Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1180 Dwarf Delegation

As the greenskin army retreated for the second time, on the side of the Great Zhou, Zhou Xu's reply was officially delivered to Shi Lei at the front line by the Giant Eagle Knight.

After reading the content, Shi Lei communicated with Bale without any delay.

The Great Zhou accepted their proposal and was willing to let them send envoys to the capital for communication. This made Bale feel relieved. At least things were going smoothly.

The next key point is who should be sent by Copperforge as an envoy.

This person must have a certain status and, considering the purpose of this trip, must have sufficient eloquence and brains.

In fact, both he and the eldest prince Baron met this requirement, but it was obvious that neither of them could leave.

In this way, there is only one suitable candidate left for this trip.

"Go and get Woking."

Bale had obviously discussed this matter with his elder brother Otto a long time ago, and now he can make the decision directly.

After receiving the news, Woking quickly came to Bale.

Bale didn't waste any time and told Woking about this matter as quickly as possible.

Woking was present when this matter was discussed, and he already had an idea about it.

Not counting the Plains Fortress, he has never traveled far in his life.

Now, when he heard that he was going to the capital of the Great Zhou as a representative of Tonglu Fort, there was no doubt that he showed some excitement on his face, just like an elementary school student going out for a picnic.

Woking has been going to the Great Zhou camp quite often during this period. During this time, everyone inevitably talked about the situation in the Great Zhou. There were many new and interesting things there that made Woking yearn for it.

At this moment, Woking's thoughts were almost written directly on his face, leaving Bale speechless.

"You should learn to control your expression. You can't be like this when you negotiate with Da Zhou."

Hearing this, Woking's face immediately turned stern.

"Uncle Barley, do you think this is okay?"

Bale glanced at his face and then nodded.

"is acceptable."

As an elder who has watched Woking grow up since he was a child, Bale actually knows that Woking is capable and can handle many things in an orderly manner.

His only shortcoming is that he tends to get scared when he sees his older brother Baron.

That’s right, Bale saw all of this and knew about it. This was actually closely related to Baron’s deliberate efforts to expand his influence.

But what can he do?

Woking is his nephew, and so is Baron. How do you want him, as an uncle, to handle this kind of thing?

Not to mention that Baron is the first in line to the throne, and his abilities are recognized by all the tribesmen, so it is perfectly legitimate for him to do so.

Sighing secretly in his heart, Bale pulled Woking aside to give him some instructions, and even simulated the content of the conversation at that time, before letting him go.

Time was precious, and Copperforge did not waste any time. They quickly sent Woking with a small team as a delegation to the capital of the Great Zhou for negotiations.

Moving from Copperforge to the New South District, the delegation led by Woking could clearly feel the change in climate.

Compared with the New North District and Tonglubao, the climate in the New South District is undoubtedly warmer.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that winter is coming to an end and the temperature is gradually rising.

After getting off the ship at Blackmoon Harbor, the dwarves, including Vol'jin, couldn't help but look back at the ship they had taken. On the rock wall, a large area was mainly land, and the dwarves, including Vol'jin, had never seen a large lake, let alone a ship of this ridiculous size.

In this era, for inland forces with no sea or even large lakes around them, their impression of ships is basically concentrated on rafts or small boats, or they have no impression at all.

Under such circumstances, it was difficult for them not to be surprised by the large ships of the Great Zhou.

At the same time, it was difficult for them to imagine how such a huge ship could travel on the water. Even though they had been on the ship all the way, this question still remained unanswered.

Just as they were struggling with this, a long "Woo--" sound suddenly came from the distance, which scared them and naturally attracted their attention.

The dwarves, including Woking, almost subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.

The next second, accompanied by billowing smoke, a huge steel monster broke into their sight!

The intense visual impact made them stunned for a moment. Woking's mouth opened unconsciously, but he couldn't utter a word. His eyes were wide open and his brain completely lost the ability to think.

It was not until the huge steel monster slowly slowed down and drove onto the platform, with part of its body out of his sight, that he finally came to his senses and turned to look at the figure beside him who had been smiling the whole time.

The other party called himself Comrade Xiao Wang, a member of the Great Zhou Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After they entered the Plain Fortress, the subsequent reception task fell on Comrade Xiao Wang.

"Comrade Xiao Wang, what is that?"

At this time, Woking's voice was difficult, and he even stuttered for a moment because he was too nervous.

"That's a train, a form of transportation within our Great Zhou, similar to the big ship and carriage we took before."

When Woking heard the word "almost", he felt his eyes go dark and he almost screamed out loud.

Almost? How almost? ! !

Not to mention the carriage, let's just talk about the big ship. Although he was surprised, he could understand why he regarded it as a super-enlarged version of the wooden boat.

But the thing called "train" in the distance was completely beyond his understanding!

The moment it rushed into his field of vision accompanied by billowing smoke, Woking felt that his worldview was completely crushed by the 'crack' sound.

"Can I get a closer look?"

"Of course we can, but we're quite far from the train platform. The train won't stop here for too long. By the time we get there, the train will probably have left."

They had no intention of concealing the existence of the steam locomotive, which in itself was a reflection of the national strength of their Great Zhou, so Xiao Wang said whatever he thought.

“I still want to go over and take a look.”

"Of course, let's go."

Later it was proved that Xiao Wang was not lying. They had just walked halfway when the whistle of the train sounded before it started.

Before they could get close enough, the steam train sped away with thick smoke billowing.

As the distance got closer, Woking felt that the scene became even more shocking. Just by hearing the sound, his heart began to beat wildly uncontrollably.

But after jumping around wildly, Woking couldn't help falling into silence again.

Ever since he passed through the Plain Fortress, the impact that Da Zhou had brought to him had never stopped, and it had also constantly refreshed his cognition.

Originally thought of as a 'little brother' with not that much strength, as he went deeper into the territory of the Great Zhou, he grew step by step into a terrifying behemoth!

I thought I had seen the other person's whole face, but I never thought that it was just one of his toes...

What could be more outrageous than this?
