Chapter 153 I Obey, Her Majesty the Queen
"Calledor's latest technology can use a special item to stabilize the wind of magic. It just takes some time to take effect. Even if the portal to the Chaos Demon Realm is opened, it can be closed in a short time."
Everyone who heard this was very surprised. Aren't you Caledor the most conservative and traditional? How come you have so many new technologies just a few years after you took the throne, first battleships, and now things that stabilize the wind of magic? .
But seeing that Imrik didn't give any explanation, he could only suppress his curiosity. After all, he had already dug out all his money, so he couldn't continue to ask questions.
Just as everyone was continuing to discuss, there was a knock on the door, followed by a familiar clear and sweet voice, "I hope I didn't interrupt your train of thought."
The person who walked in was obviously Alarielle, and behind her was the chief maid Liraze and several personal maids. Her appearance did not surprise anyone. Everyone stood up and saluted, except of course Imrik.
After the queen asked them to stand up, the atmosphere in the conference room was also awkward. The person sitting in the main seat was Imric, but the highest status person present was Alarielle. If it were other princes, someone might have told him secretly. He gave up his position, but the person on the main seat was not some other prince. The people sitting next to him were a group of dragon princes who actually had giant dragon companions.
Fortunately, Alarielle was also very sensible. She found an empty chair and sat on it casually, not paying attention to the difference in status.
"Continuing with our previous topic, if the Witch King chooses to force someone to charge, such as Malus Blackblade..."
This discussion lasted for a long time. Imric had great confidence in Caledor's strength, but this war would determine the fate of the next two races.
If the Witch King can be killed, the fear lords of Naggaroth will fall into civil war due to their struggle for power, and it will be much easier to deal with Druzi next.
And if Asur fails in this war, then the elves will usher in a "real" Phoenix King. This Phoenix King will unreservedly release the hatred accumulated for thousands of years, with Ulthuan as the leader. The Center begins spreading fear around the world.
…………
At midnight, Imrik walked to the balcony alone in a simple nightgown and looked up at the two moons. Mannasrib's white figure was much brighter than Mosrib's evil green light. It is much clearer that Xie Yue did not play a big role in this chaotic storm.
Picking up the wine glass and taking a sip, the Dragon Prince was thinking about the next thing. If Druzi was defeated this time, he had three options. The first was to directly organize an expeditionary force to attack Nagaros, and the second was to go to the old world to support The third step in the Great Holy War is to stabilize Osu and then go to Lustria to start the colonial movement.
If you want to resolve thousands of years of hatred, then the first choice is the most appropriate, but...
He squinted his eyes and thought about Kazuoin's reply. After Cohir had sent someone to take the weapon blessed by Kane to the Platinum Flame Temple, it was delivered to him intact without any written explanation, but The meaning is obvious, the Platinum Flame Temple will not participate in this war.
"Asuyan, this deceptive god is really troublesome."
Imric sighed in his heart. If he forcibly withstood the loss, there was a high probability that the Witch King would be able to leave his life in the Fennuvar Plain. But suppose Asuryan intervened out of thin air and suddenly sent that guy to death. Entering the Demon Realm of Chaos, or being thrown into the Holy Fire, no matter what the situation is, I cannot accept this reality.
"Try your best to kill him. If Asuryan intervenes out of thin air, then I will take Caledo to join Cathay. At worst, I will become a son-in-law. The old man Dragon Emperor will not refuse."
Just when he was thinking about which dragon son the old Dragon Emperor would betroth to him, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. The footsteps were very light and a little sneaky.
But Imrik knew that the owner of the footsteps was not an assassin, so he said without looking back, "Has our queen accepted all the worship from Assur?"
The Queen who walked up to the Dragon Prince did not react to his cynicism as usual and said with a sad tone, "Imric, what should I do?"
After hearing this, Imrik turned to look at her and found a little sadness in her eyes, "Too many Asur have lost family and friends in this war, and they are all looking forward to what I can give them. Comfort and peace, but I can’t do that.”
"I saw the light in the eyes of those who were grieving. It was the light after seeing hope. It was like grabbing that light when they were most helpless in the dark night, but they didn't know that this light was actually just an illusion. .”
The Queen choked up a bit as she spoke. After the meeting, she went to the gathering place around the White Tower of Hoth to console the refugees, most of whom were Avalonians and those who came to the White Tower of Hoth from Val Fennu. Asul, these people lost their homes, relatives and friends. Even if they saved their lives, they couldn't stand this stimulation.
The hearts of elves are the most sensitive and can capture the thoughts they want to express from other people's eyes or subtle movements. This allows them to easily understand other people, but they can also easily fall into other people's thoughts. In the spiritual whirlpool.
Others may be heaven to some people when they are alive, but they become hell after they leave.
To be honest, Imrik is a little helpless about this kind of thing. How do I know how to comfort the refugees who have lost their family and friends? According to Caledor's habit, it must be to gather troops and kill all the enemies, even if they don't want to live anymore, He has to die on the battlefield. To think of committing suicide while fleeing is simply a coward.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt helpless and handed her the wine glass in his hand, "Since you don't know what to do, then don't do it. Everyone has their own meaning in life. Maybe the meaning of those people is to live in pain. "
Taking the wine glass, Alarielle did not dislike the glass used by the prince, and drank the contents in one gulp. When she heard Imric's words, she felt angry and funny for a moment.
"How can it be possible that the meaning of someone's life is to live in pain? This is simply a fallacy."
"That's not necessarily the case. Tomorrow you can find someone in front of me and I will explain this theory to him. I guarantee that he will agree."
These words made the queen feel better, "That must be because there are several dragon princes standing behind you. Do you dare to say he disagrees?"
Just when the Dragon Prince wanted to continue to quibble, he felt a familiar touch on his shoulder, "Don't talk and stay with me for a while."
Shaking his head helplessly, he took the empty cup and placed it on the railing of the balcony, "As you command, Her Majesty the Queen."
Ps: Sorry, the author has too many things to do in the past two days. He stayed up late to get the manuscript out, so he didn't pay attention to the time when posting.
