Although he had agreed to work with Donn, Kloto was still sullen.

For an avid engineer, he can participate in new research work for the first time, but he can't join it because of his identity, and this pain can only be experienced by him.

Kloto suddenly asked, "By the way, Durandon, I heard that you have given the status of an honorary citizen of the Donn Dwarven Kingdom?" ”

Durandon nodded: "Of course, Mr. Donn is very kind to me!" If it weren't for his guidance, I wouldn't have been able to break through to the Grandmaster level now. ”

"Grandmaster?"

Kloto exclaimed: "At your age, it is indeed good to enter the grandmaster level, at least much stronger than your father." ”

"Of course!"

Durandon snorted, "My father is ...... Forget about him. ”

"What's wrong with me!?"

At this time, Brian's voice suddenly came, and then he and Alberon were seen pushing the door in, glaring at Durandon: "Talking bad about me behind my back again!?" ”

"Do I need to speak ill of you behind your back?"

Durandon glared back.

"You unfilial bastard son......"

"Okay, okay, Brian, he's right."

Tang En waved his hand to stop him: "Say bad things about you in front of your face, where is the use of saying it behind your back." ”

"Big brother even you protect him!?"

Alberon nodded: "Don is right. ”

Brian jumped to his feet in a hurry: "What!?" You're all bullying me, aren't you!? Klotto, you're just looking at it, aren't you!? ”

Cloto spread his hands: "Your family affairs, I can't talk about it. ”

"Humph!"

Seeing that no one supported him, Brian sat next to him with a muffled snort: "Let's have a big charcoal barbecue meat!" ”

"Me too."

Tang En looked at the two of them curiously: "What are you doing here?" How is it disgraced? ”

"Nothing. Just went and checked it out...... Well. It's nothing. ”

See Brian playing pantomime. Don didn't ask any more questions.

Klotto suddenly smiled and said, "Master Tangen, I don't know if you are willing to accept the status of an honorary national of the dwarf?" ”

"Of course I do, it's my pleasure."

Don En will not be stupid enough to refuse, with this identity, it will be more convenient to hire more dwarf employees in the future.

"In that case, take this."

Kloto gave Don a badge engraved with an intricate gear pattern: "This is the badge of honor of our Gnome Engineering Association, accept this and you will be a member of the association, and we can study it together if there is any problem in the future." ”

Don smiled and put away the badge: "It's an honor." ”

"You're really willing to pay for it!"

Durandon was surprised. Seeing that Tang En was puzzled, he explained: "The Gnome Engineering Association is similar to the dwarven king's council and the human nobles' council, and that badge is even available to many people in the dwarf kingdom. ”

"I see."

"In that case, I'll give you this by the way."

Durandon fumbled for a moment, and casually threw over a badge with a pattern of a hammer, a furnace, and an anvil, which Donn knew, a symbol of national status in the Dwarven Kingdom.

Durandon shrugged: "My badge is not as valuable as Cloto, just a status symbol. ”

Krotto laughed, "Don't listen to his nonsense, no foreigner in the Dwarven Kingdom has ever received this badge in hundreds of years." This in itself is already a manifestation of value. ”

Don smiled and accepted the badge.

After lunch, the afternoon wine festival is still lively. The entire Fort of the Blacksmiths was in a revelry.

Accompanied by Durandon and the others, Don visited the Furnace, the Armoury, the Mine, etc., and expressed his approval of the advanced forging technology of the dwarves, hoping that they would continue to persevere, strive to develop the forging process, and maintain the leading position with the latest, fastest, and strongest technology. At the same time, he expected the dwarven kingdom to maintain a peaceful development path for a hundred years, and then cordially met with the sober Groka, highly praised Groka's participation in Ellington, and promised that the alliance between Ellington and the dwarf kingdom would be unbreakable...... Wait, it seems to be a string show.

During the three-day wine festival, Donn fully felt the enthusiasm and heartiness of the dwarves, as well as the ...... A craze for alcohol.

With the free liquor, these guys are crazy, and they don't drink until they are unconscious!

Brian and Albron are like this, so you can imagine what happened to the other dwarves.

To Donn's surprise, Barley Baijiu didn't compete at the Wine Festival, but it was unanimously voted a tie for the first place by the dwarves who drank it - perhaps because Donn let them drink it happily?

Happily, what Donn and Durandon had discussed was passed very casually in the King's Council, which was so drunk that they didn't remember anything, and then passed unanimously.

"The development of the Black Swamp, the agreement to recruit dwarven staff, and the agreement to trade ore, all passed?"

Fiona listened to Donne's words, her face was incredulous, if these things were discussed in the noble council, I am afraid that there would be no one, two, or three discussions in ten days and a half months!

