Chapter 372 Chapter 375 Hiloai's spies
Ending the day's work, Hiloai · Aznerel returned home. The home here refers to the house of the Asneril family in Myniris, on the edge of the upper city, not far from the residences of the other families.

Although I prefer my own dormitory in the Academy, not only because it is a small tree house, more warm, comfortable and private, but also closer to Dagon, you can go to him whenever you want. And here, there are servants serving almost every door. Everywhere you go, you can hear "Hello, Miss, what are you telling me..."

I'm not a guy without hands or feet, Shiloh thought to himself. Under the guidance of mother since she was a child, Shirouai has cultivated to do everything by herself as much as possible. If she can't do it, she will learn to spell, and spell can always complete her various ideas. She still remembered that when she was a child, there were not so many servants in the family. Even if there are, there are some servants who come here to work during the day and return to their homes at night. Unlike now, these humans and half-elves are stationed in their homes in large numbers, living here day and night, their only purpose in life seems to be to serve the Asnerel family. This is not good, very bad.

In fact, it was only in the last two years that Shirouai felt that this was bad. To be precise, it was after getting to know Dagon. She realized that if you are used to being served, those who are served will become inert, and those who provide services will lose their ideals. "It's right to divide labor and cooperate and improve efficiency. It's wrong to build your own life on the tying of other people's lives."

"How long have you been working here?" He stopped a human maid with a clothes basket in her hand and asked.

"As you said, I have been here for six years." The maid said, "I am very happy to serve the Asneril family."

"If I give you a What do you think about opening a laundry shop and leaving here?"

The maid shook her head vigorously, almost crying. "Please don't drive me away. If I make a mistake, please punish me, and I can definitely change it. My ancestors have served the Asneriel family for life, and I want to do the same."

"You're so stupid." Shiloh patted the maid's head and said, "Okay, the punishment is over, let's keep working!"

For the lifespan of the elves, Shiloh Ai doesn't care about the human servants who come and go. Imagine a person who has a lifespan of 60 years and a dog with a lifespan of more than 10 years. It will be very close. If it is replaced by a grasshopper with a lifespan of 10 months, there will be no profound feeling. A human being faced with a grasshopper with a ten-month lifespan is equivalent to an elves facing a person's complete life. If this person just spends his ten or twenty years serving the elves, it will not attract attention.

Walking up the steps and through the porch, you can always see the human servants, who come and go, weaving through the mansion as if they were the life of the house. Shirouai carefully calculated the ratio of the lifespans of the two races, and suddenly felt that the policy of the elves was a bit strange: it is obvious that only the dwarves can form a relatively more stable and long-term relationship, why did the elves choose to support humans and suppress the dwarves?
It is obviously a stupid move, but there are many elves who enjoy it. Dagon is right, the elves' worst enemy is their own pride.

"Everyone goes out, my room doesn't need to be cleaned all day long. In the future, I won't be allowed to come in here without my order!" Shiloai doesn't like overly tidy bedrooms and study rooms, with all kinds of floral fragrance everywhere , but only without its own smell. She kicked the maid out, kicked the boots with both feet, rubbed and twisted her toes against each other, and jumped to the bed and fell on it.

"Your image is really bad."

"Who?" Shi Luoai looked towards the door, then threw an Icicle and shot it at the closet. At this time, a female arm appeared out of thin air, and a spell shield appeared in her palm, blocking Icicle. Then, the man fully manifested.

"Aunt, I've seen you a long time ago. I just wanted to kick a boot at you and tell you that it's not right to go into other people's rooms." Shirouai rolled over from the bed, coiled up Sitting up, he said, "You're still invisible at home? No wonder your uncle is so afraid of you!"

"It's the women who want to climb on top of your uncle who should be afraid." Tessara snorted , said: "Don't mention the idiot who can't control himself, tell me what you have achieved today. How many votes do you have now?" Half of it." Shirouai shrugged her shoulders and said coquettishly, "Aunt, I don't really want to do it anymore... going to each family to contact each other, and saying unnutritious compliments, is actually an exchange of interests in essence. Okay. It's boring, what a waste of time!"

"Then what do you want to do, study spell, and date your dwarf?" Tessara shook her head and said, "We're from the Asneriel family. Men are only good at making money, and we can only do these things. Don't forget that it was basically just me before, and now I help you. And there is good news: the passage of the Equality Act should be no problem, and the wind will be soon. It will change. You can also reduce the price appropriately, don't give away so many contribution points."

