Twenty Sided Dice

? The sound of digging has been ringing in Siegel's ears for days, and now he can finally get rid of it. ↗, when the air drill finally penetrated the rock formation and the fresh air from outside kept pouring in, Siegel felt as if he had been given a new life.

It was not yet dawn outside, and the world was silent and gray. Everyone seemed to have just woken up from a dream, staggering and falling into this lonely gray. Siegel stood on the hillside at the entrance of the cave, and it took a while to adjust his sense of direction. He had long been accustomed to the Walled Mountains in the west of the territory, but now he was in the west of the Mountains.

"Finally through." The dwarf's breath steamed in the cold air, which was colder and drier than the east side of the mountain. Maybe it's been too long underground, and winter is starting to come silently? Siegel was a little unsure, maybe it was just the local climate.

Several people walked down the mountain and came to a low ridge. At this time, the morning light finally revealed its face, and a faint golden light radiated from the top of the city wall mountain range. Siegel then thought that because of the blocking of the mountains, he wanted to see the sunrise later than the east, especially at the foot of the mountain, where the cold and dark nights were longer.

They stopped, and at this time they were several miles below the entrance of the cave. Looking into the distance with the help of the morning light, there is a vast grassland in the field of vision. Under the approach of the cold, the grassland became withered and yellow, but it still seemed to have a thick blanket on the ground. Siegel kept seeing the distant horizon until his eyes hurt and he couldn't find the so-called hills and ravines. This place seems to be wider than the sea, and it is terrifying to teach people directly.

"This is the view west of the Walled Mountains," said the dwarf. He crouched down and pulled out a thatch. Grab a handful of dirt from the pit. "Look. The soil here can be cultivated. But no one has ever used it. What a pity! What a waste!"

"Are there any tribes nearby?"

"I don't know about that either," said the dwarf. "The barbarians are wandering around. They don't have a fixed residence and don't build castles. Because they can't always take care of the farmland in one place, and there are many wild animals here, they will be destroyed if they are not careful. The crops are lost, so they are seldom planted. There are very few stones in the vast grasslands, and unless you go to the ravine area, there is also a lack of iron ore and copper ore, and you can't make good tools."

"But that doesn't matter to me. I can bring it from east of the mountains," Siegel asked. "So what can the barbarians provide here? Food is what I need most."

"It's winter now, I'm afraid there won't be too much meat, but they always have dairy products and furs." The dwarf smiled and said to Siegel: "Actually, the most animals on this land are all kinds of animals, I've seen them before. Thousands of bison have migrated together many times. Do you have enough weapons? Go hunting!"

"I'm afraid it's not the time to hunt," Siegel said. "Should we protect the entrance of the cave and avoid being discovered by Mora's Peak?"

"You're right, Lord, this matter is the most important thing." Dwarf Locke replied: "But please let me breathe the air outside the cage first."

After a while, when the sun shone on everyone's shoulders, they turned back. The dwarf rune master and Sigal set up a magical barrier around the entrance of the cave. Except for those who know certain secret words. Otherwise, others will not be able to open the entrance to the cave. If you want to silently destroy this layer of protection, you must disarm the rune and the mage spell at the same time. This is too difficult for outsiders.

After that, they plan to build a fortress on the hillside below the cave entrance as a transitional base, which can be used as an important hub for material exchange in the future. Since it was not built on the entrance of the cave, even if someone captured the fort, they could not find the entrance to the east of the mountain range. Siegel could mobilize troops to fight back and retake his castle at any time.

At the same time, it is necessary to continue to lay the ropeway system, especially to solve the transportation problem in the section of the original emerald mine. For fear of being discovered by the Rune Array in the City Wall Mountains, the width of this tunnel cannot be easily expanded, and vehicles cannot travel in it. It is difficult to form a stable transportation environment if you rely on people to pull the shoulders or unicycles. The ropeway system can undulate and pass along the direction of the tunnel, which will greatly save manpower.

In this regard, Siegel's experience is far less than that of the dwarves. These strong miners have extensive experience in underground engineering construction, ropeways and hoisting systems, making it completely impossible for mages to get involved. They gathered the remaining rune materials, used metal ropes made of alloy as the main body, and made sliding hooks with strong runes, repair runes and light runes. The dwarf tried it, and each sliding hook can support 400 pounds of items, and can move forward with the help of the ropeway very stably.

The construction of the fortress and the ropeway system will take at least ten days to take shape, and Siegel will not rashly contact the barbarian tribe before that. He tried to teleport back to Myr City, but found that his spells could not establish a connection with his castle across the Walled Mountains. At this time, he learned what is called border closure and what is called city wall. There was no way, Siegel could only walk back to Myr City, and at most cast light spirits to speed up.

