“Guild Leader, I’ll go to Shaya with you!” Lago lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said firmly, “I’m from all over the world anyway, and the Gate of Bode is no different from Shaya.”

“Rick, I…” Compared to Largo’s straightforward attitude, Winnie hesitated a little.

“Winnie, stop talking. You’re different from Largo. Your family is in Deepwater City, and you always have to go back after training. How can you follow me?” Rick smiled and shook his head. “Even though the Thorn Blood Mercenary Group has been disbanded, we are still friends. One day, we will meet again.”

Winnie raised her head and grabbed the staff tightly, but her gaze gradually dimmed. As a woman and a mage, she didn’t care about family or family, but there were still parents who cared about her. It was impossible for her to follow Rick to the Kingdom of Shaya.

Rick smiled calmly and glanced at Qin Lun and the others in the distance. Suddenly, he lowered his voice and said, “I don’t want to say anything bad about my other companions. The adventure this time was worth it. There’s nothing to regret.”

But I must remind you, Winnie, whether it’s Miss Linda or Ferrar, that if they continue to invite you to take risks, you must never get involved again. ”

‘”These guys have died with us for so many days, but they still haven’t revealed their true identities. I still don’t dare to trust them,” Lago said with a bitter smile.

Rick shook his head indifferently. “It might not be good for us to know their identities. Forget it. Although I’m not afraid of life and death, I don’t want to die unknowingly.”

…

Just as Rick and the others were whispering, Qin Lun and Masta Xia had something to talk about.

“After leaving the troll’s claw, do you want to return to Anke Fairy Court next?” Highland Elves asked tentatively.

Qin Lun looked at Masta Xia and lowered his head to pretend to be deep in thought. They were currently undertaking a branch mission of the Silvermoon Nation’s founding, which was an epic mission with great benefits. Naturally, it was impossible for them to give up. However, in order to carry out this mission, they needed the support of the harpsichord master in front of them, or the harpsichord alliance behind her.

This wasn’t to say that without Mastasia, they wouldn’t be able to go to the Silvermoon Alliance, but that the strength of the three of them wasn’t enough to support this epic mission.

The last time Qin Lun entered Toril World, he had also performed the epic quest of the Ancient Road.

At that time, he had two complete silver teams, as well as the Japanese Elves Guards that guarded Milleras. Along the way, he had also joined Snowpeak Dwarves, Idrea, and the others. However, very few people had arrived at Bird’s Gate in the end.

Right now, he only had Hill and Rand by his side. In addition, the location of the mission was an incomparably unfamiliar Northern Lands. If there were no other forces that could use it, they would definitely die if they rashly launched the mission and fought against the assassins of the Santalin Society.

The three murderers were very proud from the bottom of their hearts, but they were not arrogant enough to ignore everything. That was stupidity, not confidence. So they need the support and help of the Harpsichord Alliance.

However, as a harpsichord master, even if Mustacha wasn’t a professional spy for a harpsichord like a bard, she was still extremely sensitive and wasn’t that easy to deceive. Qin Lun needed a valid reason to reassure the Highland Elves that they could participate in this epic plot openly.

“No, we don’t plan to return to Anke Fairy Court immediately. After we leave the troll claw, we will head straight to the north.” Countless thoughts flashed through Qin Lun’s mind in an instant, and he finally decided to tell the truth.

‘”Why? Anke Fairy Court has now integrated the Thorned Forest and the Forest of Winter. The Mill Forest in the west also seems to have the intention to join you. King Tynequilas is planning to set up the Shining Moon Royal Court. Theopia is one of the important inheritances of the Elves Royal Court. Aren’t you planning to go back and help your clansmen as a prince?”

Mastasia blinked her eyes and asked craftily, “Don’t tell me that you really went north to destroy their plot for the sake of that little grudge with the Santalin Society, right?”

Qin Lun was speechless for a moment. The Highland Elves weren’t easy to fool. The far-fetched reason given a few days ago clearly did not win her trust.

“My enmity with the Santalin Society is irrelevant. An attempted assassination won’t be enough to keep me thinking about it for that long!” Qin Lun slowly shook his head and smiled. “Mastasia, since you’ve been paying attention to Anke Fairy Court for so long, you should know why King Tynequilas sent me to join the Japanese Elves diplomatic corps, right?”

‘”Yes, I know! King Tynequilas hopes that the Moon Elves tribe will share the glory of returning to the Ancient Road and increase Anke Fairy Court’s prestige in order to consolidate the Moon Elves Court in the south-central continent and contend against the Sun Court to be established on Evergathering Island in the future.” Mastasia said without hesitation.

King Tynequilas’ plan was a conspiracy, and even the wisest people on the continent could see it clearly, including the Harpsichord Alliance.

“Since you know, then you should understand why I want to go to the Silvermoon Alliance instead of returning to Anke Fairy Court.”

