Chapter 1376: Five Kingdoms' Tacit Understanding, Wings Breeding Resentment

Elder Dewen turned his head to look at the location of the voice, his eyes filled with anticipation; it was a powerful Warlord from the Dwarf Kingdom of Shafeier, who was also the younger brother deeply trusted by the King of Shafeier.

Most crucially, the Kingdom of Shafeier was located beneath the Listar Forest; although it had been ravaged by the Drow and had lost its nation several times, it had been restored several times with the support of Cormanthor.

Did the words of the Shafeier Warlord represent the meaning of Cormanthor? Could it be that Yilisier Mianwang was making compensation for the act of damaging the Mythallar during the duel in the daytime?

The hope that had originally vanished in Elder Dewen was suddenly reignited; he looked expectantly at this foolish dwarf, whom he might not even glance at under normal circumstances, and prayed silently in his heart.

Yet, reality was not as he had imagined, as he heard that Warlord say quite indignantly:

"How profound are the mysteries of the Mythallar? The High Mages of Cormanthor, Yierlan, and Ilfaran have all cultivated in the field of Magic for hundreds of years, and the Holy Hammer Warriors of Danzo can also provide experience in countering Drow and demons; so by what right are the Netherese Mages able to participate in the repair of the Mythallar?"

Hearing this, Elder Dewen's heart went somewhat numb on the spot; how stupid must one be to say such things on this occasion? Because he still held expectations for Yilisier Mianwang, he did not give up on observing him.

At this moment, after this Shafeier Warlord spoke these words, Yilisier Mianwang could not help but knit his brows tightly; it was clear that this was an attempt at flattery that had backfired.

On the other side, Badijiaer had not expected such a dramatic scene to occur just as the meeting was about to end; he could hardly help but want to laugh, but after thinking about it, he held it back.

However, he did not explain anything either, just watching the other party's desperate performance as if watching a play, feeling it was quite interesting.

"Enough!"

Yilisier said in a deep voice, his gaze fixed directly on the Shafeier Warlord; just this momentary display of majesty caused the words the other party was about to continue saying to be stifled back forcibly.

"The strength of the Netherese Mages is recognized by all the nations of the Alliance; it is not for you to slander! The topic regarding the repair work of the Evereska Mythallar ends here; does anyone else have any objections?"

"No."

The Shafeier Warlord muttered a sentence in a low voice, then lowered his head and sat down.

Afterwards, Ilfaran, Yierlan, and Danzo also successively voiced their support for Netheril.

In particular, the Ilfaran Crown King Luoruian even angrily denounced the Shafeier Warlord for having ill intentions, and there were even signs of the anger burning toward the Cormanthor Mianwang; it was only under the pacification of Badijiaer that he calmed down.

Of course, in the eyes of Elder Dewen, this scene was nothing more than a play deliberately performed by the Five Kingdoms to wear down his resistance.

"Since there is no opposition, then this matter is settled!"

The meeting began with the Ilfaran Crown King and ended with the Cormanthor Mianwang; although the status quo of hostility between the two countries remained, a tacit understanding had begun to quietly develop.

The next day.

Xia Duo and Angelin, along with Beilaila, Luodite, and others, stepped onto the Portal for the return journey; as for Badijiaer and Iolum, they remained in Evereska for the time being.

There were still some matters there that required them to handle and hand over; of course, it was mainly Badijiaer, while Iolum was there to discuss the construction of a Portal with Evereska.

Last night at the first meeting of the Northland Alliance, the construction of a Portal in Evereska had also been mentioned, but that was a direct Portal between nations.

The Portal Iolum wanted to discuss belonged to a civilian nature and could not be lumped together.

When "transferring" through the Portal at Ailintar, Xia Duo and the others did not linger, but chose to return directly to Seventon.

Walking out of Giles Tower and seeing the familiar Old City District of Seventon again, Xia Duo felt quite a few emotions in his heart; inside the Elf city, there were magic buildings and Magic Facilities almost everywhere.

But here, only the Old City District had more magic buildings, and most of them existed in the form of Mage Towers; in the New City District, apart from the Elf Embassy, the Seventon Council, and the Arcane Union, there were basically no other magic buildings.

The "top-tier technology" of Netheril was not much behind the Elves, but when it came to the degree of popularization of technology, it was a huge gap behind the Elves.

In reality, it was the overall national strength, and even the potential for war, that was a huge gap behind the Elves.

"I wonder how much will change after the birth of the Mythallar core?"

Actually, Xia Duo knew very well in his heart that even if the Mythallar core appeared, it would at most only raise the ceiling of combat power, but it would be difficult to raise the floor of development levels; truly changing the world still had to rely on oneself!

After leaving the Old City District, Xia Duo first went to the Azure Manor to see Aiwa, and afterwards, he dove headfirst into Iolum's Laboratory at the Arcane Union.

Iolum would not stay in Evereska for too long; Xia Duo needed to master the preparation process of the "Daiwei String" before the other party returned, and prepare a certain quantity of "Daiwei Strings" so that Iolum could conduct experiments as soon as possible after returning.

Isn't that exactly what a Magic Technician does!

At the same time, far away in Cormanthor.

Yilisier Mianwang had just returned to the Tower of Governance when he received a report from his attendant that the patriarchs of the twelve Upper Families were requesting an audience together.

"This is not a request for an audience, but a forced abdication!"

Yilisier rubbed his slightly throbbing brow and waved his hand to let the attendant let in those who were once his most steadfast supporters; he himself changed out of the formal attire he wore in Evereska, and after thinking about it, he tied the Sword of Ruling to his waist over his casual clothes.

They were all a bunch of old foxes; without the Sword of Ruling in hand, he really might not be able to handle them!

When Yilisier was prepared and walked into the reception hall outside the living quarters, the group of Upper Family patriarchs immediately stopped talking, stood up to bow to Yilisier, and then sat down one after another with cold faces, without saying a word.

Regarding this, Yilisier was not annoyed; he knew very well that these postures of the other party were deliberately put on for him to see; as long as he could persuade them, he did not care what posture they assumed.

"Jialan, how is your father's health recently?"

"Many thanks to Mianwang for your concern; my father's health is fine, it's just that he misses my mother; if it weren't for wanting to see Mianwang's great cause succeed, perhaps he would have already gone to the A Fanduo Homeland to reunite with my mother," Jialan replied coldly.

Saying this, it instead made Yilisier feel somewhat awkward; he had originally wanted to use his good personal friendship with Jialan's father to open the conversation, but he did not expect to be blocked back by the other party instead.

What else could the great cause be? Of course, it was the unfinished great cause of the former Aryvandaar, the great cause of Golden Elf Supremacy in the Great Elf Empire!

But since Yilisier dared to publicly say the words "Five Races Equality and Prosperity" in Evereska, he had the confidence to come back and persuade these supporters to continue supporting him!
