The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 352
Since it was already afternoon when Luohan arrived at the Eternal Peak, the dwarves took Luohan to hold a party in the palace, and it was not until late at night that they brought the dizzy Luohan to his room.

Luo Han, who was drunk with spirits by the enthusiastic dwarves, basically fell asleep. If he hadn't been secretly using high-level magic to suppress the alcohol, he might have already vomited on the ground!
The dwarf in charge of the escort looked at the ugly-faced Rohan mockingly. After all, there were very few opportunities to see his elf friend make a fool of himself.

As for the two princes and princesses from Ulthuan?

Huh~
Two bad bean sprouts who dare not even drink dwarf spirits, if it weren't for the fact that they were the envoys of the Phoenix King, the Supreme King would have driven them out of the Eternal Peak to drink the northwest wind.

The dwarves' banquet will only accept those true friends forever!

In the hall of Eternal Peak, although a grand dinner has just ended, for these energetic dwarf representatives, the most important meeting has just begun:
"Brother Luohan's envelope, I think everyone here has read it. What do you think of the trade agreement between these two groups of elves?"

On the dwarven throne at this time, Erickson looked at the representatives of the clans present with a majestic gaze, and there was no trace of the drunkenness when he and Luo Han had a good time with him earlier on his face.

This is not because he made a hypocritical disguise when facing Luohan, but simply because he is too well tolerated by alcohol, he has sobered up in less than two hours...

But because of this, he is no longer the dwarf king who has a good personal relationship with Rohan at the wine table, but is now sitting on the throne, the supreme king who shoulders the fate of all dwarves!

"In terms of price, I still support continuing to trade with the Phoenix Royal Court. After all, they offer too much. The price alone is twice as high as Brother Luohan!"

"Well... Although the prices offered by those elves from the Phoenix Royal Court are very attractive, they have also betrayed the trade treaty of our ancestors before. Do we really want to cooperate with them?"

"But the Phoenix Royal Court is willing to return many rune weapons and ancestor relics that we lost during the Vengeance War. This is more valuable than money!"

(War of Revenge: The War of Long Beard, but this name is insulting, so the dwarves call it the War of Revenge)
……

In the face of the High King's inquiry, the representatives of the various clans who were also sober in the audience immediately quarreled and explained to each other which elf to sign a trade treaty with was more in line with the interests of the dwarves.

There is no doubt that the price offered by the wealthy high elves is far higher than that of the dark elves, and they can also obtain a lot of long-lost dwarf technology, which is obviously more cost-effective.

But the problem was that Keithles's haughty character really offended people too much. In just a few short years, that disgusting face had already successfully offended many dwarves.

In contrast, Rohan, who had saved the lives of many dwarves, was more popular with the dwarves.

After all, the cooperation between Luohan and Eternal Peak has lasted for a long time, and every time it is delivered to the door, the after-sales service is also very considerate.

Some time ago, the experimental helicopter sold to them at a low price caught the eyes of many dwarven engineers. After modification, it was immediately put into the battlefield, causing huge casualties to the orcs by throwing incendiary bombs.

Moreover, Rohan has also promised that it is expected to increase trade with the dwarves in the near future, and bring more weapons that are in the experimental stage to the dwarves to exterminate those damned ratmen.

What's more, their dwarves are not humans in the Warhammer 40k world. Most of the lost ancestral relics are technologies that have been eliminated. To put it bluntly, they have not kept up with the pace of the times.

Are they really going to give up such a cheap and reliable trading partner for those treacherous high elves?

All of a sudden, many clan representatives were making a fuss in the Eternal Palace. This kind of scene where the public was right and the woman was right made Erikson on the throne very headache.

Working with this group of dwarf representatives who are short-sighted and have no big picture, how can we govern this dwarf kingdom?

Seeing that the clan representatives seemed to be arguing until tomorrow, Erickson couldn't help but raised his thunder hammer from the side of the throne and smashed it on the table, and the burst of thunder instantly spread throughout the hall:

Rumbling--

"Enough is enough, we can't be blinded by our desire for money!"

