Chapter 1165 87. If the elves don’t want it, find the rat men
Annan froze in place.
Even without looking back, he could still imagine the sarcasm and ridicule on the faces of the guests behind him.
"The Elf Royal Court..."
The old elf elder was still saying something, but Annan could no longer hear anything. When he regained consciousness, the elder and the guests They had left, and he was the only one standing around.
"Annan..." Tedder came over, apologetic, "I didn't expect it to be like this."
She thought that the Presbytery would separate Annan and Aidan, and the connivance these days was proof. Still thinking about it...
"It doesn't matter, the elves don't want to form an alliance, and it doesn't matter if they play with my simple feelings... I can still form an alliance with the ratmen."
Teddel showed a bitter smile, and Ren Annan spoke angrily and handed him the juice in his hand.
"I'm serious." Annan said as he took the juice.
Annan is not an idiot who knows nothing about politics, although he is indeed too naive sometimes...
But he can see the consequences of the elves' "betrayal" - whether it is the victory of the Kingdom of Rekaner or peace. The ambiguity of the elves will disappear with the announcement of non-alignment.
Annan and his Free City will become a laughing stock. When other people talk about Liberty City, some people will say "the city of champion warlocks", some people will say "the city-state rich in magical images", and some people will say "the city of rebellious warlocks", but more people will say "The force that the elves refused to ally with".
At this time Annan turned to find a new ally, and the ridicule remained. But if it were a Skaven, the ridicule would be transferred to the Elves.
"Calm down..."
"I'm calm, you started it first." Annan shook his head and took a sip of juice.
The juice has a fermented taste, not as strong as wine, and tastes good. Annan took another sip: "You should know how long I have been preparing for this alliance and how much effort and sacrifice I have made. But look..."
The black eyes fell with disgust on the elven elders standing together in twos, twos and threes.
“These old guys still arrogantly rejected me just because I am human.”
“We still have a chance...”
"Ten more years or fifty years? Elves are immortals, but humans are not."
Teddel still wanted to stay, and his bright eyes that made it difficult to say any words of rejection looked at Annan: "I Don't want us to become enemies..."
"It's up to you." Annan said seriously, "You will regret it..."
"You are drunk," she said.
“No.”
In fact, it's a little bit...
Annan felt that his face was heating up, but his mind was as clear as ever.
"Don't worry, I'm only targeting those old guys. You, Irelanze, and the night elves are still my friends."
What else does Tadel want to say? , interrupted by Annan.
"Tedel, you and I both know that it is not me who can make the decision, but the Elders."
Tadel felt sorry. The elves on her side felt that she chose Annan because his power was not strong and easy to control. But she really believed that an alliance with Annan would bring new life to the long-dormant Elf Court...< br>
Put away your worries about gains and losses. Thinking on the bright side, at least they didn't turn against each other.
"Then enjoy the celebration, I hope the next celebration can clear away your haze..."
"I'm going back."
Annan is obviously not familiar with it Tedder, who was outside the rules, said: "You have vetoed the alliance. If I stay in the royal court for one more day, I will be laughed at for one more day. It is better to go back to develop the territory and find new allies."
"Sorry..."
"No need to apologize, I'm sorry for you too." Tedder was puzzled, Annan smiled and said: "I won't pretend anymore, let's show off, I also want to cultivate my own World Tree. ”
Like the most beautiful flowers blooming, Tedder smiled.
“I wish you success.”
She thought Annan was joking, and only Skeleton King knew how true Annan's words were.
"So the heroic treatment you receive these days is actually the compensation given to you by the elves."
Annan, who was standing next to the Skeleton King with juice in his hand, was helpless: "I thought you would comfort me. Me.”
“Frustration is also a part of life”
“I know, it’s just...”
Annan pulled out the speech he had carefully prepared all night... shook his head, and stuffed it into the juice glass as waste paper.
The juice soaked the speech, and the dense fonts on the paper gradually blurred.
"Are you really planning to form an alliance with the rat people?"
Annan cast a spell, opened the portal, and returned a brief "Alliance failed, prepare to go home" before closing the portal again.
The elf mage who was staring at the celebration withdrew his gaze.
"Why not?" Annan replied to the Skeleton King, "Rat people are full of treasures. The black-haired rat has no intelligence and has a strong reproductive capacity. It is more suitable for coolies than the skeletons that need to be purified. The brown-haired rat has no request, just give him food and shelter. You can do it for a lifetime. The gray-haired rat is smart, exotic, and can use evil energy. "
The premise is that it can be controlled. Failure to control it is the new chaos in the north.
Annan has been planning to kill the rat for a long time, otherwise he would not keep Maria and Gale by his side.
"The turmoil of the gods is temporary. Maybe tomorrow, maybe a hundred years, they will return. At that time, even if there is a drop of rat-man blood flowing in the body, it will be controlled by the horned rat."
“There is no road in the world. The more people walk, the more there will be a road. I believe there are always more solutions than difficulties.”
It's just a god, it doesn't sound like anyone else. After raising little spiders and silly cats for so long, the gods can't turn their backs on them, right?
Maybe the turmoil in the gods actually weakened Liberty City.
One day in the future, the gods will return to their throne, and little... Rose, the Spider Queen, will bring her dark elves to surrender. Silly... Cat and Midnight Girl will bring Cat and... Forget it, just him. .
At that time, there will be two gods, spider and cat, in Little Free City.
"Hey..."
Annan laughed out loud.
Tadel, who had been paying attention to him from a distance, thought to himself that it seemed that Annan's mood had recovered from his depression...
The Stun Ratman was Annan's first target, but Annan I also have some friendship with the Rat King of Thrane's ratmen, so I can give it a try without spending any money.
Looking around, Annan found the Rat King in the corner of the banquet, who looked like he was about to eat a royal palace, and walked over to say hello.
"Hey, Rat King, I'm here to say goodbye to you."
...
The news of the alliance’s failure was sent to the city lord’s palace.
After hearing the guard’s report, Olmedo was speechless for a long time.
Fortunately, Olmedo did not publicize what Annan said yesterday.
"Is Annan okay?"
"Master Annan closed the door after finishing speaking..." The guard was full of anger.
"He doesn't even want to stay outside for a while..." Olmedo shook his head, thinking he had seen through Annan, "Tell the officials the news and ask them to cancel the celebration ceremony."
