"Uh-ohhhhhhhhh!"

As the dwarf king Glenn roared with all his strength, the beautiful sword in his hand bloomed instantly like a dense flower cluster.

The battle situation suddenly changed drastically. Lu Xidong felt a strong wind blowing in front of him. It was the sword energy of the dwarf Wang Glenn.

He is worthy of being the strongest hero of his clan. His gorgeous fighting skills possess powerful power, and he is about to crush Lu Xidong in an instant.

He dodged backward slightly, trying to reduce the surging murderous aura, but unfortunately he failed.

The dwarf king's momentum continued unabated and he advanced.

Oops! As soon as the idea came to his mind, Lu Xidong had no choice but to swing his sword subconsciously.

Keng——! A clear voice sounded.

The outcome is decided.

He successfully interrupted King Glenn's combo, although Lu Xidong knew that it was the opponent who stopped attacking at the end.

Otherwise, he might die under the sword of the dwarf king. Just when he was confused, the king in front of him burst out laughing.

"Heh, heh heh... Hahahahahaha! You caught my sword!"

"Yes... yes. Since you admit that I caught it, you should count me as the winner, right?"

"Of course, that's it, and it doesn't look like you're evil."

Dwarf King Glenn smiled generously, put away his sword, turned around and walked back to the throne.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xidong breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground. This battle consumed more energy than imagined.

And the final twist was so strange. Lu Xidong still hadn't figured out what was going on. Why did the dwarf king, who came in overwhelming numbers, weaken his own power at the last moment, as if he had tacitly agreed to use his sword? , crashed into the sword in Lu Xidong's hand

He didn't understand, and other outsiders didn't understand either. The dwarves present seemed to be very unhappy, and voices of dissatisfaction could be heard from all over the palace.

"This demon actually took the king's sword?"

"That's ridiculous, how is this possible!"

"Could it be Wang Fangshui?"

And so on, the dwarves in the palace were whispering. If it wasn't for the king's face, some of them might have rushed up and challenged Lu Xidong.

"Shut up! You are so shameless! How dare you say that the king is letting go? This is too arrogant! Even my eyes can't catch the king's movements. Are you saying that you can see everything clearly?"

"—Well said. Your Majesty is not letting go at all. The title of 'Sword Master' is not in vain. The purpose of this time is not to kill you to death. The point is to understand the nature of the opponent. We are not here to make enemies. You guys, don’t forget it.”

The dwarf knight in pure white and the dwarf warrior in black armor spoke one after another. The people who were noisy just now shut their mouths in an instant.

I remember Dorum mentioned before that Drufo, the leader of the Knights of the Dwarf King's Guards, usually wears a white knight uniform and never leaves the Dwarf King's side; the black-clothed and heavily armored warrior Ruodepan is in charge of the free city Zenda. The infantry regiment is also the supreme commander of the dwarf army. It is said that it is the most powerful faction second only to King Glenn.

It seems that it is these two people. Their prestige among the dwarves is quite high. They should be second only to the dwarf king Glenn. At this moment, even the two of them spoke. The dwarves who were criticized by their words all looked ashamed. They all closed their mouths.

After all, there are still a few people who can clearly see King Glenn's sword moves. They are just blindly superstitious about their king's strength and don't want to admit that their idol has lost.

Lu Xidong could understand their mood, and he didn't mind their criticism, because he really should have lost.

It was King Glenn who released the water at the last moment, although Lu Xidong still couldn't figure out why he released the water.

But at least the purpose of this trip was achieved. The dwarves of the free city Zenda temporarily recognized the existence and legitimacy of the monster town Iserlohn in the Forbidden Forest.

King Glenn also offered to sign a treaty and conclude an alliance—

"If you become the leader of this forest, we will be on an equal footing. If you control all of this vast forest, your future resources and financial resources will definitely be better than ours. My spies have already described it to me. Your town is beautifully built, and it also uses the excellent and rational construction technology of our dwarves to open a passage in the forest. Although it is not completed yet, it will one day become a hub city for trade. It is an indispensable A new trade route. So, do you want to consider forming an alliance with us?"

The dwarf king Glenn, who returned to the throne, spoke to Lu Xidong in an equal tone for the first time and stared at him seriously.

