Chapter 91: The Third Choice(1/2)
Luke's words made everyone feel like a roller coaster. They were lifted up and dropped, lifted up and dropped again. Fortunately, they knew that the Queen of the Clear Sky was still alive, and also knew the exact location of the Queen's lair. All that was left was to pull the magic spring.
.
Dean Vidal saluted Luke: "King Taotie, thank you for sending this precious information, and thank you Miss Star Sky for risking her life to create an opportunity for the forest elves to regain the Emerald Forest. I still have some things to ask you, if
If you have time, can you come to my office?"
Luke looked around. His arrival in such a grand manner attracted the attention of many elves, especially the young students, who were all more excited than seeing a giant panda.
"Okay! It's too messy here, so go to your office."
Dean Vidal turned around to explain some things to the other elf mages, and then took Luke to his office.
The door is closed and the defense bar is open.
"King Gluttony, please sit down." Dean Vidal invited Luke to sit down and waved the alchemy teapot to pour two cups of tea: "I don't know if Her Majesty Queen Clear Sky has told you. Just knowing the exact location of the Queen's lair is just the first step.
One step. If we want to surround and hunt the Queen, we need to pull out the magic spring, and we don't know how to do it."
Luke, who was wearing a dragon-shaped mask, did not touch the tea cup. He replied to Dean Bidar: "It requires ancient language to pull the magic spring, so it is not too difficult for the five ancient civilizations to eliminate the headhunters.
Her Majesty the Queen of Clear Skies has a very deep research on ancient languages. Perhaps she has the ability to influence the Magic Spring, but it is a pity that Her Majesty the Queen is not here."
Dean Vidal said: "But you are here! I think it is not difficult for an ancient dragon to pull the magic spring."
"Yes, it is indeed not difficult for an ancient dragon to pull the magic spring. But the question is, why should I help you?"
Solving this problem is why Dean Vidal invited King Taotie to come here alone to talk.
"What do the forest elves need to pay for the dragon clan to help us?"
Luke replied: "I cannot represent the Dragon Clan. I can only discuss the future with the forest elves from the standpoint of the Dragon Clan."
Dean Vidal said: “I look forward to your insights.”
"The Emerald Forest was once a pearl in the hands of the dragon. At that time, the dragon occupied this beautiful island, leaving many good and bad memories for the forest elves, but it also taught the magic that the dragon was good at.
Forest elf.
During the ancient war, the forest elves perfectly completed the tasks assigned to you by the Dragon Kingdom and became an indispensable arm of the dragon legion. After the ancient war, the forest elves wanted to be independent, and the dragons handed over the emerald forest without nostalgia.
In your hands.
I believe you, Dean Vidal, still have memories of that period."
Dean Vidal replied: "Yes! Although I was still young at that time, I remember the scene when the dragon left the Emerald Forest. After the war, both the dragon and the forest elves were very tired. At that time, the dragon asked
What did my father want? My father said: I want the Emerald Forest. The dragons agreed.
Now...do the dragons want to come back?"
Dean Vidal looked at the Taotie King in front of him, wondering how it would answer.
When the dragons abandoned the Emerald Forest, part of the reason was to reward the forest elves, and part of the reason was that the number of dragons dropped sharply, and they needed to gather the dragons outside and return to the dragon kingdom to reproduce their species.
Now after thousands of years of cultivation, although the Dragon Kingdom is not as strong as before the ancient war, its vitality has been restored. As the world situation becomes more and more turbulent, and the angels and Shuojin people are making big moves, the Dragon Kingdom will not expand.
To enhance one's war potential and expand strategic depth?
Returning to the Emerald Forest and bringing the forest elves back under his control is undoubtedly in line with the Dragon Kingdom's strategy.
If the Dragon Kingdom really wants to annex the Emerald Forest, do the forest elves have the ability to resist?
Dean Vidal feels that the current Emerald Forest is just a piece of fat. Headhunters, angels, the Golden Shield Empire, the Dragon Kingdom... all parties want to swallow it into their mouths.
Luke could feel Dean Vidal's nervousness and could guess what he was thinking at the moment.
"If the forest elves still want to belong to the Dragon Kingdom, the dragons will definitely be very willing to accept this former subordinate. But I feel that even if the Dragon Kingdom can take over the Emerald Forest, the forest elves will never be as loyal to the dragons as before.
A thousand years is too long, even for a dragon that lacks the concept of time."
Dean Vidal asked: "What does the Dragon Kingdom, or King Taotie, want from the forest elves?"
Luke replied: "I don't want to force the forest elves to do anything, I just hope that the forest elves can see the development direction of the world and find their own position in this dispute.
The Emerald Forest cannot exist as a separate force. You do not have the corresponding land, the corresponding population, and the corresponding resources and comprehensive industrial system. In peacetime, you can make ends meet and keep distance from all parties to save you.
of independence.
But when the fight begins to intensify and even escalates to a war, the location of the Emerald Forest and the resources it controls determine that if you don't take sides, you will be torn apart.
Do you think the Golden Shield Empire will let the Shuojin people occupy the Emerald Forest so close to them? The Dragon Kingdom will let the angels occupy the Emerald Forest so close to the Dragon Kingdom? When the war first broke out in the Emerald Forest, will the forest elves regret it?
Didn’t you determine your position earlier?”
Dean Vidal shouldered the pressure of the ancient dragon and said: "King Taotie, you still want the Emerald Forest to be re-attached to the Dragon Kingdom! But you seem to have found the wrong elf. I am just the dean of the Emerald Magic Academy, ruling the Emerald Forest."
