Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 527: Chapter 12: The Most Failed Butcher in History, Demigod at Your Service, Archibald’s Head Served on the Table (3)

”At the same time, you will receive the promise of the Son of the Mountains. When you sound the War Horn, thirty full units of the Silver Ancestor Legion will immediately rush to the aid of your territory. This horn can be sounded at least three times.”

”Lastly, you will also receive the protection of the Master of Runes. Our Supreme King of the Dwarves will personally forge a set of ’Unbreakable Oath’ Rune Armor for you, which surpasses Legendary Level armor and even approaches a Semi-Divine Artifact! It bears the ancestral rune stones of lost secret techniques. We will station thirty Rune Masters here permanently to help maintain this armor for you.”

”Of course, if you are not satisfied with these. Our Supreme King has already promised that we can gather the full power of the Dwarf Kingdom to fulfill one request you make, as long as it does not violate the principles and beliefs of our dwarves.”

High Gaucric then cut his palm and smeared the blood on Su Li’s forehead. Behind him, the fortress resounded with the thunderous blows of dwarf war drums, and the dwarven war song played, with countless dwarves solemnly swearing their oaths.

”From now on, the bloodline of the Bauhinia will flow in the ballads of all dwarf clans.”

Amidst the deep, valiant war songs of the dwarves, Su Li’s face instantly radiated a chilling intent, as he finally seized the chance for vengeance!

Without hesitation, he waved his hand and decisively said, ”I want nothing! Nor do I need the entire dwarf race to do anything for me, just a simple request that Your Excellency can fulfill immediately.”

Gaucric instantly grew anxious, even more agitated than Su Li himself, and he hurriedly said, ”My large friend, don’t rush to answer! This is the wealth the entire dwarf race is offering you. You cannot just spend it without a second thought. What could possibly be worth you giving up such immense wealth? If it’s something that truly only involves me, I can completely help you solve it without you sacrificing such a precious condition.”

This dwarf warrior is extremely passionate. Although he raised his voice, seeming crude and stubborn, he truly regarded Su Li as a close friend.

And yet, the murderous intent on Su Li’s face remained unwavering; he never held back overnight revenge!

The things the dwarves offered were indeed precious, but the completion of Legendary-level armor and such was too distant, and more importantly, by killing Archibald, he could immediately obtain a Legendary-level weapon.

For wealth, he had intel and was never in short supply. How much money is enough? As long as the territory is sufficient.

As for the Steam Tank, although powerful and precious, as long as he had enough Dwarf Oath Gold, he could purchase it directly from the high-level dwarf bastions.

A thousand years is too long; he only seizes the day! What he lacked most was time for vengeance, without delay!

Moreover, by killing Archibald, what he might obtain could be the entire Sulande Grand Prince’s Territory.

A one-time condition versus the permanent allegiance of a Prince’s Territory, he could clearly make the distinction.

So Su Li decisively said, ”My friend, thank you for your kindness. But this matter involves too much; you alone can’t bear such reckless consequences. Because my request is, please help me kill Duke of Sulande Province, Eternal Sword, Archibald immediately!”

”Hiss~” Gaucric suddenly shouldered his massive War Axe, taking a deep breath of cold air.

This was indeed a reckless action he couldn’t handle alone.

He is the most renowned demigod of the dwarves, a formidable presence in the Mortal World, essentially a symbol of the dwarves.

Without any proper reason, if he went to kill a human duke, it would inevitably cause diplomatic conflict at the highest level between the Empire and the dwarves, potentially shaking the sacred alliance between the two races for millennia!

For thousands of years, though humans and dwarves have had disputes, even resorting to swords at times, both races maintained a solid alliance, and until now, dwarves have never slain a human duke.

It’s necessary to understand that a duke nearly reaches the highest level of the Empire, with only the Electors above them.

Su Li’s request even made Gaucric’s firm belief waver, making him scrutinize this large fellow. Is he truly a friend of the dwarves? Or is he a follower of some treacherous Divine Chosen, sent to shake the unbreakable alliance between the two races?

This made him hesitate; if such a high-level conspiracy truly exists, he would rather forgo this ancient relic. After all, a symbolic treasure can never match the firm alliance between humans and dwarves.

Su Li directly took out the fragment of the Double-tailed Comet, pressing it to his chest, and said, ”We humans have never forgotten the doctrine of aiding dwarves. Do the dwarves intend to break their oath?”

”Double-tailed Comet fragment!” Gaucric’s eyes immediately widened, his expression shifting from hesitation to anger, his eyes burning with fury as he roared, ”Ancestor above! The bloodline of Gronni will never break its oath! Since you’ve proven yourself under the protection of the Human Emperor Redema, with the ultimate purity of humans, never corrupted, then we dwarves will surely abide by our promise to the large friend!”

With those words, he hefted his War Axe and turned, waving his towering back as he confidently said, ”Wait for me to bring back Archibald’s head as your drinking vessel! Even if it incites the Empire’s wrath, we dwarves will fulfill our promise to you!”
