Chapter 202 Nursery House

Dwarves, an intelligent race born in the Dragon's Back Mountains.

At the same time that humans established the Central Kingdom in Donnar, the dwarves' first and currently only empire, the Clan Kingdom, also spread here along the Dragon's Back Mountains that span the entire continent.

Like other empires of the same era, the Kingdom of Clans was also a feudal empire based on the feudal system.

However, compared to the gradual loss of authority of the central government after the death of the founder, the slow loss of control of the local areas, and the gradual formation of de facto independent kingdoms, the changes in the clan states were not so gentle, and the struggles were somewhat fierce.

After the death of the Dwarf King, his descendants started a bloody civil war in the Clan Kingdoms that swept across the Dragonspine Mountains.

The bloody civil war and subsequent disasters led to the collapse of the empire. No dwarf was a winner, and all dwarves were losers.

The vast empire that once controlled the entire Dragonspine Mountains fell apart, and the dwarves returned to the era of separatist clans.

Moreover, although the civil war and disaster caused limited damage to the Dragonspine Mountains, they destroyed the dwarves' homeland in the Dragonspine Mountains.

The dwarven tunnels dug by the dwarves in the Dragon's Back Mountains collapsed one after another, and the underground dwarven territories were deserted and abandoned one by one.

Once upon a time, the vast Dragonspine Mountains were the territory of the dwarves. The dwarves traveled through the Dragonspine Mountains, and the living space they excavated and the mineral resources produced by the mountains gave birth to a powerful and prosperous multi-clan country. But now, the dwarf clans can only live in the dwarf territory on the ground, relying on the mineral veins on the ground to survive.

Even the dwarves, whose knowledge was interrupted by bloody civil wars and disasters, could not fully grasp the surface dwarven territory where they lived. Countless treasures left over from the clan states were buried underground, and they had lost the keys to their wealth and could only dig for it carefully.

The clan kingdoms that were once able to compete with the Central Kingdom, and even suffocated the Central Kingdom, forcing it to move eastward in search of other living space, became history, and the dwarves entered a long dark age.

The situation of dwarves today is only slightly better than that of gnomes.

Since the Dragon Spine Mountains are not suitable for human survival, and after the collapse of the Central Kingdom, the Knight Kingdom near the Dragon Spine Mountains is too lazy to take on these smelly and hard dwarf territories.

Therefore, compared to the dwarves who have no homeland, have lost all their land, and can only live in the unwanted islands under the protection of the moon elves, the dwarves at least still retain their settlements in the Dragonspine Mountains and have several independent sovereign states.

Although these sovereign states, like the Kingdom of Donnar Knights, were all destroyed by the Green Tide's attack, and the dwarves have now been driven out of the Dragon's Back Mountains.

Well, it seems that the current dwarves are more miserable.

While Roland was communicating with Hamar, his mind was full of random thoughts.

After a brief exchange and introductions, Roland learned the true identities of the dwarves and their current situation.

Hamar, the eldest son of the current patriarch of the Silver Clan, escaped through the underground passage with his clan members according to his father's orders after the Green Tide broke through the Silver Gate.

However, his luck was not very good. Just after leaving the Dragon's Back Mountains, he ran into the coalition forces formed at Kan'ozu's request, which recruited elite troops from various greenskin warlords.

Without any surprise, he and his people were defeated and captured.

Afterwards, his power was sealed by some greenskin priests, and he and his people were all enslaved and divided up by the greenskin warlords. Under the orders of the greenskin warlords, they were forced to make weapons and equipment for the greenskin orcs.

This is why there are greenskin warriors wearing heavy armor in this valley town. The greenskin orcs don't have the brains and ability to build weapons and equipment, so they are all made by the dwarves. "Well, I roughly understand. I am a military force under the United Army. According to the covenant between the United Army and the dwarves, you have two choices."

Roland held up two fingers to Hamar and continued.

"First: I will escort you back to the area controlled by the United Army and set you free, and you will need to pay corresponding money, weapons and equipment, labor or any equivalent compensation based on your number."

"Second: If you all join me and forge weapons and equipment for me or become my soldiers, I will treat you all equally and provide you with corresponding rewards."

Hamar hesitated after hearing Roland's words.

Seeing that he was a little hesitant, Roland also left a last word.

"You still have time before returning to the control area."

After saying that, Roland returned to the army with a few soldiers, commanding the legion soldiers to reap the lives of all the green-skinned orcs in front of them.

Under the watchful eyes of Hamar and the other dwarves, the legionnaires swept through the entire valley town like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

Although after pushing to the center of the town, a third-level greenskin priest leading the tribe jumped out and tried to give the legion soldiers a big blow.

However, just as he began to cast the spell, Roland locked onto his position and directly cast a four-level spell from a distance, razing his location to the ground.

After witnessing the third-level greenskin priest being killed in one blow, the greenskin orcs in the valley town collapsed completely. No greenskin dared to fight with the legion soldiers anymore, and they could only flee in panic.

In response, Roland loosened his control over the army, ordering them to split into small teams and start slaughtering all the greenskins they saw.

Roland and Hela led an elite legion of soldiers into the core area guarded by the third-level greenskin priests, a cave area that was originally heavily guarded.

In front of Roland, the elite legionnaires were slaughtering all the panicked green-skinned orcs, clearing the obstacles on the road for Roland and Hela.

As the number of green-skinned orcs they encountered became fewer, weaker, and younger, Roland and Hela finally reached the interior of the cave.

Looking at the scene in the room, Roland, who had been prepared, remained calm, while Hela and the legion soldiers beside him all frowned.

The female green-skinned orcs had their limbs cut off and were forcibly fixed to the stone walls of the room. They stared around with blood-red, crazy and malicious eyes, and at the same time, their mouths kept making sharp noises.

At the same time, they were constantly giving birth to new green-skinned orcs. In less than a minute, hundreds of newborns were born in the room.

The newly born green-skinned orcs crawled on the ground like mindless beasts.

Since all the green-skinned orcs who were raising children had escaped, the newborns killed and devoured each other under the influence of hunger. Occasionally, when some green-skinned orcs crawled to their mothers' heads, they would be bitten to death by their hungry mothers and swallowed alive.

What I see before me is a scene of hell.
