Warlock Royal Family

Chapter 433 Specious But Enough

What went wrong, Jarlaxle had actually been thinking about it.

He had been thinking about it long before his boots stepped on his face, when Ladislaus deliberately poured down the bowl of unpalatable bean soup.

The monarch in front of him wanted to lure him to bend over, and let Entreri subdue him from behind.

Although he had enough similar experience to see through the plan and counterattack, it was meaningless.

The surrounding high-ranking Austrians were too tough, and Jarlaxle's resistance was futile under their joint attack. [

"Too bad." Ladislaus heard Jarlaxle moan as Margarita's boots moved away.

He barely showed a smiling face: "You humans are indeed more treacherous than us."

"It won't be that bad, my drow friend, you still have a chance to live." Ladislaus did not intend to threaten Jarlaxle with death, although Ladislaus had more than half the chance to Kill him, but he doesn't intend to threaten him with this.

"Oh, I'm not saying that it's a bad thing that I will die, His Royal Highness Habsburg, no one can escape death, and it's not too bad to die in your hands." Jarlaxle's words seemed to be giving himself Cheer up. "What I'm talking about is that Drizzt Durden just destroyed your trap and escaped unscathed, and I was caught by you in less than 24 hours. This is too bad."

"It's true, it's true. You two must be the most amazing duo in the drow world today. The question of who is the best must have troubled you for a long time. This time it is inevitable that he will have the upper hand. Especially you If you don't get out of this room alive, the side that lives longer is generally considered to be superior in many cases." Ladislaus sounded really sorry.

"There's no other way. His luck has always been better." Jarlaxle didn't respond to the true meaning of Ladislaus' words.

"Both of you are so strong, and both of you are the most precious treasure of the drow elves. Isn't it a great loss for your race to die like this?" Ladislaus stopped Ma, who wanted to step on it again, with a look. grita.

"That's why you saw me through? The two of us are too strong?" Jarlaxle suddenly realized that it was from this clue that Ladislaus discovered his problem. For the first time, there was a little genuineness in his voice. Surprised.

"That's right, there are too few drows. How many people do you have?" Jarlaxle obviously didn't intend to answer this question.

Jarlaxle did not respond, and Ladislaus continued on his own: "A city-state that claims to have a population of tens of thousands is actually at most two or three thousand drow. Maybe a little less? Everything else is Goblins and other slaves with limited intelligence, such a weakened race, suddenly two powerful towns appeared in Austria together, or as enemies? This is incredible, your strength is too weak, maybe those stupid people will attack each other Never stop, those who are truly wise and far-sighted will know that if you unite, your race will have a chance of survival. Jones told me that you and Drizzt Durden are the most far-sighted of all drow gone."

Ladis Lauston paused and continued: "There is another flaw that the Spanish main fleet has not fully assembled. The Mediterranean coastline used to block the Kingdom of France is already the limit of their strength, and the Republic of Venice has fallen into chaos again. Chaos", the Ottoman Empire and Barbary pirates are now completely controlling the Eastern Mediterranean, and that’s all in the Adriatic Sea. After all, short-distance trade is enough, and now the merchants who can transport Austrian goods out of the Adriatic Sea They are more or less related to Ottomans or Barbary pirates, and even believers of the Xingyue Devil. Even so, it is inevitable to lose a large amount of goods occasionally, but you Drows seem to have never complained about the difficulty of the sea route, but compared to the previous question It's just a secondary reason."

"The actions of rational people are predictable." Jarlaxle said softly the words he used to judge Ladislaus' actions, and it turned out that the other party was always using his actions to judge himself.

'Since when am I, Jarlaxle, a sane and predictable drow? '

Jarlaxle didn't realize it.When he also began to worry about the survival of the drow race, he actually became rational and predictable.

"Great, just for such a specious reason, you have seen me through. Not enough is enough. So you guessed that we would not still kill each other in such a desperate situation. Compared with the convenience of the fleet, this is indeed It's much more important, you can find the path of action of a rational person by following the interests, and I really lost. The starting point of your prediction is the greatest and most important interests."

"It is true that you lost, but I hope you don't blame yourself for this. This is a human victory, not my personal victory."

Ladislaus tried to comfort the lost drow warrior. In fact, he also felt doubts during the battle.

The existence of Jarlaxle seemed to be keeping Jones in check. His existence prevented Ladislaus from guaranteeing his own safety, and Jones had to be on guard at all times.Can't take part in the siege of that drow ranger.

