Chapter 92: Plausible
The scene suddenly froze.
Luckily, Luna saw a lot of cold things when she was by her second sister's side, and calmly greeted Her Royal Highness "Alice" from the royal family of Gelaru.
The group entered the banquet hall smoothly, but the atmosphere was faintly strange.
Her Royal Highness Alice tasted the various delicacies of the Emerald City very politely and was amazed by it. Some of the dishes were made by Roger himself, and the taste was absolutely top-notch.
However, Vivian and the others were a little unable to swallow, and under the scorching eyes of the friends led by Roger, Vivian and the others kept their heads down and ate the food, and never dared to raise their heads.
Charlotte Saudgail, who was next to Alice, had a good time. Charlotte wasn't actually a full member of the mission. However, as Alice's own sister, with the approval of King Lance, she became the little tail of her sister.
It's hard to come out to play, Charlotte has had a lot of fun along the way, and now at this feast, she is also the happiest eater.
Garon, Elsa and the others were eating delicious food, and they looked up at Vivien and the others from time to time.
Elsa and the others didn't remember when they first fought with Vivien, but when they saw Alice, they immediately remembered the group of adventurers they met when they secretly ran to meet Roger.
Then the friends looked at Roger in unison, and then Luna stared back directly very covertly, so now the friends are staring at Vivien and the others.
Roger looked casual on the surface, but secretly kept observing Alice, and the more he looked at it, the more he frowned.
In fact, there was still a prince in the mercenary kingdom, but that Alice's eldest brother was assassinated by the demons in the demon disaster ten years ago, and unfortunately died.
As a result, Alice became the current first heir of the mercenary kingdom, and her sister was obviously too young to be an adult when the demon disaster came, let alone inherit the throne of Gelaru.
Anyway, he is the only suitable heir to the mercenary kingdom now, and Roger can faintly feel that the momentum of a legendary-level powerhouse is looming over the banquet hall, obviously the guard sent by King Lance.
But now Roger is in no mood to pay attention to that legendary guard, after all, there are too many anomalies in Alice now.
It hasn't been long since the last time she was separated from Alice and her group, but Alice's strength has already reached the level 20 cap, and she is only one step away from becoming a legend.
And Vivian and the others have also improved a lot, but they are not as exaggerated as Alice.
If the change in strength can be explained by the secret method of the royal family, then the various changes in Alice's personality and even habits are very incredible.
Unlike the swaggering female man when we first met, Alice is now a model of nobility, even compared to Luna!
Every move is polite and courteous, which fully meets the requirements of the nobles for etiquette, and the confident and positive look, majestic style, makes Alice look particularly heroic, even in the face of Luna, who was born in the elf royal family, the noble and elegant bearing is not at all down.
It's like a completely different person.
And Alice's eyes looking at Roger and the others were also quite flat, completely looking at strangers. However, the great sword that Roger had given her was still in the hands of the guards behind her.
Judging from the reactions of Vivian and the others, they obviously knew the reason.
But what's going on?
Roger muttered to himself, and suddenly noticed that there seemed to be an extra ...... on the top of Alice's head Silly hair?
The dumb hair, which had been swaying, seemed to notice that Roger had noticed it, and it actually curled up on its own.
It's more conspicuous, dumbfounded.
Roger suddenly had doubts in his heart, but he forced himself to suppress the doubts in his heart and did not ask directly.
After all, Vivien and the others didn't explain it to him, maybe there were secrets of the royal family of Gelaru hidden in it.
Although he was still quite confused in his heart, Roger temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart and recommended the dishes he admired to Vivian and the others.
In any case, the most important thing is to entertain these envoys now, and as for all the abnormalities in Alice, it will be necessary to inquire about it when the time comes.
After Roger temporarily let go of the confusion in his heart and began to recommend some dishes to Vivian and the others, the atmosphere of the banquet finally barely returned to normal, and Vivian and the others gradually let go of their hands and feet to eat and drink.
However, Roger, who had also begun to enjoy the food himself, did not notice that His Royal Highness Alice, who had noticed the overly obvious change in the atmosphere during the banquet, glanced at him a few times intentionally or unintentionally.
In the next process, Roger didn't go to mix, and went straight back to the hut to rest.
Luna, who represents the Night Elves, has successfully concluded an alliance with the kingdom of Gelaru, represented by Alice. In fact, the Kingdom of Gelaru may not be able to see the strength of the Night Elves, after all, the existence of the legendary class "Suzaku" has not yet been officially confirmed, and it is more likely to look at the face of the Elf Clan.
After all, no matter what, Luna is always the princess of the elves. Even after Luna founded the Night Elves Clan, she was still a member of the Elven royal family.
In addition to coming to inquire about the information of "Suzaku", the scheming Second Princess Royal Highness came to support Luna and show the sovereignty of the elves over the night elves.
Although Roger and Luna, with the power of the goddess of nature and the moon god, announced the formation of the Night Elves to all the powers, the reason for the Night Elves' claim of independence has always been: a new elven branch established by vengeful elves to fight the treacherous drows.
The true reason for the establishment of the Night Elves has always been known only to the upper echelons of the Elven Race.
