Chapter 392: They Should Really Value Us, Right?
After all, the important negotiators from the tribal countries did not really circumnavigate Timerles on foot, perhaps satisfied with the embarrassment and embarrassment that the other party unintentionally revealed, and at the beckoning of Diana, a group of undead creatures who did not need to be paid and never felt tired appeared in fancy palanquins.
Compared with the horse-drawn carriage, which has the highest popularity, the human-powered sedan chair is undoubtedly a means of transportation that has been obsolete, even if it is decorated with great magnificence and pomp...... After all, unlike a horse-drawn carriage, a sedan chair has no carriage, and if you ride on it, it is generally equivalent to having no privacy during the journey.
As far as the fox elder remembers, the last time he saw this kind of sixteen sedan chair should have been seven years ago, when the tribal country was in the twentieth annual sacrifice ceremony, in order to pay tribute to the ancestors of the past, the offerings at that time were transported in this way, but at that time, he could not imagine that he would be able to personally experience the situation of being in the spotlight as an offering to the ancestors of Xie Zu at that time.
No, it can't be said to be eye-catching, but it's actually more like a warm gaze out of pity.
The situation is better when sightseeing around the outer city, at most the passing merchant groups or adventurers will point from afar, because there is a knight order as an isolation, so what the other party said is unknown to the fox elder, but this kind of self-deception of holding his ears and refusing to accept the truth was finally broken by the passers-by who came and went on the street after entering Timles City.
Unlike when they were operating outside the city, due to the size of the streets, the accompanying knights were left with only a small team to act together with the fox elders and a few other visiting ambassadors, and this diversion inevitably led to the narrowing of the protective net, and the gossip that had been separated from each other also came.
"Who are they, they look amazing."
"Don't you know? I heard that it was sent by the tribal countries to negotiate. Don't forget that Timleth was Rococona's domain, but it was only later taken over by the bard's troops that the flag was changed...... But none of this has anything to do with us ordinary people."
"That's right, just to watch the excitement."
"Then again, what kind of trick is our lord doing this time? Looking at the pomp and circumstance of the sixteen-person sedan chair, it is estimated that it is enough to welcome the orc king."
"That said, but visually speaking, it's too vulgar. It really gives people the sense of déjà vu of the nouveau riche, and I really admire that old man can sit on it without changing his face......
Feeling the gaze of passers-by, the corners of the fox elder's eyes twitched slightly, as a Wenchen who has been active behind the scenes for many years, but now he has been pushed to the stage, the gap between the two even if he has many years of political career, he feels a little uncomfortable, let alone those juniors who just come out to see the world.
"Silence."
"Avoidance."
The accompanying skeleton soldiers set up signs on both sides of the line as they entered the city, but that was all they did, beyond the literal warning. I didn't see these undead creatures, showing the slightest intention of actively dispersing the onlookers.
In terms of pure greeting, the other party did indeed do an impeccable job, but it was those who did not know why there was no need to store too many pomp and circumstance, first look at the skeleton that was carrying a basket of flowers at the back of the line and constantly scattering petals around, and then look at the person in front of him who was carrying a gong, and every few steps he would tear his voice and shout: "The weather is dry, be careful of the fire candles." Thanks to these superfluous fellows, the visitors of the tribal kingdom could not help but have the illusion that they had become circus clowns who were full of treasures in the eyes of others.
He's humiliating us!
The orcs from the royal capital had this thought in their hearts. But then he spontaneously rejected it.
Since it was only a small force, it was not difficult to investigate Xu Mo's intelligence. The fall of Timelet has been a major issue in the tribal states in recent times, and the same consensus has been reached on this force, both from the military and the civilian population.
Except for a few of the most sophisticated combat powers, the force value of this force is not worth a damn at all.
In the eyes of the world who do not know anything about the Demon King City, the famous beheader is undeniably the highest force of this force, although he has had a rather bad attitude since they met. But as the most powerful, he still stays near the envoys, and serves as a tour guide with a straight face and a centaur paladin.
In order to receive visitors, to transfer their greatest safety and security away from their side, from the perspective of the guests, this is obviously a great sincerity on the part of the host, as for those non-slang and tiresome pomp...... Synthesis of the professionalism of the bard. I'm afraid that this is the result of the sudden onset of the other party's strange beauty, even though this reason sounds quite unreliable, but compared with the other party's brainlessness, just plainly trying to provoke the evil feelings of the tribal countries, this statement is obviously more reasonable.
Diana, who was walking beside the sixteen sedan chairs with axes and guns in hand, suddenly stretched out her free hand, made a gesture to stop advancing, and then said to the fox clan elder with a little apology, "I'm sorry, can I delay you here for a few minutes?"
"Ah, it doesn't matter." Waving his hand, he noticed that the centaur girl who had been detailing the various facilities and changes in the city along the way suddenly restrained her smile, revealing a rather unhappy expression, and the fox clan elder couldn't help but be a little curious while agreeing to the other party's request, what happened to make this paladin, who was as an ambassador, take the initiative to ask to temporarily relieve his duties.
"Thank you for your understanding." Nodding to the fox elder, Diana crossed the road deliberately given way by the knights of the tribal state, and came to the street merchant on the side, but she unexpectedly did not talk to the merchant, but stood in front of the carriage that was unloading the goods, and with a solemn face, she took out a stack of red paper from the waist bag behind her, took a pen and quickly wrote a few words on it, and finally tore it off and pasted it to the front of the car.
The elder of the fox clan narrowed his eyes, studied the content written on the red slip, and read word by word: "Parking illegally on the red line, a fine of fifty silver coins, please pay the fine at the city office within five days from now on, and the Timles City Management Brigade will go up."
"Well, they should really value us, right?" At the same time, the visitors of the Rococona Tribal Kingdom wavered a little from their previous judgments. (To be continued......)
PS: Thank you for the reward of "Forgotten River" and the commuter pass of "xanxuas".
Although it is said that it is during the period of recuperation, for some reason, I always feel that the midterm examination of business seems to be more brain-burning