Erickson looked at these arguing clan representatives angrily, and the thunder hammer in his hand continuously emitted bursts of dazzling blue lightning, reflecting on his slender white beard hanging around his waist.

Seeing Erickson, who seemed to be possessed by the dwarf god of war, Grimnir, the dwarf representatives who were still arguing stopped immediately, and then waited for the High King's lecture.

They knew that every word and deed of the High King would represent the future of the dwarves!
"In the face of the storm, the demons are in power, and our dwarves' enemies are not only ordinary people, but also full of all kinds of extraordinary creatures:

The Ratmen that seem to be endlessly killed in the tunnel; the ferocious orcs in the mountains and forests who covet our wealth; and even those Chaos Warriors with extraordinary strength, how long can our strong city walls last? "

Erickson didn't express his idea immediately, but silently put down the warhammer, looked at the dwarves present with a questioning tone and said:

"We must seek allies, either alone in this cruel world and die in a cave, or unite together to resist threats from afar!"

"But even if we are looking for allies, we don't necessarily have to cooperate with Rohan from the dark elves. The high elves are stronger and offer higher prices. Why can't it be them?"

A representative of the dwarves who supported cooperation with the high elves couldn't help but ask in confusion, and this is what most dwarves think.

In their view, although Rohan has shown enough potential and credibility, his power is nothing more than a mere fear lord after all, far less powerful than the support of the high elves.

Moreover, they had also heard of Drucci's cruel and evil reputation. Although the dwarf kingdom living in the mountains had never been threatened by the Black Ark pirates, they had also heard rumors about the other party.

A dwarf would not accept a teammate who might stab him in the back!

In contrast, although the high elves are not considered a good thing, they can be called the order camp anyway, and they can barely gain the trust of the dwarves.

Regarding the doubts of many dwarf representatives, Erickson just gave a cold snort. He did not rush to answer this question, but turned his head back to the throne and continued to ask:
"If one day, we dwarves are faced with an irresistible threat, and even the Eternal Peak is besieged by the enemy, how many high elves do you think will be willing to cross the sea and mountains to come to support?"

"Forehead……"

Hearing such a tricky question, several dwarf representatives who originally asked the question could not help but fell silent, and other representatives also secretly guessed the answer to this question in their hearts.

However, before they could react, Erickson interrupted their thinking impatiently, and then said the answer core and new question with a serious face:
"I can tell you very clearly that no elf army will be able to come for reinforcements, because even if the civil war between the elves ends, the pride in their hearts will never end!

Then let me ask you again, how many troops do you think the cunning and cruel dark elves sent to reinforce us? "

"Maybe an expeditionary force will be sent, and then landed in the old world through Haimen, and maybe they will be able to come to reinforce us successfully?"

A slightly naive dwarf representative couldn't help but express the answer in his heart. After all, in his opinion, Rohan's clansmen should be the same as Rohan, and they are very easy-to-get with elves, right?

However, Erickson shook his head again. He looked disappointedly at all the silent lover representatives present, and then told the cruel truth:

"I can tell you very clearly that not only will the dark elves not send reinforcements to reinforce us, but they will even take the opportunity to attack our sea gate and plunder our wealth!
Give up your illusions, elves have never been reliable allies, their pride and discrimination against dwarves is like a mountain, no matter how you move it, it will not help! "

As soon as this remark came out, all the dwarves present fell into an uproar. They were obviously shocked by the bloody reality that Erickson said, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Some of the more irritable dwarf representatives even jumped up from their seats, and finally they couldn't wait to walk to the Supreme Throne and asked:

"Then what's going on with Luohan, isn't he just an elf who gets along very happily with us, and you even became good friends with him!"

"That's right, we can see that he is sincerely looking for a covenant. Could it be that all this is just a play for him?"

"He saved our lives, he can't be a bad elf!"

