Chapter 159: Negotiation
Cecil made his way to the halls of Bone Tooth City, where Catred was already sitting and waiting for him, apparently still interested in visiting the human realm. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Cecil saw this young and sturdy orc, although this orc is definitely known for beautiful men in his own race, but Cecil will never think so, his aesthetics can not tell which orc is a beautiful man.
"Hello, dear Baron Augustine. Under the order of Lord Salaman, he came to visit Catlaide, and bowed gracefully to Cecil.
Cecil was a little surprised, though it was a bit of a nondescript salute to him with the massive body of an orc. But it is indeed surprising that an orc should study human etiquette. What was even more surprising was that he directly called out his name, he had just arrived, and the orcs entrenched here not only sent an army to attack, but even knew his own information clearly, which was really not to be underestimated.
Cecil returned the salute in surprise and asked the other to sit down again.
"First of all, I apologize for the stupid attack that Alonx guy did on the city lord, but he has already paid with his life, and please forgive him for what he did and return his body to us for burial." Cartryde was not polite either, and said his intentions straight to the point.
Cecil fell into thought, Alenx should be the dead swordsman, burying the body or something needless to say is nonsense, orcs have never had the habit of burying their ancestors like humans, and it is the natural habit of orcs to eat the strong. What are they going to do with the corpses now? Cecil had reason to believe that their need for corpses had something to do with the vial of demonic blood that Elenx drank at the end.
The collusion between certain orcs and demons has been a long-standing habit for thousands of years, with orcs sacrificing demons and demons giving orcs blood. These orcs even went so far as to betray their god Geush in order to gain the demon's short-lived power. Not only is it an enemy of humanity, but it is also an enemy of the Orc Empire, and the ground spokesman of Geush, the Emperor of the Orc Empire, Korqin, will never allow this to happen again.
"I'm afraid that the slain swordsman has something to do with the demon, so its body can't be sent back to you for the time being." Cecil lightly rejected the request.
Catred didn't dwell too much on this issue, and immediately changed the subject: "In this case, then the corpse will be handed over to Baron Augustine, I believe that the Baron will not use him to collude with the demons, the main purpose of my visit this time is to invite the Baron to meet the shaman of our tribe in the Artis Glade, and discuss everyone's peace talks."
"Peace talks? You have entered our borders, invaded the Artis Glades, and attacked our inhabitants to kill people everywhere. Now you want to make peace with me? Don't you think you're a little ridiculous? Instead of making peace with us, you should immediately withdraw from the Artis Glade and return to your orc empire. If that's the case, we can not blame the past, even if it's the body of that sword hero, I can consider returning it to you. Of course, Cecil will not go back to peace talks, and no one knows whether his safety can be guaranteed when he reaches other people's territory, not to mention that he has no right and does not want to negotiate peace with them in this matter. So without hesitation, he rejected Catryde.
Cartryde said with a smile: "Lord Augustine's attitude is admirable, but do you want to be a little realistic. ”
"What? Is there anything unrealistic about me? Cecil asked quietly.
"As far as I know, there are only about 10 people in you who came to Bone Tooth City this time, and there are only 2 strong people above the Holy Rank, although I don't know how you won the battle against Alenx, but if we attack with all our strength, I'm afraid that you, the Baron, will be sacrificed in a day when you arrive at the station, our tribe in the Artis Glade still has at least 100 or more adult warriors of the Orc Clan, our shaman is a legendary-level powerhouse, and we have at least five Holy Rank powerhouses, They are all survived by the orc empire, and their strength is extremely strong, if this is a tough match, you are definitely not an opponent. Cartred said calmly, not in the slightest fluster.
Cecil was also shocked when he heard this, but he would never be so intimidated by the other party: "Do you know what the consequences of attacking the City Lord's Mansion will be?" You have sent someone to inform the reinforcements of the Blood Eagle Knights, and you will bear the wrath of the Knights? Also, if you really have the ability to eat the City Lord's Mansion so easily, why did you send you to us to sue for peace? ”
Catryde smiled and said, "We have been in Artis Glade for more than one day, if the Blood Eagle Knights really want to expel us, we don't have to wait for you to ask for help, your human alliance has just experienced the battle of the Demon Gate, and we also know a little about the losses of the Blood Eagle Knights." This knight definitely didn't want to wade into this muddy water now, after all, he was dealing with an orc tribe, and he himself was not that sure. ”
"As for why we are coming to the peace talks, I admit that we really don't want to make a big deal of it, because the tribe is really weak right now, and we don't want to add new casualties at all. But if you think that we are afraid of you because of this, then you are very wrong. "Catryde spoke very firmly, as if he was holding a pearl of wisdom.
Cecil had to admit that the other party had completely captured his pain points, the other party's analysis was reasonable, his own strength was still too far behind the entire tribe of the other party, and if he faced it hard, the biggest loss would definitely be himself. But he will definitely not agree to go to Artis Glade to negotiate with the orcs because of this, not to mention that if this kind of thing is spread to the kingdom, it is a big crime for him, even if it is in a private relationship, Cecil will definitely not want to negotiate peace with the other party. That would be tantamount to allowing the orcs to continue to inhabit the Artis glade, and then have to come out and slaughter the people under his rule every now and then, how could Cecil bear it?
"If you think that you can force me to obey in this way, then you are wrong, you can go back and let your entire clan kill you, when it comes to the strength of the book, it is naturally in your possession, but I myself have experienced many battles in which the weak defeated the strong, and I know that the battle is not as simple as you see on the surface, otherwise it is me who will die now instead of this Alenx, right? So if you do want to call, things may not go as you want. Cecil was adamant in his rejection of Cartryde.
