Volume 1: Twilight of the Moon Chapter 29: Regaining Freedom
Riding his horse and whipping, Srian galloped across the plains. Although he avoided the sentinels, he couldn't disappear for long, and once the Moon Emperor found out that he was missing, it would be a real big deal.
Before Srian had time to think too much, he had already vaguely seen Mosburg.
Everything went smoothly, and Srian was soon taken to the conference room in Mossburg.
Looking at the familiar room and familiar seats, Srian had to sigh that the world was making people, in just a few dozen days, Mosburg, known as the strongest defense of the kingdom, quickly changed hands.
"Why didn't Yi Tian come in person?" The third prince was a little confused, Yi Tian shouldn't have sent someone for such a big event.
"Ahem............ Can I ask the third prince a question before I answer? ”
"You say"
"Do the three princes really want peace talks, and will the orc army withdraw as promised after the peace talks?"
"Hahaha, what's the matter? Yi Tian he changed his mind!!"
"No, Yi Tian, he is in trouble!! only the third prince can save him at present. Srian said truthfully.
"Commander-in-Chief Yi Tian has been imprisoned by your king!!!" the old prophet suddenly interjected.
"Ah..............." Srian didn't expect it, how could he know?????
"It seems so," said the old prophet calmly.
"Why was Yi Tian arrested?" Obviously, the third prince was still confused.
"Missing in battle, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. ”
"That is, what he did with us the other day was discovered. The old prophet explained in a low voice.
After thinking for a moment, the third prince raised his head sharply.
"Then what do you say is going to set Yi Tian free? ”
"I'm afraid that only the third prince can take the initiative to propose peace talks. Srian said cautiously, asking the orcs to bow their heads first, Srian was full of thoughts, knowing that the success rate was not high, but this was the only way to do it for now.
"No, it's absolutely impossible, this matter is not negotiable!!" Before the third prince could react, the old prophet vetoed it.
"No, I think this matter can be discussed," the third prince ignored the old prophet's dissuasion, "but I want to get a promise before agreeing." ”
"What?" you say!! "I thought that there was no turning point in this matter, but the words of the third prince made the whole thing turn around.
"It's very simple, as long as Yi Tian agrees to me a condition after freedom," the third prince stared at Si Rui'an, "I heard clearly, it is any condition, and he can't refuse." ”
Srian hesitated, he knew Yi Tian's personality, and he would never do anything he was not sure of, let alone any conditions that he could not refuse.
But life matters, there will naturally be a solution to the matter in the future, besides, the third prince should not make any excessive requests, if Yi Tian does not agree, he can't do anything to Yi Tian.
"Okay, I promise you. ”
"Refreshing enough!!Since you agreed, you should hurry back and prepare, at least to say to your emperor, I don't want to greet me with a radium spear. ”
....................................
In the darkness of the night, Srian quietly returned to his tent, thinking about how to tell Yi Tian about that condition.
The third prince really kept his word, and the next day he sent a peace envoy.
And Sriyan, who received the news, rushed to the conference hall as soon as possible.
It was said that it was the first time, but when he arrived, the peace talks had already begun for a while.
"The meaning of the Three Princes ....................."
Just by listening to the voice, Srian could already determine the identity of the orc messenger, someone he couldn't know better.
The door to the council hall was open, and Srian spotted the old Minotaur Prophet Kukunstan as he spoke generously.
"Dare to ask the Emissary, why are the orcs so confident that we will agree to peace talks? King Zhenheng fought back passionately.
"Haha, it's true that my people killed a lot of humans, but in return, you humans didn't kill any less of my people. So wouldn't it be nice to write it off, Emperor Yueshi, what do you say!!"
"This .................." Yueshi hesitated, originally thinking that he would die, but at this moment, he turned around.
"And as far as I know, Basdino is your last barrier, and after that is your royal capital Granton!! in the current situation, if my more than 100,000 beast army launches another round of fierce attack, let me ask: Can your army resist? The more Kukunstan spoke, the more excited he became.
Indeed, what this minotaur said is quite reasonable, there are countless countries in the mainland that have surrendered to the orcs for thousands of years, and there are many and not many of themselves, and according to historical data, the integrity of the orcs is far better than that of humans, especially they are not as greedy as some other human empires, and they do not have the slightest requirement for the land of humans, although there is also an element of fear of the Holy See, but in general, compared to the destruction of the country, surrendering the orcs is a deal that is not too loss-making.
After thinking about it, the Moon Emperor still felt that surrender was the best way out at present, and just as he opened his mouth to agree, a sudden scene completely dispelled his plan.
"NMD fart!! are we afraid of you savage orcs?!?! you minotaur hurry up and go back and wait for death!!!! "A young general who is probably over-blooded scolded.
Suddenly, the atmosphere of the entire conference hall changed abruptly.
Kukunstan, who had a slightly contemptuous smile at the beginning, suddenly tightened his brows, "Hmph, savage orcs!! you will pay for everything you said today, since you are so disdainful of peace talks, then you can only meet on the battlefield!!"
Seeing the situation suddenly take a turn for the worse, Yue Shi panicked, obviously everything was already under control, why is it like this now.
