Chapter 114: Dragon Island Negotiation (4)
And while Viren, Ciel, and the three of them were resting, along with the dragons, in the southwest of the continent, Lady Sigh and Sir Scar were fighting to save the City of Armor.
Viren and the others knew that their stay on Dragon Island had to be as short as possible. Because every second has the potential to represent the loss of a life on the continent. Moreover, it is not the apostles who are more likely to die, but the races of the human world who are still desperately resisting the apostles.
Because of the existence of that light curtain, Viren and the others didn't know if it was day or night, and even the specific time was not clear. In addition, the dragons around them, who were watching their every move under the pretext of guarding their safety, refused to reveal what time it was. So, it's about making sure that one of the three of them is awake, and that you have to judge how much time has passed by every move around them.
And they really don't have any sleepiness, just as those dragons are thinking about the conditions for the alliance, they also need to come up with a way to make those dragons can invest as many troops as possible in this war to share the pressure of the various races in the human world.
For the incident that happened not long ago, it also made Viren and Hill a little afraid. "You're really powerful, you just made up the apostles who were studying the dragon plague. With a flick of his hand, a transparent, at least invisible soundproof barrier enveloped the three of them, and before that, Viren yelled at the dragons a few times, but the dragons didn't hear anything. That's why Viren complained to the Duke of Disgust, "What if they really brought you over and asked? What should you do then? Can you still remind you on the spot and let him say that in fact, in their world, the Lost Lord is studying the plague against the dragons?"
The Duke of Disgust didn't take Viren's complaints to heart, after all, it was too risky to do anything before. So much so that even Hill is a little dissatisfied when he looks at the disgusted duke now. "Don't worry, both. If I dare to do that, it means that I am in control. Moreover, I believe that those dragons will not bring you in under any circumstances. ”
This makes Hill curious, although she is not too smart, but she loves to explore the unknown of this world. Speaking of which, the wisdom that Hill has accumulated over the past few thousand years has reached a certain level. "Why? Why won't those dragons let an apostle in?"
"This, of course, is very simple. The Duke of Loathing stood up and shouted a few times at the dragons resting a few hundred meters away. After confirming that none of them heard his own shouts, the Duke of Dislike praised Viren like a mischievous child: "Yes, yes." Viren, I didn't expect magic to be so useful. Hey, why wasn't magic as ubiquitous when I was younger? Oh, yes, we're down to business now. Ciel, Viren, do you know why I dare to conclude that those dragons don't dare to let the apostles in?"
Hill shook her head directly, she was there to hear this. Only Viren was just looking at the sky with some apprehension, obviously waiting for the sky. But because I couldn't see what the sky outside Dragon Island was like, I could only be anxious in my heart.
Seeing that both Hill and Viren were unwilling, the Duke of Dislike began to speak to himself: "Actually, it still depends on analysis. Do you know why I was able to become a duke of a country from an ordinary little person? Yes, although I am a prince, in the royal family, as long as you are not a prince, then your status as a prince is no different from that of a common person. Of course, I'm talking far, I'm going to be far away. I mean, I guessed by analyzing that the dragons weren't going to let you in. ”
"If you want to say it, just say it, don't sell it. "Viren was already walking around in the small tent that had been set up at this zero hour. "We're going to come up with a plan as soon as possible, and who knows when those dragons will let us go to council. ”
"That's nature, that's nature. The Duke of Disgust smiled, "The first point is that I know that the haughty nature of those dragons will not allow the enemies of the Apostles to enter their last reservation. Well, it's the same for us. After all, none of us are dragons, and even we can't believe them, let alone the apostles. ”
After a pause, the Duke of Disgust quickly stated the second reason. "The second reason is the plague itself. ”
"Plague? But isn't that fake?"
"Plague? yes, yes. ”
The Duke of Disgust looked at Viren and Ciel, who had expressed their attitudes one after another, and looked very satisfied. "That's right, it's the plague. Although they were not sure if the plague was real, they did know something about it. At least we know that the human world has almost been destroyed by the plague several times, and that the lives that have disappeared in it, we can never record it with an exact number. ”
"However, the plague is ineffective against these dragons. Because the plague that ravaged the human world could not help the dragon's strong physique. It can also be said that they have a kind of immunity to the plague. But didn't I say that the apostles were having a plague specifically against the dragons? So it's even more unlikely that you'll be let in. ”
"Very good, very good. Viren obviously didn't listen to the Duke of Disgust, but Hill applauded a few times. When the disgusted duke saw that he didn't get the effect he wanted, he also muttered quietly, but immediately began to discuss business with Viren and Hill.
"Well, Mr. Magician, tell us what the hell are you anxious about?"
Viren looked at the dragons who had slept with a dead pig and said worriedly, "Are we thinking too simply? Why do we conclude that the plague alone can make those dragons cooperate with us? And even if they cooperate with us, how many troops can they provide us?"
