Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2764 Explanation of the True King’s Defilement
In this case, either Erlan is extremely confident in this operation, or the demon has been taken care of, and now it is just a formality.

When Xia Duo was in his hometown, he could occasionally hear someone being taken away from a meeting. But in fact, was that person really found guilty before the meeting and then arrested temporarily?
Obviously impossible.

Xia Duo was not sure whether Ye Erlan was overconfident or had already gone through the process. He just hoped that nothing unexpected would happen.

After all, the demon descendants have now become the common enemy of all intelligent creatures in the main plane.

……

"Parris Metril was reduced to a lackey of the devil by his country and his tribe, but——

"After investigation, we found that Paris and his associates are not the only ones in Yeerlan who have been infiltrated by demons. There are also demons who have been hiding deeper and longer, even in Taivi Mansa, right next to us!"

When Helion said the last sentence, he had already cast his sharp eyes in one direction in the temple. Shado looked in that direction, and Philipfa still had the mysterious smile on his face.

Of course, Philifar was not the traitor Helion said, but the moon elf sitting in a seat next to Philifar. At this moment, the elf's face was full of shock and confusion, as if he had been greatly wronged.

"Lagdus, do you have anything else to say? I'll give you a chance to defend yourself!"

Following Helion's identification, the other elves around Ragdus quickly stood up and stepped aside, taking a defensive posture.

It was not until this moment that Shado discovered that the moon elf named Ragdus was not actually in the same space as the other people in the Starry Temple, but was restrained to an independent and restricted space.

Otherwise, he really couldn't understand why the other party still stayed where he was. Could he still hope to win the sympathy of the parliament and turn around?

It's impossible to think about it. King Helian Mian dared to arrest an important member of a high-ranking family during the grand banquet. He must have communicated with the council in advance.

But all this was hidden from Ragdus' family. If Sha Duo were the other party, he would not sit still and wait to die, regardless of whether he was wronged or not.

So when did it take place?
In fact, Shado has been paying attention to the status of the magic network in the Temple of Stars. After all, he does not want to be accidentally injured by Ye Erlan's arrest. In addition, if there is a chance, he must seize Ambassador Fermae and other Nese people present at the critical moment. .

Although Erlan will try his best to protect him, it is safer to have him on hand.

But now, just under his nose, he quietly completed the control of Ragdus. This method is really terrifying!
Xia Duo believed that if he did not consider bloodline powers, he would be completely unable to resist. However, bloodline powers are not omnipotent. If you can succeed once, you may not be able to succeed every time.

Therefore, he was very curious about what method Ye Erlan used. At this moment, his curiosity even exceeded his thoughts about investigating the secret lock of Taivi Mansa.

……

For various reasons, King Helian gave Ragdus the opportunity to defend himself, but Ragdus did not appreciate it at all. After the initial shock and confusion, he quickly calmed down and became gloomy. Face, looking at the other upper-ranking family members who were looking at him with wary expressions, he said coldly:
“From the day I insisted on opposing Helion’s reforms, I had long known that this day would come, but I didn’t expect that this day would come so quickly.

"But don't feel lucky. Helion's ambition has long been revealed. He wants to be the only true king of Ellan, rather than a false king bound by the mage leader and parliament.

"Just wait and see, my fate now will be your fate in the future!" After saying that, Ragdus stopped talking, and his words also caused a commotion among other upper-ranking family members, not just those in the Starry Temple, And in the square outside, it can be said that those present tonight are the entire ruling class of Yeerland.

They may not care about surrendering to a nominal king, but they absolutely resist the emergence of a real king in Yeerlan who controls everything.

This is not only due to the instinct of being sensitive to one's own power, but also the vigilance that the only true king may lead Yeerlan into the fate of ancient Arivanda.

Speaking of which, Erlan, Sluvende, and Cormanthor all claimed to have inherited the orthodoxy of Arifandar. The ancient Arifandar inherited by Sruvinder began to conquer the border areas and the most important civilians before the Great Cause.

The Sluvende elves are the descendants of the original civilians of Arivandar.

Erlan inherited the core territory of Arivandar, while Cormanthor inherited the powerful people of Arifandar after his escape.

Although the three parties all regard themselves as orthodox, they do so more to demonstrate their legal origins than to truly follow the old path of Arivanda.

The so-called "Erevanda's old path" started with centralization of power, and then went on to an unprecedented rise in royal power, leading to the emergence of the so-called "only true king who rules the elven world".

The latter is also one of the official titles of the crowned king of Cormanthor. It is the prophecy that prompted the trial of the divine sword and the birth of Cormanthor. However, these are more of the domestic sayings of Cormanthor, and it is almost impossible to get Cormanthor. Say it somewhere else.

This shows how sensitive the statement "the only true king" is.

If King Helian really wants to follow the path of the only true king, not to mention the attitude of other countries outside of Yeerlan, the country of Yeerlan alone will immediately turn upside down.

The reason why Helion's followers follow Helion is not because they want to push Helion to a transcendent status that they can never reach, but more because they want to strengthen themselves in the process of maintaining Helion. family.

In the elf world, family interests often come before national interests. After all, there are too many families whose history is much longer than the country they live in!
Under such circumstances, how can we make an ancient family that may have been accustomed to the ups and downs of the country put the country's interests first?

Therefore, when Ragdus mentioned Crown King Helian's desire to become the only true king, other upper-ranking family members almost unanimously ignored the suspicion of demons in him and turned their suspicious eyes to Crown King Helian. .

Helion was well prepared for this, "Such despicable tricks cannot destroy the tradition of co-governance among the upper-ranking Yeerlan families, nor can they undermine the progress of centralization of power.

"Lagdus, I just gave you the opportunity to defend yourself but you didn't cherish it, so now let everyone witness the true face of Lagdus!"

Having said this, Helion raised his right hand slightly, and the next moment the middle space originally used for banquet performances was suddenly shrouded in illusion.

Everyone present could clearly identify the scene where the vision was displayed, as a city district in Taivi Mansa, or rather as one of the giant oak trees in which Tevi Mansa was located.

At this time, the elf who already knew more about the inside story took the initiative to introduce, "It's the city of Samalandis, where the Emerald Star Courtyard is!"

Ragdus was born into the Green Star family, and the Green Star courtyard is the core residence of the Green Star family in Tevi Mansa.
