Chapter 67: The Sky City Project
Dalaran, an ordinary mage tower.
The Mage Tower is not surprising at all among the endless mage towers in Dalaran, he can only rank in the middle in terms of height, and in terms of appearance decoration, he is even more ordinary.
But that's it, it looks ordinary, there are countless mage towers in Dalaran, but it is the place where Antonidas, the last leader of Dalaran and the head of the Council of Six Kenrito, lived.
Luo Ning and Wen Leisha, after leaving their mansion, walked straight here.
Among the people in Dalaran, few people knew that Antonidas was here, but among the people who were concealed, there was absolutely no Ronin.
Ronin's position was designated by Antonidas, and the relationship between the two sides was very close, although not as good as Gianna's, but the difference was not too much.
Dalaran's owner is not Gianna, the original Antonidas, when choosing, it took a lot of thought.
Originally, Antonidas's ideal heir was Kel'thugad.
All this time, he has been paving the way for Kel'thugad and preparing for Kel'thugad.
Kel'thugad's talent, as well as his intelligence, did not disappoint Antonidas, and after Kelthugad reached the ninth rank, he immediately elected Kelthugad to become a member of the Council of Six Kenrito.
In the future, if there is no mistake, after many years, when the position of the Council of Six of Kernrito in Kel'thugad is secured, Antonidas will abdicate and make way for Xian, after all, he is not young.
But instead of letting Antonidas wait for Kel'thugad's position to sit firmly, nor did he wait for Kelthugad's strength to reach the rank of hero, what he waited for was bad news that could not be bad. Kel'thugad is studying forbidden magic.
So that Antonidas had to kill the killer. Compared to Kel'thugad. Antonidas values Dalaran's legacy even more.
This is the same as choosing Ronin over Gianna.
No matter how close Antonidas and Gianna are, there is one thing that cannot be hidden, that is, Gianna's identity.
Gianna is the royal daughter of Kurtiras, and his own interests are not to prioritize Dalaran, but to consider Kurtilas.
Getting Gianna to be a member of the Council of Six is incredibly difficult. Not to mention the Dominion of Dalaran, which is absolutely impossible.
The leader of Dalaran, now and in the future, he must be human, and then he must be innocent, and not involved by other forces.
For example, Luo Ning, who has good strength and no complex background behind him, is the most suitable to take his place.
Antonidas is idle. Yes, incomparably limited. Since he removed the position of the Council of the Six of Kenrito, there is no matter to bother him, no, even if something comes to bother him, he will be pushed away by him and pushed to Ronin.
Therefore, Antonidas was very idle, and every day he either read books in his mage tower, or went to Dalaran's prison, and deliberately went to see the tide hunter, and carefully studied the structure of the tide hunter's body, and his daily affairs, that is, these two things, and nothing else.
Ronin's arrival, Antonidas is not very welcome, before Antonidas is still in charge, he very much hopes for Ronin's arrival, because in that way, he can delegate some tasks to Ronin and let Ronin complete, so the situation is that Ronin and Wen Resa are wandering, no one knows where they are going next, unless something big happens, otherwise Antonidas wants to find them, and the magic messenger sent out has never found anyone.
No, it should be said that someone has been found, and Luo Ning has never replied.
After this incident followed Ronin's ascension, the positions between him and Antonidas have been reversed, Ronin likes to see Antonidas, but Antonidas doesn't like to see Ronin.
Every time Luo Ning came, there was no good thing, so this time he saw Luo Ning come to the door, and Antonidas led Luo Ning to the living room.
motioned for Luo Ning and Wen Resa to sit down, and after instructing the maid to serve coffee, he said directly to Luo Ning; "Say? What's the matter with this visit? ”
Staring at Antonidas's old face, with a ruddy glow on his face, Luo Ning smiled, I have to say that Antonidas's body recovered very quickly after he had been idle, and his face had always been pale and ruddy because of hard work.
"You've heard about Pingzhen," Luo Ning said.
"I already know about Pingzhen's affairs, you don't need to continue to ask me about this issue, now Dalaran is your decision, don't consider my opinion, no matter what you do, I will support it," Antonidas shook his head directly, indicating that he had no opinion on this matter.
