Chapter 280 Deterrence Balance
"I don't understand how it could have come to be like this. Obviously, it was the elves who destroyed the teleportation array, and finally became the chief to help the elves? I don't understand, I don't understand!"
Goblin friends are angry, jumping and stomping. However, Feige saw the progress of his friends, and he finally learned to restrain himself instead of pulling out his knife and rushing forward.
"The elves have to make compensation, ten standard barrels of rune ink and four hundred standard rune boards, that's not bad, isn't it?" Fei Qi crouched down, so that he was as tall as Pengpeng. "The island of the elves will sink, and they want to escape from there, but now they are in trouble. Helping them solve this problem is a righteous thing to do, and we should do it too, right?"
"But...... But I think the elves will take the opportunity to steal the secret of the teleportation circle, have you thought of this risk chief?"
Feige flicked on the goblin's head, "You call me the Headmaster when you thought I was wise, and now you call me the Chief?" Feige looked at the students of the School of Magic, "Except for the people who are on duty here today, everyone else will come back to the school with me, I have a job to give you." ”
If there were no elves to mess around, it would only take two people to manipulate the teleportation array to transport the caravan's goods. Under normal circumstances, five people would be on duty, and they would rely on guessing to leave two "unlucky eggs", and the other three would follow the large army back to the magic school. Liz, the high priestess of the Tibetan tribe, also arrived, along with Eddie. They thought that the situation might become dangerous after Feiqi reconciled, and even mobilized the defense forces of the Tibetan women.
"Didn't fight?" Liz pouted, looking a little disappointed. "I heard you beat up Gwen Klein of the Elven Elders? That guy has a problem with his brain, and has tried to sneak into our underground caverns with illusions several times, and he doesn't know what to do. But we all chased him away in the name of catching hooligans, and then he came faceless. ”
"Had I been to you? If I had known about it, I would have found an opportunity to cut off his foot today. ”
Liz laughed, "Listen, I like men who can get ahead." But don't go to him again, that elf is really sick in the brain, and we don't need to meet him like him. But what's next?"
"I brought you back to discuss this. Fei Qi waved his hand: "This is about the magic school, and it will even affect the Tibetan women's clan, let's go to the big classroom together." ”
With Didrite confined and elevated by the Elven Elders, it was not only the humans who felt squeezed in Minas Ithil, but also the Tibetan Ones. "We were reborn after being transformed by the goddess, and humans were a little scared of us at first – which is normal – but then became familiar and intimate. I admit that the Tibetan women are very beautiful, and this has played a good role. But elves ...... From the beginning to the present, they have treated us with a very arrogant and exclusionary attitude, which I don't understand. In short, it's hard to get along with them. ”
"It's not surprising that the island has been isolated for so long, and has not learned the lessons of the ethnic conflicts in the past, to develop into what it is now. "The question now is: if the elves continue to develop like this, causing more serious conflicts, is it worth fighting them?"
Liz understood. "The Tibetan women are still recovering and do not want to participate in any war, unless someone is trying to harm or destroy us. However, we have too many memories in the underground cavern and we don't want to leave there, so what can we do?"
"If you lose your land, you will lose your land, and if you lose your land, you will lose your land. Fei Qi thought for a moment and said, "The solution for a short time is to directly seal the entrance and exit, and rely on the teleportation technique to enter and exit, and maybe use the teleportation circle to move the entire cave away in the future." Don't look at me with such strange eyes, didn't the creator send the entire cave here with the Yamu clan? This shows that it is possible to teleport the entire cave, but we have not yet found a way, and we do not have such strength for the time being. ”
"Headmaster, is this a god?" asked Liz with a smile.
"To do it, you have to do it better than them. Feige's words made Liz smile, and she realized that Feige was serious, and not out of arrogance, but really had the confidence to succeed. This confidence made Liz decide, and the Fuzang Female Clan would have to keep up with Feiqi and Thunder White for the next period of time. One is the most confident and resourceful person in the world, and the other is a potential god, as long as the Tibetan female clan grasps the opportunity, she will definitely not suffer.