"That's right, if nothing else, I'll sign an agreement with Durandon when I go back later, and I'm going to take you with me, you're good at it."

"Take me there?"

Fiona was pleasantly surprised: "Then do I need to change my clothes?" Durandon is the dwarven king, right? Shouldn't you dress modestly to meet the king? ”

Solemn......

Don thought back to Durandon, and then said earnestly: "That's fine, really, trust me, don't have any too good illusions about Durandon, or your illusions will be shattered......"

"Alright then, I'll go draft an agreement now."

Fiona happily went to the study, this was the first time Don had taken her out, and it was to meet such a heavyweight, she felt valued. So it's a lot of fun.

It wasn't until she met Durandon that Fiona understood why Don would say that. Because when she met Durandon. The illusion of the dwarven king in my heart is really completely shattered......

This one...... The guy is Durandon, the king of the dwarven realm?

Even after meeting Durandon, Fiona still wondered if Don was playing tricks on her, because in every way, Durandon was no different from the dwarves next to her, no, even more ordinary.

"Your Majesty Durandon, this is an agreement I have drafted, please take a look at it. If we don't have any opinions, we can start signing. ”

Fiona handed the agreement to Durandon, which was completely understandable due to the fact that it was written in Rune.

Fiona's draft agreement didn't have any particularly harsh conditions, after all, the preferential treatment given by Durandon was too great, so this agreement only clarified the rights that Don had obtained, and that this right was allowed by the Dwarven Kingdom.

So after reading it, Durandon signed his name and stamped it without saying a word.

After signing the agreement, Duranton complained to Don En: "Really, you humans have a lot of affairs, and what kind of agreement do you need to get when you can get it done in one sentence, it's too much." ”

Don smiled slightly: "You should understand that humans are complex creatures. Unlike your people of the earth, humanity often changes its mind. I will also change myself because of the different circumstances I am in, so this agreement exists to restrain me, so that I will not be self-aggrandized. ”

"Whatever you want, I still trust you very much."

Durandon said casually: "The wine festival ends today, and Klotto plans to see you again before going back, as well as his assistants, are waiting for you in the reception room." ”

Don and Fiona followed Durandon to the reception room, and Krotto immediately got up to greet him: "Donne, my friend, I'm sorry I'm leaving, if I can, I really want to go to Ellington with you." ”

Seeing that the faces of those dwarfs changed again, Tang En smiled: "If it is a visit, you are welcome at any time, but I am afraid it is unlikely to be a permanent resident." ”

"Hmph, these guys can't live without me...... When will I grow up? ”

Klotto sighed: "Even if you go to visit, it's not that easy, it will take a month to go back and forth to you...... Alas, if only it were as convenient as coming to Fort Hammer. ”

Durandon laughed, "Do you want to build the subway to Ellington?" That's not a lot of work. ”

"Wait! What did you say? Subway!? ”

Don was stunned for a moment, another thing that he hadn't heard of in the game before!

Plandal's gnomes have actually gotten the subway out!?

"Yes," Durandon said with a big grin, "Klotto led his engineers, and our dwarven craftsmen joined forces, and it took a few months to connect the two cities, and build a passageway, in their words, that thing is called the Underground Railway, or simply the Metro, and it is very fast, so it is very convenient for them to come to Forge. ”

"Huh? That's a great idea! ”

Unexpectedly, Klotto was overjoyed when he heard Durandon's words: "If the subway can go to Ellington, I can go at any time!" How about we discuss? ”

Durandon pouted: "Don't talk nonsense, it took so long to dig the passage last time, and it may take many years to dig until Ellington this time, maybe by the time we dig it, Mr. Donn will be too old to walk...... Uh, forgive me, the lifespan of human beings is comparable to ours...... You know. ”

Don smiled knowingly and said, "The underground railway is too far, but the above-ground railway is certainly worth considering, in fact, I think it is really necessary to build an above-ground railway, because it can transport ore and asphalt." ”

"It's a good idea to transport by rail," Durandon was stunned, "but I'm afraid it's too late, right?" After all, the amount of work is not small......"

"There is a way to solve this, don't forget, although the dwarves are good at digging passages, but the efficiency is far less than the earth magic, if Don makes a move, or a few rune dwarves......"

Durandon suddenly realized, and Cloto was also happy: "In that case, then what are we waiting for? ”

"Don't worry, before I do that, I want to solve a communication problem."

A smiling Donn suddenly threw out a bombshell: "I want to build a teleportation array in Forgehammer Forges and Cogwheel City to connect with Ellington." ”

When the words landed, the audience was shocked! (To be continued.) )
