Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God-Chapter 1283 - 694: The Net Over the Skies of Rocklands_2
Chapter 1283: Chapter 694: The Net Over the Skies of Rocklands_2
"Do the Clan Leaders know who led the assault on Tesser Yama back then? And now, who’s ruling over it?" Gaven did not answer Bolin’s question. These matters were the hardest to prove; no matter what was said, they would amount to empty promises.
He was well-prepared upon his arrival.
"Are you implying that the Iron Clan would forget its own history and disgrace?" Bolin glared angrily, clearly displeased with Gaven’s question.
"Lady Strategy once said, only by thoroughly understanding your enemy can you craft a strategy to defeat them. I am not doubting anyone; I simply want to confirm whether the information we both have regarding the Tesser Yama Mine aligns—especially the latest intel. I have a Dog Demon Servant who managed to escape from there." Gaven answered truthfully.
"A Dog Demon Servant?! A devil? You trust its words?" The four dwarves present instantly reacted with dismay, their opinion of Gaven dropping several degrees. After all, the downfall of the Tesser Yama Kingdom had been due to the alliance of such devils and orc armies.
To be precise, this particular type of devil had played a pivotal role in the demise. When countless elite dwarven warriors perished, their corpses and souls were devoured by those creatures, leaving the Tesser Yama Kingdom with irreversible losses in manpower.
Exhausted by attritional warfare, the kingdom bled until it collapsed entirely. For a long time afterward, they were unable to recover their vitality, let alone reclaim their homeland. freēwēbnovel.com
Low fertility is the common plight of all Everlasting Kinds, and dwarves were no exception.
"It’s under my Absolute Control. Its loyalty is beyond the scope of today’s discussion. All you need to know is that I possess the latest intel on the Tesser Yama Mine, which I will share with all of you shortly." Gaven was not surprised by their reaction, for his initial attitude toward Dog Demon Andrew was not much better than theirs.
Even now, he merely utilized Andrew without granting him much trust, intentionally marginalizing him from core matters.
"Allow me to speak on this matter, as I am its living witness." The Wandering Dwarf King Giharin’s face was marked by profound sorrow as he delved into the story of his fallen kingdom, an event so vivid it felt as if it happened only yesterday. "The forces that conquered Tesser Yama, the Monster Allied Army, were led by a lich named Great Helendadim, composed of orcs, Dog Demons, and summoned devils."
"To this day, no one knows Great Helendadim’s true origin. Afterward, we investigated his entire history; his activities can be traced as far back as 1,900 years ago."
"At that time, the Enorok Great Desert had not yet fully expanded, being only less than a third of its current size."
"No one knew his original name. Only because in the Windplain—that is now the northern Rocklands’ Sword Desert Area adjacent to the Enorok Great Desert—he established a goblin kingdom named Helendadim, which wreaked havoc in the area for nearly a thousand years."
"In Valley Calendar Year -87, they destroyed Tackhar Valley, which was the Valley’s precursor territory.
In Valley Calendar Year 111, they allied with the orcs, conquering and destroying Anno Rhea, one of the land nations that arose following the Nesserel Empire’s collapse and division.
In Valley Calendar Year 198, they pushed through the Rocklands to invade Komeer, burning Arabey City and advancing their armies to the vicinity of King’s Forest. Not until Year 200, when King Morian led an army to defeat them, were they forcefully driven back to the Rocklands.
By Year 268, the Helendadim Kingdom had succumbed entirely to the creeping expansion of the Enorok Great Desert, plunging into unprecedented internal chaos. Its ruler, Great Helendadim, disappeared without warning. His reappearance was in Year 1104, when the Tesser Yama Kingdom fell—the mournful year of the Iron Clan."
"Though he has not led his devil legion out of Tesser Yama for years and outsiders rarely succeed in venturing in, we know with certainty the ruler there is the devil who sold his soul to Hell."
The Iron Clan naturally investigated their enemy down to the last detail, unearthing every facet of his past and present.
This Monster Force bore striking resemblance to the current Conqueror Army, with an extreme reliance on their supreme commander; they existed because of him—and perished because of him.
The Helendadim Empire exemplified this deeply. It rose upon Great Helendadim’s emergence and fell with his disappearance. The expansion of the Enorok Great Desert was merely a trigger.
If they could carry out a decapitation strike that plunged into the heart of the Tesser Yama Mine to eliminate Great Helendadim, the revival of Tesser Yama would be as good as secured.
This, however, was nothing more than wishful thinking. Great Helendadim was a monster who had dominated this continent for nearly two thousand years. Even the incarnations of All Gods might achieve little before him, let alone confront him head-on in his lair of over three centuries. Such attempts were more likely to serve him as nourishment.
This was one of the most challenging war campaigns in all of Felen. Despite obtaining Andrew, Gaven had refrained from engaging with the Iron Clan earlier simply because he lacked even the qualification to broach such a mission.
Gaven spoke solemnly: "Given that you’ve already uncovered Great Helendadim’s origins, you should understand his influence among goblins in the Rocklands, the Goblin Margins, and the Enorok Great Desert.
Especially among the Goblin Nomadic Tribes of the Enorok Great Desert, he has ascended to a near-deity, almost akin to an Evil God.
Why has the Komeer Kingdom in the Rocklands struggled for so long to reclaim its territories?
