The red dragon just wants to do whatever he wants - Chapter 324
c323 Holy dragon
After careful consideration, Landis, the Scale of Justice, finally agreed to David’s somewhat outrageous request.
However, the ‘just’ Metal Dragon King still had some concerns about this abolition bill that had touched the interests of the Metal Dragon and was bound to arouse large-scale public opinion:
Since David wanted to build a city for the elves, he had to find a way to do it himself.
Funds, manpower, plan formulation and implementation, etc., etc., none of which should consume a huge amount of time, energy and financial resources.
When David solves these problems one by one, and when the city is built, it may be dozens or even hundreds of years later.
By that time, even if there is still opposition from the giant dragon, the obstacles and trends of thought have almost been transformed.
But whether it was the Landiss or the ancient dragons of the Senate who had this rigid idea, they still far underestimated David’s execution ability in promoting this decision.
David, who had received the official promise from the royal court, announced the abolition of slavery in Gunshan Square that day, which even the North Wind Dragon Court had not warmed up to. He announced to the dragons and elves who looked at them like crazy:
“For the freedom of the elves!
“For the promotion of law and civilization!
“To create this city of light!
“I, Himol Krupskaya, am willing to donate all my private treasures, and as evidence by today’s oath, all the proceeds from the future will be used before this city-state is built!”
As soon as these words came out, some elves who longed for freedom were moved to tears and knelt on the ground.
Looking at David’s eyes, it was simply that the Holy Dragon was alive, more merciful than their indifferent elves and gods.
The dragons, including Dragon King Landis, were stunned at that time.
In order to carry out this ‘merciful’ move, he actually had to give up all his private treasures. What a terrible determination and noble sentiment!
Just this act of cutting off greed is enough to embark on the path of becoming the Dragon of Gods!
What’s more, it also includes all subsequent income!
But what no other dragon knows except David himself is that these extraneous wealth are actually of little use to him now.
In the end, he still has to find a way to return to his own world line by lighting the divine fire.
And if you don’t bring foreign things like treasure with you in life or take them with you in death, why should you keep them?
But no matter what he thinks, others can only see how he does it.
For a time, people who heard it gathered in the scene.
Many confused elves felt as if they had seen their own savior.
Just as David expected, many metal dragons took the lead in responding to the call for their own different purposes and granted freedom to the elves under their command.
But if David doesn’t hesitate to donate his treasure, then forget it.
If you put in some effort, you already feel noble enough.
So David’s siege plan only took one day from proposal to implementation and even groundbreaking.
Their execution was so efficient and so decisive that some of the female dragons’ hind legs became numb and their tails swung like windmills.
If David hadn’t been a young dragon, he would have received some slightly tempting invitations.
Of course, any matter involving entangled interests must have two sides. How many people support it, there are more people who oppose it.
But what David also didn’t expect was that the first group to jump out to oppose was not the metal dragons that had a large number of elven slaves.
But the elf himself
Yes, some elves didn’t have time to celebrate their upcoming freedom, but other elves became anxious first.
David was stunned for a moment when he heard the news, but soon figured out the reason.
A very simple reason is that after kneeling for a long time, you get used to it, and you feel that just kneeling and licking like this is quite good.
And this kind of phenomenon and group is not rare in every world.
Just like Blue Star before David’s time travel, many years after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, some people still have braids, and some people still have braids in their hearts even if they cut off their braids.
Slavery also has inertia, and it takes time to iterate.
It has been more than four thousand years since the elves came and integrated into this world.
Many elves have served the dragon since their ancestors, and some may have reached the seventh or eighth generation.
Some elves may be lucky enough to serve the dragon clan that is noble enough, then these elves will have relatively high status and power over their own clansmen.
And once the Dragon King’s Court grants freedom to every elf as David requested, it also means that the elves will become “equal” again.
How does this work?
Doesn’t that mean going back to before immigration? !
How else can I be the ‘master of men’ who is ‘under the dragon and above the elves’?
David was naturally too lazy to pay attention to such a pariah.
It’s all Tiamat’s mission anyway.
As long as the Dragonfall War is successfully postponed, and as long as the elves obediently step into the siege of the city, the rest has nothing to do with him.
But David can ignore other elves, but he can’t face this one.
As soon as David returned to his lair that day, he saw Eilistraee kneeling there:
“Your Highness.”
“The Dragon Court has issued an announcement, Eilistraee, you are free.”
