Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer
Chapter 734 585 Something is wrong
Daxus laughed suddenly, as if he had a seizure. His action proved one thing, that is, whether it is human or elf, they will suddenly laugh when they are extremely speechless.
He prepared a meal, but two tables of guests came. How could he eat the meal? He could only find a chance to ask Genevieve to make more... The meal he prepared was not a reference, it was just a simple meal. After all, he was the landlord, and he had to show some appreciation when guests came.
Of course, whether or not to have a meal was not important, if it really didn't work, he could just wait a little longer. The most important thing was that he was speechless by the figure's movements and momentum, so much so that he had an illusion that the densely packed black ships in the surrounding harbor were not plunder ships, but eagle ships, and the black arks had also turned into dragon ships, as if this was not Chapeyuto, but Tal Iris?
The person who came was none other than Eltharion Aerith. There was no such thing as a "ruthless person". His current behavior was a bit like a rebellious teenage boy of fourteen or fifteen or sixteen, a sunny big boy. There was no such thing as a ruthless person.
Daxus still kept smiling. He nodded to Karahir who was still looking at him, and walked towards where Eltharion was.
How to say it, the atmosphere at this moment was a little stiff, but more of it was awkward, so much so that he suddenly recalled bad things.
In the last world, when he was fifteen or sixteen years old, one day he followed a group of friends to visit another friend's store. He got off the car first and walked straight in. He still remembers what he wore that day, Harley glasses, camouflage clothes and military boots. After entering, he stood there, and the clerks in the store were stunned, and he was also stunned, then he turned around, opened the door and went out... went out.
He would not respond. No matter how he responded at this moment, it would be inappropriate. He stood in the middle. If he walked back, it was not the same as Duruchi's side. His momentum was weak. If he walked forward, it was not the same as Asul's side. He was furious. If he walked left or right, he would fall into the sea.
After passing Karasijir, he stopped, raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and shouted at Eltharion. At this moment, he was possessed by Corporal Morishita.
"Good! Very energetic!"
The sudden shout broke the atmosphere. His voice carried an undeniable shocking force, like a sudden storm that made all the elves present shudder.
Hoha's body trembled, and this tremor moved his arm, pulling the Messer knife halfway out of the scabbard. Hearing the movement, Maranul still kept a helpless smile, pressed his hand on his uncle's forearm, and then used force to push the Messer knife back out of the scabbard, and then shook his head slightly at his uncle who was looking at him.
Isharion, who was called, was also shocked. His expression changed from looking down on the world to being stunned. He widened his eyes slightly. He never expected that Daxus would break the atmosphere on the scene in this way.
After shouting suddenly, Dacuus walked towards Eltharion again. As he walked, he put his hands behind his back, as if this was not a dock, but a park, and he was just an old man who was not hunched over, had good legs and feet, and did not need a cane to walk. But his steps were firm, and with every step he took, Eltharion's heartbeat quickened a little.
Isharion watched Dacreus walking towards him from one end of the pier. The pier was very wide, and ships could dock on both sides. Dacreus looked very small against the wide pier. But strangely, he had an illusion. He felt a terrible and very real sense of oppression from Dacreus, like a giant beast covering the entire pier, fierce and unstoppable.
He felt as if he was no longer standing here, but was held in the shadow of the giant beast by an irresistible force. Dacus was getting closer and closer to him, as if he would rush in front of him in the next second and swallow him up unstoppably. His hand involuntarily touched the fang sword, and his fingers instinctively gripped the hilt. However, the fingers gripping the hilt were trembling slightly, and even he could feel it.
The cold touch of the hilt sobered him up a little, and his thoughts echoed in his ears, warning him not to pull out the sword. He swallowed unnaturally, trying to suppress the urge to tremble, trying to keep himself calm.
He reminded himself that the Darkus in front of him was not wearing any armor and was completely exposed in front of him. As long as he drew his sword, it seemed that he could end it all in an instant. However, he also knew that the Darkus in front of him was not an easy existence to deal with. That aura, the source of that power, was more irresistible than any armor.
In just a few steps, he suppressed the fighting spirit in his heart. He loosened his fingers, barely controlling himself not to make any unnecessary movements, just waiting quietly, watching Dacus approach step by step.
"It's standing up?"
"what?"
"I heard that you completed the final blow to the demon. How do you feel? Do you feel that your power has touched another... realm?" Daquus shook his head. What he said before was not Elsalin. He did not expect Eltharion to understand. He looked at Eltharion and continued to ask. There was a sense of knowing the truth in his words, as if he had seen through everything, and it was as if he was testing Eltharion's understanding of his own power.
