Chapter 915 Voting(1/2)
Nalant, on the other hand, smiled and said nothing. This kind of thing happened frequently in his previous life.
Since even enemies are not eternal, the same is true for allies.
As the saying goes, those who are not of my race must have different hearts. This famous saying is an eternal truth.
In the current situation, it is easier for other races to say it, because they have not had much conflict with the human race in the first place.
After all, races such as elves and dwarves are too small in number and do not need to compete with humans for living space.
But the beast race is different. Their reproductive ability is even worse than that of the human race.
Therefore, once there is no common enemy, it will fall into a fight with the human race again.
Therefore, if they come to support, they will definitely not be sincere, and they will even be happy to see that this crisis can consume a lot of human power.
As for the Goblins, Nalant felt that they didn’t put as much thought into it as the Beasts.
Because he had reason to suspect that these goblins were timid and did not want to leave the thorn fortress, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Several leaders and commanders, now that the meeting has officially begun, I still hope that you and your people can think carefully about it, because this crisis can truly threaten the safety of our entire continent."
"If we are not careful and united to deal with it, there will be no survivors under the dilapidated sailboat, and everyone will not have a good outcome!"
"So, I will give you five minutes to discuss again and make another vote after five minutes."
"At that time, our actions this time will be based on the results of the vote!"
President Theodore looked at several foreign kings or leaders, his words full of sincerity.
As someone who had personally experienced the terror of the dark lord, he really felt that if he did not deal with it carefully, it would be difficult to say whether the Holy Continent would be able to receive support.
"Haha, we orcs don't need to negotiate. When we came, the Beast King had already explained that everything should focus on defense, because dark creatures have appeared in our sacred continent for more than a year or two."
"As long as we keep our current defense line from collapsing, there won't be much difference in our lives in the future."
"Also, who knows if you humans want to trick us into consuming dark creatures for you."
"After all, this Thorn Fortress is a level that is absolutely easy to defend but difficult to attack. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to defend here?"
President Theodore just finished speaking, but the orc commander didn't want to give face and directly said that he didn't need to think about it.
Obviously, the orcs have made up their minds not to leave this fortress.
However, Theodore had already known this, after all, the previous plan to stay at the Thorn Fortress was proposed by the Orcs.
Therefore, what he is currently concerned about is the thoughts of the dwarves and elves.
"King of the Hill, King of Elf, the reason why we humans propose to go to the Land of Death to garrison is not really for any selfish reasons!"
"But we have considered that if the dark creatures are too strong, then we will have no depth with a Thorn Fortress."
"If there is no problem with the Fortress of Thorns, then behind it lies the land of our human principality."
"And there are thousands of civilians there!"
"Of course, although these are just human civilians and have nothing to do with you, please don't forget that dark creatures are terrifying. Once they kill enough creatures, they will continue to create dark creatures."
"By then, the catastrophe of hundreds of years ago may happen again!"
"Human Race President, we will consider it carefully!"
The King of the Hill and the Elf King nodded upon hearing this, then walked to where their respective tribesmen were, and then started discussing.
The leader of the Goblin tribe did the same. For a moment, the entire conference hall was waiting for a reply.
When Narant saw this, he was curious and immediately got up and left his seat dressed as a sheep to go to the toilet.
In fact, he went outside the door and gave several instructions to Shirley.
Shirley nodded when she heard this, and then immediately released two bees and flew into the door that was opened more than thirty centimeters wide.
Time passed by minute by second, and soon it was five minutes later.
At this time, several bees also slipped out from the crack of the door.
A few bees flew to Shirley's ears and buzzed for a moment. Then Shirley whispered to Nalant: "Sir, those pointed ears still don't seem to be ready to express their stance, but to see what options the dwarves will have.
"
"Bee said that those people with pointed ears always remember that the humans captured and sold their people before, but they have not had contact with the humans for hundreds of years."
"So, they are not sure whether the current human race is still as bad as before. On the contrary, those bearded dwarves are more upright."
"So, if the dwarves trust the humans, then they will also trust the humans."
"Is that so?" Nalant nodded.
The human race does have a bad reputation among these races. They cheat, kidnap, and sell slaves. These are what the human race likes to do in order to earn gold coins.
The elves were obviously deceived and frightened by the humans in the past, so they chose to make decisions with the dwarves without fully understanding the information.
Because although dwarves are rude and have a bad temper and love to drink, they are more upright than humans.
Moreover, the dwarves have had long-term contact with the human race. If the dwarves can trust the human race, then they will naturally make the same choice as the dwarves.
"What did the dwarf say?" Nalant immediately asked Shirley again.
"Sir, the dwarves seem to be similar to the elves. They think the humans are very cunning. Could they be saying the same thing as the orcs, and want them to follow them to the front, and then let them consume the number of dark creatures?"
"However, some dwarves feel that the dark abyss has appeared, and the situation has indeed threatened the entire Holy Continent."
"Although the human race was indeed shameless and cunning in the past, under such a crisis, if we don't unite as one, we may very well be in trouble."
"In addition, the human race is one of the most powerful races in the Holy Continent, and it also has the largest number of people. If the human race is really defeated by the dark creatures, then other races may not be able to resist the dark creatures."
"So, he thinks it's necessary to support the human race."
"However, there are very few supporters of this dwarf's statement. It seems that the King of the Hill finally decided to play it safe and stay in the Thorn Fortress!"
After hearing what little girl Shirley said, Nalant nodded and sighed helplessly.
The human race has a bad reputation and has lost trust in front of these foreign races.
But it’s no wonder, because in the past, human nobles did many things unkindly.
Immediately, Nalant entered the conference hall directly.
At this time, the voting above had already begun.
"We orcs continue to insist on resisting the invasion of dark creatures in this Thorn Fortress!"
The orc leader spoke first.
"We Goblins also feel that it is safer to be stationed in Thorn Fortress."
When the goblin saw the orcs expressing their stance, he looked around and immediately expressed his attitude.
This situation was indeed no different from before. President Theodore and the kings immediately frowned and looked at the dwarves and elves.
Now it depends on the stance of these two races.
"We, the elves, are waiting for the dwarves' decision!" At this moment, the Elf King turned his attention to the King of the Hill.
The King of the Hill was stunned, and his beard trembled, "Elf King, aren't you making things difficult for me, the dwarf?"
"King of the Hill, this is the trust we, the elves, place in you!" The Elf King smiled at the King of the Hill.
The King of the Hill was naturally unable to say anything after hearing this, and the next moment he was ready to express his stance.
"We dwarves think we should stay temporarily..."
The King of the Hill lengthened his voice, and when he heard this half sentence, the human race's heart felt cold.
The word "stay" has clearly stated the choice of the dwarves.
"King of the Hill!"
But at this time, a call suddenly came from the hall.
The King of the Hill was a little confused after his words were interrupted by this voice, and then he stopped talking and turned around to look.
But it was Narant who stood up.
"Narant?"
The King of the Hill frowned at first when he saw Nalant, and then smiled, apparently remembering him.
"King of the Hill, long time no see!"