Srian couldn't hold back anymore when he saw it, he was angry and killed people!! when did this succeed in what kind of hero!!
"Prophet, please stay!!" Srian shouted as he leapt to his feet.
"Huh?" Kukunstan sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
"Lord Prophet!!!, please forgive the Prophet for what the yellow-mouthed boy said just now, we have no intention of despising the orcs. "Srian can't care about face at the moment.
"Lord Sriyan, why do you want to .................. to this" The hot-blooded young man began to boil again.
"Shut up, someone, drag him down!!!," the king of the left shouted, who knew what the indignant young man would say.
"Your Excellency the Prophet, I think that scene was just a misunderstanding, and I hope you don't take it personally. "Sriyan's sincere heart at this moment is really evident.
Kukunstan stopped leaving, but his face was still angry.
The Emperor of the Moon World knew that at this moment, only by himself would things turn around, alas! Forget it, isn't it just an old face, if it's gone, it's gone, and it's not difficult to ask for someone.
"Ahem............ Your Excellency, I sincerely apologize to you for what has just happened. "Yueshi is completely out of the way this time.
And at the same time, both the prince and the general present bowed their heads one by one, and even the supreme monarch apologized in humiliation, and you still held your head high as a courtier, isn't this obviously a contempt for imperial power?
Seeing this scene, no matter who is vain, even the orcs are no exception.
Kukunstan's face finally turned clear at this moment, "The Moon Emperor doesn't have to be like this, the peace talks will not end because of that little episode just now. ”
Huhuhu..................... When he heard the prophet's answer, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was not lost in vain.
"But ..................," said the old prophet slowly.
This old fox knew that he would take the opportunity to ask for a price, and Srian scolded secretly in his heart.
"But I wonder if your country will be able to show some sincerity until then?"
"You say!"
"It's not much, just two points. First, we orcs must negotiate with the Supreme Commander of the Alliance," Kukunstan said, staring at Srian.
Thankfully, they're still keeping their word.
"Second, the whole negotiation process and the outcome must be 100% honest, and I don't want to see the slightest bit of deception. ”
"Your Excellency Prophet, now that the Emperor is here, I don't think there is any need to let the Commander-in-Chief come forward, after all, the Moon Emperor is the supreme commander of the current coalition army. The king of Zhengnan suddenly burst out.
Si Ruian saw that Yi Tian was not far from being released from prison, but King Zhengnan's brainless words made this matter hang again. The Moon Emperor is here, if the old prophet insists on making peace with Yi Tian and ignores the Emperor, then only the well-intentioned people present can think carefully and come to the fact that Yi Tian has an extraordinary relationship with the orcs.
"This is not true, as the supreme commander of the orc army, His Royal Highness the Third Prince will personally negotiate peace with the commander-in-chief of your coalition army, His Royal Highness the Third Prince is very interested in this 15-year-old commander-in-chief, this is one of the conditions that the Third Prince repeatedly emphasized before leaving, I think the Emperor should be an adult!! right" Kukunstan said unhurriedly, while releasing the momentum of the superior without revealing a trace.
"Ha, the prophet laughed, since the third prince has this intention, then I will naturally let Yi Tian attend the negotiation for me, after all, I don't know much about the things on the battlefield, so it's better to leave it to the people on the battlefield to complete" Don't look at what Yue Shi said so freely, but his heart is up and down, once Yi Tian is released this time, will the result be to let the tiger return to the mountain.
"The Emperor is really refreshed," Kukunstan smiled for !!the first time.
On the other side, when Srian heard Yueshi's affirmative answer, a boulder finally landed safely.
※※※※※※※※※※※※
Cold, fearful
In this dark water prison, Yi Tian can only barely survive by relying on the power of light.
Today is the third day of Yi Tian's imprisonment.
For three days, there was no food, no sunshine, no life, but there was only emptiness, coldness, and dead silence. The power of light is almost exhausted if it is not well replenished.
Death is like a big net, slowly wrapping Yi Tian tightly until the moment he dies.
....................................
Sunlight
It's so warm
air
It's so fresh
Huhuhu............
"Is this heaven?" Yi Tian opened his eyes, "what a familiar feeling." ”
A simple wooden table, a comfy bed, and most importantly, I look like I'm staying in a tent.
Is the tent a barracks???
"Yitian, you're finally awake!!"
The door of the tent was slammed open, and a tall middle-aged man entered.
"Are you .................." Yi Tian's brain was blank at the moment, who is he???????
"Ah........." The middle-aged man was obviously stunned, but then burst out laughing again, "Yitian, don't play, there are important things for you to deal with!"
"Yitian??......???? I don't remember..............."
"No, don't scare me, Yi Tian! I finally got you out of that hellish place, you can't make any more mistakes!!"
"Uh...... Head......... It hurts..............." Yi Tian tried to remember everything, but every time he touched that memory, he found that there was only cold and empty silence there, and when he tried to forcibly explore this cold and empty silence, his head would be torn apart.
This is miserable, how can he lose his memory? Tomorrow there will be negotiations!
Do you want to ask the third prince for help again? It seems that this is the only way left now.