"We can close the cave and leave a few guards. For hundreds of years of living in a hole, no one in this world can do better than us. The rest of the Tibetan tribe can leave Minas Ihir, but you have to promise me one thing. Liz always put the interests of her own people first: "Feige, you have to arrange a place and life for us personally, it can't be worse than now, and you can't move again." I need to reassure my people and give reasons, so I need your assurance. ”
"I will do my best to fulfill your request, I promise. ”
With the support of the Tibetan women, the relocation of the magic school becomes very simple. More than half of the first batch of students were Tibetan women, who had planned to become the next group of teachers. About half of the remaining students will also have some to follow, and those who can't walk are not reluctant, and the students of the school are meant to be scattered.
"If the elves ask you what is taught in the magic school after you leave, you can tell him. I have only one request: tell them that if you want to learn magic, you can come to the magic school. Feige said to the students, "Alright, it's time to give you homework." You all heard my conversation with Gravin Klein just now, ask: What did I promise him?"
The students looked at each other, and an anxious girl from the Yamu clan immediately raised her hand and replied, "Help bring the elves from the island to the mainland in exchange for Lord Didlet's ...... Freely. ”
"Hey, I'm very satisfied with being able to answer like this, it's much better than that elf lord. However, there is still a slight deviation in your answer, that is, I did not agree to bring the elves to the mainland, but only to solve their problems when they came to the continent - there are subtle differences. Be careful when you learn from each other in the future as you exchange magic, and when you deal with other people, especially other worldly creatures. ”
Eddie and Liz are a little puzzled as to why Feige suddenly said this, but both believe that Feige will not be untargeted. "Under the circumstances, when Gwen Klein heard that I was willing to help, he was so excited that he thought I was going to use the teleportation array to bring the elves over. I asked the elves to give us rune ink and rune boards, which also played a confusing role. The Elven Elders may find out about the trap I have set, but I have the initiative in this matter, so it is likely that they will still agree. Think about it, what put me in the driver's seat was my skill in talking and tricking people?"
Many of the students laughed, even Thunder White smiled—this guy was awake, but he had been pretending to be asleep. Feige threw a piece of chalk at her head, and the girl rubbed her head and sat up straight, sticking out her tongue slightly.
"The point is that the elves don't master the teleportation circle, and they don't have the certainty of using force to obtain this technique. "Remember, as a group of magicians, the first key is to be more advanced than the others, and the second is to be stronger. The former asks you to communicate more and gather your strength to make progress together, while the latter asks you to be united, at least externally. Don't just focus on how many spells I haven't taught, think about how to create your own. I'm just one person, I can't conquer the world, and I still need you in the future. So, you have to have problem-solving skills. ”
They watched as Feige pulled the blackboard over, then drew a line that curled from top to bottom on the left, four circles in the center, and a larger circle on the right.
"This is the eastern coast of the United Kingdom of Hoya Nobles, with Elven Island on the far right and four pirate islands in the middle......"
Thunder White raised his hand and stood up, and said, "Headmaster, how do you know that there are four pirate islands?
"The Second World has made a lot of preparations for the night of the Scarlet Meteor, and they have explored many places. I've seen their map, where there are four islands, marked as pirate territory, not worth attacking - Elven Island is also marked as not worth attacking. Feige pointed to the blackboard and said, "Think about it, how much preparation has the enemy made to launch the Scarlet Meteor? Without further ado, now I'm sending you a problem: everyone wants to think of a solution to the problem of elves having trouble getting ashore. Now that I think about it, I'll give it to me before the Elven Elders are finished. ”
"When will they finish?"
Feige smiled, then rolled his eyes, "How do I know when they're done? By the way, don't tell anyone these words in class, lest there be another trouble on the elves' side. Go for it!"
One by one, the students frowned and walked out, leaving Eddie and Liz in the classroom, at which point Feige frowned and showed a worried expression. Before Eddie could get it, Liz said, "I think you've got it right now." ”
"What comes to mind?" said Eddie.
"Our tendency to leave Minas Ihir is already very obvious, what if the elves want to stop it?Although we can hide in the cave to defend, and Feiqi also has teleportation skills to leave, after all, there are still many people here who are defenseless, and it is impossible to bring all the people of Fuzang Town to the cave at this time, right?"
