414 Trial
Like most of the nomadic herders of the Tucan steppes, the three khans of Philo, Dakan, and Tian wore stinking leather coats, their long fluffy hair braided into strings of pigtails, their tousled beards clumped up on their chins, and their eyes flashed with the cunning and greed of a falcon.
After the death of the legendary Yamen Great Khan at the Battle of Cormier, his descendants died one after another on the way back to the Tucans - either at the hands of the pursuing Faeron, or at the hands of the steppe people themselves because of the crash of prestige, and the inheritance left behind in the endless wilderness was wiped out by successive rebellions.
Today's steppe is full of forces, led by the three khans with the largest power and the most shepherds, who are constantly attacking each other.
However, no matter how sharp the hatred of each other, in the sacred land of the steppe people, they abide by the ancient conventions: vegetarianism, abstinence, and cessation of war.
They stared at the two pairs of men sitting under the tent under the tight guard of the guards.
One was a young, thin wizard, and an old, short, fat attendant, whose servants had been kept under close guard.
The other pair is a man and a woman, the man looks ordinary, and he doesn't look like a hero at a glance, but the three khans see an extraordinary calmness, which makes them look sideways, and the innocent girl is extremely beautiful and cute.
The steppe people don't need to be interrogated, and by what they see when they catch these people, they know which side is the pursuer and which side is the pursuer.
"Oh, a few Westerners from afar, who would love to treat you to milk wine and barbecue. Tian's small eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he looked at the people below: "But to move troops in front of the sacred land of the steppe people, this is a violation of the sacred covenant on the grassland, you need to pay some price, I don't know if you have any explanation?"
"Your Majesty, the three mighty Khans, with the wisdom of the three of you, it should not be difficult to tell that I am just a hunted man. Naturally, Penny said, "I'm not the one who started the fight, I'm just an innocent." ”
"In any case, Bing Ge is up because of you. Philo Khan said, his voice was very bold, and among the three khans, he was also the largest: "In the eyes of the steppe people, crimes are equal. ”
"Wait, Your Majesty. Noticing that his master's mind was ownerless, the old apprentice Oraza knew that Litanya had been a little confused - as a relative of the chief, the eldest young master of Litanya in Serre had never encountered such a dilemma: "Of course you can punish us violators, but I don't think killing is necessarily good for the khans, and you don't know the identity of my young master yet." ”
The three khans glanced at each other, and Oraza was overjoyed in his heart - the current steppe people have long lost their former sharpness, if it was in the era of Yamen Khan, the steppe people would never hesitate because of Oraksa's words, and no one dared to threaten the steppe king - even if it was only a slight threat.
Sensing the hesitation of several khans, Oraza struck while the iron was hot: "Ladies and gentlemen, my young master of Litania has a maternal grandmother whose name is Misrila, and I think you are not unfamiliar with Serl, and you should also know something about this name. ”
"Misrila!" the thin Dakan Khan had a look of surprise on his face and glanced at Litania: "You are Serre's red robe?"
"As you say. Ulasa bowed his head respectfully, sneering in his heart, he often dealt with the steppe people in Serre, and he could no longer understand the virtues of these steppe people, for in times of war they were wolves, and in trade they were also a pack of hungry wolves that could not be fed, ruthless and mercenary, and in many cases they could do a lot for the sake of profit.
Brought to this place, Olasa could easily guess that these steppe people had no intention of killing them - otherwise they would have been killed when they were captured, and now that they were brought here, the intention was obvious:
Extort.
If no benefits are knocked out, then the fate of Litania is undoubtedly tragic.
Therefore, Orasa wanted to let the steppes know the benefits that Litanya could give them, or rather, the benefits that Misrila could give them: "Your Majesty the Khan, you are no stranger to Mistress Misa's name, and you should know how great power and wealth she wields in Serre, and if the Khans wish to be friends with the Chief, we will be glad to give you the best of thanks. ”
The faces of the three khans suddenly showed expressions of interest.
Although the name is followed by the title of Khan, it seems to be very majestic, but the land they really own is only a dozen of the grassland, and they are only regarded as the Khan of a large grassland because of their strong strength. And the name of Seren, the most powerful country in the Desperate Eastern Regions, is of course thunderous to these khans, and the name of Misrila, the head of the illusion department, is certainly not unfamiliar to them.
The benefits that can be obtained by befriending such a person, of course, are obvious.
To them, no matter how high or strong the red-robed mage's mana was in the Endless Wilderness, the area of the dead demons, it was meaningless, but the huge power possessed by a Serge Chief was enough to make their hearts move.
