Chapter 394: Atas

Caesar waited at the Fortress of Sighs.
The Sigh Fortress has been established for less than ten years, but it has become one of the most important fortresses on the border of the Black Wing Empire and the largest war fortress in the Empire. Military main point of marching.
With the growing tension with Southern Eladia, the military strength in the fortress has been continuously strengthened. Today, this rough-looking fortress has gathered 100,000 troops, including 80,000 well-equipped human standing troops. And more than 20,000 clan monsters.
At the same time, if a war breaks out, the seven clans responsible for patrolling the southern border area can respond quickly and enter the fortress to provide support at the first time. At that time, this place will gather more than half of the military power of the Black Wing Empire. .
It is not only a fortress, but also a gate. When the gates were opened, the Black Wing Empire's army could flow down the Mountain of Sighs, allowing sharp blades and fangs to run through any city in Elladia.
But Caesar is not a lunatic who has lost his mind. Although he has been upset recently by the Sunburst Empire, this little anger is not enough to justify him and his opponent.
The war did not start. This time when he arrived at the Fortress of Sighs, the Black Dragon Emperor had another reason besides daily inspection of the territory and inspection of the border defense: waiting for someone.
Waiting for Prince Atlas Ambitions, and the Greycastle Dwarfs he led.
Although most of the Greycastle dwarfs are ignorant of the world, fascinated by the forging process and the development of high-tech materials, their intelligence in other aspects is not much lower than that of humans. As a leader, Atas is even less likely to know nothing. idiot.
How many puppets' peepers a long-lost dwarven tribe can attract? Atas is very clear, not to mention that he still holds the excellent halberds in the hands of the handed down halberds and other people of the clan. Even if they are cautious and hide in disguise, they want to reach the north smoothly all the way, without encountering danger on the way. Imaginary dream.
So early on when he decided to go to the North, he wrote a letter to the Emperor Black Dragon in the name of the ambitious clan king, recalling the former Northern Empire and the Kingdom of Stuart (the dwarves against the gray castle). (Self-proclaimed), affirmed the inseparable trade and solid and reliable ally relations between the two sides, and then described in detail the course of the Three Castles battle and the current crisis and dilemma faced by the ambitious clans; Finally, Atas sincerely requested the Black Dragon Emperor's help.
The northern emperor quickly wrote back, calling Atas a "friend" and claiming that the empire would immediately begin a protection plan for the Greycastle dwarves to ensure that they finally arrived safely in the north.
However, in the south, the Black Wing Empire could hardly send troops to protect the Greycastle dwarves, and could only give the Greycastle dwarves economic, intelligence, and other support in other ways. For this reason, Caesar even paid a price, revealing that Fewer black shirts and deformed monsters that have disguised and completed penetration.
This situation quickly improved after Atas and his clan reached the area north of central China. Within the radiation range of the influence of the Blackwing Empire, the attitude of the kingdom and clan encountered by the Greycastle dwarves had reached 180 degrees. Big turn, so they spent less than a third of the entire first half of their journey,
Finally, after a four-month trek, the Greycastle dwarfs finally came to the sighing fortress at the border of the Blackwing Empire and stood in front of the black dragon emperor Caesar Targaryen.
Relying on the world-class forging alone, the Greycastle dwarves can get Caesar's attention, but there is another reason for Caesar's effort to assist them-in a sense, this is also a In a political performance, he showed the countries in the south that the Black Wing Empire values ​​its trading partners and allies and is willing to be their backing and retreat.
As for whether the Black Wing Empire and the Grey Castle Kingdom were allied at first, as long as they both recognize each other, it is.
"Atas ambition, on behalf of the Kingdom of Stuart and the ambition clan, came to pay tribute to you, Your Majesty the King of Dragons and Northern Emperor Targrien. Your friendship is memorable."
Atas, the legendary foundry master, was standing in front of Caesar and bowing and saluting, just like the orc's fist ritual. The dwarves did not bow to worship, they bowed to show respect.
