Of course Ryan doesn't know what happened in the cabin, and he doesn't want to know, because now he just wants to sneak out and avoid the Shura Field. He doesn't want to be involved, and he doesn't want to be the referee.
This is not to say that Ryan is a scumbag, but the relationship between the Lake Fairy and the Lake Witch is a master-servant relationship. Basically all the power of the Lake Witch comes from the gift of the Lake Fairy. Lilith has control over Morgiana.
Naturally correct and legal, and due to this relationship and the previous turkey dinner agreement, Ryan felt that the Fairy of the Lake and the Witch of the Lake would not really take action, and it would just be some verbal disputes at most.
The deck of the passenger ship is not very spacious, and there are not many people on it. Several Red Navy sailors who are familiar with the route are adjusting the sails. The captain is an experienced Poseidon knight. Ryan greeted them and learned that he wanted to reach Dudu.
It will take at least a week to get to Dragon City, and this is even if the dwarves of Dulong City provide very detailed navigation charts and compasses.
Later, Ryan noticed that Belegar's eldest son, Thor Green Hammer, and his good friend Runesmith Master Slud, the son of Honest, Jed Honest, were carrying two mustache dwarves behind their backs.
A dwarf firecracker, holding a telescope and looking at the scenery on the ocean.
"Oh, it's His Majesty Lane~" Little Sol Green looked at the sea and coast with a large number of ice floes in the distance with a telescope: "Look at Your Majesty Lane, there is a Minotaur sleeping on the shore there."
"Minotaur biss, I am the pure love god of war, where is it?" Ryan also took out a monocular telescope, and he soon saw a large minotaur eating and drinking on the beach on the coastline, leaning against a boulder.
Sleep on it.
"Over there, over there!" Little Thorgreen took out the bullets and stuffed them into his long-barreled musket. He aimed at it for a while and then put it down: "No, it's too far. Grimnir is here, my musket."
It can’t hit that far.”
"Let me try." Ryan put down the monocular, and the King of Knights began to gather his psychic power.
Hmm, a bit weak! Ryan suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his body. A feeling of emptiness spread throughout his body. The Gray Knight Primarch thought that this was probably what the Emperor felt after sitting on the Golden Throne for a long time.
Feel it.
It took a lot of time for Ryan to condense a silver spear that was completely silver-white.
"Go!" The spear turned into a silver meteor and rushed along the sea plain. It gradually divided into eight psychic light spears in the air and attacked directly at eight places on the Minotaur's body. Under the lightning of psychic light,
In the whirlpool, the tauren was penetrated by the psychic light spear, screamed and died in his sleep.
"Ah ha, His Majesty Ryan still shoots so accurately." Little Sol Green and Jed clapped their hands excitedly. Although these two mustaches are about the same age as Ryan (actually a few years older), they are very fond of Ryan.
There is a kind of instinctive worship and awe.
Dwarves are generally not so stubborn when they are young. These mustaches are willing to accept new things and have an attitude of being interested in everything. They are often pioneers who dare to try new ideas and develop new technologies. However, the Dwarf Rune Craftsmen Association
and the Dwarf Engineers Association are often a large group of white people
Controlled by old dwarves with beards, those old dwarves with white beards are stubborn, conservative, and hate flexibility and progress. Generally speaking, all kinds of whimsical ideas and technological innovations of mustachioed engineers will be blocked. Of course, technological innovation and new thinking are dangerously easy.
Explosive, but mostly dwarves resist change.
There are only two reasons for the technological progress and innovation of the dwarves. The first is the needs of the dwarves. This need may be due to military needs due to huge external pressure, it may be the administrative order of the dwarf king or even the high king, or it may be economic. the need for development and territorial expansion.
The second reason is that the news of some powerful technology and technology developed by the human kingdom or the elves often reaches the dwarves. The old white-bearded dwarves cannot bear the humiliation and will immediately start to make breakthroughs and transcendences until It proves that dwarf technology is the best technology so far.
Basically, nothing happens to the mustaches. They are always suppressed by the name of protection, or protected by the name of suppression.
But little Thorgreen is different. This little beard has followed Belegar everywhere. He has seen, walked, and seen things that other white-bearded dwarves may have never seen in their lives. The rich experience makes the little Thor Greene different. Thorgrim, just like the High King Old Thorgrim - The Grudge Bearer, had traveled to the old world and had a deeper understanding and knowledge of the current situation of the dwarves and the old world.
Belega probably took this into consideration and simply asked his son to follow Ryan. On the one hand, he would exercise and gain experience, and on the other hand, it would be safer.
"Your Majesty Ryan, how could you ever think of negotiating with the dwarves of Dulong City?" Little Sol Green put the gun back behind his back, with some uncertainty in his tone: "To be honest, these dwarves may not be so easy to communicate with. , you have to be prepared to be tested by them."
"Test?" Ryan became interested: "Little Sol Green, speaking of which, how much do you know about Dulong City?"
