Chapter 174: Reluctantly Agree (Ask for a Monthly Pass, Ask for a Subscription)
Solam's words made the Earl of Marshall's face flush. www.biquge.info The news that Soram is a cloud giant is indeed spread by him, and the purpose is the same as Soram thinks, Soram doesn't like them nobles, and he doesn't care about those people he doesn't know, but Solam, a resident of Rock Town, won't give him a little face, right?
At that time, there will naturally be people who know Solam to intercede, this is a dignified oppression, if you Solam is embarrassed, you won't be a bird. But now that he has been picked on by Soram in person, the Earl of Marshall is naturally a little embarrassed.
As for persecuting Mavis, the Earl of Marshall is not embarrassed, Mavis is a woman, but she is a member of the kingdom, her status is given by the kingdom, is it wrong to ask her to do something?
"I know, it's a bit unorthodox to do this, but you also have to understand my feelings, as long as you let the cloud giant form an alliance with us, everyone will naturally be happy."
"Hey, old man, are you an idiot for me? All happy? I only see that you are happy, who else is happy? Does this have anything to do with the cloud giant? Ally? Phew! You just want to use the Cloud Giant as a gunman, right? The supplies of those monsters were burned by us, and the cultists who supported them were also killed, so it stands to reason that they have helped you a lot. But you still want the cloud giant to continue to stir in, what do you want to do, you don't think I can't guess, do you? ”
"I ......"
"Don't tell me anything, it's all like this, if you can still let the thousands of civilians you said be harmed, then you just wipe your neck and commit suicide, it's so useless, why do those civilians raise you waste? That's the people of your Silvermoon Kingdom, and it has nothing to do with my Genting City, so don't think about getting something for nothing. ”
"You...... I'm just trying to get fewer casualties among the soldiers! What's wrong with that? "Being scolded so much by Solam, the clay man is also on fire, and the Earl of Marshall is also on fire, he thinks Soram is too unkind.
"Oh, you mean, I don't have to care about the casualties of the Cloud Giants? Why should they help you? This is your land, your people, those monsters are your enemies, even if you defeat those monsters, that's your credit, what the does this have to do with the cloud giants? Yes? You come and tell me, I'm the king of the cloud giants, what do your soldiers' casualties have to do with me? ”
This made Count Marshall unable to say anything, this is so reasonable, this matter really has nothing to do with Soram and the Cloud Giant, other people's kingdoms don't know where they are, those monsters can't threaten the Cloud Giants at all, can others go and form an alliance with Silvermoon City? What's more, the Earl of Marshall is indeed as Soram said.
It is planned to pull the cloud giant into the water, and then the kingdom will have a big reinforcement to help the kingdom deal with the menacing orc army. As for how to pull down the water, it's not simple, as long as the cloud giant suffers casualties, and then throw the pot to the orcs, everything will fall into place. Although it was a bit despicable to do so, for the sake of thousands of civilians, the Earl of Marshall still felt that he had a clear conscience.
But Solam's words directly shattered his little abacus, and everyone else said it bluntly and would not accept it. What's even worse is that Soram is not a human being, and those great righteousness can't be put on Solam's head. Ask yourself, he, the Earl of Marshalles, stands on Solam's side, and he won't be stupid enough to agree.
But then again, with such a good opportunity, it seems unlikely that you would let the Earl of Marshall give up, so you had to play the emotional card.
"Are you just watching the innocent people of Locke Town being threatened?"
"Do you want those Locke residents to go to war?"
"No ......"
"That's not over, as long as you defeat those monsters, isn't there nothing? What can I bear to bear? ”
"......, your aunt is also in the army, don't you think about her?"
"Are you going to let Aunt Mei rush to the front line?"
"......." Earl Marshall has nothing to say, which commander would make such a brainless arrangement, of course the mage is casting spells under heavy protection, who will let the mage charge into battle? If the Earl of Marshall really does this, no matter what the outcome, he will go back and wait to be convicted of treason, and the members of the witch group will not let him go, even if he is a legendary knight.
"Look, no, even if all of you are dead, my Aunt Mei will be fine, what do I have to worry about?"
The Earl of Marshall also understood that Solam just didn't get in the oil and salt, and there was no way, so the Earl of Marshall could only say helplessly: "How can you get the cloud giant to form an alliance with us?" ”
“...... Isn't it obvious that I've said so much? ”
"We can pay!"
