Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Otto Copperfurnace walked into the Dwarf King's Palace with a windy walk. He didn't look sideways all the way. He walked directly through the hall and sat on his throne.

Afterwards, all the dwarves who had just sat down stood up and saluted.

Although Shi Lei and Xie Liancheng were not the other party's ministers, basic etiquette was still required when meeting the king of another country.

With this thought in mind, the two of them also stood up, bowed slightly towards Otto Bronze Furnace, and then just saluted.

Immediately afterwards, Otto's energetic voice rang out.

"Everyone, sit down!"

While speaking, Otto's eyes fell on Shi Lei and Xie Liancheng.

At that moment, Xie Liancheng clearly felt a pressure that could not be ignored.

[This feeling. This guy named Otto is really strong! 】

The previous battles in the northeastern region had made Xie Liancheng clearly aware that there were strong men at the Vajra level on the greenskin side.

The size of the green-skinned army in Copperhearth Castle is even more exaggerated than that in the Northeast. It is a bit unrealistic to say that this obviously stronger green-skinned group does not have a strong man at the Vajra level.

Under this premise, in the previous battle, the strong man on the green-skinned side did not show up for a long time.

When such a situation occurs, there is only one possibility, that is, there are strong men of the same level on the Copperhearth Castle side who have formed a check and balance, resulting in the strong men on both sides being unable to act rashly.

Balai has some strength, but not to that level. Jie Liancheng estimates that he is at the level of Hundred Refining Realm.

But this time, after meeting Otto Copperfurnace, King of Copperfurnace Castle, Jie Liancheng's doubts could be said to be completely dispelled.

Just as Jie Liancheng was thinking about this, Otto's voice rang again.

"This banquet is mainly to welcome our friends from Dazhou..."

As Otto spoke, he raised the wine barrel cup in his hand towards Shi Lei and Xie Liancheng.

"This is my first glass of wine, a toast to my friends!"

While talking, Otto drank the drink in one gulp with unusual boldness.

When Shi Lei and Xie Liancheng saw this, they had no choice but to quit.

Fortunately, this was not a high-altitude wine. It was probably rye beer. However, the brewing process was limited and the taste was very rough. Although the alcohol content was not high, the strong bitter taste made Xie Liancheng confused.

In comparison, those dwarves drank like crazy.

Even Bale and Woking are no exception.

After all, wine is made from grain, and during wartime, grain was an important material. This also made wine basically a luxury product during wartime.

If it weren't for the arrival of reinforcements from the Great Zhou Dynasty this time, it would not be that easy for these dwarves to have a sip of beer.

Now that they have the opportunity, they must not drink to death?

During this process, what made Xie Liancheng a little concerned was that Otto, after a round of toasts, told his brother Bale to entertain him well, saying that he still had matters to deal with, and then left.

Logically speaking, as the host of this kind of banquet, Otto should leave it alone even if something happened. There is no excuse for leaving the party first.

Looking at Otto's leaving figure, Jie Liancheng couldn't help but be in a trance.

But before he could think too much, the eldest prince Balon came over to propose a toast.

This is undoubtedly a man who can drink. Shi Lei doesn't like to drink much on weekdays and has a limited capacity for alcohol. He obviously can't handle it anymore. When Xie Liancheng saw this, he quickly greeted him and helped Shi Lei stop the wine.

Before traveling through time, his drinking capacity was actually average, but he could still afford this beer.

I don't know how long I drank this. When the show ended, even Jie Liancheng's steps were a little sloppy.

[Damn, these dwarves are all a bunch of drunkards? ! 】

"call--"

After returning to the camp, Xie Liancheng slumped down on the chair and finally breathed a sigh of relief.     “I’ve already asked someone to make sobering soup.”

Since most of the wine was blocked by Jie Liancheng, Shi Lei was in pretty good shape at the moment.

After hearing this, Xie Liancheng waved his hand directly.

"It's okay, my mind is still clear."

As Xie Liancheng spoke, he patted his cheek hard, and then got straight to the point.

"The king of the dwarves is at least a strong man at the King Kong level."

At this point, Jie Liancheng's voice paused.

"And the eldest prince is probably not a vegetarian either."

"You mean, there are two Vajra realms in Copperhearth Castle?"

Xie Liancheng shook his head.

"First Prince, I'm not sure. I can only say it's possible."

When talking about this matter, Xie Liancheng really felt a little melancholy.

Originally, he had also begun to attack the Vajra Realm, but in the Northeast battle, he was overloaded and suffered injuries all over his body.

People often say that it takes a hundred days to break a muscle, but his condition at that time was more serious than injuries. It took almost a year just to recuperate from the injuries. During this period, he was unable to carry out high-intensity training, and even his strength showed up. Backsliding.

Later, although I came back from practice, I was still stuck at the bottleneck of this great realm and I didn't know how to break through, or I couldn't find the state.

Xie Liancheng probably knew what was going on with him.

This is probably PTSD, also known as post-traumatic stress disorder.

This situation also happens in sports circles. For example, if a runner has a broken leg and recovers, the doctor tells you that there is no problem at all and it will not affect subsequent training and competitions, but your running performance But it dropped.

At first you thought it was because you hadn't run for too long and your competitive state had declined, which led to this situation.

However, after actively training, you still couldn't run as well as you did before the injury.

Many people may attribute it to injuries. It is common for athletes who have been injured to be unable to recover to their peak state.

In fact, it can be said that way, but the real reason is probably because your subconscious mind is avoiding it. You are afraid that this leg will break again, so you dare not really run at full speed!

Even the athletes themselves may not realize this.

Xie Liancheng is aware of this problem, but what can he do? Psychological problems like this are not easy to solve after knowing.

Taking a deep breath, Xie Liancheng didn't let himself dwell on this problem for too long.

During this period, he seemed to remember something, and after hesitating for a while, he spoke again...

"Oh, by the way, the dwarf king. I don't know if it's my illusion, he seems to be injured."

Shi Lei was shocked when he heard this, and then his expression quickly became serious.

"That is to say, before we came, the strong men on both sides had probably fought once."

"It is very likely."

Jie Liancheng nodded, and then expressed his concerns.

"Being injured is not scary, what is scary is that he is still injured, but the strong green-skinned man on the opposite side has recovered. Don't forget, the green-skinned man's recovery ability is amazingly strong!"
