Chapter 546 Chapter 86

After receiving Sui Xiong’s positive reply, the Rune God ran away happily. It seemed that he was going to return to the Kingdom of Dwarf Gods located in the Eternal Mountain and discuss with all gods about cooperation with Sui Xiong.

Sui Xiong felt very happy about the Rune God’s behavior.

But when he thought about it for a while, he still felt a little puzzled. What kind of value did this kind of armor have? Was it worth the dwarf gods jumping out at this urgent time to corporate with him?

On Earth, when one did not know about internal affairs, they could ask Baidu for answers, and when they did not know about foreign affairs, they could turn to Google for help. Sui Xiong now had neither Baidu nor Google, but he had many knowledgeable friends.

The God of Water Elements was the oldest and had seen much, while the God of Pleasure was the one who had many friends and knew a lot of things.

It seemed that this matter had nothing to do with history, so Sui Xiong had to ask the God of Pleasure, Javier.

Javier listened carefully to Sui Xiong’s narration and asked for some details. He nodded while listening and finally laughed.

“No problem,” he said. “My friend, the dwarf gods’ sincerity to you is beyond a doubt, and their need for your new armor is also apparent.”

“But why?”

“That’s a long story.” Javier laughed and brought out tables, chairs and drinking vessels. He filled each other with wine and said, “We can talk while drinking.”

As a brave, fighting race, the dwarves were very powerful. However, they still had many deficiencies in the field of spellcasting because they had poor control over magic. As was known to all, spellcasters were indispensable in wars, especially in large-scale wars. If an army lacked sufficient spellcasters, it would suffer great losses.

In order to solve this problem, dwarves put forward an interesting idea. Since they could not make a large number of spellcasters emerge from their race, they would study how to attack the spellcasters!

Based on this idea, they eventually developed a special kind of army-the Dwarf Breakers.

The Dwarf Breakers also belonged to the Rune Mages. They wore heavy armor that had undergone special processing and had strong resistance toward magic. What’s more, they could also cast some spells toward their enemies, and they could even cast several important spells relying on runes at major moments. That was powerful enough for them to deal with various situations.

With the help of rune magic, once the Dwarf Breakers entered the battlefield, they would rush into the enemy’s formation and disrupt the enemy’s formation. Or they would directly attack the enemy’s spellcasters so that the spellcasters, even if they were lucky enough to escape, could not provide help for their comrades, thus dragging their enemies into a “no magic assistance” situation.

In this case, dwarves were not afraid of any enemy!

But the Dwarf Breakers also had their fatal flaws—they could not resist the Great Disintegration Spell.

Indeed, the Great Disintegration Spell was a high-level spell, and anyone who used it must at least be an advanced mage. In mid and low-level battles, dwarves did not have to worry about someone using the Great Disintegration Spell.

But, there was also no need for the Dwarf Breakers to fight in mid and low-level battles. Once the Dwarf Breakers, whose numbers could only be counted by “ten,” were sent to the war, it had to be an important, large-scale

war.

In such a critical war, it was not difficult for the enemy to gather up several advanced mages and used the Great Disintegration Spell.

The Great Disintegration Spell could be used on areas to form a powerful magic area. For the Dwarf Breakers who had worn heavy armor, they would die immediately if they were hit by the Great Disintegration Spell. Even if they only stood in the area within the reach of the Great Disintegration Spell for a few seconds, they would suffer great losses. They could resist the damage of the Great Disintegration Spell with their strong physique and divine blessings because the Great Disintegration Spell was not very harmful to creatures. However, their armor could not resist the powers of the Great Disintegration Spell. The special armor that could resist most magic would be completely damaged and disintegrated.

Without armor, the Dwarf Breakers were nothing more than a group of unarmed, fierce fighters. Both runes and weapons would be destroyed by the Great Disintegration Spell.

The Dwarf Kingdom was located in the middle of the Mountain of Broken Clouds, bordering the Eagle Kingdom, the Duchy of Griffon, the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs and the Ancient Forest. In the past, they fought with the elves, and when the Elf Race declined, they fought against the human race that came after them. The Dwarf Breakers had made outstanding contributions in previous wars, but they also suffered heavy losses. After every war, less than one-tenth of them would come back alive.

