Chapter Twenty-Eight: Their Respective Paths

The momentary silence of everyone is not the discouragement after being frustrated, but everyone is thinking about what to do. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Os, as you just said, our Brute Hammer tribe went to the wetlands, and the Black Iron tribe went to the Red Ridge Mountains. So if we don't go to war and just go to these two places, is it okay? "Talon Ex came up with an idea.

Oss didn't think about it, and gave his opinion directly: "I've already thought of this method, Ex. Unlike you who believe me, although many dwarves in the Hammer tribe know me, it is impossible to make everyone leave their homeland and their homeland just because of my few words. What's more, let everyone abandon Ironforge? In the same way, it is impossible for the Brute Hammer Clan, and now suddenly say that the Black Iron Tribe will go to the Red Ridge Mountains, what do you think? ”

Oss's explanation discouraged his brothers, and Kudran said in chagrin, "Damn it, we can't tell everyone about it just because we don't believe it." Os, they didn't even know you had done so much! ”

"With your father here, I'm not worried about the Hammer Clan. Prince Cardros will be able to handle this matter perfectly. Oss comforted his brothers, then continued, "Uncle Gigax, in later generations, there is a story that the Black Iron Tribe is not treated by the dwarves, and they have always been treated differently. Is it true? ”

Jigax didn't think about it, and replied categorically: "Absolutely not!" Os, still the same sentence, the eldest brother regards every dwarf as his own child, and has no prejudice. ”

Kudran also answered Oss's question: "Os, although we have not been to the underground mines, nor have we met Prince Thorisen. However, we still occasionally see black iron dwarves going out. I think the Black Iron Brothers are great dwarves, they are very brave and resilient, and there are many things to learn from us. ”

Oss breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "That's good, pride and prejudice are the original sin that arouses hatred, and they are also the seeds that trigger ****." Uncle Gigax, do you think that if the King of the Mountains is needed to appease Prince Thorisen, or even admit his mistakes, the King of the Mountains can do it? ”

"Yes, as long as it can avoid the division of the dwarves, the eldest brother will do it without hesitation."

Oss nodded and said, "As a latecomer, if you look back at the past, you can always find a lot of shortcomings and mistakes. Uncle Jigax, brothers, I am not belittling the King of the Mountains, but from the perspective of those who come after me, the King of the Mountains is indeed wrong. ”

Gigax agreed with Oss, saying, "Of course, otherwise we wouldn't have come to this dangerous situation." Os, tell me what it is, I'll go back and tell my eldest brother. ”

"Personally, I think there are two main points. First, in the beginning, perhaps the dwarves should not be clearly divided into three tribes, of course, this is not to blame the king of the mountains, because no one could have imagined that more than a thousand years later, the three tribes would be divided because of their own development and growth; Second, it is the matter of Prince Madolan who drove away the Wild Hammer tribe and the Black Iron tribe, in any case, the Iron Furnace Fort is a miracle completed by the three major tribes together, when the Iron Fort can no longer accommodate the next three major tribes, it should also let each tribe move out of a part of the clansmen, and should not let the two tribes leave at the same time, only to make room for the Copperbeard Tribe. ”

The dwarves pondered Os's words for a moment, and they all agreed.

Gothrum said, "That's right, Os. What I hear most from adults is why Prince Madolan and his Copperbeard tribe can live in Ironforge and we can't. ”

Jigax sighed, and his tone was very regretful: "Os, if you had come a hundred years earlier, maybe the problem would have been solved long ago. ”

"We still have a chance." Oss said.

"Yes, we still have time. Os, is there anything else to ask? Jigax asked.

"Yes, this is the most important thing, and it's a mystery. With the power of the King of the Mountain, why did he die so early? This is not perverse, and there is no story of him fighting and dying in battle with others. Also, Why doesn't he have children? ”

Oss was so intrigued by the three brothers that Kudran and Sandmar looked at Gigax and waited to hear his answer.

