233: Everyone is a bridge to happiness (2)
Leaning out of the carriage window, Marin saw Cohen at the entrance to the dungeon not far away, whistled, and Milani, who was combing his hair, jumped back into Marin's hood.
Straightening his collar, Marin pushed the door open and jumped out after the carriage stopped.
"Why didn't Logan come?" Cohen was dressed in a very formal adventure attire today, and he noticed that Marin was coming alone.
As if out of curiosity, he asked.
Marin shook his head: "This guy can't come, he twisted his waist last night." ”
"Oh, this curious bastard, I've met his girlfriend, good boy!" Cohen, who pointed at Marin, smiled like a pig's head blooming in boiling water.
"Let's go." Marin smiled and patted him on the back: "I took care of your affairs here earlier, I still have dinner to catch up." ”
"Dinner?" The two of them began to move forward, and Cohen asked as if in passing.
"The ambassador of the elves." Marin was a little upset when he mentioned this, because he had thought about it a lot, and he really didn't expect that it would be the elven ambassador who would come to him - in his imagination, halflings and dwarves should be the first to come, after all, he had business dealings with both sides, and the dwarves had the closest relationship with him.
But he didn't expect that after taking Matilda back to the Harvest Goddess Hotel, before the girl could finish taking a bath, the elf ambassador came to the door, and a high elf language made Marin's head dizzy - he could indeed understand the high elf language, this was a blessing from Lorraine to him in this other timeline, but you don't have to say so fast as an ambassador.
Marin talked to him for a long time, and then he understood why Marin didn't sell it to them, and then they said that they would go to the party together in a few days.
Cohen expressed his surprise at the Elven Ambassador: "You're really interested, the Elven Ambassador came to you for business and invited you to dinner. ”
"Well, it's actually the Elven and Mage Tower." Marin was a little puzzled at first that the elves pulled everyone in the mage tower in, but when he understood that the high-level mages of the mage tower were at least legendary, and they were at least the people of silver, he also somewhat understood - these two families had the strongest demand for mass-produced automatic battle armor, so they formed a group, in the final analysis, they still wanted to get Marin's affirmation before the others.
Or they think that Marin may be made clear by other organizations, and they want to follow Marin to see how he performs.
As for why they didn't send someone to follow over to look at Marin, Marin also expressed a certain puzzlement - you are so anxious and so relieved, what are you thinking?
………………
At the same time, the Elven Ambassador and the Master of the Royal Capital Tower, a branch of the Mage Tower, were drinking tea with a very small lady, sitting at the top of the southern watchtower, which had the tallest tower in the royal capital, and the two legendary characters were not afraid to breathe in front of this lady.
"This time, as a messenger, I have come to see you this time to tell you, who are also elves, and you who are mages, that we have observed traces of Chaos invasions, and before that, at least three outpost invasions were prevented, which is very rare luck." The little lady took a sip of tea, then looked at the tower master of the Mage Tower: "You should know, right." ”
"Yes, ma'am, once in Parol City, once in Fort Carter, once in Silent Hill, two of them were directly related to Mr. Marlin and once indirectly to him." The old tower master said, "We know the promise made by Mr. Marin, and we have informed all the noble mages not to take sides with him in matters involving Mr. Marin. ”
"I know that your Mage Tower is trustworthy, this time I am still here because I am worried that your thirst for knowledge will eventually cause you to split with him, now that the countdown to the invasion is getting closer and closer, I hope you can unite, and the method Marin said is very suitable for you, you should unite, just like when you signed the Civilized Reconciliation Pact with my husband's encouragement, since that sect already thinks it is full-fledged, then let my husband solve it himself." The little lady said with a smile.
The elven ambassador smiled and stroked his chest: "This time, along with that old gentleman, there are also two young elves, we thought that the pursuers would be responsible for strangling them, so we also thought of sending some rangers to help him, and now it seems that those young people can follow your husband's side, it is really their honor." ”
"Madam, we will always remember your kindness." The old tower master stroked his chest.
