Roland's words conveyed two meanings to all the dark dwellers present.

First, about the time when this war about the plague broke out. In the eyes of most people, the impact of the plague has so far been severe, but it has not yet reached the point of serious illness. As long as the kingdom dispatches all its military forces to blockade the epidemic area, and then stangles a large number of living rat men, controlling the epidemic is still achievable. So in the eyes of the dark dwellers, they still have plenty of time to weigh the pros and cons of joining the war.

Second, the purpose of the pestilence. Things have come to this point that no one has long believed that this is just a purely natural plague. No matter how ignorant these people were about the plague, they could be sure that there was indeed a gray-robed wizard who had treated the plague in the birthplace of the plague, the county of Salon. Now that the possibility of natural disasters has been ruled out, the next question to consider is, what do the people who spread the plague want?

This is exactly the problem that even Cheese and the others have not been able to reach a conclusion until now, but Roland's words vaguely point out the other side of the problem with a storm. No matter what the person who spreads the plague wants to gain from the plague, neither he nor they have ever cared how much will be destroyed by the plague, and for these people, the lives of these dark dwellers of the royal capital will not be more valuable than the ordinary people who die under the plague.

"This is a bit alarmist, isn't it? Although the current situation is indeed not good, I think at least the royal capital is still safe. "The person who spoke was not a representative of any force, but Jason, who was standing next to Roland. The dark figure of the human figure said in a cautious tone. Although it sounds like Jason was very careful when he said this, daring to take the lead in questioning Roland at this time shows that this guide is actually much more daring than he shows.

The guide's question was quickly accepted by the others, and echoing voices began to be heard from the audience. In the eyes of these delegates, there was nothing wrong with the old man's words being called a threat. And such a threat clearly made them not very happy.

"Doesn't you seem to know?" Roland didn't show any evasion when he heard the doubts around him, the old man just held the brim of his hat, and then took out a small crystal bottle from his cuff.

"All of you, though I don't want to tell you the news at this time. However, in order to dispel any misunderstanding you may have about me, I still have to explain. Unfortunately, the city we are in now is no longer safe. ”

As he spoke, the old man raised the crystal bottle in his hand high, and he could see that the liquid in the bottle showed a faint green color under the lamplight.

"The potion in my hand is the seed of the plague. A mortal like me only needs to take a sip to plant a plague in his body, and it only takes a simple external catalyst for the plague to break out immediately. The plague induced by this agent can also be contagious. With just one vial of potion, a village can be completely destroyed in a matter of days. ”

Roland's words and the crystal bottle in his hand calmed the noisy audience. Countless pairs of eyes in the darkness were looking at the crystal bottle, and in these eyes, there was fear, anger, silence, and in some there was a more complex look.

"This ...... Is it the work of Lady Amia or the Grey-robed Lady?" asked Jason, after a moment's hesitation. In his impression, the people who can make such a terrible potion are probably the only two in this royal capital.

"It's a pity, though I also hope that this elixir that the demons won't use is the work of these two people we know. But I can vouch for it with my real name and soul that it's not the work of a witch or wizard. It comes from the hands of mortals. ”

The old man paused, waited for the listeners to recover from their surprise, and continued.

"Mr. One-Eye's Chamber of Commerce has inadvertently come into contact with this potion, and they are falsely claimed to be a good medicine for the treatment and prevention of the plague! And we suspect that it is this potion that directly caused the spread of the plague in the Hammer Collar and the Black Mountain Collar! Next, we ask Mr. One-Eyed to tell you more about this potion. ”

Roland handed the potion to One-Eye, motioning for her to take over and continue explaining the situation to the dark dwellers. It is believed that the delegates who were shocked by this huge information should not have time to discuss whether One-Eye is qualified to be their leader. The next thing is to see if One-Eye can grasp this opportunity.

Thankfully, One-Eye is still a fairly capable leader, though she made some mistakes at first due to her ignorance of the dark dwellers. But as the conversation shifted to what she knew, the underground leader's momentum grew stronger. At that moment, she explained the situation of the spread of this plague medicine to these delegates.

The delegates who realized for the first time that they were really sitting in the heart of the plague were now well-behaved like a bunch of children.

Seeing Roland step aside, Lothar and Networm hurriedly walked up, they both had a lot of questions to ask the old man.

"Why haven't any of these delegates, who sound terrible?" asked, Count Montenegro. In Lothar's impression, these guys who lived on the dark side of the royal capital should know these things better than One-Eye.

"Huh. My Earl, don't be intimidated by the races of these guys. Aside from the special talents of a few dark dwellers, these people don't get more information than we know. They are also busy with life, so unless it is the needs of life, many fields are also unfamiliar blind spots for them. Even, many of them may not be immune to the plague. ”

Roland's words made Lothar and the networm really know what the wisdom of the elders is. The bearded old man, with his knowledge of these aliens, dispelled the suspicions of both sides with just a few words, and made the conversation of this rally to the point. This has undoubtedly saved a lot of time for everyone, and there is no time left in the cheese schedule for them to slowly convince the reps one by one.

"If you knew it was so easy, why didn't you take out that potion in the first place?" asked Miss Mercenary. In the eyes of the networm, if Roland knew that the safety of the royal capital was the concern of these aliens, it would be better to tell One-Eye about it on the road.

"That's not good, if we don't show them our position and sincerity, and give them such a heavy topic as soon as they come up, I'm afraid these guys won't be thinking about whether to join us or not. They would immediately leave the venue and run home, pack their things and run. Roland subconsciously wanted to touch his beard, only to remember that the beard had just been burned off more than half two days ago.

"You're right, if you come up and tell them what the situation is. They will really run away on the spot. As far as I know, not all forces have the intention of defending their homeland. While the three of them were talking, Jason didn't know when he touched it. It's just that the other delegates are now attracted by One-Eye's words, and they don't notice the anomaly of the guide.

"Haha, thank you for helping me get the topic here. You should have known about these potions for a long time, right? Mr. Jason. The magician said as he looked meaningfully at the shadow.

"You're right. I did notice these so-called antidotes on the market. It's just that I don't have the skills of wizards and witches, and I just use it as a means for the Alchemist Guild to cheat money. I didn't expect those people to make such a terrible thing. The guide said, his tone still gentle.

"What? he's on the same side as us?" Lothar tilted his head, the conversation between the old man and the humanoid shadow made him a little dizzy.

"Your Excellency Lord Count of Montenegro. In fact, not only me, but many of the delegates here were actually sure to stand with Ms. Emia from the beginning. It's just that we're a little uneasy that the Witch Lord has asked ordinary people like you to negotiate with us. And now seeing this old gentleman, I think the witch's arrangement should still be reliable. Jason bowed slightly to Lothar and said.

"What the hell, you've all figured out why you still have to listen to us talk so much? It makes me nervous to death, thinking that I will break down at any moment. Spotted out, Lothar shrugged her shoulders awkwardly and complained.

"Of course, this rally is still meaningful. People like me who have decided to take sides are not the majority, after all. So it's still necessary to win allies as much as possible like this. And, in addition to those who are fighting for neutrality, we have to use this rally to find some people who are on the wrong side. Jason's voice grew lower and lower, and when he reached the end, his gentle voice gave a sense of extreme danger.

"Yes, we're not the only ones looking for allies. I'll tell you why Cheese asked the witches to get you this hammer, and it seems that he must have estimated this situation as well. Roland looked at the hammer in Lothar's hand and said.

"Before a full-scale war begins, it is necessary to remove the nails that the other side has laid on the ground. But don't worry, we're already prepared. The clean-up will begin when the rally is over. For now, let's listen to Mr. One-Eyed. ”
