Arcane Lord

"If that's the case, why are you still looking for me? Why do you think Netheril would agree to such a proposal?" Shado asked in a deep voice.

"It's not what I think, but the general trend. Although there are various risks for Netheril to further open up, the benefits are also huge. It is impossible for the seven towers to miss this opportunity."

After speaking, Hildarana seemed to think that it was not enough, and added, "I have received reliable news that the elf intruder who appeared in Severndon not long ago was instructed by Il Farang. In this case, what do you call Your allies are simply unreliable, and once the opening is further opened, maybe Il Farang will be the first to harvest, your good ally!"

"Needless to say those words to sow discord, there is still no conclusion about who sent the intruder. Even if it is Il Farang, it may just be a misunderstanding. As long as Cormanthor's hostility to Netheril remains unchanged, the The friendship between Riel and Cormanthor is unbreakable."

That being said, Xardo is actually not too sure. At least in the recent magic restriction treaty, Il Farang does not seem to show the attitude that an ally should have.

One thing Hildarana might be right about, though, is that the Seven Towers are indeed ambitious, and even knowing that Il Faron is unreliable, she is likely to agree to open up further.

And if you include [Misera], which has not yet been disclosed, the seven towers may be much more courageous than Hildarana imagined!

Could it be that the floating city was built in response to the further opening of trade by the countries of the Northern Alliance?

Xia Duo had to make such a guess.

On the one hand, the floating city shows its powerful strength, and on the other hand, it can also turn the originally long and undefended border into a mobile strategic fortress.

Even if the ground is completely occupied by elves, as long as the floating city does not fall, Netheril will always exist.

Thinking about it this way, Xia Duo felt that it was necessary to further open up, but the specific opening time needed to be carefully planned.

After thinking about it, Shado felt that he could agree to Hildarana's request. For now, even if the further opening up would be more beneficial than detrimental to Netheril, he didn't have to agree so readily.

Especially after experiencing such a suffocating thing in the Demon Limiting Treaty, if the promise is too straightforward, it will inevitably make the elves gain an inch.

Want to open up? Okay, let's talk about a wave of benefits first!

Specific to the present, in fact, whether or not to lobby the Seven Pagodas, eat this wave of benefits first!

Thinking like this, Shado became more and more trusting in Il Farang. Seeing this, Hildarana frowned again and again, "I thought Lord Shado was very intelligent, but I didn't expect to be so short-sighted."

The so-called "his enemy, my hero", the elf's ridicule will not hurt Xia Duo, he directly ignored the other party's words, but also did not interrupt the communication.

He believed that Hildarana could understand what he meant, and there were not enough tricks for the elves to refuse and welcome?

"Lord Shado, you have to be clear. What I said is beneficial to both of you and me. As a collaborator, should this kind of thing be calculated?"

"No, Lady Hildarana, you are wrong!"

Shado shook his head, "What you said is good for Netheril, but it's not necessarily good for me, or it's not directly good for me, it's the Seven Towers who should think about it, not me. But you didn't look for the Seven Towers, but me, and I must have your consideration, so isn't it right for me to ask for some deserved remuneration for this?"

At this time, Xia Duo is like a greedy person. Of course, the image of human beings in the eyes of elves is almost always like this - greedy, cunning, irritable, violent, Xia Duo doesn't care about being a little worse.

He believed that no matter which other human beings Hildalana finds capable of lobbying the Seven Towers, they will pay a certain price.

And at this time, he didn't mean to refuse severely, and he didn't break the foundation of cooperation. The so-called "buying and selling can't be benevolence and righteousness", although there is no such proverb in the magical world, there are words with similar meaning.

Hildarana thought about it again and again and put forward her own conditions: "If you can guarantee that the people of the Seven Towers will definitely deny the relevant proposal, then whether it is a secret scroll of spells, a magic book, or mithril or gold, I can give it to you. ."

"No, no, Ms. Hildarana, a good mage will always leave a way out for himself. You should know that I can't give you such a guarantee."

Although Xia Duo was moved for a moment, especially when he was in urgent need of a large amount of magic materials to build a floating city, he still refused through gritted teeth.

This kind of guarantee of not leaving behind, but also for a elf, he is really afraid that the other party will go back and find Qita to block his way.

"Since this is the case, then I can only use a piece of news that you are interested in in exchange for your chance to come forward!"

"What news?" Shado asked.

"Are you interested in the news about the Moon Shadow Family?" Hildarana suddenly smiled, smiling beautifully, but there was a bit of sadness and anger hidden in this smile.

It was because Shado asked her about the Moon Shadow Family last time that she asked Brin to investigate, and Brin died.

Although she knew that Brin's death had little to do with Shado, as long as she thought about it, Hildarana couldn't help but feel resentful.

Since you're interested in the Moon Shadow Family, be a little more interested and investigate it yourself!

At this moment, Hildarana seemed to have deliberately forgotten the possibility that Shado might be the son of destiny of the elf. If the other party hadn't been in Netheril, she would have had the urge to take action on the spot.

It is true to ask the other party to lobby, but it is also true to try to lure the other party with the news of the Moon Shadow family. No matter what happens, Hilda Lanna is not at a loss.

In fact, as Hildarana expected, Shado was indeed interested in the news of the Moon Shadow Family.

Whether it was the Mithril mine that was not allowed to be spied on in the agreement, or the other party's practice of completely erasing the existence of the Green Vine Tribe (including the traces in other people's memories), Xia Duo had a strong interest in that family.

I mentioned it casually when I communicated with Hildarana before, but I didn't expect it to come to fruition now.

After thinking about it, Shado decided to agree to the other party's conditions, "Tell me everything you know, and then I will go to Severnton to meet the Seven Towers Master and lobby in person."

"Everything is impossible. The information about the Yueying family also contains Ye Erlan's secrets. I can only tell you what I can tell you, but I can guarantee that you will never regret it after listening to it."
