Chapter 489: Maximize Benefits! (3rd Update)
Bidding farewell to Sivana and coming out of the elven castle, Sun Ran returned to Highland Town with the cavalry...... No, it should be called Highland City by now.
"Eddie, you go and convene the roundtable, I have something important to discuss." Sun Ran said with a smile.
Eddie took the order and left.
Half a day later, in the Hall of the Round Table in Highland City, all thirteen so-called members of the Round Table had arrived.
Originally, there were only twelve people, and they were all samurai, but now there is one more, and it is the only big VIP among the highlanders, Moses. He is in charge of equipping the Highlander's Tinder, who is also very smart, and the game company hints from time to time that he has even begun to explore the method of refining magical pure potions, and it is said that there has been a lot of progress.
In recent years, Moses has become more and more important, and has surpassed Monsa to become the second person in the highlands, and his status is only below Sun Ran.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Sun Ran began to express his idea of forming an alliance with the elves to fight against the Northern Dark Legion together.
Unexpectedly, when he said this, he was immediately opposed by almost everyone.
Monsa retorted: "Chief, the elves are extremely arrogant, how can they really ally themselves with us? They must have wanted us to die for them, just like they used to! ”
"Chief, those elves are so despicable, you can't believe it!" Eddie also said.
"Chief, most of the highlanders used to be slaves of the elves, and they didn't have a good impression of the elves, and in recent years, because of the matter of intermarriage, the situation has improved a lot, but if we fight for the elves, even if we agree, most of the magic warriors will not agree." Alan calmly analyzed and said the biggest obstacle this time.
The Terrans, who were once slaves of the elves, could not help them even if the elves had the heart to form an alliance.
Only Moses said, "Chief, I feel we must form an alliance!" ”
Sun Ran smiled and said, "Give your reason." ”
Moses nodded. Standing up and looking around at the warriors: "Over the years, I have been focusing on the study of magic, and the deeper I study, the more I feel that the depth of magic is unfathomable, and the more I feel that the foundation of our human race is shallow. As the chief said. Exchange the magical knowledge of the elves for our assistance, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”
Seeing that all the samurai were a little disapproving, he knew that these samurai had not yet realized the importance of magic, so he spoke: "Everyone here is a magical warrior, do you think the pygmy fire and magic power are pure potions?" ”
"Very good."
"It's priceless."
"It is the foundation of our highlanders!"
This is the consensus of everyone.
Moses nodded, "That's right." But I've heard that the gnomes give us the worst and most basic seed of fire, and they have an even better seed of flame, the seed of destruction. Seeds of Doom. The best fire, if ordinary people take it, they can be directly promoted to second-level warriors, and the magic power generated is also very pure, and they will be promoted to the level of fifth-level warriors within twenty years, and if they are talented, they can be directly promoted to demigods! ”
When Moses said this, all the warriors were amazed.
Monsa asked, "Is it really that good?" ”
"Really! My dwarf mentor told me. If the dwarf clan did their best, they could forcibly push a gifted samurai to the realm of demigods within three years. But what about us? We can't do it. I don't even dare to think about it! We're only going to refine the most basic flame seeds. So, I think the boss's decision is very wise, this time I must cooperate with the elves to get more magical mysteries! ”
The warriors were silent, and as they listened to Moses' words, they once again felt the great gap between the highlanders and the demigods.
Demigods. The warriors of the human race dare not think of a realm, even the leader is only a fifth-level warrior, but a dwarf can create a demigod in three years, which is terrifying.
Sun Ran glanced at Moses appreciatively, this big VIP effectively cleared the resistance for him. He concluded: "Magic is the true foundation of a race. Do you think we're going to make an alliance? ”
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
When the samurai figured it out, they immediately let go of their prejudices against the elves, and in the hearts of the first generation of highlanders, there was nothing more important than strengthening the strength of the race.
Sun Ran smiled, clasped his hands and put them on the table, and said with a smile: "We have to cooperate, but we can't cooperate easily, we must let the elves beg us to cooperate in order to strive for the greatest interests of our clan." ”
Everyone looked at Sun Ran.
Moses may be the most magically proficient of the Highlanders, and he is also very intelligent, but their king, Thal, has true wisdom and can always lead the Highlanders to a better future.
This is the belief in the hearts of every Highland people since the development of Highland Village for so many years.
Sun Ran continued: "The current situation is very clear. In the battle of the gray pine forest, the elves killed a million young men in the battle, and the elves have a request for us. ”
Hearing the number of one million, the members of the round table present all gasped, which was more than the number of the entire highlanders, and they were all strong young people, which was indeed tragic, and also made everyone afraid of the power of the dark giants of the north.
Even the elves were beaten into this embarrassment, and they highlanders went to fight in the past, can they do it?
Sun Ran looked at everyone and said solemnly: "Don't back down. Remember, behind the elves are us Highlanders. The elves are defeated, and we're doomed too! This is another reason why an alliance is necessary. ”
Alliance, one is magic, and the other is cold lips and teeth.
The round-table warriors present were all smart people carefully selected and promoted by Sun Ran, and when the Taoist ideal understood, he did not hesitate.
It's imperative to form an alliance with the elves!
