I am a god in another world

Chapter 711 Hidden dangers in Colossus City

In this regard, it was Jiharin, whose race was known for its stubbornness, who broke the deadlock and directly shifted the topic to what they were good at. He said: "We have found the method of making the Heart of the Mountains. I will take this job. We will restore it according to the ancient method. The auxiliary materials for forging it will be provided entirely by our Iron Clan."

"I don't know what the patriarch wants?" There is no free lunch in the world. Since the other party has offered such generous conditions, they must have something to ask for.

"The right of first refusal for the regeneration ring." No one can refuse the regeneration ring, not even the legendary blacksmith Jiharin.

This ring with super regeneration and healing ability is a perfect match for their dwarf heavy armored warriors.

They will become the strongest stubborn stone on the battlefield, which cannot be kicked away or crushed, and will drag the enemy to death.

"The right of first refusal can be given, but I don't want money. I want equipment, a lot of excellent equipment." The other party also held what Gavin wanted in his hand.

In order to restore the country, the Iron Clan will definitely hoard a large amount of equipment, and the best kind, and will not easily take it out for sale.

Not to mention empty words, even if you pay, the other party will not sell.

Just like you can't buy the regeneration rings in your hand with money, because they are not only commodities, but also a kind of bargaining chip.

"Okay." Ji Halin nodded without hesitation, "How many regeneration rings do you bring out, I will bring out how many fine equipment, from fine products to +3 magic equipment, you can choose."

Gavin met a master who is richer than him today. The other party just communicated with his ring processing manufacturer and should have some idea of ​​how many regeneration rings he has.

As a result, the other party directly showed the posture of being able to eat all.

In other words, the other party has at least more than 20 million worth of fine equipment, and it may even be several times more. After all, the other party is a country first, and then a trading company, and must leave enough inventory for itself.

"Okay, let's decide on this matter. After I count the list of equipment needed, we will talk in detail." Gavin now has more troops available, and he must consider which troops to equip first.

Gavin gave a shot in advance: "My army has some special composition. Can you provide tailor-made services?"

"Yes, but it requires a delivery period."

"Of course."

"The forging of the Heart of the Mountains needs to be carried out in the Statue City. There is a sealed tunnel in the Underdark that you have not discovered yet. It can go straight down to the center of the earth. The last forging was carried out here. If you want to repair it 100%, you have to go back to the old way. I suspect that it needs to be combined with the special laws here."

Giharin's suggestion is more of a suggestion than a request.

The implication is obvious. Even if Gavin doesn't agree, the Heart of the Mountains can be repaired, but the defects in its ability are none of his business.

"Why is the Underdark tunnel sealed?" Gavin instantly grasped the key point of the matter.

In Faerun, seal is not a good word.

Whenever this word is used, it means trouble, a big trouble.

Because the person involved has no way to solve this trouble, he can only delay time in this way and leave it to future generations to solve.

This is the case with the ancient evil spirit realm that the Spring Bud Forest faces.

Can the trouble that can force a dwarf who built a thousand-meter-long dwarf statue city to only use the sealing method be small?

If it is small, Chief Jihalin would not have to bring it up solemnly.

"In the dark area below, there are the dwarves' old enemies, a group of fallen undead stone giants. They form the Council of Death Chiefs and are good at using necromancy. They originally lived in the Giant Run Mountains and were defeated by the dwarves here.

They opened up the path to this place and launched an attack from underground.

The dwarves paid a huge loss of life and finally sealed this passage.

But they themselves inevitably fell into decline and eventually died."

Giharin did not hide anything about the information he had read. "Although this is a history of thousands of years ago, those are giants who have been transformed into an undead state and cannot be measured by normal lifespan.

They are likely to still exist underground now. Once we lift the seal, there will be an undead army of giants waiting for us.

No one knows, do they simply hate the dwarves here? Or do they even hate the successors who live in this city."

It was them.

Gavin was not too surprised by this, because they had mastered this information when they were trying to find out about the trolls entrenched here.

