"It's hard for you to remember me. Farrell looked at each other with a complicated look in his eyes, with hatred, but also seemed to have memories of the past.

"Farrell, I didn't expect to see you here again today. That's a good thing. To be honest, I've been worried about your life since I sent you out. Ansaldo was worthy of being a governor, and he was still angry in the face of Xiao Chen, but when he saw Farrell standing beside Xiao Chen, his face immediately calmed down, "I don't know if Lisa and your child are okay? At that time, your son was less than a year old, and he was only the size of my arm." ”

"Lisa is dead. But I now have two children. They all became good craftsmen. Farrell was a little uncomfortable in the face of Ansaldo's enthusiasm, "I have to ask you something, this question has been in my mind for a long time, tell me, did you sell me to Viscount Moraton back then?!"

"My old friend, why do you think that? I'm just arranging a place for you to go. How do you suspect that I sold you?" Ansaldo looked shocked, "Have you become a slave with Viscount Moraton?"

"Well, not really. But like a slave, Moraton never let me out, and kept me in the castle to build things for him. What's the difference between this and a slave? If I hadn't escaped, I'm afraid I would have been locked up by him for the rest of my life. Farrell's tone of voice was less certain than before.

"If I do sell you, he will brand you as a slave, so that you have nowhere to run away. I didn't know that the real Moraton was such a shameless person, and I never imagined that he would treat you like this later. In his previous dealings with me, he looked like a decent aristocrat. ”

"What you said is true?"

"yes. How could I sell you, how could I have a friend sell you as a slave, and how much money could I get? Even if I wanted to sell you, I wouldn't sell it with my family. Ansaldo explained, "It's someone I don't know, and I'm sorry about it, my old friend." Elves are arrogant, but they are more reliable than humans in this regard, but you don't like them. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that I hadn't been able to settle down, Lisa wouldn't have died of illness on the way. ”

"Oh, that's a shame, but I think it's Lisa's death that makes you feel so sad. You feel guilty and feel that others are responsible, right?" Ansaldo asked.

"This ......," Farrell was a little unsure.

"Listen, Farrell. Things from the past, we can talk slowly. Ansaldo cautiously glanced at Xiao Chen, who was a few steps behind Farrell, and asked Farrell, "Are you playing for the Tower of China now?"

"I am a member of the China Tower, a place where I have finally settled down after many years of unrest. Farrell was shaken off by Ansaldo's words, and now he seemed kinder.

"I seem to have a misunderstanding with the Lord of the Tower of China, and I think we can have a good talk. Ansaldo said.

Xiao Chen watched this scene not far behind Farrell, although it was said that most of the dwarves were upright and rude, but they must not include those nobles and merchants. This Ansaldo doesn't look like a dead brain and could be a good entry point.

"I'm just accompanying Chairman Xiao Chen here, if you have something to say, just say it to yourself. Farrell said.

Ansaldo stepped out of the guards that surrounded him, stopped the guards from trying to follow, and walked to Farrell alone. He patted Farrell on the shoulder, walked past him, and walked in front of Xiao Chen.

Ansaldo asked with a serious expression: "Your Excellency Xiao Chen, I heard that the Tower of China fought a fierce battle with the Imperial people two years ago, and some of the mountains of the Empire bordering us have nominally been in your hands. I know that you are very powerful, and even the Purple Eagle Empire, which claims to be the most powerful in the Continental Army, has been defeated by you. However, you have not had any contact with our dwarven kingdom so far, and you attacked our fleet and blew up our warehouses at the first encounter, what do you want to do?"

Ansaldo's performance impressed Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen could see the violent fluctuations in his mental power, but at least on the surface, the dwarven governor stabilized his emotions, and his words were also very organized. However, Xiao Chen had already prepared, and he took out an image crystal, "Governor Ansaldo." I have here the evidence that you did it first. ”

The image crystal casts a bird's-eye view on the ground. It was the deck of a dwarven warship, and many dwarves were busy preparing their weapons, firing crossbow bolts and exploding barrels. Ansaldo didn't know how the other party had captured this scene, but he was familiar with his battleship and knew that it must have happened on the surface of the sea.

"They didn't attack, they got hit by you first. Ansaldo said.

"It's like a swordsman provoking in front of a master swordsman, but before the swordsman can draw his sword, he is killed by the master who comes first. This only means that the master is highly skilled, and it does not mean that the swordsman is not a stupid challenger. Xiao Chen put away the image crystal and threw it to Ansaldo, "As for the bombardment of that warehouse, I know very well in my heart that there is no one there. I don't mean to threaten you, that's unnecessary, but as a responsible adversary, I have to make it clear to you that the result of a blind confrontation is that the entire port will become that warehouse. ”

Ansaldo's face turned a little pale when he heard this. He clutched the image crystal in his hand tightly. The meaning of the other party is very clear, the so-called first move, then do it, is just a moral statement. In the face of absolute strength, using these arguments to just look at the mood of the other party, and giving him the so-called "evidence" will not change anything.

The ruins of the warehouses, which were still smoking, clearly told him what would happen if he didn't cooperate. Ansaldo secretly looked at Xiao Chen and quietly clenched his fists.

Farrell said, "Lord Xiao Chen is a great magician at the peak of his realm, and he is also a benevolent but decisive leader. Anyone who works well with him will have very good results. Actually, from the very beginning, he just wanted to talk to you. ”

Hearing the word archmagician, Ansaldo's hand let go again. Even if he got close to this level, he was only a high-level warrior, and he probably wouldn't have any chance of subduing this human.

Ansaldo said, "Then please come with me." We can go to my governor's palace and talk about what you've always wanted to talk about. ”
