Chapter 168: When a Meeting from a Distant Place is in Progress

"Alright, I guess it's time for you to give us an explanation. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A man in an expensive suit with two cigars in his mouth glared at Surgut.

This house, which was originally used by the Southern Kingdom to convene the Diet, is holding its own meeting by the elves of the thermal power station system. But...... The atmosphere was quite eerie, with-for-tat breath surrounding the air.

Surgut sat calmly on the chairman, the expression on his face was as calm as a deep ancient well, and he couldn't see the slightest change in mood.

"Explanation...... What the? ”

Surgut tilted his head and tapped lightly on the table as if he couldn't understand what he was saying, and Nameless, who was standing beside her, immediately understood and answered vividly for her.

The cigar man was clearly not satisfied with this answer, and the wrinkles on his forehead grew. Most of the delegates seated at the other tables laughed mockingly.

"Don't pretend to be garlic, aren't you the one who ordered the elves stationed in various places to abandon the occupied areas and gather all here?"

The cigar man placed his hands in fists on the conference table, the green tendons on his arms reflecting the anger he was trying to suppress.

"You know the outcome of the withdrawal from the occupied territories, right? If you can't come up with a satisfactory return...... I don't think you'll be able to convince even Lord Surgut. ”

Seeing the cigar man's angry and faintly threatening look, Surgut didn't say a word, as if waiting for something.

The cigar man beckoned, and the assistant-like character immediately handed him a folder.

When I opened the folder, it was full of enlarged lab photos, but from the perspective of the shooting, these photos should all be candid.

With a sneer, the cigar man clapped his hands as if he had become the leader of the meeting, so as to attract everyone's attention.

"You?"

Before the nameless curse could be uttered, Surgut, who knew his temperament, tugged at his sleeve and gave him a nonchalant smile.

"Huhu, what do you mean by that?"

Nameless, who took a deep breath and calmed down, responded with a brief smile, and then continued to play the role of a microphone, asking the cigar man kindly.

"Don't play dumb, I distributed a copy of these things to all the delegates long before the meeting began, and if you think we don't know anything about it, you're very wrong."

Surgut didn't respond, and Nameless didn't know how to speak. But come to think of it, the cigar man should have already told the other delegates about the content of this photo, and now the explanation is meaningless.

"Don't you say? Never mind. Then I'll ask for you. First of all, the strange device in the photo needs you to explain to us what it does.

And then you, Surgut...... What exactly is hidden from us? ”

“……”

Surgut still didn't reply, although he looked expressionless, his inner wavering was still noticed by the people around him. Nameless couldn't refute it, so he rubbed the sweat on his pants with his palms, pretending to be casual.

The rest of the delegates at the meeting looked solemn, casting suspicious and suspicious glances on Surgut and her staunch supporters, making the atmosphere more and more tense.

"Still won't say?"

With a sneer, the cigar man continued as if he had won the battle:

"Are you really worthy of the trust of our thermal power station department? We have to wonder if it's appropriate to pin the future of the faction on you...... I think it's better to give up your remaining decision-making power to someone more suitable. ”

"you! Stop talking nonsense here! When did Surgut fight you for the position of faction leader? Don't think everyone thinks the same as you do, and take it back if you want to throw dirty water on her. ”

Nameless ignored Surgut's tugging and replied forcefully.

"Hmph, with only half of the decision-making power, is it still a faction leader who treats me as a puppet?"

The cigar man muttered quietly, and his arrogance subsided unconsciously.

"Everyone knows that if you have a valid reason, why don't you tell everyone? It's hard not to suspect that you're dodging like this. ”

"You guy, don't get an inch in again!"

Nameless roared.

"Surgut take care of your dog, if he barks like this, I don't care if something happens."

The cigar man said in a majestic tone, and several supporters stood up as if they were taking a stand, staring at Nameless with a menacing gaze.

"You say that...... I'll be angry. ”

Surgut spoke expressionlessly. Although her voice was a little stiff and hoarse after not speaking for a long time, the momentum of the cigar man and his supporters was completely suppressed.

Nameless bent down in horror, looking distressedly at Surgut, who couldn't see the constant change from his appearance.

