Lord of Lowland

Chapter 137 Negotiations
Cecil came to the hall of Bone Tooth City, and Cartwright was already sitting in the hall waiting for him leisurely, obviously he was still very interested in visiting the human site.Cecil saw this young and strong orc. Although this orc was definitely known as a beautiful man in his own race, Cecil definitely didn't think so. His aesthetics couldn't tell which orc was the most beautiful. man.

"Hello, dear Baron Augustine. My name is Cartwright, and I am here to visit on the orders of Lord Salaman." Cartwright bowed deeply to Cecil gracefully.

Cecil was a little surprised, although saluting himself with the huge orc body was somewhat nondescript.But it is surprising that an orc should study human etiquette.What was even more surprising was that he directly called out his own name. He had just arrived, and the orcs entrenched here not only sent an army to attack, but also had a clear picture of his own information, which is really not to be underestimated.

Cecil returned the gift in surprise, and asked the other party to sit down again.

"First of all, I would like to apologize for the stupid attack on the city lord by that fellow Alanx, but he has already paid the price of his life for this, please forgive him for what he did, and return his body Give us a burial." Carter was not polite and told the purpose of his visit straight to the point.

Cecil was lost in thought. Alanx should be the dead swordsman. Needless to say, burying the remains is nonsense. Orcs have never had the habit of burying their ancestors like humans. It is natural for orcs to eat the strong. Habit.What are they going to do with the corpse now?Cecil had reason to believe that their need for corpses must have something to do with the bottle of devil's blood that Alenkers drank at the end.

The collusion between some orcs and demons has been a long-standing habit for thousands of years. Orcs sacrifice to demons, and demons give blood to orcs.These orcs even betrayed their god Gruumsh in order to gain the demon's temporary power.Not only is it an enemy of mankind, but it is also an enemy of the Orc Empire. Gruumsh's ground spokesperson, the Emperor Horqin of the Orc Empire, will never allow this to happen again.

"The sword master who was killed may have something to do with the devil, so its body cannot be sent back to you for the time being." Cecil flatly refused this request.

Cartwright didn't get too entangled with this question, and immediately changed the subject: "In this case, then the corpse will be handed over to Baron Augustine, and I believe the baron will not use him to collude with the devil. The main purpose of coming here is to invite the baron to meet the shaman of our tribe in Artis Forest to discuss the peace talks between everyone.

"Peace talks? You have entered the border of our country, invaded the Artis woodland, and attacked our residents to kill everywhere. Now you want to make peace talks with me? Don't you think you are a little ridiculous? What you want to do is not to talk to us, but It is to immediately exit Artis Forest and return to your orc empire. If this is the case, we can let the past go, even if it is the body of the swordsman, I can consider returning it to you." Of course Cecil will not go back to the peace talks, his own When it comes to safety, no one knows whether other people's territory can be guaranteed, not to mention that I have no right and don't want to negotiate peace with them.So he rejected Cartwright without hesitation.

Cartwright said with a smile: "Lord Augustine's attitude is admirable, but do you want to be a little more realistic?"

"What? Am I unrealistic?" Cecil asked quietly.

"As far as I know, there are no more than a dozen of you who came to Bone Tooth City this time, and there are only two strong people above the holy rank. Although I don't know how you defeated Alanx, if we If you attack with all your strength, you, the baron, will probably die within a day of arriving at the station. Our tribe in Artis Forest has at least 10 orc adult warriors. Our shaman is a legendary powerhouse. There are also at least five saint-level powerhouses, all of whom have survived hundreds of battles with the Beastman Empire, and they are extremely powerful, and if this is a head-to-head confrontation, you are definitely no match." Cartwright said calmly, without any panic.

Cecil was also shocked when he heard this, but he would never be so intimidated by the other party: "Do you know what the consequences of attacking the City Lord's Mansion will be? You actually sent someone to notify the reinforcements of the Blood Eagle Knights, Are you going to bear the wrath of that knight order? Also, if you really have the ability to take down the City Lord's Mansion so easily, why did you send you to us to seek peace?"

Cartwright smiled and said: "We have been here in Artis Woods for more than a day. If the Blood Eagle Knights really want to expel us, we don't have to wait for you to ask for help. Your human coalition has just experienced the battle of Devil's Gate. We also know a thing or two about the loss of the Eagle Knights. The Knights must not be willing to get involved in this troubled water now, after all, what he has to deal with is a tribe of orcs, and he himself is not so sure."

"As for why we came to peace talks, I admit that we really don't want to go to war, because the tribe is indeed extremely weak now, and we don't want to add new casualties at all. But if you think that we are afraid of you because of this, then you are very wrong Wrong." Cartwright spoke very firmly, as if he was holding a wisdom pearl.

Cecil had to admit that the other party had fully grasped his pain points. The other party's analysis was reasonable. Compared with the other party's entire tribe, his own strength was still too far behind. If he confronted head-on, he would definitely lose the most.But he definitely wouldn’t agree to go to Artis Forest to negotiate with the orcs because of this, not to mention that it would be a serious crime for him to spread this kind of thing to the kingdom. Peace talks.That was tantamount to allowing the orcs to continue to live in Attis Woodland, and then come out from time to time to slaughter the people under his rule. How could Cecil endure this?
"If you think that you can force me to submit, then you are wrong. You can go back and let your entire tribe kill you. When it comes to book power, it is naturally your possession, but I have experienced it many times. The battle, I know that the battle is not as simple as you think on the surface, otherwise it would be me and not this Elenkes who died now, right? So if you really want to fight, things may not be as you think. I wish." Cecil rejected Cartlade firmly.