"This ...... I think only I know about this, and I'm afraid they don't know about it. Jigax fell into memory and said in a low voice, "Ha'thro!! ”

Gigax muttered a dwarven phrase that Oss didn't understand, but Gigax seemed to be stuck in memory and didn't explain. He had no choice but to ask Kudran: "How do you say this in the lingua franca?" ”

Kudran scratched his head, not sure: "It seems to say that the power of the Titans has descended on me." ”

"Titan!?" Oss exclaimed, startling the brothers and waking up Jigax.

"Oss, you know the Titans too?" Kudran asked.

"Of course, they are the Creator. Uncle Gigax, are you saying that the reason why the King of the Mountains died was because of the use of the power of the Titans? ”

Jigax shook his head in denial, but explained: "No, it's not the power of the Titan, it's the power of the big brother himself, he just calls his power that." Big brother he ...... He...... I don't know how Big Brother did it, he actually lifted the Flesh Curse! ”

"Cursed Flesh! You mean, the King of the Mountain, he, who has restored the body of the stone spirit?! Oss exclaimed again.

Jigax nodded sadly and said, "Not only that, but Big Brother has also gone one step further and become stronger. He was almost exactly the same as the Titan described on the Ancient Stone Spirit Disc! The body made of star diamonds is infinitely powerful, and it can open mountains and cracks stones with bare hands. Every inch of his skin is engraved with Titan runes, and no magic can leave even the slightest trace on the big brother. It is such a big brother who protects every dwarf all the way and brings us all safely to the paradise of Danmoro. ”

"It's ...... Was! The gods descend to earth! Oss exclaimed for the third time, "The King of the Mountain! It turned out that he had always maintained the state of being a god! This...... This! I see, no wonder the King of the Mountains has no heirs. Respectable! Alas! ”

After Jigax finished speaking, he lowered his head sadly, remembering the past years on the migration route.

"Os, what is the Flesh Curse? What is Stone Spirit? And what you said about the gods descending to earth, why are you so surprised? The young dwarves did not know these secrets, and they all looked at Os.

Oss stretched out his hand and pinched the face of each of his brothers, and then said, "You see, this is flesh, and when you are wounded, you will bleed." But the dwarves were not like this at first, but stone spirits and earth spirits, that is, rock spirits, earth spirits, without flesh and blood. But one day, suddenly you have flesh and blood, and you are no longer an inorganic body made of ore and earth. Originally, each of the stone spirits and earth spirits was very powerful, and they were quite resistant to magic, and even immune. But with flesh and blood is different, although it can give birth to offspring, and has more feelings and wisdom, it has become relatively weak. For this reason, it is called the Flesh Curse. It is said that the Elder Gods of Azeroth joined forces to do this. ”

"That's pretty cool!" Nuen said.

"But I still like the way it is." Kudran said.

"I also like the way it is, what is so good about the hard rocks, I can break them with a hammer." Gothrum said.

"Brother Naos, what happened to the king's heavenly gods? Why does it not have children and affect his lifespan? Tallon Ex asked, and he suddenly called out to Brother Os, causing everyone to look at him strangely.

"If the flesh curse is lifted, the body of the stone spirit will be restored, and it will naturally be impossible to give birth to offspring. First changed from a stone spirit to a dwarf, and then lifted the curse and turned back into a stone spirit by himself, and two consecutive changes in form will definitely cause some irreversible damage to the body. I suspect that the King of the Mountains can maintain the state of the gods all the time, not necessarily because of his own will, but because he cannot be lifted. Oss speculated.

"You're absolutely right, after the eldest brother lifted the curse of flesh and blood, although his body became extremely powerful, he found that the internal organs were still made of flesh and blood. Os, not only can't the eldest brother turn back into a dwarf, but he can't lift the gods you said about descending to earth, but the internal organs composed of flesh and blood can't support such a body and strength at all! ”

"I see, the great force has caused the internal organs to be overloaded, but they are already decaying. Alas! ”

Oss's long sigh was also the mood of every dwarf, heavy and sad.

At this time, a ray of light came, as if to dispel the haze in everyone's hearts. Everyone looked up, and it was already dawn on the horizon, and before they knew it, a night had passed between conversations.

Oss sorted out his thoughts for a moment and said, "Uncle, my doubts have been solved, and now, it's time for us to go on our own roads." ”

"What should I do when I get back?"

