Niya did not agree with Xia Duo's obvious conspiracy theory. If it was so complicated just to kill an arcanist, it would be better to just let the high mage sneak over and hunt him, thus saving even compensation.
"How do you know the elves haven't come here to do the assassination?"
"This -" Niya was speechless for a moment, "I'm just talking about what happened today. This is a formal public competition between the three countries. There is no need for any conspiracy!"
"That's true!"
Xia Duo was also confused. Elves are not fools, so what is the benefit of challenging the unspoken rules? Humans have short lifespans anyway, so they don’t care. If they really hurt each other, it would probably be the elves who feel the pain more!
Although Xia Duo always likes to put conspiracy theories on elves, this incident is indeed full of doubts.
No matter what the truth was, Stuart, the dead man, was definitely the biggest loser. When he thought of the two of them chatting together some time ago, Sha Duo felt a little regretful.
Such a living person will be gone if he says he is gone.
Returning to Giles Tower, Shado and Niya separated and each returned to their respective residences to sort out today's spell duel.
…
And on the other side, in the Elven Embassy.
High Mage Suveris was furious. In front of him, the other elves no longer looked calm and elegant in the arena. They all shrank their heads, like a group of frightened chicks, for fear that the High Mage's eyes would fall on them.
On the body.
"Lu An, who asked you to kill people in the arena?!" Suveris gritted his teeth and stared at Lu An with an angry look on his face, who was carefully peeking at him.
The anger in his heart kept boiling out. Some material compensation was nothing. It could be found elsewhere anyway, but if it caused a substantial conflict between the two countries, even killing Lu An would not be able to reverse it.
Already.
There are also those untouchables from Ilfarang who always think things are not chaotic enough and insist on adding fuel to the fire at times like this!
"Lu An, tell me, who asked you to kill people in the arena? Have you forgotten what I told you before you came here?" Suveris became more and more angry as he spoke. If Lu An hadn't been of an extraordinary background, he would have let this guy see the violation now.
The consequences of going against him.
"Sir, didn't you suddenly find me last night and ask me to kill a Nese man in today's game? You also said that no matter who the opponent is, he must be killed!"
Lu An's expression was a little aggrieved, but Suveris seemed to be really angry. Even if he had the capital to ignore the other party, he would not rekindle the dispute in this situation.
"Did I order it?" A trace of confusion flashed in Suveris's eyes. If it was really him, even the Lord God would not be able to erase his memory so completely.
It was obvious that someone was impersonating him.
And this impostor, who can make even Lu An unable to tell the difference between real and fake, must be familiar with them. The most important thing is that the power of a high mage is difficult to disguise. The only one who can disguise it is the high mage himself. Suveris quickly thought of it.
A goal -
"Jelinis!"
snort--
Suveris glanced at these horrified tribesmen, couldn't help but let out a cold snort, and then turned and left. However, he did not go to Jelinis, because he knew that Jelinis was only an operator on the surface at best.
There is also a real messenger.
After returning to his residence, Suveris cast a spell to contact the country. After several transfers, the projection of an old elf appeared in front of him. When he saw the calm expression on the other person's face, Suveris' previously suppressed anger surged up again.
:
"Faro! Do you know what you are doing! How dare you wantonly stir up disputes between the two countries at this time! When I go back, I will definitely persuade King Mian to ban your organization that causes trouble everywhere!"
"Sir Suveris, what are you talking about?" The old man in the projection looked confused, but his faint smile could not escape Suveris' eyes.
He no longer concealed his anger and said angrily: "Farrow, your performance is worse than the lowest-grade entertainer."
Elves do not discriminate against entertainers. On the contrary, the more exquisite their skills are, the more they will be recognized by society. Even high-level mages are no exception, but this is not the case for the lowest performers.
There will always be elves who have no talent for acting and will overestimate their abilities and want to force a performance. This will only pollute the eyes of the audience. It is very vicious to use such terms to describe a high mage.
But this also illustrates the anger in Suveris's heart at this moment.
The expression on Farrow's face gradually became serious, but he was not angry because of it. He knew that Suveris had long ago not considered his own interests, but the overall interests of Comanso, and the distant but still possible "
Great Elf Empire" dream.
"Your Excellency Suveris, the Crown Prince knew about this matter and had his consent. It was my idea not to inform you in advance because I knew you would not agree to such a move."
"Why? What did you say to King Mian? Don't you know that the drow have been attacking more frequently recently? It is not a rational thing to offend the Nese people at this time!"
Farrow sighed and showed an expression that he knew you would say this, "It is because of the drow problem that we have to be stronger than before. In addition, this temptation is also related to the oracle of the Lord God.
It’s imperative.”
Farrow's patient explanation gradually calmed Suveris' anger, and his attention was also attracted by the oracle, "Oracle? What oracle?"
"The oracle said that something will happen to the Alabaster Tower, and it may even affect the fate of the elves. The Lord God asked us to investigate as soon as possible. The previous results of the [Omniscient Mystery] were not ideal. It may be related to the Lord of Glory, or it may be other aspects.
, this test is just to stimulate the Nese people a little, and then I will organize the high mages to perform the [Secret of Omniscience] again."
"Count me in." Suveris' tone finally relaxed, but he was still opposed to directly killing people on the field. In the end, he only said one sentence, if this incident had any negative impact on Cormanso, Farrow
There is a price to pay for this.
After that, Suveris interrupted the communication, but he did not leave. He was still in the dark room, thinking about the possible impact of this incident.
…
At the same time, the Grand Arcanists of the Seven Towers also gathered together because of the deaths on the field today. Compared to the furious Suveris, the Grand Arcanists who had obviously lost one side did not show much anger.
The Grand Arcanist of Morien Tower said happily: "Fortunately, we arranged the duel between the astral spirits in advance, otherwise Stuart would have really died. It's really not easy to deceive the elves, and I don't know.
Have they discovered it?"
"If we really find out, they won't offer compensation. What an arrogant guy! I've already guessed that those long-eared guys will cause trouble, so I'll just kill them if you ask me!"
"Badigal, you-" Princess Shia felt helpless when she saw Badigal's eagerness to try, "Please stop saying a few words and let you go. Do you really dare to go?"
"If you don't help me, of course I won't."
"Then how about we help you?"
"real?"
"real!"
"Then -" Badigal seemed to be suddenly discouraged, "Then I wouldn't dare."
"It's good to know!" Princess Shia said sternly, "There must be a battle between Netheril and the elves, but not now. I hope you can understand this!"