What’s worse, with the improvement of magic technology, the difficulty of using the Great Disintegration Spell was also reduced. In the past, only mages who were close to the legendary level could use the Great Disintegration Spell. Now, the Great Disintegration Spell had been specially studied because there was an increasing need in wars. In the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs, many special magic arrays and equipment appeared so that mages who had just stepped into the advanced level could successfully use the Great Disintegration Spell.

With the popularization of the Great Disintegration Spell, the Dwarf Kingdom was losing ground in high-end battlefields. Their fighters were brave and not afraid of their enemies and sacrifice, but their courage alone was not enough. Over the past hundred years, most parts of the Dwarf Kingdom had been occupied by the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs, and the number of dwarf warriors who had been sacrificed was exponential.

Shortly before Sui Xiong visited the Kingdom of Dwarf Gods, the Dwarf Kingdom had fought fiercely with the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs. The Dwarf Kingdom was defeated, and even the current dwarf king died in the battle. He was one of the Dwarf Breakers who had led more than twenty Dwarf Breakers to try to break through the Mage Corps of the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs. Unfortunately, they died after being hit by the Great Disintegration Spell.

In fact, if it hadn’t been for the Main Plane surging, the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs would have launched another attack on the Mountain of Broken Clouds.

Anyways, their expansion targets were these two places—the Mountain of Broken Clouds or the Ancient Forest. If they wanted to occupy the Mountain of Broken Clouds, they had to beat the dwarves, and if they wanted to occupy the Ancient Forest, they had to beat the elves.

Of course, the dwarf gods were worried about this, but they had no way to stop the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs. Indeed, they could promote more priests and Sacred Warriors, but their spellcasters could not win against the human race.

They could also try to fight with those spellcasters of the human race, but they had to face the human gods in person. Whether it be the God of Revenge or the God of Light, they were not sure if they could fight back.

In this way, the dwarf gods only had one choice left-leave the Main Plane and migrate to other worlds with the people that believed in them. Like many races who had lost in the struggle for hegemony in the Main Plane, they had to find a world far away from the Main Plane and live in peace, like a wounded beast tonguing its wounds silently.

However, migrating to other worlds meant that their race would lose the abundant materials in the Main Plane. Studies had already shown that if races who had lived in the Main Plane for a long time settled in other planes, not only would their fertility decline, but their population would also deteriorate slowly.

In other words, migrating to other worlds was like long-term suicide.

Of course, the situation of the Dwarf Kingdom had not reached rock bottom. Depending on the location of the Mountain of Broken Clouds, they could still entangle with the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs for a period of time, maybe hundreds or thousands of years… However, if they could not solve the problem of resisting the Great Disintegration Spell, they would only die sooner or later.

Perhaps the dwarves could also learn from the pygmies. They could abandon their country and spread their people to other places in the Main Plane. But that was not in line with the dwarves’ cultures, traditions and values. They did not want to do what the pygmies had done unless they really had no other way to escape.

“In such circumstances, they see your special armor.” Javier drank all the wine in his cup and then picked up the bottle only to find it empty. He sighed regretfully. “Of course, they would pay much attention to this kind of armor. It can resist the Great Disintegration Spell, that will make up for the shortcoming of the Dwarf Breakers, and help the Dwarf Kingdom resist the invasion of the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs!

“In my opinion, the Rune God only talks about cooperation with you, which is obviously a little conservative. Maybe next time, the Dwarf gods will discuss with you the design and manufacture of this armor in detail and finally complete some samples… When the samples are finished, it’s time for them to make a real bet!”

Javier laughed and stood up. “At that time, I’m afraid it’s not as simple as cooperation. I guess they would form an alliance you.”

Sui Xiong thought about it and frowned.

Dwarves and humans were at war, and it was obvious that all the human gods stood behind the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs who had launched an attack on Mountain of Broken Cloud.

Did he really want to support the dwarf gods and fight against the human gods?

He hesitated a little.

After saying goodbye to Javier who had run out of wine, Sui Xiong was lost in thought.

He thought it over and wondered what he should do. But he was never able to make up his mind. After careful consideration, he decided to bring together the core members of his church to discuss the matter. Collective discussion may not be a particularly good way, but at least it would not be particularly bad either.

