    The back-and-forth wrangling lasted for more than a month, until both the Elf and Kumara became impatient and demanded that it be drafted as soon as possible. Essien took the initiative to give in and confirmed the escort team and route, reception etiquette and other requirements.  There were some rumors within Essien attacking the new Prime Minister, Duke Carlton, for his inaction. Only those who truly knew the truth understood that since the new emperor insisted on attending the meeting in person, a more solid rear was necessary, so it was delayed for a month.  For the entire Saraf, the situation that had been brewing for a long time finally unfolded. A war that should have had no suspense was completely overturned. The two military powers were defeated and suffered a huge defeat. It was really surprising.  Various rumors spread rapidly, and the common denominator is that they exaggerate Tiya's sorcery, the rain of fire from the sky, or the big trees that prey on people. This demonized image makes it difficult for people who are accustomed to cutting down trees and catching slaves from the forest to adapt.  Gallan Nord also showed a tough stance. The buffer zone of 50 Surrey at the forest border was already patrolled by elves.  Any human being who logs, hunts, or collects medicine will be expelled for entering the country.  "When the news of the four-nation talks came out, anyone with any brains understood that this ancient race was about to rise.  Not all places are like Pilsen. The newspaper industry is developed, and information in more areas is obscured. This makes many people who are trying to track the trajectory of the elves' revival scratch their heads and move closer to the Tia Forest.  The talks have not yet begun, but the former battlefield has already been cleaned up by people with ulterior motives.  The Xigang Agreement is one year and seven months long, midsummer.  Kay looked askance at Ashewal, who was restless and squirming around, as if he was not sitting in a carriage but holding his head against the sun like a guard outside.  "My Majesty, are there any nails under your seat?" "I still don't feel comfortable with it so many people took a detour for three more days just to keep me from bumping. The sun is so scorching." "Let outsiders see the emperor.  If Luan Jia is jolted by the rocky road, then other people's comments will be more vicious. This is a matter of the emperor's majesty Weren't you a prince before? It should be natural to enjoy serving." Kai asked.  The space in the Luan Jia is very spacious. The third person present, the emperor's shadow warrior Charlene, explained: "In fact, His Majesty's previous life was relatively frugal." She fed her lover some ice-cold grapes, and Ashewal pinched  Holding her broad-jointed palm, their gazes were hot and tender.  Since her master successfully crowned this powerful warrior with eight-pack abs, she no longer needs to continue her dangerous work. With their love, she can gain formal fame and status. Ashewal even considered making Charlene the queen.  .  But Carlos dissuaded him.  For Charlene, who can only move her fists, performing the duties of the mother of a country is a kind of torture. She prefers to be by her side, even if she has no status.  The little mage looks a little sour. She is gentle and obedient, sharing weal and woe. She can conquer a street by herself, and feels very safe in her arms. Such a woman is perfect except for the poor touch.  he thought.  What would happen if Mina was replaced?  If he asked to be fed iced grapes, the shrewd little girl would most likely throw the newly learned frost ray in his face.  In the evening, the team camped by a river. Ashewal stood by the water and asked: "Where does this river lead?" Charlene said: "Going ahead is the Solin River Valley, and then the tributaries converge. It flows straight into the forest."  Some people were being driven away by the guards in the distance. Ashewal said: "What do those people do?" "Cleaning the battlefield." Kai covered his head with a hood and walked over and said.  "After the war, many people went to the battlefield to collect weapons, arrows and even corpses in order to find out the details. However, most of the people who entered the Thorin Valley turned into corpses. When the elves ambush Essien's army, they drove some kind of terrible aquatic monster into the battlefield.  The river valley is impassable now. "Ashewal frowned: "Are we going to take a detour? Can't you drive away or kill that thing?" "Maybe, but I don't recommend it." He said quietly.  Pointing to the sky.  Ashewal and Charlene looked up and saw a bird hovering over the camp, neither landing nor chirping.  "After following us for two days, it's better to keep a low profile." So the team bypassed the river valley and approached the forest from the northwest.  They finally reached the border, and Ashewal poked his head out of his car to watch.  A three-meter-thick grass strip composed of several kinds of fine flowers stretches across the front of the eyes. The color is very eye-catching and stretches to the end of the line of sight. The team greeted by the elves is standing behind the grass strip.  He was stunned for a moment before he realized that this was the "national border" of the elves.  "And Kay stood up and looked at the huge thing in the depths of the forest that was obscured by mist and water vapor, like a mountain rising from the center of the forest, hazy and shrouded under the veil.  The magical aura there is astonishingly strong, but it is of two different types than his white gem.  Naturally, Ashewal did not need to come to the negotiations in person, but the aristocratic official in charge of diplomacy was livid. For the first time, he realizedElven diplomacy.  The elf was a head taller than him, and his gaze was entirely directed down the bridge of his nose. His gentle contempt was extremely irritating. He was sure that the other person understood Common Language, but he insisted on speaking in Tiya, making the translator sweat all over his head.  