"Doruru, why is this guy here?"
Seeing a certain figure appearing in Black Rock City, Brin murmured twice in his heart.
It was an underground dwarf wearing a gorgeous human noble costume, but although the human costume was good-looking, it really did not match the dwarf. Not only did it not have that noble feeling, but it looked like a clown.
At this moment, this underground dwarf was hurriedly walking towards the Temple of Death in Black Rock City, accompanied by several personal guards. There was a trace of anxiety and worry on his face, as if he had encountered something urgent.
Underground gnome Dolulu.
He was Brin's classmate when he was studying in the underground city of Shanatar when he was young, the first heir of the most powerful underground dwarf family in the city-state of Shanatar, and the grandson of the current chief.
He is currently a diplomat in Sanatar and is said to be the next chief candidate.
And just like the relationship between the City of Blades and the City of Shanatar, although the two are classmates, they have never been pleasing to the eye.
After Brin became the chief of the City of Blades, it is said that Dolulu once made remarks in public, "With Brin's idiot's ability, he will definitely bring the City of Blades into decline" and so on...
Of course, in fact, because he saw that Brin was the first to become the chief of the dungeon, he was just a lemon.
And when Brin saw Dorulu, the other party saw him too.
The moment he saw Brin, I saw Doluru immediately put away his expression, and at the same time raised his nostrils to the sky, yin and yang sarcastically said:
"Yo! Isn't this Brin from the City of Blades?"
"I heard that the war in the City of Blades didn't start long, and many years of savings were spent, and nearly 10,000 sets of excellent equipment were owed to the surrounding city-states, and the reinforcements suffered heavy casualties. It seems... the chief executive of the City of Blades. , or not."
"I don't know how Lord Huobeu thought, but he passed the position of chief to such a guy..."
Hearing the sarcasm in the other party's words, Brin's expression sank.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart and replied:
"Better than just talking about people's trash behind their backs."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the tired and worried guards who followed Dororo, thinking of the geographic locations of the two city-states, plus the army arrangement of the Dark Alliance that he had already learned about... He already understood in his heart. what.
I saw him smile slightly and said:
"Lord Dolulu, you should do your own thing as soon as possible. I heard that Shanatar has also become the target of the Dark Alliance's attack. Now that we have repelled the enemy, maybe the opponent will change the target. In that case... expensive The city is in danger."
"Unfortunately... Our City of Blades suffered heavy losses in this war, and there is no way to support it."
"Humph!"
After listening to Brin's words, Doluru's face sank.
He took a deep look at Brin and walked towards the Temple of Death with his personal soldiers.
While staring at the other side's back, Brin shook his head slightly.
Looking at Doluru like this, I am afraid that, as Lord Huobeard guessed, the Dark Alliance did not choose to retreat, but changed its main attack direction and aimed at another underground city, Shanatar.
And Dolulu came, obviously asking for help.
In other words, although the elves and the Silent Alliance have signed a covenant, in fact, many underground cities of the Silent Alliance are still in a wait-and-see state when facing the elves.
On the one hand, it is because their current war pressure is not great, and on the other hand, they are very suspicious of the strength of these long ears.
That is, the City of Blades was besieged by a large army, and reinforcements were urgently needed to pull the elves, thus fully demonstrating their terrifying combat effectiveness.
And the successful defense of the City of Blades allowed other city-states to truly see the power of elves.
Of course, they still don't know enough about the details of the battle. All they know is that with the help of the elves, the City of Blades took only three days to retreat from the enemy...
And, City of Blades seems to have owed a lot of debts in this war...
Watching Doluru enter the Shrine of Death, a sneer appeared on the corner of Brin's mouth.
Ha ha.
City of Blades is in debt
I wonder how much Shanatar will owe!
He did change the agreement with the elves on behalf of the City of Blades, but that was only unilateral by the City of Blades.
The underground world was originally full of competition and chaos. Although the City of Blades and Shanatar were both members of the Silent Alliance, they were also full of competition with each other.
In this case, the City of Blades, which suffered a big loss, would naturally not think about other city-states.
Even if they are allies.
Speaking of which, it was this group of allies who raised prices and made a fortune when the City of Blades was besieged. Even the equipment owed by the City of Blades purchased from other city-states increased a lot...
Not to mention the extra reinforcements.
It's no wonder that the Silent Alliance can't do the Dark Alliance. Without unity, no matter how powerful it is, it can't exert its strength, not to mention that there is no strong enemy...
In fact, in the agreement between the Silent Alliance and the elves, the description of the equipment is only "one side of the alliance needs to provide the necessary equipment for the supporting elves".
Other details are all newly added to the dungeon during the specific implementation process.
In other words, the agreement of the City of Blades does not apply to other dungeons.
And now, seeing that it was Shanatar's turn to ask for help, Brin naturally wouldn't remind him of anything.
With the participation of elves, 80% of the city will be defended, but how much debt is owed is unknown.
80% will go bankrupt. After all, the City of Blades has not been captured, and the Dark Alliance will definitely invest more power to besiege Shanatar...
Brin thought to himself.
Thinking of the possible expression of Dolulu after the war in the future, Brin felt a little pleasure in his heart.
As a mature underground resident, he is also very vengeful.
Um…
When I go back this time, I will prepare well and see if I can make up for the lost wealth through the defensive battle of Shanatar.
That's right, as a qualified commercial dungeon chief, he's already thinking about how to take advantage of the gap in information to shear Shanatar's wool...
…
Dorulu is indeed here to ask for help.
After the army of the Dark Alliance gave up the siege of the City of Blades, they quickly shifted their main target to them. For a time, the pressure on the entire city doubled.
And there is a precedent for the success of the City of Blades before, so they naturally pointed to the elves for help.
The process of asking for help went very smoothly.
After losing the way to use the resurrection ability to brush equipment in the City of Blades, the regretful players received a request from the new city-state for help, and immediately became excited as if they had discovered a new continent.
So, Dolulu easily reached an agreement with the players.
Hmm... just like the City of Blades.
