The king's gaze turned, and Patrick said without fear: "Before, I just couldn't read the words of Director Jainrini to sneer, and it has little to do with disrespecting the council. X: "I'm the winner, just find a reason to prevaricate, and the rest of the council won't be touching this mold."

"I remember that it seems to be written in the history books of Quel'Salas that humans saved us thousands of years ago, and in our crisis, the Arathi Empire once lent a helping hand, and we also taught them how to use magic, but compared to the pressure of extermination, what about telling humans how to use magic? At least, their help perpetuates the race. ”

"Human beings have a short lifespan, and the human beings who helped us in the first place have passed away one after another, and their descendants have disappeared in the long river of history in pieces. However, this is not important, the important thing is that I think that we should fulfill the original promise, and in the future, we will be clear with humanity, and we will not owe each other, and we will have an excuse to do business in the future. ”

After Patrick finished speaking, he glanced at all the councillors, Jayne Rini had a strong hatred in his eyes, and the other councillors had a look of disinterest.

His Majesty Anastarian concluded in his mind: "The little guy has been hiding his strength, holding back his development, waiting for the other elves to hit the muzzle of the gun themselves at the critical moment. ”

The two councillors had already gone toe-to-toe, and everyone on the periphery stopped talking, and the chairman of the board of directors, Seigor Sunwing, proposed: "In this case, we will send the Ranger force to Lordaeron to support, but there is a premise, the humans will be responsible for the supply and logistics, and we can only carry some of the weapons ourselves." The Ranger departed from Yangfan Harbor on the Unicorn Legion's warship and headed to Nanhai Town to fight the main force of the alliance to fight the enemy together. ”

Undoubtedly, most of the elves agreed with the Chairman's plan, and the vote ended smoothly, and it was finally decided that Quel'Thalas would send 15 companies of rangers to the human kingdom by boat to support the Lordaeron coalition forces, and the specific arrangements were made by the Windranger family themselves, and only the plan needed to be submitted to the council.

After the meeting was adjourned, Patrick was about to return to the family's mage tower, when a lawbreaker attendant arrived: "Director Patrick Cabolon, His Majesty the King is waiting for you. ”

"Please."

Patrick followed the spellbreaker into the royal court, the palace was full of gold, precious stones, the dome was gilded, even the paintings on the walls were outlined with precious metal threads, the potted plants placed in the corners of the walls were stained with the smell of the sunwell, and the leaves were all golden.

Walking through the connecting corridor between the palaces and coming to a hall, Patrick saw the scenery outside the window, and suddenly found that the inconspicuous corridor actually had the effect of a spatial fault, obviously it was only the second floor when he came, and after walking through the connecting corridor, he reached the fifth floor.

After a while, His Majesty Anastarian appeared, his long golden hair hanging down to his feet, his hair was slightly gray, and he had begun to show signs of aging, the king was old, and in the future, when the natural disaster invaded, the arcane energy that had been recuperating in his days was exhausted, and he died of old age on the battlefield.

Now he had stripped off his ceremonial robes, and still held the Queldore Golden Scepter in his hand, which symbolized the kingship of Quel'Thalas, and had a curved sword pinned to his waist, which all elves knew was the famous Flame Strike, the heirloom of the Sunstrider family, and it was precisely because this sword was an heirloom that Darthrema and Anastarian and Prince Kael'thas spent a long time learning swordsmanship.

Etiquette is indispensable for the summons of His Majesty the King, but Patrick, as a councilor, only needs to bow slightly: "Your Majesty! ”

His Majesty the King had already reached the Legend, and he could see at a glance that Patrick had been promoted to the ninth rank: "Since Quel'Salas 6805, you are the first elf to be promoted to the ninth rank at this age. ”

Creatures with a long life have this broken habit, first start to talk about history, put qualifications, tell the other party that I have much more experience than you, what I say is a summary of life experience, containing the truth.

As the strongest spellcaster in the Kingdom of Quel'Salas, King Anastarian has inherited the royal power and the management of the Sunwell for thousands of years, and when His Majesty the King fights with his back to the Sunwell, the attack strength can surpass the level of the Immortals.

The King's tone was flat, as if he was just telling a thing, rather than asking, "Director Patrick, what do you think of the Silvermoon Council?" ”

Patrick looked up at the king and met Anastarian in the eye, "The council tried to squeeze me out, so I had to back down. ”

Without thinking too much, His Majesty the King said directly: "Do you want to go back to Silvermoon City to develop?" ”

Patrick was surprised at first, and then relieved, after all, the Sunstrider royal family has been operating in Quel'Thalas for thousands of years, and if there is no means in his hands to be just a decoration, so that the council forces can completely control the entire Quel'Thalas Kingdom, then the Sunstrider royal power is estimated to not last long.

"I don't want to." Patrick flatly refused, and without waiting for Anastarian to continue to ask, Patrick directly stated the reason: "Your Majesty, don't you think that the development of the kingdom is a little slow?" No, not slowly, but stop. Is there a slightly wider road in the entire kingdom of Quel'Thalas, except for Salas Avenue, which leads directly to the Elven Gate? ”

"The whole of the Ghost Lands has been unbuilt for thousands of years, and the Council, apart from gratuitous rationing, will only spread pleasure, comfort, and a complete monopoly on all the institutions of power. Capable and powerful people are unable to display their ambitions and talents, and can only drown in the crowd of pleasures. Moreover, I was not in the whirlpool of infighting in Silvermoon City in the first place, so why should I jump into it again. ”

Patrick said, the king didn't know about it, but because of the rules of the game in Quel'Salas, the royal family had no actual administrative power, and the actual power of the entire kingdom was in the hands of the Silvermoon Council. In the same way, if you become a parliamentarian, you can't be a member of the royal party, and both the royal family and the parliament maintain these delicate balances, so that the political performance of Quel'Salas can continue.

Sometimes, it's not that the high elves don't want to make progress, but that the elves' top brass are all focused on infighting. Compete for manpower, seize power, monopolize resources, and seize the right to speak. As for development? It was all a by-product of the victory of the internal struggle, and those in power would not think about these "boredoms" until they got a big family victory