"The red-robed mage. The Philo Khan muttered, "Annihilation of the Searles." ”
In this way, he had to discuss with the other two Great Khans how to accept the friendship of these Serles.
"Well, the grandson of His Excellency Misrila. Thian nodded, and instructed a few of the attendants to serve Litania cushions and teacups, accepting their friendship.
Litania was overjoyed, and immediately his expression became hideous, and he stretched out his finger to Panny, who had been silent after saying a word on the other side: "Venerable Khan, he is my hated enemy, and if you can fulfill my wish to kill him, my grandmother will trust our friendship even more!"
The corners of Orasa's mouth twitched, of course he knew that this was his own young master talking nonsense, if this group of steppe people killed Penny, then Misriela would definitely not have any gratitude, on the contrary, it was very likely that he would turn his face, this was purely Litania taking the opportunity to take revenge.
However, he didn't mean to talk too much, because Litania threatened to kill him if he talked too much.
He didn't want to give up his life yet.
Several khans turned to Penny.
"By the way, this Westerner seems to have said outside the Holy Land that he had come in search of the Great Prophet. Theon said.
The corners of Litanya's forehead suddenly bruised, and he remembered that when he was surrounded by the steppes, his nasty rival seemed to have shouted, 'I have come to meet the Great Prophet,' apparently to avoid death, a cunning fellow.
Then he quickly said: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is clear that this vile clown is trying to survive on this ridiculous lie. ”
Oraza's heart suddenly froze, looking at Litania's hideous face and Penny Sean's calm face, and suddenly felt that it was not a good idea to let Litania continue to talk like this.
"Tell me, Westerners. Philo Khan frowned and turned to Penny, "Who are you, and why did you come to the Great Prophet?" ”
"My best known name is Pan Diesel. Penny glanced at the lively Litania on the other side, and calmly faced the three khans: "As for who I am, I am the elder of the Wizards' Association of the Dragon Coast and the head of trade, the head of the Council of Simon City, and an ally of Silvermoon City. ”
Of course, the latter words were nonsense, and Penny was just in a hurry, hoping that these steppe people would not kill them immediately, but at this time, the latter words were not important, the important thing was that the long list of titles in front smashed the three khans in a daze, and Litania's hideous face suddenly became a little iron-blue, because only then did he remember that his enemy did not seem to be a nobody.
"Ahem, Dragon Coast. Dakan Khan, whose forces were on the west side of the Endless Wilderness, coughed, "It's far enough there, Pan Diesel, wait, I think I've heard the name......"
The two khans next to him stared sideways at him, waved their hands, and ordered their men to prepare the cushions and banquet for Penny.
"That's right. Dakan Khan looked at Penny in shock: "You are the ** division that destroyed the Night Mask and beat the Cormiers to the ground!"
The other two khans were also shocked, ending the failed battle of the Western Expedition that year ago, which took place in Komir, and the leader of the Faeron coalition at that time was the Yawen IV of Komir, the defeat of Yamen Khan, so that the name once spread throughout the steppe, although now the king of Cormir was replaced by his son, but in the minds of the steppe people, Cormir is still a strong country.
The man in front of him, who is not amazing, has the ability to make this powerful country suffer?
"Lies!" said Litanya angrily, "Khans, you must be aware of everything, why would such a person come to the Endless Wilderness, an area that mages do not want to set foot in? ”
Several khans suddenly became suspicious and looked at each other, which is also a question worth considering.
Ordinary wizards really shouldn't easily set foot in the endless wilderness, a place that is not friendly to magic, especially high-level mages, here, even a shepherd boy has the ability to easily kill the ** master.
"I want to meet the great prophet of the steppe. Penny said with a pouting in a carriage, "Of course I have to come in person to show my respect and importance to that prophecy, should I send a lowly servant?"
Dakan Khan was silent for a while: "But in any case, Westerners, your identity and intentions are indeed suspicious. ”
"I can certainly prove it. The wizard quietly took out three emerald gems and handed them to the attendant next to him: "A few small gifts, for the honorable three khans, to show their hearts." ”
A few stones fell on the table of the three great khans, and they looked at the transparent green round stone in front of them, their faces full of confusion, but a fat man next to Dakan Khan suddenly became excited:
"Great Khan! Honorable Great Khan......! This is the Emerald Dragon's Tear, a specialty of West Hartland! It is the most precious jasper stone in the entire multiverse! The whole of Feren is only produced in one place in the Dragon Forest of West Hartland! This is ......"
Litania and Oraza's faces suddenly became very ugly.
