Chapter 258 Pearl City Lord Michelle
The general background of the main plot of the three rings is: Oran City cannot bear the consumption of 300,000 troops, and is extremely short of armaments, food and other materials.
The only one that can provide supplies is Pearl City, located in the southeast of the empire.
But now the land route between Oran City and Pearl City is cut off by the rebels, and the water route is blocked by the mixed navy of the Lane Empire and the Wind Chime Empire. The cost of using the teleportation array is extremely high.
Therefore, the heavy responsibility of transporting supplies falls on the players.
After all, players are cheap labor, and NPCs have discovered that whenever something happens, players will be happy to help if they give you a little favor. Not to mention the cost is small, and the effect is good.
…
Su Yu yelled a few words on the guild channel and the president's chat room, and soon they gathered 20,000 people.
The snow leopard didn't come, but the range is the truth and the red-eyed black dragon came.
Su Yu handed over the management of the players to the two of them. Then everyone uses the player's exclusive teleportation array to teleport directly to Pearl City.
After arriving at Pearl City, everyone mounted their mounts and rushed to the Lord's Palace of Pearl City under the leadership of Su Yu.
At the entrance of the city lord's mansion, Su Yu asked the players to wait at the door while he went to meet the city lord alone.
Pearl City is indeed the richest city in the entire empire, and the interior decoration of the city lord's palace is very luxurious.
Walking in, you will see sculptures made by dwarf masters, magic fountains made by elven craftsmen, and landscape calligraphy and paintings by pandaren. In comparison, the former lord of Oran City, Claude, looked like a beggar.
Following the guards, Su Yu walked all the way to the depths of the City Lord's Mansion.
In a reception room at the far end, Su Yu met the Lord of Pearl City - [Michelle Derank].
Michelle Derank is a half-elf lady who is over 800 years old, but she still maintains the appearance of an 18-year-old girl. Her distinctive pointed ears can confirm her identity as a half-elf.
Su Yu and Michelle met several times.
When he was in Forest City before, Su Yu had helped Xi Fan deliver a letter to Michelle. Michelle was also present when Xifan usurped the throne and committed regicide, so everyone can be said to be old acquaintances.
Of course, Michelle knew about Su Yu's status in the heart of the princess. This man would have the chance to become a prince in the future!
So after seeing Su Yu, she said enthusiastically without sitting still: "Your Majesty Nemesis, I wonder why you came to me this time? Is it the intention of Your Highness the Princess?"
"That's right, Her Royal Highness asked me to give you a letter." Su Yu said, taking out the Princess's autographed letter from his backpack and handing it to Michelle.
"A letter from Her Royal Highness?" Michelle took the envelope, used a special spell to remove the magic seal on the letter, and then began to browse the contents.
But as she browsed the contents of the letter, the smile on her face quickly disappeared and was replaced by an extremely solemn look.
Su Yu took a sip of tea and asked curiously: "Mr. Michelle, can you tell me the content of the letter?"
"This..." Michelle glanced at Su Yu.
After a brief thought, she nodded: "If someone else asked me, I would definitely not tell you, but you... based on your relationship with Her Royal Highness, it doesn't hurt to tell you."
Michelle used her mental power to scan the surroundings vigilantly. After making sure there was no one, she said, "The first half of the letter is about material transportation."
"Her Royal Highness asked me to hand over the prepared supplies to you adventurers from another world, and you will take them back to Oran City."
Su Yu nodded: "What about the second half?"
"The second half of the content is confidential." Michelle leaned into Su Yu's ear and lowered her voice and said, "Her Royal Highness plans to fight the rebels!"
"decisive battle?"
"Yes, Her Royal Highness plans to rely on the defense of Oran City to fight the rebels, and strive to eliminate the rebels' high-level warriors and most of the army in one battle, and completely defeat the rebels."
"This..." Su Yu touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Michelle continued: "For this decisive battle, Her Royal Highness asked me to go to the Elf Kingdom and invite the Regent of the Elf Kingdom to take action. The Regent is a seventh-level peak Druid. With him, we can The high-level warriors will crush the rebels."
"Elf Regent?!" Su Yu was shocked: "Isn't it true that elves cannot interfere in human internal affairs?"
"There is an old saying among Pandaren, it's called 'This time, that time'." Michelle shook her finger nonchalantly: "The rules are all set by humans. Now that the empire is on the verge of destruction, do you still care about these rules? ?”
"That's right." Su Yu was relieved.
Michelle smiled and said: "What's more, the patron saint also has a treasure of the elves - the [Eternal Crown]. Her Royal Highness promised the regent that if they participated in the war, she would return the crown to them. I think the regent has a high probability of doing so. Participate in this war. I tell you this, but don’t tell anyone else!”
"Don't worry about this, I promise not to tell anyone else." Su Yu replied quickly.
"That's good." Michelle stood up from her seat: "Then I will take you to the warehouse in the south of the city to get these supplies. You can send the supplies back to Oran City as soon as possible to avoid Her Royal Highness worrying."
"Okay." Su Yu replied and stood up.
Three minutes later, Su Yu rode Dima and Michelle rode a white purebred horse. The two walked side by side, talking and laughing as they walked out of the city lord's mansion.
Su Yu was joking with Michelle on the surface, but in his heart he kept thinking about what just happened.
There was one thing he didn't understand - why did Michelle tell him such an important secret?
If what Michelle said was true, then this matter was almost related to the victory or defeat of the entire war!
Is it appropriate to tell him such a confidential matter?
Although his relationship with the princess was special, the more people knew about this kind of thing, the more risk of leakage.
"Something is wrong, very wrong." Su Yu muttered in his heart.
But he didn't analyze what was wrong.
The players in front of the city lord's mansion saw Su Yu riding out on his mount and greeted him:
"Mr. Ke, you finally came out?!"
"It's over so quickly?"
"Wow, such a beautiful half-elf!"
"Prince Ke, you actually messed around with other women behind the princess' back?"
"I don't care, I've taken a screenshot, this is the evidence of Mr. Ke's cheating!"
Su Yu was too lazy to explain to the players, and waved to them:
"Everyone get on the mount, the supplies are in the warehouse in the south of the city, let's follow the city lord."
Hearing Su Yu's words, the players realized that this young and beautiful half-elf was actually the city lord of Pearl City.
But Tima and the purebred horse were very fast and had already run far away. The players quickly summoned their mounts to catch up.
…
In a large warehouse in the south of the city, the supplies that Michelle prepared for Oran City were piled up.
The warehouse was full of large wooden boxes of 1-2 cubic meters, with food, weapons, armor, daily necessities and other supplies placed on the wooden boxes.
After entering the warehouse, Michelle smiled at Su Yu and said, "Nemesis, these 20,000 boxes are all the supplies that Oran City needs. I'll leave these supplies to you!"
