Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1788

"for example?"

It was Horn who spoke out. He had a good personal relationship with Badigal in the early years, but later he hooked up with two of Badigal's students, and the relationship with Badigal was regarded as "falling in love and killing each other".

Speaking out at this moment, it might be that there is no idea of ​​​​releasing the atmosphere for Badigal.

Badigal glanced at Horn, and continued: "Do you still remember the large mithril bonanza discovered in Kiran Tower 200 years ago? It was leaked to Comanthor by this Limox, and then Comanthor thought I informed Ye Erlan of the method, and you will know what happened afterwards."

"What? He leaked the Ubain Mine to Comanthor?! After Lord Eleanor reported it, Zilan Tower immediately took action and did enough secrecy work, but it was defeated by a group of dwarves unexpectedly. Just how did he do it?"

The Ubain Mine can be regarded as the largest mithril mine in Netheril, and it is also a rich mine, which is associated with silver mines and produces various five-color gemstones.

But the problem is that in the past, there was a 700-year Mithril agreement between Netheril, Danzo, and Yeerlan.

The main content is that Danzo and Yeerlan provide Mithril assistance to Netheril, and the condition is that Mithril mines discovered in Netheril will be sold to the other two countries in the agreement in the future.

At the earliest time, Netheril did not have Mithril mines, and did not know how to refine Mithril. At the same time, the development of magic also urgently needed Mithril. This agreement can be said to be very beneficial to Netheril.

At least at the time, it seemed that Netheril was poor and useless, and even magic had to be taught by others. Wouldn't it be silly not to accept such good conditions?

However, when the time stretched to 700 years, Netheril first gave up elf magic, and later discovered mithril mines continuously, and embarked on the road of independence.

Later, the Seven Towers mastered the mithril extraction technology, and this agreement became a heavy shackle that Netheril couldn't shake off.

For the past 200 years, Netheril has been negotiating with Danzo and Yeerlan to discuss renegotiating the Mithril Agreement of the Three Kingdoms. Danzo did not set up too many obstacles, but Yeerlan was still unwilling to let go.

If it weren't for the drow wars in the past few years, the elves were in a state of panic, and Danzo, who was facing the drow, needed Netheril's assistance urgently. I am afraid that there is no hope of changing the agreement now!
Thinking of how many mines, including Ubein, had been plundered by Danzo and Yeerlan for nearly 500 years, Horn couldn't help complaining to the predecessors who led the signing of the agreement back then, why were they so unconfident in their own development?
Hearing Badigal mention that the Ubein Mine might have been leaked to Comanthor by Limox again, Horn couldn't help but wonder if the other mines were also leaked by the dwarves?
After all, in the mines all over Netheril, dwarf miners are used the most, and those little things are born to be good at doing these jobs.

To this, Badigal’s answer was——

"Limox is a talented illusionist. Hundreds of years ago, in addition to instigating various resistance actions, what he did most was to cooperate with Mage Cormanthor to find the gathering places of dwarves.

"I think he may have visited all the mines with dwarf slaves in Nether! Is it a Mithril mine? Can't you tell if you go to the mine?"

"It turned out to be so!"

Even as an enemy, Horn couldn't help but be shocked by the firm will of the opponent. The lifespan of a dwarf is almost four to five hundred years, and if it is a slave, it can live at least two to three hundred years.

If what Badigal said wasn't misled by the Yeerlan elf, then this Limox can be said to have been working for the cause of racial liberation all his life.

Horn didn't think that the only mission of the dwarf was to be a slave to the Nethers. Everything was due to his strength, but he was inevitably touched when he heard such a deed.

Reminiscent of Netheril's past entanglements with the elven kingdoms, Horne once again strengthened his mind that if he falls behind, he will be enslaved.

Maybe it is physical, maybe it is spiritual, the influence of the strong is everywhere.

……

After that, Badigal mentioned several "big events" that Limox participated in, and finally mentioned the scroll theft that year:

"In Limox's memory, his task was to bring the three high-ranking mages of Comanthor into the Arcane Union, and provide camouflage during the period when the three high-level mages cracked the protection. As for the three high-level mages identity--"

Speaking of this, Badigal hesitated, "In Limox's memory, the images of the three high-ranking mages are only blank, and all kinds of perceptual information have been deliberately erased.

"The only thing is that when I was interrogating him, he mentioned that he had met a strange elf mage in Cormanthor that he felt familiar with."

"Who is it?" Horn asked hurriedly.

"It's Galanod, the master of one of the Comanzo's three divine swords [Sword of Skill]."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone immediately fell into silence. Although they had guessed earlier, getting such a result at this time still made everyone feel heavy.

Having been with Comanthor for so long, everyone in the Seven Towers naturally understood that behind Galanod was the crowned king of Elithel who had been in power for nearly a thousand years.

If the theft of the scroll was led by King Elithel alone, then it would be more difficult to investigate later than they imagined.

"Could it be that this dwarf is lying and deliberately leading us in the direction of suspicion?"

"Harris, your words—and Horn, don't you suspect that I don't even have the ability to distinguish lies?"

Saying that, Badigal pointed to the motionless dwarf Limox in the secret room, "He's still alive, and he's here. If you don't believe me, you can bring him back for interrogation and inspection."

"It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that we need more concrete evidence for this kind of thing."

"Do you want evidence? Look at that elf, the grandson of Elisel, the nephew of Galanod, the most beautiful little prince of Sel in Comanthor."

"It turned out to be him?!"

Compared with the dwarf, the identity of the elf in front of them shocked everyone in the Seven Towers. Before that, they only heard that Badigal mentioned that he had brought back a prince Cormanthor who was carrying a stolen Nether scroll.

But there are also many princes of Cormanthor, not to mention how many sons Elisel gave birth to in the millennium, sons and sons, this is also a prince.

If you just captured a prince who is not valued, as long as you do it cleanly, it's fine, but if it's Prince Serre who is highly valued, then——

Even if Netheril is right about this matter, it may be difficult to end it.

The faces of the people in the Seven Towers were uncertain. It is true that they made the decision to take back the Nether scroll regardless of the other party's identity, but they did not know that the other party's identity was so special before.

How will this matter end?
