Warhammer Wizard

"What can I get?"

Facing Renn's question, Kstarkin was not surprised at all.

This time, the dwarves used the power of the whole family to open up the new continent, nominally to restore the glory of their ancestors, but this was just a rhetoric to inspire the people of the clan.

Of course, the dwarf kings also knew that this was robbing Ren's interests.

The two sides are allies who have signed a covenant. It is really unkind to do so, but for the survival prospects of the whole family, the kings can only resort to this.

In fact, the kings knew that the best way to develop a new continent was to cooperate with Renn, but the initiative was not in their own hands, and Ren was at the mercy of him.

Since Ren did it by himself, it would be shameless to ask Ren for help.

Since the development plan was made, the upper dwarves, including the five kings, took a sigh of relief. They must succeed and never let Ren see a joke. Therefore, in the past few months, they have been counterattacked by the Demons of Netifth. Even if they lost one-third of their legions, the kings insisted on gritting their teeth and did not send a single request for help to Gotham City. .

But now I can't stand it anymore!

Last night, the "Chessac Wall" was breached by the demons. The dwarves paid a huge price to destroy the enemy and blocked the gap in the city wall again.

After the battle, the casualties were counted, and it was found that more than 20,000 people were lost overnight.

There were only 200,000 dwarf legions participating in the development plan. This was a united legion of five underground fortresses. They were almost the elite of the entire dwarf clan. In just over half a year, they lost nearly half of them. This was a huge blow to the kings.

The Majin army suffered more casualties, but they were constantly replenished.

The power of the enemy and ours has been unbalanced.

"Bloodthirsty King" Kurgus is likely to be brewing the next more violent attack, and the Chessac city wall will inevitably fall again.

At that time, the kings have to consider not the success of the development plan, but the life and death of the dwarf legion.

If the army of 200,000 dwarves were wiped out, the dwarves would be finished.

At such a precarious moment, the dwarf kings finally bowed their heads, without caring about their face and honor, and immediately asked Kostarkin to ask for help in Gotham City.

Kerstarkin and Ryan are the most familiar and have a good relationship.

He knows Ren's character. Ren doesn't care too much about small things and small profits, but when it comes to big things, he is by no means a good person like a Virgin who does good deeds without expecting anything in return, so he did it well before he set off. Mental preparation for killing a knife.

"what do you want?"

Kostakin immediately responded loudly, with a posture of being slaughtered by you, "As long as we dwarves have something, you can take it."

"Really anything?" Ren smiled noncommittally.

"Uh……"

Kerstarkin hesitated.

"My principle is to exchange for equal value, and I won't take advantage of others to take advantage of the situation." Ren saw through Kstarkin's mind at a glance, "We have one thing to say, and you should do what you want. You don't have to be too big. It's an attitude among allies to write a blank check and test my bottom line."

Kerstarkin's old face was slightly red, "I'm too impatient, Ren, I'm sorry."

Ren shook his head, didn't care, and said again: "I can rescue you, the key is, what kind of result do the dwarf kings want?"

"Is there any difference?" Kostarkin didn't respond for a moment.

"Of course it's different." Ren said with a serious face: "Do the kings want me to send troops to repel the demon army and let the dwarf army retreat safely; or to fully participate in the development plan to help the dwarves successfully occupy the Dravil Peninsula and stand Stand firm?"

"These two results, the former only needs to repel the demon army once, while the latter needs to fight for a long time and repel the enemy many times."

"So there is a difference in the price the dwarves pay me."

Kstarkin immediately understood and said without hesitation: "Of course it is the latter! We have already sacrificed nearly 100,000 people's lives for the Dravil Peninsula. If we just withdraw to the World Mountains, the lives of so many people will be lost. Sacrifice in vain."

Ren smiled in his heart, and he had expected this.

Sunk costs!

The dwarves have paid too much for the development plan, like a gambler who has gone to the gambling table. After losing most of his chips, he will never stop his losses easily.

The more you lose, the harder it is to stop.

The lives of 100,000 dwarf warriors, the transmission cost of 20 million gold shields, and the purchase of military supplies also cost tens of millions of gold shields. If the legion withdraws to the World Mountains, it will pay tens of millions of gold shields for the transmission cost. Pushed to a dead end.

The dwarves have already lost the red eye, as long as there is a chance to turn the book, they are not willing to miss it.

"We must occupy the Dravil Peninsula!"

Kestarkin said decisively: "Ren, for this goal, the army of 200,000 dwarves would rather stream the last drop of blood."

He looked at Ren firmly, "Tell me, what do you want?"

"Two things."

Ren stretched out two fingers, obviously he had already thought about it, and said with a smile: "One is alchemy materials and magic metals worth 500 million gold shields, and the other is sovereignty."

"Five hundred million..."

Kerstarkin's eyes widened and he almost jumped up.

"Is that a lot?" Ren asked rhetorically.

Before waiting for Kostarkin to bargain, he added: "The price of a price depends not on the specific number, but on whether you can get it. Five hundred million gold shields may be an exorbitant price, but for the entire dwarves It's not an unacceptable price, you have the financial resources to pay for it."

