Chapter 683 - Unequal Transactions
The wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
Led by Martina and McGonagall, Kylot finally met Mirai Aoki's ranged attack team, but both in terms of numbers and quality, it was somewhat unexpected......
At three o'clock in the morning, in the box of a hotel owned by Qingshu, a group of thinly dressed and pale people were gobbling up food on a large table.
"Including McGonagall and Martina, there are thirty-two people in all, eight old people, ten children, and the rest are a few injured and sick, and after being cured, they should be able to form a fighting force with other young adults. ”
Fimia sat with Kailot, worked all night for these people, and finally brought them to the green tree in batches.
"It seems that the witch clan has been suppressed more severely than the half-giants, and the physical characteristics themselves are more likely to be exposed, which is too deadly, these people are not enough to help the current green tree, but ......"
Of course, Femia's efforts were not in vain because of these old and sick people, on the contrary, her eyes were now bright, as bright as those of Kylot.
"But these people are tinder, and the ethnic residence of the witch clan itself means that they must have a special way of exchanging information internally, as long as these people are taken care of, they will naturally contact other displaced clansmen, and it is only a matter of time before they form a certain combat effectiveness. ”
Picking up the second half of Fiumia's unfinished sentence, although the people of the witch clan can't help much for the time being, the current Qingshu really doesn't lack their help.
"Is this all the people, is there anything missing?"
Kylott patted Martina beside her, who was battling a roast duck with a mouth full of oil, and a teenage girl still maintained the innocence that she should have at this age.
"Elder Grandma, are you all together?"
Martina turned her head to see the old man walking this way, and asked aloud.
"It's all here, all the people we can contact for the time being are here, it's really ...... Thank you very much for your help, and it is a great blessing for us to have you in favor of you. ”
After decades of exile and suffering, watching the people around her one by one be separated or falling, until today she finally found a place to live, the old man, who was crushed by the responsibility, walked to Kelot's side, her hand holding the wooden staff slid down, her knees bent, and she wanted to kneel down to thank the two in front of her for their help.
"Hey, what are you doing! You are the help that my Qingshu can't ask for, you are willing to join our Qingshu, I and Fimia thank you before it's too late!"
The sound of eating at the table stopped, everyone turned their heads to look at this side, everyone had a trace of worry and sadness on their faces, they were afraid that this meal was just a sweet dream, they woke up, and they had to return to their original lives, they were waiting for a fateful choice, Kylott noticed this, so he raised his voice and continued: " How similar is the fate of our half-giants and the witch clan, don't look at our current scenery, a few years ago, our Qingshu also faced a situation of complete defeat, relying on the struggle of many clansmen to get to this point.
We are all outcasts of society, but that doesn't mean self-defeating, many human beings don't like us, wanted, hunted down, persecuted! Why? Because we are stronger than them! Our blood is nobler than theirs! So they are afraid of our strength! I realized many years ago that if they don't accept us, then we make them have to accept us! Don't rely on others, rely on ourselves, I assure you that in the future, with our Qingshu half-giants, no one will be able to bully you, no matter what others think, we Qingshu will be the most staunch allies and supporters of the witch clan!"
After a few words, what was gained was not applause, nor cheers, but choking and crying.
It's done!Kellot turned sideways to exchange glances with Femia, his words a little greasy, but they were his true words.
In terms of the current state of the witch clan, it should be said that there is no other way out if you don't follow Qingshu, the pursuit of the witch clan by the Rimai Sect is obvious to all in the entire Lorraine Empire, and you can know how strong the strength is by looking at the state of these people, there are many powerful people among them, it stands to reason that there is no problem in making money and living a good life, but in fact, they can't find a job at all, or they don't dare to look for a job, because as long as one is found, it is very likely that a large group of people behind them will be involved.
Therefore, when Kellot showed that Qingshu was willing to take them in, these people's emotions would be so excited, and the overseas islands could be said to be the best place for them to go now, since the half-giants who were also intolerable by society could take root there and develop to the scale they are today, they could naturally too.
Kellot's guarantee is a guarantee for the future for them, at least the problem of food and clothing can be solved, isn't it?
"Elder Doroles, please come with us, there are some things that we still need to discuss. ”
To appease the hearts of good people, the specific cooperation must be discussed and discussed in advance, which is beneficial to both parties, the witch clan wants to go to the island, and they must find their own position before they can gain a foothold, otherwise they will not do anything on the island, they will eat and drink all day long, not that Qingshu can't afford to raise, but it will be difficult for them to integrate into the big family of Qingshu.
"I think so, the half-giants are born with a lack of long-range output because of the problem of race, and several elemental half-giants do not practice spells, and occasionally there are a few talented ones, compared to our huge forces, it is also a drop in the bucket, so I hope you can help us, Qingshu needs a group of mages or gunsmiths who can provide us with long-range strikes!"
Kellott came straight to the point with his idea, which in itself had nothing to hide.
"Don't say it, this is what we should do, the clansmen have been on the run for so long, but the training of skills has not been left behind, what is lacking is just a place to play, and it's not just the help of people, as long as you don't dislike it, we can share all the knowledge in the clan with Qingshu!"
What Kailot's side wants to talk about is simply too small to be small on Doroles's side, they promised to join Qingshu and accept the protection of this organization, they have no money and no treasures, and they can only provide these people, and even she feels that she can't help the other party at all, and she knows that compared to the huge scale of the other party, the combat help provided by her side can be said to be minimal.
