826.The end is coming? Don’t be stupid and witness the power of wealth! (Page 2/2)
The High Lord remains silent.
He sat back on his golden throne, reached out and took out an old holy symbol, put it in his hand and rubbed it.
This is the sacred object he carved with reverence for the first time after being guided by Gaia when he awakened from the Dark Mountains more than a thousand years ago. This is evidence of the first contact between man and God, and it is also The Pact of Faith between the Brass Dwarf and the Earth Mother.
For more than a thousand years, the dwarves and the Earth Mother have lived together like an old friend..
“Gaia, please answer me.”
Lord Hadran prayed in his heart, just like every call in the past month or so, but what he got was still an empty silence..
“Alas, that’s all.”
The Supreme Lord sighed in frustration. Under the gaze of General Bannock, he threw the holy symbol that he never left behind on the table at hand, closed his eyes and waved his hands very tiredly, saying：
“Go in person, Bannock, my most trusted general, commander and savior of the Brass Fortress, go and open the treasury of Gaia and distribute the king's rewards to those loyal warriors and declare to them that their king respects and honors them. Fulfilled my war contract with them.”
“my majesty！”
Seeing that the Supreme Lord had finally made up his mind, General Bannock was overjoyed. He knelt on the ground and responded piously.：
“Your decision today will be written into history. From now on, we brass dwarves will be able to truly be freed from that heavy bondage. Please rest and leave the rest to me..”
After saying that, the general put on his battle helmet dotted with red tassels again and strode out of the throne room. A few minutes later, he led a group of soldiers into Gaia's treasury. The guards have dispersed.
Bannock looked at the treasury door with the statue of Gaia carved in front of him. He sneered, and with a wave of his hand, the cold-blooded warrior stepped forward, swung his war hammer, and knocked open the heavy door. The next moment, the golden luster appeared. It lights up everyone's eyes.
For hundreds of years, the brass dwarves have made offerings and prayers to the gods before their eyes. What a spectacular wealth this is. It is enough to make the noble hermit bend down, and it is also enough to bend the knees of the brave hero. , no one can maintain their rationality in front of the mountains of gold and silver treasures, even General Bannock's breathing becomes heavier..
He stepped forward, picked up a handful of gold coins with his gauntleted hand, and placed it in front of his eyes. He let the yellow-orange treasure fall from his fingers and hit the gold mountain with a light and sweet sound..
“Well, Gaia, I broke into your treasure house, I plundered your wealth, and I will distribute these things to those people who have been abandoned by you.
where are you？”
The general said in his heart：
“Come and stop me, as long as you let down a whimper, I will immediately stop all the actions I am planning, yes, as long as you speak! This will still be your holy place. All evil and conspiracy cannot be realized here, as long as you ask.”
There was still only an empty silence in response to him.
It seemed that the Earth Mother God was very thorough in cutting off the Brass Dwarf's faith. Such a silent response also made General Bannock sneer in his heart. He kicked the golden mountain next to him, causing the dazzling gems to fly everywhere, and then He turned around and shouted to the dozen or so royal accountants who were following behind him.：
“Send out the king's reward immediately! Let the commanders of each team come to receive the rewards and inform them that each soldier will receive a piece of burning gold ore as a reward, and their vacation will begin tonight.！
Don't worry about city defense！
The iron-hearted warriors will take over their posts and let the tired soldiers enjoy the happy moments they deserve..
Everyone, you are also very tired..
Don’t forget to calculate a reward for yourselves. Don’t be formal. These are all gifts from the king and you deserve them. Cheer, dwarves..”
——
In order to attack the Brass Fortress, the Ratmen dug quite large tunnels underground. The Brass Dwarves fought most of the battle in the underground tunnels for more than a month. It was not until today that they finally drove the Ratmen away. We're out of this underground area, but that doesn't mean the danger is gone..
After all, as long as these tunnels exist, the jackals and their minions outside the city can still use the tunnels to attack the city. Therefore, for any qualified commander, how to deal with the tunnels left by the ratmen has become a matter of course. The top priority for the security of the fortress.
In the past, these tunnels would have been no problem for the earth priests of the dwarves..
Just calling on the power of Gaia can fill these tunnels and even turn them into part of the defense system of the Brass Fortress. But now that the Brass Dwarves are no longer loved by the earth, it is no longer possible for them to deal with these hidden dangers in a short time..
“Don't worry, I already have a solution.”
At this time, General Bannock, who was advancing in the tunnel, said to several worried royal psychics behind him.：
“I have a great plan that can solve these troubles once and for all, but it requires your help. You are His Majesty's most trusted psychic masters and the best psychic users among the Brass Dwarves. Please follow me. I'll come.
I'm going to prepare a ritual that can solve all problems. I need your help to complete it..”
All the psionic masters have no doubt that he is there. After all, it is only General Bannock’s perseverance and command over the past month that has allowed the fortress to persist until now. This general is the most central figure in this defensive battle, even more so than to the High Lord who had been in the throne room..
“Can you tell us about your plans? general.”
A female dwarf psionicist asked. Bannock laughed and said boldly.：
“In fact, it’s nothing complicated. It’s still the same old story. When the Mother Goddess of Earth was still paying attention to us, the power of the earth was our weapon. Now that the Mother Goddess has abandoned us, it doesn’t matter. We can still find ways to get power from other gods.
Well, no, the power of gods is always troublesome to use..
We also need to give faith. This relationship is too stupid, so we have to get it right in one step..”
The general looked back at the psychic masters behind him who were slowing down. He grinned and said：
“You know that the gnolls launched this black disaster to create their own gods, right? What an arrogant ambition, but what you don’t know is that the gnolls are actually latecomers. All their methods are based on ancient ideas. They are not the first, nor are they the ones closest to victory. Therefore, next Allow me to show you a great project that was planned hundreds of years ago.
God.
A great power born from the subspace, a wonderful individual constructed from the prayers and imagination of countless people. It has thoughts first and then great power. When something is recognized by countless people and given a common understanding that transcends entities, the basis for the birth of gods is It has been solidified, and all that is needed next is a sacrifice that is consistent with his priesthood..
Everyone, the brass dwarves are no longer loved by the Earth Mother, but it doesn't matter, because we will soon have the power and wealth given by the new god to inspire courage, gold to grow strength, trading to give wisdom, and squandering to bring pleasure..
Most importantly, burn gold！
Every piece of burning gold circulating in the continent will become a carrier for His power. I call Him the God of transactions, the God of wealth, the God of commerce and the God of joy.
Well, why are you showing this expression?？
Do you think I brought you here to perform the sacrifice of the coming of the gods?？”
Bannock looked at the horrified psionicists, he laughed and said：
“No, no, my foolish compatriots, the sacrifice has already been completed.！
Behold, our brass fortress！
A holy land that should have fallen early but was protected and won by the power of money. It has been the center of gold trading in the mainland for hundreds of years. A mining company that works tirelessly to increase wealth. It is a shrewd and stingy place that loves wealth and understands it. people using money.
Yes！
The sacrificial ceremony for the coming of my god has been completed long ago！
Now we only need to complete the last step, so that He who has shined in the subspace can truly descend into the material world..
Everyone, you will witness the birth of a new god with your own eyes. What an honor this is.！
Come, smile, and hold this 'Diamond of Planes'.”
