I am a god in another world

"Don't act rashly. Lord Gavin did not hold me hostage. I voluntarily acted with him. He came to rescue us." Yuriu, the leader of the gray dwarf clan, seemed to have expected this kind of reaction from his people. Before he landed, he shouted loudly for the first time.

Rather than his current recognition of Gavin's ability, it is better to say that he recognizes the huge potential shown by Colossus City.

Regardless of Gavin's original power, as long as he is not too stupid and with this ultra-modern industrial city supporting him, his development speed will never be too slow.

And they gray dwarves will be an important part of it, and they can take the opportunity to seek a better life.

Compared with Gavin's previous promises, he believed more in the rights he fought for with both hands, because this was the most reliable.

At this juncture, we must not let our people do stupid things.

"Rescue us? What he is doing is not rescuing us, but harming us. These stupid outsiders don't know the strength of the Death Chiefs Council. Don't you know, patriarch? You actually tried to stop their army by destroying underground passages. Come on, you are so naive.

The ground-digging purple insects they control will soon dig through this place again, and even dig new passages. When their undead army comes, it will be our annihilation. "

"Don't trust the promises of outsiders easily. Lord Patriarch, you must not make a foolish decision."

"If you want us to believe you, you guys must first return our clan leader to us."

"The Dwarf Tomb is an important equipment production site for the Death Chiefs Council. They will never let it go easily. Maybe the news about this place has been spread back."

"Lord Patriarch..."

"Chief Yuriu..."

The shouts of the gray dwarves revealed their heartfelt fear and fear towards the Council of Death Chiefs. They have never been a race willing to be enslaved. Even if they were enslaved by the Mind Flayer using their minds to control them, they all broke free. Shackles, not to mention, ordinary control methods used by the Council of Death Chiefs.

Their ancestors have waged no fewer than ten rebellions, seeking to seize control of the Dwarven Tombs and shut out the rule of the Council of Death Chiefs.

Without exception, these rebellions were quickly suppressed by the Death Chiefs Council using cruel and bloody methods, and a large number of gray dwarves even joined the ranks of their undead army.

The vanguard of every rebellion is the undead spirit transformed by their gray dwarf ancestors.

Just by seeing them, most of the courage the gray dwarves had just raised to resist would dissipate.

"Purple worms? Digging purple worms? The Death Chiefs Council controls a large number of purple worms?" Gavin heard very crucial information from it and looked at the gray dwarf patriarch with a serious expression.

In recent times, they have been exploring these biological weapons and are very aware of the advantages of those powerful magical monsters in certain aspects, especially when paired with wisdom.

They had mentioned this creature before when discussing rock land development policies.

Purple worm, also known as ground-burrowing purple worm, this creature looks like an earthworm magnified countless times. It has a huge size that is not inferior to cloud rays, but its main length is that it has a big black hole-like mouth, which can It eats up the earth and rocks, sifts out organic matter that is useful to itself, and then excretes them, leaving holes four to five meters in diameter wherever they pass.

They are famous diggers in the Underdark, and many of the new tunnels are the blessings left behind by their passage through them, becoming new homes and territories for other creatures in the Underdark.

There are rumors of many intelligent races in the Underdark enslaving them for their own use. Among them, the drow who are good at training and using slaves are the most popular.

"We haven't seen it with our own eyes, but nearly half of the main tunnels leading here from the Council of Death Chiefs are not natural dark areas, but are dug out by these burrowing monsters. They are a group of monsters with extremely low intelligence. If Without human control, they would never be able to dig such a straight tunnel.”

Chief Yuriu explained, "So, we guess that the Death Chiefs Council has the method to control the purple insects."

"It's reasonable. There's no reason why they can't do what they could do a thousand years ago." Gavin attached great importance to this matter. "To appease your people, I will make corresponding arrangements and will never let it happen again." The Council of Death Chiefs made a surprise attack from the ground like they did against the dwarves."

Gai Wen had never expected that a blast of several hundred meters would be able to completely hold back the Council of Death Chiefs.

It is wise to place a large number of sentries in the passages that have not been blown down to monitor their every move.

If the Council of Death Chiefs takes over and desperately tries to open up the passage to the Colossus Dungeon, they will have to start a war even if they don't want to.

No matter how hot taro is, it cannot be given away.

This ultra-modern industrial city cannot function completely without any link.

After the Dungeon of the Colossus was captured by the Council of Death Chiefs, the dwarves in this city had to consider completely sealing and isolating the mineral veins.

"Please give me a little time, sir. After all, they have been under the rule of the Death Chiefs Council for too long, and at the same time they lack understanding of your strength. When they understand it like I do, I believe they will change their minds." The gray dwarf patriarch Try to prevent conflicts between the two sides as much as possible. Many things will be troublesome once blood is shed.

