Chapter 428 Disaster of Elves

After making this decision very happily, Levi did not care about the follow-up matters and instead reunited with Khalida.

There, a dwarf who looked like a wealthy man wearing armor, warhammer and shield, all equipped with runes, was already talking to Khalida.

Khalida was wearing a golden mask, so of course she couldn't see any expression, but the dwarf's expression was always very exaggerated, so Levi could easily know that the dwarf was still very grateful for his reinforcements.

There were also a group of guys who looked like God's chosen heroes just by looking at their clothes, and an extremely special dwarf heroic warrior. They were all looking at him eagerly at this moment, especially the spirit body.

Levi felt a little confused. After thinking about it for a moment, he knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the other party should be an ancestral heroic spirit from the orthodox king of Bafeng Mountain, Belegar Iron Hammer, and a hero close to level 20.

In the process of regaining the Eight Peaks Mountain in the past, Belegar successively awakened many powerful heroic warriors. They were all once important members of the Eight Peaks Mountain, or simply his direct ancestors.

They died fighting against the greenskins in the past, and now they have returned as ancestral spirits to take revenge on the greenskins and try to help Belegar regain the lost land.

Judging from the appearance of the opponent using muskets and hammers as weapons, and carrying a bunch of tripods and other engineering props on his back, he should be Drama Hammerfist, a master of engineering who is good at commanding various war instruments.

Then Khalida also introduced Li Wei, and it turned out that the person she was communicating with was the owner of this place, Kazrik, the son of the dragon slayer of Iron Peak Castle.

Unlike his father, he is not a pure warrior, but a runesmith who studied under another legend of Iron Peak Castle - Torek Ironbrow.

At the same time, he was also the person responsible for signing the treaty with Khalida, so although the two parties did not interact very frequently in the past, they were indeed not strangers.

Kazric did not expect that at such a critical moment, the legendary hero Khalida would personally attack, so he seemed particularly excited.

The ancestral heroic spirit was indeed sent by Belegar as he had guessed.

But Kazric didn't say much specifically. He just expressed his gratitude to them for being able to lend a helping hand at such a moment, and then invited them to enter the fortress to rest and discuss how to deal with the greenskin tide next.

Levi was doing his best, and Khalida was just there rushing, but he was fighting almost all the time.

Even with the energetic effect, he doesn't feel any physical fatigue, but his spirit is always very tense, and he really needs to take a rest.

Although the other party didn't mention anything about remuneration at all, Khalida secretly gave Levi a wink, indicating that she would take care of everything.

Levi naturally smiled in response, but in fact, even if she didn't say anything, he wouldn't be worried about this problem at all. Dwarves, like high elves, never like to owe favors.

What's more, just when the other party glanced at him, the system reminded him that his reputation in Tiefeng Castle directly came to respect, which was enough to show the gratitude of the other party to him.

On the way, it didn't take long for several dwarf heroes to come over to express their goodwill to Li Wei.

Not only because they recognized him as Levi, a well-known person on the forum, but also because everyone was not a fool, and he and Khalida were obviously extremely close.

Coupled with the large number of constructs in Levi's army, especially those sphinxes, they were really tempted.

Li Wei smiled secretly, knowing that he would have a new sales channel.

In fact, he had already expected this. When the dwarves were in their heyday, they used runes to create some rune golems, which basically looked like enlarged versions of dwarf constructs.

Compared with the Death Guard, the energy they use may be very different, but their actual uses are almost the same, that is, war tools and consumables.

Moreover, the dwarves have almost no cavalry, and the air force only has a few helicopters. They are not bad at the beginning, but when faced with the green-skinned rocs and wyverns, they look like toys.

In addition to their acceptable attack power, they are completely inferior to their opponents in terms of power, flexibility, battery life, etc.

At this time, the benefits of Eagle Guard can be reflected.

After first coming up to flatter me and expressing their gratitude and admiration, several dwarves led by Storm Warhammer made a very direct purchase request. Not surprisingly, they were all Eagle Guards.

Although the sphinx is undoubtedly the coolest looking one, they are also smart enough not to speak.

Whether Li Wei sells it or not is one thing, and they may not be able to afford it. It is better to wait until he is more familiar with it before deciding, so as not to be slaughtered directly by his lion.

Levi would naturally not refuse, and Khalida also lacked air force, so in addition to the Sphinx, most of what he had recently made were Eagle Guards, and there were quite a few space rings.

As for the price, he couldn't give the other party too much discount. It had to be at least 30% to 50% higher than the price given to Khalida.

But Storm Warhammer and the others don't care too much about this, because whether they are aborigines or divinely chosen heroes, as long as they have their own villages and minerals, they are not too short of money.

Especially after learning blacksmithing and other technologies, they will not be short of money.

What they lack is magic items and the authority to recruit.

Although the many arms of the dwarves are very elite and can be regarded as the best among the same level. When fighting against each other at the same level, one can often defeat many, but their biggest problem is always the number.

Not to mention the God-chosen heroes, even the indigenous people worry about this every day.

The most recent example is Belegar Ironhammer. In order to regain the Eight Peaks Mountain, he sent out a request for assistance to almost the entire dwarf clan.

So after some transactions, Li Wei made a net profit of a little over two thousand gold coins.

After all, the core material of the Death Guard is soul crystal, followed by its unique manufacturing technology. As for other raw materials such as metal or stone, they are very cheap.

At this point, the other party still looked like they were still unsatisfied, and it was obvious that they had not yet reached their limit.

