Chapter 47 Xuefeng Dwarf
Looking at the giant beast that was beaten by everyone, Qin Lun lowered his bow with some excitement and sighed quietly, it seemed that he would not need to take action again.
Although this giant earthen beast does not have elemental talent, its speed and amazing defense are actually no less than a legendary creature. It is just that it has lived in the Iron Star Castle for many years and has insufficient cunning and insidious estimates of intelligent creatures, which has put itself in a desperate situation.
In the previous treasure house, stone pillars and stone beams were densely packed. At its speed, it could move forward and retreat freely whether it was attacking or retreating. However, when it arrived at the flat ground of this square, the surrounding stone houses were only conducive to hiding small creatures, which was a disguised obstacle to it. In addition, when it first left the passage, it was ambushed by everyone and lost its first move, and it was doomed to fail.
"Spiral Penetration Arrow!" Qin Lun glanced at the prompt on the death list and felt a little happy. He just obtained a new skill with level B-level using D-level spiral shooting technique combined with C-level penetration arrows.
After a while, the scarred giant beast lies dyingly less than ten meters away from the entrance of the passage. Most of its silver scales were broken and covered with green blood. In the only one eye left, the pale eye mask appeared dead gray and was slowly moving towards the end of life.
"Oh!" Ilistin beside him stirred his fingers, wrinkled his face and sighed, making Qin Lun feel speechless.
The elf druid didn't feel sorry for this giant beast. She was not as merciful to this dark-facing creature as the jungle creature. She was just lamenting that she had not been able to participate in the battle.
"Philal, the arrow you just now is so beautiful!" Milleras walked from a distance with a few elves rangers. Now the giant beast of the Earthlings was surrounded by the helpless melee professions just now, so they did not participate in the siege.
"I can't shoot that arrow without you pushing the Earth Knot into a dead corner." Qin Lun shook his head with a smile.
"Feral, have you awakened the ancient heritage?" Milleras leaned against Qin Lun and asked mysteriously.
"Well, yes, the hunter's inheritance!" Qin Lun nodded and asked in surprise, "Are you not awakened yet?"
"Not every descendant of the royal family can awaken." Milleras said with a wry smile, "I am a viviparous elf, and there is no ancient heritage at all."
"The awakened elves are treasures of the major elves, and they are generally not allowed to perform too dangerous tasks." Milleras looked at Qin Lun meaningfully, "It seems that King Tyne Quelas is very determined..."
Qin Lun smiled unquestionably, looked at the battlefield in the distance, and suddenly asked in surprise, "Hey, what are those dwarves doing?"
"They want to cut open the belly of the celestial beast. Some of their companions died in the mouth of the giant beast. They should not be digested yet and want to dig it out and buried it." Stark walked from a distance, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
The acting leader of the fortress had a smile on his face. After the giant beast of the ground beast was severely injured, he was finally able to join the battle and finally let out a sigh of anger.
"What are the origins of those dwarves?" Qin Lun asked with concern.
"Robin is talking to them, and I will come over to see the two princes later." Stark squeezed his eyes at Qin Lun. Now he felt the benefits of Qin Lun not exposing his apostle identity. If he was disappointed to receive the dwarf plot and refused to share it with the fortress team, they could also obtain it through Qin Lun.
Milleras and Qin Lun were waiting quietly in place, and Robin and others soon returned. Most of the apostles were smiling. Although the giant beasts of the earthlings were difficult to deal with, they also produced a lot of precious equipment and materials, and were so large that they were enough to allocate them to the two apostles teams.
Now there are only a few dwarves left beside the remains of the giant beast. They dug out the broken bodies of their companions from the remains and buried them directly in the collapsed ruins nearby. There will be no people here all year round, so it is suitable for a tomb.
The dwarves worshipped their companions in an ancient ceremony and stood up to walk towards the crowd. An old dwarf in the team came out and performed a grand ceremony to the two elves princes.
"Thank you for your help. I am the dwarf Loyle, who is the third son of King Dustin Lorraine..." The old dwarf introduced several companions to everyone one by one. After a fierce battle, they only had six companions left.
"Dwarf Prince?" Qin Lun raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Milleras beside him.
"No, I am not a prince, but the third son of King Dustin!" The elf's handsomeness made the young Lorraine feel a little shy, and her handsome face turned slightly red.
"Isn't the king's son the prince?" Qin Lun felt a little strange, but he was very clever and did not ask the bottom line and handed over the initiative in the conversation to Millas.
"Did you also mistakenly enter the Iron Star Castle?" Milleras smiled and narrowed his eyes. His expression and temperament were eighty-slightly similar to Qin Lun's hypocritical smile.
In fact, Milleras is not a pure elf prince. Thinking about the fact that on the edge of the Anker Forest, this kid planned to deceive the Elf of Jondale, but Qin Lun saw through it.
"No, we..." Lorraine looked at the old dwarf with some embarrassment.