Luo Ning looked at Antonidas's expression, and did not show any surprise on his face, what kind of person Antonidas is, Luo Ning knows best, so he is not surprised by Antonidas' choice.
This time, Luo Ning did not intend to consult Antonidas about the problem of Naping Town, not to let Antonidas solve it, but to ask about one thing, but to use Naping Town as a breakthrough.
"The matter of Pingzhen, I recently summed it up, our position in Dalaran is really a bit embarrassing, so this is not just a problem of Pingzhen, but a problem of our location," Luo Ning looked at Antonidas, and without waiting for Antonidas to speak, he continued to speak; "The location where we are located has changed from the intersection of the four kingdoms to a large kingdom of the Kingdom of Gilneis, and the territory of the Kingdom of Gilnaran has covered us all, and Dalaran has become a country within a country,"
"The influence of the Kingdom of Gilneth on us is too great, this time it is Pingzhen, for his establishment, we have no means of countermeasures at all, the hard ones can't be beaten, the soft ones can't be done, people can find excuses, directly isolate Dalaran, when the time comes, we will have no farm, and the grain can't be purchased from the Kingdom of Gilneth, we will definitely have a famine, and Dalaran can't maintain it, so we can only watch the establishment of Pingzhen."
"So the problem this time, it's not in Pingzhen, there will be other gate towns, sea towns, etc., the key is the attitude of the Kingdom of Gilneth."
"That's right, but what else?" Antonidas quietly listened to what Ronin said, and as Ronin continued to speak, Antonidas kept nodding his head, indicating that he was very good.
"This is the temptation of the Gilneth Kingdom, our reaction will determine the next move of the Gilnes Kingdom, if we are soft, the Gilnes Kingdom will continue to advance, but if it is hard and stiff, it will not be good for us, so the biggest solution is to master the heat, which can not only solve the problem, but also not enter the bottom line of the Gilnes Kingdom," Luo Ning summed up Fang Shuo and said.
"That's very good, this time the matter is handled by you, it's much better than me," Antonidas was relieved, and agreed with Luo Ning's words, nodding again and again, expressing support.
Listening to Antonidas's words, Luo Ning did not have any joy, on the contrary, he showed a wry smile, looking at Antonidas, he spoke bitterly; "This heat is not easy to master, and no one knows what the bottom line of the Kingdom of Gilneth is? Temptation is not easy to tempt? ”
"And to test the kingdom of Gilneys, after all, a situation has been formed, the kingdom of Gilneth is strong, and Dalaran is weak,"
"Dalaran has to rely on the snort of the Kingdom of Gilneth to be able to, such a feeling, such a feeling, really,"
"Aggrieved!"
After saying it several times, Luo Ning spit these two words out of his mouth.
"Luo Ning, you're not going to do this? So what can you do to break the situation in front of you? Antonidas asked calmly, Antonidas, who had gone through countless tribulations, didn't know how much he had seen in the big scene, and for this thing in front of him, he didn't have much fluctuation in his feelings.
Dalaran was destroyed, leaving a broken wall, the situation is much stricter than at this moment, and it is not that he gritted his teeth and persisted in holding on, you must know that at that time, not everyone supported it, no money, no materials, in order to rebuild Dalaran, he gave up an old face, and kept wandering among the major kingdoms, the dwarves of Ironforge Castle, and the high elves he had been there.
Now that Dalaran is still standing here, it means that the situation is not too serious.
Compared with the cynicism he received at the beginning, the current grievances are nothing,
"If you want to break the current deadlock, you have to let Dalaran jump out." Luo Ning said this, the bitter look disappeared, his face was glowing, one hand was gently stretched out, and then he made a jumping motion, waving constantly.
"And if you want Dalaran to jump out, you have to make Dalaran fly," Luo Ning said in a deep voice.
"Fly, you mean," Antonidas said with a look of surprise on his face when he heard Ronin's words.
"Yes, it's your research project that you abandoned five years ago, and I'm going to restart him,"
"Restart, you've made up your mind, that research project, the amount of money needed is too large, and the reason for the abolition was because he devoured too much gold to the point that it was unbearable," Antonidas said.
"I've decided, the Sky City project must be restarted, I need his details, and then a meeting will be held to discuss," Ronin solemnly bowed in front of Antonidas.
"Please," (to be continued......)
