Chapter 554 Who gave me such a promising son? Dwarf City.
Inside the central palace of this mechanical city, four square, smooth obsidian pillars stand evenly at the four corners of the palace.
The palace walls were covered with all sorts of gems and minerals collected from all over the continent.
The illumination crystals in the dome lit up the entire palace, shining on the gems and causing them to glow in different colors.
The view shifts to the deepest part of the palace, where a huge, rhomboid gem, as large as three or four dwarfs, is embedded in the wall, radiating a seven-colored light.
That is the treasure of the dwarf race, known as the Mandora Gem, the largest gem on the continent.
It is said that under the light of this gem, no one can lie.
Beneath this gem, Gregory, seated on his throne, listened to Arthur's report with a grim expression.
"Damn it!" Gregory hissed, slamming his thick right arm down on the armrest of the throne beneath him, causing the palace to tremble.
"Wasn't that kid Raine in the City of Light? How did he end up in the Elf Forest?"
Chad, the lord of the City of Leylines, frowned, thinking to himself that this matter was not easy to handle.
Estella, considering the bigger picture, will not attack the dwarf city just because a small number of dwarves are stealing minerals.
At most, they'd give a verbal warning, and then nothing would happen.
But the situation would be different if Renn were in the Elf Forest.
The prerequisite for dwarves to steal ore is that the dwarves sent out by the dwarves can defeat the elven guards.
With the help of magic-inlaid equipment and the latest muskets, it is not difficult to achieve this.
After all, what the dwarves lack is their upper-class combat strength; their middle and lower-class combat strength is no worse than that of the elven forest.
But if you can't win, what's the point of talking about stealing ore?
Now that Renn is in the Elf Forest, given his personality, he might have already won over the Elf Princess.
Ophelia, being Renn's bedmate, made it easy for Renn to interfere in the affairs of the dwarves and elves.
He believed that if Chad could think of something, Gregory couldn't.
Chad looked at Gregory, frowning as he asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do?"
"Thorium crystals are crucial to whether our Titan project can be mass-produced, and now Renn is standing in our way..."
Gregory sat on the throne, deep in thought, his face cold, the golden crown on his head gleaming in the light of Mandora's strange gemstones.
to be honest.
Raine's appearance in the Elf Forest was indeed unexpected for him.
After all, Granger of the Church of Light had been sending signals to the outside world that Renn was part of the Church of Light.
Gregory sighed and said, "Let's negotiate. The Titan Project cannot afford to fail!"
"This concerns whether our dwarves can fill the gaps in high-level combat power."
“I don’t want to provoke that lion, Fred, by messing with Rein.” Gregory covered his face, his rough hands revealing a look of helplessness.
Chad was silent for a moment, then said, "If we negotiate at this time, it might be disadvantageous for my dwarves."
"For the past two months, dwarven squads have been constantly going to the elven forest to steal thorium crystals, and many elves have died or been injured in the fighting there."
"If we talk about negotiations now, I'm afraid Estella won't even accept the offer..."
Gregory said, "Then let's wait!"
"We'll negotiate after this period has passed. After all, the Titans can't be built in a day or two."
Chad nodded: "I understand."
