In the small cockpit, they seemed to be talking about national affairs, but the people who were just talking were not very interested.
"Baier... Oros's intention is to hand over the murderer and deal with it as a personal vendetta. Of course, the country of mages also needs to sign some compensation agreements and at least apologize on the outside... Well, I
I know you won't agree. At least hand over the people, just a few dark elves, otherwise Oros won't be able to explain to the country."
I don't know whether it was out of the bronze dragon bloodline's inherent dislike of the dark elves, or simply because she was unhappy with those dark elves, but Yi Wenli was very rude.
"If you really know me, you will know that it is absolutely impossible. I am a person who always takes soft things rather than hard things... Well, actually, I don't like hard things. You say I protect my shortcomings, but I don't.
It doesn’t matter if you’re being reasonable, I don’t intend to hand anyone over anyway.”
It was nothing more than killing a heinous sinner. I don't think they did anything wrong at all. Since the subordinates made no mistakes, how could I, as the superior, back down and give in? So what if the big country tried to force me to surrender? No way.
"Tch, you are as stubborn as you remember. Also, if you were such a weakling who gave in so easily, you wouldn't have fought against the entire Bayer alone. Then, Yi... Shirley wouldn't have taken a liking to that year either.
you."
The last words were spoken very low, but I still heard them clearly, but I would rather pretend not to hear them. After all, I really don’t want to know about the past.
"Aren't you curious?'
"...Of course I am a little curious. But considering the trouble I will encounter after recalling it, I think it is better not to know. Or, is there anything I have to recall?"
I said with a smile. But Yi Wenli suddenly gritted her teeth and said.
"...A more cunning smile than I remember, you emotional liar!"
Okay, now it's my turn to laugh and cry, it seems I accidentally stepped on some landmine.
But fortunately, at least we are now negotiating on behalf of the two major forces, especially since Shirley is still watching from the sidelines, leaving personal matters aside for the time being.
When we were almost done talking, Yi Wenli stood up to say goodbye, but took Shirley away. She said that she wanted to "talk all night long to deepen the relationship between mother and daughter." But I felt that Yi Wenli was planning to talk to her.
Shirley talked about the messy things that happened back then.
Considering that if we want to treat Shirley in the future, we must get her cooperation, instead of trying to gain her trust personally, it is better to let Yi Wenli talk to her directly, so I naturally did not stop her.
"Hey, this relationship is so messed up and messy. Forget it, let's just let nature take its course."
"You are escaping."
"What you said makes so much sense, I don't know how to refute it at all."
---------------
The more you think about personal matters, the more chaotic they become. It’s better to devote your energy to business matters.
"Esso...I really underestimated you."
In a sense, Esso is really an amazing person.
Putting aside the great achievements of the past, we are no longer young people showing off our achievements. The so-called "past glory" is often just a burden and annoyance to old guys like us. He alone led the invasion work and left behind
The deadly chess pieces hidden in the dark, whether it is Bayer's "Plague of the Undead" or the "nuclear bomb" that is always aimed at the Parliament of Truth, are all deadly weapons.
At least, put me in his position. I'm not sure it's as good as he said.
Perhaps, the only thing he was slightly short of was luck.
In "History", he did successfully lead the invasion, but two thieves put their hands into a pocket and encountered the resurrected Titans. In the end, they could only fight to the death with the Titans first.
And some time ago, when it was discovered that the conspiracy had been exposed, the dimensional door that had just been opened might be closed, and the entire "return" plan was in crisis, he even sacrificed himself without hesitation, turning the return of the Tucker Republic into
settled matters.
But on the other hand, as the person in charge of the entire chess game, while playing a pivotal role, he is too important to the Tucker Republic.
As an undead emperor, he lacked trust in his colleagues and subordinates. As a result, when he fell, the secrets that only he knew were lost, and those fatal traps were not triggered.
But he was obviously not willing to die just like that, take everything to the grave, and let a century-old plan go bankrupt before it even started.
So, he gave the key to another undead emperor who was present at the time, but he did not tell the truth completely. After all, he lacked trust and even resented Roland at that time.
But a nuclear bomb that has lost its detonation code is just waste. As long as the nuclear bomb code exists, it will always be a threat. Therefore, as long as it is thrown out, you will not lose money anyway.
With the door lock, it becomes possible to find the only correct key among a bunch of keys.
"...a mixture of thirteen common medicinal materials only needs a small amount to evaporate into the air, and it can cause the bloodline in the Bayer people to detect mutations. Once this mutation occurs, it cannot be reversed."
It is obviously a very important thing, but he did not seal it with other mysteries deep in his memory. Esso mixed the formula of the potion with other alchemical knowledge and named it "Esso's Gift", and the following instructions
But it was a vague explanation like "increasing the effectiveness of special undead magic".
At this time, I couldn't help but feel grateful that I have been really busy recently, and I have no interest in alchemy or pharmacy. If I were really stupid and made a bottle to try the effect, I would not be sure of my ranking on the natural disaster list.
You can challenge the top ten.
But for ordinary mages, new knowledge and mysteries are lifelong goals. If another alchemist received Esso's proud masterpiece "The Only Formula" named after himself, he would definitely try to make it immediately, then
The fun is great.
