Wren didn't respond for a long time.

This is not a problem with a single Mithril mine, the mine is in Congatro, and it is impossible to send people to go over and take it back directly, it will inevitably be regarded as an invasion by the Congatro Kingdom, causing a war that will engulf the entire subcontinent.

A kingdom with a territory of a quarter of the empire, even if the population is only tens of millions due to the cold climate, has the power and resources that it can not easily oppose.

However, 50,000 pounds of source crystal ore per year makes people have to be excited.

Without refusing, he asked, "What is the situation with that Mithril mine, and why do you say that it originally belonged to your property?"

Emily beamed.

She didn't hesitate, and said seriously: "My lord, you should have guessed my identity a long time ago, right?"

Wren chuckled, "I knew about it the day I hired the Dragonstone Mercenary Group. ”

Emilys was slightly stunned, she thought that Wren had slowly guessed it in the later contact, but she didn't expect to be seen through on the first day, very unexpectedly, shocked and shocked at the same time by Wren's keen insight, and more cautious about what she was going to say next.

She stood up and introduced herself with a solemn expression: "My lord, I am the last dragonborn of the Drogonburg family of Congartaro, the overthrown King Siria is my father, my full name is Emilys Drogonburg, and I was named the princess of Dragoncrystal Island by my father when I was three years old. ”

After introducing herself, Emilys made a solemn and ancient etiquette to Wren.

A noble temperament radiated in her.

Wren did not sneer, got up and responded, "It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the princess in person," and at the same time, according to the etiquette of the nobles, leaned over and kissed her lightly on the back of her hand.

The roots of Emily's ears were slightly red.

Her demeanor was a little lower, and she shook her head and said, "It's just an empty name, I have never ruled Dragon Crystal Island, I escaped from Congartro when I was five years old, and I have never returned." ”

Wren could understand her situation.

Down-and-out princess, whether it is on Earth or in the world of Erenus, this kind of story is always common, and even some are pleasant.

He smiled, but declined to comment.

Emily regained her mood, sat down, and returned to the topic, "My lord, I said that the Mithril Mine is called the 'Polytosi Mine', it has been found in the territory of our Drogenburg family for less than a hundred years, but the reserves are huge, and I estimate that it can now produce 150,000 pounds of Mithril every year. ”

"Such a large production?" Wren was a little surprised.

Mithril is very low density, tougher than steel, but very light, and extremely energy-malleable, making it the most widely used magical metal.

There are more than twenty types of Mithril alloys in common use alone.

Fifty thousand pounds of Mithril doesn't sound like much, but it's actually a very significant number, more than enough to supply the consumption of Wezeland's floating city.

At the current price of Mithril, the output value of the Polytosi mine is more than three million gold guilders a year, and with the large number of source crystal ores that accompany it, it can almost reach five million gold guilders.

Of course, after deducting the mining cost, the net profit should only be about one million gold dong.

But it's enough to move people's hearts.

Wren was not carried away by the benefits, pondered for a while, and said: "Emilys, to be honest, I really want this Mithril Mine, but with my ability, I'm afraid I can't take it back, let alone help you restore it." ”

Emilys' eyes flickered.

She seemed to have expected Wren's reaction a long time ago, and there was no disappointment on her face, and she said meaningfully: "Lord Lord, I don't want you to directly send troops to conquer Congatro for me, it's not realistic, but your lord can exert his influence......"

Emilys looked up at the ceiling of her bedroom, but her gaze was further away, in the direction of the Floating City of Wezeland.

Wren understood.

What she really wants is to use the power of the Floating City, and even let the Empire intervene.

He is a member of the Council of Six in Wezeland, a student of the Holy Soul Wizard, and a member of the Imperial Council, and the combined of these identities may indeed convince the Floating City to dispatch, or even let the Empire send troops.

But it's only possible, and the chances of success are low.

If the empire sends troops to attack the kingdom of Congatro, it will be a war between two countries, although Emilys has the name of the teacher, and has legal principles, but don't forget that the large-scale war of Erenus is not limited to the struggle of mortals, and there must be the influence of gods behind it.

The beliefs of the Congatro people are scattered, mainly the seven gods, collectively known as the Seven Gods.

The power of the seven gods varies from high to low, the most powerful being the orcs and the god of power "Grossh", the main believers of this god are orcs and many savage races, but in Congatro he has a large number of followers.

The current king of Congatro, Mark Lauberdier, was a follower of Gross, and his entire family, as well as the Duchy's domains, regarded Grosch as orthodox.

In addition, there are "Yuriel", the god of winter and the north wind, "Heim", the god of guardians, "Urels", and so on. The seven families of the Kingdom of Congatro each have their own principality and a god to serve.

The Drogon Dynasty was overthrown, and only Bahamut, the god of the good dragons, was damaged.