"You don't need to thank me, my husband only heard that girl's call for justice back then, he came here just to make justice perpetuate, the fight against chaos and death has always been in our daily life, these are just gestures, but after all, we are the existence of the outer plane, if you want to really save this world, you still need to do it yourself." Speaking of this, the little lady turned her head to look at the elf: "And you, the long-eared kind, although I have not heard of Marin's plan, but I have learned more or less about his thoughts, he wants to gather you together, so that you can share this armor, and all organizations will be able to obtain all the knowledge, which will benefit you all." ”
"Yes, madam, I do understand Mr. Marin's thoughts, but madam, we elves will fight eternally on the front line of the confrontation against Chaos, and among humans, there is too much uncertainty." The elven ambassador lowered his head: "Madam, our loyalty to this world, you and your husband, haven't you all seen it in the eyes of you for five hundred years, we are trustworthy, and Mr. Marin feels ...... I think he should know us better, and although he has giant blood, he looks more like an elf, doesn't he? ”
"That's why we're giving you such an opportunity, whether it's humans, dwarves or halflings, they all have their own unique knowledge and heritage, don't you want to learn from each other, or do you think you elves are afraid of being overtaken by the people of black iron in this regard." The little lady smiled and stretched out her hand, and one of her little fairy servants came to him with an acorn in her arms: "It's a fruit, I think you'll need it, right?" ”
"Madame...... I understand, your kindness, we must remember it in our hearts. The elven ambassador stretched out a trembling hand to catch the fruit, and he put it in front of him: "Madam, if Chaos invades, the elves will form an alliance with the western countries where Sidney is united according to the covenant, but the eastern countries ......" "There is no need to worry over there, whether it is the people of the southern Tainan or the Yang people, they have their own beliefs, and they have their own proud and fearless beliefs, which are the hymns of mankind itself. ”
With that, the little lady suddenly turned her head to look south.
The Elven Ambassador and the Mage Tata Master also looked over.
"What's the matter, ma'am." The tower master was a little surprised, because he couldn't sense any danger.
"Nothing, just the breath of the son of the deceased...... Listen carefully to Marin's thoughts, and be able to give them to all of you for free as research, his conduct is beyond reproach, so please forget the grievances between your races before him, the dark ages will eventually pass, and the races will work together to save the world, and do not let the torrent of chaos drown it all. The lady turned to look at the two of them: "For the same thing, my sister will coordinate with the dwarves and halflings, and on the human side, our friends will help explain, please rest assured, after Marlin has finished his little work, we will try to arrange your meeting as soon as possible." ”
"Then please Madame."
The two watched the little lady get up, and immediately got up and saluted her chest.
Only when her aura dissipated did the two legends dare to raise their heads.
"Worthy of the wife of Anonymous, she is more powerful than any god I have ever seen in my life, even if this is just one of her...... It's so powerful that I can't even be disrespectful. The old tower lord sighed, and then looked at the elf beside him: "Recently, your materials on your eternal night island about your elven ancient tree have become less and less, I have always thought that you are tightening your exit and preparing for a new wave of death, now it seems that ...... Are your ancient trees really corrupted? ”
"Madame pointed this out today, and I have to admit that it is true, corruption has put our ancient trees in jeopardy, materials have decreased, gentlemen have decreased, our council has banned the sale of materials, and we are crazy to get access to pre-apocalypse technology...... But with it, our ancient trees can be brought back to life. Speaking of this, the ambassador looked at the old tower master: "Your Excellency, I hope you can keep this secret. ”
"Of course, I'm a mage, not a human or halfling with a broken mouth." At this point, the tower master showed a bushy beard peculiar to dwarves in his hood.
"Thank you for your acknowledgment, Lord Tower, then, about the lunchtime banquet......" "Think of it as an effort to bring us into contact with Mr. Marlin, Mr. Ambassador, Madame makes it clear that this child is like a combination between you and us."
At this point, the elf and the dwarf smiled wryly at the same time.
If the world needs to judge the most stubborn people, then the elves and dwarves will be a little equal in this regard.
And if one had to be judged, it would be the standard answer to let a dwarf and an elf fall in love and have a child.
Although there are no dwarves and elves who love each other, even they will smile helplessly when they hear this cold joke - because this joke is actually a cold truth.
And when they heard that Marin, a child, did have such a strong stubborn heart, in addition to helplessness, they sighed and rejoiced.
Because only such stubborn people will not be deceived by the temptations of this world.
