Chapter 40: The Messenger from the Ice Field
This summer in Wolf City is destined to be eventful, not only did there happen the disappearance of the son of the Inspector's Mansion, but also found an unknown master sneaking across the city a few days ago, and today it is even more exaggerated, General Mengton of the Governor's Mansion actually took people out of the North City, as if he was waiting for someone to arrive. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ InfoWho is going to be coming over on the ice sheet?
Since the signing of the Treaty of Eagle Stone, the three countries have entered a phase of relative peace. The relatively peaceful situation also increased the trade and exchanges between the three parties, and the precious skins and precious stones from the ice fields continued to supply the luxurious human beings, and the powerful industry and commerce of the human beings also provided various basic living materials for the various parts of the ice fields. Even in the interior of the empire, people seem to have forgotten about the existence of war. After all, apart from the friction in the dark, in the past ten years, there has never been a war between the three countries on the surface.
However, the absence of war does not mean that there will not be war. The 10-year-old "Eagle Rock Treaty" is about to expire, and countless people are already waiting to see where the situation on the mainland will go again. Under these circumstances, the re-meeting of the three parties is already the trend of the times.
However, after ten years of development, the balance of power between the three countries has changed significantly, and correspondingly, the content of the treaty must be updated. The orc kingdom, which has obtained the status of the first military power on the mainland, will certainly not be willing to make a small profit ten years ago, and the human empire, which has gradually recovered from the war, will certainly not make too many concessions; only the god-given republic, due to the continuous civil strife, has never been able to achieve real development, they will be the party most concerned about this meeting.
The north gate of the wolf city, the cold iron giant gate that has almost forgotten the age for a long time, is like a silent god, which is intimidating.
On the ice field, the cold wind was raging, and a team of men and horses wearing cloaks came in a hurry.
"Elder Luosi, there is Wolf City in front, the city gate is closed, it doesn't seem that we are welcome!" The young knight leader, dressed in silver armor, was full of deference to the woman in front of him.
"It's okay, it's expected," Elder Luo Si wore a cloak, his voice was low, and he didn't get angry because of this: "In this negotiation with the Bright Empire, the direction of the Senate has already been determined, that is, to form an alliance with the Bright Dynasty as much as possible. Among the Three Kingdoms, our God-given republic is weak, and now even the orcs are eyeing it, so it's nothing if we suffer some grievances?"
The Silver Armor Knight Captain also sighed, "It's a pity that not everyone can understand the painstaking efforts of the Patriarch. To this day, there are still many people in the Senate who oppose this matter, and the battle of divine punishment has greatly damaged the vitality of my gods, and the position of consul has been vacant. This time, despite Elder Hawkins' push for the alliance, the Twilight Lord was still strongly opposed, and he had been lobbying the other elders, claiming that only ice and fire could restore the Protoss to its former glory, rather than shrinking the ice field, and the humans had been slandered as undead and could not be allowed to enter. β
"Hmph, that guy who is in the morning and twilight, I hate that I let him go in the first place. It seems that the lesson of the destruction of the Frozen Family is not profound enough!" Luo Si gently stroked the bauhinia flower that was showing off at the placket of his clothes, and said coldly, "Don't care about this kind of wall grass, it's not enough to succeed in the twilight of Qin." β
The Silver Knight smiled, equally disdainful of the Twilight family. It was Twilight's betrayal that wiped out the Frozen Family. Thinking of the family that has become history, the silver knight has a trace of pain and loss in his heart, if that powerful family is still there, maybe the god-given republic will not have to look up to people today. If the Twilight family is a living disgrace, the rebellious family that was wiped out is now a dead hero in the hearts of many.
Elder Luo Si said again: "Actually, don't worry too much, behind the seeming prosperity of the Human Empire, there are actually many crises. It's just that after thousands of years of accumulation, there are countless famous generals, and they are barely trying to maintain it. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I will repeat the mistakes of my god clan long ago. Elder Hawkins also hopes that we can take the opportunity to learn about the situation of the human empire and prepare for the future planning, after all, a weakened human empire will be our staunch ally. β
The topic was obviously too poignant and heavy, and both of them fell silent. Only the cold wind of the ice field was left howling, and the vast land created by countless years of war was particularly bleak.
Elder Luo Si glanced at the carriage at the back of the team, and suddenly sighed, "I hope the Bright Emperor will like the gift we gave him." β
The silver-armored knight also glanced at the carriage at the back of the team and took a deep breath, as if to calm some emotion in his heart.
Elder Luo Si glanced at the Silver Armor Knight deeply and said, "Knight Commander Dekun, I know that you feel a little uncomfortable in your heart, but this is related to the future of the Protoss. In the face of such a major right and wrong, the fate of the individual is nothing!"
Dekun looked at the patriarch of Luo Si in front of him, and sighed in his heart, this soft-looking woman was far more ruthless than her appearance, and her firmness and maintenance of the republican system of the Senate was admirable in the entire god clan. However, thousands of years later, the Protoss is declining. Now it has even reached the point of groveling to humanity.
Perhaps, the Protoss really needs a hero!,Dekun thought silently.
......
When Elder Luo Si came to the north gate of Wolf City, he found that the other party had only opened a small side door.
"Isn't this the hospitality of the Bright Dynasty?" Outside the city, Elder Luo Si took off the veil of low wind and sand, revealing a beautiful face, although she had been an elder for more than twenty years, the years did not seem to have left too many traces on her body.
"For guests, we naturally open our doors to welcome. But if the jackals comeβ" Monton raised his waist knife, his blonde hair flying, and laughed, "There are only knives, guns and clubs." β
"And who are we in the eyes of General Monton?" said Elder Lots, smiling slightly.
"It's just the undead!" Monton laughed, his tone full of disdain.
Dekun, who was dressed in silver armor, was immediately furious, and immediately rose from his horse and slashed at Monton, who was standing in front of the city gate. Monton directly raised the scabbard, and with a muffled sound, it easily resisted the opponent's knife momentum. As the commander of the Governor's Guard, the nominal commander of the Wolf Cavalry Battalion, Monton is not afraid of anyone's challenge.
"Dekun, don't be rude," Luo Si suddenly shouted. When Dekun heard the words, he was about to turn back.
"Want to go?" Monton laughed, "How can you do it regardless of victory or defeat?" he laughed and was about to pursue, but found that his whole body froze, as if something invisible was blocking him. He looked ahead, but saw Luo Si raise his hand slightly, smiling at himself. This woman is actually a master?
"I can't imagine that General Monton is so narrow-minded, as far as I know, General Monton's father doesn't seem to be human, right? There is an old saying in human beings that 'if you are not of our race, your heart will be different', I don't know what General Monton thinks?"
"I don't have much opinion, what the Governor thinks, I always think!" said Monton unconcernedly.
"It's just a loyal dog. The retreating silver-armored knight Dekun sneered.
"Thank you for the compliment, several, come with me into the city!" Monton smiled slightly, and without saying much, he was the first to enter through the side door.
Luo Si and Dekun glanced at each other, sighed and followed, no way, the situation is stronger than people.
