Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 470: Chapter 188: Knightly Bloodline Origins · Bloody Wheat Waves and the Triumphant Return of the Army

Upon hearing the generous offer from Su Li, Dorglin jumped up from his bed excitedly: ”Over six hundred Giant skull chalices engraved with Dwarven runes? That’s enough to cover the wall of shame in every brewery hall at Redbeard Castle!”

”The folks in the Gray Mountain range will go mad when they hear this. My big friend, you don’t know what Giant Brew and these chalices mean to us Dwarves! Every Giant skull chalice needs to be baked in furnace flames for ninety-nine hours, then quenched in Dwarven spirit — that’s the true vessel that can hold hatred and strong liquor!”

After speaking, Dorglin trembled his beard, paced around twice, seriously contemplated for a moment, and solemnly told Su Li: ”My friend, you might consider building a Dwarven-style tavern with Giant skull chalices in the Dwarf Community southeast of Hesse Town, using Obsidian for the gate, shields of fallen Dwarves for the floor, and a bar made from a Rune furnace built from the spine of a Two-legged Flying Dragon in the center!”

”And host the Grudge Holy Grail Battle, let the drunkards carve family trees on Giant skull chalices with detonators — I swear by the ancestral Soul Fire, Hesse Territory will become the second Eternal Peak! This will be the holy land where Dwarves check-in! It will attract Dwarves from the Gray Mountain range and even all Dwarf Kingdoms in the Hesse mountains eager for excitement!”

”If you ask me, a signature Dwarven tavern like this could easily attract 1000 Dwarves to the territory. No! In the future, it might even draw thousands of Dwarves to visit, with over a thousand settling here! Even the Butcher Brotherhood from Eight Peaks Mountain, that Dwarven holy land, will have people carrying Beheading Axes to join in the fun.”

Su Li raised an eyebrow; although Dorglin was a bit verbose in his excitement, his proposal was indeed highly feasible.

If Su Li returned the Dwarven gold comb to the Dwarf Supreme King, he will gain unparalleled reputation in the Dwarven world, and once this distinctive tavern is built, it will indeed attract a considerable number of Dwarves to visit, including Dwarf Master craftsmen and Dwarf Butchers!

It’s worth noting that even the lowest level among Dwarf Butchers is a Giant Butcher, able to use War Axes to shred Giants, with the highest level reaching Demigod Level! The most legendary living Dwarf Butcher is Gaucric Greenison, a famed Demigod, who is touted as the most manly man in Dwarven history, whose dashing presence while carving through countless monsters, Demons, or Demigod Armies makes others jealous (plus a little scared) to the point of trembling.

This legendary Butcher is equipped with a powerful Rune War Axe, possibly forged and wielded by Gronni, the Dwarven God of War and Revenge during the first Chaos invasion, transforming Gaucric into a super Dwarf in some sense: a violently vengeful Demigod who is too strong to have friends. Despite his constant desire to die in battle, he unfortunately is just too strong.

Even Khorne’s Chosen One trembles and exhilarates when reading about his legendary feats.

However, the most valuable among Dwarves are their Master craftsmen, and this tavern will surely attract a large number of Dwarves, and with a sufficiently large base, even the smallest odds will yield some Master craftsmen, perhaps even Masters at the Divine Chosen Level.

With the talents of such Dwarves, along with Ethereum Gold from the territory, who knows how many Rare Level equipment the territory might produce.

The Gem Pool produces 5 pounds of Ethereum Gold a month, and if it yields 65 pounds a year, then within a few years, it could even help fashion a set of Rare Level Armor for the territory.

If the territory’s population returns to 6000–8000, including a community of 1000 Dwarves, then the flourishing vitality of Hesse Territory next year will be limitless.

Su Li decisively supported Dorglin’s idea, saying: ”I will have Minister of Industry Sheriff coordinate your tavern plan. Attracting Gray Mountain Dwarves to settle in our territory is a key priority for development right now.”

After calming the Dwarves, Su Li turned to Dietrich and asked: ”My medical chief, how are the wounded soldiers in the territory? We urgently need to get the wounded recovered and back into production.”

Dietrich, unlike Dorglin’s jumps, possessed a doctor’s calm and composure, and replied tranquilly: ”Through our joint efforts with the Dawn Church, the territory’s potion scale is rapidly recovering. We’ve already healed over 200 wounded soldiers, and the injuries of the other wounded are also improving quickly, expecting complete recovery of all wounded in the territory within 1–2 months.”

With 1–2 months’ time, Su Li decided to wait. If everything progresses smoothly, the territory’s injuries from the current war will begin to heal by winter.

Yet, to restore the territory to its peak condition might not be possible this year.

Hence, Su Li furrowed his brow slightly, saying: ”The territory urgently needs manpower for development, is there any way to accelerate the process?”

Dietrich thought for a moment and said: ”There is a way, though it can’t rapidly expand the population, it can improve their farming efficiency.”

”Hmm?” Su Li’s eyes lit up and he immediately asked, ”Is there an extraordinary method?”

Dietrich’s face showed some hesitation, but after pausing for a moment, he still took out a crystal bottle from a nearby cabinet, containing dozens of green, gem-like sparkling scales.

”What is this...?” Everyone felt their hearts skip a beat, staring intently at the jar in Dietrich’s hand, even in its silent resting place, it seemed to exude a majestic aura.
