119: Chapter 119 Kurtaz: Brother Haotian is so aweso!
Kurtaz’s request coincided with Li Haotian’s original intention, but so things are better left with room for negotiation until they are fully understood.
If you take on everything from the start, it might actually not be a good thing and could potentially affect the operational space moving forward.
Beside him, Gulu looked at Li Haotian with a peculiar expression.
Your strength doesn’t work in a large scale war?
Who are you trying to fool!
Back when you were facing Gordan’s army of thirty thousand Death Knights, didn’t you show it otherwise!
But as a great goblin rchant, Gulu was not unfamiliar with Li Haotian’s thinking.
When doing business, how can you lay all your cards on the table from the start?
Moreover, he just received a huge benefit from Li Haotian.
As the saying goes, if you eat soone’s food, you can’t speak up, and if you take soone’s hand, you can’t strike, so Gulu could only quietly watch Li Haotian perform.
As a kind-hearted dwarf, Kurtaz had no idea Li Haotian had so many careful thoughts.
When he heard Li Haotian “self-deprecate”, he really thought Li Haotian was worried that his personal abilities wouldn’t have much effect in this warfare between major forces, and instead smiled and comforted, “Haotian, you’re too humble!
Just based on your ans just now, you can definitely be of great help!”
After speaking, Kurtaz finally felt much better, grabbed Li Haotian, and headed towards Storm City.
As they walked, he said, “Co on, Haotian, let’s go find my father now and inform them about the massive half-orc invasion!”
Entering Storm City, Kurtaz skillfully led Li Haotian and Gulu southward.
After crossing a few streets, the three arrived at an area with more rugged and grand architectural styles.
Li Haotian looked around at the buildings and curiously asked, “Is this a dwarf settlent?”
Gulu noticed Li Haotian’s confusion and explained softly, “Although the dwarves are a bit, you know, in terms of height, their houses are actually much taller.”
“According to dwarves, their height mainly reflects in their hearts and vision.”
Li Haotian shook his head with a laugh.
Sure enough, the more people lack sothing, the more they care about it!
Well, dwarves are also considered people!
Under Kurtaz’s guidance, the three arrived at the deepest part of the building complex and knocked on the wooden door of a house.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
The sound was so loud it was as if bandits had entered the village.
Li Haotian couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
True to the “bold” nature of dwarves, even returning ho late at night has to make such a racket, not fearing disturbing the neighbors and getting beaten up…
He looked up and took a glance to find that this was an extrely ordinary-looking house.
Although a bit larger in size than the surrounding houses, there was no hint that this was a leader’s residence, nor was there a clear divide from other “commoner dwarves'” dwellings, making it quite approachable.
“Who’s there!” A robust shout ca from inside the house.
“Dad, it’s !” Kurtaz shouted loudly.
“Kurtaz?
You little rascal dared to sneak back!
I’ll beat you to death!” The robust voice was imdiately furious.
Soon after, there were clanking sounds from inside, as if the owner was looking for a handy weapon.
Li Haotian and Gulu tacitly took a few steps back to avoid getting caught in the upcoming battle.
With a bang, the wooden door was ramd open by a stocky, tower-like figure.
A bearded dwarf burst out wielding an iron pot, his gaze locked onto Kurtaz.
Li Haotian only needed one look to match this person’s features with the dwarf statue in Saint Square.
It was none other than Kudran Hamr, the chief of the Dwarf Race’s Barbarian Hamr Tribe, and one of the Alliance’s Five Saints.
As that iron pot was about to hit Kurtaz’s head with a “clang,” Kurtaz hastily shouted, “Dad!
The half-orcs are invading!”
Kudran Hamr’s movents did not pause in the slightest, and with a “clang,” the pot hit Kurtaz’s head heavily.
Li Haotian’s eyelids twitched, secretly praising: Good sound, that’s a good head!
“Ouch!”
Kurtaz cried out in pain, tears squeezed out from the impact.
He shouted, “Dad!
I’m not lying to you, the half-orcs really are invading!”
Kudran snorted, his voice rough, “I don’t doubt your words.
No matter how bold you are, you wouldn’t dare joke about such a thing, but even if the half-orcs move fast, they wouldn’t mind giving you this smack!”
“Tell , what’s going on!”
Kudran looked at the dent in the pot’s bottom, satisfied, and tossed it aside before looking at his son.
Kurtaz was speechless.
But the half-orc issue was a major one, so he didn’t have ti to complain and imdiately explained, “Dad, today I took the Flying Airship to deliver so guests to Storm City, only for those guests to try and rob my airship.
By chance, we ran into Haotian passing by, and not only did he help deal with those bandits, he also discovered a half-orc army advancing towards Xiquan Fortress…”
Apparently, this story, under Li Haotian’s prior suggestion, had beco another version that further emphasized Li Haotian’s “great, honorable, and righteous” image.
After listening, Kudran looked skeptically at Li Haotian.
“You’re saying he single-handedly dealt with over a hundred Otherworldly Tribe bandits?”
Kurtaz nodded repeatedly, “Absolutely!”
“And that he discovered the half-orc legion a few hundred kiloters away?”
“Yes, yes!” Kurtaz looked at Li Haotian with admiration.
Although the story version had changed, Kurtaz’s awe and admiration for Li Haotian were genuine.
As for the grievances between Li Haotian and those people, Kurtaz didn’t care in the slightest.
Because Li Haotian later offered to compensate him for the Flying Airship, making the Dwarf Prince convinced that Li Haotian was undoubtedly on the side of justice, just like their alliance.
Whereas Jas and others were from the Otherworldly Tribe!
Yet, after hearing Kurtaz’s explanation, Kudran was still unconvinced.
Because according to Kurtaz, among those hundred “Otherworldly Tribe” people, there were even Level 80 strong individuals, and the rest were all powerful warriors or mages at Level 60 or 70.
Given this human’s age, even if he started training from the womb, it wouldn’t be possible for him to kill so many strong individuals alone!
And even more preposterous, he could “see” a scene two to three hundred kiloters away?
Utter nonsense!
Even the Human Race’s Great Mage Kadega’s Eagle Eye Technique could only observe a ten-kiloter radius at most.
Three hundred kiloters?
That’s just dreaming, blowing hot air without even a script!
Seeing that his father didn’t believe his words, Kurtaz beca anxious.
“Dad, I’m telling the truth!”
“Haotian is amazing!
He can control hundreds of whirring flying machines at once, far superior to the Human Race’s cannons!”
“If only Haotian helps us, we could blast those half-orcs back ho in no ti!”
