Section 272, Sudden Negotiations
The magic raven flew down to Dante's shoulder, a communication from Gade.
Gad said, "Master, there is an important situation, and Fording has sent a messenger to say that he wants to see you. ”
"What?" When Dante heard this, he was very surprised and hurriedly asked, "What?" You say Ferdin? Is it that paladin from the Kingdom of Light? ”
"Yes, master!" Gade said in a very firm tone, "That's that Ferdin." His messenger also seems to be in a hurry, but his attitude is not bad, not arrogant, and it seems that he really needs to find you urgently. ”
"......" Dante was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Up to now, all kinds of twists and turns have come too quickly, and he is not mentally prepared for it, and he feels a little incomprehensible.
Why did Fording suddenly send a messenger to him? What is he going to do? Is there any trickery?
"Master ......" just as Dante was thinking about it, Gollum walked up to him and whispered to him, "Let's hurry." Miss Ash doesn't have enough time. ”
Right! Dante was reminded by this, came back to his senses, nodded, and said, "The whole army will return to the city immediately!" ”
……
In the lobby on the first floor of the Demon King's Castle......
Dante and the messenger sat facing each other, looking at each other.
"What are you doing here?" Dante looked coldly at the messenger and asked, "I'm curious, what is the urgency of Fordin's enemies to come to him?" Did he get water in his head? Hehe......"
After listening to Dante's provocative words, the messenger replied with an unchanged face: "Monsieur Dante. My host, Ferdin, would like to be able to have a face-to-face conversation with you. Both sides do not bring their subordinates, just one-on-one dialogue. Address, my host chose a suitable location. ”
Then. He took out a map from under his clothes, presented it to Dante with both hands, and said, "The meeting place is marked on this map, please look at it." ”
Ged walked up to the messenger, took the map, unfolded it for a moment, and then walked back to Dante. Hand him the map and say, "Master, the map is fine." The meeting place is clearly marked on it. Please see. ”
Dante took the map, glanced at it, and saw that the address chosen by Ferdin's meeting was a place on the border of the Holy Light Kingdom, in the wilderness. It's quite a long way from Gear Town. But it is convenient to go directly from the main road.
He returned the map to Gad and motioned for it to be returned to the messenger, to whom he said, "No." I can't accept this address! ”
"Huh?" When the messenger heard Dante's refusal, he asked in surprise, "Mr. Dante, this place has been carefully chosen by my master." But the interests of both parties have been fully considered. The location ......"
"Enough!" Dante directly interrupted the messenger and said. "I don't care how painstaking Ferding is. He just made me suffer a lot, why should I trust him now? You say, what the hell is he going to do? ”
When the messenger saw that Dante was a little angry, he bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Dante, please calm your anger." The two countries are fighting each other, each for its own master, and you must know this truth better than anyone else. Right? ”
Dante saw that the messenger spoke more tactfully, and could not find anything wrong with it for the time being, so he took over and said, "Just say what Fordin means?" What is he trying to talk to me about? You also know that each is his master, and I don't trust him now, and we don't need his help, so why should I agree to meet him? Well? Is there any reason for this? ”
After listening to Dante's question, the messenger was silent for a moment, as if thinking about how to answer. After a few seconds, he looked up and replied, "Mr. Dante, please forgive me if what I say is offensive." ”
"Okay, no problem!" Dante nodded and said, "You say." The two countries compete with each other, and they do not cut each other. ”
The messenger coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "My master, Foding, wants to negotiate with you in order to discuss the matter of attacking the undead army together. In addition......"
He stopped talking, and pretended to be serious: "This cooperation is also related to the fate of your lover, Miss Ash. ”
"......" Dante was both surprised and not surprised when he heard this. It's a very contradictory feeling, but it's also normal. He didn't expect Ash's serious injury to be heard by the Holy Light Kingdom so soon.
If so, Dante could not refuse. Because the Kingdom of Light must know more about the Kingdom of Griffons than he does. At the same time, Ferding must also know about the bottle of Moon Well Water Essence. He took the initiative to ask to negotiate with him, did he want to take the opportunity to deceive?
No, in this way, it is very important to meet with Ferding and explore his reality!
Thinking of this, Dante said to the messenger, "Is that all? Is there anything else going on? ”
"It's gone." The messenger bowed slightly again and said, "I have told you all I know, Mr. Dante. Since we want to be able to negotiate with you, we naturally come with a very sincere attitude. My master, Fortin, told me that Miss Ash needed to be rescued in time, and that she could save something, and you know that you know it better than Mr. Dante, right? ”
"......" Dante did not answer the messenger's words, but looked at him coldly.
Seeing that Dante was silent, the messenger continued: "Mr. Dante, this time I have discussed with you the plan to fight against the undead army, which was also authorized by His Majesty King Urien. My master, Fordin, said that he would not touch anything that could save Miss Ash, but I hope you will lead your army to cooperate with the forces of the Kingdom of Light to attack the undead army. ”
Then the messenger breathed a sigh of relief, spread his hands, and said, "I have said everything I can say." Mr. Dante, would you like to negotiate? Or are there any other requirements? For example, where to negotiate? ”
Dante thought for a moment and said bluntly, "So be it." Since there is some truth in what Fording said, I am willing to negotiate with him, but the place of negotiation must be chosen by me. You go back and tell Fording that if he really wants to work with me, he'll come to Gear Town alone. Cogwheel is a neutral town, so I can't take care of it. In this way, it is more appropriate. ”
When the messenger heard Dante's request, he thought for a moment and said, "This, allow me to go back and report to my master." ”
"You're paying attention!" Dante said to the messenger in a loud voice, "Without the Kingdom of Light, our army can fight the undead alone. Now it's Fording who makes the choice, not me. You go back and tell Fording that it's six o'clock in the afternoon. He must come when you go back, because Ash's time is precious. I don't want to waste time. I'll be waiting for him in Cogwheel Town, and if he doesn't arrive at six o'clock tomorrow morning, I'll be out tomorrow with my army!" ”
"Alright......," said the courier, nodding helplessly, "then, I'll go back now." ”
"Let's go, don't send it." (To be continued......)