"First of all, you need to return to Ironforge as high-profile as possible, preferably with a show of force. Let every dwarf living in Ironforge, including the Black Iron Clan, know that you exist and that the King of the Mountains has a younger brother! I know that the younger brother of the King of the Mountain is equally powerful! Oss began to command Gigax to act.

"Good!" Gigax didn't ask why, but agreed.

"Second, tell the King of the Mountain everything about the place that has been discussed tonight, and what will happen in the future. Knowing the future in advance and knowing the trajectory of what happened, the king of the mountains must make a decision. ”

"Good!" Jigax also agreed neatly.

"Finally, please stay by the side of the King of the Mountain and wait for our news. When Prince Cardros has made a decision to deal with the position of the Hammer Clan, we will go to Ironforge. ”

"Good!" With that, Gigax turned and went back to his house, packing up his things and preparing to return to Ironforge.

The deliberations have been decided, and the time has passed overnight. Oss was still in good spirits, and neither did the three brothers, Kudran and Sandmar. They returned to their rooms, packed their tents and supplies, and prepared to continue on their way.

After everyone had packed everything up, Oss and his brothers stood at the gate of the camp, and Gigax was the first to say goodbye: "Os, take care all the way. My eldest brother and I are in the Ironforge Castle, waiting for your good news. ”

"Uncle Jigax, have a good trip, take care of the King of the Mountains." Oss said.

"Goodbye, uncle." The three brothers, Kudran and Sandmar, waved their hands and said goodbye.

Gigax smiled, looked carefully at the dwarves in front of him, and did not speak again. Then, with a low "drink", his body was covered with a layer of earth power, and he turned around and jumped, jumping dozens of meters high, jumping directly from the end of the cliff.

Oss and his brothers chased after Jigax's back and ran to the edge of the cliff. At this time, only the figure of Jigax could be faintly seen, tossing and turning on the protruding rocks of the cliff, and soon, disappeared from their sight.

Gosrum said, "Uncle is so good, he actually went down the mountain like this. ”

Oss laughed and said, "It's really out of the ordinary. However, the more powerful the uncle, the more helpful he will be to the dwarves. ”

Kudran asked, "Os, are we going to continue patrolling?" I've always felt that compared to the big things of the dwarves, we would be a waste of time when we went on patrol. ”

"It's not that you have to go on patrol, it's just that it's not appropriate to go back to Karanos rashly. After all, I'm a human, and not even a few people in the Hammer Clan know where I came from. So, your father, Prince Cardros, whether he believes me or not, is the most important thing. Only if he comes forward, every dwarf of the Brute Hammer tribe will believe it. ”

Everyone agreed with Os's explanation, and Nuen said, "I don't know what happened to Uncle Yuregal, and whether he persuaded the prince." ”

"Trust Uncle Garr, his talent and wisdom are not low. In the future, Uncle Gal will be a very powerful person. ”

Oss's words aroused the curiosity of the brothers again, and Tallon Ex asked, "What about us, Brother Ost?" You haven't even said anything about us, what will we be like in the future? ”

Oss thought about it with a smile, and before he could speak, Gothrum said, "Stupid brother, Oss is younger than us, why do you call him big brother." ”

Tallon Ex retorted: "Brother Oss is better than each of us, who of you knows more than him, who can convince Uncle Jigax, who can solve the big problem of the dwarves!" ”

Kudran, Nuen, and Gothrum were all stunned, and Oss laughed and said, "Ax, in the future, you are also very good." Seeing the expectant stares of Kudran on the side, Oss continued, "Haha, each of you is very powerful, and you are all powerful dwarves in the Brute Hammer tribe who can take charge on their own! Originally, I had heard of each and every one of you. ”

"Oh!" "Hahahaha!" "Great!" "I can do it on my own!" The three brothers, Kudran and Sandmar, shouted with joy.

By this time, the sky was already bright, and the warm sun was shining on everyone.

Oss clapped his hands and stopped his brothers. He tightened the space backpack on his back, the round shield on his left arm, and the weapon on his waist, and said, "Okay, it's time for us to leave, let's go." ”