Esso is quite willing to give it up. Apart from this "little gift", Esso's other gifts are all his years of accumulation and savings, but the Undead Emperor is the Undead Emperor after all. If you are paralyzed by his generous gifts and other gifts, you will think that the entire treasure house
They are all safe. This small gift will teach you a new understanding of what undead natural disasters are.
Yi Wenli was very brisk when she came, but was very careful when she left. After all, if the bottle of stuff she had on hand leaked, she would be in big trouble.
Of course, I won’t be crazy about playing undead natural disasters. But the biggest role of "nuclear weapons" is to deter rather than kill. It is enough to let your opponent know that you indeed "have weapons of mass destruction" and "crazy plan to use them."
then
I have the reputation of Yongye as a "guaranteed", so no one should doubt that I have the courage to use it. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, I am a more dangerous lunatic than Esso. The former's words are worse than seeing them. I
I just prepared a small bottle of the weakened version.
That's what Yi Wenli took away. There were about three or four drops of it. If used in a sealed room, it would be possible to make hundreds of them without any problem. As for whether the Bayer royal family would throw it away or find a condemned prisoner to test it after they got it.
I don't care about that.
No matter how the Bayer royal family originally planned to deal with it, it doesn't matter now.
As long as the experimental results come out, I believe that as long as there is no water in Oros's head, he will know what to do. Now that I finally have a good card in my hand, I can feel relieved.
After exiting the cabin door of the cab, I found that the dark elves were still kneeling there. Diana looked pious and aware, and seemed to be ready to face any consequences. Yawen's face was full of regret.
There were tears on her face, but Victoria sat there with a sad face. Her feet had long been numb. If her sister hadn't been supervising her, she would have run away long ago.
In fact, she was indeed wronged. She was just helping others and didn't even take any action in the whole process, but ended up being dragged into it... If I remember correctly, she was the one with the lowest luck.
Seeing this, I nodded. At least some people were sincere in admitting their mistakes. This lesson should be effective.
"Get up, I've already taken care of the matter, it shouldn't be a big problem. In a sense, this is also my fault. The work manual of the Judgment Knights will also need to be revised in the future. At least in non-law enforcement areas, crimes cannot be solved with just one move.
hit."
Diana and Yawen did not get up, but just sat there quietly. Victoria, on the other hand, crawled away for her life... Well, her feet were completely numb.
"No, it's not your fault, it's because I was too reckless."
Yawen was very annoyed, and in the midst of quite excited self-blame, I shook my head and said nothing more. It would be better to let her regret a little more. At least this woman would be more cautious and think more about things in the future.
But after the other guys were busy with their own affairs, there should have been only a few dark elves kneeling in the hall, but now, there was a somewhat familiar little girl. She was the one who was killed by the dark elves during the day.
The half-elf whom the elves fought to protect.
Even though his body was still wrapped in bandages, he was looking at the two fellows who were still kneeling with tears in his eyes. After discovering me, they looked at me with very unfriendly eyes.
And watching the semi-circular and not pointed ears twitching, I became a little curious, and just stretched out my finger to point at her...
"Okay, at least explain to me what's going on. Also, introduce this naughty kid to me, and then take her down."
In desperation, I raised my hand and pointed at the half-elf who was biting me and refusing to let go, still muttering "Damn humans". I confirmed once again that I basically had nothing to talk about with the naughty kid, and I won't do it next time.
By the way, I reached out to the untamed precious beast... It seems that something is wrong there, so let's not pursue it.
"Riya, let go!"
When the naughty children finally let go, I touched the teeth marks on my hands with heartache, but soon I understood what happened from their narratives.
"Gray Watcher? This is the first time I've heard of it."
"After all, this is a shame to Rose and the Dark Elf society, and these people themselves work hard to hide themselves. If Baker had not insisted on living in Rhea's mother's homeland this time, such a thing would not have happened. This would not have happened.
If something happened this time, he should have changed his mind."
The dark elf society is not a paradise, and not every dark elf can accept such a cruel and impersonal society. There are many defectors every year, and in addition to the gray elves who are protected by the Moonlight Goddess, the gray watchers are also among them.
An organization built by a group of escapees.
Unlike the gray elves who vowed to fight Rose to the end, these escapees just want to find a place to live their lives, but they have not performed the moonlight ceremony. Their physiques are the same as ordinary dark elves, and they are struggling in the surface world.
On another level, the standard dark elves think not to trust those gray-skinned "comrades" and feel that even if they don't have any shady conspiracy, they will regard themselves as cannon fodder in the war.
Therefore, with the help of some gray elves and Ms. Moonlight, and some successful escapees, they formed this self-help "Grey Guardian". Their members often lived in a remote corridor in a remote village and worked as full-time residents.
A farmer with muddy legs, but he will also accept help from the Church of the Moonlight Goddess.
And Baker, the injured dark elf, originally lived in the remote mountainous area of Bair, and successfully married a wife and had children. However, his wife died of illness ten years ago, leaving behind a pair of half-elf daughters, who were also half-elf daughters.
We wanted to come and see the hometown that our mother always missed, so we took the risk and came to the royal capital.
The result was what happened today. If he hadn't sent out a distress signal in time, and Diana, who originally belonged to the Moonlight Goddess Church, had received the message, I'm afraid their father and daughter would have been tied to the stake.
While I was still thinking, Baker, who was covered in injuries, struggled to come out and fell to his knees as soon as he reached me.
"Please, sir, please save my eldest daughter" (To be continued)