After all, the elven leadership's indifferent treatment of Roger and Luna led to Luna's attack, and as a result, the children of nature and the darling of the moon became angry and independent, which would really make the elves lose their faces.
And when dealing with official business, the second princess Miria is a very powerful politician. But when the official business is done, for Luna, she is the kind second sister again.
When Luna, Anne and the others negotiated the covenant with Her Royal Highness Alice, the second sister appeared very indifferently and whispered to Luna for a while.
She didn't say anything to Alice at all, but Her Royal Highness Alice, who saw the second princess of the elf clan appearing, took the initiative to take a big step back from the conditions of the covenant, so the covenant was signed smoothly. And the envoys of Geralu, who had signed the covenant, did not stay for two more days, and left the Emerald City on the same day.
Granny and the others originally seemed to have something to say to Roger, but after being silent for a long time, they finally didn't tell Roger the truth, so they left in silence.
During this period, from beginning to end, Her Royal Highness Milia did not have any contact with Roger, even after guessing that "Suzaku" was Roger, Her Royal Highness the Second Princess did not meet Roger.
In fact, since Luna and Roger met, Roger had never had direct contact with Her Royal Highness the Second Princess, at most, he had only seen her from afar.
It is said that because Her Royal Highness Miria, the second princess, has been deceived by humans in the past, she has always disagreed with Luna and Roger being together. The elven royal family's most opposition to the marriage of Luna and Roger is not Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who has always been strong on the surface, but Her Royal Highness the second princess, who is constantly opposing this matter in secret, soft on the outside and rigid on the inside.
However, due to Luna's attack, it is unlikely that Her Highness Milia will continue to hinder the two.
After all, Luna and Roger had even held a soul fusion ceremony, and her objection was meaningless.
And with the secret support of Her Royal Highness the Second Princess of the Elven Clan, Luna, Anne and the others successfully entertained the envoys of various forces who came to "congratulate".
And the envoys of various forces finally left helplessly one by one after barely staying in the Emerald City for a few more days.
The current Emerald City has completely blocked the inner city due to the attack of the envoys of the mercenary kingdom, and most of the industrial facilities in the outer city have not been developed externally. And although the Emerald City has a variety of specialties, none of them are open to the messengers who came to congratulate them this time.
Obviously, every house in Emerald City has a variety of fruits and vegetables that can be eaten, but there are no specialties in this category that are not found in the market; Obviously, the facilities of the Emerald City have a lot of "connotation" at a glance, but the guards of the Emerald City always use the attack on the mercenary kingdom as an excuse, and these strange facilities are forbidden to enter; Obviously, there are high-level and top-level troops such as the ninth-order dragon clan, but it is the moonblade dancers who always play the "chengguan" brand to deal with disputes.
Indeed, the Night Elves can't say anything bad about the hospitality of these envoys, and the food, shelter and use are all of the top, which can definitely satisfy the envoys who come here. But in addition to the formal banquets, the envoys from the major forces had problems even eating: the market in the Emerald City was full of fruits, not to mention meat, not even skins.
Although they can eat very well when they participate in the banquet, these envoys can't go to the reception banquet of other forces to eat and drink, right?
After staying for a few more days under the pretext of nostalgia for food or visiting the Emerald City, the various forces called the messenger and the secret agent who could not find a suitable breakthrough finally ran out one by one: if they didn't leave, they would really not be able to hold on to food if they didn't even have a place to buy food, and only the elves could not get tired of eating fruit every day.
So after the Emerald City higher-ups sent off the envoys from all sides, Her Royal Highness Miria of the Elves also said goodbye to Luna and left with the Elven ace diplomatic corps.
As soon as the elven envoys left, Tuna returned to Elemental City through the tunnel with the elemental legion above the high-level, in fact, the elemental legion had actually stayed underground in the Elemental City all along. And the high-level and top-level troops of the Emerald City also emerged from the alchemy lair, and the entire Emerald City quickly became lively.
After the Drow Elves outside Luye City were repulsed, the refugees who originally belonged to Shenmu City and did not join the Night Elves were sent to Luye City. The current Emerald City is full of people from the Night Elf Clan.
And in order to make the envoys of all parties who came to investigate misestimate the strength of the Emerald City, most of the Night Elves had already entered the dwarven residential area under the Emerald City through the tunnels, and most of the important facilities were temporarily closed.
The fruits sold in the market were actually just for those "messengers" to see, and when the market closed, these fruits became the after-dinner snacks of the underground Night Elf clansmen.
It is precisely because most of the clan and part of the army have gone underground that this will make some areas of the inner city too lax, and those ninjas will have the opportunity to cause trouble.
Of course, this arrangement is not only to hide the true strength of the Emerald City, but more importantly, it is actually to cover a special building that has not yet been completed.
A miraculous building based on the Star of Creation: The Grace of the Goddess of Nature.
The unfinished building that towered over the Tree of Life was the reason why Roger and Luna were determined to get the emissaries out of the way as soon as possible.
After all, such a miracle building is enough for the alchemy troops in the Emerald City to grow up quickly, and it is really too important for the new Night Elf clan now.
After the emissaries left, there was no movement from the Night Elves, and they spent five months in peace.
