Chapter 618 Cormanso’s Recovery Plan(2/4)
Although Evergreen Island is nominally a monarchy and the Queen has the highest power, in fact the heads of these respective fields have great autonomy and can even force the Queen to retract unreasonable orders.
Therefore, the appearance of the three of them means that the restoration of Comanso is not a temporary initiative of one or two people, but has received widespread support and recognition.
Since everyone in the room had met at the banquet before, there was no need to waste time introducing each other.
Queen Amlanu went straight to the point. She handed a piece of information to Zuo Si first, then pointed to the marked place on the ground and introduced: "According to our spies' report, in the Cormanso Forest,
There are currently four main extremely dangerous dark elf forces.
They are the Ozkwen clan, the Jarl clan, the spider-kissers and the raiding parties that often come from the Underdark.
Among them, the Jelle family is the strongest, with about 8,000 well-trained dark elves.
They were originally a defeated and fleeing family from Menzoberranzan, but after decades of wandering, integration and development, they gradually became stronger.
The current leader of the family is the lame Jazz, and the main faith is Velen.
At present, these guys are very close to the location of the Royal Court and are trying to gain control of the Mystic Lock.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If a military strike is launched, the Jelle family will probably become the most troublesome and difficult enemy.
In second place is the Ozkwen clan, which has about 3,500 dark elves.
They are not a family tied by blood, but more like a wanderer who hugs each other for warmth.
In this group, there are not only dark elves, but also humans, surface elves and half-elves.
They also believe in Velen, so their relationship with the Jelle family has always been harmonious.
The above two dark elf forces have been living in the Cormanthor region for a long time. If you want to regain this area, you must first eradicate them.
Otherwise, even if immigrants come over, they will only be massacred mercilessly by them.
In addition, there are almost a thousand spider-kissers composed of Lolth's followers near the entrance to the Underdark, as well as surface raiders who often join them and provide support.
Although the number of this group of drow is small, they are the most destructive.
After all, they have only one purpose for coming to the surface, and that is to kill and destroy.
As for the ubiquitous gnolls, orcs, goblins and the like, we need to wait until the dark elves are eliminated before considering it."
Zuo Si quickly read the information, with a look of satisfaction on his face: "Quite good intelligence work, it seems that you have figured out the situation of Cormanso.
But I still want to add two more points.
First, just two months ago, the Cult of the Dragon, under the leadership of Zia Modrian, established a foothold near Myth Drannor, which requires special attention.
Because every member of this cult is an irrational lunatic.
Even God cannot predict what they will do.
Second, there are always a large number of adventurers and treasure hunters near Myth Drannor. You'd better think of a way to live in harmony with them.
Otherwise, if these people are angered, the situation will become very, very troublesome.
Finally, I want to ask, how many people do Yongju Island plan to send this time?"
There is no doubt that recovering Cormanthor will not be an easy task.
Because the Ozkwen clan and the Jelle family are the main sources of belief in the dark elf god of conspiracy, with a total of more than 10,000 believers.
For Viren, who has been suppressed and threatened by his mother for a long time, this is definitely not something he can just give up.
So it will 100% eventually turn into a confrontation between gods.
What's more, there is the Spider Goddess Rose watching eagerly.
In Zuo Si's opinion, rather than walking a tightrope in such a highly complex place, it is better to find a place to start over.
But Cormanso is not without its merits.
Especially Myth Drannor, who is protected by a magical secret lock, can immediately ensure the safety of a large area around him as long as he takes control of the core.
This is not a difficult thing for Silinxi, who is the creator of the Mystery Lock.
In addition, there are thousands of surface elves living in this land, and they have a deep attachment and sense of belonging to Cormanthor. As long as Silinxi holds the flag high, she will be recognized by them immediately.
"I plan to dispatch five thousand troops, cross the Falling Star Sea and the Moon Sea directly from the West Coast Empire, and land in the distant mountains. I believe your fleet or airship can safely send this army to its destination, right?"
Grand Marshal Keris Blackhelm picked up a pen and drew the marching route he planned on the map.
Since this is a political action, Everjum Island must make its determination felt by all surrounding countries, and at the same time emphasize the legitimacy and legitimacy of the Kingdom of Cormanthor and Silinxi.