In just a few decades, His number of followers in Congatero has dwindled dramatically.

However, this dragon god does not like to interfere in mortal affairs, especially wars between mortals, and he is not very concerned about the human believers of Congatro, and the only thing he values is the dragon believers, so he did not try his best to prevent the fall of the Drogon Castle Dynasty back then.

If the Floating City is dispatched, or if the Empire sends troops, it means that the goddess of magic has set her sights on the tens of millions of mortals in Congatro, and she will definitely be stopped by the gods.

Wars involving the gods are not within her control, or Emilys.

Wren couldn't help but sigh secretly, this woman's wishful thinking is loud, but she is also playing with fire, and if she is not careful, it will be a catastrophe, and she may even affect herself.

He shook his head slowly, "The risk is too great, the difficulty is too high, I advise you to give up." ”

"Your Lord!"

But Emily did not waver, straightened her chest, and said, "I know that your concerns are not as serious as adults think. I only want to take back my rights, restore the rule of the Drogon Castle dynasty, limit the scope of the war to revenge against the House of Lauberdier, and do not want to change the faith of the people of the kingdom in the Seven Gods. ”

What she meant was not to touch the interests of the gods.

The root of the gods lies in the number and belief of believers, and without touching these two points, the gods basically will not interfere in mortal battles, which is the default unspoken rule in Allenus.

After all, gods interfering in the mortal world also require the consumption of divine power.

Mortals fear the power of the gods, and the gods don't dare to act at will, in case of accidents, or fall into the trap of hostile gods, it will be more than worth the loss.

There are many gods in the history of Ehrenus, all of which were triggered by the fuse of the mortal world.

Therefore, the gods also try not to make a move.

The affairs of the mortal world are left to the mortals to solve by themselves.

Wren disagreed, "Once the war machine is running, it is not something you can control. If you don't touch the interests of the gods, others will definitely believe it, and the empire's legions have landed in the Kingdom of Congatro, and the floating city has also descended into the sky, which will definitely cause the hostility of the seven gods. ”

"Your Excellency, you have misunderstood. ”

Emilys explained, "I don't want the Imperial Legion to send troops, let alone the Floating City, the Kingdom of Congatro can't withstand such a terrible attack. The main force of the war is my Centaur army, but I lack high-level spellcasting power, so I would like to invite the Wezeland Wizards, preferably one or two Speakers, to join the battle as a private person. ”

"Of course, it would be great if the Lord was willing to send the Knights of the Spear Wing and the Extreme Warband. She added.

Wren nodded, it was a good idea.

The wizards of Wezeland entered the war in a private name, plus their own extraordinary legions, and even the private armies of several imperial lords, it was no problem.

This undoubtedly narrowed the scope of the war, and indeed did not arouse the vigilance of the gods.

But the difficulty of victory has become greater.

"You've been thinking about it for a long time, haven't you?" Wren asked.

"Yes, sir. Emily confessed, "I always wanted to use a certain force in the empire, but I didn't have a way, and I didn't dare to reveal my intentions at will, until I met the lord's ......."

The Soul Eye saw that she was telling the truth.

Wren asked, "What is the origin of your centaur army, and how many are there?"

"They are centaurs of the Drakken tribe, and I have been in contact with them for many years, and I have gained the trust of the tribe, and can send up to 5,000 men. Emily didn't hold back, "And my mercenary group, there are also more than five hundred transcendent mercenaries, many of them from Congatro's old tribes that remain loyal to the family, distributed in the empire and the Old World, as long as I give the order, they can be gathered within two months." ”

Wren was amazed that Emilys' army had exceeded his expectations.

Five thousand centaur warriors plus more than five hundred mercenaries are equivalent to half of the empire's regular legions, and their strength is considerable.

It is not easy for a princess in exile to organize such a large and extraordinary army.

Of course, this is definitely not her own efforts, the Zogenburg family has ruled Congartro for more than 3,000 years, and there must be remnants of forces secretly helping, not necessarily out of loyalty to the Drogenburg family, or nostalgia for the remnants of the previous dynasty, among which there must be ambitious people.

With these people joining forces inside and out, and the Wezeland Wizards participating in the war, maybe they can really succeed in restoration.

As far as Wren knew, Congatro's transcendent system was unique, unlike the Empire, derived from the bloodline cultivation methods of orcs, similar to that of warlocks, but not good at casting spells.

As a result, it is almost impossible for Congatro to reach level twenty and enter the Holy Order, except for the Dragonborn Apostles of the Drogenburg family.

There is currently no one in Congartro who does not have a Holy Order Transcendent.

The top combat power is the legendary high-level, and there are only a few of them, and the speaker of Wezeland is a wizard, and only one or two can resist or even defeat the other party.

Wren thought about it for a long time, and was finally moved.

He looked at Emilys and asked softly, "So, what is the price?"