After years of wandering, Dolores deeply understood a problem, friendship alone is not enough, because of Bayoneta's relationship, Qingshu accepts her own people, and it seems that she will definitely not treat her people badly, but as the elder of the witch clan, she can't just ask for food and clothing like the clansmen, she has the responsibility to restore the past glory of the witch clan, so what to exchange for the support of the other party? It's definitely not enough to rely on her own people, so she is ready to share the knowledge and skills of the witch clan in exchange for Qingshu's support in all aspects.
The race is about to be wiped out, what do you do with those knowledge and skills! Can you use it for food or can you use it for clothing?
"This ...... It's wonderful!"
What Kailott wanted to do before was to take this group of people to the island first, and use all kinds of generous treatment to make them die for Qingshu, and then find a way to let them take the initiative to share some skills, after all, it was Yunita's clan, he was unwilling to use strong means, who would have thought that people would consciously help as soon as they came up, not to mention, but also wanted to directly take out the knowledge and skills in the clan to share.
He asked for sesame seeds, but the other party stuffed the watermelon directly into his mouth!
In the final analysis, this very different reaction stems from the perception of their own status by both sides, and it can be said that Kelot still thinks highly of the witches in some ways, and he talks to Dolores on the same level as himself, and the way they talk is also negotiated, just like their cooperation with the Abrahamic family.
However, their own family knows their own affairs, in the eyes of this elder, now they really have no qualifications to stand on the same level as the other party, in order to survive, it is appropriate to abandon something, a few decades ago, the witch clan at that time did not want to give up anything in the external meeting, and as a result, in the end, nothing could be held in their hands!
No matter what the deal is, as long as one of the parties is willing to lower its posture, then the transaction between the two parties will be a lot easier, not to mention that Dolores's posture is almost low to the dust, anyway, it is a sentence, no matter what Kailot says, as long as Aoki expresses his willingness to provide a place for the witch clan to live and agrees to let her recall the exiled clansmen, she is willing to pay any price, whether it is unconditional support for Aoki or any knowledge and skills in the clan.
Everyone said so, and Kailot had nothing to do but repay with practical actions, except for a few contacts with other witches in the Sambia region, the others boarded the train to Seligent overnight, and the ship of the green tree would take them directly to the green tree islands, and it would only take a month or two for them to understand how wise it was to follow the green tree.
Dolores was old, and after some things had been discussed, she returned to her people, arranging what to do for those who stayed and those who left, while Kylot and Femia stayed in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of their hotel rooms.
"It's been raining for a long time, it stopped last night, and it started again in the early morning. ”
Moving the sofa and making it face out the window, Kelot's mouth spat out a pale cyan smoke, and the aroma of herbs made his tired spirit a lot clearer after a busy night's work, and his eyes looked at the scattered lights outside the window, and only at this kind of time around five o'clock in the morning, there was such a silent scene.
"Ahem~ Why can't I get used to this? ”
Femia also took a sip of a herb cigar and followed the example of Kylot, but quickly gave up and picked up the lollipop next to her and put it in her mouth.
"How long do you think it will take for the witch clan to become a climate?"
"It depends on how many people they have outside, if they are like half-giants, half a year, how can they form a team, the number of people is not large, there are dozens of them, it can be regarded as a small mage group or a firearm team, which can be useful in many places, the enchantment arrangement on the island can be handed over to them, and some of our talented people can also learn from them. ”
Kylot and Fermia had no intention of going back to sleep, there were still a few hours of dawn, there was no need to go back to squint for a few hours, and not sleeping all night would not affect anything, but the tide fell asleep early in Kelot's arms.
"This is ...... The aura on the body of the same clan is a little strange......"
Femia noticed Bashas behind Kailot, a person more than two meters tall was standing there, it was difficult not to pay attention, her perception was extremely strong, Kailott could feel it, she could naturally do it.
Bashas followed Kailot before, and now his identity is also his subordinate, so he has been following him.
"The murderer of Oshelin in recent times, it's him. ”
Kylot's tone remained the same, the same flatness as when he talked about the weather before.
"Huh?"
"Haha, just kidding...... But it's pretty much the same, the government lab escaped, and his friends who were the test subjects were the prisoners, so we launched our intelligence network to find a guy named Ed Kuwait, the director of the government lab, and started from this aspect, and let him describe the specific information later, Bashas, you just follow her, tell her everything you know. ”
Let Bashas follow Scarlett down, and there were only two people left in the room.
"Why do you want to help him? For the sake of a person who was used by the government for experiments, you are going to kill the director of a government laboratory? Not very well, this kind of person is undoubtedly the treasure of the government, just like Dryden's position in our organization, he is the pillar of a certain aspect, Cthulhu's situation some time ago, you also see it, this juncture to provoke this kind of task, the government's retaliation will not only target him, what is the hidden secret?"
Scarlett and Bashas and a few others were present just now, and Fimia remained silent, and now only Kailote remains, so there is nothing to hide.
Femia trusts Kylott absolutely, so her words are more about verification than questioning.
"Well, it's not worth it just because he's a bashas, but well, it's not the same with some additional factors. Kuwait's research is too aimed at us half-giants, you can also see his state just now, they have been able to do this, not only the half-giant bloodline, but also the fusion of orc blood, if one day he can make humans have the ability of giants or orcs, our advantage will be greatly reduced, this is a threat, before guiding Cthulhu to destroy their base, I also have this mind, if you have the chance, you must cause them some trouble, in addition, he is a very good container, he can withstand the mutual pouring of multiple bloodlines, he is a person with talent in this area, and one of my things, needs such a personIf the operation goes well, Qingshu will get a new high-end combat power. ”
The first time he saw Bashas, something in the spatial ring made him understand that this guy was of no small use to him!