Qin Lun sighed, his thoughts gradually clearing up. After sorting out his words, he continued, “King Tynequilas did not grant me the status of Prince of Theopia. He only gave me an excuse to participate in the diplomatic corps.

Although they are all part of Moon Elves, the Moon Elves behind me is Jonda Elves, not Ankyue Elves. I am different from Anke Fairy Court’s orthodox Moon Elf Prince.

In the future Shining Moon Royal Court, Jonda Eryue Elves is an insignificant small tribe. Their future status and distribution of benefits in the Royal Court will depend entirely on my and Easten’s personal prestige. Traveling through the Ancient Road will make Elves respect me, but it’s not enough for them to face Jonda head-on. Besides, I haven’t actually completed the Ancient Road. ”

The Ancient Road started from the Commanso Forest until the end of Eternal Assembly Island, and the last stop on the continent of Ferren was Deepwater City. Qin Lun had already left Toril World at Bird’s Gate, so he naturally couldn’t be considered to have finished the Ancient Era’s Path.

“Are you saying that you still need to continue to raise your prestige, so that the Moon Elves Tribe that will gather under the Royal Court of Shining Moon will have to face you and Jonda Eryue Elves head-on?” Mastasia murmured with a flash of her eyes.

“It’s not face-to-face, it’s look-up. Being one level better than others can only bring about jealousy. However, being countless levels better than others becomes great, making others unable to even feel jealous.” Qin Lun smiled without changing his expression.

“In addition, there is another point. The future Radiant Moon Elves Court will be different from the Sun King Court on Eternal Assembly Island. We will have to face the pressure of other human powers on the continent. I think no race on the continent wants to see a united and powerful Moon Elves Court next to us, so we need a strong ally.”

Qin Lun smiled and said, “For mainland Elves, all the human kingdoms on the continent are not suitable partners, and the Silvermoon Alliance with its complicated races is different.” Elves and Half Elves make up more than 30% of the population, and they have quite a few Elves druids and Elves mages at the top. Even Silvermoon City Lord Elastor Silverhand himself looks like Half Elves. ”

(Kieran says Elaszo’s appearance is half Elves, not half Elves. That’s because Elaszo’s mother, Al Thornton, is the incarnation of Magic Goddess Misra. The seven sisters of the Northern Lands led by Elaszo are the daughters of Gods. Elaszo’s voters, of course, can’t be said to be half Elves.)

“Going to the north to save the Alliance Lord Council led by Elaszo and reaching some sort of alliance with the Silvermoon Alliance will be the greatest surprise when the Glorious Moon Court is established. At the same time, it will allow your reputation to reach its peak in the future Glorious Moon Court, comparable to the first Glorious Moon King of Elves, Tyrannus Night Star.”

Mastasia muttered to herself thoughtfully, “Even if the elven tribes behind you are not strong enough to become the second Elf King, no one would dare to ignore the status and interests of the Jondar Moon Elves.”

Qin Lun smiled and didn’t say anything. He could tell that although Masta Xia hadn’t completely resolved her doubts, at least the reason he had given was flawless. Bound together with the harpsichord master, he would receive intelligence support from the Harpsichord Alliance.

“By the way, you and Miss Linda have been discussing privately the other day. Could it be that she also wants to participate in this matter?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up and he asked quietly.

“Linda really wants to take part in this’ Novelty ‘adventure.” Upon mentioning her new companion, Highland Elves smiled. “She’s just worried that her teacher will grounded her soon after she returns, so she’s not sure yet. However, she’s willing to provide us with a shortcut to the North.”

“Shortcuts, what kind of shortcuts are they?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. There was less than half a month left for the Silvermoon City celebration. Even if they arrived in the Northern Lands, they still needed time to investigate the plotters of the Santalin Society. If there was no other way, there was not enough time left.

“Before Linda came out this time, she had already handed over her job at the Mercenary Guild. She was supposed to accompany her teacher back to Candlekeep a week ago.” Mastasia smiled and said, “According to her, Candlekeep’s arcanists have built several large teleportation formations underground in Candlekeep in order to reach every corner of the continent quickly. Perhaps we can use these teleportation formations to travel to the Northern Lands.”

“Candlekeep? You mean that famous mage fortress!” Qin Lun frowned slightly. This was an unexpected surprise. “If they don’t provide teleportation, we won’t even have enough time to go to the Silvermoon Alliance.”

Candlekeep was located at the end of the Lion Road. It was a cliff fortress across the sea from Ferren Continent. It was located southwest of Bird’s Gate, but it was about a hundred miles away from their current location. It was the opposite of heading north.

‘”Don’t worry, Candlekeep is not just a fortress of mages. It is also an ocean of knowledge open to everyone. It is the largest fee-paying library in the world. Even without Linda’s introduction, they will provide teleportation services as long as we pay the price.” Mustacha said without any worry.
