The Journey of the Demon Hunter - Chapter 1788
It’s like he can never have anything in common with Ada Emin.
“You came too suddenly, I’m sorry that I couldn’t prepare you… tea that suits your taste better.”
“It’s okay, I’m not here for tea.”
Ada was sitting on the bench opposite Zelin, and her portal shocked many people. They all knew what the portal of Francesca was like. Enid would open the portal at a certain location at the entrance of the castle and walk in instead of opening the portal directly inside the castle. This is the consensus between them. Except for the portal in a specific location, everything else that suddenly appears can represent the attacker or some uninvited visitor.
“I understand, didn’t Enid come with you?”
“She went to help Avalak.” Ada said, “Soon, there is still a war waiting for her. I think she may not have the time to come to you before she leaves the battlefield and comes back.”
“War? It is related to wild hunting, isn’t it?” Zelin raised his eyebrows: “Enid once told me about this. You have a dangerous plan for wild hunting.”
“Yes, the division of Ain El is irreparable. The sages who support Avalak believe that the best choice is to use the blood power in Xili to fight against Hoarfrost at this moment. But the people and the soldiers do not Think of it this way, they just want to escape.”
“Everyone wants to survive, it’s normal.”
“They support Eredin, but all they want is to survive, so as long as they are given a way to survive, they will not risk supporting Eredin’s war plan.” Ida made a cutting gesture: “So everything is going well for now. Once the plan is completed, there will be no wild hunting anymore, and your friends who are hunted by wild hunting can rest assured, and even say that people in this world no longer have to worry about the demon spirit knights that appear at the full moon.”
“It sounds like a good plan.” Zelin nodded.
Outside the door of the drawing room, Gnaiya pinched her waist with her hands, slanted her eyes and looked at the open door: “This fox doesn’t know what conspiracy is going on. She, like Enid, never had it in her mind. Will think of something good. If Enid is a bit bad, this fox is bad at ten!”
Hawke raised his eyebrows: “What is the perfect score?”
“Of course it’s ten o’clock.”
“Ah, I didn’t expect your relationship with Ms. Elf to be so good.” Marianne rubbed the tip of her nose: “I thought you had a bad relationship, but your evaluation of her was so high.”
“Is there?” Gnaiya looked suspicious.
“No, let’s go back to the topic just now.” Hawk shook his head: “What do you think she is here for?”
“Probably something Enid didn’t know.” Gnaiya tilted her head and yawned: “She is not a good person, but if you need Zelin to do something, or if you want us to help, she will definitely come in person. , Even if the words that are said make me sound so bored.”
In the living room, Zelin drank saliva and moisturized his throat.
After returning to the castle yesterday, he has been waiting for news from Francesca. It’s just that he didn’t expect that Ada Emin would come here and talk about it with him.
“According to the plan, the survivors of Ayn El will get a piece of land in Azeroth. According to the agreement, that piece of land seems to be called Stranglethorn Vale, a land of no owner. The former owner was either killed or fled. The price is that Ain El must join a covenant, loyal to the leader of the covenant, and fulfill the obligations of war and taxes while receiving land and shelter.”
“I know about it.”
Before Zelin set out to find Avalak, Enid told him that Altea was also there. Altea said that she was going to return to Azeroth with the mission report and mission. This matter. The Alliance seems to value this matter very much. After so many wars and chaos, they desperately need fresh blood to join. The number of humans in Stormwind in the Alliance is only 200,000, and the number of Ayn El far exceeds this number. Although they have been devastated by Hoarfrost, they are still a race that has enjoyed peace for hundreds of years. There are hundreds of thousands of people, distributed in several giant city-states.
They will greatly increase their strength.
Zelin was worried at first whether this would involve the world of demon hunters in some danger. However, Enid said that when it came to Azeroth, Ain El’s identity was not a race of the Demon Hunter World, they were just a group of refugees from Hoarfrost, a group of survivors of the lost world. It has nothing to do with his world now.
“There is only one stumbling block to this plan. Eredin and his red knights will not agree with Ain. El bowing their heads to other races in exchange for survival.”
“I know, so you are going to initiate a coup, right? Kill Eredin and his followers, and support Avalak to come to power and become the new leader?”
“No, there will be a new king coming to power, and the sage can never become a king.” Ada raised the water glass in front of him, lowered his eyes and looked at the half-filled water: “We have extraordinary powers, and the people cannot understand ours. Knowledge and insights, but the longer we stay in this kind of life, the farther we are from the people, the easier it is for us to make decisions that deviate from people’s needs, and we can no longer understand their innocence… And stupidity. Therefore, the sage cannot succeed in the king, and the king will become the link and neutralizer between the sage’s advice and the needs of the people.”