I just didn't expect that those undead giants had pushed their troops directly from underground to this dwarf city.

Gavin not only knew that those undead stone giants still existed, but their power was still very strong, but they were not very active. Under normal circumstances, if you don't provoke them, they will not easily send out their undead army.

This news cannot be shared with Jiharin, after all, it is difficult to explain its source.

"Can the clan leader break this seal?" Gavin asked.

"It's not difficult to break it, but once it's broken, I won't be able to seal it again. Once those undead stone giants are still there, you can only think of another way to deal with them." Jiharin reminded solemnly.

"Patriarch, can you guess the general properties of the Heart of the Mountains after it is repaired?" Gavin must weigh whether this magical equipment is worth the risk.

"It's hard to say specifically, but there are two points that can be confirmed. One is the powerful regeneration and self-healing ability, and the other is the manipulation of soil and stone, especially things related to the mountains. I suspect that the reason why this city is built like this is largely related to this equipment. At that time, it is very likely that this ability will be affected. The specific level is also difficult to determine, but it is definitely not an ordinary magic item, at least a sub-artifact."

Giharin's answer was very vague. It can only be speculated from the characteristics of the Heart of Regeneration itself. The rest depends on the casting process.

Different casting processes will create different properties.

"Understood, Patriarch, you just prepare the materials to repair the Heart of the Mountains, and leave the rest to me." Gavin already has a plan.

If it is related to soil and stone, and architecture, it is worth taking a risk, after all, he is ready to move towards this aspect of the priesthood.

If they simply go down to forge, the difficulty may not be as high as imagined, after all, they took advantage of the unexpected situation and could sneak over secretly.

The trouble is that after the seal is lifted, the two sides may have subsequent conflicts.

The stone giants are not born underground races. What if they want to live on the ground again?

However, there is another way, which is not to lift the seal of the Colossus City, but to go around from other directions.

Since the undead stone giants can attack here, there must be a dark region leading here.

But in this way, the variables of the forging team are too great. When traveling through the dark region, no one knows what they will encounter in the next second?

Here, ghosts are not scary.

Intelligent life such as drow elves and mind flayers are the most terrifying. Once they fall into their hands, they will be worse than death.

Gavin is not interested in the dark region, even more than the shadow plane.

In the shadow plane, if you encounter an enemy that you cannot fight, you can at least run away.

In the Underdark, there is nowhere to run even if you want to run. If you are not careful, you will run into a trap. This is simply a paradise of traps, natural, unnatural, magical, biological... There is nothing that is not here, only what you can't think of.

In short, Gavin's memories of the Underdark are all terrible. The rare good times are when he harvested treasures from here.

It's just that the deal that seemed very cost-effective in the previous life doesn't seem to be very cost-effective in this life.

Gavin left before the end of the Dragon Ascension Ceremony in Colossus City. Since this is the first time for the two sides to work together, there are big gaps on both sides.

The dog-headed people on the Colossus City side lack the nourishment of the life force of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree.

The dog-headed people on the Dragon Oak Mother Tree side lack other elements in their bodies, and their strength is uneven, and they need to focus on replenishment.

Even the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, which seems to be just paying, is reaping the benefits.

The soul marks of these more than 40,000 dog-headed people are to be engraved on the Dragon Oak Dream. Although they are very weak and not as good as real souls, their numbers are enough to harvest a little dream divinity and thousands of dream powers.

The elements that the dog-headed people cannot digest in the end will not be wasted through the dragon-seeking ceremony. In the end, they will be swallowed by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree and used as their own nutrients.

In short, this dragon-seeking ceremony lasted unexpectedly long, more than twelve hours.

The harvest was also huge.

On the Dragon Oak Mother Tree side, except for those underage dog-headed people, all adult dog-headed people have entered the dragon vein, and the proportion of dragon blood and dragon transformation is also amazing, basically reaching one-tenth of the previous one.