"Eh? What happened?"

"The Prime Minister Nader put Dagon called to his mansion, and the two were in the back garden, eating and drinking while chatting. Judging from the news, the Prime Minister was very satisfied and had already reported to Spirit King. It seems that there should be no problem with the Equality Act , at least the families will no longer think that passing that bill is to cause trouble to the Spirit King."

"Bless Aisi, the Prime Minister called Dagon over, why didn't you tell such an important thing earlier? Me?"

"How do I tell you? The Prime Minister's Guard entered the Academy directly, took Dagon and left. I can't stop them, can I?" Tessara spread out both hands and said: " Although I know where you are, if I told you at that time, you would probably go directly to the Prime Minister's house."

"Of course! Dagon is our family's adviser, and the Prime Minister dragged him directly, which That's not right!" Shirouai waved his fist and said: "If he wants to invite Dagon, he should tell us first, and he can come after permission. His family guard is not a city guard and has no law enforcement power. Even if law enforcement is required , that would have to get permission from Asneril first!"

"Well, I think so too, so I'll go to the Prime Minister in a while and protest to him. You don't Go, I'm afraid that once your temper comes up, the scene will not look good." Tessara said: "I'm here to tell you this, and tell you that the family will come forward. You go too. Tell Dagon what to do, what not to do, and what not to do as a family advisor. By the way, let him move out of the Academy quickly. I hate to see the guards and assassins he draws. "

"You are the Principal!" "Hiroai said: "Let him live in the Academy, the security protection there is much better than this house. Back and forth with so many humans and half-elves, I looked at the face, who knows if there will be hired assassins. "

Tessara snorted, said: "Dare they dare to do it here?" "

Shiloai twitched his lips and said: "Human life is short, and I don't care about myself. That's what the so-called desperados mean." Dagon's self-protection ability is good, but as long as he is attacked here, no matter what happens, other families will feel that our Asneriel's deterrence and actual ability are insufficient. Besides, Academy's security is paid by Academy, why not? "

"Well, if you can think like this, it means you have grown." Tessara said, "You tell Dagon that if he can teach algebra in the Academy, then he can live there forever." "

"I'll tell him." I have some basic incantation books to borrow when I go to the Academy tomorrow to pack. Shirouai stood up, pushed Tessara with both hands, and said, "It's alright, let's go, my sneaky aunt." "

Tessara smiled gracefully and left the room as if floating. Shiloh just returned to the bed and was about to take a nap when she heard a knock on the door. The knocking sound was rhythmic, It was a code word.

So under spell's control, the door opened and a human maid walked in with a hot tub and a towel in hand. She put the tub down and turned to close the room. opened the door, and wiped it on her face. The human girl with the freckles disappeared, and what appeared was Rachele, who had strong facial lines, sharp eyes, and a shallow scar near her nose.

“ Sure enough, you are a good spy. If you want to sneak in, there is nothing to stop you. Shiloai said with a smile: "When did you come back? "

"I came back this morning." Your defense here is so bad, I got in in the afternoon. "Lasiri tapped the back of her neck with her fist, then twisted her waist hard, and while taking off the maid's clothes, she said, "Don't arrange for me to do this kind of work in the future. Pretending to be a dwarf is so tiring, my back hurts all day. You have to give me a few days off. I need to go to the temple for treatment. "

"That's fine. I can also arrange a hot spring for you, just north of Myniris, the property of the Tamik family, only for elves. They gave me two tickets and I'll give them all to you. "Siloai said: "You have to report to work before you recover and enjoy." What happened to what I asked you to do? "

"I checked it out, but it took a lot of effort. "La Xilie took off cleanly, and then opened Shiroai's wardrobe, rummaging through it for light and warm daily winter clothes. "I finally figured out what happened in Jiangu City and Mopan City. "

"Let's talk. "Hiroai said.

