Chapter 1840: Chapter 603: Trap? Opportunity? (Part 3)
“My boss understands this principle as well. Whether it’s the Blood Elf royalty or the Night Mothers, they all want to contribute their humble efforts to help Aegean resist the invasion of foreign races!” Roml laughed softly, “Heaven and earth bear witness, everything I’ve said is true.”
Elder Andulan and Ning Yu laughed together.
“We really don’t want to have a war with Florence! We’re all Aegeanians, fighting among ourselves is truly uninteresting! Now the ‘Space-Ti Rift’ has already opened ahead of schedule, and the unusual fish reports from the Sanggan River have also arrived, which proves that the Demon Clan and Sea Clan are coming soon!”
“Coming from your mouth, those words are indeed highly sarcastic!” Ning Yu couldn’t help but retort, “If that’s the case, then Lucian should simply withdraw their declaration of war.”
“Why not we obediently hand over the Underground World to you!” Elder Andulan mocked viciously at the other’s shalessness, “If we do that, you won’t bring powerful allies to trouble us in Florence!”
“No, no, no!” Roml’s words once again stirred Ning Yu and her father’s thoughts into chaos, “For us to cease hostilities isn’t difficult. As long as Florence can et one condition, we can choose to shafully retract the declaration of war. Don’t get it wrong, Lucian doesn’t intend to ask for the Underground World back from Florence!”
“You don’t want the Underground World?” Elder Andulan’s brows almost burst with astonishnt. What else does Florence have that’s more enticing to the fallen elves than the Underground World?
“Yu Wash”?
Sequencer Pearl?
Impossible!
These treasures are top-secret-level equipnt, known only to the true inner circle of Florence. How could outsiders have ways to learn the exact information!
“Then what exactly do the Lucian elves want?” Ning Yu was confused too. Military matters are no child’s play; Lucian elves have already issued a formal declaration of war, and the envoy they sent was killed by Florence’s Tenth Prince. If they were to cease hostilities now, their reputation would suffer imnsely, losing face trendously!
Regardless of whether they’re Drow or Moore, you can call them despicable, low, and shaless, but using derogatory terms like cowardly or timid is incorrect for them; although they’re vile, they still possess valor and pride!
What treasure does Florence hold that can make Lucian elves willing to give up the Underground World? Even losing face, and thus withdrawing their troops and making peace? Elder Andulan and Ning Yu stared fixedly at the handso man, hoping he could provide a reasonable answer.
“What we want is the Red Earth Highland, what we want is this piece of land.” Holding back humorously and silently for a long ti, Roml finally revealed the secret.
Elder Andulan and Ning Yu simultaneously showed a brief flash of uncontrollable anger on their faces, which was quickly concealed.
“Please allow to analyze the pros and cons for you.” Roml admired the noble deanor of the opposite side. If it were that bumbling overlord here, upon hearing this, perhaps he would’ve slapped prospectively.
“Your population in Florence isn’t particularly large, and you have the magic teleportation array. I think in future battles with the Demon Clan and Sea Clan, ordinary citizens will definitely retreat to the Underground World first, because it’s the safest place, am I right?” Roml asked.
“That’s correct!”
“Which ans the true function of the Red Earth Highland is actually a military stronghold!” Roml continued, “If soone claims it’s a city, I think that’s inappropriate, because you’ve been building Combat Towers recently. Clearly, the Red Earth Highland doesn’t provide much space for resident settlent!”
“That’s correct!”
“So, the Red Earth Highland isn’t that important to you, because the Underground World, this vast strategic depth base, is your safe and untroubled rear area!” Roml waved his hand, interrupting Elder Andulan’s attempt to speak, “Please listen to ! I know, as the Beamon overlord and divine authority spokesman, Richard and all of you won’t shy away from the responsibility of resisting foreign invasion! However, even if you give up the Red Earth Highland, you Florentines can still fulfill the duty of resisting the invaders! Because you also have Razor Mountain!”
“That dirt mountain stands a hundred ters high with only one steep path up and down; in terms of terrain, it’s far more advantageous than the Red Earth Highland!” Roml grew more and more excited as he spoke, “We Lucian aren’t asking you to also leave those aerial points behind. When the ti cos, you can move the two Sky Gardens there. With a towering hundred-ter hill city and two aerial fire points, whether it’s the Sea Clan or Demon Clan, they will have more headaches dealing with you!”
Elder Andulan and Ning Yu were speechless.
In fact, even at the ti of conquering the goblin bandits, Richard hesitated about relocating the overlord’s residence to Razor Mountain, because Razor Mountain’s terrain was truly treacherous, fitting the description of a single man holding the pass against ten thousand n.
This plan was canceled because later, Otigha used ‘Earthfire to scorch the city,’ turning the Red Earth Highland into a clay clump, since then the Red Earth Highland has also t the standard of a difficult-to-defend, strategically significant stronghold.
“For you, Florence has two natural fortresses, Red Earth Highland and Razor Mountain! But we Lucian, with our millions of people, have only a simple city built from trees and a mountain cave in the snow to dwell in! Since we’re all facing foreign invasion, if Florence could be generous and gift this perilous fortress to us Lucian elves, I believe past grievances could disappear with the wind!” Roml spoke sincerely, “This is also the intent of all Drow Mothers and Moore royalty, especially now when resisting foreign invasion is of utmost importance! We desperately need a military stronghold that commands advantageous terrain!”
