Chapter 1317 Cormanthor Investigator Visits in Person
Savile Town.

After Xia Duo came to the town, he didn't go to see the Comanthor investigator immediately. He planned to meet with Master Warren first to see if he could get some new information from the other party.

The Tower of Time portal is some distance away from the town hall, and the foreign affairs mage's permanent office in the trade area is also some distance away from the town hall, but slightly further than the teleportation gate.

With Xia Duo deliberately slowing down, when he arrived at the town hall, Master Warren was already waiting at the gate of the town hall. Together with him were the mayor of Sain, and the chief business officer of Savile Territory Dai rick.

Xia Duo didn't want to make this matter too much, especially Derrick. Although he just used him in Severton a few days ago, what are you going to do now? Are you not afraid of getting killed in a fight?

"Mayor Thain, Derrick, I have nothing to do with you here, just do what you have to do, or leave the town hall temporarily and go to the temple to take refuge. There may be danger here in a while."

Upon hearing this, Thain's expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly asked, "My lord, do you want to send someone to inform Ke Yaen?"

"No need, that elf investigator is a senior mage, equivalent to a human archmage. Ordinary soldiers can hardly play any role, so don't make unnecessary sacrifices."

Xia Duo directly rejected Thain's suggestion. In fact, he didn't think that the other party would have the courage to make troubles in Netheril. After all, the Northland Alliance has not yet been formally established, and there are still variables.

Originally, Ilfaran and Netheril were dissatisfied with putting the signing place and the future headquarters of the alliance in Evereska. At this time, if Comanthor does something else, it will definitely be in the final negotiation suffer.

And those who make trouble will naturally not be able to please.

Although Xia Duo was almost certain that the Cormanthor investigator must have come with bad intentions, it was not limited to the imminent armed conflict. It should be to force the Savile Lord to make some concessions in some respects through some fair reason.

After sending Thain and Derrick away, Xia Duo called Warren into the town hall, sat down in an office at random, and then began to ask in detail:
"When did the Comanso investigator come to Savile Territory? Did he show up on his own initiative? Or did you miss a loophole and be discovered by you?"

"Sorry, my lord, we can't be sure exactly when that elf came to Savile Territory. Even her existence is due to the notification from the Silver Leaf Family."

"Her? That investigator is a woman?"

"Yes. Just at noon today, I suddenly received a notice from the Silverleaf family, saying that Comanthor had sent an investigator over to investigate the truth behind the death of the elven refugee in Savile Town, and hinted that the other party might have an extraordinary origin. "

"In other words, all the information you know comes from the Silverleaf family? And you haven't met that Comanso investigator yourself?"

"Yes." Warren again gave an affirmative answer.

Xia Duo continued to inquire and found out that the Comanso investigator had been staying at Mrs. Patty's manor in the north of Savile Town since his appearance until now, which is also the temporary residence of the Silver Leaf Family in Savile Territory.

He didn't even take the initiative to contact Savile's side.

If it wasn't for the notice from the Yinye family, including Xia Duo and Niya, they might still be kept in the dark!
"Could it be that the other party really came to investigate the death of the elf refugees?" Xia Duo couldn't help doubting his previous judgment.

If you really have such a purpose for the Savile leader, then you should contact the Savile leader as soon as possible, instead of staying with the Silverleaf family.

But if the other party really came to investigate the death of the elven refugees back then, they shouldn't have stayed with the Silverleaf family. Even if they didn't need the help of humans, they should at least go to the scene of the original crime, even in the whole world. Go around Savile Town.

Or, is this the arrogance of elves?
Regardless of the purpose, you human beings must come to visit first, and then I will reluctantly inform you what you need to do!
Based on Xia Duo's understanding of elves, they can really do this kind of thing!
Whether they want to target you or ask you for help, those long ears can speak confidently and as a matter of course, as if they just speak, it is a gift to human beings.

What a nasty attitude!
Of course, for the elves who don't understand humans, their attitude may not be so bad, it's more out of the general alienation of strange cultures and races, and in the eyes of humans, it's almost arrogant.

For those elves who understand humans, the arrogant posture is more of a deliberate suppression strategy.

Even, some elves behaved more arrogantly when they encountered powerful humans. On the one hand, they knew the bottom line of the dignity of the strong human beings. recognition.

The so-called "weak countries have no diplomacy", to a certain extent, this is what it is.

Even Ilfaran, an ally of Netheril, seems to be very close to humans, but only they know what they think in their hearts.

Xia Duo is temporarily powerless to change this situation, but he firmly believes that as long as he is given time, the future elves will eventually face up to humans, and even look up to humans.

But now, he can only take the initiative to meet the Comanso investigator. No matter what purpose the other party has in mind, he will definitely not let the other party succeed easily.

……

North District of Savile Town.

Xia Duo was no stranger to Mrs. Patty's manor, but in his perception, he hadn't been here for many years, which made him feel somewhat space-time disordered.

And Mrs. Patty and the head of the Silver Leaf family, Orepus, went out to welcome them in person, which also somewhat relieved the unhappiness in his heart of visiting outsiders in his own territory.

Mrs. Patty left quickly after seeing her, but the patriarch Oripus stayed and led Xiaduo personally. Of course, his main purpose of doing this was to introduce the Cormanthor investigator to Xiaduo——

"Lord Xia Duo, the investigator claimed to be entrusted by the Yuelu Qiangwei family to investigate the truth about the death of an old man's son."

"Really?" Xia Duo was noncommittal about this, and he already had his own judgment on the Comanso investigator who was about to meet.

In this regard, Orepus smiled awkwardly, "Of course, that was just an excuse from the other party. Before you came, Lord Xiaduo, I had already contacted the Yuelu Qiangwei family. They didn't know about this commission, but -"

"But what?" Xia Duo asked immediately.

"However, I saw the unique imprint of the Lunsita family on that investigator—that is, the [Moon Crown] family that you humans are familiar with."