That is, one out of ten dragon vein dog-headed people has dragon blood, and one out of ten dragon blood has dragon transformation.

Although the Colossus City is not so extreme, the number of dragon vein kobolds has exceeded 5,000, with more than 2,000 dragon bloods and 500 dragonized ones. After all, there are a lot of strong kobolds gathered here from the original tribe.

Unlike the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, those who stay there to look after the house and breed are all the remaining service personnel, and the original elites have been transferred away.

With the newly opened spell-like abilities, they are no longer substitutes, and will be added to the front line one after another, replacing those who need to be adjusted or are not adapted. This is a kind of internal rotation system.

Staying in the Dragon Oak Mother Tree seems to be a blessing, but in fact, it is exchanged for rapid growth.

Many kobolds who follow Gavin to do infrastructure all over the world may not have their bloodline power opened, but most of them have their professional levels opened, and they are not low.

When they have time, they will have more advantages when they turn around to accept Shanoba's dragon-dog mutual assistance, and some things will come naturally.

Gavin has arranged for Shanoba to go to Black Well Town and Three Rivers, places that the Dragon Oak Mother Tree cannot reach for the time being, to hold a special show for those kobolds.

Every ten days, they go to each place. With the help of teleportation, it is not a big deal.

Shanoba was so happy about this task that she couldn't wait to refuse it.

After sending Jihalin back to the Kingdom of Cormier, Gavin sent the remaining three small wilderness kobolds to the Three Rivers and the City of Faith respectively.

Shanoba, a fake dragonborn, succeeded, not to mention these real half-black dragon lizardmen in the Thun Swamp. The whole process was very easy.

And when Gavin's prestige here was at its peak, all the half-black dragon lizardmen cooperated obediently, and no one dared to say a word.

The amount of dragon breath that a half-black dragon lizardman can produce is not much. It is the same as their physical adjustment value, usually four or five, but it cannot withstand the large number of half-black dragon lizardmen.

Little things add up, and the number of dragon breath vibration bombs here is staggering, as many as two hundred a day.

The flaw is that, like Shanobah, their dragon's breath is relatively weak, and the power of the flutter bombs they produce ranges from 4D8 to 8D8, which is not even comparable to the dragon flutter bombs produced by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree.

However, their advantage is that, in addition to dragon breath, the alchemical materials they need to use are one-tenth of those of normal flutter bombs, which means that the cost of making them is cheaper - Gavin's price for these half-black dragon lizardmen is also one per ten Not only were they not unhappy about the gold coins, but they were overjoyed. After all, they had never made such easy money since they were born.

Their low price makes them more advantageous for civilian use.

Coming to an agreement with the Lizard Queen Kurgor was a no-brainer.

The once arrogant Black Dragon Queen has been driven half crazy by her greedy appetite. When she was summoned, the first thing she did was to take a few mouthfuls of dirt. Now she is no longer picky about what she eats, as long as it is food.

When Gavin told him to exchange food for dragon breath, he nodded in agreement without hesitation.

Her food was also worth ten gold coins in exchange for a dragon's breath. Although it was cheap, it was better than having nothing at all.

Her dragon breath is more interesting.

There are two kinds of flutter bombs produced by her. One is the black dragon's strong acid dragon breath flutter bomb, with a lethality of 19D8, and the other is the negative energy dragon's breath flutter bomb produced by the shadow dragon state. This kind of dragon The breath will produce an energy-draining effect. Creatures within the explosion range must make a reflex evasion check. Once it fails, it will gain five negative levels. Even if it succeeds, it will gain half of it.

Once the negative level of a creature is lower than zero, death on the spot will be minor, and it may be infused with negative energy, or transformed into a zombie or a wraith.

This kind of negative energy dragon's breath flutter bomb is simply an artifact to clean up the battlefield. Cannon fodder like goblins can kill a large number of cannon fodders like goblins. It is rare to see goblins with more than five life dice.

Even in the army of conquerors, those with more than five hit dice are considered elite, the backbone of the entire army.