Faced with David’s tactful eviction, the elf princess neither expressed compliance nor openly resisted.
But when I raised my pointed chin and looked up, tears filled my eyes:
“Your Highness, what did Eilistraee do not do well enough?”
At that time, Eilistraee was far from being the strong and independent dark girl who led a group of drow in the pursuit of light and freedom in later generations.
He was just a pawn thrown out by his cruel father and neurotic mother.
If David hadn’t appeared in this world, she would probably have made the same mistake of being involved in the elf rebellion by her mother Aroshi and eventually being relegated to the Underdark together.
Thinking of this, David smiled, raised the tip of his tail and patted her head gently:
“No, you’ve done a good job.”
But just as some hope showed in Eilistraee’s eyes, it was ruthlessly shattered by David’s next words:
“But you must understand that each of our existences is born with its own challenges and missions that must be faced.
“I am already walking on my own path.
“Eilistraee, one day, you will also find yours.”
A road to redemption that wanders between the struggles between the elven gods and the Spider Queen.
Become the dark girl believed in by the drows like Zolthiat and Chretien.
But that is another world line after all.
If the fate of this world is successfully rewritten by you, the other party may not have the chance to ‘evolve’ to that point.
This is cruel and realistic.
Thinking of this, David immediately sighed amidst the elf girl’s cries:
“Eilistraee, you must leave. I am the dragon who initiated this abolition bill. If you are still by my side like a slave, this action will become a complete joke.”
“But…but” the elf girl was already sobbing and choked with sobs.
David changed his tone: “But if you miss me, you are always welcome to come back and visit me as a friend.”
“Friend?” Eilistraee raised her head with tears in her eyes.
It seems that the word friend is too unfamiliar to this princess of the elves and gods.
Due to her noble birth, she was destined to be unable to have real friends.
Even her brother Viren, the only brother she could play with when she was young, gradually became strange and greedy as she grew up, which frightened her.
On the contrary, when he was sent to the Dragon King’s Court as a slave and hostage by his father in despair, he accidentally saw the light.
The light that once again illuminated her dark life.
And she was like the moth flying into the flame, she just wanted to pursue it without hesitation.
“Yes, instead of looking up, it’s better to stand side by side, right? My friend, Miss Eilistraee.” David showed a gentle smile, but there was only an almost indifferent sense in his eyes.
He could finally see that no matter which world they were in, elves were not monolithic.
More often than not, they are kidnapped on a chariot by the will of higher-ups and even the gods.
Now that there are conditions and opportunities to implement differentiation, David doesn’t mind pushing it.
When he sees his daughter and believers drawing swords towards him, Corellon’s expression must be very exciting.
But after all, Eilistraee, who couldn’t see Dai Wei’s terrible thoughts, was still immersed in indescribable joy and emotion. She hugged David’s tail and couldn’t help stroking it with her face:
“Well, friend. Thank you, my dear friend, His Highness Himmel.”
When she came to her senses, she found that she had been carried out of the nest by David’s tail.
Just when Eilistraee was confused, another small package was thrown out, which was the poor belongings she had saved with David.
“Come on, I’m going to sleep.” David’s urging voice, “There is no woman in my heart, I draw my sword to be the God of Nature” came from the lair.
“Oh” Eilistraee then hugged her little package, pouted her lips, looked back pitifully, and left down the mountain with three steps.
And just when this dark girl from the future arrived at the Elf City that had just started construction under the mountains with her luggage and a confused look on her face.
A piece of bad news was brought back by the giant dragon far ahead:
In the territory of the five-colored dragons, Tiamat ordered the dragons to hunt down the elves and imprison them in camps, and attack the free elf strongholds in the wilderness.
A large number of elven slaves and refugees are taking refuge in the territory of the metal dragon.
For a time, under the rule of the North Wind Dragon King’s Court, all the elves who originally agreed and opposed were boiling.
The desire of liberals to build their own city-state has become stronger and stronger.
The opposition is increasingly afraid of this sudden ‘freedom’.
They don’t need this freedom, they just want to hug the metal dragon master’s thick thighs!
It seems that only in this way can we get enough comfort under the catastrophe that everyone in the elves is panicking about.
It’s just that no matter how hard the two factions hold their own opinions and even openly fight each other, they have reached an absurd consensus.
That is compared to Tiamat, the Five-Colored Dragon Queen who brandished the Death Scythe at the slightest disagreement.
His Royal Highness Prince ‘Shimore’.
He is simply a holy dragon walking in the world!
