Chapter 503 504. Peace talks

After hiding her body under a coral reef, Jie Zena found that her body was shaking uncontrollably. She tore off her golden half-body armor, and the blood from the wound spread in the sea water, attracting several small sharks to wander on the coral reef.

After applying a layer of ointment on the wound on her arm, the wound stopped bleeding quickly.

Only one arm and three ribs should be broken. The broken ribs were reset by Jie Zena, but the broken arm bone was not so easy to reset.

For the first time, Jie Zena felt that she was so close to death.

If she hadn't twisted her body at the most critical moment and avoided the vital part of her chest, the silver hammer might have smashed a bloody hole in her chest.

A beam of holy light directly dispelled the 'Six-Star Stone Prison', which Jie Zena had never expected...

Although it was at night, Jie Zena could see clearly that a human priest rescued the Naga magician at the edge of the jungle.

Thinking of this, Jie Zena couldn't help but narrow her eyes.

The human priest wearing a magic pattern costume held a thick sacred prayer in one hand and a scepter in the other.

"Ah!"

She opened her mouth and screamed.

The fish around the coral reefs were frightened and retreated, and the sharks hovering above their heads disappeared in an instant...

A group of fishmen fled back to the coral reefs in panic.

Jie Zena brought nearly two hundred fishmen and monsters at night, and only most of them escaped back to the coral reefs.

She arranged these fishmen around the reef beach, hoping that they could find the approaching danger in time.

Obviously, she overestimated the ability of this group of fishmen...

...

Miss Tiffany's face was pale, which was the most common condition after the mana was exhausted. In more serious cases, it may cause vomiting, nausea, dizziness, shock, etc.

She half-lying on the beach, took out a bottle of light blue mental potion from her belt and poured it into her mouth.

Roy ran over dragging the Book of Judgment, and found that Miss Tiffany had no injuries. He was relieved and asked Miss Tiffany:

"Tiffany, how do you feel?"

Miss Tiffany waved her hand at Roy:

"I'm fine, but I've consumed too much mana and I'm a little exhausted. I'll rest here for a while, and you go see the big cat."

The Night Blade Leopard was lying on the beach not far away, turning its head to lick the wound on its shoulder.

The spear was still stuck in its body, making it unable to move.

Roy walked over quickly.

He first squatted down to confirm that the spear did not hurt the Night Blade Leopard's organs, and then he directly cut off the spear handle.

Perhaps it hurt the Night Blade Leopard, and the Night Blade Leopard turned its head suddenly and held Roy's bloody hand in its mouth, but did not bite it...

Roy looked at the Night Blade Leopard's head that was bruised by the shield, and hurriedly used his hand to comfort the somewhat irritable Night Blade Leopard.

The Night Blade Leopard narrowed his eyes, seeming to enjoy Roy's comfort at this time.

Roy pressed a ball of holy light on the wound, then clenched the sharp spear tip and pulled the spear out of the Night Blade Leopard's body in one go. The Night Blade Leopard jumped up suddenly and whimpered, but this time he did not bite Roy again.

He took out the hemostatic ointment from the magic waist bag, applied it on the Night Blade Leopard's wound, and bandaged it with a bandage.

The Dark Moon Elf Warrior killed some murlocs near the sea reef, and then gradually withdrew from the shallow sea area and stood beside Roy.

Not long after, Deputy Captain Tennyson also walked out of the sea all wet, walked over slowly, and sat down on the beach...

"I heard that the skin of the murlocs can also be used to make magic leather paper. Why don't you collect these murloc skins on the beach?" Miss Tiffany's face regained a little color, walked to the side of the Night Blade Leopard, and said to Roy while helping Roy check its wounds.

"Uh...really? I haven't seen murloc leather in Castleton." Roy asked uncertainly.

"Well, there is no magic parchment made of magic antelope skin in our place. Almost all of them are magic parchments made of murloc skin. This kind of magic parchment is water-friendly, and it will increase the power of drawing water magic." Miss Tiffany said.

"Tennyson, do you Dark Moon elves mind peeling these murloc skins?" Roy turned his head and asked Tennyson.

