Arcane Lord

Early the next morning, Sha Duo was still trying to analyze the consciousness information of those mysterious casters. Although he could not fully analyze it, he also got some definite information.

For example, those mysterious spellcasters were indeed demons, and they came from different countries. Except for Sluvende and Akaula, all the other elven countries in the Northland Alliance were involved.

Xia Duo can understand that there are no Akora elves. After all, Akora has been in seclusion for a long time, and it has only been open to a limited extent in the past two years.

but--

The absence of the Sruvend elves made him very confused. Could it be that Sruvend had already interrogated the information about the demon casters and disposed of them on their own if they found out that they were from Sruvend?

But this doesn't make sense. Those demon casters have never been out of Sha Duo's sight from the time they appeared until now. If Sluvende can do some secret operation under his nose, he will not stay. Such a big flaw.

He carried himself out, but everyone was there. Carrying him too cleanly would attract suspicion.

Perhaps in response to what Sepetia said before, the problem of demons in the upper echelons of Sruvend has been eliminated, so there are no Sruvend elves among the demon casters who tried to intervene in the war between the two countries this time.

But no matter what, it is an ironclad fact that demons have infiltrated into the Northern Alliance.

…

Time soon came to the morning. Originally, Xia Duo had no intention of participating in or just observing today's multi-party talks. He planned to concentrate on analyzing the collected consciousness copies as soon as possible.

But a sudden piece of news still disrupted his original plan. Badigal personally summoned him and informed Shado of an assassination incident that occurred in Yeerlan last night.

"Another assassination?!"

Sha Duo was deeply shocked by this, not only because the assassin was a demon, but also because the assassination took place in Taivimansa, the capital of Yeerlan, and he killed a prime minister in public in public. High Mage.

The information Badigal learned was quite detailed, and there were even eyewitness reports at the scene. According to the witnesses at the scene, the assassin was able to get close to the high mage by disguising himself as a cupbearer's servant.

During the assassination, the witnesses only saw a burst of black mist rolling past, and then heard the high mage's screams and the final news of his death.

"How can we be sure that the assassin is the demon?"

"Of course we outsiders who were not present can't be sure, but Ye Erlan intercepted the assassin almost immediately after the assassination. Although he finally let the other party run away, the assassin was exposed while escaping. The news about the unique evil power of demons was first spread by the ambassadors of various countries in the North to Taivimansa, so it should be true. "

Shado also believed most of Badigal's words. After all, the Netherese ambassador from Tevimansa was from the Seven Towers. He should have personally confirmed the authenticity of the news when reporting to the superiors.

Even if he himself is not sure, there are still envoys from other countries, so it should not be difficult to draw a preliminary conclusion.

The only pity is that we couldn't catch the assassin. If we could, we could use [Consciousness Cage] to extract a copy, and we should be able to discover the secret behind the assassin.

Now just knowing the identity of a demon is actually of little use, at least to Xia Duo.

But for Ye Erlan, it was completely different.

…

Xia Duo still did not participate in the subsequent talks, but he also used magic to observe.

Perhaps because he had just lost a high-ranking mage to an assassin, Commander Adariel of Yeerlan kept a straight face throughout the meeting, and from time to time made vulgar words to curse the demon descendants during the meeting.

But no other representatives at the scene raised any objections. After all, they had just experienced something bad and they had to let them vent.

This matter can indeed be called a bad thing, but Ye Erlan used it to gain sympathy and prove in disguise that he has nothing to do with the demon.

After all, no country is stupid enough to use the death of a high mage at his peak to prove anything.

Perhaps because they also felt the threat of demons, the morning's negotiations went surprisingly smoothly. Before getting down to business, representatives from various countries finalized the establishment of a demon intelligence sharing platform.

It was not like yesterday's dinner where Ye Erlan was asked to give up the right to review demons on the grounds that Ye Erlan's demons were seriously infiltrated before agreeing to continue negotiations.

Although only a preliminary framework agreement has been reached so far, the information sharing platform has been quickly "online"——

The Northland Alliance headquarters has opened up a private information exchange space in the alliance mystery lock covering the Northland, which is only linked by a specific interface.

As for the subsequent formulation of more specific details on the use and maintenance of the information sharing platform, it can be done slowly.

This shows that various countries are on guard against the infiltration of demons and their determination to completely eliminate the infiltration of demons!

In the subsequent negotiations, representatives from various countries did not unanimously target Ye Erlan as they did yesterday. It is true that they can continue to target Ye Erlan at the moment, but solving the threat of demons seems to be more important.

It was also at this time that Badigal promptly proposed, "As for the final ownership of the southern area of ​​​​Sruvend, I think both sides can take a step back and use the city of Terminos as the boundary, and return the area to the north directly to Sruvend." Germany, heading south——"

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Serpetia on the spot - "The south is also Sluvend's inherent territory!"

A trace of displeasure flashed in Badigal's eyes, but he still explained patiently, "Elves advocate freedom and respect the people's choices. Perhaps before the war, the south of Terminos City still belonged to Sluvend's territory, but now , the people there voluntarily gave up their identity as Sruvind, and I hope Elder Sepetia will recognize this fact.”

Although what Badigal said was not completely accurate, it was partly true. The area south of Terminos City quickly surrendered to Ye Erlan at the beginning of the war.

Perhaps Sluvende can say that this was planned by Yerlan, but that area was greatly influenced by Yerlan, and it is an indisputable fact that after the "referendum" incident, it was separated from other areas of Sluvende.

Even if Sluvender takes it back, it will be difficult to go back to the past, so why not——

Badigal continued: "But this war in Yeerlan does not comply with the Northland Alliance Charter. There is nothing wrong with opening up territory, but it cannot be done in a way that harms other countries. If all countries follow the same example in the future, the Northland Alliance Charter will It’s no different than waste paper.

"Therefore, I suggest that since the areas south of Terminos voluntarily gave up their status as Sluvend, and cannot join Yeerland due to the Northland Alliance charter, it is better to establish an independent country. Isn't this how the countries in the Northland came to be in the first place! "

"Establishing an independent country?"

In fact, representatives from various countries had vaguely heard rumors before that Netheril intended to promote the independence of the southern region of Sruvend, but they did not expect to establish an independent country.

Sepetia was even more dissatisfied at this moment and immediately responded tit for tat: "Isn't Sir Badigal worried about the independence of the lords in Netheril?"

"I'm worried, but what I'm more worried about is that the Seven Towers are unable to maintain the Seventon Covenant. If there is a day when the lords from all over the world become independent, it will not be their fault, but the fault of the Seven Towers. I fully support this! Of course, Prior to this, Lord Nese could also declare independence as long as the relevant provisions of the Sevington Covenant were met."