The person in the forest is the Three-Leaf King Garrett XVII, who has the legal right to rule the Emerald Forest recognized by the Dragon Kingdom."
Luke said in a relaxed tone: "Dean Vidal, you don't need to be nervous. If the Dragon Kingdom really wants to return to the Emerald Forest, it will naturally go to the Three-leaf King. I just want to discuss the world situation with you and the forest elves.
’s future.
I came to the Emerald Forest this time just because I owe a favor to Her Majesty the Queen of the Clear Sky. Merely delivering a message is far from enough to repay the value of the sword. Killing the Hunting Queen is a request made by Her Majesty the Queen of the Clear Sky to me. Therefore, the forest elf
No additional payment is required.”
At this time, Dean Vidal's mood seemed to have gone through another roller coaster, with the biggest difference.
I have some heart discomfort.
Dean Vidal took a deep breath, and then asked confirmingly: "Your help really does not require any contribution from the forest elves?"
"I will never refuse anything extra you are willing to give me. If I can get the Emerald Forest back, the dragon kings of the Dragon Kingdom will definitely choose me as the co-leader of the dragons."
"This is not something I can decide, but I will convey what you just said to the Three-Leaf King, and our Majesty will decide the position of the forest elves in this period of history."
When Luke's goal was achieved, he said: "That's your business. I can only remind you that choosing a direction is definitely better than staying where you are."
"Thank you for your kindness." Dean Vidal asked again: "Excuse me... what is the relationship between the Dragon Kingdom and the Golden Shield Empire now? Has a military agreement been reached?"
Luke waited for a while before answering: "The relationship between the Golden Shield Empire and the Dragon Kingdom is more about cooperation on the fire crystal, and there is no clear military agreement. Before an event that threatens the Dragon Kingdom occurs, the Dragon Kingdom does not want to go deep into the world.
Dispute. Now we are closely monitoring the actions of Shuojin and Angel. There is no need for Dragon Kingdom to enter a state of war preparation yet.
If the Emerald Forest is willing to attach itself to the Dragon Kingdom, the Dragon Kingdom can protect the forest elves from being involved in world disputes prematurely. You must know that the Golden Shield Empire and the Shuojin people are incompatible with each other. Now the Golden Shield Empire uses the information gap to intervene in the forest in advance.
In the war between the elves and the headhunters, I believe the influence of the Shuojin people will come soon.
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, and a source-changing app used by old bookworms,]
Sky City lost two Holy Judgment Angels in the Emerald Forest, so they should also react."
King Taotie's words made Dean Vidal fall into deep thought. Although he didn't understand politics, the crises facing the Emerald Forest were all on the surface, and it was difficult to see them unseen.
The Golden Shield Empire rescues the Emerald Forest. The Shining Gold people will be late but will not fail to come.
Even if two Holy Judgment Angels are lost, Sky City will not pretend that nothing happened.
Dean Vidal felt that he must go to see King Sanye as soon as possible and inform him of the arrival of King Taotie of the Dragon Kingdom and the content of this conversation. The threat from the headhunters is no longer a threat, the threat from the outside is the most deadly.
Dean Vidal stood up and saluted Luke: "Thank you again, King Taotie, for your help. The forest elves will never forget your kindness to us. Now please stay in the academy for the time being. I will go to see King Sanye immediately and bring you
Inform him of the plan to surround and hunt the Queen."
"You can just thank Her Majesty Queen Qingkong. Without her request, I would not come. I have more important things to do in Shenglun City of the Golden Shield Empire."
Dean Vidal wanted to know why the Shuojin people, angels, and dragons were all staring at Shenglun City, but he knew that King Taotie would definitely not say anything, so he didn't say anything.
Then, Dean Vidal arranged a residence for Luke, and then headed to Emerald Lake.
Luke stood in his room, watching Dean Vidal's carriage leave.
In the distant sky, a few rays of golden light streaked from the other side of the sea towards the Emerald Palace.
The Shuojin people came quickly!
It's a pity that I gave Jade Court the third choice.
The retreat of the headhunters and the attack of the royal court patrols allowed the Emerald Royal Court to re-open the ground connection with the Emerald Magic Academy. The deer cart riding on Dean Vidal rushed along the mountain road to the Emerald Lake, and his identity also revealed
King Sanye immediately dropped all his affairs and came to see him.
Dean Vidal informed the Three-leaf King that the Emerald Magic Academy had found a way to eliminate the headhunters. Before the Three-leaf King could be happy for too long, he recounted the arrival of the Taotie King of the Dragon Kingdom and the previous conversation.
King Sanye's expression became solemn.
The arrival of the Taotie King is definitely not simply to help at the request of the Queen of the Clear Sky. The Dragon Kingdom definitely has ambitions for the Emerald Forest.
At this time, the entourage came in and reported: The Shuojin Man is here!
It made King Sanye even more aware that there was another big mountain on his shoulders.
The Golden Shield Empire, the Shuojin People, the Dragon Kingdom, and the Sky City that is coming at any time. Four of the six strongest forces in the world are eyeing the Emerald Forest. The situation of the Emerald Forest is just as the Taotie King said, and it is not qualified to be in the Emerald Forest.
It is important to remain independent in a fight of this magnitude, especially when there are headhunters within.
Position, position, position...
In what direction does the future of forest elves lie?
"Uncle Vidal, you are the eldest forest elf and have witnessed the development of the forest elf for thousands of years. Do you have any insights on the future of the forest elf?"
Dean Vidal said earnestly to the confused King Sanye: "Your Majesty, do you know why King Taotie came to talk to me about these things?"
To be continued...