"No! Most of these Dark Moon elf warriors used to be jungle hunters. They hunted monsters in the jungle and have long been accustomed to peeling skins and taking magic cores." Tennyson said frankly.

"Then try to peel some and dry them. If there is a market for this kind of murloc leather, we can also make money..."

Roy said to Tennyson.

"Did you hear that? Hurry up!"

Deputy Captain Tennyson immediately ordered several Dark Moon elf warriors around him.

...

The military camp is at least two kilometers away from the north coast, and there is a dense jungle in the middle.

But even so, Miss Tiffany did not choose to live in the camp. Instead, she rested on the beach for a while and then walked into the sea.

"There are fish monsters everywhere around here, Tiffany, be careful!"

Seeing that Miss Tiffany insisted on living in the sea, Roy could only remind her seriously.

"Roy, have you forgotten that I am a Naga? How could they threaten me..."

After saying that, Miss Tiffany suddenly jumped forward and jumped into the sea with a splash, leaving only a layer of shallow waves on the sea surface.

Roy returned to the camp with the Night Blade Leopard.

Deputy Captain Tennyson also returned to the camp with nearly seventy pieces of fishman leather. These leathers smelled very fishy, ​​so Deputy Captain Tennyson hung these fish skins in the corner of the camp to dry.

Some Dark Moon Elf warriors ran out of the tent to help.

The Griffin Cavalry Regiment is not stationed in the jungle camp. They usually live in the camp on the top of the hilly cliff.

A large amount of supplies brought by the Mine Guard Regiment are also stored in the camp here. Hundreds of griffins squatted on wooden boxes to rest.

The camp was crowded with people, and the griffin cavalry gathered together.

These griffin cavalry were all half-blood elves who followed the village chief Tiprado out of the Sun Island Bay. They mastered the skills of animal trainers and could tame griffins into partners.

Kaka and Eugene also stood in the crowd.

At present, the Griffin Cavalry Regiment has grown to more than 700 griffin cavalry, which accounts for almost 60% of the total number of griffin trainers in the Sun Island Bay.

Everyone sat together, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.

As the head of the Griffin Cavalry Regiment, the village chief Tiprado stood in the middle of the crowd, first asking everyone to be quiet, and then said:

"Now you all know that there is a group of sirens hiding behind the fish monsters, which makes sense... Why do some compatriots in each village always disappear for no reason?"

"For so many years, we have never found any sirens hiding in the Sun Island Bay, alas!"

The village chief Tiprado sighed, and then said:

"The mine guards can't just stay in the Sun Island Bay like this. There are more than 10,000 headhunters on the Pagisto Plateau who need to be watched."

"I originally planned that as long as the mine guards could repel the fish monsters and curb the expansion of the fish into the jungle on the north coast, the initial strategic goal would be achieved."

"But Boss Roy wants to solve the problem once and for all. He wants to build a harbor on the north coast, then build a batch of ships, and then attack Sun Island to completely drive these sea monsters and fishmen out of the Sun Island Bay."

"This way... of course, we can prevent future troubles, but how much the mine guards will cost may be something we can never imagine..."

"In fact, we only need the area along the north coast and the offshore area, and we don't need the Sun Island at all."

"So I plan to propose to Boss Roy tomorrow that we can negotiate with those sea monsters. If they can give up the north coast, we are willing to cease fire."

"I called everyone here tonight just to hear everyone's opinions..."

The camp became very quiet, with only the cry of a griffin from time to time near the wooden box.

"Captain Tiprado, we have no objection. If we can negotiate, as long as everyone does not invade each other, that is also possible..."

Some half-blood elves stood up and expressed their opinions.

"Yes, as long as these fishmen can give up the north coast, we can go to the seaside to fish, and our lives can be more comfortable!"

"That's right..."

When the village chief Tiprado saw that everyone had expressed their opinions and no half-blood elves stood up to raise objections, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Then it's settled. I will go to Boss Roy to talk about this matter tomorrow morning, so that the war in Sun Island Bay can end earlier."

Every extra day the mine guards stayed in Sun Island Bay, the camp consumed a lot of supplies.

