Shaman from Afar

"In the name of Duke Frid, the guardian of the dignified and majestic Principality of Lothal, the defender of the Holy Cross, I would like to extend my most sincere greetings to the elders of the Morning Star Forest Elves. May you all live long!

In the long house at the top of the morning star forest cloud crown tree, an exquisite dark green robe, a duke messenger with golden long chains and silver buckles stood calmly in front of the elves and elders, and his proud eyes were almost picking up on the beam.

And beside him stood a still young priest of Holy Cross, with a serious expression and even a little nervousness, even if Loren stood here, he could not recognize that this was when he was in Gumu Town. Passed his little priest.

"I also wish the ancient wood forest to bless and bless the longevity of Duke Frid." Elder Born sitting in the center frowned, apparently very dissatisfied with the attitude of the Duke's emissary.

And this meeting was also the result of the agreement between the two parties-the Morning Star Forest Settlement will reach an alliance with the Duke Frid, and the caravans of the elves can be unimpeded throughout the land of the Principality of Lothal, and they are no longer limited to Such a place as Shenlinbao.

The Duke will provide the elves of the Morning Star Forest with all the support they need at every ogren invasion, not only iron, armor, and even medicine, until the end of the invasion-and the elves We must ensure that the ogres are kept in the forest and no ogres are allowed to flow into the land of the Principality.

As a price, Morning Star Forest must pay tribute to Duke Frid every year, the best honey wine of the year, the total amount is half of the new wine of that year, and precious animal skins, rare flowers and grasses as gifts, send messengers to the Duke ’s hunting banquet, prove that both parties Friendship and alliance.

Generally speaking, the conditions are very favorable to Morningstar Forest, and even better than the noble lords in many princes, which proves that Duke Frid really treats them as corresponding allies, not as vassals.

This has already been discussed by both parties, and Elder Bohn is not worried that the other party will regret it. But when he saw the extremely proud expression of the Duke's emissary, he felt an indescribable aversion.

"I don't know why you visit again, what exactly is it?" Elder Bowen made his tone sound as calm as possible: "I hope our hospitality will not disappoint you. What needs can be mentioned."

"You are so polite, but I am not talking about your hospitality." The Duke's messenger smiled somewhat "preserved": "but more importantly, some small questions about the covenant between you and the Duke."

"Oh, isn't that already done?"

"Of course, what the Duke promised will certainly not be regretted-but there are some small details and necessary conditions that need to be added to make this covenant look more reasonable."

"Don't go too far!"

Another elf elder stood directly from his position, glaring at the duke messenger who was still "smiling": "We still promise to ally with you, does not mean that we should bow down to the duke!"

"Yes, but please don't forget, if you don't have the support of Lord Duke, you won't be able to win this war." The Duke's messenger didn't even bother to look at the elf elder. He was extremely proud: "Isn't it? No With the permission of Lord Duke, even an iron ingot cannot appear here! "

"Under such circumstances, you not only did not thank your savior, but even spoke badly to his messenger. Is this the politeness of the elves ?!"

"you this……"

"sit down!"

Elder Born interrupted the elf elder and looked back coldly at the Duke ’s envoy: "Please also make it clear what is this so-called" small details "?"

"Of course is the premise of the alliance between the two parties-because of the war, this matter was temporarily shelved; but now that the war is over, it is natural to solve those problems that still need to be solved!"

The Duke's messenger nodded slightly, not as if it had been interrupted: "As you know, the Principality of Lothal is a land shrouded in the light of the Holy Cross. Lord Duke is also a devout believer; as a One of the most important duties of devout believers is to spread the faith of the Holy Cross. "

"And as an important ally of Lord Duke, the elves of Morning Star Forest also naturally became the people of Holy Cross, shining by the divine glory." The Duke's messenger looked intoxicated and danced: "This is not just a requirement , Is also an honor, so that the elves can also be bathed in this glory! "

As he said, he also dragged the little priest beside him: "And this is a saint of the Holy Cross, a holy priest, he will lead you to the real path of light, no longer need to be dark Enveloped, there is no need to fear evil gods and terrible monsters, because they will be nothing to hide from before the Holy Cross! "

"Uh ... yes, yes!" The little priest who was suddenly pulled up looked nervous, trembling and chattering, and his dreaded eyes kept dodge: "Being a holy cross's people is a matter of great glory ,me……"

"The elves of Morning Star Forest will never accept an alien **** for no reason!"

Before the little priest made it clear, the angry Elder Born said directly: "Frankly speaking, your behavior is simply extortion, naked extortion!"

"Maybe the elves in the future will accept the glory of the Holy Cross, maybe never-but that can only be voluntary, not forced to force it!" The trembling elder only stood up from the position Get up: "Take a ten thousand steps back, even if we agree, the elves in the Morning Star Forest and the entire eastern forest will definitely not accept such a result!"

"Then you can only express regret at the bottom."

The Duke's messenger pouted and shrugged his shoulders disdainfully: "If you can't be the people of the Holy Cross, without the witness of the Holy Cross, Lord Duke will never be allied with you-this is everything premise!"

"This is extortion, and we absolutely do not accept any form of extortion!"

"This is not extortion, this is only a necessary condition!" The Duke Envoy still does not give up: "This is also the will of the Holy Cross!"

"Let me put it another way, Dear Honorable Messenger!" Elder Bowen forcibly suppressed his anger, and his aging eyes stared at the face of the messenger: "If we give up the big tree wall on the border, let the cannibals The demon entered the Principality of Lothal through the forest. What will the supreme Holy Cross do? "

"You, how dare you ..."

The Duke Messenger was surprised ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ I didn't expect these elves to have the courage to refuse, even threatening the Duke in this way? !

"boom--!"

The door behind him was suddenly knocked open, and the half-dead prince messenger almost hid behind the little priest. With a team of war dancers, Luca walked in step by step and surrounded the "master messenger" in the middle of the long house.

"You, what are you doing ?!" Seeing this posture of the Duke's Messenger finally panicked, some hysterically stared at the elder Born in front of me: "I am the Duke's messenger, and if I hurt me, it will hurt the Duke. , Hurting the Duke is equivalent to declaring war on the entire Principality! "

"You can rest assured that we have absolutely no intention of hurting you." Lucca, who has always been kind, has involuntarily brought a bit of sarcasm in his tone. Looking back at Elder Bohn in front of him: "The Expedition has returned, and has just arrived at the Big Tree Wall."

"I'm back ?!" Elder Bowen stood up this time with a serious look: "How many ?!"

"There are only a dozen left, and they are not disabling." Luca's expression is ugly: "Korno has sacrificed. Morning Starwood's war dancer, only Liya returned."

"What about him ?!" Elder Bohn didn't notice the sentence behind Luca, staring at the leader of the war dancer.

"Not yet restored, but should be alive." Of course Luca knew who the elder was talking about.

"That's enough ... that's enough ..." Elder Bowen let out a long sigh of relief, and looked sarcastically at the still-frightened Duke Messenger: "Sorry, Your Excellency, this meeting may be Come to an end. "

"We are going to greet a friend, a hero who ended this invasion!"
