Chapter 40: Preparing for War
The dwarven king Ulantuk listened to Arthur's report with a solemn face.
When he heard that the bones of the dwarven ancestors had become necromantic creatures, he hammered the armrest of the bronze throne hard, "Unforgivable, unforgivable!"
The Dwarven King angrily asked, "Do you think who did this, those Terran dark mages?"
Arthur replied truthfully: "I'm not sure, I haven't seen the manipulator behind it in the dark abyss, but the one who can set the dark seal and open up the space to introduce the dark magic element is probably the dark mage." ”
"Do you know where those dark mages are hiding?" the Dwarven King turned to look at Arnold.
Arnold bowed slightly to the Dwarven King, "Your Majesty, you should know that dark mages operate as a family unit, and although I am a dark mage, I only know the news of the Zenaia family I belong to. ”
"Then tell me the news of the Zenaia family, we will go to your patriarch, I am sure he will know more about this matter. ”
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I swore an oath when I joined the family that I would never disclose information about the family to anyone outside the family. ”
Ulantuk's face immediately darkened, "We dwarves kept you here as friends, and we don't mind your status as a dark mage, but you dark mages have used the bones of our ancestors and kept necromantic creatures on the borders of our territory, so if you still don't want to give away the news, you can only ask you to leave." ”
"Although I believe that this incident was not the work of the Zenaia family, I am a member of the dark mages after all, and I am willing to leave, but this matter has nothing to do with Arthur and them. ”
"Wait. Joan suddenly stood up, he knew that once Arnold's stubborn temper came up, no one would be able to pull it back, so he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I don't think you should be in a hurry to seek revenge on the dark magician?"
"What do you mean, do you think we dwarves can endure this?"
Joan explained unhurriedly: "In my opinion, this may not be done by a dark mage, just like Arthur can also do dark magic, but he is not a member of the dark mage. We've seen the patriarch of the Zenaia clan before, and the dark mages are now incapable of building a forbidden dark seal under the dwarves' noses. Taking a step back, even if they had the ability, their target should be the Church, and there was no point in them setting up circles on the border between the dwarves and orcs to house necromantic creatures. ”
The Dwarven King felt that what Joan said seemed to have some truth, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Joan continued while the iron was hot: "No matter who is behind the scenes, the most important thing for us now is to deal with the necromantic creatures in the seal and block the leaked dark magic, if we can't prioritize this hidden danger that will explode at any time, I'm afraid we won't be able to concentrate on dealing with the dark mage, right?"
"You have a point. The Dwarven King turned to Arthur, "How many necromantic creatures did you say were sealed in the Dark Abyss?"
Arthur replied in a low voice: "I have no way to count the specific number, it may be hundreds of thousands, or it may be hundreds of thousands!"
The Dwarven King gasped slightly.
This is an army of necromantic creatures, they are more terrifying than ordinary armies, they are unconscious, they are not afraid of death!
But the dwarves were equally fanatical about war, and the dwarven king shouted, "Order, gather our elite army at once, my boys have something to do this time!"
Arthur immediately stepped forward and said, "We are willing to fight with the dwarves!"
"Thank you, my friend, for go back and rest, and I'll let you know when the war begins. "The Dwarven King seems to have forgotten that he was going to banish Arthur just now.
Looking at the back of Arthur and the others leaving, the dwarf king suddenly said to himself, "It seems that I should tell them about the spatial rift." ”
......
It would take some time for the dwarves to assemble their armies, and Arthur and his men returned to their original residences first.
As he was about to enter the house, Arthur realized that he should find another room for Lingyu, but Gigi was not around for the time being.
"This is your room?"
"Hmm. ”
Ling Yu pushed the door directly and walked in, Arthur was stunned for a moment, and then followed in and closed the door smoothly.
Joan touched Arnold's arm lightly, "You said that marrying a winged woman will not get in the way while you do that, right?"
"I don't have experience, you can follow up and take a look. ”
"You're right. Joan Zhen crept out of Arthur's door.
In the room, Ling Yu was already sitting on the bed, looking at Arthur, who was standing next to him a little helpless, he couldn't help but chuckle: "So you can be shy too?"
"What I said before counts, and if you want to leave now, I can always send you away. ”
"I don't have the face to go back, unless you kill me!" Ling Yu glared at Arthur with big eyes.
Arthur pondered and said, "If you are willing to stay, I will do my best to protect you as long as I live, but I can't promise to marry only one woman?"
"As long as you can afford it, you can marry as many as you want. Lingyu's unexpected answer almost made Arthur's jaw drop.
Orc women are far more open than human women, and orcs are originally polygamous, and the more powerful the orc warriors, the more women they have.
It is a universal law of nature that the strong have the right to mate, so as to ensure that the best offspring can be inherited. Terran society is also the same set of laws, but with the progress of the times, the definition of the strong is no longer limited to force, but also includes wealth and power.
Ling Yu suddenly said to Arthur, who was still stunned in place, "I want to take a bath, can you help me get some water?"
"Huh, is it here?"
Ling Yu took out a large wooden bathtub directly from his spatial bracelet, and then looked at Arthur with a blank eye.
Arthur's bracelet was always stocked with a large amount of water and food, first taking out a bucket of water to pour into the bathtub, then taking out a large pot rack, pouring water into it, and then lighting a huge fireball at the bottom of the pot to start boiling water.
Ling Yu's eyes showed a light of surprise, it turned out that the rumors were true, the men of the human race were more careful than the beasts and knew how to love women, and most of the men of the beast tribe only used their women as tools for venting their desires, giving birth and showing off to each other. It's rare that Arthur is still a fire magician, and he can take a hot bath at any time after that.
After Arthur poured the hot water into the bathtub, Lingyu directly began to undress in front of Arthur.
"Don't you need me out?"
Ling Yu looked at Arthur suspiciously, "Aren't you my man?"
"Then you wait. The black mist quickly poured out of Arthur's body, and as it surged outside the door, it suddenly turned into several thick tentacles and drew towards Joan.
"Why did you make the house dark?"
"I still like the dark, and I suddenly want to take a shower. ”
"Ah, don't come in, the water is splashing out!"
There was a sound of water crashing inside the house......