"Welcome, loyal dwarf."
It is difficult for Caesar, who maintains the body, to make friendly expressions, but the sound sounds mild.
The black dragon looked at the dwarven king who had not been masked. Although the ruler of the Stuart kingdom was only half the height of a human, it did not make people feel small. He had a strong body like a soldier, and his muscles were wrapped in inscriptions. The mysterious texture of the armor, without a helmet, one-handed holding a two-meter-long dark golden trident, black wavy hair curled down.
The two sides remained silent for a while, and Atas decided to take the initiative to speak. Although the language was not a dwarf's strong point, it took him a long time to figure out the opening statement, but this involved the continuation of the clan and he had to open his mouth. "Emperor Black Dragon, the fragile dwarf coalition has died out in the flames of war, and the ambitious clan has been displaced by the destruction of their homeland. Here, on behalf of my only remaining people, I sincerely ask for your asylum."
"The North is not a paradise. Our enemies are equally jealous." Caesar bowed her head and asked, "What do you want, what do you want?"
"We hope that you can give us a piece of land you don't need and give the dwarves equal right to life and dignity, just like you do to the elves." Atas bowed his head and said, "You will win the honor and the respect and ambition of all dwarves for this. The clan will always remember your first and last names. "
Caesar was dissatisfied with the words of Prince Atas, which was not the result he wanted to hear.
When receiving the message from the Greycastle Dwarf, Caesar thought that the other party wanted to move north to join the Black Wing Empire, so he spared no effort to help, but in fact it was not the case at all. The dwarves just wanted to be in the north. Obtain a piece of land and rebuild your home under the protection of the Blackwing Empire.
They didn't even think about paying for it, all they had to do was promise, just verbal "honour" and "respect."
Well, this fits the medieval style.
"honor?"
The Black Dragon Emperor cracked a smile, and the exposed large fangs changed the atmosphere: "What is honor? What is respect and respect? Since when has the human trick started to work on the dragon?"
He said brutally, and suddenly the words turned around, and his thoughts broke away: "Dwarf, I think your war halberd is very interesting."
In this words, all the dwarves, including Atas, have changed their face. The dragon's greed is well known to the world. They know what the Black Dragon's idea is, but "The Atlas of the Atlas" is not just a legendary weapon. It is a symbol on the current flag of Stuart, a symbol of the existence of the Kingdom of Stuart for nearly two hundred years, and the spiritual pillar of the ambitious clan.
At the time, the banner of the Sanbao military alliance was also composed of the halberds of the ambitious clan, the hammers of the warhammer clan, and the staff of the thundercrow clan.
The black dragon looked down, and the dwarves were silent.
After a while, Prince Asta's uncertain face finally came to an end. He paused and said in a low voice, "For the continuation of Stuart!"
This sentence seemed to be used by him to convince himself. As soon as his voice fell, Atas took the dark gold trident horizontally ~ EbookFREE.me ~ holding up with both hands: "Powerful Black Dragon Emperor, this is the ambition clan to bring you Coming gift. "
"Very good." Caesar nodded, and his big paw poked down, politely picking it up.
"The Halberd of Atas" has five weapon traits, five blessings and two different types of spell-like abilities, which are more powerful than Caesar's "Isaac Thirsty Blood" originally given to Hogg. The dwarves watched the action of the black dragon emperor, seeing that he put the handed halberd in front of his eyes, looked at it, then stuffed it into his mouth and bite.
Unexpectedly, the collision between Atlas's Halberd and Dragon's Teeth did not splatter sparks or make harsh noises. The dwarves only heard a continuous, beeping vibrato, like a metal sob.
"Oh!" War Halberd was thrown back.
"The empire gives asylum and support, and the elves give loyalty and friendship. Do you want to have the same dignity as the elves? But do you know that they have fought for the empire and bleed for it?"
The Black Dragon Emperor turned and left: "All the land is outside the fortress. Inside the fortress, think again before coming back."
