This time, the new round is not in the previous magnificent hall, but in a garden courtyard, where a kind-looking elven elder is introducing guests to Xia Duo-

A high mage from the kingdom of Lis.

Of course, this one also has an identity, that is, the former foreign affairs adviser of the crown king, and this time he came to the kingdom of Taal as a special envoy of the crown king at the invitation of the elven court elder.

As soon as he sensed his surroundings, he figured out the situation in front of him, this former foreign affairs adviser from a neighboring country visited the elven court not exactly in response to the elder's invitation, but more importantly to find out what the crown king of Taal thought, that is, his own thoughts.

Soon, the two sides were introduced, but Xia Duo found that time in the garden seemed to stand still, and all the elves were motionless except for him.

"Thinking about time?"

Xia Duo was thoughtful, but only a moment had passed since he issued the order, and he could not be more clear about what he was thinking at that time, and after a little thought, he said to the envoy of the crown king:

"The relationship between the two countries of Taal and Ryth goes back a long way, and now the Ty'Kviser clan is facing many tests, whether it is the increasingly complex situation in the Northlands, or the Drow army that may rush out of the ground at any time for another killing feast,

"Or the declining magical civilization that urges us to unite and meet the challenges of the future as a cohesive whole.

"Now that Thal is on the right path, why don't the Kingdom of Liss follow the trend of history and forge a better future together?"

After a pause, Shado said, "As for the interests of the families in the kingdom of Lis, I promise in the name of the Akalama family that they will continue in the new kingdom. ”

After speaking, he realized that almost every speech in this meeting was a round, and he needed to take the initiative to end the round, and then he would continue to deduce, and there would be a new round.

At the end of the round, the Lester envoy spoke, in a deep and resolute tone, "King Akalama, I believe that everything you say is true, but the inherent tradition of Danis, please allow us to refuse, it is not only the will of our king, but also the will of most of our Ryth elves. ”

In this regard, Xia Duo smiled slightly, he had long known that the kingdom of Lisi in the trial corresponded to the kingdom of Akola outside.

In the projection plane, Akora declined the invitation of Jalensta and the other forces, not wanting to be part of the emerging Comanso.

On the main plane, thousands of years later, in the time of Shado's life, the Akora had already sealed off the Ristal Forest (the northwestern part of the country after the destruction of Uveron) with a mystery, denying any outsiders (elves) to enter.

Then in this trial, there must be this kind of performance, but this Lester envoy refused so firmly and directly, which still surprised Xia Duo.

He thought the other party would say something about the scene!

After thinking about it, Xia Duo said: "Although the integration of political entities cannot be carried out for the time being, you and I can still have a lot of common topics in dealing with Starr Forest, fighting against Drow, and people-to-people exchanges.

"Now that I have stopped the development of the people of Taal in the northwest, I intend to establish a number of trading cities on the border between the two countries, and the resources of the two sides will complement each other and share a win-win situation, I don't know what your opinion is?"

In fact, it is difficult for the Kingdom of Riss to refuse, whether it is the Akora of the projection plane or the akora of the main plane, their largest territory is only a small part of the northwest corner of the original Ristal Forest.

And this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that there is not much room for development around the Koala, and Comanso, after merging Jalenstad and other forces, most of the remaining areas of the Ristal Forest are legally under its jurisdiction.

The difference in theoretical territory between the two is six or seven times.

Xia Duo didn't know what the Cormanso crown king in the history of the main plane did, but he preferred to use royal means to gain legitimate rule over the kingdom of Lis.

Constant communication, continuous cooperation, cultural assimilation of each other, economic dominance of each other, coupled with their own strong military capabilities, there is no reason not to be attached.

In fact, in the elven society, the crown king does not have absolute authority, to a large extent, as long as the major families reach an agreement, the crown king has to obey.

In the final analysis, the crown king is only a representative of one of the stronger families, and it is not necessarily the strongest family, of course, if you want to say that the most prestigious and credible, it is very possible.

……

Sure enough, after Xia Duo ended, the scene jumped back to the original magnificent hall, and the advisors once again fed him back to the results of the deduction after the end of the last round-

"The two countries signed a framework agreement on deepening exchanges, covering border trade, people-to-people exchanges, resource development, fighting orcs, tracking drow, etc."

With a good start, the rest will fall into place.

The high-ranking mages behind the trial did not cause any unexpected events such as the sudden rebellion of Xia Duo's subordinates or disasters from the sky, and most of the follow-up was premised on his actions.

This also means that as long as you think it through (covering the imagination of the mage behind the trial), you are basically in control.

Soon, in the deduction, the kingdom of Lisi became more and more dependent on the kingdom of Tar, not only economically and more integrated into the Taal system, but also culturally.

Often, what is popular in the Thar capital will soon appear in the Liz capital, and the popular voice for joining the Tahr or forming the United Kingdom is also growing.

This continued until a Ress elf, who had studied at the High School of Magic in the capital of Tar and returned to China as a high mage, appeared.

This directly broke through the psychological defense line of a small number of people in power in the country, and the war could not be fought again, and it would only be a slow death if it continued to drag on.

Anyway, if they join the Taal Kingdom, they won't lose much of their own interests, but may increase them additionally.

In this way, the kingdom of Liz was integrated into the kingdom of Thal almost without any waves, and finally Shado named the unified country the kingdom of Ristar, which also corresponds to "Komanso".

……

"Lyle, we have been amazed by your performance, and I now have some faith that you are the prophesied King of Komanso.

"But the trial is not over yet, there is one final trial waiting for you, and if you can pass it, then I will offer my loyalty!

"You have to be reminded that Keffum fell before you in this last item, and of course, he didn't perform as well as you in the first two."

Being able to communicate to the trialist during the trial is undoubtedly one of the two high mages who preside over the trial ceremony.

When he heard that he might have a follower of a high mage, Rao is state of mind couldn't help but ripple at this moment.

You must know that his incarnation of "Lyle Akarama" is only an elite mage, equivalent to a high-level mage among humans, while a high-level mage of the elves is equivalent to a human archanist, and the upper limit may be even higher.

Even having a High Mage Follower in the projection plane is exciting.

"Could it be that the source of this trial is really the prophecy of the crown king of Osens, not a gimmick?"

Xia Duo couldn't help but have such speculations.