“Interesting theory and political opinion, Ada, but what does it have to do with me?”
“I don’t hope that this coup will turn into a large-scale civil war. Once I can’t solve Eredin in the palace and let him escape to other worlds, he may gather supporters at any time. In the past few hundred In the years, the Red Knights have been following him, and they will not easily give up their loyalty unless their leader dies and there is more important thing that can protect Ain El.”
Ada looked at Zelin, and she was silent for a few seconds: “There is only one thing, I hope you can join this battle to ensure that the plan will succeed.”
“What is this?”
“It’s all good, request? Hire? Entrusted? I only pursue results.” Ada said: “If you can join this battle, I’m sure to kill Eredin in the palace.”
Zelin closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and leaned back on the chair: “…I think you know, I have assassinated the king. But I don’t think you are true… Do you really think my job is to stab the king? I specifically remove the crown and the head underneath?”
“Stop going around with me, Zelin.” Ada looked directly into the eyes of the demon hunter. “Tell me, what do you need to agree to this?”
“What will you promise, Ada?”
“All, as long as it is the price I and Ain Xidi can pay.” The sage did not hesitate.
“I only have one condition.” Zelin said: “I heard that you disagree with Enid’s surrender of the throne to others after this matter is over?”
“After this matter is over.” Ada leaned forward and stretched her tone: “She will become the king of Ain El. She is the only royal bloodline. The people of Alder will not oppose the royal family of the people of the hills. She can choose a regent to stay in Dole Bretanna. Only she can become a king, because she cannot give birth, so she cannot abdicate. Maybe in the future she will be crowned as the emperor of Ain Woododd, that top The Crown had been idle for too long after the Ayn clan escaped from the home planet. She cannot escape. This is the most important moment before the Ayn clan’s revival, and this is her birth responsibility.”
“I have only one condition, Ada.” Zelin repeated again: “When this matter is over, go find a new link and install it on your machine. Give Enid to me, she is mine. This is the reward I am asking for. I can help you once, and then your queen is mine.”
There is no expression on Ada’s face.
After a few seconds.
“If you insist…” She thought about it a bit: “It’s not that you can’t negotiate…”
“Don’t play word games with me, Ada, you know what I mean.” Zelin interrupted the sage’s words: “There is no room for negotiation, and I don’t have so much time to wait. Yes, or not …Give me your answer.”
After half an hour, Ada Emin walked out of the living room.
She ignored the people standing at the door and walked straight out of the castle. A portal appeared in front of her, and soon disappeared with the sage.
Zelin sighed, moved his shoulders, and walked out of the room. Then, he froze for a moment.
“…Why are you all here?”
Hawke and Gnaiya were on the left hand side of the door, and Altea was on the right. She smiled awkwardly, as if she was still not used to this situation. Virginia was sitting on a wooden chair and noticed that Zelin came out, she closed the book, and Amelie was behind her, seeming to be holding a pen to help her record something.
“We are very concerned about what the **** are you talking to her.” Gnaiya asked eagerly: “What the **** did she say? Damn, I couldn’t hear anything just now. That old fox is a sage, very difficult to deal with. Isn’t it? So I called everyone in. If she can help, she will definitely not want to get a bargain here.”
“Ah, don’t worry, there will be no conflict.” Zelin shook his head: “It’s nothing, I’m going to go out in two days…I will be back in about a day, at most two days.”
“Where to go?” Virginia asked, “Do you need anyone of us to accompany you?”
“It’s nothing, just go to Skelliger.” Zelin waved his hand: “Let’s go, let’s eat something first. I’m already hungry. Since Joseph is not there, we have to do it ourselves.”
Chapter 2872 The plan on the other side
After getting used to Joseph’s craftsmanship, this dinner is really unsatisfactory.
Gnaiya likes to make vegetable soup that she is good at. Zelin thought it should be the most common food for adventurers. In the end, her vegetable soup became the best food except Yamily. Altea asked other people if they would like to eat crispy spider legs, and it turned out that most people do not like to innovate in taste. Yamily had been helping Joseph with the kitchen some time ago, but she was responsible for most of it in the end.
But no matter who it is, it is better than Enid cooking.
After having dinner, Zelin decided to go for a walk and move around. He doesn’t like to lie in bed after eating, but it would be too wasteful to keep burning candles.
“You have something on your mind.”
At the gate of the castle, he met Vera. The Demon Hunter still seems to be unfit for life here, or that she has not known any acquaintances except Yusevka. She is not a person who likes to take the initiative to deal with strangers. Among so many strangers, she seems a little uncomfortable.
