Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Request

It's been a good time for Cardek lately.

After the Grey Dwarves were relieved of the danger, a vein of silver was found in the mines, and the continuous production of silver from it also made the position of the Archon of the Grey Dwarves of Kadek more and more secure. Not only did he use his abundant funds to make a few guys who always played against him "disappear forever", but he even held banquets from time to time to show off his wealth. Now the whole of Brandon Stone now knows the name of the Archon of Cardik's generosity, and the wealth of his men.

Now immersed in the bustling feasts every day, receiving praise and praise from others, he is now the most famous ruler of Brandon Stone. Nothing is more important to Kadek than this.

If Kadek was upset, it was the tall obsidian tower just outside the city, which was like a spike in Kadik's throat, making it impossible for him to relax. Although he made a deal with the necromancer, who knows what will turn out in the end? Although so far, the two sides are still safe, but Kadek is still very uneasy. He hoped that the necromancer would suddenly leave one day and never come back, but he could only think about it behind his back.

"Lord Archon Kadek?"

The call of his attendants brought back to his thoughts, and he turned his head to look at the golden hall and the lively banquet in front of him, the smell of barbecue and wine came to his face, and the loud singing and praise of the gray dwarves sounded so ethereal, as if they were a scene in a dream.

"What's the matter?"

Kadek visibly saw his entourage's eyes sweep in the direction of the Obsidian Tower, then silently retracted, but he didn't say anything more. The tower had become a secret to the residents of Brandon Stone, and of course Kadek knew that many gray dwarves had doubts about the necromancer, but they chose to remain silent due to the necromancer's strength and relationship with him.

Maybe he should have let the rumors out in private that his relationship with the necromancer wasn't as close as they thought? If that's the case, will someone help you make a choice? Maybe we should give a little help to someone who doesn't like the mage?

“……… That's right, the mage's messenger is waiting for you outside........."

"What?!"

Just as Kadek was listening to the report of his entourage and wandering around the world, the words of the other party suddenly made Kadek stunned, he snorted softly, and then hurriedly subconsciously covered his mouth and looked around vigilantly. Luckily, the noise of the gray dwarves drowned out his screams. Aside from a few drunken gray dwarves in the vicinity, who barely looked this way, no one else noticed the Archon's anomaly. They're holding their glasses high and yelling around the table.

“………… When did it come. ”

It was only then that Kadek breathed a sigh of relief, and then he pulled his entourage aside and asked in a low voice.

"Just now, she said she had something important to discuss with you."

"Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Hearing this, Kadek stomped his foot and slapped the hapless man in the face, and then he immediately turned around and hurried out of the hall where the feast was taking place.

When Kadek reached the gate, he quickly saw the dark elf standing at the bottom of the stairs, wrapped in a cloak. She stood in the shadows at the entrance of the hall, as if she had become one with the shadows. If it weren't for Kadek's careful look, I'm afraid I wouldn't really be able to see her.

Damn the Dark Elves............

With a smile on his face, Kadek smiled warmly and walked over to Werna.

"Hello, it's been a long time, Miss Vilna. I really didn't expect you to come, it's really a disappointment, please forgive me......... By the way, we're having a banquet, would you like to come along? I'm sure you'll be warmly welcomed. ”

"There's no need for that, Mr. Kadek."

Verna was still the same cold look, and she didn't know if she had a problem with the Grey Dwarf Archon, or with Jenn who sent her here, or both.........

"I'm here to make a request to you on behalf of the Master."

"Request?"

In a certain way, this is not much different from an "order" -- and it may even be worse.

"Yes, Master Mage originally wanted to come in person, but in the end he decided to send me to talk to you."

"So, what does Master Mage need me to do for him?"

Hearing this, Kadek also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if the necromancer really came to the door, then no matter how rude his request was, he would probably have to nod and agree, otherwise Kadek could be sure that he would definitely be cleaned up by the other party. Then he would lose all his face in front of his own people! But then again, even if you nod and agree to the other party's request, wouldn't it be just as embarrassing?

Thinking of this, Kadek couldn't help but glance behind him, and the louder the singing came from the hall, it was obvious that the gray dwarves were already drunk. But that's fine, when they wake up tomorrow, the events of tonight will be forgotten, and no one will remember where they went and who they did.

"That's right."

Verna didn't care about the look on Kadek's face, but continued to speak to herself.

"I think you know, Mr. Cardik, that there's a group of goblins not far from Brandon Rock."

"Of course I do."

Hearing this, Kadek's face couldn't help but be much darker. Those damn goblins were the biggest headache for Cardik, and they relied on their familiarity with the terrain to roam around the periphery of Brandon Rock all day long, and even sometimes went to rob caravans and harass their customers, which made Brandon Rock a big disgrace.