"Since they want you to go, just go!" Gavin has been lurking in the Colossus dungeon these days, following the gray dwarf chief for the longest time. He can't say that he has fully understood him, but one thing is certain, he is a smart man, a chief who is conscientious and responsible.

Since he is a smart man, it is not easy to make stupid decisions.

"Thank you, sir." The gray dwarf chief Yuliu hurriedly walked into the group of his people.

Seeing that their chief really has freedom of movement, most of the gray dwarves can't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the gray dwarf leaders who led the group immediately surrounded him.

"Chief, what happened? Where is Administrator Domingo? Where are the tribesmen who flew up with you? Are their lives in danger?"

"Chief, where are these people? Are they really related to the collapse of the previous passage and the lifting of the seal of the mine?"

"Chief, what should we do now? Should we leave them all here?"

"Let me answer one question at a time. How can I answer you all at once?" The chief of the gray dwarves said solemnly, "You want to launch an attack before you have a clear understanding of the situation. Do you want to annihilate the tribe?

Not to mention that there is an army above our heads that is enough to slaughter all of us. Those undead guards will not sit idly by?"

"What the chief means is that the control of these undead guards is in the hands of these strangers? Isn't this an alien invader, but a power struggle within the Council of the Chief of Death?"

"There are no other races in the Council of the Chief of Death. The stone giants always occupy the core ruling position. They are not even stone giants. How can they be internal? Seize power? "

"Don't guess randomly. They are not the same as the Council of Death Chiefs. They are the new controllers of the cities on the ground. The Troll Kingdom we know is a thing of the past."

Chief Yuliu said quickly, "No matter what the other party is, one thing is certain, that is, their strength is far superior to ours. If we dare to act rashly, we will definitely not end up well.

We had no choice in this matter from the beginning. We are just a group of slaves controlled by others.

Whether to be loyal to the Council of Death Chiefs or to the new lord in front of us, it doesn't make much difference to us, even if the Council of Death Chiefs takes revenge, kills us, and finally wins the war.

They can't do anything to us, after all, this time it's not us who rebelled.

The most important thing is that they need someone to operate this smelting forge, and this new lord also needs it.

In this case, why should we take the lead without authorization? "

Although the reality revealed by the gray dwarf chief is cruel, it is very convincing, making those gray dwarves look at each other involuntarily.

Yes!

The dwarf tombs were lost, that was something the Council of Death Chiefs should worry about, what did it have to do with a bunch of slaves like them?

What they should do is to fight for greater rights and interests from the new rulers.

"Chief, you just met with this new lord, what do you think of him? What should we do next?"

"Is there any way for this new lord to guarantee our supplies? Our food reserves are only enough to support us until the end of this month."

These gray dwarf leaders were all smart people and quickly changed their attitudes.

"The things that the Supreme Shanatar Dwarves have sealed in the mines are far more than we imagined. There are as many as 2,000 sets of dwarven heavy armor piled up in the treasure house alone, and other dwarven weapons and equipment are piled up like mountains.

The mining facilities here are absolutely more advanced than we can imagine. Once they are fully operational, the smelting and forging production lines must be produced day and night.

And above our heads, there are as many as three mushroom planting areas, enough to feed tens of thousands of dwarves.

As long as the two are reconnected, we can directly take the groundwater from the pressure layer, and we will never have to worry about water again."

Yuriu roughly reported to his tribesmen what he saw and heard during this visit, and everyone could hear the amazement and shock in his tone.

Every time he said a number, the gray dwarves present couldn't help but gasp.

The gray dwarves in the entire dwarf tomb were only more than a thousand people, and the number of dwarf heavy armor was enough for them to have two sets each.

After their gray dwarf clan entered the city, the average operation time of this smelting and forging production line in ten days was no more than eight hours.

The rest of the time, they were struggling to absorb the heat of the hot dry rocks and look for the iron ore tailings hidden in it.

Once it is running for 24 hours, the output will soar by 30 times. Only the operators here know what this means. It will be common for the monthly output to exceed 10,000 tons.

Don't think this is a small number.

This is something that a kingdom with 100,000 dwarves cannot do under the normal production mode.

And water and food are their biggest lifeline.

Since there is enough output here, they can rest assured.

As for whether Chief Yuriu is bragging, these gray dwarves are not worried at all. It is not just that they believe in the character of their chief, but mainly because they also have their own basic assumptions about the sealed mineral vein above their heads. A person who can How could the dwarf kingdom, which built such a great device as the dwarf tomb, be weak?

Now Yuriu just confirmed their original guess.

"Master Patriarch, what do you need us to do? We will listen to your arrangements."

"We all listen to the patriarch."

After being shocked, all the gray dwarves expressed their opinions one after another.

