Chapter 10 The Pursuit of Efficient Elves

The deer carts of the envoys slowly drove into the no-go area as the crowd watched, and it was not until the guards in charge of law and order began to chase people away that the bored onlookers gradually and reluctantly dispersed. In the greeting of several high-level officials of the capital of knowledge, the door of the deer carriage opened, and more than a dozen representatives of the elven royal court walked out of the carriage with elegant steps, nodding to the officials and guards who were in charge of receiving them with a decent smile, but the deer cart representing the elven queen at the front of the convoy did not move at all, as if the people inside had fallen asleep. It wasn't until thirty seconds later that the door slowly opened from the inside, and Her Majesty the slender and tall stepped out of the car, but no one noticed below, and there was suddenly no one missing from the delegates who had been on the neutral side of the stone steps, as if they had disappeared into thin air.

Her Majesty the Queen is dressed in an emerald green dress, wearing a crown of life on her head that marks the identity of the Elf King, sandals woven of emerald green leaves on her feet, and most of her small feet are exposed, and her crystal white skin seems to have the luster of life, making it difficult to take your eyes off. In front of the car was the person in charge of greeting one of the top leaders of the city guard, Irlan, who was dressed in uniform, stretched out his arm, and Vral gently took his arm and stepped out of the car, his gentle eyes looked around, revealing a shallow smile. At the same time as she got out of the car, the crowd responsible for greeting at the top of the stone steps began to move, most of them stood still and did not move, only Odin and Antuin, who represented the local forces of the Holy Capital, were accompanied by other Holy Capital officials, and the representatives of other neutral places were also guests of the Holy Capital, so naturally they only needed to wait on the stairs.

Today's Odin looks extraordinarily spiritual, the Ranger profession itself comes from the elves, as a demigod ranger, Odin spent most of his adventure time in the Lost Forest, the Elven Forest is like his second home, very familiar with the elven side, and can even be said to be very cordial, so for the first time in his tenure, the two sides carried out the highest level of diplomatic activities. Naturally, he paid special attention to it, not to mention that he found that among the delegates who came this time, there were many familiar faces that he had come into contact with, and they were all friends who had been in contact with him. It made him feel better. And although Antuin is an elf himself, he has not returned to the elven forest for a long time since he joined the Mage Guild and took over as the president, and suddenly saw a large number of his fellow clansmen wearing hometown costumes standing in front of him, and his heart was inevitably excited.

But. Neither of them showed inner excitement on their faces, but their expressions were very strange, Odin was obviously holding back a smile, while Antuin was helpless, as for the reason, it was obviously because of the strange delay of thirty seconds.

"Your Majesty, welcome to you. "Antuin, who is nearly a thousand years old, is twice as old as Vrard, and he has been studying magic in the Elven Court before, so it can almost be said that he has grown up watching Vral grow up. Watching this little girl, who was only calf tall and running around naughtily, grew into a powerful demigod and a qualified queen, and even reached the age of distress for love, Antuin said with the unique feelings of her father, a mixture of relief and embarrassment: "I haven't seen you for more than 170 years, and your demeanor is no longer inferior to your grandmother back then, this is really a blessing for elves." ”

"Uncle Antoin, you've won the prize. Vral blinked mischievously in front of Antuin like a child, and said with a smile, "Didn't we just meet? ”

"Ahem. Odin coughed helplessly, pretending that he had just seen Vral. After greeting with human courtesy, he invited: "Your Majesty and all the delegates have worked hard, and I, Odin, the current lord of the City of Knowledge, welcome you on behalf of all the residents of the City of Knowledge. We have prepared a place for you to rest. You can take a short break, and then we'll have lunch with representatives from a few other cities. ”

"No need, Lord Odin. Vral smiled and said, "The elves are a race that pursues efficiency, and they don't need to waste time on unnecessary rest, everyone is actually resting all the time on the road." Now I am in good spirits. Since it's still early, and representatives from other cities are here, it's better to start now. ”

"Well, go for efficiency. Odin nodded with a dry cough, stretched out his hand and said, "Then, Your Majesty, please here, this is the oldest auditorium in the City of Knowledge, and it already existed when the city was first established. Of course, for the elves, more than 400 years is just a moment, but for human cities, this is a testimony of history. ”

"Of course, I understand. Vral said seriously: "The existence of a neutral place itself represents the historical process of mankind's pursuit of peace and freedom, and the existence of the capital of knowledge is a witness to the free pursuit of knowledge and art, although the time is still very short, but in the distant future, it will definitely become the most important piece of the puzzle in history." ”

Greeting each other, the three of them were in front, and the rest of the elf representatives gathered behind the three of them, and climbed the stone steps of the auditorium together. When the two sides up and down the stone steps merged, Odin said politely: "Your Majesty, let me introduce you to the representatives of other cities. This is the lord of Kara City in Free City, and the president of the Mercenary Guild, and the lady beside him is the leader of the Roland Grass Mercenary Regiment, the head of the Sea People Sarah from the Sea Country, and another demigod of Free City. Standing on this side is one of the city lords of the City of Innocence, and one of the leaders of the Hand of Y Shadow, a demigod thief codenamed Shadow, hehe, when we were young, the two of us had dealt with each other many times. ”

"I've been dealing with a lot of people now. "As the head of the external affairs of the City of Innocence, the leader known as Shadow does not look like a thief at all, short and fat, with an honest face, more like a merchant than a thief. However, just like the elegance of his direct subordinates, although most of them maintained this honest image when they came forward, everyone can be sure that this is not his real appearance at all, as for what his real appearance is, whether he is male or female, how old he is, but no one knows at all. The only thing that everyone knows is that he is like a shadow, no matter where you are, he may be attached to your back, quietly observing you. Now, the Humpty Dumpty thief smiled and said, "As for the future, if you don't trouble me a little less, I'll be very satisfied." ”

"That's exactly what I'm trying to say. Odin sighed helplessly and continued: "The following one is Prince Nicholas representing the Farar Empire, and His Royal Highness just happened to visit the City of Innocence, so he came with Shadow. (To be continued.) )
