Chapter 2540 Phoenix Legend


After quickly thinking about the joints, Soshyan said to Old Walker in a very solemn tone:

“Thank you very much for telling me this, Lord Walker, you are a close friend of Orod and also a As a friend of the Lexie family, you are naturally considered my elder. The Eternal Royal Court will treat you as a distinguished guest and open its doors to you. If you need my help with anything in the future, you can enter the royal court at any time.”

Old Walker smiled and knocked the ashes of his cigarette, and said sadly:

"As people get older, many things will gradually fade away. Even though I drank from the Fountain of Youth, I will still age, and this feeling will get worse and worse. It’s getting stronger and stronger, and maybe it won’t be long before I return to the arms of my ancestors. What I’m telling you, just think of it as an old man’s chatter. Orod is a legend, and his story doesn’t even exist for his descendants. It's a pity to know. I'm actually very lucky to find you before returning to my ancestors. Soshyan, I hope Orod's story can give you some inspiration. I can see that the dual identity puts a lot of pressure on you. And troubled, the test you face is much more severe than Orod, but as Orod said, sometimes you don’t need to care too much about your own race, you are you, just do what you think is right, The galaxy is cold and dark, but there is also friendship, justice and justice that transcend race."

Soshiyan nodded.

"I will definitely remember it in my heart, Master Walker. Speaking of which, I found the secret chamber of spiritual bones left by Orode in the family cemetery. He left some images in it, but they did not mention you. Otherwise, I should have Let’s talk to you.”

Walker laughed and said helplessly:

“He has this kind of character. He has a cunning and vicious mouth, but he is very emotional in his heart. He hoped to get me involved in his affairs again. In fact, I didn't want to go back to Yinxin that much. He kept encouraging me to leave, saying that I was hindering his romance. Afterwards, I guessed that he might have discovered or I feel something, just want me to leave these disputes related to him."

After saying that, Old Walker fell into silence, just smoking slowly, but Soshyan could see the expression on his face. Pity.

Perhaps letting his best friend face life and death alone is the guilt of this old Hearthborn

Then Soshiyang wanted to change the subject with something. After pondering for a moment, he said slowly:

"It was proposed by representatives of the Great Sorian Alliance before."

Old Walker waved his hand vigorously. , pulled out the cigarette holder from his mouth, coughed, and said:

"Ahem. You don't need to care about these things. I never care about the alliance's business affairs, but I can guess that, after all, business The essence is to ask for a high price and pay the money on the spot. You can negotiate according to your own ideas."

Soshiyang put his hands on the table and tilted his body slightly in the direction of Old Walker.

"Master Walker, if I want the Royal Court and the Hearthborn to form a true alliance, what conditions are needed?"

Old Walker seemed to know that he would mention this, so he picked up the cigarette holder and smoked it, but then he found the pipe There was no tobacco left in the bag, so I groped around a few times and took out a small green bag with a symbol embroidered on it.

Opening the bag and twisting some tobacco from inside, Old Walker lowered his head and tinkered with the pipe while replying calmly:

". The number of days since the ancestors left the earth's mother star with the ancestral core. For thousands of years, the Wotan race has maintained the independent structure of each alliance. Therefore, Wotan is not an empire. We do not have a unified country. In other words, each alliance is a country, and the clans within the alliance are small countries. , this is what human beings used to be like.”

“The furnace descendants are also human beings?”

"In a sense, yes."

After pressing the tobacco, Old Walker put his right index finger into the pipe, and then a stream of green smoke came out of it. A puff of smoke.

“But it’s meaningless. The human empire, which has become stubborn, sick and full of persecutory paranoia, will not accept it. The Wotans who witnessed the many atrocities and massacres committed by the empire against other human civilizations during the Great Crusade Neither will accept it."

"So, what if the Royal Court wants to establish a true alliance with the Great Sorian Alliance?"

"For a businessman, the first thing is. The first commandment is to never personally participate in wars. Providing military services is one thing, but participating in wars as a political entity is another thing. No Wotan alliance will get involved in the wars of other races. Of course, if it is Employment is another concept.”

"What if my enemies hire Hearthborn to deal with me?"

Old Walker raised an eyebrow, then smiled:

"They are probably not as rich as you, and neither are Hearthborn. Cooperating with the evil demons of the Supreme Heaven, and the scum of Comoros have no credibility and business ethics, and have long been blacklisted by major alliances. Ada's trade is very profitable, and no alliance will be willing to cooperate with the king. "What if I want to hire a large number of Iron Oaths at once?"

Soshiyang narrowed his eyes and said with a sense of confidence:

"All the Iron Oaths of the Great Sorian Alliance!"

"Ouch"

Old Walker exclaimed Sound, smash the cigarette holder.

“There are nearly 300,000 Furnace and Ironborn here, and what is needed is the wealth of the country.”

"Money is not the problem. The important thing is, if needed, can I hire someone?" After a moment of silence, Old Walker replied in a slightly dry voice:

"It can be Okay, but it may not just be a matter of money."

Soshiyang smiled slightly.

“I know that if it is really needed, I will come up with an offer that the alliance cannot refuse. So in this way, other alliances can also provide the Iron Oath to the Royal Court?”

"Business and trade are free, this is the second article of the ancestral contract."

"I understand, thank you, Master Walker, and please stay in the royal court for a longer time, so that I can do my best to the landlord. Friendship."

After saying that, Soshyan stood up and wanted to ask someone to arrange a residence for Old Walker in the palace, but suddenly he thought of a question and sat down again.

"Master Walker, speaking of which. Since Orod caused so many troubles in Comoros, why didn't I seem to have heard of this name when I went to Comoros? It's because it was too long ago. Has it been forgotten?”

“This is just part of it. The main reason is that before entering Comoros, he suggested that in order to prevent trouble in the future, it is best for us to use pseudonyms.”

"I see, then what's his pseudonym?"

Old Walker exhaled a puff of smoke, forming the outline of a phoenix spreading its wings in the air.

"In human language, his name is Phoenix, and in Ada language it is Phoenix."

"Phoenix."

Soshiyan blinked.

"What about you?"

"I"

Old Walker coughed lightly, picked up the wine glass and took a long sip, then took a long breath, with a look of nostalgia on his face.

"The pseudonym I gave myself was Gotrek."

Then he suddenly slapped his head.

"Oh, after talking so much, I forgot about the real thing. You see, people are no longer useful when they are old."

As he spoke, he held the pipe in his mouth, groped back and forth on his body with his hands, and then he didn't know where to start. Na took out a collar, and then a piece of well-preserved spirit bone, and put these two things on the table.

Soshyan picked it up and looked at it curiously, and found that the collar seemed to be made of some kind of animal leather. It was nothing special, but there was a name permed on it - Victor.

"Victor"

Soshiyang frowned and looked at Hearthborn.

"It's not the one I think of, is it?"

The old Hearthborn nodded.

"It's the one you want."
