Arcane Lord

v2 Chapter 1706: domineering, sinister

After hearing this, Xia Duo was silent for a moment, and then began to contact Said.

Not to mention the invisible alliance between him and Jenna in the field of ascension to the gods, but the interest between the Tower of Time and the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce can't be so perfunctory.

Since Said is a senior arcanist, Xia Duo did not use the common one-way communication, but directly constructed a real-time communication spell, waiting for the other party's response.

After a while, the aura of the communication spell changed for a while, and finally appeared in the study as a magical image with blurred edges and clear middle.

Said, who was in a hurry, appeared in the video, as if he had just put down his work and connected to the communication temporarily, "Lord Xia Duo, why are you looking for me so urgently?"

"Consultant Sid, I'm sorry to bother you, it's about the thing I asked De Parker to find you before, remember?"

"that matter?"

In the video, Seid’s expression froze for a moment, and then he suddenly realized, “It’s the purchase of armaments from Evereska, I remember! I asked Balkan to do this. He is very proficient in the rules of elf society. , I can rest assured that he will handle the matter."

"Then he just informed De Parker that the elf asked him to meet tomorrow, do you know about that?"

"An appointment to meet tomorrow?"

Seide suddenly realized why Xia Duo was looking for him, "Wait a minute, let me ask, and I must give Lord Xia Duo a satisfactory explanation."

"Gene Age"

Then, Seid in the magic image stopped moving. After about two or three minutes, the image shook violently, and Seid regained his vitality.

"Lord Xiaduo, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I asked Balkan just now. This matter is complicated, and it also involves Cormanthor."

Cormanthor again? These shit-stirring sticks!

Xia Duo was still annoyed by the magic restriction treaty just now, but now hearing the name of Comanthor again, the fire of ignorance in his heart soared all of a sudden.

"Advisor Saide, please tell me carefully, why is this matter related to Comanso again?"

"Human beings are sensitive when they appear in the elven city, let alone go to the upper city to drill camp. This matter is almost impossible to do secretly. In fact, Evereska is very willing to sell armaments to humans.

"At that time, Balkan had already negotiated with the second son of an elder of the Evereska Council of Elders about the arms purchase intention, and they didn't care about the competition between Netheril and Comanthor. As long as they found the right way for this kind of thing, let them Profitable, they simply won't say no.

"But after the matter was known by Ambassador Comanso, the nature changed, and the things promised by the elder's second son were naturally not counted.

"And in order to hit Netheril's reputation, Ambassador Cormanthor forced the elder to make a bet with him, betting the sincerity of mankind by setting the meeting time on Midsummer's Day.

"As long as human beings are sincere, they will agree to arms purchases, otherwise they will not agree."

Speaking of this, Seid hesitated for a moment, and expressed his opinion: "Their bet has already spread in Evereska. If Lord Xiaduo is inconvenient to send someone, Mingshui Chamber of Commerce can be famous, as long as Our people have passed, according to Balkan, even if we don’t give money, Ambassador Comanso will give us those armaments.”

"Of course, it's not their Comanso's stuff anyway. If it's me, I can give it to others!"

Although it was just a joke, Xia Duo had already realized Cormanthor's vicious intentions.

Needless to say, not sending people would directly prove that humans are liars. At least the reputation of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce represented by Balkan in the elf world would be affected in the future.

But if no one is sent, it will be more serious. The Lord of Radiance can almost be said to be the official belief of Netheril. Even if some mages and even some territories do not believe in this, they must admit it.

At least Xia Duo has never seen any territory that dared to openly oppose the Lord of Radiance, and almost no one who only opposed the faith.

The reason for this is largely due to the existence of the Seven Towers. The belief in the Lord of Radiance has greatly consolidated the legal authority of the Severton Council.

Moreover, the teachings of the Lord of Radiance have largely been revised by the Seven Towers. Opposing the teachings of the Lord of Radiance is almost equivalent to opposing the Seven Towers, the Sevington Council, and Netheril.

And Midsummer.

Although there is no stipulation in the teachings, this is the only day of the year when the sun appears in the sky for the longest time. This is undoubtedly the blessing of the Lord of Radiance.

I don't know when it started, this day became a carnival, even slaves don't need to work on this day.

The Midsummer Naxin of the Tower of Time seems to be a very serious assessment and examination, but in fact, in the past, it was a gift given by Savile to ordinary people.

Only with this gift can one have the opportunity to learn magic, and one has the opportunity to change one's destiny.

There is no doubt that sending people to an elf country like the Nethers on Midsummer Day is not acceptable to the vast majority of Nethers.

At least, from a politically correct point of view, it is difficult to be accepted by the public.

Not to mention the possibility of blasphemy, at least it proves that the relevant people are not considerate of their subordinates, and can even be said to be harsh.

When De Parker and Xia Duo talked about it just now, Xia Duo actually didn’t feel much in his heart. He is not a Netherian. For him, this day is not essentially different from any other day except that it is busier. the difference.

But in order to take care of De Parker's emotions and prevent the other party from alienating him, he still had to show anger, and even questioned Seid in front of De Parker.

Although he knew that De Parker might not care about these things, after all, for mages, Midsummer's Day was just like that. If you were happy, you could go out and have fun, but if you were not happy, you could just work hard in the mage tower.

In the past, the Tower of Time would have a holiday every Midsummer Festival, but not to mention the official mages, even if they were apprentices, there were still a lot of them who stayed in the mage tower and couldn't go out.

If someone is in the mage's tower, someone must cook, and it is impossible to do nothing.

But this attitude is still there.

Just like in Xia Duo's hometown, the Spring Festival is supposed to be a day for the whole family to reunite, but there are always people who continue to work actively or passively for various reasons.

This is the cost of running society.

But in terms of international reputation, that's not the case. If Cormanso is determined to do things from the perspective of political correctness this time, it will definitely be a big disaster.

For the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce~lightnovelpub.net~ maybe the difficulty of developing the elf market in the future will be overturned.

As for Xia Duo, once he is stained by Cormanthor, it is easy to hit his reputation in Netheril. Prestige and so on, usually do not see any use, but at critical moments, it is very fatal.

For example, Xia Duo just released "The Book of Agriculture" not long ago. He has certain expectations for the impact that the book of agriculture will have, both good and bad.

But if the prestige is damaged, the good is not necessarily better, but the bad is almost certainly worse.

There is also Brod, maybe Brod himself will not care about Comanthor's instigation, but the new subjects he applied to recruit from the Severton Council will not be so wise.

Once he heard that he was going to go to the Great Xia Territory, as long as he hesitated a little more, the number and speed of Xia Duo's final acquisition of the leader would be greatly reduced.

It really is "people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven!"