Who is the richest person in the world is a difficult question to answer.

But to ask who is the richest race in the world, it must be the dwarves.

From the very beginning of its birth, dwarves have been excavating more kinds of mines in the underground world, gold, mithril, fine gold, crystal gems, and various magic metals. Dwarves, like dragons, have a habit of collecting, and accumulate the wealth they have excavated. It has been more than 10,000 years from the rise of the dwarves to the decline. Even though they are no longer in their former glory, there are only five underground fortresses left, but when the era changes, the dwarves have enough time to transfer their treasures back to the World Mountains.

Conservatively estimated, even if only one tenth is left, it is an unimaginable wealth.

As long as he only needs 500 million gold shields, he is already very kind.

Usually trying to dig out the treasure from the hands of these miser, it can be said to be extremely difficult, almost like killing them.

Now that I have this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I will definitely squeeze a fortune.

"But……"

Kostarkin nodded, shook his head quickly, and inhaled: "500 million is really too much!"

It can be seen from his reaction that the dwarves can indeed get 500 million, but he just thinks the price is too high, Ren smiled and said: "The five dwarf kingdoms are evenly divided, and each underground fortress only needs 100 million, then Not much."

Kerstarkin scratched his beard, thinking that it would not be difficult for the High Mountain Kingdom to give out 100 million.

wrong!

What Ren wants is alchemy materials and magic metals of 100 million gold shields. Many precious materials and metals cannot be bought with money in the market, and the actual value is more than 100 million gold shields.

"Can it be paid in gold?" asked Kstarkin.

"no."

Ren decisively refused, he had just scoured the treasure of the ancient black iron dragon, and he had a lot of gold in his hand, and he couldn't spend all the flowers.

To manufacture power armor, star destroyers and various weapons and equipment, what is lacking is not funds, but alchemy materials and magic metals, the imperial market and the surrounding human kingdoms, because of their frenzied purchases over the years, most of the prices have risen. , you can't even buy it.

The dwarves store a huge amount of materials and metals in their hands, just enough to meet their needs.

Kerstarkin also wanted to haggle.

But Ren was bitten to death, and he didn't cut the price whatever he said.

The Eye of the Soul has long seen the bottom line of Kostarkin's heart. This price is acceptable to the dwarves, and of course he will not let it go.

"Okay, 500 million is 500 million."

Kstarkin lost his patience. Now the time is urgent. The demon army may attack at any time. He can only agree and immediately ask: "The second thing you asked for, sovereignty, what does this mean?"

"It's very simple, the land developed by the dwarves in the New World belongs to me." As soon as Ren explained, Kstarkin's face changed greatly, "Don't worry, just listen to me. I want what I want. It is only nominal sovereignty, but it will give the dwarves a high degree of autonomy, no taxes, and no interference in the internal affairs of the dwarves, and they are still allies in fact."

Kostarkin's expression softened a little, but it was still ugly, and he shook his head and said, "Dwarves cannot accept being a vassal of humans, even in name only."

"What's more, with your strength..."

He did not continue to say the following words.

Others don't know, Kstarkin knows Ren's inside story. Ren's legion is stronger than the entire dwarf clan, and it is getting stronger every year, every month, and even every day. As long as Ren is willing, he can turn the nominal dominion into reality at any time.

Ren has sovereignty, and even if he annexes the territory of the dwarves and directly rules all the dwarves in the new continent, no one can blame him.

This is equivalent to putting a knife around his neck and sending the handle to Ren's hand.

"It's fine if you don't accept it."

Ren looked indifferent and didn't talk about sovereignty anymore, "Then take a step back, I will help you defeat the demon army and **** the dwarf army back to Gotham City. This price is cheap, I don't want sovereignty, and I don't want five The materials and metals for the 100 million gold shield are only 100 million."

"Wait." Kstarkin didn't want to leave at all. "Sovereignty can't make concessions, but we can increase the price."

"Without sovereignty, I don't want any more money." Ren's attitude was very tough.

Kerstarkin was helpless, "Is there really nothing to talk about?"

Ren spread his hands.

The entire New World is what I like in my pocket. As early as two years ago, I have set a blueprint for developing the New World, how to eliminate the devil, the Scourge and the Devil, step by step to nibble on the enemy's territory, and then clean up the pollution. , and then how to develop, have a general idea.

This is an ambitious development plan that will take at least ten or even decades.

The amount of money and manpower invested is innumerable.

I will never allow others to meddle in the new continent. The upper-level forces of the empire have tested their words many times, hoping to participate in the development of the new continent and get a piece of the pie, but I do not agree. Later, the interests of the subcontinent trading company were used to divert attention, temporarily preventing the major forces of the empire from coveting the new continent.

At the beginning of the year, I agreed with the dwarves to borrow the teleportation array because the two parties were allies, and they expected that the dwarves would inevitably fail.

Things turned out as expected.

In the end, the dwarves still demanded from their own heads. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they must obtain sovereignty. It is impossible for the dwarves to establish territories that are not under their control in the new continent.

They either accept the vassal or roll back to World Mountains, there is no third option.