"Yes... it is indeed unusual." Eltharion was stunned, realizing that Dacreus was asking him about the fierce battle that made him hover on the edge of life and death, and finally beheaded the great demon. Recalling the frenzy and powerful moment at that moment, he felt a fire burning in his body. Although he was still a little confused, he said calmly, "At that moment, I felt as if I was close to something... some higher power?"
After saying that, he was stunned. He didn't understand why he followed Dacus' words. Just as he was about to think, he saw Dacus' hands slowly stretched out from behind his back. He raised his left hand in front of him, then clenched his fingers into a fist, leaving only his little finger exposed.
"The sea is not only full of storms, there are other dangers. On the way back here, we encountered some bad situations. I don't want to talk about the details. What I want to express is that you have great potential. Keep working hard, and... not only practice martial arts, but also cultivate your mind. Only in this way can you surpass yourself." Daxus said to the end, spreading all his fingers and resting them on Isharion's shoulders. Then he leaned his head against Isharion's ear and whispered, "Maybe one day you will walk out of the holy fire without the fire avoidance spell."
"Me?" Eltharion was a little uncomfortable at first, but he did not avoid Dacreus's actions. When he heard Dacreus's whisper, he was stunned and asked in a daze.
"Come on!" Daxus patted Isharion's shoulder, then spread his hands and gave Isharion a warm hug. After the hug, he put his hands on Isharion and patted him, "Welcome to Chapeyuto. You are a guest here. Relax. There is no need to be so tense."
"They... seem familiar?" Finarfin, who witnessed all this, whispered.
Siglin did not respond verbally, but nodded.
At the same time, some Duruchi who didn't understand what was going on were also whispering to each other.
Marlene, who was watching all this at the side of the ship, turned her head to look at Adianna. After Adianna looked at her, she shook her head speechlessly.
"Now that we are here, aren't you going to come down?" He pulled his hand back from Eltharion's shoulder and waved. Dacuus was not blind, and as he walked, he saw the Asur watching all this from the side of the ship, and he waved to them in a friendly and cordial manner.
"I was worried that you wouldn't welcome us." Marlene made a witty remark, playing with humor.
"Then you guys go back." When Daxus said this, his hand changed from waving to waving away.
Marlene laughed dryly, then raised her hand, lifted the hem of her cyan skirt, and placed her other hand lightly on the side of the boat. At this moment, her manners were less elegant, revealing a capable and resolute spirit, as if she was no longer a noble lady, but a sailor who had experienced many storms. She jumped lightly with her legs, swung her body and neatly crossed the side of the boat, landing steadily, the hem of her skirt slightly lifted in the wind, and the movement was done in one go, without any delay.
"She's gone..."
"what colour?"
"It seems that Ms. Marlene couldn't resist the attraction of this land after all?" This time it was Darkus' turn to laugh dryly. He really didn't see it, and even if he did, there was no need to say it. When Marlene walked towards him, he stretched out his arms and said in a slightly teasing tone.
"This place is indeed a little different." Marlene smiled faintly, her eyes sweeping towards the distant buildings and this foreign land she had never set foot in, with a hint of hidden expectation and curiosity on her lips. She then responded to Dacus's hug, and whispered in Dacus' ear, "Is there a place for me?"
"If you wish, Ms. Marlene, but I do not recommend it."
"Oh?"
Daxus did not respond, but hugged Adeanna who came over.
"Sorry, there are only five places available, and I think she is more suitable than you." After finishing the cordial greeting, he pointed at Adeanna and said to Marlene. "It's just as I guessed, so what's my position in your heart?" Marlene nodded, and at the moment of nodding, a trace of unnoticed sadness flashed in her eyes.
"From what I know, you are destined to become the Patriarch of the Emerald Sea Family, so... the Secretary of the General Affairs Office? The Director of General Affairs? Working from home? Living and working very close to each other?"
"Can you be more specific?" Marlene showed a curious expression and spread out her right hand.
"The General Treasury is responsible for taxes and revenue collection, and also serves as a court for economic cases and large transactions. It is one of the main departments and important officials of the court." Daxus explained patiently, then looked at Marlene with a playful look.
In layman's terms, it means the Minister of Finance. However, the elves have their own way of doing things. After reversing and loading the elven court style pack, he will definitely not be called the Minister of Finance anymore.
"It suits you." Adeanna said to Marlene after understanding what she heard.
"Indeed, it's very close, just outside the door." Marlene nodded again, but this time, there was a gleam in her eyes.