Is that what it looks like? In other words, Free City Zenda and the dwarves have recognized Lu Xidong and the others as a force. Should they be treated equally

"Is it okay? Saying this is equivalent to admitting that we - admitting that this monster group is a kingdom, is that what it means?" Lu Xidong confirmed in disbelief.

"Of course. And you seem to be mistaken, so let me make it clear to you first: this matter is also good for our dwarves. It is not out of goodwill, but for each other's benefit!"

King Glenn said this with a smile, and then started to make conditions with an extremely serious attitude.

His conditions are as follows.

First, sign a non-aggression treaty and the two families must live in peace in the future;

Second, no matter which company encounters a crisis, they must help each other and help each other;

Third, the town of Iserlohn will start building a road to the free city of Zenda, and the two sides will trade at fair prices;

Fourth, ensure that the dwarves are safe in the Forbidden Forest. Similarly, the monsters in Iserlohn Town can freely enter and exit the free city of Zenda with their passes;

Fifth, the dwarves can also provide the latest technology for the development of monsters. Accordingly, Lu Xidong and the others must provide various resources of equal value (agreed by both parties) in return.

There are several other details, but for now, Dwarf King Glenn has basically proposed these five important clauses.

It is appropriate to conclude a non-aggression pact, and it is also appropriate to ensure personal safety.

As for helping each other, it seems that nothing like that has happened yet.

Although Zenda is located in an important place, connected to many small countries and the Eastern Empire, these countries should not be stupid enough to find trouble with neutral and powerful free cities, so at least they don't need Lu Xidong's help yet.

It is normal for the two countries to establish friendly relations and build roads to connect them. If trade is to be done, road preparation is the most important issue.

However, the other party now proposes that all expenses must be borne by Lu Xidong, which was originally difficult to accept.

It can be seen from this that King Gazel is very good at calculating, and is not a fuel-efficient lamp. However, negotiations also depend on the respective situations of both parties. Based on the fact that the dwarves will also provide the latest developed technology (of course it is not free, but it is definitely better than Dorum). It would be much more convenient for them to do their own research, right?), Lu Xidong felt that this was not unacceptable.

The most important thing is that according to common sense, it is not easy for monsters in the forest to be recognized.

In Lu Xidong's original imagination, it would take at least ten years to slowly take time to run the business. I am afraid that in the end, he would have to use force to gain recognition from other races.

But now, Free City Zenda, which has huge financial resources and technology, wants to back itself up, and its value cannot be measured in terms of money.

An unexpected good opportunity came, what else could Lu Xidong have to hesitate

He couldn't help but tremble with excitement, but of course he was trying to suppress it, not wanting to be looked down upon by the other party.

"I'm happy to agree to this."

Lu Xidong forced a calm tone and agreed to King Glenn's proposal.

"Okay then, Demon King Lu Xidong of the Forbidden Forest, now I, Glendegas, represent all the dwarves of the free city of Zenda, and I will form an alliance with you."

With that said, the dwarf Wang Glenn ordered his men to quickly draft the relevant documents, and even arranged a celebration banquet, preparing to warmly entertain Lu Xidong and his party.

They will be allies from now on, and they need to be closer to each other. This is the reason given by King Glenn. Ruodepan, the commander of the infantry regiment, also extended an invitation to Lu Xidong to visit the dwarf military camp.

Everything is moving towards the best outcome, and Lu Xidong's mission trip seems to be coming to a successful end.

Unexpectedly, King Glenn made a request at this time, which gave Lu Xidong a headache.

The other party's request is: "Currently, you only control about 30% of the forest area. I hope to develop closer cooperation with the actual owner of the Forbidden Forest. Please work hard to expand your sphere of influence, right? His Highness Demon King Lu Xidong?" "

Yes, Lu Xidong can only control the western region of the Forbidden Forest now, and there is a wider area that is still in the hands of others. Does he want to issue a military order himself

Lu Xidong suddenly became suspicious of the dwarf king's intentions, but from his own perspective, he had to expand his sphere of influence.

Now that you have the support of the dwarves and the free cities, what are you waiting for

Lu Xidong's heart suddenly ignited another raging flame...
