Chapter 25 Dash

"It's easy." The vampire officer snorted coldly and said. The battle ended half an hour after Prince Ogate decided to awaken. Carac Hull all fell... No, it should be said to be "liberation". And most of the main buildings, reserve resources and weapons and equipment were completely preserved.

Although it is not the largest legendary fortress in the Dwarf Kingdom, Karak Karak, who is extremely rich. After all, Karak Hull is also a dwarf fortress that has been operating for thousands of years. Moreover, from the time of its establishment to the present, it has not been conquered or looted by any army. All the wealth accumulated by the dwarves living in this fortress is stored here.

As famous as the stubborn dwarves, their greed - gold, silver, gems, diamonds, agate... The dwarves like to live in the mountains and have developed industrial and mining industries, but it is not unreasonable. Although the elderly, weak, women and children who retreated to the rear before took away some of the treasures accumulated by the dwarves. However, compared with the wealth that still remained in Karak Hull, the thing that was taken away was a hair on Jiuniu.

After being attacked, the dwarves really wanted to destroy all their treasures. In fact, compared to the inheritance of science and technology that Valed values, the dwarves valued more on the treasure house they had accumulated for thousands of years. Even if the precious metals of gold and silver cannot be burned, the jewelry must be destroyed.

However, as mentioned before, the number of dwarves is too small and the time is too urgent. From this perspective, Sylvania's assault can be said to be very successful.

When the entire fortress was reconnaissed and confirmed that there were no fish that had missed the net, the vampire officers dispatched some people to re-arrange their defenses to deal with the dwarf troops who were going to return here next. They also distributed some people to clean up the battlefield. The remaining vampires all went to check the spoils obtained from this war.

After trying several times, the exquisite locks of the dwarf treasure house were unable to crack the exquisite locks, the vampire officers had to violently dismantle the locks made of pure gold and mitral alloy, which were of considerable value. After the extremely heavy door opened little by little, it shone so brightly that it was about to scare people's eyes and magnify them little by little. Then, all the vampire officers who saw all this grew up in surprise and could not suppress their mouths.

It was really shocking - neatly arranged gold bricks and silver ingots filled half of the treasure house. From the ground to the ceiling, there were all kinds of gold coins scattered all over the ground and piled up into hills - these trade income from the dwarves. Several boxes as big as half a bed were placed on the other side. The vampire officers walked over and opened the boxes. There were large pieces of high-purity magic crystals, or gems, pearls, agate, jade... all kinds of colors, and they were all there.

The value of this dwarf treasure house is probably more than one billion Jinlaal. And there are eight such dwarf treasure houses in the city of Karak Hull!

"So rich, these short guys." Many vampire officers sighed like this. Then they quickly retreated. They turned on the communication crystal and excitedly told Vared about these things.

However, Valed was not very excited about these things. Gold, silver and jewelry were indeed very good. The amount of wealth accumulated by the dwarves over thousands of years was indeed quite amazing. But what is the use of these wealth in this case? Can it be converted into strategic materials so that Sylvania can gain a greater advantage in the next world war?

No, no, no - because this war swept the whole world. Strategic resources - metal, wood, leather... These things are stored all over the world. It is impossible to sell them to others... Well, Arabi across the central waters probably will sell some. But as mentioned before, in order to build a road to the endless mountainous areas in the north, the construction period of the deep water port has been delayed again.

Of course, even if the deepwater port is completed as scheduled, it is not so easy to build a navy. Before the shipbuilding technology, I did ask the dark elves for a lot of espionage costs for Usuan. And the navy talent is barely considered to be one of them - Vared's clan uncle Felix, the pirate king and Governor Scarten in the eastern part of the Claw Sea. In this collision of good and evil, he finally became the first force that could not hold on.

Before this, both Empire and Chaos had a certain tacit understanding with Sylvania. Therefore, Felix, who could be called Valed's agent at that level, could gain a place on the southern coast of the Claw Sea. When the war in the Principality of Ostland was in full swing, he could still guarantee his status.