"Bring all your people back and pacify our people. Don't act rashly without my orders. Only by following the rules and prohibitions and showing them our unity can I gain greater rights from them. "

Yuriu obviously had something in mind, "For this new lord, everything here is brand new, and he needs someone to help him run this place.

That dwarf was not his subordinate, but his collaborator.

So, this is our best chance because no one knows this place better than us. "

Many things do not need to be stated explicitly, but can be inferred from just a few words.

"Okay, let's follow the clan leader's instructions and let's go."

"If you need anything, Patriarch, just ask, all of us are on your side."

"We are inseparable and that will never change."

The gray dwarves clapped their chests and made promises. They turned back step by step and slowly retreated from the front of the Giant's Palace, leaving this place to Yuriu.

After convincing his clansmen and watching them go, Yuriu returned to Gavin and his companions.

"So fast." Gavin pointed his thumb at the gray dwarf patriarch and said, "The patriarch's reputation seems to be higher than I expected. We already know almost everything we need to know, so let's talk about it. Let’s start with the Colossus dungeon when it comes to in-depth cooperation.

Chief Yuriu, you have lived here the longest and know it best. What do you think our top priority is? "

"Repair those artificially cut-off positions and restore the transmission of high-pressure steam in the mining area. Only in this way can those devices that rely on high-pressure steam drive be opened and operated, and we can resume production in the next step."

The gray dwarf clan leader opened his mouth. It was obvious that he had already considered this issue before. After all, it was directly related to the interests of their clan.

Not to mention other things, if those steel gates are not opened, how will they obtain a large amount of mushrooms from those mushroom cultivation areas, and how will they introduce the water from the giant slave living area into the Colossus dungeon?

"That's right." Gavin nodded in agreement, "There are two most urgent things at the moment. One is the retransmission of high-pressure steam, and the other is the reoperation of the cage shaft. These two things are related to each other. You must We need strong support from the underground city. After all, you know the operation of the high-pressure steam here best. If you use it carelessly, it can easily lead to disaster. "

The implication is obvious, this matter is obviously going to be left to these gray dwarves.

"This matter may be more troublesome than adults think. In order to make this place operational again, our ancestors made a lot of modifications here, especially the missing parts. Some unnecessary ones were either eradicated or blocked. On.

We have to find a way to change it back before we can resume delivering high-pressure steam to the mining area above.

The high-pressure steam pipelines in the mining area must also be comprehensively inspected, repaired and understood. Although their condition remains constant before being sealed, we cannot place our hopes on guesswork. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong, just as the Lord said, This is an extremely dangerous thing and no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful. "

Yuriu is actively making suggestions. His current mentality is completely different from before. He is not afraid of the difficult tasks now, but is afraid that the other party does not want to hand over those irreplaceable tasks to them.

Because the more difficult the task they are responsible for, the higher their importance to each other, the safer they are, and the higher their treatment.

The Council of Death Chiefs adopts a relatively loose governance method for them. They know that the living stone giants are prone to neglect their duties, so they still send them here instead of sending the undead stone giants who are strict, rigid, and unflexible to rule.

It is because of their irreplaceable role in maintaining the Colossus Dungeon.

"It makes sense, but your manpower is limited. If two tasks are carried out at the same time, the progress will be extremely slow. You should give priority to the docking and repair work on both sides. As for the maintenance of high-pressure steam pipelines in the mining area, we will postpone the discussion."

Gavin now has a deep understanding of management, and many things require a balance. The gray dwarves have already mastered the most important part of running the Colossus dungeon. If they were to leave the operation of the most important steam pipeline in the entire mining area to them.

Over time, they will play an irreplaceable role in Colossus City.

Once this happens, trouble often begins.

What if they are dissatisfied with their situation and salary, unite, and use this as a threat?

Don't think it's just worrying too much. People's hearts will never be satisfied. Even if they are satisfied now, they will become dissatisfied as time goes by.

When they were too poor to take the blame, they had a job that could barely make a living and were content.

When they don't have to worry about food, they will worry about their wages and surplus.

When they have a small amount of assets, they start to think about high-paying vacations.

When they have high-paying vacations, they will worry about their rights and interests.

This kind of greed is a normal human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it. As long as it is fought for and maintained by normal means, Gavin does not reject it. After all, he adheres to the purpose of win-win cooperation. If he treats his allies like this, how can he treat his own people badly?

However, it is absolutely not allowed to create a technological monopoly within the territory and threaten himself to achieve his goals.

Especially the gray dwarves, their ancestors were severely assimilated and eroded during the period when they were manipulated by the mind flayers with mind slavery. Now they have innate evil and distortion, and their natural camp is in the same camp as the devils like the dog demons, which is the standard lawful evil.

They can use it, but all kinds of checks and balances and precautions must be done well.
