Dwarfs and underground creatures have never had much of a presence in the battle for supremacy on the main plane.
The dwarfs were also one of the powerful races in the main plane back then. However, during the great expansion movement of mankind, they suffered many defeats one after another. In the end, they could no longer hold on. With the demise of the last kingdom, they sadly withdrew from the stage of competition for hegemony. .
At that time, most of the dwarfs on the main plane left with the dwarf gods and retreated to other worlds. Only a few remained and became wanderers on the vast land.
Some of them live scattered in cities and villages and have become ethnic minorities; some have built small underground villages in the wilderness and live a secluded life.
Not to mention those underground creatures, they are known mainly because of stories like "Dungeon Adventure". For example, a certain explorer discovered an underground ruins and found some treasures; or a certain expedition team discovered a group of underground monsters and killed them to obtain certain benefits... and so on.
Apart from these stories, the races living underground are no longer well known to the residents above ground, as if they do not exist.
In fact, they've always been there. Not only here, but also with its own civilization and its own gods.
This time the orc gods contacted various pantheons to besiege the human pantheon, and of course they found their gods. Originally, these gods did not intend to participate in this war that had little meaning to them, but when they learned that the main god of the orc pantheon was driving the kingdom of god to collide with the kingdom of the human pantheon, they launched a suicide attack. After both sides suffered losses, they changed their minds.
If God does not take it, you will suffer the consequences. Now that the opportunity has arrived, it would be a pity not to give it a try!
So they secretly contacted dwarves and gnomes who were also good at underground activities to discuss the issue of joint attack.
The dwarves rejected this plan. This group of short and strong men who called themselves the "Sons of the Rock" hated intrigues and intrigues. Even if they wanted to fight, they would fight their enemies openly. But the dwarfs hit it off with the underground creatures, and both sides immediately took action and concentrated their forces towards the Griffin Principality.
Underground on the main plane, the conditions suitable for digging vary from place to place. Among them, the most suitable place for digging is the great plain in the eastern part of the Griffin Principality.
This area was also one of the main territories of the dwarf country at that time. It was the hometown that the dwarfs dreamed of. They had many arrangements here to prepare for the opportunity to come back in the future.
Now, it’s time for these arrangements to come into play!
Relying on these arrangements and the strength of various underground clans, both sides assembled a quite large army. They did not rush to take action, but waited patiently until the orcs opened a third battlefield, humans were overwhelmed, and the Griffin Principality sent out all the troops on the surface, and then suddenly launched an attack.
Taking advantage of the darkness, a vast and powerful army rushed out from the underground and marched straight towards the capital of the Griffin Principality.
The Griffin Principality, with its empty defenses, was unable to put up any decent resistance at all, not to mention that their capital was not a fortified city with iron walls in the first place. As a result, they were defeated by the underground coalition forces in one go. When the sky was dimming, the heads of at least a thousand officials and nobles, including the Griffin Duke, who had not had time to escape, were already hung on the city wall, one by one like decorations. , hung a long piece.
According to the plan of the underground creatures, they want to kill all the people in the capital and conduct a large-scale blood sacrifice to increase the power of their gods. But the dwarfs persuaded them, and the reason was very simple - it was nothing to capture the capital and kill officials, nobles and soldiers, but if they started a massacre of civilians, they were sure they could deal with the Mask of the Void who was angry.
Even if Mask of the Void doesn't take action himself, it will still be a big trouble for the gods, divine envoys and priests under his command to take action!
The leaders of the underground race discussed for a while and felt that they really could not resist the mighty jellyfish god, so they had to regretfully give up the plan of large-scale blood sacrifice.
But this does not mean that they let go of the people in the capital. Under their drive, the plundered refugees were driven out of the capital in embarrassment and cried, and went to nearby cities to seek assistance.
As for the fighting and killing that took place, Sui Xiong did not take any action.
Although... he looked angry.
"This war has gotten a little out of control at this point." He said to Wall. "If this continues, I'm afraid the war will spread to the entire main plane."
"No way..." The God of Knowledge, who had successfully predicted the misfortune of the human pantheon before, was shocked and said with some anxiety, "That's it for here. Will there be a war in the south?"
Sui Xiong shook his head and stared at the southern land, his eyes full of worry.
Wall didn't understand the power of the war field, so he couldn't see the clues. But in Sui Xiong's eyes, the war clouds over the Great Swamp were getting thicker and thicker. It seemed that the natives of the swamp were also ready, but they just didn't know who they were going to attack.
However, judging from the slowly gathering war clouds over the Thunder Principality, it seems that the target of the swamp natives' attack is still them after all.
On the other side of the Ancient Forest, war clouds are also gathering. The war clouds are connecting with the war clouds over the Dwarf Kingdom deep in the Broken Cloud Mountains. It is feared that the two sides will unite to attack the Kingdom of Thousand Springs.
This is not surprising. For a long time, the Kingdom of Thousand Springs has been invading the dwarves and elves. The two sides can be said to be feuding. Now that the dwarves and elves have had the opportunity, how could they not take revenge
As long as the Kingdom of Thousand Springs is defeated with the help of this war, both dwarves and elves can live in peace for many years in the future.
The only place where there are no war clouds is the Mystic Tower Federation in the south and the Dhaka Business Alliance next to it. The strength of these two countries is another matter. The main problem is that they don't have many enemies around them.
The only ones they could call enemies were probably the elves of the ancient forest in the north. However, neither country's development or invasion of the Ancient Forest is very large. Under the current circumstances, I believe that the elves will still concentrate their efforts to find trouble in the Kingdom of Thousand Springs.
"It's really... there's a fire all over the place!"
Sui Xiong muttered and shook his head helplessly.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at the sky again.
In the void illuminated by the ball of light formed after the collision of the two divine kingdoms, a large number of gods were still searching carpet-like for any clues that the human gods might have left behind.
"Where have the human gods gone? Hiding like this is not an option after all. Jump out early and let everyone have a good fight. The victorious ones stay and the defeated ones get out. Isn't it the easiest thing to do? Let the mortals go crazy for nothing. What’s the point of bleeding?”
