After saying goodbye to Sivana and coming out of the Elf Castle, Sun Ran led the cavalry back to Highland Town... No, it should be called Highland City now.
"Eddie, go and summon the roundtable members. I have important things to discuss." Sun Ran smiled.
Eddie took the order and left.
Half a day later, in the Round Table Hall in Highland City, all thirteen so-called Round Table members arrived.
Originally there were only twelve people, and they were all warriors. Now there is one more, Moses, the only VIP among the Highlanders. He is responsible for equipping the Highlanders with fire. This man is also very smart, and the game company hints from time to time,
He has even begun to explore the method of refining pure magic potions, and it is said that he has made a lot of progress.
In recent years, Moses has become more and more important, surpassing Monsa and becoming the second-ranking figure in the Highlanders, his status is only lower than that of Sun Ran.
Seeing everyone gathered, Sun Ran began to express his idea of forming an alliance with the elves to jointly fight against the Northern Dark Army.
Unexpectedly, when he said this, he was immediately opposed by almost everyone.
Mengsa retorted: "Chief, the elves are so arrogant, how can they really form an alliance with us? They must want us to sacrifice our lives for them, just like before!"
"Chief, those elves are so despicable, I can't believe it!" Eddie also said.
"Chief, most of the highlanders were once slaves of the elves and have no good impression of the elves. In recent years, the situation has improved a lot due to intermarriage. But if we fight for the elves, even if we agree, most magic warriors will not
I won't agree." Alan analyzed calmly and pointed out the biggest obstacle this time.
The humans were once slaves of the elves. Even if the elves wanted to form an alliance, it was impossible to help them.
Only Moses said: "Chief, I think we must form an alliance!"
Sun Ran smiled and said, "Tell me your reasons."
Moses nodded, stood up, and looked around at the warriors: "Over the years, I have been focusing on studying magic. The deeper I study, the more I feel that magic is unfathomable, and the more I feel that the foundation of our human race is shallow. As the leader said. With the elves'
Magical knowledge in exchange for our assistance, this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!"
He saw that all the warriors were a little disapproving. Knowing that these warriors had not realized the importance of magic, he said: "Everyone here is a magic warrior. Do you think the dwarf's fire and pure magic potion are good?"
"very good."
"It's a priceless treasure."
"The foundation of our Highlanders!"
This is the consensus of everyone.
Moses nodded: "That's right. But I heard that the fire the dwarves gave us is the worst and most basic fire seed. They also have better flame seeds, destruction seeds, and doomsday seeds. The best.
If ordinary people take this kind of fire, they can be directly promoted to a second-level warrior, and the magic power produced is very pure. Within twenty years, they will be promoted to a fifth-level warrior. If they are talented, they can be directly promoted to a demigod!"
Hearing what Moses said, all the warriors were surprised.
Mensa asked: "Is it really that good?"
"Really! My dwarf mentor told me that if the dwarf clan devotes all their efforts, they can force a talented warrior to become a demigod within three years. But what about us? We can't do it. We can't even think about it.
I dare not think! We can only refine the most basic flame seeds. So, I think the leader’s decision is very wise. This time we must cooperate with the elves to get more magic secrets!"
All the warriors were silent. Listening to Moses' words, they once again felt the huge gap between the highlanders and the demigods.
Demigods, a realm that human warriors can't even imagine. Even the leader is only a fifth-level warrior, but a dwarf can create a demigod in three years. This is terrible.
Sun Ran glanced at Moses with admiration. This VIP effectively cleared the resistance for him. He made the final conclusion: "Magic is the true foundation of a race. Do you think we should form an alliance?"
"agree."
"agree."
After the warriors figured it out, they immediately put aside their prejudices against the elves. In the hearts of the first-generation highlanders, there was nothing more important than strengthening the strength of the race.
Sun Ran smiled, clasped his hands on the table, and said with a smile: "We must cooperate, but we cannot cooperate easily. We must let the elves beg us to cooperate in order to strive for the best interests of our clan."
Everyone looked at Sun Ran.
In the hearts of the highlanders, Moses may be the most proficient in magic, and he is also very smart, but their king, Sal, has real wisdom, and he can always lead the highlanders to a better future.
This is the belief in the heart of every Highlander since the development of Highland Village over the years.
Sun Ran continued: "The situation is very clear now. In the battle of Gray Pine Forest, the elves killed a million young men. The elves have something to ask for from us."
Hearing the number of one million, the round table members present took a breath. This is more than the number of the entire Highlanders, and they are all strong young people. This is indeed tragic, and it also makes everyone have a deep understanding of the North.
The power of the dark giant created fear.
Even the elves were beaten into such a miserable state. Can they, the highlanders, go over and beat them?
Sun Ran looked at everyone and said solemnly: "Don't back down. Remember, behind the elves are us highlanders. If the elves lose, we will be finished too! This is another reason to form an alliance."
To form an alliance, one is magic, and the other is death of lips and teeth.
The Knights of the Round Table present were all smart people carefully selected and promoted by Sun Ran. Once they understood the truth, they no longer hesitated.
It is imperative to form an alliance with the elves!
Seeing the determination on everyone's faces, Sun Ran continued: "But now, the elves can rely on the Dawn Fortress for more than ten years. In these ten years, we can ask the elves to teach us magic first, and then we can
Go north to support."
