Chapter 2217 Draw a Clear Line
Looking down at Green Wilder who was lying in the middle of the hall, his legs were trembling, and his eyes were frightened and sinister, I sneered with a contemptuous tone: "Scared? Huh? Are you scared yet? Not yet. What will happen to you? Are you so scared that you can’t stand up? Hehe, you still claim to be a descendant of legendary heroes. Don’t you think that your current state insults the wisdom of your ancestors?”
"My ancestors, my elders don't need to worry about my family's affairs."
"Of course I won't worry about your family's affairs, but I'm laughing at you, don't you hear? I'm laughing at you! I was so frightened that I trembled at the slightest threat, and even peed my pants. ?”
"No!" Green Wilder roared almost losing his mind.
"Oh, it turns out you didn't wet your pants. That's not bad. At least you're a coward with some courage."
With a sneer, I continued: "When you were dragged out just now, were you desperate? Were you helpless? Were you eager to get help from others? Even if it was just a 'stop'?"
Wilder did not speak. His face was red and he was breathing heavily, like an angry bull. Unfortunately, he not only did not have the strength of the bull, but he was also no match for the bull.
"I felt the same way at the time, but I was in a much better condition than you. Although most of the bones in my body were crushed, even though my internal organs were stabbed by the broken bones, even though the air in my lungs was squeezed out. It has to be clean. Although I am about to die, I have not given in. I am still trying to survive, using the teeth I can only use, constantly biting Atlas’s fingers, but unfortunately the skin is too thick and I can’t bite it.”
"Now that I think about it, I am quite favored by God. At least, when I was dying, my Rose Legion subordinates shot magic and arrows together to delay my survival. At the same time, my My friend, that ice ball used its magic to save me, and I was lucky enough to survive. But what about your army in Dasai City? It’s like watching a play, standing quietly in position dozens of meters away. He looked at me like a clown, looking at me coldly and sarcastically. Oh, by the way, there is also your leader, the old Duke. He has also been looking at me. His bright old eyes seemed to be watching the play in the water. He looked at me like a duck, but he was obviously capable but refused to help me."
"You are just here to cheer, not the army. The old Duke has no obligation to save you," Wilder said coldly as he slowly got up from the ground.
"You are right. The old duke has no obligation to save me, and the city of Dashai that the old duke represents also has no obligation to attack me! I am solely responsible for all my words and deeds! Why do you blame me? Why should you blame me for running away from the battlefield? I am representing myself! What does it have to do with you, Dashai City, whether I escape or not?"
"But you are the prime minister of Dasha City, and you have the obligation to serve Dasha City!" Green Wilder seized the position of 'prime minister' and challenged me.
"Since he knows that I am the prime minister of Dashai City, why does the old Duke still watch me die with indifferent eyes?"
"Because once you are rescued, Atlas is likely to be angered. Once a monster of that level goes crazy and gets angry and gets out of control, the entire army will be annihilated."
"Control? Who controls whom? Don't tell me that you can control Atlas with just the troops in Dashai City! From the beginning, Atlas is not under your control. The real use of force to control Atlas is The only people whose movements in Sri Lanka are restricted to a certain range are me and my family! It was us who sacrificed our lives for the survival of the army!"
Along with my roar, the eyes of everyone in the hall were filled with disdain and disgust. These eyes were all directed at Green Wilder, the special envoy of Dasha City who was standing awkwardly in the middle of the hall, almost ready to refute. The look of horror on the latter's face became more intense. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
"Prime Minister, haha, Prime Minister, what a proud position, what a lofty status. In the eyes of many people, these two words mean the respect of one person below and above ten thousand people. But is this really the case?"
I laughed sadly: "If the Prime Minister is really so noble and important, why is it that when life and death are at stake, no one from Dasai City is willing to come to the rescue? Everyone is watching with cold eyes, everyone wants to stay out of the matter, and everyone Everyone only thinks about their own safety. If at that moment, there was no help from the Legion of Roses, and there was no family risking their lives to save you, there would be no me sitting here, threatening you while telling you the truth. "
Sighing softly, I said: "I have nothing to confess, and there is nothing worth confessing anymore. His Majesty the Orc King gave me the position of prime minister, and I repaid him with treasures, blood and sweat, and even ancient artillery. Maybe you don’t know the value of these things, but as long as you find some professionals and do a little research, you should be able to figure it out. In other words, I don’t owe His Majesty the Orc King anything, nor do I owe anything to Dashai City. Now, the position of prime minister has been returned to Your Majesty, and you can take it away from me if you want to take away the merit and title."
Green Wilder really didn't expect such an ending. He couldn't understand that as the former Prime Minister of Dasha City and the son-in-law of His Majesty the Orc King, I would draw a clear line with Dasha City without any delay. To him, this seemed to be a dream, a nightmare from which he had not yet awakened.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to shake himself awake, and even pinched the inner bend of his arm with his nails. However, even though waves of severe pain destroyed his nerves and made him grin and look hideous, he still couldn't. Wake up from the nightmare.
Yes, this seemed to him to be a nightmare, but it was also the most real and cruel reality.
After that, the Elf Queen asked him some other questions. Wilder answered the Queen's questions one by one in a somewhat confused manner, without even setting any language traps, which clearly shows his miserable situation.
After Green Wilder left the hall sadly, the Elf Queen nodded slightly to me and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, as the Queen, I neither know what happened to my ministers, nor can I solve their problems. It's really derelict in my duty. "
"It's a matter of being loyal to the emperor and eating the emperor's salary. Since I earn this salary, I naturally have to solve problems for Her Majesty the Queen and work hard for the great cause of Moonlight City."
These words are sonorous and powerful, but extremely hypocritical. Everyone present is a shrewd person. They are well aware of the unusual relationship between me and the Queen of Elf. They only knew about it but pretended to be stupid. They saw through it without telling us. They all looked at us with ambiguous smiles. , the Elf Queen's cheeks turned red with blush, her head slightly drooped, like a peony in bud.