Feige nodded, "Yes, Liz is right. If the evacuation starts now, it will only cause greater alertness and hostility on the part of the elves. Don't look at the elves planting trees everywhere, but they also know that it is the potatoes planted by the Minas Ithil humans that ensure the food supply. ”
"Elves are quite conflicted. Eddie was impressed by this, saying, "The common delights of elves are arrogance and conformism, but their biggest problem is self-contradiction. It feels like no matter whether there is an elder's council or not, the elves are always part like this, part like that, and no matter what they do, they will be held back. What words should I use to describe this?"
"Is the elven society divided?"
"Yes, that's how it feels!" said Eddie, "I don't think the elves have a unified understanding other than the fact that they are rushing to escape from the sinking island." The elders just make decisions, and the elves comply, but the elves still go their own way in nature, and it feels very loose. ”
"I don't get along with elves very much, and Didriet isn't the kind of elf who is representative. But what you just said reminded me that it is their island and its inhabitants that can now be unified by the elves. I've found a way to get the elves to throw a mouseball. ”
"What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to go to Elven Island and bring back evidence that would convince the elves here that I'm ready to go to the island at any time. My reasoning is the difficulty of experimenting with teleportation, but they would be concerned that they now have a powerful mage who can threaten their old home at any time. Demonstrating strength and forming a deterrent is often a good way to keep the peace. I just hope that the elves are not so confused as demons that they can't read the relationship between deterrence and peace. ”
Liz tilted her head and asked curiously, "Demon, why did you mention the demon?"
"It's nothing, it's just a feeling. Feige brought the cat teaser close and showed him the War Knight's teleportation map. Elven Island is not a target for the Scarlet Meteor, but its teleportation coordinates have been calculated as the largest colony of the Elven race. Feige calculates an approximate teleportation rune based on the relative relationship of multiple coordinates, and increases the teleportation height to ensure safety.
So, he came to the strategic teleportation circle, first helped the merchants to send the goods, and then stood in the center of the circle. If he wants to go to Elven Island, he doesn't need to use a strategic teleportation circle, but this is the most eye-catching, and the elves will get the news as soon as possible. He pretended to open the magic circle here, but in fact, he used mana to light up some runes. The runes were useless in the teleportation other than glowing—though the elves didn't know it.
In a (senseless) roar, Feige teleported away, leaving the elves behind for unknown reasons. After a while, Gwen Klein and several other elves arrived, and they asked the elven guards standing guard about the situation and asked them to point out which runes were lit. As a result of Feige's trickery, the elves became even more confused when they learned about the runes, which seemed to make sense, but only to the extent of "seemingly".
After about an hour, a teleported light appeared in front of everyone, and Feige stepped out of it, holding a twig in his hand. When he saw Gwen Klein, he came over with a smile and handed him the branch: "I went to the elven island, why didn't you say that there are still many archers there? It was taken down from a tree, and the elves there said that if you see it, you will know that I have been to the elven island. ”
"This is the white laurel tree in front of the goddess shrine on the island, and the blue curved lightning markings on the branches can't be wrong. They told you to break the branches of those trees?"
"I didn't fold it, I just asked them to give me some souvenirs. I've tried, and I'm now able to pass myself on, but I can't bring anyone with me, so I can only order souvenirs. They wanted to give me a white crystal ball, but I thought they had one, so I didn't ask for it. ”
As soon as he heard this, Gwen Klein's eyes almost popped out: "That's the artifact of our temple, of course there's only one!What the hell have you done on Elven Island!"
"I flew to the island, and I had already identified myself, but the elves of the island shot arrows. Wow, they shoot arrows accurately, but luckily I used illusion to create a fake target. Then there were too many arrows, so I let the elves pass out, and then I searched all over the island for someone who would talk to me instead of shooting arrows at me, and at last—oh, yes, it was a temple, and I found it there that didn't hit me in the first place. ”
"The priest of our goddess temple has made a peace vow that he will not attack you on his own initiative, but will only defend himself. Gwen Klein gritted his teeth, "How many elven guards and civilians have you hurt?"
"It didn't hurt at all, and it would be fine if they woke up after a while. I don't count the exact number, about four hundred......"
Gwen Klein stumbled, holding the branch of the "holy tree" in his hand, and fainted directly.