Therefore, the process of dispatching troops must be open and honest, and at the same time, it must be able to show the support of the West Coast Empire, a powerful ally.
"Of course, no problem. But what benefit can I get from it?"
Zuo Si raised his head and stared straight at Queen Amratnu.
Considering that there is Si Linxi, the most powerful mortal mage in Faerûn, sitting in charge, whether there are three thousand people, five thousand people, ten thousand or even twenty thousand people, there is essentially no big difference.
Anyway, as long as the gods don't do it themselves, with her strength, no matter how many dark elves and monsters there are, she can kill them all as long as she comes a few times.
And once control of the Mystic Lock is regained, even the coming of the City of Shadows floating in the Eno Oak Desert will be in vain.
So what Zuo Si really cares about is his own interests.
He is not one of the other chosen ones of the Magic Goddess who would selflessly sacrifice for such ridiculous reasons as kindness and justice.
"I think this should be enough to satisfy you."
Before the queen could speak, Silinxi took the initiative to take out a scroll that had been prepared in advance.
Zuo Si opened it expectantly and glanced at it. He suddenly showed an expression of great surprise and immediately asked with a smile: "Is this the spell transfer you invented?"
Silinxi nodded slightly: "That's right. I think you should know the effect and power of this spell best. Its value is far greater than an artifact, and it cannot be measured by money."
"Deal! I wish us a happy cooperation."
Zuo Si agreed without even thinking, so quickly that everyone around him was shocked.
What a joke!
This is [Silinxi Spell Change]!
A magic coveted by all arcane casters across the realm!
If it were put up for sale, even great arcanists like Ovo and Larocque would spend all their money to pay a sky-high price, not to mention the likes of Sazastan and Sammaster.
You must know that even Elminster, as a disciple, did not get the opportunity to learn this spell.
This shows how precious [Silinxi Spell Transfer] is.
It is estimated that only the Magic Goddess Midnight has the corresponding backup.
Witnessing Zuo Si's face-changing stunt, Silinxi's mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably, she raised her eyebrows and asked in a half-joking tone: "Have you always been so realistic?"
"Of course! As long as there are enough benefits, I can even make a deal with my mortal enemy."
Zuo Si was not ashamed but proud to answer in the affirmative.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Okay, now I finally understand why Elminster doesn't like you. But as a great devil, you are really a model among devils, no wonder Smodeus will personally come forward to invite you to join the hell camp."
When saying these words, Silinxi obviously rolled her eyes.
But Zuo Si, who got what he wanted, obviously didn't care about the attitude of the elf archmage.
But just when he stood up to say goodbye, Queen Amratnu suddenly took out a prism crystal and placed it gently on the table.
moment!
Zuo Si's attention was attracted.
Through the crystal clear surface, he felt the divine power contained inside.
"Your Majesty Soth, this is a gift from the elven gods to you. Thank you for your willingness to support us in returning to the mainland to regain the Kingdom of Cormanthor. As long as this plan succeeds, Yongju Island will become your most loyal ally." Queen Amratnu said solemnly.
"Gift?"
Zuo Si's eyes suddenly became profound, and he clearly felt the gaze from the elves and gods.
Queen Amlanu nodded slightly: "Yes, a gift. The great god knows that you have always been interested in the magic rituals of myths and elves, so he decided to grant you such an ability. In exchange, the god hopes that you can do this. They will provide escort for this operation and deal with enemies who are not convenient for them to deal with."
"So this is a deal?"
Zuo Si understood something instantly and slowly picked up the crystal and felt the knowledge and divine power contained inside.
"No, it's not just a transaction, the great god hopes this is the beginning of some kind of friendship.
Although your evil tendencies and identity as the Great Devil are not in line with the values we uphold, and you also have an unexplained relationship with the Spider Queen.
But after observing for a period of time, the Supreme Creator still feels that you are not the enemy of the elves.
Quite the opposite!
You can become our ally and help us gain a better foothold in Faerûn."
At this moment, Queen Amranu is obviously not representing herself or Evermeet Island, but the powerful Elf Lord Corellon.
"I am honored to have the friendship of the Seldarine gods, especially the great Corellon Larethian, creator and guardian of all elves. Give him my regards and my thanks for his generosity."
After that, Zuo Si directly activated the knowledge and divine power contained in the crystal.
moment!
