But on the other hand, Badigal's previous attitude was clearly saying that the relationship between Nethrel and the elves, especially with Comanso, was about to improve, so why did he still have these unrealistic requirements?

Unless there is some excessive demand from Cormanso, Chardo really can't understand why the Council of Severynton agreed to liberate the gnomes and let them establish their own state!

What is the requirement, Xia Duo has no way to guess for the time being, this question, he thought for a while, and decided to put it aside for the time being, some things will still be revealed to the world after all.

As for asking Iolham, it is not necessary, and Iorham does not necessarily know the details of the negotiations between the Severington Council and the Northland countries to form the Northland Alliance.

Even if you know, you don't necessarily tell yourself.

Moreover, if Badigar suddenly announced such news on behalf of the Council of Severington during the day, it would definitely give an account to all the lords of Netheril.

Otherwise, if one of them is not good, the Nessera will be split soon.

Actually, it might have been more convenient for Chado to ask Badigar directly, but Badigar probably doesn't have much time to explain anything to him right now.

Anyway, just wait a few more days and everything will be clear.

……

After spending the last night in Seuventon, the next morning, Shado and Nia returned to the south, along with De Park, Gibson, and Harlan.

In Chado's original plan, the itinerary was not arranged like this, he originally planned to stay with Nia in Severton for a few more days, and even go out to sea if he had the chance.

However, now that such a big news has broken out in the Severton Council, the two of them have no intention of playing, and there is also some bad news from the territory.

So, the day after the snowmelt competition ended, the two went straight home.

As for Lord Rayson, as Xado expected, he did not appear in Severnton, but Xado had already conveyed to him his desire to visit him through the director of the Austro-French Federation, Brendes.

Stern the Arcanist, son of Lord Rayson and student of Grand Arcanist Cliff, personally contacted Shado to welcome Shado's visit on behalf of his father, Lord Rayson.

The two sides agreed to meet at the Reisen meeting in five days.

……

After returning to the south, Xia Duo's mood suddenly became much lighter.

Whether it's a demon or a dwarf, these questions won't bother him for quite some time, and he can play as freely as he wants.

However, there are many troubles, and Mayor Sean has asked the mage of the Tower of Time to send a message to Nia that a villager from a village west of the Wolfburg River has found a fish-man by the river.

Last year's fish-man incident has not even been a year since now.

And now, the fish-people have been found by the river, which is extremely sensitive to any Saville people, especially those who live by the river.

Without delay, the discoverer immediately notified the town office, and when Mayor Sean arrived at the scene, the territorial guards who arrived in advance had already killed the two fishmen who had been found.

Yes, there are only two fish-people.

At first, when Shado was in Severton, he heard Nia say that there were fishmen in the territory again, and he thought it was another fish-man crowd, but when he learned that there were actually only two fish-people, he really couldn't laugh or cry.

However, this also reminded him that after the fish-man crowd last year, although the vast majority of fish-people were wiped out by the negative energy wave created by the Death Priest, there were really not a few fish that slipped through the net.

It's only been about half a year, and some fishmen have touched Saville and brought them, and if these fishmen are allowed to breed for a few more years, it will be really difficult to clean up.

Tower of Time, Nia's Study.

After making tea and adjusting the window projection to the Wolfburg River, she said to Nia: "It's spring, the season of recovery, but it's also the best time to control the number of fishmen. ”

"What do you want to do?" Nia asked.

"Send the Territorial Guard to sail north along the Wolfburg River, focusing on clearing the nets between Savile and Lake Mecht!"

The reproduction ability of the fish-man is indeed very strong, but that is in the case of a large base, if the base is less, can the fish-man still be an adult in a year, and then the adult will give birth every year?

This would not have been possible without the special magical influence.

Generally, it takes at least ten years for fishmen to grow to the stage of being able to give birth, and as long as they are cleaned up during this period, it will be much easier to control them after that time they are kept cleaning up and waiting until the total number drops to a certain extent.

This is also different from goblins, which are now overflowing, while fishmen are not, there are relatively limited numbers, and the living environment of fishmen and goblins is also different.

Although they are amphibians and can go ashore, they cannot stay away from the water source, unlike goblins, who can run around with their legs extended.

In other words, as long as you clean up along the river and sift it over and over again, sooner or later you can completely eliminate the fish-people, provided that they do not overflow.

The sea is the real destination of the fish-people, and the rivers in the mainland, no matter how large, are very limited.

Of course, with the current strength of the Saville Leader, it is almost impossible to eliminate all the nearby fishmen, and all Xia Duo wants is to delay the time when the number of fishmen skyrockets as much as possible.

If you don't clean it up this year, the number of fishmen will increase several times next year, and it will be doubled again the year after that, knowing that ten years later, a new generation of fishmen will start to give birth, and it will be almost impossible to control, unless you go to the Priest of Death for a few more negative energy baptisms.

But that's obviously not realistic, not to mention whether you can find a death priest who has the ability to control the torrent of negative energy, and even if you find it, you have to consider the risk of negative energy getting out of control.

It is better to start from the source and limit the number of fish-people from the beginning.

……

After listening to Xia Duo's suggestion, Niya did not immediately agree, but thought about it seriously, and said for a long time: "This method is very good, but now the Savile Leader is not capable of doing such a thing. ”

"Why?"

"Sending the Territorial Guard along the river to clean up the Fishmen, as you said, from Savile to Lake Mecht, requires at least 50 soldiers, two boats, and at least two months, have you considered the cost of this time?"

"Of course I've thought about it, it's only about 10,000 gold coins a month!" Shado replied calmly.

"Isn't 10,000 gold coins a lot?"

Niya's eyes widened and she looked at Xia Duo in shock, "In the past, Savile's net income for a year was only about 100,000 gold coins!" With such a flower, how can you save so much savings! ”

In this regard, Xia Duo shook his head, "You also said, it was last year, and now the Tower of Time has at least one million dollars a year, so why bother with tens of thousands of gold coins!" ”