"The real reason Dagon is wanted is the inheritance of Jiangu City. He is the only blood and blood of the previous generation Jiangu City lord, Aig Neil, but his father didn't have time to follow suit. Dwarf customs hold formal weddings, and the ceremony is incomplete, so it is considered an illegalimate child. However, this kind of illegalimate child will not be completely incapable of turning over like our elves. As long as the wedding can be made up, or some procedures in the Temple of Ori can be passed, they can still have complete inheritance rights. "

Xiluoai's eyes shined and said: "If he is the lord of Jiangu City, then it will be easier to handle." "

"He's too young and has no roots." But the main reason for his failure was the involvement of the dwarves' elector. "La Xilie said: "The former lord Antoine Neil, the original surname is Pleiba, he is the nephew of the queen of dwarves. During the closure of the city, he was trying to consolidate his rule, and then when the closure was over, he immediately contacted the election king. "

Lassily tidied her hair and said, "I dressed up as a dwarf in Jiangu City, and heard some news that it should be the escort of Iger, the lord of the previous generation, who came back with a former dwarf. The lord's will, but it happened to bump into the guard sent by the election king. Dagon should have been killed, and the whole army of the Golden Hammer Army who elected the king was destroyed. He's pretty good, pretty good..."

Hiroai noticed that Lasiri's movements were slowing down, and snorted, saying, "You don't need to repeat, I can hear you. Don't care how he came out - why is the Golden Hammer Army in Jiangu City? "

"I went to Mopan City, but couldn't find this information." The palace of the elected king is too difficult to enter. The rune of dwarves provides various protections. I am not a real dwarf, so I can hardly crack it. "Lacely said:" But I found one thing, that is, the election king has a special channel to collect the news from the infinite labyrinth. I tried selling a little fake news and made twenty gold coins. I think the biggest possibility is that the former lord's guards leaked the news in the infinite labyrinth. "

Shiroai thought about it and said, "This is also in line with the usual problem of dwarves: lax mouth. Hey, Lahiri, what do you think is the probability of Dagon being the lord of Jiangu City? Can we help him succeed? "

"Don't think about it! The election king has always regarded Jiangu City as his own, and has been doing a lot recently. If you want Dagon to become a lord, then our opponent is actually the elected king instead of the current little lord of Jiangu City. "

"What if quick sword cuts through tangled hemp?" Shiroai waved his hand, and pink flames flew in the air. "As long as I get close to that little lord, he will promise me anything. "

"Haha, okay, just think about it." Lassily bent over and smiled, and said, "I went to the dwarves this time to go around, and the biggest impression is that the dwarves are still quite powerful, especially their rune spells, which are quite magical. Your Fireball or other incantation, to be honest, can be blocked by rune. But aside from rune, dwarves aren't that great. "

"hmph, elves now have rune too, and it won't take a few years to surpass Jiangu clansman." "

Lasiri shrugged, and finally tidied up her clothes. She said, "I'm not a mage, but from the point of view of the curse sword, it's good that the elves can be flush with the dwarves in the rune aspect. I want to Beyond that, there must be something new with breakthrough. By the way, I also heard about the blasting array in Mopan City, and your name was also mentioned in the dwarves. "

"The burst array was actually figured out by Dagon. Shi Luoai tilted his head and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "He gave me all the knowledge of the burst array, which is the best gift for a mage." "

"Okay, I know you like him, but you don't have to be so obvious." If you have any expressions, go to Dagon to act. "Lasiri rolled the eyes and said: "I advise you to dismiss the idea of Dagon being a lord unless you reach an agreement with the Spirit King or the Prime Minister first. "

"What does this mean? "

Lassiere said: "Don't forget, I am not a private soldier of the Asnerel family, I am a spy under the council, and I have heard some rumors. The internal situation of the dwarves is not dictated by the dwarves. The selfishness and desire for power in the election of the king have the support of the elves. If you can find Dagon's support from the top elves, I believe that the election king will think twice and take his hand back from Jiangu City. Hey, the hand he held out wasn't all for him at all—get it? "

Shiloh shook his head and said, "It doesn't sound like it would be difficult to convince the Spirit King, but Dagon will definitely not accept this arrangement." He is a man, sometimes as proud as an elf. "

"Those who have the ability are proud." "Lacely murmured: "How did he wipe out the entire Golden Hammer Army?" I really want to ask him. "

"Hi, Lacie! Shirouai didn't seem to hear it, she asked, "Are you interested in working for the Asneril family? My treatment here is no worse than that of the Council, and my leader is better than the guys in the Council, right? "

"Then you can complete the formalities for me as soon as possible. "Lacely nodded," said: "As long as it's not a boring bodyguard job, even if I drink tea with you every day. Also, don't make me dress up as a dwarf anymore, my waist can't take it anymore. ”
