Chapter 517: I Can't Take It Anymore
When Donner and Grunada rushed from Misty Village to the bottom of Fog City when they heard the news, the street closest to the ground of the Knight Federation was already in shambles. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hundreds of mutilated dwarven corpses lay on the icy rocky ground, and the pungent smell of blood permeated the entire street.
Nearly a kilometer down, the ground was also full of corpses, most of them dwarves, and a few of them humans. The knights of Elliot and the city-state of Ganges have vanished without a trace.
Covered in scars, Adarua gasped as she recounted the course of the battle.
“...... We took the elevator up and got ahead of the vanguard before we pushed them back, and Elliot arrived......"
Idarua's account is concise and straightforward, but looking at the tragic situation before him, Donner seems to be able to see the fierce scene with his own eyes.
A powerful vanguard army suddenly assembled outside the town of Yakou, pierced the dwarven army formation with unstoppable momentum, hit the entrance of Fog City, and then climbed the cliff with bare hands, and then the arriving dwarven army took advantage of the clockwork elevator to overtake this vanguard army, nearly 10,000 dwarven warriors threw weapons from top to bottom, and finally hit the vanguard army hard.
By the time Elliot led tens of thousands of cavalry to the entrance of Fog City, it seemed that the tide had turned.
But at this time, the power close to the Holy Rank showed extraordinary power.
Elliot climbed up the street with his weapons thrown down like rain, and then, like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep, slaughtered the almost unarmed army of dwarves, and for a time more dwarves were stumbled and fell off the cliff than by his sword.
If it weren't for the dwarf craftsmen of the upper streets, who shouted the name of "Gru" and pretended that the dwarven king was coming, Eliot might have single-handedly killed the thousands of dwarven warriors who crowded the streets.
Hearing this, the dwarf king Grunada already had a look on his face as if he was about to eat people, and he didn't say a word, and went straight out of the cliff.
Amid the exclamations around him, Donner looked in, only to see Grunada fall into the air, his sword piercing into the cliff, and in the flames that splashed around, his short body froze slightly, and then fell down again, and after a few times, finally fell to the ground.
The dust was everywhere, and the sound of a crashing ground arrived, and the figure of the dwarf king had galloped hundreds of meters to the north.
Donner suddenly felt dizzy and quickly took a few steps back, until he was a few meters away from the cliff, and then he stood still. Although he had been to the bottom of Foggy City a few times, he had difficulty adjusting to the gravity here. What's more, there was hardly any magic element here, and he was so close to the cliff just now, if he stumbled and fell, there was no way to fly.
On the rocky street, where wounded dwarven warriors were everywhere in sight, Cynthia frowned and turned her gaze away from the wounded warriors to Donna.
"He has already run away, he can't catch up. Cynthia sighed.
Donner looked at Grunada, who was still chasing frantically on the ground in the distance, and shook his head slightly: "If you don't chase after him, he won't be able to get out of this breath." ”
......
Two days later, at noon, in a restaurant run by a dwarf in the middle of Foggy City, Donner, Wesley, Cynthia, and the dwarven king Grunada sat back.
As Cynthia expected, Grunada failed to catch up with Eliot, and the Elders and Knights of the Ganges city-state were nowhere to be found.
"Gil should have been left in Foggy City!" the dwarven king clenched his fists tightly, the expression on his face extremely painful.
More than a year ago, after the Dwarf King himself stationed in Fog City, his son Gornada returned to the Far North Country, on the one hand, to strengthen the defense of the Far North Country, and on the other hand, because Gernada needed a harsher environment to temper his fighting spirit, in order to cross the last step and enter the Holy Order.
So, Grunada is saying such things now, just because of self-reproach.
Donner understood this, and Cynthia knew better, but both were silent and did not speak.
It took a long time for Cynthia to speak.
"Jesse knows you're in Fog City, and he sent Elliot here, the purpose couldn't be more obvious......" She paused, glanced at Grunada, and continued, "It's still the same, he's trying to provoke us." ”
"He's done it!" Grunada stared motionlessly at the empty table, his eyes grim and his voice low.
The atmosphere was a little heavy, and it was the first time for Wesley to participate in a meeting of this level, and the frenzied violence caused by the dwarf king inevitably made him a little restless. He glanced at Donner, intentionally or unconsciously, but Donner still kept his mouth shut, not as if he was ready to speak.
"Gru, have you thought about it? Why did Elliot stir up the Ganges city-state so easily? You know, we can defend, but we can't attack, because once we attack, then our enemy will not be just the giant Jesse......" Cynthia's tone was faintly warned.
In fact, she was right.
The Dwarves took over the Ganges city-state with gentleness, ignoring all the actions of the Council of Elders except for restricting the military operations of the small city-state, but even so, Elliot easily mobilized them to charge the dwarven legions stationed outside the town.
If the Far North really declared an all-out war on the giant city-states, Jesse had a way to dress up this war as a war between humans and dwarves, and then unite dozens or hundreds of large and small city-states in the west of the Knight Federation to deal with the dwarves together. When the time comes, the country of the far north will be in a predicament of being an enemy.
For thousands of years, the dwarves have paid the price of blood and lives to dig up magic crystals in exchange for food, and while feeding themselves, they have also indirectly fed a small half of the population of the Knight Federation. But this kind of dedication, in the eyes of the humans of the Knight Federation, has become a matter of course.
Shengmien, the principle of fighting Mi Qiu is also valid in this world.
The dwarf king's rough and hairy palm grasped the wooden tabletop, and suddenly there was a "click", and a small piece of the tabletop was crushed by him.
Wesley was also infected by his emotions, and slammed the table and said, "This is too unfair......
Cynthia shook her head and sighed, "Fairness is too much of a luxury for us. ”
At this moment, Donner slowly raised his head, he didn't look at Cynthia, but said to Grunada: "Wait for me for a year, and after a year, we will teach Jesse a lesson together." ”
"Donald......" Cynthia shouted in surprise, "Don't be impulsive, we're on the right path now, aren't we?" the Fog City factory is getting bigger and bigger, and the clockwork battery is about to spread, and with a little more patience, we can build enough harvesters, and one day, food will no longer be a problem......
Grunada looked up at Donner, the bearded dwarf, the muscles on his face were twisting painfully at the moment, he was struggling, the sacrifice of thousands of people made him want to kill Jesse with his own hands immediately, but reason told him that Cynthia was right, the dawn of solving the food dilemma faced by the dwarves and dwarves for thousands of years was at hand, and the spur of the moment could ruin all efforts.
Even Wesley frowned.
"Do you want to think again?" he asked Donner.
Donner shook his head solemnly, "We've endured it long enough, it's time for someone else to put up with it." (To be continued.) )
