After the Battle of the Shattered Mines a few months ago, the Thorns Squad realized that they might have let Miela go while clearing the battlefield, but they still achieved the planned goal of the underground treasure hunt, and then accepted the surrender of the few Drow remnants, and returned the same way with many of the loot captured after the battle, as well as the three treasures obtained by Urs and Koto in the Vaults of the Forgotten One's Gate.

They left the crushed pit under the guidance of the Drow cavalry, and deliberately ambushed the Drow infantry that Miela had left at the mouth of the cave in the barren hills.

The Drow infantry left behind by Miela were also elite, but unfortunately after the departure of Miss Spider Handmaiden of the Zelgon family, there was a lack of experienced senior commanders, so they were rushed out of the darkness by the heroic heavy knights of the Lion of Thorns Legion to launch a charge, and the morale was directly shattered after a round of charge, forcing them to quickly move Miella's defeat in the broken pit to the barren rocks and hills to repeat it, and after the death, wounded and rout, most of the people left behind a small number of remnants of the surrounded remnants had no choice but to surrender, and the new surrendered troops were "surprised" by the way I found that many familiar cavalry colleagues were actually in the young formation.

Urs accepted the surrender of the Drow and led them out of the barren rocks of the Dark Realm and back to the cliffs of the Hive Labyrinth, the city of Palomet above the cliffs.

These elite soldiers who have undergone vocational training are of great use to young people.

After hearing the news of the triumph of the Thorn Squad, the underground gnomes of Palomit City welcomed the return of the surface heroes who had liberated the city. Moretti was improvised by the pygmy townsfolk because of his status as the son of the previous mayor, and a few days later, with the approval of the blind prophet Zeken, he adopted Urs's suggestion to help the city of Palomit build a new army for the city.

Living in the dangerous underworld, the lessons of blood have made the underground gnomes of Palomet City deeply aware of the importance of combat effectiveness, and now even if Urs does not make this suggestion, they spontaneously plan to form a new military force to defend the city, so it coincides with the young people's thoughts, but they don't know that the young people's reasons for doing this are not only good intentions, but also have another idea in their minds.

Urs couldn't explain that idea to anyone, but the memories of his previous life had made him predict that a terrifying catastrophe called the "Eternal Dark Havoc" would come sooner or later on the main material plane.

Soon after the expansion was launched, some test server players ran to the forums to complain about "official feeding", "the mission is too depressing", "the game experience is extremely poor", and "every monster on this street has killed me...... and so on, some people who are not interested in the test suit can find important information from these complaints that "the disaster seems to have spread from the surface to the underground", so as to prepare for a rainy day.

Thinking about the future arrangement, Urs thought that he had already liberated such an underground dwarf city by the way, so he would simply take care of this underground dwarf city that had been freed by his own hands, and supervise the training of the dwarf recruits who surrendered, so that he could use this place as a disaster refuge beneath the surface in the future.

No one can say for sure what the future holds, and it's always good to take a few more precautions in advance.

In addition, the days of assisting the underground gnomes in building a new army in the city are not entirely concerned with this one thing for the people of the Thorn Squad.

Although the Ring of the Warbler left by the Emperor Calvinland and the pioneers of the Origin Blood Secret Party can summon the powerful Lion of the Thorns, this magic ring that can summon the Heroic Spirit Knights seems to take time to "wake up", as if they have just "woken up" and have not yet taken off their laziness, so at that time, when they were crushing the mines, they could only summon about 200 ironclad heavy cavalry for Urs.

The two hundred Immortal Knights, armed from their heads to their horses' hooves, were tough enough to help Urs defeat Miera's elite privates, but they were obviously not enough in the young man's plan to fight against the undead army in the northern part of the Empire.

You must know that the undead are not the same as the dark elves, especially the kingdom of Byron Tas, which has undergone two rounds of political and military reforms in the hands of the zombie king Erdon in this era.

Based on the memories of the previous life, the young man still remembered how the Black Duke Cassius played the innovative Skull Sea tactics to the brink on the snowfield, and how he commanded the cunning Necro Legion to use low-level skeletons as cannon fodder to cast spells to weaken the Imperial defenders, and cooperated with the vampire Lich Rosette's bone dragon and a war machine called the meat grinder to continue the siege, and finally blasted several deadly holes in the walls of the Winter Fortress and put the ghoul troops of Barnadel the Bone Chewer to carry out a bloody slaughter.

The number of elite cavalry is too small to consider how to play a role in the defense of the city, even if the battlefield is assumed to be a plain, it is not a threat to the senior generals of Byron Tas, who are good at using the tactics of the sea of soldiers to control the entire battlefield - after all, the small skeleton is notoriously worthless, if the other party deliberately sacrifices a flank to take the opportunity to cut off your rear road, as a living man's camp, you will have to run out of supplies.