Loyle sighed. The Dwarf King asked him to take Lorraine out this time to train the youngest son, but it seems not an easy job now.
The social structures of humans, dwarves, and elves all have some similarities. In fact, some social systems of human civilization that rose at the latest were learned from elves.
However, the three are also different in some aspects. Humans have the strongest learning ability, but their lifespan is the shortest, and they value blood ties more. Generally, the throne changes frequently. The lifespan of elves and dwarves is much longer than that of humans, especially elves are divided into viviparous and world tree fruit elves. The concept of blood ties is the thinnest, and the replacement of thrones seems much more cautious.
The throne of human beings is hereditary. Even if the stupid king comes to power, the people will be miserable. Anyway, they will be replaced within a few decades and their livelihood will be restored. The destructive power is not very strong. However, elves and dwarves are different. Their own fertility is not as good as humans and their lifespan is long. If the two are mediocre kings, the entire race may become extinct.
Therefore, elves and dwarves belong to the royal system, rather than to be hereditary by blood. If the ruling elves and dwarves royals decline for some reason, the clan would even re-elect the royal family. Just like the original elves of the Jondal, the moon elves royal family declined, so they took the initiative to hand over the throne to the Green Elf clan.
However, the royal system of dwarves and elves is different. The types of elves are distinguished by inheritance. The world of Torrell is the four major tribes of sun elves, moon elves, dark elves and green elves, and at most a wild elves. The dwarves do not have elves world trees, and there is no ancient inheritance, so their types are distinguished by region, skin color, body shape, and even beards.
This divides many ethnic groups, but the general life span of dwarves is three to four hundred years, and they are a bit conservative and stubborn, and attach great importance to tradition. Therefore, their royal family is generally composed of several ethnic groups.
This is why Lorraine belonged to King Dustin's third son, but could not call herself a prince. If he wanted to get the title of prince among many descendants of the royal family, he had to pass an important trial, such as this time's outing mission.
The task they shoulder is very important and could not be said to outsiders. However, Loyle thought about it again. Apart from a companion who went down the mountain to ask for help, there were only six people left in their team, and it seemed that it didn't matter whether they said it or not. Anyway, if they wanted to complete the task, they had to get foreign aid.
Judging from the elves and humans in front of them, they seem to be mercenaries, and they should be the best candidates for employment. Thinking of this, Loyle finally made a decision and asked Milleras: "People, are you mercenaries?"
"You want to hire us?" Milleras keenly noticed the meaning of the old dwarf's words.
"Yes, we are responsible for the important tasks of King Dustin. We cannot explain the details to outsiders. However, we are only left with these few people, and we may not be able to complete them independently. We will not be able to go back to ask for help. We can only hire mercenaries on the mainland on the spot."
Loyle nodded cautiously, "You look like mercenaries and have saved us again, it should be the best choice now. If you accept employment, I can tell you the purpose of this trip."
"Sadly, in fact, we have undertaken a very important task and can no longer help you." Milleras shook his head firmly.
Just kidding, as an envoy of the Japanese elves, he shoulders a major mission, and behind it is the entire Komansoji elves, and it is impossible for these Dwarfs to be exposed to these Dwarfs' Day.
The dwarves' faces were a little awkward, and the scene was in a stalemate. Kelly, Robin and others were also helpless. They didn't mind the plot tasks of multiple dwarves and gave up if they couldn't do them. They just had to nod Millaras first, otherwise they would no longer be able to accept the dwarves' employment based on their position.
"Millerlas, maybe we can listen first, maybe they can help our mission too!" During the silence, Qin Lun suddenly inserted and smiled at the old dwarf, "Let's do this, we can reveal some less important mission details to each other first. If we can help each other, then let's discuss it."
"But, can you tell me first, where are the dwarf tribes you belong to?" Qin Lun asked with a smile.
"We are the Snow Peak Castle dwarves in the Snow Flake Mountains!" Loyle hesitated, but Lorraine beside him answered first.
Milleras's eyes lit up. He had already wanted to say something to stop Qin Lun, but he closed his mouth again.
Because he suddenly thought that this time he went on an ancient mission to visit various human regimes and elves on the continent, the purpose was not only to re-establish the leadership of the future Sun King Court and the Sun Elf, but also to get the major powers of the mainland to agree to the transit of the Komanso elves.
He needed to visit major powers and elves one by one according to the ancient road, but the Japanese elves migration team will no longer be needed in the future.
The Snowflake Mountains just cross the Kingdom of Sespitz and the Giant Plain. Originally, this mountain range was rarely visited, and there were ogres and orc tribes along the way, which could not be used as a reference for migration paths.
However, if the Sun Elves could get the help of the Snow Peak Castle dwarves, the migration team seemed to have a safer migration path. They would not even have to go through the two powerful countries of Kalinshan and Taesel in the southern part of the mainland, and they could directly enter the Am Kingdom in the north, and the migration journey was thousands of kilometers short.
