The trend of alliance is looming. On one side is Magnus, who wants to confirm the dominance of the empire in the old world; on the other side is Henry, who wants to stop the madman Athel Loren from threatening Bretonnia; and finally, Imric and Emric have unclear attitudes. Elvis.
But this did not mean Ariel was under any pressure. She raised her palm calmly, and a glimmer of light emerged from her hand, revealing the appearance of a chaotic creature with a distorted face and a terrifying shape.
When this twisted creature appeared as a phantom, all Aslay's bodies tightened. This was the nightmare of natural disaster that they could not escape - Mogul.
Ariel explained the final announcement in an understatement, "Aslay doesn't want to get involved in such trivial matters, but the beastmen are the greatest enemies of Athel Loren. If the Shadow Evil appears, I need the guarantees of the Empire and Bretonnia, and I need the guarantee of Aslay." Together we will destroy the Beastman Scourge."
When Magnus saw the phantom in Ariel's hand, an icy blue halo appeared in his monocle. Ulric reminded the Chosen God of the terrifying nature of this creation of chaos. Creature's unabashed blasphemy.
"Yes, the empire agrees to this condition."
As for Henry, he knew about the existence of Morgul. After all, the beastman had attacked the lady's sanctuary many times. Listening to Ariel's words, Bretonnia had a vague idea of giving to Aesop. Loren means being a human shield.
But the reality was that it was impossible for him to ask Morgul why he was so obsessed with Athel Loren and nod in agreement.
"Beastmen are the enemy of civilization and must be eradicated."
"What about you, Imric, can you reach this consensus with Aslay?" Ariel turned his attention. This time, because of the beastmen, By consensus, the situation on the field was reversed. Caledor was located in Ulthuan and should not have been involved in the affairs of the old world.
Heh, he's quite smart, not as stupid as I thought.
Imrik continued the small theater in the albino snake skull, and responded to Ariel with an indifferent attitude,
"Of course, beastmen are humbler than any other creature. They have only one meaning of existence, waiting to be destroyed."
He thought it was Ariel . Preparing to put pressure on Caledo, Elvis took the initiative and said, "The Sotek Sect recognizes Aslay's reasonable needs and can participate in joint actions against the Beastmen with the willingness to express the prospect of peace." This kid
, Imric shook his head secretly, thinking that he needed to hone his mind, and his brain was still a bit straight. Ariel just wanted to say one thing, if Mogul came over, could Caledor provide help.
This is negotiating conditions. How can you be like you and tell the bottom line with your mouth?
However, it is his duty as a leader to make up for the mistakes of the younger generation.
"Calledor and the Sotek Sect do not have a fixed base. If Aslay wants to get the help of the dragon and the forked serpent, it is best to come up with some Sincerity."
"Athel Loren will not provide shelter to anyone who has nothing to do with it."
Imrik sneered. Look, this is what Asrai calls sincerity. There are many things that contradict his words and deeds, which deeply impressed Asul. With the essence of Druchi.
"As I expected, Aslay only thinks about getting something for nothing, trying to exchange a little action for sky-high gratitude, but that's it, I don't care. The
Caledor and Sotek sects will intervene in the old world in their own way. My guarantee is It will not interfere with the normal operation of the forces of order, but how to judge whether it is a force of order is not something everyone has the final say on." Ariel was noncommittal. What is order and what is chaos are just the secret concepts among a group of people. Well, nature is the product of the intersection of the two, and Aslay understands this better.
"In this case, my husband, the king of Athel Loren, will not target humans, but if the Empire and Bretonnia offend Athel Loren, Aslay will protect the forest by his own means."
Before the two human leaders could respond, Ariel looked at the woodland lord that Magnus had just hammered to death. Aslay would take back this grudge, but not now.
"Now that the negotiation has been completed, humans should withdraw from this place. The forest does not like visitors." "
This is not a forest." Magnus narrowed his eyes. He didn't like this queen very much. There was no sincerity in her words. How? Decide if the Empire is a threat to it?
Cutting down a tree or making a deal with the dwarves of the Gray Mountains may be considered an enemy by them.
Imric stood up pushing the armrest and strolled towards the arena where the confrontation was taking place.
"Ariel, don't take your identity as Queen of Athel Loren seriously. No one here cares that you are the incarnation of Elsa. No words." Sophistry cannot cover up Aslay's evil deeds for thousands of years." "
Not only are you arrogant and paranoid, but you have also lost the etiquette that belongs to Caledor." "
Oh? You want me to kneel in front of you and Orion, lick Holding on to your earthy-smelling heels, pray not to kill me." Imric seemed to be laughing, but no matter how he looked at it, it was sarcasm, sarcastically mocking some people who were more arrogant than him.
"The game continues. If Aslay still has some respect for the glory of warriors, it will be an honor to lose. But he always uses some small tricks as trump cards, and the battle of life and death becomes vain. I will re-judge whether you still have any value. "
Imrik, who looked extremely unhappy, turned and left, but he was already laughing in his heart. What is the meaning of Athel Loren's magic network? Is it comparable to the important artifact in Middenheim?
The worst case scenario is to let Aslay go away and let the Slann Council take over the Oak of Time, which is guaranteed to be much more valuable than these idiots. The shadow evil Mogul who cannot die? In minutes, he was smashed into pieces by Nakai and sent to the snake pit to be sacrificed.
The coordinates of Lilith's small world are obtained, Teclis' health is cured, Tyrion can work with peace of mind from now on, and the Shadow King is firm in his thoughts. This is much better than the unreliable Aslay.
The human leader stared at Ariel in review, reminding him to express some sincerity. Maybe this forest can protect you for a while, but it is by no means a fortress that will never collapse.
"Queen, do you want to..." Alohan's eyes were fixed on Imric's unprotected back. She was confident that she would hit his heart with one blow and let him sleep here forever.
Ariel was silent for a while. It was difficult for her to judge the details of Imric for a while. This Asur was very complicated, the ancient dragon sleeping in the Dragonspine Mountains, the position of the Slann Demon Toad, and some inexplicable power.
Maybe the maid can shoot an arrow through the heart, but maybe it's just a ploy on his part. The Queen does not believe that the blood descendants of Caledor will treat humans as equal beings. Perhaps this joint pressure game is just to achieve certain goals.
But what is the purpose? The Oak of Ages may be an extremely precious treasure, but for Imric, who has the Slann Council as his backer, this is not a necessity.
Ariel, who had not yet thought clearly, shook his head and rejected the maid's idea. Caledor was not an enemy that could be easily provoked. Aslay had made too many enemies in the old world. Once the dragon came across the sea, the dwarves, beastmen, and greenskins Will not miss this opportunity. (End of chapter)
