Chapter 408: centaur tribe

After roughly understanding the situation on the mother's side, Lin naturally continued to ask the young king about his father's situation. After all, it was just said that the previous king died in a war, that is to say, the Kingdom of Pai Arte Jaime was not so stable. So if you stay here, who are the potential enemies you will meet? Even if someone is not curious, he has to think about his own life.

It's just... Which of the surrounding countries is strong enough to shake an elf kingdom? Even killed the king? If that kind of thing really happened, it would be a ghost if the power of the whole country was not used to fight a vigorous battle.

Compared with the outside world, the kingdom of Pyat Jaime, which is relatively closed to the outside world, makes some people feel quite strange. But I haven't heard such rumors in the past few years. In other words, this was already decades ago, and that country had long since been wiped out. Today's conflicts on the border have nothing to do with what happened in the past.

But the answer I got was surprising, but not so surprising. Ridan III said solemnly: "My father was killed by Khan Abdohalik during the battle with the group of centaur bandits."

If there is any race that can be directly classified into the evil camp as soon as it hears its name, the centaur is definitely one of them. Tall and strong, he moves like the wind, his five senses are superior to humans, and he is born with magic resistance, so he can survive in various difficult and dangerous environments.

When these conditions are concentrated on one race, they will come to a conclusion: it is better to use robbing than to work hard... But it does not mean that this race will not work, but under the condition of low productivity, what they are looking for The solution is not to use technology to increase productivity, but to regard robbery as part of labor to fill the gaps needed in one's life.

The biggest difference with the nomads in northern China is that centaurs can show off their power not only on the grasslands, but also in forests, deserts, mountainous areas, and various terrains. They can display terrible combat power. Strong race. Fortunately, the shortcomings are as obvious, just like the elves, the birth rate is not high. If one accidentally kicked the iron plate, it would be easy for them all to die.

But this leads to another question. How many people are there in this group of centaur bandits to challenge an elf kingdom? "Is this a centaur tribal army?" There was such a question because the young king mentioned a term 'Khan'.

The pronunciation of Midi on this proper noun is quite similar to that of Earth, and the meaning is similar. This makes someone surprised, but also wary of the centaur with this title. The title 'Khan' is not something that any cat or dog can use.

"The number of them is not constant. Sometimes there are many people who come to invade, and sometimes there are few people. According to my Minister of War, even when this group of robbers is the largest, they are not the opponents of my Royal Army. But they are elusive, and many Sometimes we can only disperse our forces to defend the key points in various places. Then each defender delays the other side as much as possible, waiting for the encirclement and support of other reinforcements."

There is nothing wrong with the tactics of both sides. Of course, the centaur relies on mobility to play with the elf army. Moreover, stamina may be the top centaur race among all creatures, and it is not something ordinary cavalry can keep up with. The camel bird might be okay, but the cooperation between the knight and the beast rider is not as good as the four legs that other people have.

Wanting to ask more questions, a low but hearty smile came from the side: "Your Excellency Tripwood, I didn't expect you to come to my king's banquet. Can you enjoy my elf?" Delicious food."

Luka Titov, the prime minister of the kingdom whom he had just met in the morning, walked over from not far away with a group of old elves. Looking at the battle, there were more people than when we met in the morning, and each of them looked majestic, not just old people.

Next to him was an elf warrior who was sweating profusely. Judging from its shape, it should be the king's guard.

They couldn't resist the impolite magician's random questions, and they couldn't stop their innocent king from answering seriously. And the minister who was supposed to accompany the king and entertain the silver-bearded dwarf, an ancient ally, was also called away by the prime minister of the kingdom. As a last resort, they could only choose to disturb the meeting of ministers.

Compared with the friendly expressions of Luka Titov and the other old men who had met before, the few old elves who had never seen before all had sullen expressions, looking at someone viciously. It seems that there are also hawks and doves in the elves. I don't know if there are some **** court jokes. Just saying where did I offend them?

A certain person has no consciousness at all that he is spying on national intelligence. Lin felt that he was just chatting with the boy next door, asking for gossip about him. So someone didn't have much resentment for a group of old men who appeared out of nowhere and firmly grasped the dominance of the discourse. Anyway, chatting is not chatting. In this kind of banquet, eating and drinking are more important.

To say that the one that doesn't match this banquet scene is Jermaine, who is saddened to see the program being cleared. He was drinking too much, and his emotions expanded several times, and his chest was full of remorse, which felt like he was about to vomit.