Kerstarkin understood from Ren's attitude.

Then fell silent.

Seeing his emotions fluctuating violently, Ren was obviously struggling, so he said: "I suggest that the dwarves accept my conditions. Although you have lost your sovereignty, you have gained territory, allowing the entire clan to develop and survive, without the sacrifice of the clan. In vain."

Kerstarkin hesitated, but didn't respond.

"In addition, since the sovereignty belongs to me, then I will naturally demarcate the territorial boundaries of the dwarves." Ren said calmly and for granted: "My current thinking is that the entire Dreyer Peninsula belongs to the dwarves, so I will use Chesa. The wall is the boundary."

"The Dreyer Peninsula covers an area of ​​more than 40,000 square kilometers. The island is fertile and rich in resources, enough to feed millions of dwarves."

"But I've always been a very generous person."

"There is also a 'Kenton Peninsula' between Gotham City and Dreyer, which is also bounded by a river and is about 50,000 square miles. The island has two natural harbors with excellent conditions, which are also together. to the dwarves."

Kirstarkin's expression fluctuated.

The location and environment of the Kenton Peninsula is better than that of Dreyer, and the area is also larger, but it is completely bordered by the New World. It is only blocked by a river that is not too wide, and it is very difficult to defend. Therefore, the dwarf kings did not have Choose to occupy the Kenton Peninsula.

The two peninsulas adjoin each other and add up to nearly 100,000 square miles.

This is equivalent to two provinces of the empire.

Moreover, it is the territory with the most fertile land, the most abundant resources, and is extremely beneficial to economic development. The natural conditions of few provinces in the empire can be compared. At the junction of the two peninsulas, that is, the mouth of the "Drewell River", a huge city was once built, which was the fifth largest city in the New World during the Elves Empire.

Today, there are about 2.7 million dwarves in the entire family. Even if they all migrated over, the two peninsulas can easily accommodate them, and there is no need to worry about living space in the next few hundred years.

With such a large territory, it is very easy to feed 10 million dwarves!

But to become Ren's vassal...

Kerstarkin was quite moved, and his position had been shaken.

The eye of the soul saw his change, Ren decided to work harder and said softly: "I can reveal a piece of news, after defeating the demon army, I am going to build a tower in 'Tisibiya' and arrange 'Wei Jie' Strel's Magic Torchlight' Runic Circle."

"This is real?"

Kerstarkin's eyes widened, surprise and delight on his face.

The reason why Gotham City has developed so rapidly and its population has grown wildly is precisely because of the existence of the Statue of Magic, whose magical brilliance illuminates the space within 300 miles, making it impossible for evil to invade, forming a very safe area.

Whether it is the Dreyer Peninsula or the Kenton Peninsula, they are all within three hundred miles of Tsibiya.

As long as that tall tower is built, the demon army will not be a problem.

Moreover, the shining range of the tower and the statue of the goddess of magic can be connected to form a safe area along the east coast. The dwarf territory is in the middle of this area, which can completely settle down and concentrate on building cities and developing the economy.

In this way, it seems that it is not impossible to consider sending sovereignty.

Dwarves pay a lot, but get more!

"of course it's true."

Ren smiled calmly: "In a few days, a brand new Eola core will be manufactured, and I have prepared the materials for the rune magic circle."

Vejestry's magic torchlight is a tenth-level spell that requires the core of Eola as a source of energy, so that it can maintain its magical brilliance at all times.

Kirskin knows this well.

He finally understood, and smiled bitterly: "Ren, have you been waiting for us to ask you for help?"

Otherwise, how could Ren even have the core of Eola ready.

"I said no, would you believe it?" Ren laughed.

The most critical core of his own plan to open up the new continent is the "Core of Eola" and "The Magic Torch of Weejiestree". The combination of the two is arranged at the selected position on the coast of the New World to create multiple safe areas. Encircling the interior from three sides, compressing the enemy's survival and activity space step by step, until all enemies are eliminated.

Tisibibia was originally the next location he chose.

The dwarves also happened to take a fancy to this area.

Even if there are no dwarves, he will launch an offensive against Tisibiya by early next year at the latest. The dwarves have joined in, just to advance the plan.

However, Kerstarkin obviously won't believe it.

He shook his head wryly.

Ren didn't care about it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Believe it or not, he got up and said, "I'm done talking, so think about it."

"It's not up to me to decide." Seeing that Ren seemed to be about to get up and leave, Kerstarkin was anxious like an ant on a hot pan, "I want to discuss it with the kings."

"Please."

Ren made a gesture.

Kostarkin hurried out of the living room, and several legendary dwarf mages waited outside, helping him cast spells and confer with the dwarven kings on the Dravil Peninsula.

Ren was not interested in eavesdropping on their conversation, and came to his daughter's bedroom, where Elizabeth had fallen asleep under the care of the maid. He sat on the edge of the cot, looking at his daughter sleeping soundly, with a gentle smile on his face.

After a while, he entered the study room.

After a while, Kestarkin knocked on the door and said in a hurry, "Ren, His Majesty the Kings agreed to your request."