"Are you interested?" Daxus looked at Adianna and extended his right hand.
"Of course, as a believer of Matheran, it's my honor." Adeanna smiled and held the hand that Dacus handed over. It was different from what she expected when she came here. She thought of countless situations, even death and imprisonment. Very smooth was also in countless situations, but she didn't expect it to really happen. Then, she and Dacus hugged again, and this hug was more natural than the last time.
Sieglin and Finarfin, who were watching this scene from a distance, were completely dumbfounded. They came from different families in the Kingdom of Yvresse, far away from the mainland of Ulthuan. But they were in the same circle and knew Marin from the House of the Emerald Sea and Aedanna from the House of Cosqui. There was no reason for them not to know each other, as they were both of higher status than them.
In their circle, there is a consensus that Marin will become the head of the Emerald Sea Family in the future, and Siglin is still a relative of Marin, one generation older than Marin. Adeanna's position is relatively awkward. Adeanna is the eldest daughter and has younger brothers, but her status is also prominent, which is unquestionable.
And now...
"What's going on?" Huoha kept watching, but it felt awkward no matter how he looked at it. He found an opportunity and whispered to Maranul.
The last time he saw the Maranul brothers was at the farewell ceremony when he first commanded the fleet back to Naggaroth during his expedition to Asheril. This time, he had only arrived here in the morning, and at first he thought the Maranul brothers were here to greet him, but it turned out not to be the case...
And things have been moving towards the edge of his cognition. First, the general of the Asur Navy appeared inexplicably. Then the high priest from Lauren Loren? He heard his lover mention this matter, and he also asked his lover if there was any further possibility, but his lover just sighed and shook his head. Now, a group of Asur came to the port where the Black Ark gathered on an eagle ship. His nephew, the rising star of the family, the Witch King's trusted Witch King's Hand, hugged Asur.
"Guests are coming." Maranul stood there without any thought of the past and responded indifferently, but then he said in a serious tone, "My uncle, times are changing and becoming different from before. You have to... learn to adapt." He said this not only to his uncle, but also to the other two.
Just like planting, planting, blooming, and bearing fruit, thanks to Dacus's planting, it has now bloomed and he has gained some harvest. Finnubar responded to him and expressed full trust in him. In just a few words, the speculation was completed. In his opinion, this is speculation, not putting all eggs in one basket, not trading. At the moment of the hug, he had a strange feeling, something was wrong, very wrong. If he tried harder, it seemed that it would soon bear fruit? Relying on diplomacy to achieve diplomatic victory?
When Marlene asked: Is there a place for me?, he knew what Marlene meant. Marlene had her eyes on the high priest seat and wanted to take one. But he always thought that Marlene... in CK Eltharion's words, Marlene was not suitable for a court position, such as a betting registrar or chief almsman, and was more suitable to join the cabinet and become the chief financial officer.
In addition to what he thought, there were many other factors, such as Marlene's spellcasting ability. To become a high-level priest of the Stormweaver Cult, there was a threshold. First of all, one had to have spellcasting ability. Kaeya and Beloda were both high-level spellcasters, proficient in the Wind of Aegir, and had already stepped into the legendary realm. All they needed was time and opportunity. Marlene was lacking in magic attainments... not just a little bit.
As for the others, he couldn't say for sure. There was nothing to say about Belloda, a legitimate native of Kosqui, plus the current Aideanna. In other words, the King of Kosqui occupied two and a half high-ranking priests? Half belonged to Kaia, who was Ainir, the lord of the Lauren Loren Storm Zone, but the Van Maris family could be traced back to the Kingdom of Kosqui.
Kaeya himself considers himself to be Ainir, and has no interest in returning to Ulthuan. But the general direction seems to be... like many times, it is not important what you think, but what everyone thinks. The composition of Belodha is also complicated at present. The Druki who are not in the circle see her as Asur. When her identity is exposed in Ulthuan, the Asur will see her as a traitor, and she is not a human being inside and outside...
There were originally five seats for high priests, but Daxus didn't want to increase the number to six, seven, eight, nine, or ten. In his plan, the elves would have five regions in the future, namely Ulthuan, Asheril, Orbion, Elsin Arwen, and Nehekhara. Five priests would be in charge of each region. As for the name change, we'll talk about it later, there's no rush now.
This situation should not have happened. Among the five seats, two are destined to belong to Druch. To be more specific, one is from Clar Karond, which is a must, and the other is from Karl Karond. Sorry, there is no chance for Nagarond and Hag Graef, he has to find the replacement from other places.
