Chapter 1394: Conditions, Temptations
Soon, Tove made a condition -
"Any piece of information related to the High Mage is precious, so I need Lord Xia Duo to support the Moon Crown Family in the next spice sharing negotiation, or to take out the two designated high-grade spice living plants."
These two conditions may not seem harsh, but they are full of pitfalls.
First of all, the two percent of the spices are divided, how to divide them before the three parties have already been negotiated, not to mention the next negotiation to sit on the ground, just this matter itself, Xia Duo will not be able to agree.
You must know that the source of spices is not Xia Duo himself, but the Lord of Collins, unless Xia Duo is willing to give up his share, otherwise he is betraying the interests of Collins.
And if he gave up his share, it would almost be equivalent to his complete exit from the spice smuggling business, and even if Xia Duo agreed, Collins would not necessarily agree.
What's more, it was impossible for Xadow to privately promise Tove before consulting with Collins.
And the other condition - to take out the designated two high-grade spice living plants, it is certain that they must be the spices that have long been extinct in the elven realm, and only exist in a few ancient ruins.
Lord Collins may have as a relic master, but Chardo really doesn't.
Tofu mentioned this condition, either he wanted him to bleed heavily and find Collins to exchange, or he wanted him to find Collins to steal or rob, and Xia Duo preferred the latter possibility.
This kind of thing, even if Xia Duo has the ability to do it, he will not do it.
As for the exchange, the two high-grade spices that are now extinct in the elven society are almost priceless until there is no other source.
Obviously, these two conditions of Tofti are too difficult for a strong man.
夏多不是很理解,难道对方之前表现出的缓和乃至热情,就是为了这一刻的强人所难吗?
"Ms. Tove, you should know that it is impossible for me to agree to these two conditions, can I exchange them for other conditions?"
"Unfortunately, unless you can provide the Mooncrown family with Mithril ore, it can only be these two conditions. Actually, the most important information I have already told you is that as long as Lord Xia Duo acts cautiously, he can completely ignore the threat of Jerinis. ”
Tove seemed to want to persuade Xia Duo to agree to the conditions, but Xia Duo proposed after thinking for a while: "I think it can be replaced with such conditions-
"With the information provided by the Mooncrown Family, I will arrange an assassination to completely destroy Jerinis, I think if the Mooncrown Family and Jerinis have a good relationship, Lady Tove will not come to remind me!"
"Can you kill Jerinis?" Tove's eyes widened, as if he wanted to get to know Xia Duo again.
But Xia Duo shook his head honestly, "No, but I can ask my teacher for help, as long as it is planned properly, even a high-level mage may die!" ”
Of course, this is still nonsense, not to mention whether Iolem will agree or not, it is impossible for Xia Duo himself to put aside the golden opportunity for peaceful development to carry out any assassination.
In addition, the Northland Alliance is facing the threat of drow, and will not allow too many targeted deaths to occur in various countries at this stage.
However, Chardo's answer gave Tove a pensive expression, as if he was really considering the feasibility of this matter.
Seeing this scene, Xia Duo couldn't help but be a little nervous, he was really worried that the other party would agree, in that case, he would be a little passive, not only how many brain cells would have to spend to fool this farce.
"Ms. Tove, let's talk about Jerinis for now, no matter how you deal with it, you and I need to think about it carefully."
Here, Xia Duo brought this matter to the Moon Crown family alone, of course, the identity of this Tove has yet to be confirmed, and the other party's purpose is always in the clouds.
But at this moment, there seemed to be some tacit understanding between one man and one elf, and Tove seemed to realize that such a secret topic was not suitable for development here, so he responded to Xia Duo's proposal, and said:
"What else does Lord Chado want to ask? Did I do something to those human mages? I can tell you very clearly that I didn't do anything to them. ”
Tove said this so resolutely that Xia Duo had a delusion about whether he had made a miscalculation, but the truth was-
Although Xia Duo couldn't determine the specific details of Tove's spell at that time, he was at least sure that the other party had cast the spell.
However, with Tove's current attitude, Xia Duo probably can't ask anything, and if he entangles it again, maybe the other party will turn his face.
So, Xia Duo changed the topic at the right time, "I know, this matter will end here."
"'When I was in Severynton the other day, I heard the teacher mention the Mooncrown Family's Master Quirserin, and the teacher praised him, but I don't know what Lady Tove's relationship with him is—"
"He's my uncle!"
That's all Tove said, and then he kept silent.
Xia Duo saw that the other party didn't seem to want to talk about his family's situation, but he continued to ask, "I heard that Master Quelcelin once challenged the crown king of Elisel, is this true?" ”
Earlier in Severten, Xado and Iolem had spoken about the various challengers to Elisel, a topic that had been extended from Everisca's Uviren Challenger.
Among them, Quelcelin of the Mooncrown Family was mentioned, and Xia Duo asked a few more questions because he was more interested in the Mooncrown Family, and this time it happened to be used to test Tove.
At that time, the duel between Quelceline and the crown king of Elisel was at a banquet, and the junior was rude, but the crown king accepted it very generously and taught Quelselin a good lesson.
Although Quelceline lost, at Comanso, there was no shame in it, but it was very glorious.
After all, not everyone has the opportunity to get the king's personal guidance, it is a showy experience!
If Tove is really a member of the Mooncrown family, even if the family and the crown king have different political positions, the nature of the matter itself will not change much, as long as it is a member of the true Mooncrown family who is asked, they should all answer.
In fact, Iorham somehow got the magical image of the banquet at that time, because Xia Duo asked about it, so he showed Xia Duo it.
Now it's up to Tove to answer!
Do you continue to play dead, or do you just do it, or do you want to boast about it?
"It's true, but it can't be said that Uncle Quelcelin challenged the crown, but the crown king gave Uncle Quelcelin guidance, it was an autumn celebration banquet, but I was not there at the time, so I don't know the specific situation."
Xia Duoming nodded with a clear face, but he couldn't help shaking his head in his heart, Tove's answer seemed very unusual to him.
Elves value most of the family, value the family members, and now there is an opportunity to brag in front of humans, how can they miss it, unless-
That's not your own family!
