Chapter 358: Black Iron Pit
The departure of the trolls was a devite blow to the Valrokan family - partly because the trolls made them "allies", and partly because of ...... The trolls left too abruptly.
It is clear that the two completely different concepts of leaving again and saying goodbye without saying goodbye - the former is a disagreement, and the latter is prone to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings and misunderstandings.
Unfortunately, the trolls didn't care about the attitude of the Valrokans, and they didn't care if the humans misunderstood it - it was more important for Trandel to be the troll king and avoid the terrible Lisandro.
As for the life and death of the Valrokan family...... me?!
The sentinels who were monitoring the trolls immediately noticed the trolls' movements, and then decisively chose to sneak back to Valrokan's castle and report the news to Valrokan's current patriarch, Orm Avarosa Valrokan, the lord of Fort Dig.
Being woken up in the middle of the night was really not very pleasant - but what made Ohm even more uncomfortable was the news he received.
The troll is gone.
That meant that Fort Digwo's defenses had become much weaker.
What's more, his plans have been greatly affected.
Ohm Alvarossa Valrokan – Avarosa in this case represents Ohm's grandmother.
It was a lady from the Avarosa clan, and if it was a matter of seniority, maybe Ash would call her Grandma.
Of course, Ash would not admit this identity, and as Avarosa's mother-in-arms, Ash knew very well what it meant for Avarosa's woman to leave the tribe - it was betrayal.
Losing the battle for the War Mother, the woman left the Avarosa tribe, which not only brought the Ice Bloodline to the Freljord Icefield, but also gave Fort Dig a chance to be the best.
If something really goes wrong with the Avarosa tribe, Fort Dig can take over everything they have "in name".
Although the woman was poisoned by another woman from the lord of Fort Dig at the time - but that didn't matter, did it?
At this point in the story, the purpose of Ohm and Lisandro's collaboration is about to be revealed.
Lisandro unites Freljord, and Ohm receives Alvarossa's legacy.
Of course, both sides are cooperating on the surface, but the real purpose is hidden.
Lisandro wants to free the Frost Watchers from the Seal, and Ohm intends to wait for an opportunity to become independent.
But anyway, at least for now, the cooperation exists - and then the trolls slip away.
Ohm, who got the news, was in a hurry, but it was useless to be anxious, the whole cooperation was led by Lisandro, and Ohm wanted to find Lisandro, and the difficulty was not ordinary.
Soon, the largest meeting room of the Valrokan family was sorted out, the large candles on the walls were lit, and the family's direct lineage living in the fortress was brought together to discuss what to do.
Like Ohm, others were in disbelief the first time they got the news.
But as a great nobleman who has been inherited for countless years, the members of the Valrokan family still have at least superficial effort and patience - although everyone is in a hurry, they are not at a loss.
And there was only one topic on the agenda of the meeting - who would go on a trip to Freljord, try to contact Lisandro.
The older ones all complained that they were not feeling well, and the younger ones came up with all sorts of excuses (for example, Hillock said that he was the first heir and could not move, and Ohm's face darkened a little).
Then, just as everyone was blaming each other, a woman took possession.
"I'll go—I'm a woman, and it's easier to walk in Freljord."
A guy who took the initiative to find death appeared, and everyone present unanimously agreed-everyone knew that this girl was making capital for herself, but so what?
Fort Dig has never had a female ruler!
For a moment, Fort Dig was turbulent - but at least it remained calm on the surface, and no one would act rashly in the absence of definite news.
The nobles and lords are still like this, let alone the commoners who work all day long, and the slaves who may lose their lives at any time?
So it was clear that something big had happened, but the whole Fortfort didn't feel nervous at all, and everyone was going to do whatever they wanted, as if nothing had happened.
This unusual calm was beyond Rhode's expectations, he really didn't expect it. All the trolls are gone, and the Diggers can still drink tea and drink all day as if they were nothing......
The chaos that Rhodes had hoped for did not materialize.
It's not that Fort Dig is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, it's really here...... The whole organizational structure is too bloated, and the ship is difficult to turn around!
Seeing that Plan 1 was unsuccessful, Rhodes was not too discouraged and directly activated the backup plan.
Since it's hard to fish in troubled waters, I'll just have a big riot!
……………………
Transformed into a raven again, Rhodes alone began to explore the pits digging Fort Vau.
And then...... Rhodes nearly got lost in the complex pit.
While Rhodes had been to places like the Death Mines in Azeroth, the Death Mines were nothing compared to the Blackstone Mines at Fort Voux...... Simply small place!
The structure of the Fort Dig Pits is different from other mines in the usual sense of the word - all the pits start is around the city, and after digging down for a while, the pits all turn a small bend in the direction of the Iron Spike Mountains.
And as Rod went deeper, he found that there were so many pits, and there was not even one place that was connected.
After flying in the dark pit for three days, Rhodes finally had a relatively intuitive understanding of the black iron ore here.
The black iron ore here can no longer be described as more than just a bonanza.
It should be, to be exact...... The interior of the Iron Thorn Mountains is full of black iron ore - here, the price of 10 gold double-headed eagles and one cubic meter of black iron ore literally fills the entire mountain.
However, in the outer layer of the black iron ore, a thick layer of basalt wells is tightly wrapped, and the general excavation cannot penetrate this basalt at all, and only in the vicinity of the fort is a natural karst cave area, where there are no basalt layers, so it has become the only way to mine the black iron ore.
This is also the reason why Fort Dig has been able to stand tall in the north for thousands of years - the black iron ore is the only one of its kind in the whole of Valoran!
