Chapter 126 The Human World
As soon as you hear it, you will know that the High King is an extremely noble title among the dwarves. The dwarves have many princes, and they can have countless living ancestors, but there will only be one High King for a period of time, and they truly have authority.

Haiji, one of the candidates, is not the most powerful among them. Although Dragon's Blood Pass is an important border town, it is far from being the most powerful and wealthy dwarf fortress, but it is on the high king's candidate list. It represents a kind of recognition, which means that his strength and power are far superior to ordinary dwarf princes, and at least he is also a pivotal force in the region.

In order to compete for the throne of the Supreme King, but also to enhance their own strength and influence, each candidate can be said to have exhausted their methods.

Some people are busy building territories, some are trying their best to clear the entries in the Book of Hate one by one, some are making great efforts to research new technologies, and some are trying to win the support of rune blacksmiths and dwarf guilds.
It can be said that all the paths that can be thought of are being practiced, but even among the dwarven princes, Haiji is also a very unique one. He focuses on a path that no lord has ever chosen before - diplomacy , Contact any intelligent race that can cooperate, and use their power to realize the power of the dwarves.

It is undeniable that this is also a method. Even the current diplomatic environment of the dwarves is too bad. If he can really reverse this fundamentally, then maybe the position of the High King is really interesting.

Although the guild has seized a lot of wealth from the foreigners by virtue of the export of metal products and ores, and a large number of foreigners have traded with the dwarves, for very complicated reasons, it is difficult for them to make firm allies. One of the loneliest intelligent races on earth.

From this point of view, Haiji's operation is extremely critical. Participating in the war against the demons can greatly ease the relationship between the dwarves and the foreign race. Can improve a lot.

Especially the relationship with the elves, as long as it works properly, there is still hope for mutual benefit, not to mention the elimination of hatred.

After receiving Bourne's confirmation, Tang Zhao felt relieved. Watching Bourne call a few dwarf blacksmiths, and after repeatedly instructing them, he left with the old dwarves. Next, he had to decide the course of action for the entire settlement. Neither he nor the dwarf was in charge.
-
Elena, the leader of the Poplar Rangers, gave an impassioned speech at the meeting, constantly emphasizing the threat of those dark creatures and demons in the south, implying that she hoped that the entire settlement would act on it and send as many people as possible to assist the Brown Oak Rangers The elves of the regiment, help them contain the demon as soon as possible, so as not to make a big mistake later.

She is in charge of several patrol teams, and she does have a say on this issue. The attitude of the other elves towards Elena is also mainly supportive. Once the demons succeed in gaining a foothold in the main world, they will mainly be threatened to get rid of Tang Zhao. Their settlement is the rear of the elves, and the elves in the entire forest will be in a state of being attacked from both sides. The trade with the dwarves will also be cut off, and they will not be able to obtain weapons in large quantities.

Without the metallurgical support of the dwarves, it is extremely difficult for them to win the war against the demons and hobgoblins, and what awaits them is likely to be a crisis of national extinction.

However, except for the elves, other races are more inclined to a more conservative plan: the devil's affairs must be dealt with, but with their strength alone, the result of a rash attack can only be annihilation of the entire army, reinforcements are being organized, they want to wait When the reinforcements arrived, they made plans, and this kind of voice occupied the majority.

In fact, the dwarves are not very worried about the invasion of demons, because the first fortress that the demons will face is the Dragon's Blood Pass. , otherwise it would be hitting the iron plate headfirst.

Of course the demon will be killed, but under the premise that the interests will not be seriously damaged, the dwarves will of course adopt a conservative strategy and seek safety.

The goblins also rarely supported the dwarves. Lalique was in charge of reconnaissance and sentry. They were well aware of the strength comparison between the two sides. Let alone demons, even if there were only those dark creatures, the patrol team would be difficult to deal with, and they would not be able to launch an attack at all.

The kobolds who accounted for the majority did not speak, but looked at Tang Zhao with inquiring and ingratiating eyes. They always looked forward to Tang Zhao's horse, and they followed Tang Zhao to support Tang Zhao's side.

In fact, Tang Zhao has always wondered why the kobolds would support him so firmly. Let's just think that the kobolds instinctively worship and please the powerful creatures with similar looks.

In this case, after consideration, Tang Zhao chose to negotiate in the middle. In fact, he subjectively agrees with the elves' idea of ​​a quick battle, because things about demons are typical of things that change after a while, and it is uncertain what method they will use. It would be great if a demon prince was brought in to solve it as soon as possible.

But objectively speaking, their strength is really not enough, so they have to settle for the next best thing.

Allow the Poplar Rangers to go to the south, and at the same time step up patrols to guard against possible dark creatures that may appear across the border.

Three teams of more than [-] kobolds will be transferred to the south. They will be responsible for building a temporary camp. On the one hand, it will be convenient for them to defend, and on the other hand, it will pave the way for the coming reinforcements.

Lorraine, who came to study the demon scroll, also participated in the meeting. After negotiation, he led the team to conduct a tentative attack on the dark creatures in the south while Tang Zhao was recuperating.

It's still the same - Lorraine is acting as a facade, and then he will be responsible for communicating with those intelligent races. After all, unicorns are a more popular species than large lizards. He also has relevant experience and is indeed more used to joining the coalition to fight against the enemy. , Tang Zhao himself is very unaccustomed to such things as coalition forces, they argue with each other, worry too much, and generally have low efficiency.

Most of the time, he would rather do it alone, which is actually what he did.

He is seriously injured now, and a short period of rest will not allow him to fully recover. It is very unwise to fight against a powerful enemy with his injuries, so Tang Zhao decided to change direction and focus on the affairs of the human world.

From the mouth of the human spellcaster, I learned that there are many demon scrolls in the human world, circulating secretly in the underground black market in Luford. Entering Luford, to obtain more supplies from the human world, it is better to take this opportunity to intervene by using the demon scroll as an opportunity. This is the method that will least arouse human suspicion.
