Chapter 1097 19. Good impression

"Praise the World Tree, bestow..."

Feeling the gaze, Ellie stopped blessing, opened her eyes, and found that many tribesmen were watching Himself and Annan.

Fioria and Calandra also stopped one after another, the holy coats on their bodies gradually faded, staring at Ellie's feet and Annan's tongue.

"It's not what you think..." Annan explained palely.

"What kind?" Fioriya's face was expressionless.

After visiting Liberty City for six days, they already knew about Annan’s rumors. For a warlock, this is nothing, and Annan is indeed very talented.

But why even Elder Ellie, the invisible leader of the mission...

"Did you touch something or eat something?" Ellie asked curiously.

Calandra pursed her lips, and Fioria asked the elves to go out first.

"I just ate an acorn..."

"A companion acorn." Ellie answered.

“What is that?”

“Planted together with ancient oak trees, it will form a patch of grass, which can increase the chance of birth of ancient oak people.”

“I eat This should be it..."

"You're lucky. Very few people can grow plants from eating companion acorns. Do you want to cancel it?"

"Please!"

Growing plants on your body is fun, but it's too easy. It caused a misunderstanding...such as the expressions of the high elf elders and wind elf elders at this moment.

Are they really companion acorns?

The light spots of natural magic fell on Annan, and the plants on his hands and tongue fell off naturally. Annan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the other two elders who looked strange: "What's wrong with you?"

"I..." Fioria could barely maintain her iceberg appearance.

"Tomorrow is the last day, it's time to talk about the alliance."

Kailandra's words attracted Annan's attention: "Have you decided?"

" Just preliminary discussions.”

……

On the seventh day of the elf envoy's visit, preliminary negotiations for an alliance were launched.

In the conference hall, Annan, Itilia, and Olmedo were sitting on one side of the long table, and Ingrid was standing next to her holding a stack of documents.

On the other side are the high elf elder Kelandra, the wind elf elder Fioria, and the wood elf elder Ellie.

Annan thought that there would be elders with higher status from the royal court, but the preliminary negotiations were really just preliminary negotiations: both sides just elaborated on the various issues that the alliance would face: such as trade, cultural exchanges, and facing hostility. Whether the forces cooperate in fighting, share intelligence, and each other's status and rights.

Calandra said that Free City should give elves treatment beyond that of citizens. When elves violate the "Free City Code", they have no right to imprison them and must hand them over to the royal court.

Fioria said that Free City should allow elves to settle and engage in politics in Free City.

Ellie said that Liberty City should plant more trees.

Olmedo agreed to the request of the wind elf elders and wood elf elders on the spot. Even if they didn't say it, Free City would do it. Calandra's request was rejected. It can be temporarily discussed whether criminal elves should be imprisoned, but it cannot be treated as more than a citizen.

It’s Liberty City’s turn. Olmedo said that after forming an alliance, people from Free City would be allowed to go to the Elven Court.

Itilia said that in addition to trade, they should also have some in-depth cooperation, such as opening an academy.

Annan sat next to him like a mascot.

The elves agreed with Itilia and rejected Olmedo: The Elf Royal Court is the pure land of the entire elven clan. No foreigner can set foot except as guests and friends.

Each side had an objection, and the two sides began to argue with each other, refusing to give in to each other.

The Elf Elders believe that Free City can gain a lot of benefits from the alliance. In addition to their reputation, the Elven Court is a powerful ally. In contrast, it is difficult for Liberty City to help them.

Olmedo doesn’t think so. Although Liberty City is currently weak, it has proven its strength by defeating Rekaner. Compared with their strength, their most important thing is their potential, which is the future of Annan with more than a hundred commercial streets across the northern border, the middle land, and the south.

What about ten years from now, fifty years from now, a hundred years from now? At that time, the Elf Court may still be the same as before, but who knows what kind of behemoth Free City will become.

Because of the size and status of the Elf Royal Court, Olmedo can put Free City on the back burner and give in some benefits...but it does not mean that they will become vassals of the elves.

The Empire cannot make Liberty City bow its head, nor can the Elven Court.

Finally, Olmedo made a soul question: "If Liberty City is really useless to the Royal Court, why do you want to ally with us?"

She mistakenly fell into the Elf Court's idea: in addition to fancying the potential of Free City, the underlying reason why the Elf Court ended its thousand-year isolation was that two voices emerged within the Elf Court.

The elves stayed in the Aldo Forest for too long, so long that they lost the battle and lost the elven calendar. All this is because their long lifespan has solidified their thoughts and they are not aware of changes in the outside world.

And the new elf realized it. If it continues to maintain its status quo, the Elf Royal Court is likely to continue to decline.

On the one hand, the rules that have been maintained for tens of thousands of years, and on the other hand, they want to break the old and make changes. These two voices are divided into the old and the young. The sudden disappearance of the gods in the past few years has allowed the Qingzhuang sect to grow.

The two voices became louder and louder, and the differences became more and more obvious. Worried that the Elven Court would be divided, the Council of Elders decided to make changes first: regaining the covenant system.

The old man thought well. They turned their allies into puppets, which not only appeased the Young Zhuang Faction, but did not change the rules.

But the Young and Strong faction is also very smart. They have taken a fancy to Annan and think that Liberty City will not be willing to be a puppet.

Two of the three elf elders are from the young and strong faction - Ellie, who is closest to Annan, is from the old faction.

But that doesn’t mean that Galandra and Fioria will side with Annan. They wear colored glasses... Even so, they have to admit that it is difficult to find the shortcomings of Liberty City.

For example, there is nothing unacceptable for them here.

Although Free City even has dirty...creatures like succubi, ratmen, and goblins. But they only achieved what they claimed to be "regardless of race, just temperament." This sentence is very consistent with the concept of elves.

At the end of the negotiation, they failed to convince anyone, but they did not destroy their relationship.

Forged a deep friendship...not even close to talking about. Turning an enemy into a friend... is not a problem either. At most, the Elf Mission encountered some innocuous minor frictions, conflicts and dilemmas.

In contrast, the things Liberty City does are much more pleasing to the eye than other places.

When it comes to choosing a human force to form an alliance with, their first choice is Free City - for some willful and arrogant elves, a good impression is enough.

Happy times are always short. After completing their mission, it was time for the Elf Mission to return.

Annan felt that the time was too short and not enough to understand Liberty City, but the elves felt that it was enough.

"There are shortcomings everywhere, and we are no exception, so it is enough for us to see enough advantages." The sophistication and open-mindedness shown by Ellie made Annan open his mouth slightly.

"The Elven Calendar celebrations start in two months, Annan, see you then."
