Chapter 187: Unifying Thoughts
"My lord, maybe we can contact the elves from the city of Connefila and resolve it through negotiation." Commercial Executive Darek proposed.
His field is in business, and he doesn't deal with elves once or twice, and Daric knows that elves who seem unapproachable to outsiders are actually no different from humans in nature.
There are elves who are hostile to the territory, so of course there can be those who are close to the territory. As for the so-called negotiated settlement, it is nothing more than a merciful instinct.
The words of the commercial director reminded Lord Epps of dying in the territory of Fairberth, and the Liaton Chamber of Commerce had a good relationship with the elves.
So did the elves who fought against the territory come for Fairbers? If not, it seems that you can ask Mrs. Patty to help you get a message to the elves.
Lord Epps calculated all the possibilities in his mind, and then the military chief Ko Yaen also put forward his own opinion, but his opinion was much more radical.
"Lord Lord, I think the territory must enter a state of combat readiness, the patrol of the Green Bead Forest must not only not stop, but also must be intensified, I suggest inviting the caster of the Tower of Time to participate in the patrol, the elf is not a body of steel, and he also needs to rest and eat, as long as he is forced out, he can be surrounded and killed." This made almost everyone in the conference room frown, and the people at the bottom may feel beautiful and elegant when they look at the elves, but they are all able to get in touch with the reality of the world.
The truth is that there are no simple beautiful and elegant creatures, and if there is no great strength, beauty and elegance itself is a curse.
And the elves can have the status they have now, not because of human mercy. Lord Epps listened, and shook his head in his heart, Ke Yann still knew too little about the spellcaster, and if he couldn't guarantee his own safety, the unknown elven mage would not expose his existence at all.
However, for the dare to fight psychology of his followers, Lord Epps still likes it very much, and the critical moment is to dare to fight, so he said: "Ke Yan, your idea is very good, but the caster does not have it for the time being, I will let Theon open the first armory, give priority to the patrol equipment, and report immediately when encountering elves, the soldiers in the territory are not worthless consumables, I will send the caster to fight." The lord's support made Keyan's heart happy, but he also felt a huge pressure, the so-called First Armory, which contained the most sophisticated equipment that the territory could obtain, and even a small amount of magical equipment among them.
When the others saw the attitude of the lord, they also understood it and came up with their own opinions, most of which were inclined to fight with the elves.
However, the true thoughts of the lord's heart are known only to him. In the end, the meeting did not discuss any rigorous plans, but it roughly unified the thoughts of all heads and brains in the territory, and laid a good psychological foundation for possible conflicts in advance.
However, after the meeting, returning to the Mage Tower, Lord Epps still revealed his true intentions to Aberk,
"The risk of going to war with the elves is too great, and if everything goes well on Connefila's side, maybe there won't be a conflict."
"But Eps, this time it was the elves who took the initiative to find it, and it's not up to us to decide." Alberke was cautious and worried about the matter.
"When my grandfather opened up the Savile Territory, there were also elves who came to stop it, and in the end, under the mediation of the Silver Leaf Family, he was able to successfully open up, and the current situation may be the same as it was at the beginning."
"But now Eps, you're not a Grand Arcanist!" Eber's words stung Lord Epps a little, but he also knew that Aberke didn't mean to be sarcastic, but was very worried.
"Abek, don't worry, Her Royal Highness the princess will also send someone to the celebration of the Ten Queens, as well as Archmage Ollong, and the elves will not act rashly."
"What about [Pleasant Blessings]? Everyone else is knocking on the door, are you still holding ridiculous illusions of peace? Abel was rather unkind.
"Abbeck, you-" Lord Epps sighed, running a territory is not just as simple as fighting and killing, it is a pleasure to start a war rashly, but the final result is unpredictable!
At this moment, Lord Epps hated himself extremely much, why couldn't he become a great arcanist with great power like his grandfather?
"Abberke, this matter is decided for the time being, as long as the other party no longer provokes, try to use peaceful means to deal with it." Lord Epps patted Abel on the shoulder and left on his own, leaving Abbeck alone to stand there and think for a long time.
…… On the other hand, Xia Duo enjoyed the blessing of several sense of crisis, and the progress of spell casting training improved by leaps and bounds, although he could not catch up with the accumulated experience of others for the time being, but he felt that he had improved a lot.
This morning, as soon as the practice at Tutor Niya's side was over, Ganar couldn't wait to leave, perhaps knowing that his brother didn't have much time left, and these Ganars came and went in a hurry.
And Xia Duo, who was also about to leave, was stopped by Nia,
"Mentor, what else do you have to say?" Niya's expression was weird, she wanted to speak and stopped, Xia Duo secretly said in her heart that it was not good, this kind of expression was nothing good at first glance, and she immediately wanted to dodge.
"Mentor, if there's nothing to do, I'll go back first, there's still a lot of work to deal with over there." It's over, Xia Duo wants to slip away, but he is one more by Nia
"Wait" shouted back.
"Mentor?"
"Xia Duo—" Nia was still very hesitant at this point, a few years ago she personally told Xia Duo not to leave the Mage Tower in the near future, but she didn't expect to turn around and want him to go out.
But this was ordered by her father, and Niya refused, but it didn't work out, and now she had to break the original words herself,
"Shado, I have a task for you." Really! Xia Duo knew that nothing good was good, but he couldn't refuse,
"Mentor, please command."
"I want you to leave the Mage Tower and invite Lady Patty to the Mage Tower." Isn't that very simple?
What's so hard about it? Xia Duo was a little puzzled, besides, if the Mage Tower invites someone, does he need to be invited by such an official mage?
Just because he's Pativ Rao's personal mage advisor? So what is Pativ Rao's true identity?
Xia Duo didn't think of Niya's difficulties for the time being, one was that Niya had warned him before, although he remembered, he wouldn't stick to it, and the top asked him to go out, could he still object?
And he didn't think that leaving the Mage Tower would necessarily be dangerous, if even the safety of the town could not be guaranteed, then the Savile Leader would be doomed a long time ago.
"No problem, Mentor, but I can't guarantee whether Lady Patty will come."
"It's okay, you just have to invite, you don't have to be responsible for the follow-up." In fact, Niya was also a little dissatisfied with her father's approach.
The murderer who killed Fairbers has not been caught until now, and he even wanted to suppress the matter before, but now that he is going to use the other party, and he can't pull his son to go in person, he can only embarrass her apprentice!
And Xia Duo agreed to leave the Mage Tower without thinking, and did not mention the previous warnings, which made Niya feel relieved, and also had a little more blessing for this obedient apprentice If Xia Duo brought it up, then her face would be lost to the other plane.
Of course, if Shado can win a good place in the arcane competition, then Nia will be even happier!