"Are you alright?" As soon as the words were spoken, he regretted it.

(Damn, I'm such an idiot, how could I be okay.) )

"Didn't I tell you many times? Don't force yourself, your throat hurts again...... It's all my fault, it's all my fault. ”

(It doesn't matter.) )

Surgut's eyes conveyed this message.

(This kind of thing...... I can't bear it. )

"What a fool you are. Even if he insults me, I'll be even more uncomfortable if you do it. Damn, it's all my fault......

If I hadn't been obsessed with experiments at that time and found out that you had a problem with your throat, I wouldn't have done this at all. ”

Tears of self-reproach flowed namelessly, and he did not dare to look at Surgut at all. Because he knows that the other person is looking at him.

(Why is it so gentle!) I don't deserve to see this kind of gaze...... )

Nameless felt a caress from the top of his head, and looked up as if he had wiped away his tears as if he had hidden it well.

Your dream, even if you risk your life, I will definitely help you fulfill it.

At this moment, the belief in Nameless's heart became even firmer.

"Yo, I can talk. Wouldn't it have been done earlier, why pretend to be mysterious, isn't it interesting? ”

The cigar man who reacted sneered and said something that made people feel even more angry, and Nameless almost couldn't help but scold, and he had to stare at the other party fiercely with a murderous gaze.

The unpaid cigar man sighed, helpless at the silent Surgut.

"If you don't answer like this, I'll have to deal with it in my own way. Then let's take a secret ballot on removing all of your decision-making powers. ”

“……”

The cigar man squinted at Surgut, but the other party's unhurried appearance made him at a loss.

"Do you think I'm joking? It's already the limit, everyone is like me, and I can't bear it. ”

The cigar man continued to threaten the wishes of all the delegates, and the delegates who were delegates' wishes did not open their mouths to refute them.

A former faction leader who is outdated and concealed, and a current faction leader who is in the ascendancy, they can still weigh the pros and cons accurately.

"I hope ...... Let the war settle down as soon as possible. ”

Surgut spoke again in a stiff tone in his nameless heart-wrenching eyes.

"Huh? This sentence is meaningless, isn't that what our goal is meant to be? As long as all those who oppose us are eliminated, won't the war be quelled? ”

The cigar man laughed, as if he had heard some ridiculous joke.

"I mean...... Stop the war now...... All elves and humans...... Harmony. ”

"What's going on with this fairytale statement? Surgut, haven't you come out of your ridiculous delusions? From so many stop-and-go fights before, I have long drawn a conclusion.

These ideas of yours are simply impossible, impossible!

Don't you understand the truth that [the couch will not allow others to sleep soundly]? How could humans and the guys from the hydroelectric station department let us go? What's more, this time it has reached such a point, there is no other way out.

[Either you die, or I die] is the fate between us and them. ”

The cigar man said vigorously, and the delegates at the table all nodded in agreement.

All people live together in harmony.

The only people who believe in this are children who are not deeply involved in the world and wishful thinking.

"No, there really is a way to do it this time, and you can achieve such a result by relying on the device on the photo."

Nameless couldn't bear to say it like this anymore.

Hearing him say this, everyone's attention was focused on him at once, and although he was skeptical, the result was good, much better than he had expected.

"Don't be a fool of you, what can be so powerful? Don't let him fool you. ”

The cigar man continued to say his claim, but no one paid attention to this situation, and the cigar man, who was about to raise his arms and shout, had no choice but to listen to the nameless man and continue.

"Then I'll move on."

Nameless continued to speak.

"We all know why humans are hostile to us, and although our appearance is almost indistinguishable from theirs, the elves possess the power to distance the two long before they meet."

From time to time, the cigar man made trouble, shouting things like "You're not human" and "nonsense", but no one paid attention to his statement.

In other words, it is the power of the elves that makes us have an unequal relationship with humans, which in turn makes humans see us as a threat and become hostile to each other.

In this way, if we think about it the other way, wouldn't it be possible for us to live in harmony if we were equal in power with human beings?

And this device is the solution to this problem. ”

Nameless said confidently, and almost everyone in the room was dumbfounded.
