Chapter 28 Exchange of Benefits
"In the name of nature, I, Timmy Elvis ....... Ginkgo, in the name of the Silver Leaf High Priest of the Ginkgo Leaf Tribe, as long as Ye Ningning and his companions do not take the initiative to harm our clan, my people and I will not take the initiative to harm them, if this oath is violated, may I and my people be naturally disgusted!"
With the oath of High Priest Semir, everyone only felt that there was an invisible will condensed in the dense forest, and it was as if countless pairs of invisible eyes suddenly appeared in all directions, with High Priest Semir as the focus, and they were watching them closely.
When the oath was completed, everyone seemed to hear a voice in their consciousness, which was composed of countless grass and trees, beasts and insects, and whispered something in everyone's ears, and then everyone felt that an invisible connection connected them with a powerful and deep and peaceful will, which caused a wave, like a tide blowing over the dense forest, condensed into a rune that shimmered with a faint golden light, and disappeared after three seconds.
After the rune vanished, everyone sensed that they seemed to have reached some kind of connection with that will.
This means that the contract has been concluded.
After swearing an oath, High Priest Semir ignored the reactions of the others and looked at Ye Ningning.
The latter had already let Thran go and recalled the vampire vine, and there was no point in holding her hostage at this point, but to prevent accidentally injuring the elven girl and making the oath unbinding.
Of course, Ye Ningning is not unaware that the content of this oath actually has many loopholes to exploit.
If it is the evil camp that he often dealt with in his previous life, those guys who turned their faces faster than turning books, such an oath is simply worse than waste paper, Ye Ningning will only hehe, and even in terms of the nature of the chaotic camp race of elves, sometimes it is not so reliable in terms of oaths, but High Priest Semir is a lawful and neutral high priest who believes in nature, so the reliability of this oath is somewhat guaranteed.
Although the High Priest has learned a lot of "good qualities" from the Terrans, in essence, the more he represents the camp of the natural believer of the High Priest of Semir, the firmer his position, as long as Ye Ningning's side does not take the initiative to break the oath, the High Priest of Semir will not take the initiative to exploit the loopholes in the oath.
Of course, this is not absolute.
After all, the oath was made by Semir on behalf of the entire ethnic group, not himself, and Ye Ningning could not compare which was more important in the heart of the High Priest of Semil, the faith and the interests of the ethnic group, and in some cases, the High Priest of Semir may not be unable to make a choice.
It is difficult to force the strong with an oath, and the orderly camp is still credible.
Ye Ningning knew this.
It was already the limit to be able to force a legendary high priest to swear a natural oath in the name of the race, and the difference in strength between the two sides was too great after all, even if Ye Ningning knew that the other party also restrained himself in the oath, he was helpless.
That's the difference between strength and strength.
Ye Ningning was thinking here, but the others were a little unstable.
Xu He was a little confused about the development and turning point of the whole thing, he couldn't understand the content of Ye Ningning's later communication with the wood elf, but he vaguely guessed from the situation just now that the two sides had now ceased fighting.
He couldn't help but ask, "Ning Ning, can we go?"
"Not yet. ”
Glancing at High Priest Sulmir, who had already examined the situation of Thran and the relics, his face had regained his composure.
Although it has stopped, it does not mean that they are popular, Ye Ningning ignored the angry eyes cast at her by the Kyle brothers and sisters, motioned to Zhai Wanchen and the others to lean over, briefly explained what happened just now, and finally said:
"As long as you swear that you will keep everything you see and hear here a secret, you can leave now. ”
"If you don't swear, you can't go?"
Except for Zhai Wanchen and Du Qinghuai, who are outstanding in their observation of words and appearances, the others are actually very confused about the turn of things, although Li Cheng doesn't understand why he still swears, but he swears a lot of meat, and immediately said when he heard the words:
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up, lest they regret it!"
The hostility of the wood elves is so obvious that everyone has not forgotten that they are almost wiped out here, and normal people will not want to stay any longer.
Du Qinghuai reacted quickly, and swept over the side of High Priest Semir, and found that the other party was watching them, vaguely aware of something, and asked tentatively, "What if...... Shall we not swear?"
"Then you can't go," Ye Ningning seemed to smile, "Not only can't you go, but you must be monitored, and you can't leave your sight for a second." ”
Everyone was stunned, and they all felt that Ye Ningning seemed to be hinting at something.
Zhai Wanchen frowned, "What about you?"
"I'll go too. "I just didn't say when.
Cheng Xiaoyue immediately said when she heard this: "I will follow the eldest lady, and I will go wherever the eldest lady goes!"
Xu He also said: "Me too." ”
"It's safer for us to walk together, Brother Zhai, what do you say?"
Li Cheng asked Zhai Wanchen, who was a little hesitant and was about to speak, Du Qinghuai couldn't help but interrupt, "I think, what Miss Ye wants to say is not this." ”
He paused, lowered his voice, and looked at Ye Ningning, "If we are willing to swear, what can we get?"
With the perception talent of the wood elves, there is actually no difference between loud and low voices, Ye Ningning has already felt that the wood elves are focused, especially the high priest and the Kyle siblings are the most obvious.
But she didn't care, and said lightly: "Then it depends on what you want." ”
Really.
Du Qinghuai tentatively got the result and understood that this was exactly what Ye Ningning was hinting at, "Then what do you want?"
"I'm different from you. ”
Du Qinghuai nodded, understanding what she meant.
Ye Ningning is the leader of the whole thing, and it is also the object that the wood elves really require to keep secrets.
As for them, in fact, they didn't hear the real key content at all, even if he had already written down some syllables in the process of Ye Ningning's conversation with the wood elves, and he might have the opportunity to translate a few words in the future, but after all, he couldn't get the whole picture, the wood elves asked them to swear, but the matter was very important, and they didn't want the slightest possibility of leakage.
What can be obtained with this as a bargaining chip, of course, cannot be compared with Ye Ningning, the party.
Du Qinghuai wanted to ask again, but Ye Ningning waved his hand, "Forget it, I'll help you decide." ”
She turned to High Priest Semier, who was walking slowly, "Your Excellency, I hope that each of them will learn a skill from the nobles. ”
High Priest Semir had already heard their conversation clearly, and the Wood Elf didn't have so many twists and turns, so he directly vetoed, "No, my clan's exclusive skills can't be easily passed on, and you can't learn it." ”
This is not entirely an excuse.
Exclusive skills have a high threshold, and even if they are taught, they may not be able to learn them in a short time.
Ye Ningning said: "It's okay if it's not an exclusive skill, but we have to choose for ourselves, and you can't restrict teaching others, and you can't hide your secrets." ”