If Jarlaxle really wants to deal with Drizzt, he should try his best to attack so that Ladislaus' subordinates don't have to worry about the safety of their monarch. [

But Ladislaus did not say this reason to preserve Jarlaxle's self-esteem. This wise man will finally think of this for himself and understand Ladislaus's generosity.

Although there is no real evidence.But this is not a court after all, there are laws of nature and the world above the written laws of human beings. Although these laws are not known to everyone, and sometimes even unspeakable, they are more authoritative and unshakable.

The combination of these reasons is enough for Ladislaus to attack a drow messenger from the Black Continent.

"This is not my personal failure but drow's failure? This is really bad. When I was young, I always thought that my fate was only related to me, but after the country broke and my family fled into the desert, my thinking changed." Jia There was genuine sadness and concern on Lasso's booted face.

That was the bad thing he was worried about in the first place.

Not for his own peril, but for the peril of the drow race.

"So you can't die. You and Drizzt Durden and the Baenre family envoys you control are the last few core elites left in Drow." Of course Jarlaxle knew that Ladislaus Why mention the survival of drow. "If they all die here, your race will be one step closer to complete extinction."

Margarita, Boss Silica, and Earl Slam all smiled. In their opinion, Ladislaus was giving that drow an excellent reason to be a coward.

Although it is a good reason, they still despise the action of changing sides when surrounded by swords, calling it cowardice and treachery.

It's not an unfair idea, but it's not deep enough.

Perhaps Sarzastan caught a little bit of Ladislaus's vein, but he decided to keep silent and let his monarch do the work.

Jones was also watching the development of the situation nervously at this time. When arranging the attack, Ladislaus did not explain why he attacked Jarlaxle, let alone reveal his disposal of Jarlaxle.

Although each is their own master, Jones still hopes that Jarlaxle can survive if given the chance.

In his painful and wandering early memories, there are not many old people who are still alive.

"Jones, help your friend up." Ladislaus was sure that he could get a powerful subordinate today. "Jaraxle, Your Highness Jarlaxle, tell me, are you serving His Majesty Suleiman?"

"Yes." Jarlaxle replied bluntly, since he refused to die, he shouldn't be twitchy.

It's shameful enough to be captured and surrender, but Jarlaxle is not a rigid person, but if he has to be careful, it really makes others and himself sick.

"Is it your mercenary group or the Banrui family, or what other forces are cooperating with the Ottoman Empire?"

"My mercenary group has long been destroyed by the Portuguese battleships. I don't think Ibrahim Pasha thinks that the Banrui family is qualified to cooperate with His Majesty Suleiman. Speaking of this, I would like to express my apologies. I listed the Baenre family after the Habsburg family, they are not qualified to be compared with the great warlock royal family." Jarlaxle apologized for his provocation just now. "I don't really want you to compensate those two barrels of wine."

Ladislaus waved his hand to indicate that this is not important, he has completely forgotten the offense just now: "Why did you choose the Ottoman Empire instead of the Kingdom of Portugal to cooperate? Because you at least have a common belief?"

"There are many reasons. The most important thing is that the Portuguese have done more damage to our lives. They have seized our trade routes." Ladislaus' question shows that he has grasped the essence of the problem. Jarlazol's resistance can only be said Get the knowledge that Ladislaus wants. "As you just said, the Ottomans gave us a channel for trade, and Ibrahim Pasha went into the desert along the Nile River to provide us with food from the Nile River. We need food so much that we can live in the city-state Rizo Drow is already lucky. In fact, most drow have given up civilization and degenerated into nomads. In the past, we laughed at the ignorance of nomadic humans and goblins. Now I know, once forced to accept that way of life, eventually It will inevitably become like that, there are tens of thousands of drow in the city-state, tens of thousands in the desert, [-] or at most [-], this is our entire clan."

Desert nomads are bound to be ignorant and rude, which is forced by life. [

In fact, Jarlaxle still slightly exaggerated the strength of his race unconsciously. The population of the drow city-state is less than [-].

Jarlaxle did not mention Demogauguin's factor at all, which satisfied Ladislaus: "Then my friend, so the Ottoman Empire is competing for influence with the Grapes on the Black Continent. Your people have done their duty, and the Ottomans have little power to punish your treachery. Now do yourself a favor and do me a favor, and find a way to prove your worth to me and to the Habsburgs, Although the service of protecting the country itself is very valuable, but to integrate into the new organization and add the precious lives of your subordinates, you need to provide me with something more."
