No matter how Charles reacted to the news of the Dark Elf's disappearance, he couldn't give up the unfinished task at the moment, run to find the missing cheap daddy, or even comfort himself that the guy had a natural appearance.

After a night's rest in the dwarven city-state of Beregost.

The next morning, he rode the White Deer King with his escort to leave the Blue Mountains and return to the Land of the Seven Rivers.

Before leaving, the dwarven king Azaghar also gave him a longsword with a crossed hilt, which was beautifully crafted but full of edge.

It is a sword of kings that matches the crown presented by the Dwarven King of Norgrod.

Charles is equally receptive.

The elves then bid farewell to the dwarves and followed the dwarven path carved out in the mountains towards the territory.

The journey was safe and smooth, without the slightest surprise.

In fact, the current pattern of Middle-earth is generally peaceful, and the enemy in the north is still surrounded and stopped by the Noldor elven army, unable to move.

Even if there are some covert means and threats, it will still not see the light of day.

It's a pity that since it was discovered by the elves, one of the more important ways to see the light has been targeted.

……

At a glance, the river ahead is fierce and exciting.

The sound of the raging water, the pure and cold light that spreads from the mountains, beats on the rocks in the river, and makes some birds spin high in the river for a long time and refuse to leave.

The river is wide, even vast.

At the end of the river's sight, in the distance, a rising land was shrouded in mist, like a huge roadblock, dividing the river called Abdulant in two, bending a deep arc, and then converging together at the end of the river.

The "monolith" is called Torgaran, and it is covered with dense forests and lush greenery, and it is also known as the Green Island in the mouth of the Nando people.

At this moment, a large number of Nando people are converging on the island from the north, and then merging into the large army.

Standing at the edge of the forest, looking at the makeshift camp built on the edge of the Abdul Lante River, and finding that the crowded camp was quite orderly, Charles couldn't help but look at Calebdir standing beside him, "The migration is still going well?" ”

"In addition to the original number, there are also some scattered people of the same clan who have followed." Kelle Boudir, who was the commander-in-chief of the relocation, replied, "But this is not an accident. ”

"It's a bonus." Charles nodded with a smile.

Although elves are different from humans, they are also group animals, and group animals will always have a certain degree of blind obedience.

Therefore, even those elves who had not joined the nascent kingdom would gradually be unable to sit still after watching countless of their fellow clans rushing to the south.

Charles hadn't thought about it before, but he felt that it made sense.

The migration of the Nando was a tedious but important process, and after returning from the Dwarves, the Charr did not travel north to participate in the training of Nando's army, but came here.

On the one hand, it was because he was more serious about this migration, and on the other hand, he needed to be here for the dwarven construction team.

The purpose of this trip to the dwarven city-state was successfully achieved, but the dwarves did not send construction personnel to help in the first place.

The main thing is that they also need a certain amount of time to organize the manpower.

It takes a lot of people to build a city from scratch, and although the dwarves are proficient in it, they can't just send a few dwarves to do the task.

Compared with the elves who are almost immortal, the lifespan of dwarves at this time is about 300, which is much longer than that of humans, but it is not endless.

That is, dwarves, despite their great talents, may be proficient in one or several jobs in a limited time, but they cannot be all-rounders.

To build a city, it is also a very cumbersome matter to dispatch talents in all aspects. And because they are two dwarven city-states, they actually need to communicate with each other.

"Prepare the reception of the dwarves in advance," said Charles, after glancing at the narrow camp that stretched along the banks of the river, "dwelling, food, habits, and taboos. The main thing is fiery wine. ”

He specifically admonished this.

"Helping us build the city is a subsidiary clause of the covenant, and the dwarves have asked for nothing else, but we can't use them as free labor. The dwarves like fiery wine, so let them drink as much as they want. ”

"Will this delay normal work?" Kellebudier had doubts about this.

"That's what I thought." Charles smiled and said, "But through this visit, I found that those dwarves are just as good at working even if they are drunk, and they won't affect too much, not to mention ......"

He thought for a moment and said, "We don't have to worry too much. ”

There really is no need to rush.

Their current enemies are the orcs in the Blue Mountains, and the Charr had planned to unite with the dwarves against those enemies. The dwarves, however, had a different idea about it.

Just as the Nandor claimed the vast realm of the Land of the Seven Rivers as their own territory, the Blue Mountains Eriedruin is the self-proclaimed domain of all dwarves.

Now that their territory is sneakily prepared to go through the "back door" by foreign enemies, then they are naturally obliged to clear it out. There's no need to do anything with the others, or the side elves—unless they can't deal with it.

In a word, they are grateful to the Nando for the news, but the help is not needed for the time being.

Charles thinks that the dwarves are very conceited and stupid, because the Nando clan belongs to the free combat power sent to the door, but the other party doesn't want it?

This was no exception even to the cunning King of Norgrod.

Cunning, loyal, stubborn, eccentric......

The dwarves give him a funny, sometimes contradictory, feeling.

But overall, the charr had a good impression of them.

"It's just that if you don't get involved in the war, how can you unite a group of shrimp soldiers and crabs."

Charles muttered and said to Celebdir, "When the situation here is stable, I will send some scouts to the dwarves, they have great strength, but not very good eyesight. ”

This eyesight has a double meaning.

"Your Majesty, you don't have faith in the dwarves?"

"I only have faith in myself." Charles shrugged his shoulders, and then without waiting for the other party to continue asking, he added: "Supervise Glover's work more, pull up the logistics team as soon as possible, and then exchange with the dwarves for equipment." Even if it's not dangerous now, it'll happen in the future. Since we've done it, we're going to do our best. ”

Cele Boudir nodded.

"And," Charles said, glancing at the crowded camp on the shore in the sun, "the dwarves will bring some blacksmiths, and you can find time to organize some of your kindred who are interested." ”

The voice paused, and said, "I will participate in the study with them." ”