Only a few people, such as Janet, Faizac, Mana, Humke, and Janis, knew about this secret passage. If they heard the news of the tunnel's penetration, they would surely cheer. However, Mana is not in Myr City now. She took a 50-person **** team to the north along the City Wall Mountains to visit the lords of the defensive chain castles.

Siegel called Moore, tapped him on the shoulder, and ordered him to kneel. "Moore, are you willing to swear allegiance to me and be a man of courage and integrity? Will you be able to face your enemies fearlessly and be honest even when you may incur death? Can you use your life to Weapons protect the weak, never do it for the sake of being small?"

Moore nodded, clenched his right fist on his chest: "Yes, I swear!"

Siegel tapped Maul's shoulders with the icy blade of Stardust, and made him rise. "You are my knight now, you must remember your oath, and be strict with yourself even when you are not by my side. I now want you to go to Rhett's temple to meditate for a long time, and then go home to celebrate with your family. By tomorrow morning When the time comes, you'll be ready to go. Remember, you'll be the first to build a castle west of the Walled Mountains."

"Lord Lord, do you mean that I will have a castle?" Moore's hands and feet trembled, obviously a little overwhelmed with excitement.

"Don't be nervous, you heard it right." Siegel said: "I plan to build a fortress to protect the tunnel exit. There is only a prototype there, and you need to worry about everything. Myr City will fully support, especially the construction of the castle. You can also ask your grandfather to help recommend candidates and help you take care of the daily affairs of the castle. My request is very simple: this passage of life and death must be kept safe and smooth, and you must pay attention to maintaining the trading relationship with the barbarians, and Let material resources flow to and from both ends of the tunnel.”

"Follow your orders, my lord, I will definitely do it!"

"Okay, go get your grandfather, I want to ask him about the elves."

More hesitated for a moment, but still summoned the courage to say honestly: "Lord Lord, I think it's better to tell you in advance. The elf army outside Heimland is led by Master Leia."

A shadow suddenly enveloped the room, and there seemed to be the sound of roaring flames burning in the black shadow. Siegel's body suddenly seemed heavy and powerful, as cold as a rock, and the shadows that blocked all light were emanating from him. Moore couldn't help shivering when the shadows hit, but soon felt a huge heat, like being in a volcano.

Siegel squeezed his fist, then slowly released it. The fiery shadow gradually subsided, and Moore resumed his breathing. "Go, call Feizak." Siegel said weakly, "Let the kitchen bring some warm red wine, and then get my pipe."

Moore hurriedly went to discuss these matters. When the one-eyed father came, Siegel was already sitting on the lord chair in the study, apparently calming down.

Before Feizak could speak, Siegel said to himself:

"I calmed down and thought about it carefully. It's a good thing that Leah is in the opposite legion. This means that she still has feelings for Heimland, right?"

Feizak nodded, then shook his head again. "Not necessarily for Heimland, but for you it must be."

"When Mr. Leah left the city of Myr, she probably didn't know the strategy of the elves. Back then in Isloris, I think his Druid father seemed to have something to say. Now I think it may be the war of the elves. The Ancient Tree Project. Leah went back to Isloris, and after learning about it, she had various options and was able to go in all directions, but she finally chose the southwest, which is the direction of Heim Land."

Feizak agreed and said: "As far as I know, Heimland is the area that has been affected and suffered the least in this chaos. And a few days ago, she gave us time for farmers to quickly harvest turnips~www .wuxiaspot.com~ Increased food reserves. Siegel, I suggest you still see her as soon as possible, it will be good for both of you."

"In what capacity do I see him?" Siegel took a sip of red wine and said after clearing his throat: "My plan is to provoke a joint meeting between the elves and Knox, to turn the focus of the war to the north, and to prepare some Information. But if the information is true or false, if it is submitted by Leah, after the war, if the elf is still there, she will definitely be implicated."

"Lord, you must also consider it. Leah is outside the city, and the elves know your relationship. If the information is not handed over to her, no elves will believe it."

"That's why I hesitated." Siegel buried himself in the seat back and slowly highlighted the question: "Fezak, what do you think I should do?"

"You can't pass up this opportunity." Feizak's one eye shone brightly. "Unless you have other plans, don't change the original plan. If you can't be ruthless, I can go again and deliver these materials for you."

"No, there is no difference between you and me. I compiled all the information." Siegel closed his eyes and fell into silence, before speaking again after a long time. "You have made up your mind. You help me arrange a meeting with Leah, but you must pay attention to absolute confidentiality." (To be continued..)