Watching the continuous transportation of supplies from Pagisto Plateau and Padstow City, the village chief Tiprado suddenly realized how high the cost of launching a war was.

In fact, he also hoped to drive all the fishmen and monsters out of Sun Island Bay, but now it seems that in order to do this, Boss Roy may have to build a fleet in Sun Island Bay.

This is also the reason why the village chief Tiprado hesitated again and again before proposing peace talks.

...

The village chief Tiprado, Kaka, and Eugene walked into the jungle camp early in the morning and found Roy who had just crawled out of the tent.

Roy was just about to go to the beach to check the location of the port wharf. This wharf needs to find a deep water area near the shore, preferably with a wide and unobstructed natural waterway, at least to allow the three-masted sailboat to dock smoothly.

"Hey, why did you guys come here so early?" Roy stood outside the tent and looked at Kaka.

"Roy, the village chief of Tiprado wants to have a good talk with you!" Kaka walked to Roy and said.

"Okay, you can tell me any questions." Roy asked the three to sit down. There was an open-air conference table outside his tent, and several people sat around the table.

The village chief of Tiprado immediately expressed his thoughts.

Roy was also very clear about the concerns of the village chief of Tiprado. The longer this matter was delayed, the greater the cost of the war would be, and the hatred accumulated by both sides would become deeper and deeper...

"Do you really want to negotiate with them?" Roy stared at the village chief of Tiprado and asked.

The village chief of Tiprado nodded slightly and said, "The resources here are sufficient. We only need the living space from the northern jungle to the northern coast to live well!"

Roy said he understood, then smiled and said, "Since we are here this time, it is impossible for us to only want such a small benefit, but... we can indeed talk to them."

"I also want to contact them."

Roy brought Miss Tiffany to the Partington plane, and his original intention was to contact these fish people.

...

Since he wanted to negotiate with the fishmen, Roy asked Miss Tiffany to write a letter to the leader of the Siren in Naga language.

This letter was very short, with only one sentence on the letter paper, which roughly meant: Now the war in the Sun Island Bay has reached a stalemate, so do you have any idea of ​​peace talks?

In order to let the Siren leader see it, Roy asked Miss Tiffany to write five letters in one breath, and then stuffed them into the bodies of five fishmen and asked them to take them back.

Siren leader Latimore was in the cave of Sun Island, looking at the letter in his hand that looked like a piece of paper, and his face became more and more uncertain...

Jizena stood at the entrance of the cave, staring at Siren leader Latimore, who was so thin that he was almost left with only a skeleton. In recent years, in order to suppress the injuries on his body, his health has been getting worse and worse, and it is unknown how long he can hold on.

However, Jiezena did not dare to guess randomly, because the bones of the Siren leader who had been guessed at the last time were still soaking in the pool of water in the cave.

The other Siren Captains were able to gain Latimore's trust not because of their outstanding strength, but because they were stupid but absolutely loyal.

"Commander, what are you going to do?" After waiting for a long time, Jie Zena finally couldn't help asking.

"Talk to those half-blood elves first and see what kind of demands they will make." Commander Latimore's voice was very hoarse, probably because the muscles around his throat were gradually shrinking.

"Yes, Commander!" Jie Zena didn't even dare to look into his eyes full of dead air.

"You go back and agree on a place for peace talks with the other party first. I will let Captain Staven be responsible for negotiating with them..." After Commander Latimore said this, he immediately poured a thick green medicine into his stomach.

The bowl of medicine seemed to have a miraculous effect. As soon as he drank it, Commander Latimore's body was like a long-dried riverbed that gained water, and his body quickly filled up.

The blood vessels in his arms and neck became clearly visible, and his extremely dry skin began to shine...

Commander Latimore let out a sigh of relief. This bowl of medicine greatly relieved his physical symptoms, but he seemed to be afraid to look at the bowl full of green juice...

"Jizena, I'll ask you to follow up on the early contact with the group of half-blood elves."

Commander Latimore's eyes brightened, and he leaned in front of Jiezena, looking greedily at Jiezena's flawless white jade face.

"Yes, Lord Commander!"

Jizena moved her body back calmly and answered carefully.
