Chapter 480: Mithril!
I have to say that "Shimmer" is a black dragon who knows current affairs very well.
After comparing the size gap between himself and the other party, he chose to surrender without even a word of nonsense.
Not only did it surrender itself, but its army of thousands of gray dwarves also threw itself into the arms of its new master.
You must know that this is not an ordinary gray dwarf, but a huge tribe of gray dwarves who have occupied the Mithril Hall for hundreds of years, and the Mithril in their hands has exceeded the world's imagination, not only is the treasury piled up, but each adult gray dwarf has at least one set of full-body armor made of Mithril, at least three Mithril weapons, a Mithril shield, countless Mithril arrows, and crossbow arrows.
If it is sold on the surface, it is estimated that it will be enough to plunge the entire northern region into a state of scarcity of precious metals.
After all, the biggest feature of Mithril in the Faren Continent is that it weighs only half of steel in the same volume, but it is harder and tougher than the best steel, making it the most ideal raw material for weapons and armor.
Think about it, what does it mean when the same equipment, one is made of Mithril and the other is made of steel, the former is half as light as the latter?
This means that if there is not much difference in strength between the two, the former will have faster movements and reactions, and the loss of stamina will be slower, and the latter can be easily killed.
So no warrior can resist the temptation of Mithril weapons and armor to spend a lot of money on it.
It can be said that with the exception of Adamantite, which is as hard as diamond, there are very few magical metals that can be compared to Mithril.
Looking at the Mithril ingots piled up in the center of the square below the valley, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad! It seems that you have mined this vein a lot over the years!"
"Great master, ever since we took over the damned surface dwarves here, we've been mining ore and smelting Mithril every day, and even the dark elves of the Dark Lands can't match our reserves. An elderly gray dwarf with a gray beard and hair bent down and cautiously responded.
As a veteran who had been involved in that war himself, he would never forget the horrific toll inflicted by Shimmer's dive, and the Warhammers barely resisted for less than ten minutes before fleeing frantically.
From that moment on, he had made up his mind that he would never be an enemy of the dragon, or his people would be destroyed.
"Very good, tell me, how long can this vein be mined?" Zhang Cheng undoubtedly noticed the other party's awe-inspiring eyes, and continued to ask.
"At the current rate, at least a hundred years. The old dwarf hesitated for a moment, and quickly gave his guess.
"A hundred years...... What if I joined in and devastating mining with the scorching dragon's breath?"
"Even if you spit flames without sleep, it will take at least about five years, and the later the veins tend to be, the more impurities and associated veins there are, and the less efficient they will be. Also, I would venture to ask, are you going to give up this place?" the old dwarf visibly sensed something, and looked up with a nervous look of temptation.
"Yes, I can tell you for sure that this place is already under the radar of some powerful forces, and it won't be long before they send a large army to launch a campaign, and if you don't want to suffer heavy losses, you'd better move quickly. Zhang Cheng gave a straightforward answer.
Perhaps in the eyes of many, the recovery of the Vault is only a private matter for Bruno, with only his people and Adeba's shield dwarves involved.
But in fact, whether it was Kelburn in Waterdeep City or Erastro in Silvermoon City, they all secretly made a lot of efforts.
This is equivalent to saying that the voters of the goddess of magic are eyeing this place, not to mention a few thousand gray dwarves, even a few dragons are useless.
Erastro, in particular, has been actively campaigning between the towns of the Northlands in recent times, trying to use his influence to bring the conflicting rulers to the negotiating table and form a loose alliance.
Zhang Cheng felt that these actions were most likely aimed at himself and Luskan under his control.
"Conquer?!, could it be that they are so powerful that even you will be afraid of them?" the old dwarf was obviously a little difficult to accept such a result, and the expression on his face was extremely distorted.
"Yes. Maybe it's not hard to repel them once or twice, but do you know what happens next?" Zhang Cheng lowered his head and stared at two eyes full of madness. "Then there will be a god joining! the goddess of magic, one of the most powerful gods in the world, and her elect will be our enemies. Tell me, have you seen the power of legendary magic, and do you want to watch your people slaughtered by terrible magic?"
"No, no, you're right, we must get out of here!" the old dwarf shuddered and shook his head desperately.
Few mortals dared to ignore the majesty of the gods, not even the weakest.
Because the priesthood and transcendent divine power they possess are a kind of power that cannot be explained in words at all, especially the transcendent divine power called "life and death", which can penetrate most of the protection in an instant and directly kill a mortal, no matter how powerful he is.
Samast, the founder of the famous Dragon Worship Cult, once collided head-on with the Lord of Dawn, and after a short confrontation, one of his bodies was killed by the god in an instant, and the powerful spell only scratched through the skin of the god's incarnation.
The gap between mortals and gods is so great that there are not many intelligent beings who dare to rebel against the absolute dominance of the gods.
"Relax, you have at least a few months to take advantage of. Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng suddenly paused, raised his head to look at the tunnel above, and soon found a figure looking at him. "Oh, we've got guests coming. ”
"Guest?!" Shimmer, who was recuperating on the ground, jerked his head back and flapped his wings in an attempt to fly to kill the intruder. ”
But before it could get off the ground, Zhang Cheng pressed it to the ground with one paw: "Quiet! Wait here, I'll talk to her. ”
The words just fell!
He spread his huge wings and soared directly into the air, slowly flying to the side of the cliff with the help of the updraft generated by the fire in the center of the earth, and greeted with a smile on his mouth: "Welcome, noble lady. ”
"Good day, mighty dragon of chaos - Ingro Castilli Mizirian. Erastro owes slightly.
Despite being surrounded by enemies, she maintained an elegant posture and did not panic at all.
"Can you tell me what you mean? Don't tell me you're here to talk to me. ”
"Of course not! Actually, I'm here to negotiate. Mithril Hall is home to the Warhammer family, and I want you to give it back to Bruno. ”
As he said this, Erasdr glanced back at the dwarf lying on the ground with an unknown fate.
It doesn't take to know that she wants to use this opportunity to secure a new and determined ally for herself......