On the other hand, the undead - these things can not eat or drink, the soul fire burning in the eye sockets has no concept of morale, will not be emotional because of advantages, and will not feel depressed because of disadvantages.

The wall charge of the hoplites in the form of a wall is a kind of soul-piercing judgment for any living person, especially when the charge takes place on the flanks and rear of the team, and often in the blink of an eye, the victory or defeat can be decided by the collapse of the enemy's morale, but it cannot be broken in a short time, only the discipline and no morale of the dead man.

All in all, and regardless of how the battle develops, Urs intends to use this time of waiting time to "wake up" the Ring as quickly as possible, so that he can summon a larger number of Thorn Lion Knights, and at the same time, Koto's Hearthfire Crown will also "wake up" as quickly as possible.

Although the Crown of the Fire that Koto obtained could also summon a dwarven legion called the Furnace Guard, His Royal Highness the Dwarven Prince did not know what was going on, and according to himself, it seemed that he had not yet been recognized by this treasure with the characteristics of the Holy Avenger.

His Royal Highness the Prince of the Hearthfire Clan thinks that this must be because he has not done something well, so he hopes to spend more time alone with the ancestral crown, and it is good to calm down and think more, if it is okay, it is good to talk to himself for a while, in short, I can't believe that some of the memories that the Sage of the Gray Court Yu Stina helped him recover are fake.

Urs didn't have much to do about the situation of the Hearthfire Crown, so he agreed to Koto's idea with the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, but fortunately, the third treasure that the two of them brought out from the Gate of the Forsaken at that time, the +5 enchanted flail with the title of "Holy Avenger", and the "Prayer of the Redeemer", one of the three sacred relics of the Sogo Church, approved Thea, and by the time everyone returned to Palomet City, they had already wished to be used normally by the wolf-eared girl.

The Redeemer's Prayer is a Holy Avenger with special conditions of use, and is rumored to have been created by a priest craftsman who believed in the goddess of life, Liv, and was given to another paladin who believed in the god of justice, Gazteis, which probably explains why it was used by Thea, who was a priest and had the blood of a beast angel.

In this way, the silence of the Hearthfire Crown to Koto and the Holy Avenger's approval of Thea, the good and the bad news gradually came to the present date with the passage of time.

September in the year of candles, the night of the 11th day of the harvest month.

The location was moved from the Doriel's Tavern on the side of the city street to a blacksmith in the city.

"Honorable High Priest, I've brought the hero here." Moretti walked ahead and pushed open the half-hidden door, leading Urs into the room with the creak of the door opening.

Urs followed the little creature into the house, and found that the dwarf stone house, which was generally quite spacious, was unexpectedly equipped with a furnace, a casting platform, a quenching pool, and other blacksmith facilities, and the air in the room was warmer than outside, and the only uncomfortable thing was probably that the dwarf building was indeed a little short for a human, although it did not meet head, but the height of the roof was almost close to the young man's hair.

He bowed a little to keep himself from looking like a pillar between the floor and the roof, and then saw the Gisseret of the city, who was both a blind prophet and a legendary craftsman, sitting in a corner of the room, and when he heard the two men coming, he raised his head and smiled and pointed to the side of his finger, and gestured to a weapon which he had made and lay flat on a stone table, as if to say, "Go and try your new companion, which has been lying there waiting for you for a while." ”

"Thanks, Zeken." Urs casually thanked him for building a new weapon for himself, and his eyes followed his fingers to the stone table, and walked towards it, placing his hand on the table, touching a heavy jet-black greatsword placed there.

This newly-made heavy greatsword was thicker than the cursed blade that the young man used to use, and the wide blade should be half the width of the door panel to the naked eye, but the overall look made one wonder if it could be a half-finished product-

After all, this black giant sword from the handle to the half-moon axe-shaped blade is like a large piece of iron that has just been fished out of the magma, but this large piece of iron has been cast into a sword shape, except for the hilt is probably a little decent, the part of the gauntlet is completely connected with the heavy blade, the shape of the wide and thick sword body is not so much used to cut people as it is more suitable for brute force smashing, if necessary, it can even be erected as a shield, and if you look closely, you can also notice that the pitch-black surface is covered with smoky ash marks.

Urs gently touched the new sword, which looked really flattering, and naturally knew in his heart that it was a well-deserved genuine product, and then sighed in a low voice as if talking to himself: "We meet again...... Old man. ”

Then he placed his right hand on it and gently slid it down, as if caressing an old lover who had not been seen for a long time, and the rough five fingers quickly slid to the position of the hilt of the sword and clenched it hard—