This stumped the Duke of Disgust. He really didn't know how many dragons the dragons were capable of fighting, anyway, he knew that not all dragons would be sent to the human world. Just like what Regros said before, there are really not many family resources that Dragon Island can get his hands on.
"It's okay, it's okay. The disgusted duke reluctantly comforted himself: "After all, they are still dragons, what is the saying? No matter how many dragons they can dispatch now, it will still be much better than the situation we are facing now. ”
In this way, two humans and an elf discussed all night, but they still didn't come out without a discussion. By the time Viren fell asleep, I don't know how long had passed. In any case, he woke up to the dragons who were guarding outside the tent.
Most of these dragons are young dragons, and some of them are dragons who have hunted down Nomaris in the human world. But the result is already known to everyone, these dragons did not complete the task, but were impressed by the generosity after the defeat of Nomaris, and basically became Nomaris's friends. After having Nomaris's instructions, the dragons were kind to the three of them.
The second day's meeting continued on the first day. It's just that I feel very strange that the Duke is a little disgusted, that is, these thirteen speakers who participated in the meeting, without exception, all appeared in human form. And at this time, the three of them also discovered that three of the thirteen dragon clan speakers were actually female dragons, and there were only ten male dragons. In addition, they are probably in their sixties in the human race, which is already old enough. It's the Speaker in the middle, who when he appeared in his image yesterday, Hill thought he was the youngest of all the Dragon Speakers, but in fact he was the oldest of all the Speakers.
"Guest, I wonder if you slept well yesterday?"
Sleep? Sleep. Viren had been discussing with Duke Loathing about how to deal with today's meeting all night, and so far Viren hadn't rested for even a second. It's just that Hill, because he doesn't like these scheming things, so he sleeps very comfortably.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Excellency. The Duke of Disgust tried to hide the dark circles in his eyes so that the Speaker could be sure that he had indeed slept well, and on the other hand, he said with anticipation: "Your Excellency, I wonder how you arranged the cooperation, and how much will you invest in saving this world?"
The speaker of the dragon clan looked embarrassed: "Guest, do you know the specific situation of our dragon clan?"
After thinking for a while, the Duke of Disgust shook his head: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, I don't know about this. ”
"Hey, maybe you've heard from other dragons about our Dragon Island. But that's all fake. In order to show the sincerity of our dragon clan, I will tell you the current situation of our dragon clan without reservation. At present, in the entire Dragon Island, as well as on the mainland, there are a total of 1,327 of our dragon clan. Among them, there are 1,314 in Dragon Island, about ten or so have been exiled to the mainland, and the remaining three are dragon warriors who are on a mission. But now their mission is not to hunt down the exiled dragons outside, but to persuade them to return to Dragon Island. ”
What? There are only so few dragons left in this world? Ciel touched his ears, and even subconsciously replied, "What? You say, there are only so few dragons left?"
A female dragon clan speaker sighed: "Elves, you are not the only ones facing an existential crisis in this world. Compared to the elves, we only barely delayed the time of destruction. ”
And the speaker of the dragon clan continued: "Among the one thousand three hundred and twenty-seven dragon clans, there are only one hundred and sixty-nine adult dragon clans left who can really be called combat effectiveness, of which there are only adult dragon clans, and there are less than twenty of them. If it weren't for the servant of the demon god, we would have been able to fight a little more. Speaking of this, the speaker sighed deeply: "Humans, elves, we have already told you all our family wealth without reservation. In this war, we also want to help you defeat the apostles. But right now, we can only provide 50 soldiers and 50 recruits. Of those fifty warriors, we can only give you ten adult dragons. And once this limit is exceeded, there is nothing we can do. But we believe that even if we only send ten warriors, with the assistance of those soldiers, those apostles will only be sent to death. ”
There were only a hundred dragon warriors, and only half of them were truly combative, and only a tenth of the elite adult dragons were only one-tenth of them. Villan was immediately dissatisfied. But just when he was about to have a seizure, he was quietly stopped by Hill on the side.
The Duke of Dislike looked very surprised: "What? a hundred warriors of the dragon clan?Your Excellency the Speaker, you are so generous! With your help, we will definitely drive these apostles out of our world! But, when the war is over, I wonder if you have any demands?"
"If I told you to give you a reservation, and the whole continent for us to multiply and restore the bloodline of the race, would you agree?"
"This... The Duke of Disgust was stunned, but replied categorically: "No." Your Excellency, with all due respect, if the situation of the Dragon Clan is really as you said, then what can really restore the Dragon Clan is not the vast land of the continent, but a peaceful environment. If you divide the remaining races of the human world into a fiefdom, it will definitely lead to a new round of war against the dragons. At that time, no matter which side wins in the end, it will be a disaster for the dragons. Because, the dragon clan can no longer withstand the loss. Therefore, I am willing to promise as the spokesperson of the human world that once we cooperate to defeat the Apostles, the existence of the dragons on the continent will be free and safe forever. ”
