Arcane Lord

After hearing this, Xia Duo was silent for a moment, and then started to contact Said.

Not to mention the invisible alliance between him and Jenna in the field of ascension to the gods, just the interest exchange between the Tower of Time and the Bright Water Chamber of Commerce, the Bright Water Chamber of Commerce cannot be so perfunctory.

Since Said is a senior arcanist, Shado did not use the common one-way communication, but directly constructed a real-time communication spell and waited for the other party to respond.

After a while, the communication spell aura changed, and finally turned into a magical image with blurred edges and clear middle, appearing in the study.

Said, who was in a hurry, appeared in the image. He seemed to have just put down his work and temporarily connected the communication. "Lord Shado, why are you so anxious to see me?"

"Consultant Said, I'm sorry to disturb you. It's about the incident I asked Depak to find you before. Do you remember?"

"that matter?"

Said's expression in the video was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized, "It must be about purchasing arms from Evereska, I remember! I asked Barkan to handle this matter, he is very familiar with the rules of elf society. , I can rest assured that he will do his job.”

"Then he just informed Depak that the elf asked him to meet tomorrow. Do you know about this?"

"Meet tomorrow?"

Said suddenly realized why Shado was looking for him, "Wait a moment, I'll ask, and I will give Lord Shado a satisfactory explanation."

Then, Syd in the magic image stopped moving. After about two or three minutes, the image shook violently, and Syd regained his vitality.

"Lord Chateau, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I just asked Barkan. This matter is complicated and involves Cormanso."

Cormanzo again? These fuckers!

Just now, Xia Duo was angry about the Demon Restriction Treaty, but now that he heard Cormanso's name again, the fire of ignorance surged in his heart.

"Please ask Consultant Said to explain in detail how this matter is related to Cormanso again?"

"Humans are already sensitive when they appear in elven cities, let alone going to camp in the upper city. This matter is almost impossible to do secretly. In fact, Everesca is very willing to sell arms to humans.

"At that time, Barkan had already negotiated an arms purchase intention with the second son of an elder of the Everriska Council of Elders. They didn't care about the competition between Netheril and Cormanthor. They just needed to find the right way to let them do this. It's profitable and they simply won't say no.

“But after Ambassador Cormanzo knew about this matter, its nature changed, and naturally the things promised by the elder’s second son were not counted.

"And in order to damage Netheril's reputation, Ambassador Cormanthor forced the elder to make a bet with him, betting that the meeting would take place on Midsummer's Day to bet on humanity's sincerity.

"As long as humans are sincere, they will agree to arms purchases, but not otherwise."

Having said this, Said hesitated for a moment and expressed his opinion: "Their bet has been spread in Everesca. If Lord Shado is inconvenient to send people, Mingshui Chamber of Commerce can make a name for himself, as long as Our people have gone over, and according to Barkan, even if we don’t give money, Ambassador Cormanso will give us those weapons.”

"Of course, it's not their Comanso's stuff anyway. If you're generous to others, I can give it to you if it's mine!"

Although it was just a joke, Chateau was already aware of Cormanso's evil intentions.

Needless to say, not sending people would directly prove that humans are liars. At least the reputation of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce represented by Barkan will be affected in the elven world in the future.

But if no one is sent, it will actually be more serious. The Lord of Radiance can almost be said to be the official belief of Netheril. Even if some mages and even some territories do not believe in this, they still have to admit this.

At least Xia Duo has never seen any territory that dares to openly oppose the Lord of Glory, and there are almost none who only oppose faith.

The reason for this is largely due to the existence of the Seven Towers. The faith of the Lord of Radiance has greatly consolidated the legal system of the Severnton Council.

Moreover, the teachings of the Lord of Radiance have been modified to a large extent by the Seven Towers. Opposing the teachings of the Lord of Radiance is almost equivalent to opposing the Seven Towers, the Severington Council, and Netheril.

And Midsommar.

Although there is no stipulation in the doctrine, the sun appears in the sky for the longest time on this day of the year. This is undoubtedly a blessing from the Lord of Glory.

I don’t know since when, this day became a carnival, and even slaves did not need to work on this day.

The Midsummer Recruitment of the Tower of Time seems to be a very serious assessment and examination, but in fact, in the past, it was a gift given to ordinary people by Savile.

Only with this gift can you have the opportunity to learn magic and change your destiny.

There is no doubt that sending people to the elven kingdom of Midsummer such as the Netherese on Midsummer's Day would not be accepted by the vast majority of the Netherese.

At least, from a politically correct perspective, this is hardly acceptable to the public.

Not to mention the possibility of blasphemy, it at least proves that the people involved are not considerate of their subordinates, and can even be said to be harsh.

When Depak and Sha Duo talked about this just now, Sha Duo actually didn't feel much in his heart. He was not from Nese. For him, this day was not essentially the same as any other day except that it was busier. the difference.

But in order to take care of De Parker's emotions and not alienate the other party, he still had to show his anger and even questioned Said in front of De Parker.

Although he knew that Depak might not care about this, after all, for mages, Midsummer Festival was just like that. If you were happy, you could go out and have fun. If you were unhappy, you could just stay in the wizard tower and work hard. It was not impossible.

In the past, the Tower of Time would have a holiday every Midsummer Festival, but not to mention the official mages, even the apprentices, there were many who stayed in the mage tower without leaving.

If someone is in the Mage Tower, someone will definitely need to cook. How can there really be nothing to do?

But this attitude still needs to be there.

Just like in Xia Duo's hometown, the Spring Festival is supposed to be a day for family reunion, but there are always people who continue to work actively or passively for various reasons.

This is the cost of running a society.

But this is not the case in terms of international reputation. If Comanso is determined to do things from a politically correct perspective this time, it will definitely be a big disaster.

For the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, it may be more difficult to develop the elf market in the future.

As for Shado, once Cormanthor gets involved, it will easily damage his reputation in Netheril. Prestige and other things may not be of any use at ordinary times, but at critical moments, they can be very fatal.

For example, Xia Duo had just released the "Agricultural Book" not long ago. He had certain expectations about the impact that the agricultural book would have, and there were some good and some bad expectations.

But if the reputation is damaged, then the good will not necessarily be better, but the bad will almost certainly become worse.

As for Brod, perhaps Brod himself would not care about Cormanso's instigation, but the new citizens he applied to recruit from the Sevington Parliament would not be so wise.

Once he heard that he was going to Daxia Territory, if he hesitated a little more, the number and speed of Xia Duo's eventual acquisition of territory citizens would be greatly reduced.

It’s true that “when people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven!”
