Arad's crooked savior

"If you don't believe it, why don't you try divination? What's your future fortune?" Xiaoyu skillfully took out a bamboo tube, clanged it loudly a few times, and handed it to Kanina with a provocative look.

"Hmph, I, Kanina, have the right time, place, and right people. I don't believe that Celia can snatch a piece of meat from my mouth."

Kanina was full of confident and beautiful words, but when it came time to start drawing lots, she suddenly became hesitant again.

Tap your index finger back and forth on the bamboo stick to determine which one is the top one.

There are three brothers in Kanina's family. They are full of passion and adventurous spirit. In the past, the three brothers called themselves "hunters", but now they have a more widely known title...adventurers.

The day before yesterday, her second brother, a professional martial artist, came to see Kanina from out of town. Xiaoyu did a divination for him and said that your brother has been losing money recently and is an impulsive consumer.

Sure enough, in the evening of that day, the usually cheerful and sunny second brother, with a dark red face and an embarrassed face, asked his sister Kanina to borrow money to buy equipment.

When asked about the reason, the second brother immediately gritted his teeth angrily and said that the jar was full of garbage. If he encountered the nasty jar head again, he would be dragged to an alley and beaten up.

"I've decided, this is it!" Kanina quickly pulled out a bamboo stick, prayed silently to the gods for a long time, and then nervously handed the bamboo stick to Xiaoyu.

The purpose of Kanina Chamber of Commerce is "money". Everything is about money and everything is for money.

"Well, your fortune has been bumpy recently, but you may get rich auspiciously, or you may fall into ruin." Xiaoyu slightly raised her eyebrows in surprise, wondering whether the arrival of Saifu Po would have such a big impact.

Although she knew that Sai Fu's ability to attract money was terrifying, the business in Dark City was indeed dominated by Kanina. Except for Kelly's enhancement shop, few people could compare with this rich loli.

Kanina immediately snorted proudly after hearing this, picked up the fashionable small satchel on the chair, shook her finger, and said: "Sister Xiaoyu, aren't you a beautiful fortune teller? I'll leave it to you to tell the good and the bad. I have a business to discuss, so I’ll leave first.”

…………

The sun is shining overhead, spreading some warmth in the cold winter.

They had been to Dark City, the capital of the dark elves, not a thousand but eight hundred times, including the second floor of the manor where there was a space passage leading directly to Dark City.

So after leaving Hutton Mar on the EX Dornier, none of the girls had any strong expectations. They were quite lazy and simply fell asleep.

In addition, little Ravisi was left to Queen Skadi to fulfill her promise to "drink more water".

However, when EX Dornier approached the city that was originally deep underground but floated to the surface due to the huge energy of the Destruction Period, what they saw and heard completely overturned their original ideas.

In the distance, a majestic palace shines in the sun. Its smooth and white walls are magnificent, and its structure with few windows and doors unique to the dark elf style is like a fortress that suppresses the territory. It is majestic and indestructible.

It is located on the top of a huge mountain. In other words, in order to increase the cohesion of the group, the dark elves decided to build a brilliant and iconic building.

So they hollowed out the entire top of the mountain, and carved this immortal city out of a giant mountain that was integrated into one body. After several years of patient work, they carved it out.

Holy Spirit Lord Aragorn personally blessed the Dark City, and countless magicians set up hidden barriers, so that even if the Age of Destruction caused the earth to tremble and the entire city to break out of the ground, the palace would remain unharmed and completely undamaged.

The palace is the absolute core of Dark City and has a distinguished status.

And in the sky space hundreds of miles around it, there are still dozens of huge islands floating in the sky, like giant beasts with sky curtains surrounding the palace, with extraordinary momentum, projecting huge shadows on the earth.

One of the effects of the Age of Destruction on the Dark Elves was that some areas hidden deep in the ground were lifted up from the ground with an invisible but majestic force, and suspended hundreds of meters above the ground in mid-air.

At a glance, it feels like a floating island in the sky of Tabols.

However, after the dark elves found out, the power that levitated the huge islands was not "gravityless fragments", but a gray-black ore called "floating stone", which is currently only produced on those suspended islands.

Of course, pumice can also be classified as a type of "gravity-free material", and the two properties are the same.

Because of the rarity of pumice and its ability to be suspended in the air, the price of this mysterious ore has always been quite high in the market.

Unfortunately, the Dark Elf Senate has imposed a ban on all suspended islands. People without a permit are not allowed to approach the suspended islands.

Violators will be expelled from the city or even imprisoned.

And because the floating islands were once basically the active areas of the dark elves, many caves were opened, and there were many pieces of fine floating rough stones near the islands, like suspended stone rivers surrounding them.

So now people generally refer to Dark City and nearby suspended islands as "drifting caves".

Hedunmar has turned from prosperity to ruin, and Dark City has turned from being buried deep into glory. The prosperity and decline form a very sharp contrast to each other.

Queen Skadi has prepared adventurer's passes for them in advance, with which they can enter the Dark City at will. However, those mysterious suspended islands still require special passes issued by the dark elves.

As soon as he entered the city, Ye Lin noticed a different kind of aura. The dark elves guarding the city gate looked like hawks, scanning everyone's faces one by one, and repeatedly compared the pass information.

After finishing, the guard returned the pass and reminded lightly: "In the next few days, Dark City's alert will be raised to the highest level. If there is nothing important, just stay in the city. If you come here half a day later, Dark City will be The city is going to be closed down.”

Ye Lin heard from the dead captain that the peace envoy sent by the Delos Empire had just arrived in Dark City today to discuss important matters.

In the first year after the outbreak of the Age of Destruction, the Delos Empire hurriedly sent out envoys to visit various countries. In name, everyone was working together to overcome the difficulties, but in reality, they were trying to find out the reality of each country after the disaster.

At that time, Emperor Lyon had a profound plan. He first proposed to the Kingdom of Vanness to sign a peace treaty to stabilize external threats, and then quickly resume domestic production.

Although Queen Meia of the Kingdom knows the empire's intentions, she is afraid that the so-called peace treaty is just a delaying method in pursuit of 100% victory.

However, the Dark Elves were already weak, and it would take some time for them to adapt to the sudden appearance on the surface. Therefore, the first peace treaty was successfully signed without much effort.

Therefore, in the past seven years, everything has been peaceful and each has developed steadily.

The empire's vitality has been restored to 90%. On the Dark Elf side, Dark City has become a super metropolis, and the kingdom has also increased its overall strength.

Now the empire has sent a second peace mission. In name, the situation in the Arad continent has changed rapidly in the past seven years. The old peace treaty is no longer applicable and needs to be replaced with a new, more detailed treaty.

"The saying that a weak country has no diplomacy and a strong country has no friends is used to describe the current Vanness, and it basically fits the bill." Ye Lin explained.

Seven years ago, I said peace is peace. Seven years later, I said that the Old Testament does not apply. The tyranny and arrogance of the Delos Empire were vividly displayed, but ordinary people rarely realized the deeper meaning.

Even some people and dark elves who don't know what's going on hope that after the new treaty is signed, the two countries can completely establish friendship and live a stable life from now on.

The signing of the new treaty this time will definitely be accompanied by a huge storm, but we don’t know to what extent it will be affected.

But the top priority now is to find a place to settle down. Skadi said that there is a "revolutionary army" among the high-ranking officials of the Dark Elves. When they arrive in the Dark City, they can just find that person with her token.

That high-ranking official is named... Krent.

"Every time I see this name, I always have the urge to beat him up." Ye Lin twitched the corner of his mouth and suppressed his anger.
