Chapter 21 The Greatest Negotiator

Although the golden colossus is majestic, how dare it fire at its own bridge?I caught the elf's handle, and the secretary stood there with a long face.After a moment of delay, I have finished the final debugging work with my hands hidden behind my back.I turned around and pushed the joystick vigorously, the hull tilted suddenly, a giant statue couldn't stand still, and fell to the deck with a bang.Shaking, shaking, nine masts were ignited at the same time, and the incandescent flames moved, eighteen pairs of thin light wings covering the hillside shook like dragonflies.

Glinda rested her forehead and sighed: "Oh, that's why you sneaked into Golden Wing City."

No way, it's obviously a domineering elf who insists on arresting me!

There was another violent shaking, and the mast of the battleship hit the dome of the crystal screen, which was the false sky made by the elf with crystal plates.

"Don't mess around, you will destroy Golden Wing City." The secretary said hastily.

Wayne whistled at this time, and said in a cheap tone that he didn't know where he learned: "Then quickly remove the barrier, there is an evil undead here, and there is another, crazy paladin, but Don’t be afraid to try again.”

"It's useless to remove the barrier," the secretary said in a deep voice, "Gold Wing City hasn't flown...for 200 years. If you don't care about your own lives, if you don't care about the last things of the elves, there is still no space under the battleship. There is a city of goblins, and those goblins are innocent."

As if trying to prove the elf's point, there was an old and ruined sound between the light wings and the mast, and the main reactor also indicated that it was overheating.Wayne winked at me, and I reluctantly started the emergency landing procedure.

Wayne said loudly: "Lorenzo! If you don't want to die, you can do it. Please politely send us away! Also, hand over all the delicious food from the elves!" After a pause, Wayne strengthened his tone and said, "Although Goblins are small and cute, but I am a crazy paladin."

"The release of the four guests must be authorized by the board of directors."

"Don't talk about the board of directors with me, who has the final say here?" Hmph, I've read the records of the elves before.

"Although he is handsome, he is an evil undead." Wayne added.

"Two crazy kids." Glinda had given up on treatment.

Elf board secretary Lorenzo shook his head in grief and indignation: "Start the interim board procedure."

The two giant statues suddenly disappeared. It turned out that they were just phantoms.The only remaining colossus took two steps back, projecting a light beam with intricate patterns, which condensed into a crystal entity again, and a circular parliament hall appeared on the deck.

Elves in twos and threes came out from the gun positions and under the deck, and there were a few who were not present, replaced by holographic projections.In the empty and large meeting room, there are only sparsely seated in the front two rows.etc!Although I'm often face-blind because I don't socialize too much, it's so obvious that the people sitting in the so-called board of directors are clearly the same group of people as the elf army who arrested us the day before yesterday, and the one sitting upright in the holographic projection, isn't it my brother? The elf accountant at the mouth of the Bollinger Mine?Is this playing tricks on me?

"What you see in front of you," Lorenzo said with a wry smile, "is all the adult males of the blue blood elves. I'm sure you have invaded and borrowed the historical documents of Golden Wing City."

I didn't read it that carefully either.

Lorenzo spoke with a tone like a ballad: "240 years ago, the Golden Wing City was still a real city. She stood on the top of the snow-covered mountains, and there were twelve golden ships moored in the airport. , she shines like a jewel on a crown.

"240 Five years ago, the Knights Templar sent troops to crusade against Golden Wing City in the name of 'abusing the Holy Light'. The proud elves didn't bother to argue with the inferior races, and summoned a crystal wall to wrap the entire mountain in Among them, the fanatics of the Holy Light refused to give up and besieged the city for a long time. During the three-year siege, in order to maintain the defensive barrier, the main reactor of Golden Wing City was overloaded for a long time. She was not originally designed for war. After the accident, Golden Wing City was destroyed by flames."

"That is to say," Francis interrupted thoughtfully, "that is to say, the fall of the first Golden Wing City was entirely due to a technical failure of its own, rather than being breached by the Knights."

Wayne lowered his head and said nothing.

"Inferior races have never stood on golden walls."

"But why are the elves in such a mess?" When encountering the plot of the epic story, Francis immediately switched to the curious baby form: "Don't you have twelve dreadnoughts?"

"The elves have never used weapons of mass destruction against inferior races. To this day, Golden Wing City is still unwilling to make an exception." Lorenzo looked at his colossus again threateningly.

But this still does not make sense, according to the literature, at least one battleship also escaped from the explosion.

"A total of two destroyers were performing cruise missions at the time and were evacuated in time after the accident. Later, due to economic considerations, we dismantled one of them."

What I mean is, two ships escaped, how could there be only about forty people left?

"The two destroyers have a total of 170 nine crew members and 31 passengers, of which only [-] are fertile women."

"Don't the high elves pay attention to women and children first?" Wayne, who hadn't spoken for a long time, asked gruffly.

Lorenzo didn't take it as a disobedience, and only said: "Both are warships, and women usually don't take pride in serving in the army."

"But!" Wayne buried his head lower: "The Knights are obviously changing, and the same thing will never happen again."

"I don't mean to blame anyone." Lorenzo said in a calm tone: "Under the current situation, Golden Wing City cannot participate in any war, whether it is dead or living, if you can understand—"

"If there is anything I can do, I will help." As soon as I uttered this sentence, I regretted it. This is a time of negotiation, a time of asking prices and negotiating conditions, how can I be cowardly?Besides, the Knights have done so many bad things, should I be responsible for all of them?What are you doing to me again?

"We are here for peace," Wayne said in a strangely old-fashioned tone as if he had made up his mind, "If everyone can let go of their prejudice and hatred, maybe a war can really be avoided."

The elves sitting in a row communicated with each other silently for a while using the magic crystal board.

Lorenzo, secretary of the board of directors, spoke again: "The board of directors authorizes me to propose a new motion. Golden Wing City will transfer the four guests to Queen Theta in a manner consistent with etiquette. Ms. Linda has a good relationship with Queen Theda, and if we could sit down and talk openly... as the righteous paladin said, if we had chosen dialogue over hatred in the first place, things might have been different."

Francis whispered, "I feel like I've been caught in a trap. Didn't the elves plan to capture us and give them to Theta from the beginning?"

The witch Glinda has been black-faced from just now.

Lest we disagree, Lorenzo added: "As a gesture of goodwill, the board has decided to serve, er, elves' goodies, upon request."

"I agree!" Wayne exclaimed.