"......" Solam thought about the mountains of treasures in the palace of Genting City, and then looked at the Earl of Marshall with pity, this "pile-up" is still from the perspective of the cloud giants.
"We can exchange supplies, and we will give what the cloud giant lacks." Solam thought about the mysterious garden of Genting City again, and the cloud giant didn't seem to lack anything, so he simply shook his head and didn't reply at all.
The Earl of Marshall didn't let go of Solam, and he had no choice but to look at Mavis, he only hoped that Jade Mevis could persuade Solam.
Although Mavis didn't want to persecute Soram, it was related to her homeland after all, so she looked at Soram pleadingly, didn't speak, and just looked at him directly.
If Mavis begged him, Soram could simply refuse her, but she looked at her like this Soram felt a little unbearable, "I said Aunt May, can you not look at me?" It's not for me to decide, and I can't open my mouth. ”
"So who can call the shots? You bring him in, and we'll talk to him. As soon as the Earl of Marshall heard that Solam couldn't call the shots, he hurriedly asked to talk to someone who could call the shots, and the Earl of Marshall also believed that Solam should be a king in name, after all, he didn't look like a cloud giant, and the cloud giant had no reason to let an outsider be the master, since Soram couldn't call the shots, there was no need for the Marshall Earl to be wronged in front of him, just find the right master.
"You ......" Solam saw that the Earl of Marshall actually dared to instruct him to do things, Solam raised his eyebrows and was about to say something ugly, but Mavis grabbed Soram again, still with that pleading look, and blocked Soram's words back.
"Ram, even if Auntie begs you, give the Silver Moon Kingdom a chance."
Solam is very aggrieved, if it weren't for Mavis being nice to him, Soram would have left a long time ago, he hates that others force him to do things he doesn't like to do, and Mavis is doing this kind of thing now, but if Soram turns his face now, Soram can't do it, this feeling is very bad.
He knew that from Mavis's point of view, this matter was understandable, but it didn't mean that Soram liked it, she was only standing in the position of the Silvermoon Kingdom, not in the position of Soram and the Cloud Giant. Solam asked herself if she was right about these humans, but she still wanted to bring the cloud giants in, did this have anything to do with the cloud giants? But Mavis is already like this, and Soram can only agree.
"Whew...... Well, I'll bring in the Presbyterians, and you talk to them. As for what you can negotiate, it's none of my business. ”
"Well, thank you, Ram." Mavis is glad that Soram can agree to her request, which shows that she still has some status in Solam's heart.
But the Earl of Marshall was a little uneasy, he still hoped that Soram could help beat the side drum or something, so he glanced at Mavis again, but unfortunately Soram happened to look at him, and Soram immediately looked at him angrily.
The Earl of Marshall also knew that Soram was already reluctant, and if he said too much, he might really force Soram to be anxious, so he immediately looked away in condescension.
"Aunt Mei, I hope this is the last time, I don't like others to force me, no one can." When Soram said this, he didn't look at Mavis, and he didn't say what would happen next time, but his attitude was already obvious.
When Soram said this, his tone was very flat, but anyone could tell that there was already a lot of emotion in it. And Mavis also knows that Soram has always been a person who pursues freewheeling, this time she forcibly reversed Solam's will, it is already a cross-line, if there is a next time, it is estimated that she is just his aunt, even if it is his parents, it is estimated that Soram will turn his face.
"I'm ......" Mavis was about to open her mouth to reassure, she knew that this time it was a little reluctant, but Soram immediately interrupted her.
"Alright, I'll call them now, and you're going to talk here?" Soram didn't want to listen to Mavis's assurance, as long as he knew this kind of thing, Soram would not tolerate being manipulated by others.
"Oh, let's go outside." The Earl of Marshall immediately said, he knew that this incident had caused a little rift between Soram and Mavis, but the main thing was the most important, and the rest was a small problem.
The Earl of Marshall paid great attention to this negotiation with the cloud giant, so he said that he would let Soram wait first, and he would arrange it first. First of all, he found all the people with heads and faces in the current barracks. Secondly, he also spent a lot of time setting up the location of the negotiation, considering the height of the giant, he could only choose to be outdoors.
He set aside a special area outside the barracks, so that the most elite soldiers under his command surrounded the venue, and then put a lot of flowers in the venue. You must know that now in winter, he actually asked his mages and priests to use spells to give birth to a batch of flowers.