Soon, the noble officials who were accustomed to smoothing over their hair became furious, while the elves remained silent and only responded with disdainful eyes.  The first collision resulted in a deadlock, and the noble official proposed to return unless the elf was willing to apologize for his rude behavior.  For such an official who "knew the general picture", Ashewal directly replaced him.  The successor understood the emperor's anger and concern for the overall situation, and showed shamelessness in negotiating.  So the journey continued, and the large army was asked to stop at the national border. Ashewor only brought an envoy of 150 people, including guards, nobles, and followers.  Such a scarce force was closely monitored along the way.  On the road outside the forest, none of Ashewor's charioteers came in, they were all on horseback.  The elf who led the way even told the diplomats that there were many traps in the nearby woods and they should not enter at will.  The official thought it was a good intention, but when asked, the elf sneered and said that they were all left by the slave catchers. They were so dense that they have not been cleaned up yet, which made the official choke. The Guild of the Ear-cutters belongs to Essien, although it has been changed since the Three Kingdoms War.  The storm has dispersed.  Ashewal observed this foreign land curiously, then frowned and whispered to the commander in a low voice: "I seem to think too simplistically." "Indeed." Kaye observed each Tia,  The stares they gave him back made a thorn in his back.  "What Tia showed was not hostility, but a deeper hatred. To resolve such racial conflicts, I am afraid it cannot be reached with a piece of paper." The two looked at each other.  An underage mage and a good-natured emperor, neither of them have experienced enough changes to consider things from the perspective of cold national interests. If it were the Duke of Carlton, he would only want to reconcile or not reconcile the different interests of Essien, but  The two men try to settle their feud.  The outer road is simple and short, and the trees become denser as you go inward. The elf led the envoys around until they were dizzy.  In fact, Kai really wanted to tell them that there is no need to take a detour. Even if he takes us through it all, we will not be able to find the way to Ludu next time.  After walking for a day, we changed the water route in the evening and walked along a calm and beautiful river.  The envoys breathed a sigh of relief. Walking in the forest for a day was more tiring than running around Essien. There were few neat roads, and the bluestones were covered with slippery moss. The elves warned them that it was best not to ride horses and touch them.  That's bad for snakes that climb treetops.  As a result, the nobles didn't listen and were bitten. The elf's half-smiling expression when he handed over the antidote made them curse for days.  The forest at night seems as peaceful as heaven. The elves' boats are all small and exquisite, with high tails. Seventeen or eight small boats sail along the current silently.  Looking down at the water, the stars are reflected, as quiet as the night sky.  The trees on both sides were obscured by night fog, hazy and mysterious, with only the occasional flash of fluorescent insects.  Ashewor walked out of the cabin and saw Kay standing on the side of the ship. He no longer focused on the shadow in the distance, but stared at the shore.  "What are you looking at?" Kai looked back and found that no one was watching him for the time being, so he used [Blurred Vision] on the emperor.  Ashewor's eyes lit up, and the dark world turned light blue. He turned around curiously. He rarely had the opportunity to experience the magic of the life master.  "On the left, between the two trees." Ashewor stared at it, and saw a smooth black panther moving along the river bank at the same speed as the fleet. The elf on its back moved up and down with the leopard, but there was no trace of it.  sound.  The elf turned around and found someone on the boat looking at him. He immediately patted his mount and disappeared into the trees.  "It's livelier here than it looks." "WellYe Phosphorus, how do you observe Tia's magic?" Ashewal asked in a low voice.  Kay shook his head, "I haven't seen the other party's spell caster yet, but I'm sure it's a completely different system from the life master. I'm very curious about how the elves are cultivated." Ashewor pursed his lips and said, "What do you mean by the master?  Is there any plan for the future of the life master? "He has been looking forward to Essien having a magic force, but in the past few months, Kay has had almost no substantive actions.  "Still thinking, Ashewal. In fact, the search for apprentices can start at any time, but I am thinking about what kind of operation mode to use. Of course I can copy the White Tower, but the life master is different from the scholar and requires more resources.  , the more you think about it, the journey of cultivation will be more cruel. I don¡¯t want to create a nondescript aristocratic academy.¡± Cruel¡­ The sight of his mentally retarded brother¡¯s death echoed in front of Ashewal¡¯s eyes.  The Emperor pushed away the image, remembering Kay's help to him and Carlos's warning.  He smiled unnaturally and said: "You helped me fulfill my ideal, and I will help you fulfill it. This is my promise as a man." Kai turned his head, and the smiles of the two of them rippled in the dark night.  Outbreak?The ranger of a certain ship shouted, and the two of them noticed a ripple on the river approaching rapidly, about ten Sami away from their ship.  Kay pulled Ashewal back and held the wand in his robe.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