"Dwarves from Dulong City?" Little Sol Green thought for a while and said hesitantly: "Compared with the previous and later events, you also heard from His Majesty the Supreme King and his father, well... I can say that, at that time, the Supreme King The king invited this group of dwarves to return to the old world. The reason why the dwarves of Dulong City refused was not only for economic reasons, that is, the rich mineral veins in the Norsca Mountains, but also made a request by Lord Torgard-The Crimson One."
"What's the request?" Ryan became interested.
"One north and one south, one great king and one supreme king." Little Thorgrim sighed: "How can this be negotiated? Lord Torgard only agreed to give in on the seniority and call Thorgrim the Supreme King. Say 'Uncle'."
"Pfft~" Ryan almost spat out.
Indeed, according to this condition, it is unlikely that the two parties will be able to achieve success in the negotiation.
The origin of the dwarves in Dulong City has been mentioned before, so I won’t repeat it here. I only emphasize one point here, that is, most of the dwarves in Dulong City originally followed the three main dwarf gods, Granny and Grimm. Nier and Valaya once went on an expedition to the Chaos Wasteland together to try to close the Chaos Portal. After finding rich mineral veins in Norsca, many dwarf expedition members chose to stay and build their homes here. During the invasion, due to Granny's timely dispatch of a messenger, the dwarves of Dulong City made enough preparations in advance to survive, and they did not experience the Battle of Changsu and the subsequent catastrophic period, thus ensuring that their national strength and numbers were not destroyed. blow.
However, just as little Thor Green said, the dwarves of Dulong City have been accustomed to independence for thousands of years. In their hearts, they do not want to return to the system of Karak-Angar (the mountain kingdom of the dwarves). Then It means that they will be controlled by the Supreme King.
Who wants to be disciplined by multiple superiors without any reason?
Moreover, the dwarves of Dulong City still cannot deny the legitimacy of the High King. Needless to say, how strong the legitimacy of Eternal Peak is? The first Supreme King was Snorri-Bai, the eldest son of the dwarf god Gruni and Valaya.
It must be noted that every subsequent generation of supreme kings will inherit the throne strictly according to the nearest direct bloodline, with maximum legitimacy.
What's even worse is that dwarves are different from humans and elves, let alone the eternal dark elves and wood elves of the dynasty. Even the most powerful high elves and empires, including the Phoenix King, have humble origins, and so do the emperors of the empire.
The savior country bumpkin who came out of the countryside of Nuer, even the kingdom of knights that pays the highest attention to blood and legitimacy, still has kings like Rose Knight Taylor and Sledgehammer Knight Ryan who rise to the rank of minor nobles.
But dwarves do not. For dwarves, princes, generals and ministers are really talented. This is not a joke. Dwarves are a race that is stubborn and conservative to the point of being almost abnormal. In the dictionary of dwarves, nepotism and nepotism are
Class solidification is not only not
It is a derogatory term, and it is also a complimentary term. For example, if Ryan explains to little Sol Green why he is a member of the Zhao family and why he is a surging back wave, little Sol Green will not only not find it ironic, but he will probably be proud of his meaning.
Zhao Liang is very high.
However, this world is so helpless, because the division of dwarves is actually reasonable. To give the simplest example, all dwarf rune craftsmen must have the blood of Granni, otherwise they will not be able to master the power of runes. Therefore, the runes
The Literary Craftsmen Association is not so much an organization as it is a clan alliance.
Therefore, class conflicts among dwarves also exist. Otherwise, there would not be so many dwarf immigrants immigrating to the empire and all over the world. Otherwise, the great engineer Jerrick Grimm from Haimen Pass under Fulgrim would not
I chose to run to the new world and start a new business on my own. It’s just that the dwarves are now
In a difficult situation, there are enemies everywhere, so this is only a secondary contradiction. Furthermore, the stubbornness and stubbornness of the dwarves are similar to those of the Brittanian knights. Whenever they encounter difficulties and enemies, the dwarf royal family and the knights
They always charge forward personally, and the civilians have nothing to say about this.
If you were to enjoy a high status and various rights in normal times, but in the event of a war, civilians and temporary conscripts would go up to support you, and you would hide in the fortress, it would be unreasonable.
Ryan chatted with Little Thor Green and Jade for a while, and found that they were indeed deeply influenced by the outside world, especially Little Thor Green had many new ideas in his mind. Little Thor Green also believed that,
The Norscan mountains are no longer what they used to be. They are dangerous and uncertain. The dwarves should unite.
"Is there any new news from the Belega brothers?" Ryan and Little Sol Green chatted for a while, knowing that the dwarves they came to Dulong City would definitely encounter some tests. The Knight King was also relieved: "Speaking of which, the distance is
Several years have passed since the Eight Peaks Expedition."
"It's only been a few years, what kind of news can come from father?" Little Sol Green felt that Ryan was really in a hurry. Little Iron Hammer looked unconcerned: "In this little time, father can settle down the interior of Bafeng Mountain and restore it."
The production is good. Your Majesty Lane, don't be so anxious. Patience is a virtue. My father spent hundreds of years to regain the Eight Peaks Mountain."
