A strange world

Chapter 1116 Section 38. Business is not as important as alliance

In the evening, Irelanze appeared after Ariana left, pestering Annan to watch the newly filmed magic video.

"Let the Magic Fly?"

"The one where you played the vampire lord."

"Dracula? Haven't you seen it yet?"

"No."

Irelanze's subsequent words surprised Annan that the Elf King's Court had only introduced three magic videos: "The Fall of the Mage Tower", "300 Warriors of Liberty City", and "Annan Porter and the Philosopher's Stone".

"What about "The Redemption of Betar" and "The Pursuit of Happyness"?"

Irelanze told Annan that except for "The Redemption of Betar" which was originally intended to be introduced to the Verdant City, it was found that the protagonist was an orc and the elves became prisoners when watching the movie outside the court, so it was banned from being spread and never spread to the Verdant City... The other two were for the same reason. Orcs and vampires were not accepted by them as the protagonists.

"Doesn't the Elven Court know that these are all stories about happiness and beauty?"

"They find it hard to accept the ugly faces of orcs appearing in front of them..." Irelanze's answer was extremely superficial.

Even if Annan was just adapting it, at this moment he was somewhat angry about the prejudice against his work.

"Irelan...son, go back first, I have something to do."

Annan was not in a hurry to visit other delegations for the time being. He had to do something more important - and he was the future ally of the Elven Court, shouldn't they come to visit him?

"I'll go with you."

Annan shook his head: "Some people in the Verdant City may not like what I'm going to do. I'm not an elf, but a potential ally of yours. They dare not do anything to me, but I'm worried that they will vent their anger on me."

"Are you going to sneak out?"

"No, just show a magic video for the Verdant City for free."

...

Later, Annan climbed down the tree house.

Waving to the silhouette behind the window of the tree house next door, Annan walked outside where Ariana didn't take him during the day.

"Guest, please stay here. The celebration has not started yet, so you can't go out for the time being."

A team of elf guards at the intersection blocked Annan.

"I'm not going out. I just want to ask if I can stay here?" Annan pointed at his feet and asked.

"This is your wish." The elf captain was neither humble nor arrogant.

"That's good."

Annan walked to the grass on the side, first took out a picnic blanket from the magic ring and spread it on the lawn, then knelt down on the side, and then took out baskets of food, water cups, artificial flower pots...

While arranging them, he said to the elf guards who showed a trace of curiosity: "Do you know me?"

No one answered, so Annan muttered to himself:

"Let me introduce myself. I am Annan Reeves, the Lord of Free City. Those who know me may have seen the magic video or heard about the alliance. It doesn't matter if you don't know me."

Annan finally took out three eternal magic stones and rubbed his chin in embarrassment. Let's start with... Betar who broke out of the cage.

He turned the activated magic stone upside down and placed it on the blanket.

"Because you will know me soon."

Gorgeous colors shot out from the magic stone, presenting a giant magic image a hundred meters above the tree house.

Annan raised his head with the elf guards and looked at the magic image lit up under the flickering fluorescent veins of the world tree.

Betal is just an ordinary northern city-state, which has long been lost to the rat tide. But because of coincidence, it will remain in the hearts of many people forever and will become the memory of generations.

Annan did this not to vent his anger, nor was it superficial to rely on free screenings to break the deadlock and attract people.

But he wanted to push the young and strong faction and let them stand firmly with him.

As for whether the old faction would be unhappy...so what?

Being forced to train, being thrown into the tree house and forbidden to move...whether it was arrogance or warning, it meant that the royal court did not care about his "little ally".

Value is not waited for, but fought for.

Annan realized that what he should do is not to coax the old faction to change their minds, which is impossible. He had seen how stubborn humans were, and that was only the stubbornness accumulated from sixty or seventy years of experience... Which elf didn't have a thousand-year worldview? Their obsession was as thick as the Wall of Sighs.

Even if a fire broke out and the elders were trapped in the burning tree house, and Annan shouted from below: "Jump down, I will catch you with the Great Summoning of Heaven and Earth", they would refuse to rescue.

The old orc at the beginning of "The Redemption of Betar" began to confess.

Annan raised the juice and gestured to the elf captain who realized what was coming out of the sky and looked down.

The elf guards whispered to each other, and Annan heard the faint elf language.

They were embarrassed.

Because Annan did not go out of bounds, they had no right to interfere. But the magic image would indeed affect many people... not only the messengers who raised their heads and opened the windows in the tree house, but also the elves outside.

Two minutes later, the elf captain walked to Annan with long legs.

"Mr. Annan, please put away the Philosopher's Stone."

Annan raised his head and asked back: "Is it the elves' innate sense of justice or a certain elder that drives you to stop me?"

Stopped the elf captain's words, he continued: "If it is the former, I think showing magic images is neither evil nor violates any law of the Green City. If it is the latter... let her come to see me."

The captain of the elves returned empty-handed. After speaking a few words to her guards, she quickly left. It was unknown whether she was going to find the elder behind her or the elder in charge.

Annan ignored him and continued to enjoy the comfort, beauty and lemonade of watching magic images under the world tree.

When he was about to immerse himself in the story, a figure came over.

"They actually found you?"

Annan looked at Ariana in surprise.

Could it be that the instructor who trained her was actually an elder of the Elf King's Court in disguise -

"They think I am your guide and can stop you."

Annan looked at her: "What do you think?"

Ariana suddenly realized that the Annan in front of her was different from the previous few days.

Annan at that time was not so... quiet. He sat there and had to look up to look at Ariana's face, but those eyes seemed to be looking down at her from a high position.

"I..."

"Okay, you are my instructor guide. But only once, tonight."

Annan suddenly took the initiative to let go while Ariana was in a daze, stood up, and announced loudly to the people around who were either looking at this side or watching the magic image: "I'm sorry, everyone. The elf captain guarding us thinks that today is not a good day to show the magic image. It seems that I can only show this story about an innocent person who escapes from prison for freedom tomorrow!"

Annan's hand brushed across the picnic blanket, and the things on it disappeared along with the magic image in the sky. He saluted the elf guards who looked unhappy.

"Good night, see you tomorrow."
