Shaman from Afar

In the surprised expression of a group of elves, Loren kept a confident smile and sipped the honey wine brought by the elves. The sweet mellow made him unable to hold back his mouth.

Brewing mead has never been an easy task-using natural honey produced in ancient wood forests and mountain springs as raw materials, the endless aftertaste convinces Loren that the other party must have added herbs that he has never seen before. Originally full-bodied honey wine tastes fragrant.

Even the most common mead is brewed with a complicated process full of art and skills; neither can the taste be destroyed by excessive fermentation, nor can it be affected by excessively cold or overheated temperature. Whether or not to grasp the delicate balance between the two is an important part of testing a winemaker.

"You seem to like this?" Luca, who noticed Loren's expression, smiled enthusiastically: "When you leave, we will send you a bucket of this year's new brew as a witness of friendship."

"But before that, can you tell us your plan-how can you convince the Duke of Lothal to form an alliance with us?"

The elves around also raised their ears, staring attentively at the expression of the dark-haired wizard, as if afraid of missing something.

Lorean slowly lowered the glass and observed the appearance of the elves around him with the afterglow of his eyes. With the corner of his mouth raised, he showed a very sincere smile to them:

"I think you should be clear that in the past, the ruler of the Earl of Shenlinburg has always been the Sena family, and you have always been dealing with this family, and almost no contact with the ruler of the Principality of Lotel."

The elves turned their eyes to Lucca, and this seemingly old elf nodded, making the dark-haired wizard's eyes flash a little light.

Sure enough, this elf named Luca was the leader of this messenger group and the only one with the power to make decisions.

"However, due to the order of inheritance, the heir of the Duke has become the new count of Shenlinbao." At this point, Loren sighed deliberately: "Unfortunately, the Sena family cannot recognize the reality, even even Prepare to rebel against Lord Earl's rule. "

"You have seized the territories of their generations of life, but also hope that others obediently obey?"

The female elf Liya asked coldly, with a light and elegant tone but with a strong sarcasm: "It's really cheeky!"

"I'm very sorry, but Lord Duke also followed the rules of inheritance between human beings, but now the situation is that the Sena family is unwilling to accept it, and even intends to rebel!"

Loren, still smiling, shrugged his shoulders and made a very regretful gesture: "More importantly, the Seine family is no longer the earl of Shenlinburg. It can provide assistance to the elves and even reach an alliance. Only the prince ’s The Frid family! "

"Right now, if you go to the Sena family, they will definitely promise you a bunch of conditions, maybe even richer than the Duke opened; but at the same time, they will also ask you to help them recapture the Deep Forest!"

"In this case, why don't we go to the Sena family?"

"Because if that is the case, you will be the enemy of the whole Principality of Lotel." Sighing, Loren explained with a bitter smile and a distrustful female elf: "There is no iron ore in Shenlinbao, if you want assistance, , Can only find a way from the hands of Duke Lothal. "

"So, what is your suggestion?" Lucca asked.

"I just said that the Sena family now intends to rebel, but Lord Earl does not have enough evidence to arrest them, so ..."

With a slight smile, Loren dragged his hands: "This will be your chance. If the Elves of the Ancient Wood Forest stand firm next to the earl in the next Senna family rebellion, they can definitely win Foley Duke of Germany is grateful. "

"Even if it is just to pay off this relationship, the Duke will give you a batch of supplies as a gift of gratitude-and more importantly, the current Count of Shenlinbao is still the heir of the Duke, that means ..."

"When he becomes the lord of the Duke of Lothal, will he form an alliance with us ?!" Luca immediately grabbed the point.

"Yes!" The dark-haired wizard replied succinctly: "The most important thing is that now there are not many troops around the count. Your support will be important to the count, and he will be very grateful to you!"

"Instead of counting on others' charity, it is better to take the initiative to fight for more return in exchange for mutually beneficial cooperation, not to mention that the price is almost minimal."

With a tempting tone, Loren deliberately did not give them more time to think, and continued to say: "And in less than ten days, the army of the Duke of Lothal will arrive in Deep Limburg, when the earl will You will no longer need your help-this is the only chance! "

This soundingly tempting condition really moved the elves. Lucca fell silent, and the remaining elves were whispering and whispering.

From their expressions, Loren was convinced that he was only half a step away from success ... Well, he had to work harder and give them confidence.

"Say so much, don't you just want us to fight for your count?"

Sneered at the ill-feeling female elf from Loren and snatched up in front of Luca: "I want you to see that you intend to use us from the beginning, right?"

"Liya-!"

"Since a hundred years ago, the elves and humans have never interfered with each other!" The female elf confronted Luca without any retreat: "This is what you told us, the word-of-mouth ancestry. Why break this tradition and interfere Fighting for power among humans ?! "

"Because the times ... are different."

Slowly standing up, Loren stopped the female elf, and Loren gazed sincerely at the emerald-like eyes: "In the past, humans and elves might really not interfere with each other, and live in accordance with their own customs. But times have changed, and the world is not what it was a hundred years ago. "

"The elves need iron ore and linen, well-trained war horses and livestock; while humans need the elves to defend ancient wood forests and protect farms and small towns from ogres. Both parties can only survive together for mutual benefit. ! "

This more honest statement is more acceptable to Luca than the saying that the pie has just fallen from the sky ~ www.novelmtl.com ~. In fact, the only person Loren really wants to convince is Luca, who has the power to make decisions.

After a whispering discussion, Luca finally smiled and walked back to Loren: "Lord Loren, Turin, we are willing to accept your terms."

"If you can really persuade the Earl of Shenlinbao, the elves of the ancient wood forest are willing to fight for him and protect him and his castle." Speaking of this, Luca's words turned:

"But ... it is only to protect his safety. We are not mercenaries. If the count is going to destroy the Sena family, please forgive us for not interfering."

Even at the point of asking for people, these elves are still reluctant to get too much contact with human disputes. But it didn't matter to Loren, nor did he expect the elves to do this.

Although the female elf named Liya was still opposed, she was harmless.

"Will wait tonight, Lord Earl's Guard Knight will lead you to the Deep Forest." Loren, who got up, took the initiative to extend his right hand: "I am looking forward to the elves from the ancient wood forest fighting alongside us Day. "

"Wait until Shenlinbao restores peace, and you and the count should not forget your promises." Luca took Loren's hand: "If the ogre defeated us, the next one is Shenlinbao."

"And this time the invasion of ogres far exceeds any time in the past, no matter how many knights you have, how many strong castles you have, it is impossible to resist them!"

"I understand." Loren nodded deeply, "I have seen it with my own eyes."