"..." Ryan thought to himself that he had almost forgotten that dwarves have different concepts of time. Ordinary dwarves have a lifespan of three to four hundred years. As for a dwarf king like Belega in the sanctuary who lives for a thousand years, it is not a problem. For little Thor Green,
He said that he had just ventured out for a while. Why was he in such a hurry to communicate in such a short time?
"But speaking of which, Your Majesty Lane, there is indeed a message from Haimen Pass." Little Sol Green took out a letter from his arms, and his mustache was a little embarrassed: "It just arrived, from the Haimen Pass Dwarf Engineers Association.
Yes, it says that the second ironclad ship you ordered has been completed."
"Oh! Is the second ironclad ship completed?" Ryan's eyes lit up. The King of Knights looked at the ocean of Kislev Bay and fell into deep thought. The second ironclad ship will greatly enhance Britannia's maritime power.
This steel monster will become a strong guarantee for the safety of the Kurona-Erengrad trade route.
What should we name this ironclad ship?
Illustrious? Richelieu? Belfast?
Or the Prinz Eugen or the Hood? The Formidable seems to be good too.
Otherwise, let’s call him Shirakami Fubuki. Ryan thought with a wicked sense of humor.
Aqua can't do it, it's too stupid.
"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty, there is something else that has been delivered. I forgot to tell you." As expected, little Thor Green was still a mustache and not reliable enough. He suddenly slapped his head: "Coming from the Eternal Peak, Supreme
The king specially sent a team of eternal guards to escort it. It just arrived yesterday. I thought it was unreliable to leave it in Erengrad, so I brought it to the ship. I'm sorry, Your Majesty Lane, I drank too much last night.
Forgot."
"Then you will be punished by doing thirty squats." Ryan said with squinting eyes: "Walaya will not forgive such a low-level mistake."
"Understood!" Little Thorgreen immediately raised his chest to show that he understood. The mustache just held his head with his hands and did squats. For dwarves, squats are really troublesome, and it is not a joke punishment.
"Where are the things?" Ryan turned to ask Jed Honesty, who was watching the show and helping to count. This son of a master rune craftsman especially likes to use various firearms and fly a dwarf helicopter, which is also a bit interesting. He seems to be better than a craftsman.
Master, he wants to be an engineering master.
After talking to the two mustaches, Ryan met Otto Bagley, the big trench businessman from Brittany who had come with him. This big trench businessman turned out to be one of the top richest men in Britannia.
Later, it was gradually overtaken by the Hadrian Chamber of Commerce and the Oliver Chamber of Commerce, but it was still the local Britannia company.
As the representative of the merchants, Ryan thought that after Oliver controlled the wood elf trade and Hadrian controlled the overseas trade of Lustria, he would also let the local merchants have some soup, so he asked him to follow him to discuss some details and details.
The specific distribution matters still need to be discussed by professional businessmen.
Unfortunately, this poor guy had a cold, so he could only hide in the room, wrapped in a quilt, with a runny nose and warming himself by the fire. Seeing him like this, Ryan couldn't say much to him, so he just asked him to take good care of himself. It would take another week for us to arrive alone.
Dragon City.
After wandering outside for two full hours, Ryan finally returned to his room. The King of Knights held a huge box in his hands, with Granny's mark on it and the President of the Eternal Peak Dwarf Rune Craftsmen Association, Chief Rune
The personal mark of master craftsman Clark-Harsh means that this is his work.
This box is more expensive than a farm estate.
Seeing Ryan coming in, the Lake Fairy, who was in high spirits, and the Lake God Witch, who was holding her skirt and her face was red all over, gathered around her.
"What is this, dear?" the Lake Fairy asked with interest as she watched Ryan put the big box on the ground.
"Ryan, what did you do outside? Why...why did you come back?" Morgiana didn't look strange on the surface, but her walking posture was a bit strange, and her face was very red, and she almost subconsciously held her arm.
He took Ryan's arm and half hid behind him, as if looking for a safe haven.
"This is what I ordered from the Supreme King last time. It's finally done." Ryan put down the big box and took out the key to open it.
"This is?!" A dazzling light came out from the gap in the box.
The attention of the Lake Fairy and the Lake Witch were instantly attracted by the contents of the big box.
On top of the thick satin and velvet, there were eleven short walking sticks, about 50 centimeters long and 3.5 centimeters in diameter.
These eleven canes are all made of vibranium, mithril, gold, diamonds and various gemstones, with exquisite workmanship. The dwarven runes on the canes are sparkling. The power of the powerful runes is a gift from Eternal Peak and a symbol of friendship.
At the same time, it also contains the effect of protecting and greatly enhancing the user's abilities.
Both ends of the cane are decorated with pattern reliefs, and the middle is engraved with dozens of iris reliefs. One end is a lion sculpture made of vibranium, and the other end is decorated with a king's crown in relief.
"This is the scepter of the Marshal of Britannia that I customized from the Eternal Peak." Ryan picked up a scepter, and the king couldn't help but play with it.
"After this incident is over and I return to China, I will officially confer the title of the top ten marshals of Britannia!"
"This is the marshal candidate list I envisioned. Now, Madam, Morgiana, let us go through the details?"
