136 The Other Party’s Situation
After this person finished speaking, the Elf beside him quickly nodded and said, “That’s right. Sir, you can’t keep us locked up forever. It’s not very appropriate.
“Our two tribes are of the same origin after all. If you do this, our tribes might get angry.”
As Su Ming listened to their conversation, he quirked his eyebrows slightly and turned his gaze toward the Elf who had spoken.
“So, what you just said, were you threatening me?”
The Elf was stunned for a moment, but he quickly shook his head.
!!
“No, no, absolutely not, my Lord. I know that your tribe is powerful, but it’s not very appropriate for you to do this.”
The Elf did not know whether it was because he was too nervous or because he felt that Su Ming’s words were a little too unreasonable.
This and this for a long time, but there was no result.
Su Ming cast him a glance, but there was not much change in his expression.
Once he cast him a glance, Su Ming said, “Last time, you two talked about your tribe’s strength and defense. Are there any other problems?”
The two Elves in front of him immediately nodded their heads and said, “No, no, of course there won’t be any other problems.
“Great Prophet, you must know that we’re already in such a desperate situation. We won’t lie to you about this.”
Su Ming cast him a glance, but the expression on his face showed that he did not want to comment.
After a slight pause, Su Ming continued, “Then, other than strength and defense, do you have any other Alliances?”
“Or rather, are there any other tribes that can help you when your tribe starts a war?”
As soon as he said that, the two Elves in front of him were stunned.
Then, the two of them gradually came to their senses, and their expressions changed at the same time. The Elf on the left carefully said, “You mean…you…?
“Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t ask!”
Zelda’s cold voice made the Elf shut up.
Su Ming smiled. “Since your tribe has this attitude toward us, then you should also understand that there will be a battle between us sooner or later.
“As for my question, you can answer it or not.
“The good or bad between the two, you can decide for yourself.”
Su Ming did not threaten them, and there was no need for him to do so. They would definitely understand what they should.
When the two Elves in the dungeon heard Su Ming’s words, their expressions changed slightly.
After they came to their senses, the two of them looked at each other with grave expressions.
Then, one of them turned around and said, “Great Prophet, can you give us some time to think about it?”
Su Ming nodded, then turned around and left the dungeon with Zelda.
Once they left the dungeon, Su Ming did not turn around to look at Zelda. Instead, he said, “How many Alliance soldiers do you think they have?”
Zelda frowned slightly when she heard that. At first, she felt strange, but she quickly reacted.
The attitude of the two Elves just now had actually explained something.
If the tribe behind them did not have any other reinforcements from the Alliance, they would definitely not have reacted that way, and they would definitely not have given Su Ming time to think about it.
After all, he still needed time to consider whether to say something he did not have.
Zelda frowned and said, “I don’t think it’ll be a lot.”
“Moreover, the Elf tribe in that area is probably still in chaos. It’s either an internal riot or an invasion from an external tribe.”
After a short pause, Zelda added, “In my opinion, the latter is more likely.”
Su Ming quirked his eyebrows and cast a slightly surprised look at Zelda. “Why?”
Zelda muttered to herself before asking, “Great Prophet, have you ever seen any conflicts among our Elven race?”
When Su Ming heard that, he immediately came to a realization.
“Elves were different from other races. Although they didn’t admit it, they had a sense of superiority in front of other races.
“And this sense of superiority made them united.
“If it wasn’t a big problem, they wouldn’t have any internal riots.”
“Besides, if there’s an internal conflict,” Zelda continued, “they probably wouldn’t have the time to ask us to join their tribe as a subordinate tribe.
“I’m guessing that they’re in a situation where they’re in conflict with the nearby tribes, but they can still deal with it.
“Only then will they have the time to send those letters to us, and at the same time, delay their actions against us.
“Because they themselves are also held back by some things.”
When Su Ming heard this, he nodded. “Based on what you’re saying, the two Elves just now should have had the intention of stalling for time.”
Zelda took a deep breath and nodded with a frown.
“It should be like this.”
When Su Ming heard that, he nodded and asked, “Have you figured out how to get to their tribe and the situation on the way?”
“Yes,” Zelda said, “I’ve figured it out.”
Su Ming suddenly turned around and cast a glance at the dungeon not too far away.
“If that’s the case, then we’ll wait for commander Dishan to complete the construction of the city at this stage before we set off for the expedition!” Su Ming suddenly smiled and said.
Zelda’s expression changed when she heard that.
Even though there were still many hesitations and thoughts in her heart, when she heard Su Ming’s words, she still nodded her head decisively.
Zelda’s experience told him that she should just leave the decision to the Prophet.
“Commander Zelda, I’ll have to trouble you for the next few days.”
As Su Ming spoke, he nodded slightly at Zelda to show her respect.
Zelda was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and bowed.
“It’s my duty to relieve the Prophet’s worries.”
Su Ming smiled and did not continue the topic. Instead, he walked straight toward the town square.
Once he returned to the square in the town, the first thing Su Ming did was to look for Dishan.
When Dishan saw Su Ming, he first bowed respectfully before he brought out a set of equipment.