If someone knew, they would just say that they had drunk too much. The wine of the elves is sweet and delicious, but it has a strong stamina. When drinking without restraint, it is very easy to drink to death inexplicably.

As for the other three silver-bearded dwarves, no one sympathized with a guy who asked for it. In other words, now that they haven't made up the knife, they are already very worthy of the friendship between the same race.

They also imitated someone, chatting with those long-sleeved and good at dancing old elves, while desperately fighting with the food on the table. In a hometown with limited resources, waste is shameful. Even on the surface, the silverbeard dwarves are not used to a profligate attitude towards life.

After sending off all the guests at last, the old courtiers of the elf kingdom surrounded their young king, returned to the meeting hall, and sat down according to their respective seats. The king, who was still quite unfamiliar with his duties, felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by a group of old men. He felt a little embarrassed and said: 'Misters, there is something to discuss. '

Although sitting on the most prestigious throne, the young king spent most of his time as a spectator, watching the ministers confront each other, and came to a conclusion that everyone was not satisfied with amidst the noise. Of course, he didn't understand many things, which was the biggest reason why he couldn't get in the way as a king.

Maybe just like what the human magician said, you should ask more questions instead of being a spectator all the time.

But it was not at any time that the young king could stay out of it. When the ministers disagreed, they would also ask their young king's opinion. This has nothing to do with knowing or not understanding, but mainly to get different perspectives on things, to see if we can escape from the original debate and find a different path.

Whenever this happens, Ridan III will be very happy, feeling that he can finally help. But such opportunities are rare, and these capable ministers can always handle things properly. 'King' is really dispensable.

After obtaining the king's consent, the prime minister of the kingdom asked the royal guards who were guarding the surrounding areas to retreat and guard outside the meeting hall. Luca Titov said: 'Your Majesty. I'm here to report to you about the World Tree promotion information I received from the Tripwood magician. '

The prime minister of the Kingdom was articulate and methodical, stating the attitudes of other high officials of the Turtledove Alliance, the needs and actions behind World Tree's promotion, risks and success rates one by one.

For the Elven Kingdom, the growth of the World Tree represents the improvement of the kingdom's strength. Maybe they don't deal with the wood elves very well, and they have different attitudes towards the world tree, but they pay more attention than they do. Therefore, they also have a demand for the promotion of the World Tree, and it can even be said that they just need it.

However, the two factions are at loggerheads over whether to upgrade the World Tree by themselves after obtaining a method, or with the assistance of external forces.

Both of course have their pros and cons. It is of course best if you can master the method yourself. You don't need to hand over your lifeline to others, and you can make your own decisions when faced with various choices. Maybe that decision may not be the best one, but after all, I made it myself, and I can only bear the good or the bad, and I don't have to shirk it.

The disadvantages are also obvious, either it takes time to 'master' the method~www.NovelMTL.com~ or use that 'His Majesty' as an experimental material to learn the correct method from possible mistakes.

...what are you kidding! If the game goes wrong, that "Your Majesty" has a 543, who can afford it? This is not something that one or two elves, or one or two families can bear if they say they want to bear it.

And with the help of external force. Not only the two magicians who are currently in the kingdom, but also the other high-ranking members of the Turtledove Alliance are expected to come to help. Because according to the magician, all they can do is calculate. Find a way forward from the fog. The more people calculate and verify each other, the more correct results will be obtained.

But that old question, can these borrowed 'external forces' be trusted?

The Turtledove Alliance, which has never been at odds with the Elven Kingdom, said otherwise. Just the lich among the two mages, she was the demon king who had destroyed the kingdom of Piatrijaime once in the past.

The elves never mentioned this, not because they forgot about it, but because they couldn't be sure who was indeed the legendary Demon King. If so, what kind of attitude should be used to face it? The hatred of thousands of years ago, only a few elders who stayed near the World Tree have experienced that era. For the rest, they don't even count the enmity of their parents.

Is it possible to use the reason of 'my father was killed by you a year before I was born' to challenge that person?

The attitude of the other party is also different from that of thousands of years ago. At least on the surface, that one didn't do anything aggressive.

But just with such a performance, can you trust the other party and hand over the big event of World Tree promotion to the other party?

Just like the faction that intends to mess around on their own; those who support seeking help from outsiders and seeking a better and more secure path to World Tree promotion are not sure that those who come to help are completely credible.