Moses asked: "Chief, will the elves suffer from this?"
Sun Ran smiled and said: "The world is very strange. As long as you master the laws of its operation, anything can be easily accomplished. That's what we will do..."
After a while of discussion, a detailed plan was drawn up. The round table warriors all agreed tacitly, and everyone started to carry out the strategy devised by their leader.
….
On the first day, news came out from Highland City that they would form an alliance with the elves and go north to fight against the black giant. Suddenly, the highlanders were in an uproar, and there were voices of opposition everywhere.
"Working for the elves? Never!" This was the voice of the highland militiamen.
"I have sold half my life for the elves, and those vampires will never take another grain of food from me!" This was the farmer's voice.
"Alliance? What a joke!" The businessmen said the same thing.
Most of them were opposed. Only a weak voice in Highland City still insisted on forming an alliance. But this voice was too weak and was easily drowned in the wave of opposition. Slowly, Highland City became silent.
Time passed day by day, and the situation did not improve at all. In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
During this period of time, Sun Ran still stood still, getting up early every day to practice martial arts, then patrolling the territory, practicing martial arts again at night, and finally resting, living a very regular life. He seemed to have completely forgotten about the alliance.
Half a month later, at night, Sun Ran was practicing martial arts in the school field as usual. Suddenly he heard a slight sound from behind him. He turned around and saw Sivana standing on the school field.
"Why are you here?" Sun Ran asked 'strangely'.
In the night, Sivana's eyes were shining with magical silver light. She said angrily: "You are so interested. Did you just forget about the alliance?"
When he mentioned this, Sun Ran suddenly looked distressed, spread his hands and sighed: "You see, my people do not agree to form an alliance at all. Although I am the leader, I cannot do this against everyone's wishes.
.That day, I overestimated my influence among the highlanders and rashly proposed an alliance. I was wrong. I am very sorry."
Sivana fell silent immediately.
After waiting for half a month, she knew everything about the Highlanders. At the beginning, Thrall did talk about the alliance, and it was true that all the Highlanders were opposed to it. Thrall did not lie.
"What should I do?" Sivana was very troubled. She was also a lord and knew that a lord could not cover the sky with one hand.
But she had written a letter to tell Labusilin what happened here. After Labusilin got the news, he was very happy and replied that she must win over this support army at all costs. It can be seen from Labusilin's attitude
The elf came out in such a miserable state, it was beaten to pieces.
Now that things were so dirty, she felt very ashamed and didn't know how to explain it to Labucillin.
Sun Ran said: "There is a way."
"Say it quickly!"
Sun Ran put the sword in his hand back into the weapon rack, wiped his sweat, sat on the stone chair nearby, and invited: "Sit down first, don't stand all the time."
Sivana sat down.
Sun Ran smiled and said: "My people's prejudice against the elves comes from the painful memory of being slaves in the past. To eliminate this prejudice, the elves must show their sincerity."
"But many elves in the forest have already intermarried with humans. Isn't this sincere enough?" Sivana asked back.
"Haha, the female elves all like my warriors, who are also the upper class among the highlanders. They like the warriors because the warriors can allow them to live a good life. Those middle-class businessmen and lower-class farmers, they
But I don't like it." Sun Ran sighed.
"What on earth do you mean?" Sivana frowned. This Thrall always likes to go around when talking, making it unclear what he is thinking.
"What I mean is very clear, that is, let businessmen and farmers also feel the sincerity of the elves." Sun Ran said.
"Do you want elves to marry merchants and farmers?" Sivana was already a little angry.
"No, no, no." Sun Ran shook his head and revealed his true purpose: "We still have more than 50,000 militiamen. They are ordinary people, most of them are businessmen and farmers' sons. We can't provide that much fire for the time being.
It is a pity to activate their magic power. I think if the elves can teach us magic first, help us increase the refining speed of fire, and allow all militiamen to activate their magic power, this should be enough sincerity."
Sivana finally understood and sarcastically said: "Ha~ you mean to let us teach magic first, and then you will send troops?"
"Yes." Sun Ran nodded.
Sivana was furious and looked at Sun Ran coldly: "Young man, don't you think your idea is ridiculous? Since you Highlanders don't trust us at all, how can we trust you?"
Sun Ran's attitude also became cold: "To be honest, ever since I was shot by that elf, I just don't trust you!"
When he said this, he immediately hit Sivana's weakness. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! Where is your alchemy room? I will personally teach your magic apprentices. If you don't send troops by then, half of our clan will
God will surely level the Highland City!"
"It's an honor, Lord Sivana!" Sun Ran narrowed his eyes and smiled.
When he smiled like this, Sivana realized that she had been deceived, but she had no choice but to do it. The situation was stronger than the others. Now that she was seeking help from the highlanders, she had no choice but to endure this.
"Say yes. When the first great wizard appears, you must send troops!" Sivana set a condition.
"Arcanist!"
"You are greedy. In less than twenty years, there will be no arcana master in the human race!"
"But as far as I know, it only took you ten years. Now, are you still underestimating the wisdom of us highlanders?" Sun Ran said.
"...Okay, then ten years, I will only teach for ten years!" Sivana gritted her teeth, she could only hope that Dawn Fortress could hold on.
"It's a deal!" Sun Ran narrowed his eyes and smiled.
