Arcane Lord

"for example?"

The one who spoke out was Horn. He had a good personal relationship with Badigal in his early years, but later he hooked up with two of Badigal's students, and they fell in love with each other.

Speaking out at this moment may not be without the idea of ​​​​easing the atmosphere for Badigal.

Badigal glanced at Horn and continued: "Do you still remember the large mithril rich mine discovered in Kiran Tower two hundred years ago? It was leaked to Cormanzo by this Limox, and Cormanzo wanted to I informed Ye Erlan of the solution, and you also know what happened next.”

"What? He leaked the Ubine mine to Cormanthor?! After the then Lord Elinor reported it, Kilan Tower immediately took action and did enough to keep it secret. Unexpectedly, it was defeated at the hands of a group of dwarves. But how did he do it?"

The Ubine mine can be called the largest mithril mine in Netheril, and it is also a rich mine. Along with the silver mine, it also produces various five-color gemstones.

But the problem is that in the past, there was a seven-hundred-year-old mithril agreement between Netheril, Denzo, and Erlan.

The main content is that Danzo and Erlan provide mithril assistance to Netheril. The condition is that the mithril mines discovered in Netheril in the future will be sold to the other two countries in the agreement.

In the early days, Netheril did not have mithril mines, and it did not know how to refine mithril. At the same time, the development of magic also urgently needed mithril. This agreement can be said to be very beneficial to Netheril.

At least it seemed at the time that Netheril was so poor that even magic had to be taught by others. Wouldn't it be stupid not to accept such a good offer?

However, as time stretched to seven hundred years, Netheril first gave up on elven magic, and then continued to discover mithril mines, embarking on an independent path.

Later, the Seven Towers mastered the mithril refining technology, and this agreement became a heavy shackle that was difficult to shake off Netheril.

In the past two hundred years, Netheril has been negotiating with Danzo and Erlan to discuss the renegotiation of the Mithril Agreement of the Three Kingdoms. Denzo did not put up many obstacles, but Erlan was still unwilling to let go.

If it weren't for the drow wars in the past few years, the elven nations were in panic, and Danzo, who was facing the drow, was in urgent need of Netheril's assistance. I'm afraid there would be no hope of changing the agreement now!

When he thought about the fact that many mineral deposits, including Ubine's, had been plundered by Danzo and Erlan for nearly five hundred years, Horn couldn't help but complain about the ancestors who led the signing of the agreement, why were they so unsure of their own development!

Now hearing Badigal mention that the Ubine mine might have been leaked to Cormanthor by Limox, Horn couldn't help but wonder, were other mines also leaked by the dwarfs?

After all, in the mines across Netheril, the most common ones are dwarf miners. Those little guys are naturally experts at doing these jobs.

To this, Badigal’s answer was——

"Lemox is a talented illusionist. Hundreds of years ago, in addition to instigating various resistance actions, the most he did was to cooperate with Master Cormanthor to find the gathering place of dwarves.

"I think he has probably visited all the mines with dwarf slaves in Nese! Can't we tell whether it is a mithril mine after going to the mine?"

"It's actually like this!"

Even as an enemy, Horn couldn't help but be shocked by the opponent's firm will. The lifespan of a dwarf is almost four to five hundred years. If he is a slave, he can live at least two to three hundred years.

If what Badigal said was not misled by the Erlan elf, then it can be said that this Limocks has been working for the cause of racial liberation all his life.

Horn did not think that the only mission of the dwarf was to be a slave to the Nese people. Everything was due to strength. However, after hearing such deeds, he was inevitably touched.

Thinking of Netheril's past entanglements with the elven kingdoms, Horn once again strengthened his belief that if he fell behind, he would be enslaved.

Maybe it's physical, maybe it's mental, the influence of the strong is everywhere.

…

After that, Badigal mentioned several "major events" that Limocks was involved in, and finally mentioned the theft of the scroll that year:

"In Limox's memory, his mission that year was to bring the three high mages of Cormanthor into the Arcane Federation, and to provide disguises for the three high mages while they cracked the protection. As for the three high mages, identity--"

Having said this, Badigal hesitated for a moment, "In Limocks' memory, the images of the three high mages were blank, and all sensory information was deliberately erased.

"The only thing is that when I was interrogating him, he mentioned that he had met a strange elf mage in Cormanthor who felt familiar to him."

"Who is it?" Horn asked hurriedly.

"It's Garanod, the master of one of the three divine swords of Cormanthor, the Sword of Skills."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately fell into silence. Although they had already speculated, getting such a result at this time still made everyone feel heavy.

Having been in contact with Cormanthor for so long, everyone in the Seven Towers naturally understood that behind Galanord was the crowned king of Elisir who had been in power for nearly a thousand years.

If the theft of the scrolls back then was led by King Irisel, then the subsequent investigation might be more difficult than they imagined.

"Could it be that this dwarf is lying and deliberately leading us in the direction of suspicion?"

"Harris, what you said - and Horn, do you doubt that I don't even have the ability to tell lies?"

With that said, Badigal pointed at the motionless dwarf Limocks in the secret room, "He is still alive and here. If you don't believe me, you can take him back for interrogation and inspection."

"It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that we need more concrete evidence for this kind of thing."

"Do you want evidence? Look at that elf, the direct grandson of Elisir, the nephew of Garanod, the most beautiful little prince Seer in Cormanthor."

"It's actually him?!"

Compared with the dwarf, the identity of the elf in front of them shocked everyone in the Seven Towers. Before, they had only heard Badigal mention that he had brought back a prince of Cormanthor who was carrying a stolen Nese scroll.

But there are also many princes of Cormanso, not to mention how many sons Ilisel has given birth to in the past thousand years. There are still sons, and these are also considered princes.

If you just capture an under-appreciated prince, as long as you do it cleanly, that's fine, but if it's the highly-respected Prince Serge, then——

Even if Netheril can figure this out, it will probably be difficult to end.

The faces of everyone in the Seven Towers were uncertain. Indeed, they had made the decision to take back the Nese Scroll regardless of the other party's identity, but they had no idea that the other party's identity was so special.

How will this matter end?
