Chapter 216: Sect Honor
Seeing that everyone saw the same, the queen explained: "The strength of the orcs is very strong, and it is difficult for humans to defeat on their own, almost impossible.
"Therefore we must unite all the forces that we can unite and form an alliance with the nations and ask for their help.
"The kingdom has been in contact with the dwarves, thanks to the Marquis of Tomaron, with whom the Blackstone Leader has previously entered into a friendly alliance."
As she spoke, Catelyn turned her gaze to Marlon, and the rest of the group followed.
They are all well-known figures in the kingdom, and when they are placed outside, they can cause earthquakes.
They looked at Malone with goodwill in their eyes.
Queen Caitlyn smiled slightly, nodded to Marlone, and then continued: "The dwarves have promised to support us in all aspects, excellent weapons and equipment, and a strong army can provide us with strong support against the orcs.
"Of course, the help of allies is not gratuitous, and we also need to pay a little price, but more on that later.
"Now I want to say that with our current strength, even with the addition of dwarves, we are no match for the orcs, and we are still in a weak position in the balance of power."
"We need to find new allies......"
"Who?"
"Where are the allies?"
"Is it a barbarian?"
"If you can move, you can't do it, but is it possible?"
"Hey, I'm afraid that please come back when the time comes, and I won't be able to send it away!"
As soon as the queen's voice fell, a series of discussions rang out from below.
Anything was said, and no one stopped it.
Ma Long thought about his previous doubts, and seemed to understand a little at this time, combined with the previous revelation of the Archbishop of Nottington, the life of Ilia Half-Elf.
He thought of the elves and looked across the way, and the archbishop smiled and nodded to Marlon, as if to see what he was thinking.
Looking at the queen again, I knew in my heart that they had already passed through the qi before.
After waiting for a few people to talk about it, the queen pressed down with her hands and signaled to calm down.
She opened her mouth and said slowly, "I think everyone knows about the existence of elves. ”
"Elves?" Someone asked suspiciously.
"That's right, it's an elf!"
"Elves live deep in the Black Forest, who knows where?" Again, the man asked.
The queen looked at the Archbishop of Nordington and motioned, "Let the Archbishop explain this." ”
"Ahem......"
The archbishop coughed, cleared his throat, glanced at Elija and Marlon, then looked around, and slowly spoke: "The status of the people here is not low, and they should know something about elves. As immortal species, I don't need to say much about their combat effectiveness, but you can also imagine it.
"I will say that the possibility of an alliance with them, as everyone knows, the elves have always considered themselves the guardians of the forest. For that reason alone, they are inherently not on the same side as the orcs.
"The orcs over-cultivate, as long as the elves know that we don't need to do anything, the elves themselves will treat them as natural enemies."
"Now the question we face is how do we let the elves know about this?"
"Go find it." A big nobleman spoke: "Everyone knows that the elves live in the Black Forest on the other side of the Western County, and if they send a large number of knights, they will definitely be able to find them!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes......" someone said: "It's all this time, what else do you have to worry about?" I'm willing to give out a squad of knights......"
"I'm also willing to send two squads......"
“……”
The orcs captured Los Angeles, and these nobles were panicked after all, and they used to be unproductive, only caring about guarding their own land to live.
I just saw the comparison of the strength of humans and orcs, and in the face of the crisis of extermination, they are all enthusiastic, even if it is only for a glimmer of hope, they are willing to contribute money and efforts.
For a while, the venue was like an auction hall, full of bids one after another.
Ma Long shook his head slightly, these nobles had fallen into the pit of several people.
was frightened by others, and then threw out a glimmer of hope, like fishing, and was dropped by someone.
Thinking of this, Ma Long couldn't help but secretly say: "I seem to be treated as a fish." ”
No matter how the queen or the archbishop looked at Marlon, he was unmoved.
Knowing that he was a master who didn't see a rabbit and didn't scatter an eagle, the two had no choice but to give up.
At the end of the meeting, Marlon got up and walked outside with Illya.
"Marquis Marlon please stay!" But the queen suddenly opened her mouth to stay.
Ma Long was secretly helpless, knowing that he couldn't hide after all.
He couldn't go, so Elijah naturally stayed.
For Ma Long, who was left behind, many of the nobles who left cast envious glances, they knew that this was the time to really decide the direction of the kingdom, but unfortunately they and others were not qualified to participate......
Everyone was gone, and the conference room suddenly emptied.
Even Marlon and Iliya, there are only five people.
The remaining three are the queen and her husband, and the archbishop.
Ma Long naturally didn't think that just these five people could decide the fate of the kingdom, and many people didn't participate because the matter was unrelated!
"You may be seated!" The queen spoke up and invited the group to sit down again.
"Step, step, step......" footsteps gradually sounded and kept approaching.
Someone's coming!
This is an old man, who looks ordinary, that is, he is not imposing, and he is not a crane-haired child.
He looked like an ordinary person, dressed in a luxurious purple robe.
But everyone stood up and saluted, including the queen.
"Master Sect Venerable!"
It turned out that this was the sect venerable, Ma Long said secretly in his heart, and he also got up and saluted.
The queen's salute is not to say that the status of the Sect Zun is higher than her, but the respect of the younger generations for their predecessors.
"Sit down, there are no outsiders here, so you don't need to pay so much attention."
The people sat down as they were told.
The sect leader turned his gaze to Ma Long, "This is our paladin, and it is really young and amazing." ”
His eyes are not pressing, but he seems to be able to see through the target.
Ma Long also had no fear, his eyes were calm, and he looked at him.
looks like an ordinary old man, but naturally he is not really ordinary.
Through perception, Ma Long can perceive the rich holy light in the other party's body, which is stronger than himself, and his thin body also has majestic strength, which is invincible to ordinary knights.
Even if you can't compare to yourself, it's not far off.
He understands that this is a bargaining chip.
Only with strength can we have confidence!
Nodding slightly, the Sect Venerable spoke, and said to Nordington, "It's better for you." ”
"Yes!"
In a low voice, the archbishop glanced at the two of them on Ma Long's side and said, "This matter has to start with Iliya's life experience."
"On the outskirts of the Black Forest in the Westshire, there is a half-elf village that has been inhabited for generations by descendants of humans and elves, that is, half-elves, where Ilia came from as a child.
"They are not taken seriously, but they are the only place we know of that have a connection with the elves, and with their help, it is easy to get in touch with them. It's not open to humans, though! ”