Although Kadek also organized several sieges against the goblins, they all ended in failure. These damn goblins don't mention anything else, and their ability to escape is top-notch. The gray dwarves didn't dare to go too far from the city, so they could only helplessly watch the bastards show off their might outside their sight. It can be said that these goblins, although not very powerful, are quite annoying. It wasn't for Kadek to try to catch them all, but for the gray dwarves, it wasn't an easy task.

"If Mr. Cardik is willing, then Master Mage can help you with this little trouble -- of course, Master Master needs Mr. Cardik's cooperation."

I see.

Hearing this, Kadek finally understood what Vilna meant. In other words, the necromancer was going to take out the goblins, but he needed Brandon's involvement. But what Kadek couldn't figure out was that a necromancer didn't need assistance at all, as long as there were enough undead creatures, then he could get a good job, right? So what's the use of having these people on your own?

"So what do you want?"

Of course, Kadek would not think that the other party was really so kind, even on the surface, I am afraid that no one would do such voluntary labor. And now, a necromancer actually ran to help him solve his troubles? If you want to say that there is nothing greasy in this, you can't believe it when you kill Kadek.

"It's simple."

Obviously, Verna had been prepared for this, and when she heard Kadek's inquiry, she only raised her eyebrows, and then immediately opened her mouth to answer.

"Master Mage hopes to be able to get ownership of that land after destroying those goblins."

I see!

Hearing this, Kadek suddenly realized what the other party meant.

In general, if those goblins are eliminated, then Brandon Stone City will definitely expand further. As a "idealistic, ambitious, and visionary" Grey Dwarf Archon, Kadek naturally hopes that Brandon's Stone City will grow in his hands, and with such a feat, he can also have the title of "Sage" and place his own stone statue in the Hall of Heroes. It's just that because of the messing up of those goblins before, there was no way to do it. And if these goblins are eliminated, then the construction of the area around Brandon Stone City will not be a big problem.

And the mage was obviously aware of this, or he was already in the location of the goblin, so he made this request. After all, if he really helped Brandon Stone City eliminate those goblins, then it was only natural that he would be paid. The Grey Dwarves are cunning, but they are still very trustworthy when faced with opponents of equal strength.

However, hearing this, Kadek was also a little hesitant. He didn't know where the goblin's lair was, and what if there was some priceless vein or something like that.........? Thinking of this, the Grey Dwarf Archon suddenly smiled and asked.

"That......... Miss Verna? I'd like to ask ......... What's there........."

"Make no mistake."

Before Kadek could finish speaking, Verna coldly interrupted the other party.

"Master Mage chose it because it was a great place for him to experiment with magic, and it was as simple as that. There's nothing you want there, and if you don't, forget it. ”

"Of course it's fine!"

Hearing that it was something to do with magic, Kadek immediately didn't bother to bother, the gray dwarves have always been insulated from magic, as long as they weren't gems and veins, then other things were no different from waste to them. Thinking of this, Kadek immediately let go of his feelings of gain and loss, and then looked at Verna with a smile on his face.

"Please tell Master Mage that we in Brandon Stone City have always been committed to protecting the safety of the caravans passing along the way, and we are bound to win this group of goblins, and we will definitely send the most elite troops to assist the Master Mage in fighting these monsters that endanger the safety of passing caravans!"

Kadek's expression was so stern and serious, if there was another light on it, then it would look like a paladin. But the next moment, he immediately revealed his true colors.

"It's just......... Hehehe, Miss Verna, you also know that we don't have enough manpower at the moment, and it will probably take some time to gather enough elite troops............"

“……………”

This time, Verna didn't say anything, but shook her hand with a cold face, and the next moment, a rectangular iron box was thrown in front of Kadek with a "bang". Startling the gray dwarf archon, he glanced at Verna in confusion, then reached out to open the box, and when he saw what was inside, Kadek's eyes immediately sparkled.

"It's ..............."

In front of the eyes of the gray dwarf archon, there were two glittering long swords, they were simple and exquisitely made, and the swords were carved with rich textures, and a touch of magic flashed through them, and at a glance they were very valuable creations.

"This is the stuff of the thief who dared to invade the mage-sama's realm a few days ago."

Heaven and earth can tell, Verna is not lying.

"It's not much use to us, but Master Mage knows that the Grey Dwarves have always loved collecting all kinds of weapons, so let me send them to you, and if you're interested, please take them."

"This ......... How embarrassing is this..............."

Although Kadek said this, his subordinates were not slow, and almost instantly, Kadek closed the lid of the tin box and picked it up. You know, this is a special magic weapon that has been processed with surface technology, and this kind of collectible is very rare for gray dwarves!

"Rest assured, Miss Verna. It is the duty and responsibility of Brandon Stone City to protect the trade routes, please take me to tell the mage that in two days, within two days we will definitely organize a most elite army and work with the mage to destroy those abominable bugs!! ”