But after that, after Valed launched a war against the Dwarf Kingdom, and after Valed replied to the Sigma Emperor Magnus with the word "hehe", the Sigma Empire's attitude towards Felix and Scarton completely changed. Perhaps it was for the safety of its flanks, or to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. The ten princes of the Sigma Empire took turns to launch an offensive against Scarton.

Of course, in this process, the war against Chaos was still going on in the main battlefield, and the main forces of the Sigma Empire were still carrying out garrison operations on this battlefield.

But the lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if it was just a group of partial divisions, Scarton could not bear it. After blocking several waves of offensives, both the local aristocratic armed forces in Scarton, the mercenary troops in Free City, or the pirate troops in Felix, and the undead troops were all suffering heavy casualties.

However, at that time, Felix could barely hold on. What really made Scarton unable to resist was the Sigma Empire, which was the enlistment and bribery of the local merchants and nobles of Scarton. They informed the Scartons of the reason for the conflict between the Empire and Scarton. They told them that it was because their vampire governor's country attacked the empire's allies, which led to the empire attacking Scartons.

Therefore, the merchants who were already dissatisfied with Felix's rule and had to unite only in order to deal with this war of good and evil, quickly split into several factions. Some still intended to maintain Scarten's supreme nature, and some had long been related to Chaos. Some hoped that the Sigma Empire would accept them. In this way, Felix's originally insolid ruling foundation quickly collapsed.

Fortunately, before that, Vared had instructed him that if it was impossible, he would lead the troops back to the base of the island. After realizing that the wind was not right, Felix decisively carried out Vared's order. He took his pirate troops and brought all the finances and materials he had plundered in the past period. He went back to his base in a mighty manner.

After calculations like this, Felix did not lose money, and even made a lot of money. Both money, personnel and warships increased a lot. However, compared to the increase in strength, the deterioration of the situation was even worse, and it was decisively bad...

After losing the city of Scarton, Felix's pirate regiment encountered another crisis - several captains who were bribed by Chaos, and the third human lieutenant (the first and second lieutenant were vampires) who were randomly enthroned by the Empire as commander of the navy, launched rebellions one after another, which weakened the strength of the pirate regiment.

In this case, Felix finally couldn't support it. After thinking for a while, and as Vared was preparing to build a naval force, Felix decided to take his fleet around the old world for a while, reaching the deepwater port at the other end of the old world. He also served as commander of the Sylvanian Navy.

Well, I explained this matter and turned back to the previous question. Compared to the inestimable dwarf treasure house, Valed valued more about other materials accumulated by the dwarves. The magic crystal ore piled up in the warehouse, the highly purified gold, mitril silver, black iron and high-quality steel with a quantity of more than ten times more. Compared to the gold, silver and jewelry, these materials were recorded even more happy.

In addition to these equipment, the most valuable ones are the fortress guns arranged by the dwarves in the fortress of Karakhull. These 18-pound, 24-pound, and 36-pound heavy artillery combined have 400 pieces. They are comparable to the annual output of the arsenal in Silvania. The number of shells and gunpowder that matches it is also very sufficient.

"Although the shooting speed and range are not as good as our latest design of fast infantry cannons, its power cannot be underestimated. These cannons are still not outdated in this era. They can even be considered relatively advanced. They just make up for our unusable logistics problems." Vared happily accepted this generous gift from the dwarves. When they thought of it quickly, these cannons would turn around and deal with their original owners. Vared felt very happy.

"Am I becoming a little bit ill-hearted?" Vared said with a smile, leaning towards the back of the chair, leaning his neck against the back of the chair, looking up at Katie behind him, then stretching out his hand, holding Katie's chest, and rubbing it hard.

"Ah, then, that... master?" Katie had no idea how to answer, so she could only endure the pleasure from her sensitive body after being transformed, while saying meaningless nonsense in a trembling tone.