……

Many dwarves who had been saved by Rohan in Prager looked at Erickson with dissatisfaction. They were staunch supporters of Rohan, and even the High King could not slander and insult their savior at will.

Seeing this situation, Erickson's seriousness revealed a sense of relief, and then he waved his hand and said with emotion:

"You should be thankful that there is still an elf as noble as Rohan in this world, who is even willing to travel thousands of miles to Kislev in order to resist chaos, and participate in a war that does not belong to him.

I don't know what the other elf lords are like, but I know that if one day the Eternal Peak encounters an unprecedented crisis, then Luohan will definitely come to help! "

"That's right, that fellow Luohan will definitely not just sit and watch us fight alone, and he has that wonderful space magic, so he won't be late!"

"It's a pity that we dwarves don't have the rune magic to teleport like that. If one day Rohan needs our help, we can also help him."

Due to the fact that Rohan has sold a lot of continuous supplies to the dwarves over the years, coupled with the reputation accumulated in the Battle of Prager, many dwarf representatives are also full of praise for Rohan.

If Rohan's system had a diplomatic function, then the dwarves' column would undoubtedly have turned into a green face.

And those representatives who originally opposed signing with Luohan silently exchanged glances, and after exchanging opinions with each other, they withdrew their objections in doubt.

Just kidding, even the High King is a supporter of Rohan now, if he still votes against it under such circumstances, it would be really a bit confusing.

Seeing that all the representatives seemed to have agreed with him, Erickson couldn't help showing a thick smile on his face, then got up and stretched his waist and said:
"In that case, everyone should go back to their rooms and have a good sleep, and we will tell Luohan the good news tomorrow!"

"Great!"

————The second day, Eternal Peak
To Rohan, the trade agreement signed between the dwarves and the dark elves was nothing more than the successful completion of the task, and by the way, he could say hello to his friends.

But for the two high-spirited diplomats who had the cheek to stay on Eternal Peak, this news was too horrifying!
When the dwarf guard asked the two high-spirited nobles to leave the Eternal Peak with a cold face, not to mention the always arrogant Keithles, even the relatively gentle Yana was shocked by the High King's decision.

Knowing the dwarven language, she naturally knew that Rohan was here to sign the trade treaty, but she never expected that they, who were also envoys of the trade treaty, would be expelled just one day later.

What does this mean?
This shows that Rohan managed to convince the dwarves to sign a trade agreement with Drucci in just one night, and drove them away by the way!

thump~
Looking at the gate of Eternal Peak that was slowly closing, Keithless, who was dissatisfied with Erickson's neglect, was full of resentment in his eyes, and at the same time cursed regardless of his image:
"Did that guy named Rohan cast some kind of charm magic on these short people? Could it be that he slept with the High King? How could he convince the dwarves to stand in line with Drucci so easily?"

Yana on the side didn't reply to Caseles' foul language, she just silently took out her magic longbow and a bag of arrows shining with strange light from her luggage, and then walked towards the foot of the mountain.

Seeing Yana's fully armed attire, Keithles hurriedly followed with his halberd, and finally asked with a ferocious expression:
"What should we do? Are we going to rob and kill that guy at the foot of the mountain?"

"Mist Chosen Lohan, this guy is a very troublesome dreadlord. Now the war is coming. If he is allowed to come to the battlefield of Ulthuan, the consequences will be disastrous."

While explaining her assassination, Yana began to dig out all kinds of strange magic props from the luggage, many of which were magic traps specially aimed at flying creatures.

Obviously, this is a long-planned assassination!

Seeing that Yana was willing to take the initiative to explain himself, Keithless, the 'dog licking', immediately started to prepare a trap for Yana, but it took him a while to react, and he couldn't help asking:
"Uh, why didn't you prepare to be responsible for the protective magic in melee combat? Could it be that you want me to be the main frontal attack?"

"No, because you are not included in my plan at all. Your task now is to return to Ulthuan immediately and report the news of the dwarves' betrayal to the Phoenix Court."