But Li Wei considered that he also needed to keep some backup, so he could only decline temporarily.

At least he had to wait until he had used up the harvested soul crystals tonight, before he would consider selling them again, and he had to leave some for the aborigines.

In addition to the local master Kazric, the dwarf heroic spirit also looked at him with ardent eyes, and he obviously had some thoughts.

The reason why they haven't come now is probably because of the dwarves' reserve and pride.

But if he takes the initiative later, the other party will not refuse even if he wants to come.

After the transaction, both parties felt that their relationship had become much closer, and Levi casually asked about some nearby information, especially the dwarves' reaction to the greenskins' action.

Storm Warhammer and others did not hide it, because this information was not a secret.

To put it simply, the situation of the dwarves is very embarrassing now. They know that the situation is very serious, but apart from shrinking the defense line, calling all the tribesmen from the outside villages back into the fortress, and focusing on defense, there is almost nothing they can do.

Because the gap in military strength is really huge, the enemies of the dwarves are not just the greenskins.

Many dwarf fortresses are connected to the Underdark below, so they have to beware of the ratmen, gray dwarves, drow and other evil races below who may take advantage of the situation to rob them.

There are not only greenskins on the ground, but also goblins, beasts, undead and many other enemies. The troops were already stretched thin, but now they are completely insufficient.

Fighting is definitely necessary, but when to fight, how to fight, and what to use are all questions.

Compared with the booming human beings and the elves who still maintain their strength, the current dwarves are just like the greenskins. Strictly speaking, they have already passed their most glorious golden age and have begun to gradually come to an end.

The reason why they were not as miserable as the greenskins before was simply because they had a large number of allies and were stronger on average.

But now that we are facing such a real war, our own weakness is immediately apparent.

In fact, Li Wei had already guessed this. Apart from anything else, the fact that Belega has not been able to recover all of Bafeng Mountain after so many years of attacking it is enough to illustrate the problem.

But being able to tell him this information after their first meeting shows the sincerity of Storm Warhammer and others.

Seeing that Li Wei always looked calm and calm, several dwarves looked at each other, and finally it was Storm Hammer who spoke.

It turns out that not all of them are locals, some of them came from Bafeng Mountain a few days ago.

Belegar found the resting place of another ancestral spirit, named Troni Ironbrow, who was a master runesmith and the ancestor of the legendary runesmith of Iron Peak Castle.

But awakening the ancestors' spirits is not that simple. First, they need to find a powerful legal unit to help lift the seal.

Since it is almost impossible for dwarves to learn magic, their choices are extremely limited. Basically, they can only be runesmiths, which Belegar did before.

But unfortunately, the legendary rune blacksmith who took action recently was out searching for materials and exploring the lost dwarf fortress, and was temporarily absent, so they ran over to ask the owner of this place, Kazric, for help.

Originally the other party had already agreed, but as a lord of one side, he still needed to deal with some territorial matters, so it took a little time. Unexpectedly, they happened to catch up with this matter.

For Kazric, this is something to be thankful for, because if this place was besieged by the greenskin army while he was away, it would probably be difficult to survive.

But for Storm Warhammer and others, this is a bit uncomfortable.

Because in this situation, Kazric was definitely unable to help, and they were even forced to stay and fight side by side with each other. Not only were several days wasted in vain, but the mission might also fail.

But when Levi and Khalida's armies both arrived, they felt that there was a new way out.

Compared to Kazric, Levi is the truly orthodox mage!

At the same time, this can also solve another headache problem for them.

They have discovered the mission location, which is a valley, but not only is it shrouded in fog, there are also many evil undead people on the periphery, especially many spirits. The place seems to be occupied by necromancers or vampires.

Dwarves do not have mages, and most of their priest units focus on protection and supplement with healing, so they are not good at dealing with spirits.

They usually use iron dragon hand cannons and other fire attacks to fight against spirit enemies.

Although we haven't seen Levi take action yet, he has many mages under his command, and there are so many heavenly creatures. If he takes care of the undead, the success rate will definitely be greatly improved.

Even to show his sincerity, Storm Warhammer took the initiative to share the mission without Li Wei opening his mouth.

After a quick glance, Li Wei readily agreed, because the mission rewards were really good.

As long as he completes it, not to mention conventional rewards such as gold coins, his reputation with Belega will directly reach 80% friendliness. At the same time, he can also unlock the permission to recruit corresponding troops and provide him with a variety of equipment to choose from.

If he performs well, he will be rewarded with additional mid- to high-level runes and rune equipment.

In the past few years, Belegar has successively recovered many peaks in the Eight Peaks Mountains and opened some treasure houses. He is really unambiguous in terms of money and material.

Even Li Wei thought more. The reason why they headed west this time was firstly to protect the city of Lahmia from the greenskins, and secondly to sell the dwarves a favor.

If Khalida can send troops to help Kazric defend this place, and if he can help Belegar awaken an ancestral spirit, it will undoubtedly be a great success.

And this will also be very convenient for him to obtain the nine volumes of Nagash in the Eight Peaks Mountain.

Because whether it is the many dwarf kingdoms, clans, or the dwarf gods, they all unanimously recognize one thing. Belegar is the legal master of the Eight Peaks Mountain, and it has always belonged to him.

This time, I first helped Belegar awaken an ancestral heroic spirit, and then went to help out near Bafeng Mountain, and maintained a good relationship with him.

Later, when Belegar successfully regained the Eight Peaks Mountain, he would have to pay a little more price. With Belegar's character, it would not be particularly difficult for him to obtain the nine volumes of Nagash.
