarven warriors are already a very formidable force, and they are what you talked about, aren't they? When Biglas instructed Carlos, he seemed to imply something meaningfully, and he didn't seem to say anything.

"There are four hundred griffon cavalry, we can push all the way through." Carlos pretended not to understand.

"We've been in Erepeake and Eagle's Nest Mountain for so many days, and we also have a general idea of the number of dwarves in Eagle's Nest Mountain." Biglas didn't care if Carlos really didn't understand or pretended not to understand, anyway, it was just a mention and didn't say much.

"Between five thousand and seven thousand." Carlos, as Alex's carefully cultivated successor, naturally knows how to estimate the number of people through various intelligence.

"The population base is so large, it's still uncertain whether there are four hundred griffon cavalry in Hinterland, and they all support you, who will guard Eagle's Nest Mountain?" Biglas handed Carlos a rolled cigarette and continued, "And we've seen how much griffons eat, and we can't afford it." ”

"That's just as well." Carlos hesitated, but lit it anyway. (Cigarettes are sealed with saliva, wrapped, rolled into rolls, shaken, and licked.) It's not the same flavor as the cigarette with the filter, it's the same style that you smoke. ）

"So what are you complaining about, Carlos I know. Barros is no such short-sighted person. After a period of contact, Biglas completely forgot that Carlos was still a minor who had just turned fifteen, and that he was a friend of the same age.

"It's mostly a sense of disillusionment." Carlos thought for a moment and replied.

"Huh?" Biglas didn't quite understand.

"That's not how the dwarves in storybooks are......" Carlos explains.

"Hahahaha." Biglas couldn't hold back, and flipped back and forth in front of the horse laughing.

"Little friend, do you know that in Riptide Castle, I am also the person in the story. By chance, I heard a few children discussing a story, and that day, when I had no errands, was bored and eavesdropped on their conversation. When I finally called out my name, I realized that the god-like figure they were talking about was me, Biglas. Berthorn. Biglas laughed enough, and said to Carlos seriously, "Little friend, you are destined to be a character in the story in the future." ”

"Well, I know, Uncle Biglas, it's just that there is a feeling that fairy tales are all lies." Carlos explained.

"Uh, you're so young and old, I almost forgot that you're still a minor, so let's put out the cigarette." Biglas found something wrong.

"I can't remember when I gave it to me." Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling a few smoke rings, Carlos glanced at the bad uncle.

Returning safely to the coalition camp, the sturdy log fence and watchtower had been completed, and about five square kilometers of primeval forest had been flattened by soldiers and craftsmen.

General Audren and the noble knights were informed of the results of the mission. Bertone left to see his son first. As for arranging the dwarves' accommodation, Carlos naturally didn't have to do it.

"Uncle Fang Brick, I didn't have anything to ask along the way, Seedorf. What is the gift of quenching iron felt to repay you for saving your life? In the tent, Carlos asked the bricks.

"Some rare gems and magically friendly metals." Square brick replied.

"And the 100 gold coins you borrowed are ......," Carlos smiled maliciously.

"Seedorf. Quenched iron felt is the best forging master in Eagle's Nest Mountain, and the big man has promised to reforge your Mithril one-handed sword into a two-handed heavy sword, and the materials on it alone are more than 100 gold coins, are you embarrassed to ask me for money? Fang Brick looked like he wanted money and didn't need to talk about it.

"......" Carlos suddenly remembered something, and his whole face collapsed instantly.

"What's wrong?" Fang Brick asked curiously.

"I'm stupid, really." Carlos muttered as he looked down.

"So what the hell is going on?" The bricks are even more curious.

"My sword is a magic weapon! Mother-sama's illusion enchantment light material is more than 300 gold coins! Carlos, who was dazed, finally figured out what was wrong.

Ps1: The protagonist's first purple weapon is about to be acquired.

Ps2: Whether it's a berserk or a defensive war, there's a heart for a weapon.

Ps3: The taste of cigarettes is indeed not as good as the filter, but the process of rolling is really very stylish. As for cigars, it tastes better if you don't light them than if you light them.

Ps4: It is said that smoking is harmful to health, and the scared author Jun hurriedly ordered the root pressure to suppress the shock.