Seeing the determination on everyone's faces, Sun Ran continued: "But now, the elves can rely on the Dawn Fortress to last for more than ten years. In the past ten years, we can ask the elves to teach us magic first, and then we will go north to support. ”
Moses asked, "Chief, will the elves suffer this loss?" ”
Sun Ran said with a smile: "The world is very wonderful, as long as you master the laws of its operation, then everything can be easily accomplished." That's how we do it......"
After a period of deliberation, a detailed plan was released, and the samurai of the round table knew it, and each of them began to go to various places with the plan of the leader.
…….
On the first day, there was a rumor from Highland City that he wanted to form an alliance with the elves. When the news of going north to fight against the black giant, all of a sudden, the highlanders were in an uproar, and there were voices of opposition everywhere.
"Die for the elves? Never! "That's the voice of the Highland militia.
"I've sold half my life for the elves, and those vampires won't want to take another grain from me!" This is the voice of a farmer.
"Alliance? Joke! The businessmen said the same thing.
The vast majority were opposed, with only a faint voice in Highland still insisting on the alliance. But the voice was too weak, and it was easily drowned out in the tide of opposition, and slowly, Highland City fell silent.
Time passed day by day, the situation did not improve, and in the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
During this time, Sun Ran still stood still, getting up early every day to practice martial arts. Then he went around the territory, practiced martial arts again at night, and finally rested, and lived a very regular life, and he seemed to have completely forgotten about the alliance.
Half a month later, in the evening, Sun Ran practiced martial arts in the school field as usual, and suddenly heard a slight voice behind him. When I turned my head, I saw Sivana standing on the school grounds.
"Why are you here?" Sun Ran asked 'strangely'.
In the darkness of the night. Sivana's eyes flashed with a silver glow of magic, and she said angrily, "You're so interested, have you just forgotten about the alliance?" ”
As soon as he said this, Sun Ran suddenly looked distressed, spread his hands and sighed: "You saw it." My people simply do not agree to an alliance. I'm the leader, but I can't do it against everyone's will. On that day, I overestimated my influence among the Highlanders, and I was wrong to propose an alliance. I'm sorry. ”
Sivana fell silent.
She waited for half a month. I also know everything about the highlanders. At first, Sahr did talk about the alliance, and it was true that all the highlanders were against it, and Sahr did not lie.
"What then?" Sivana was troubled, she was also a lord once, and she knew that a lord could not cover the sky with one hand.
But she had already written to Labicillin about what had happened, and Labucillin was very happy when she got the news, and replied that she must win over this support army at all costs. From Labcillin's attitude, you can see how embarrassed the elves are, they are simply beaten all over the ground looking for teeth.
Now that things were so yellow, she felt very ashamed and didn't know how to explain it to Labucillin.
Sun Ran spoke: "There is a way." ”
"Speak quickly!"
Sun Ran put the sword in his hand back on the weapon rack, wiped his sweat, sat on the stone chair beside him, and invited: "Sit down first, don't stand all the time." ”
Sivana sat down.
Sun Ran laughed, "My people's prejudice against elves comes from painful memories of being slaves in the past. To dispel this prejudice, the elves must show their sincerity. ”
"But many of the elves in the forest have already intermarried with the human race, isn't this sincere enough?" Sivana asked rhetorically.
"Hehe, the female elves are all my samurai, and they are also the upper class of the highlanders, and they fancy the samurai because they can make them live a good life. Those middle-class merchants, low-class farmers, they don't look down on them. Sun Ran sighed.
"What the hell do you mean?" Sivana frowned, this Thal always likes to go around and around when he speaks, making it difficult to figure out what he thinks.
"I mean it very clearly, that is, to let the merchants and farmers also feel the sincerity of the elves." Sun Ran said.
"Do you want the elves to marry the merchant farmer?" Sivana was already a little angry.
"No, no, no." Sun Ran shook his head and said his true purpose: "We still have more than 50,000 militiamen, they are all ordinary people, most of them are the sons of merchants and farmers, we can't provide so many fires to activate their magic power for the time being, it's a pity." I think it would be enough if the elves could teach us magic first, help us increase the speed of refining fire, and let all militias activate magic as well. ”
Sivana finally understood, and sneered: "Heh~ You mean that we will teach magic first, and then you will send troops?" ”
"That's right." Sun Ran nodded.
Sivana was furious and looked at Sun Ran coldly: "Young man, don't you think your idea is ridiculous? If you Highlanders don't trust us at all, how can we trust you? ”
Sun Ran's attitude also cooled: "Let's be honest, since I was shot by that elf, I just don't trust you!" ”
When he said this, he immediately poked at Sivana's soft underbelly, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! Where is your alchemy room? I personally teach your magic apprentices, and if you don't send troops by then, the demigods of my clan will surely set foot in the Highland City! ”
"It's an honor, Lord Sivana!" Sun Ran squinted and smiled.
When he smiled like this, Sivana realized that she had been trapped, but she couldn't help it, the situation was stronger than people, and she now had a request from the highlanders, so she could only endure it.
"Say yes. When the first Great Sorcerer appears, you must send troops! "Sivana set a condition.
"Arcanist!"
"You are insatiable, without twenty years, there will be no Arcanist in the Terrans!"
"But as far as I know, it only took you ten years. Today, are you still underestimating the wisdom of our highlanders? Sun Ran said.
“…… Okay, then ten years, I'll only teach for ten years! Sivana gritted her teeth, she could only hope that the Fortress of Dawn would hold up.
"It's a deal!" Sun Ran squinted and smiled. (To be continued......)