The other was Kaia, who came from Elsin Alvin to Chapeyuto to authenticate her identity and witness everything, so she had no reason not to come. She was the first high-ranking priest, with strength, status, value, and family, so Duruchi and Asur could not say anything.
According to the current situation and future development, the Storm Zone where she is located will become a transit point, that is, Duruchi will transport the goods of Asheril to the Storm Zone, and the Asur will transport the goods back to Ulthuan from there. Anureil Peninsula is definitely not an option, as there are all kinds of people there, and the Asur come from various kingdoms. Sooner or later, trading there will get you caught.
Chapeyuto is also possible. He was the one who let the eagle ship that Marin and the others took in. But he didn't want to do that. It was meaningless. He had many purposes for trade, and money was the least important of them. In addition to Chapeyuto, Zahuitak was also suitable. The distance was short and it was convenient for both sides, but it was also meaningless. The most important thing was that the Lizardmen didn't collect taxes.
Setting up the transit station in the storm zone can increase Kaeya's voice. It is a transit, not smuggling. Taxes must be paid during the transaction. To put it more bluntly, Daxus can disgust Marest.
Politically, you can increase the influence of Druki and Asur. In the process of transit, you can pull Ainir back to the embrace of the elven family, thereby weakening Marest's influence. When the reading bar reaches a certain value, you can click on some decisions that Marest cannot resist, such as reorganizing the political structure of Laurent Loren. It is really a sweet poison that you have to eat. Of course, this is the best result. Even if it does not happen, it is good to prevent Ainir from being so isolated. Economically, Druki and Asur will also provide Ainir and the three border families with the materials they need.
Belloda has followed him all the way and made a lot of efforts. Besides, the relationship and the value of united front are there, so it is reasonable to give him one.
There is still one position left. According to the political balance, this position should be given to the Kingdom of Itain or the Kingdom of Yvresse, but there is no way...Edeanna's identity is there, and the value of united front is too high, too high. Who made the proportion of Cosqui sailors in the kingdoms of Ulthuan so high?
And out of friendship, it is appropriate to make Aedanna a high priestess.
The inheritance model of the Asur nobles is very vague and depends on the actual situation. The current heads of the Emerald Sea family are the two daughters, Marin and Alicia. Alicia married King Alasya, the father of the Tai brothers. After her sister got married, Marin was embarrassed. This is also one of the reasons why she stopped being a lover with Ke Haiyin after becoming the head of the family. If the Emerald Sea family wants to continue, they have to find a son-in-law.
Adeanna is the eldest daughter, a bit like Alexius' eldest daughter, Anna, who brags about her father, but she doesn't have a brother named John, only two brothers who are bad fathers and bad sisters. With a son, inheriting the family is destined to have nothing to do with her. The monastery or political marriage is the best choice, so... and the Storm Weaver Cult has no rules against marriage. When she becomes a high-ranking priest, she can expand the influence of the family and directly jump out of the five elements. She can freely choose her marriage with her superior status...
Something was wrong, very wrong.
Daxus felt that if the current situation continued, it would be hard to say. Finnubar was debuffed by him, and it was hard to say whether he could become the Phoenix King. In addition to Finnubar's inner decision, he had to work hard in this process and properly manipulate the politics of Ulthuan. His earliest design was to surround Anaheim and attack the reinforcements, attract the Asur navy to come over, and then fight a decisive battle with it.
Maybe...Druchi and Asur will not engage in a large-scale naval battle? Wherever the Druki navy goes, a large number of Asur navy surrender? Another internal and external cooperation? Taking Lothern without bloodshed, the gate to the inner sea is wide open, and Druki starts with a great advantage.
He thought for only a moment and looked towards the side of the eagle ship. He saw that except for three guests getting off the ship, the other Asur sailors were looking at him with complicated eyes. There was confusion, puzzlement, doubt and worry in their eyes. Obviously, his appearance caused strong psychological changes in the Asur sailors.
Fortunately, these sailors were the ones who followed Finnubar to Elsin Arwen. He remembered some of their faces. He suddenly had a bad taste in his mouth. What would the Heirs of Matheran do if they saw him? This Brotherhood Chapter from Cosqui claimed that they were the chosen ones of the Lord of the Abyss. Was it a true Li Kui meeting a false Li Kui?
Soon, he shifted his attention and looked at a passenger who got off the ship. He knew the passenger, but he did not say hello or give a warm hug. He just looked at him quietly, waiting for him to speak first.
"I come here on Hoeth's orders."
After hearing this, Dacus took a half step forward and stretched out his right hand. (End of this chapter)
