Chapter 2111 Buried Nails, Declined
Terminos.
Sruvend was once one of the central cities, and its name means "boundary stone". Now it has really become the boundary stone between Sruvend and the traitors in the south!
Yes, traitor! Although the establishment of the Kingdom of Elam and even joining the Northland Alliance have been widely recognized, even by Sruvend himself, the name of the traitor is not so easy to wash away.
Even Sruvender's current regime, the original resistance organization [Eclix Pact], is consciously shaping such a consensus domestically.
It is foreseeable that even without Yeerlan's intervention in the future, it will be difficult for these two neighboring countries, which are supposed to be blood relatives, to have a relatively friendly relationship.
Shado's perception "walked" on the war-torn streets of Terminos, and he could vaguely see the prosperous past projected from the ruins.
In the residents of Terminos who returned to their hometown, Shado also saw the seeds of anger, hatred and lingering fear.
“What a city!”
Xia Duo lamented the cruelty of war, but the "pace" did not stop at all, and this seemed to indicate that his heart was not shaken by such tragedy.
After wandering around the city for a long time, he finally set his sights on an elite mage who was being deployed to repair the city's mysterious lock.
Compared to other mages, the one chosen by Shado had a stronger emotional reaction, which was an unforgettable hatred for the southern Kingdom of Elam.
In Shado's perception, the emotions of the elves in the city were as obvious as the lights at night, and the brightest among the mages was the elite mage called "Person Ekaras" by his companions.
In the verbal conversations with his companions, Person Urkaras also showed a more obvious pretentiousness than other elves, which was a weakness that Shado could exploit.
Out of fear of the mysterious prophetic spells of the Illuminati behind Elan, Shado hopes to put himself aside as much as possible. Even if he has to confront the Illuminati in the future, it will be later, not now.
When he came here this time, he only planned to bury a nail first, and did not want to make any big move.
…
After obtaining the current temporary residence of Person Urkaras from the conversation with his companions, Shado temporarily gave up following Person Urkaras.
After all, the other party is involved in repairing the Mystery Lock, so there is no guarantee that he can detect his prying eyes with the help of some ability of the remaining Mystery Lock.
Although there is not much hindrance to the plan itself, such accidents should be avoided as much as possible.
By estimating the repair progress of Master Sruvender such as Person Urkaras, Shado found the remains of an inconspicuous natural stone building on the way home from Person Urkaras.
Then he took out the [Golden Finger] that he had carefully prepared in advance by taking advantage of the ability of the portable space to manifest with consciousness, and after a brief adjustment, he threw it into the ruins.
After that, he was not going to intervene too much, so as not to leave too many traces. No matter whether Person Urkaras or any other elf got the [Golden Finger], it would not affect the realization of the final plan.
Of course, it would be better if Person Urkaras got it. This could be regarded as a little game played by Sha Duo and himself.
…
Floating city.
The conversation between Shado and Hildalanna continued, and they were talking about the steep mountains near Tevi Mansa and the tall oak trees that carried the city on the mountain ridges.
With the recovery of perception, Xia Duo's concentration on the conversation gradually recovered. After reviewing the memories of the previous conversation between the two parties, he said casually:
“I can’t wait to see the wonder of Tevi Mansa on top of the mountains!”
"As an elf born in Taivimansa, I feel very honored to be called such by Lord Shado. But if we want to talk about miracles, Lord Shado's floating fortress is a miracle."
Seeing that Hildalanna finally couldn't help but bring the topic to the floating city, Shado just smiled slightly and did not respond directly. If you want to talk about miracles, [Mythra] is the one, and the floating city is just a place to carry [Secret]. Sera] is just a shell.
Now that the elves only see the floating city, but not Mythra, it is certainly impossible for Shado to be so generous as to reveal the biggest secret of the floating city to the opponent.
However, when she was in Cormanso, Kelani, who was suspected to be the incarnation of the Elf God, seemed to have discovered something. However, she was afraid of the certification of the goddess of magic, so she did not investigate further.
Sha Duo has never forgotten this matter. At this moment, when Hildalanna brought the topic to the floating city, he couldn't help but wonder if the other party had heard some rumors or received some inspiration from the Elf God.
But no matter what, it is impossible for Xia Duo to open the floating city for the elves to check at will. Allowing them to come to the public floor to have a look is already the biggest concession he has made.
Now the floating city is known as the "Floating Fortress" outside. Everything is due to the war spells it carries. Xia Duo does not want to explain that this is actually an extremely ordinary city in his plan, allowing the misunderstanding to continue. Let the elves continue to be afraid!
…
Shado brought the topic back to Tevi Mansa, which was a tactful expression of rejection. Hildalanna's expression froze, and the conversation between the two was no longer as harmonious as before.
Of course, for Shado, it was actually that Hildalanna had been used and there was no need to keep the conversation going. Next, he asked the other party everything about Tevi Mansa - public information.
Sometimes they even deliberately repeat previous questions, which makes the conversation between the two even more awkward.
If the floating city flies slower, or if Taivi Mansa flies further, Sha Duo himself will not be able to stand the awkward atmosphere. As the floating city gradually approaches Taivi Mansa, the atmosphere of the conversation between the two eases. .
"Lord Shado, since we have arrived at Taivi Mansa, I won't stay any longer. Envoys from King Mian and the Council will come to meet you later. I hope Lord Shado will not forget the previous agreement."
"Don't worry, I won't forget it." Xia Duo said loudly.
The so-called agreement was actually the conditions put forward by Erlan for his entry - he could only move around Taivi Mansa.
In fact, Hildalana didn't need to remind her about this, Sha Duo would do it. After all, he had agreed to it, and his trip was for travel, not to cause trouble.
…
After sending Hildalanna away, Shado began to control the floating city to descend. After a while, when the floating city passed through the boundary locked in the sky by Taivimansa, he received a message from an elf who claimed to be the messenger of the crown king. .
Immediately afterwards, news from the parliamentary messenger arrived.
After Xia Duo opened the public level of the floating city after space transformation to open to invited visitors, a total of four elves were teleported to Hengchun Square on the public level almost in unison.
Among them, there was one envoy from the Crown Prince, and three more came on behalf of the Gaoshu Council of Elders.
From here, Shado also saw that in the recent changes in Yeerlan, King Helien Mian suffered a loss, but still maintained an advantage.