The Lizard Queen can produce up to twenty-one dragon breath flutter bombs every day, mainly producing negative energy dragon breath flutter bombs.

Gavin didn't plan to feed the Lizard Queen anything good. This guy's eating was purely an addiction, not a physical necessity. He ate everything anyway, and all kinds of rotten food and urban garbage were disposed of for her.

It's a pity that in an era of scarcity, there was very little domestic waste. Most of it was biological excrement, which could be used for fattening, but she couldn't catch it. Giving her some extra catch occasionally was the greatest kindness Gavin could give her. .

After handling this matter, all the intuitive benefits brought about by the upgrade of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree have just been dealt with. As for the invisible benefits, it will take time to slowly dig out.

All in all, the completion of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree upgrade will have an impact on Gavin's subsequent development, and even on top of Ms. Strategy's ascension to God, many plans must be adjusted on a large scale.

Gavin then secretly returned to the Kingdom of Cormyr, and he needed to clean up things here.

The first one on the list is naturally Aroshi, the country of tree spirits who is on an envoy to the King's Forest.

Although he represents the Kingdom of Cormyr, his mission is essentially a secret mission - otherwise, this mission would not be his.

King Yasan's intention is obvious, that is, to avoid internal conflicts in the Kingdom of Cormyr in the face of the catastrophic invasion of Tukan nomads.

Gavin, who has a close relationship with the natural races, is responsible for appeasing these natural spirits and keeping them in the King's Forest honestly, just like before.

Just as Gavin was unwilling to fight against the nature gods, the Kingdom of Cormyr was also unwilling to fight against these nature spirits.

Throughout the entire history of Faerûn, there were not many benefits from going to war with them, but they only made people angry all over their bodies. Later development was hindered at every turn, and there were as many natural disasters as there were.

Whichever country can withstand this kind of struggle will become a thing of the past before long.

"Just here, let me down." Gavin casually pointed to a clearing in the forest.

"This is the land of tree spirits, Aroshi?" Ban Yueju looked left and right in confusion. She was also an out-and-out natural spirit and was very sensitive to the natural atmosphere. No matter how you looked here, it was just an ordinary place. The open forest clearing does not look like a gathering place for a large number of tree spirits.

"If Aroshi had been found so easily, they wouldn't have been hiding in the King's Forest for thousands of years, only to be exposed now. During a brief exchange with their queen, she knew the name of Dragon Oak Dreamland. I have reason to suspect, This kingdom of tree spirits is not simply a kingdom on the material plane, but an inter-dimensional kingdom, with parts of the material plane and the fairy wilderness."

Gavin expressed his speculation and said, "So, it is very troublesome for us to find them. The most correct choice is to pass on the news of my arrival and let them come to me."

"How to deliver the message?" Ban Yueju seemed to understand.

"Being integrated into nature, integrated into the forest, the message will naturally be transmitted. Every plant and tree here is their eyes and ears, it just takes time." Gavin replied with a smile, "Just take this opportunity to feel the new ability I just gained. Put this away for me."

While speaking, he had already taken off the Howard convenience bag on his back and threw it to Ban Yueju.

Although he already has a portable dimensional bag, he never leaves this piece of space equipment.

Taking things out of the portable dimensional bag is somewhat troublesome and wastes time during the battle.

He puts some instant replacement equipment and consumables in convenient bags for easy access at any time.

The two space equipment cannot accommodate each other. Once the Howard convenience bag is stuffed into the portable dimensional bag, it will easily cause a dimensional explosion, blowing all his treasures into all major dimensions.

He quickly took off the bits and pieces of equipment on his body, stuffed them all into a portable dimensional bag, and then threw it to the Half-Moon Horse. Only the battle armor and the dragon oak staff were left on his body.

"I haven't felt this relaxed for a long time." Gavin moved his muscles involuntarily, feeling that his speed had increased to a higher level.

After all, the equipment on my body is so messy that it must weigh 20 to 30 kilograms.