The high positions of the church of the Void Mask soon gathered together after receiving Sui Xiong’s Oracle and held a temporary meeting

During the meeting, Sui Xiong elaborated on the causes and consequences of the incident and then asked for everyone’s opinions.

“It’s not worthwhile.” The Archbishop, Leon Igor, shook his head first. “The dwarf gods obviously can’t beat the human gods. It’s not wise to offend the human gods in order to attract the dwarf gods…”

“In fact, it’s not impossible,” the knight leader, Gerald said. “Our majesty’s strength is enough to bridge the gap between the dwarf gods and the human gods, plus our allies… Then the pros and cons will be reversed.”

“But that’s going to cost a lot,” said Rhode. His hair had turned gray and he could not walk fast due to old age. “It will cost a lot!”

The chief mage, Satan, laughed and said, “The price is not a problem. The question is, is the friendship and alliance of the dwarves worth the price we will pay?”

“In fact, that’s not bad either. Over the years, although Our Majesty is very strong, we lack sufficient deterrence in the Church of the Void Mask and the Northwest Republic. If we can take advantage of this opportunity to show our deterrence, there will be less troubles for us in the future,” Palin said. He would take over Satan’s job as the leader of the Mage Corps because Satan was receiving training.

Many people were impressed by Palin’s statement, and Steele, the head of the medical team, immediately supported Palin’s idea. She said straightforwardly that it was necessary for the Church of the Void Mask to fight in order to show its strength. Fighting would not only kill people but also cause great damages. If wars were unavoidable, it was better to fight in other people’s countries than to fight at their own doors. Even if something was damaged, they would not feel it because it would be other people’s goods that were damaged.

Felix, the Great Governor of the Northwest Republic, also agreed with this view. In order to show the great strength of the Church of the Void Mask, they had to find an opponent to fight. Running to the Mountain of Broken Clouds to fight with the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs would not damage the infrastructures of the Northwest Republic, but the supply pressure would be greater.

The espionage chief instructor Easter, who had just joined the core circle, looked at the issue from another angle and said, “Our Republic is a country that advocates openness and tolerance, which makes the races of the inhabitants of our country very chaotic. Whether it be Orcs or humans, dwarves or pygmies, even organs from other worlds or demon beasts-as long as they are kind, we welcome them to join our country and become our brothers and sisters. Our national policy conflicts with the guiding ideology of the human race, dwarf race and even any other race on the continent. So I think we should help the relatively weak races to shape our positive image. As for the powerful races… Anyway, the contradiction between them is inevitable. Even if we compromise and give in now, will we really change our national policy in the future to cater to their preferences?”

This statement made many people fall into deep thought, and even Sui Xiong had not taken this into account. For a time, everyone was thinking silently.

After a while, Leon sighed and said, “Helping the weak to fight against the strong will cost a lot, really, a lot. I admit that you’re right. Even if we don’t help the dwarves, sooner or later, as the human deities gradually become hegemonic, they will pose a threat to the Republic. But… Anyway, at least there are Orcs in front of us who will be attacked by the human race first. We don’t have to pay the price in such a hurry!”

“Now we have a good opportunity,” Easter said. “Now the price will be relatively small.”

“You’ve been talking for a long time, but I don’t quite understand what you are talking about.” Casalie Riley, the first beauty on the East Coast, asked distressingly, “Generally speaking, you are going to help the dwarves to fight against the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs, right? So I want to ask— I will not say anything about the bad luck of losing-If we win, what can we get?”

On this issue, there were many discussions.

At this moment, Gerald stood up.

“What can we get? In my opinion, the most important thing is to get is the satisfaction of committing kindness and justice!” The first follower of Sui Xiong spoke seriously. “We all know Our Majesty’s personality. If he was a god who paid so much attention to interests, most of us would have had no chance to live or even sit here at all. Helping the weak to resist aggression-as beneficiaries of all kinds of good and just actions of Our Majesty, what position do we have to question this?”

He turned his head to Sui Xiong, held his right hand in his fist and placed it in front of his chest and heart.

“My majesty! Please give your orders! For your glory, the Regiments of Knights are fearless!”
