Chapter 110
Chapter 110
After confirming that the plague alarm had been lifted, Fran sent soldiers to deliver the iron-platinum box to Lucius' residence.
The plague has been dealt with, which is definitely good news for Sarn Gable.But when the turmoil came to a close, Lucius was once again disappointed.For the way this plague had ended clearly meant that his own goals had once again failed.
Human diseases are relieved by the isolation of the cause of the ore.But Lucius' own "cause" was because of his magical power that he was unwilling to give up.In principle, the baptism of the elves is equivalent to Lucius' magic power to isolate ore and human patients.But this is obviously the last way Lucius wants to accept.
Unwilling to give up, he and Frann asked for all the iron-platinum ore, and planned to continue the research.
Thranduy didn't stop Lucius when he asked Fran for the ore, but asked Lucius' purpose after they returned to an environment where all human soldiers were shielded.
"As a pharmacist and therapist, isn't it normal for me to want to continue researching this?" Lucius replied lightly.
The Elf King glanced at Lucius' eyes and shook his head slightly: "I can't understand the necessity of your research on this ore."
Lucius' right hand was behind his back, his left hand was hanging down naturally, looking at Thranduil.He pretended to be relaxed and smiled, but his right hand behind his back clenched his fist.
In this case, he was really not sure what kind of explanation he should give.
When Thranduy didn't pay attention, no matter how absurd the statement was, he could only slightly twitch the corner of his mouth.But when he began to observe carefully, no matter how rigorous the logic seemed, he could not escape the fate of being penetrated.
Lucius tried to avoid or reduce Thranduil's desire to further explore his purpose, but his efforts were often in vain.In his task of concealing the Elven King, the greatest difficulty he encountered came from Thranduy's unpredictable knowledge system.
Compared with elves who were five or six hundred years old, Thranduil really knew too much.
As a precious metal sought after by humans and dwarves, iron-platinum ore is not uncommon.As ore, the small batch that is now being mothballed is no different.But they can cause disasters in Sarn Gable.Although the source of the disaster lies in the fact that the dark power above the ore has been confirmed, what Lucius wants to explore is the reason why this batch of iron and platinum is different from other ores, just as his elf has become different from other ores. The elves are different for a reason.
Thranduil could guess that he had the power to block the curse, so couldn't he speculate further?
"In the fortress, human beings have no way to dispose of these ores. If they are accidentally circulated, we cannot guarantee whether the cured human beings will have a relapse. Since I am the only one who can properly seal it up, it is also Buddha who keeps it for me. The result Lane wants most." Lucius did not directly answer the question about "necessity", but gave a plausible explanation.
The Elf King is obviously very sensitive to the topic of light and darkness, so Lucius deliberately avoided this topic to dissuade Thranduil from his vigilance.
But then, Lucius realized that he seemed to have missed the point.
Thranduil looked at him, and his eyes quickly changed from scrutiny to worry. He glanced at the box where the ore was stored, and said slowly, "The problems involved in these ores are not as simple as you think."
This made Lucius stunned.Some were amazed at the message conveyed by Thranduil's words.
In other words, has the unknown information he wanted to explore actually been stored in the memory of the Elf King as an old experience?
He couldn't help asking: "What issues are these ores involved?"
But in the blink of an eye, the secretive and scouts changed directions, and Thranduil looked deep, but he was not ready to open his mouth to explain anything.
"If you already know the answer, why should I waste my time on a clueless exploration?" Lucius said with a frown.
"I don't support you to continue your search." Thranduy frowned, emphasizing his position.
"If you have enough time, or you can answer me," Seeing that Lucius was about to speak again, Thranduil added another question before him, "Solve the problem of human plague, you What are you going to do next?"
Because the ability to block the dark curse was seen through and dominated Lucius' thinking, he guessed wrongly about Thranduil's real intention.
Although the proactive inquiry from the Elf King was unprecedented, Lucius was surprised, but he didn't have the slightest feeling of being favored.
In fact, Lucius had been planning to find a chance to get out of Thranduil's sight when he got the iron-platinum ore in the field that he always thought hadn't been noticed by the Elven King.Maybe he'll take the opportunity to get back to the docks first, and then leave Sarn Gable directly on some suitable night.
But if Thranduil's attention had already been locked on his whereabouts, the result of his sudden departure was nothing more than a copy of his journey from the woodland kingdom to Sarn Gable.
So he asked back.
"It's been half a year since you left, when are you going to return to the Woodland Kingdom?"
But what Lucius did not expect was that Thranduy looked at him intently, and actually replied very directly: "Until you are willing to go back with me, I will always follow you."
Lucius wasn't the only one who was surprised by this statement.Annis and Hadien, who were also present but outside the scope of the conversation, also showed shocked expressions at the same time.
Although the tone was still undeniable, the content of the order had exceeded their expectations of Thranduil.This sentence was so abrupt that it didn't look like it was spoken by the Elf King.
Not to mention Lucius and Annis who ran out of the elven territory without authorization, Hadion was already extremely nervous.
Lucius cast a glance at Hadion, who had been signaling him anxiously, and slowly fixed his eyes between Thranduy's eyes. The twitching in his eyes just now gradually settled, and he spoke slowly.
"Woodland Kingdom needs your attention far more than me."
Thranduil frowned when he met Lucius' calm eyes.
There seemed to be a little smile in those eyes, but when he talked about himself, there was no turbulence or emotion.
Lucius's smile is not like an elf, but very much like a human nobleman. It is reserved and tactful, and seems to be polite, but in fact, only the coldness really reaches the heart.
Thranduy knew very well that Lucius never used a confrontational tone, but expressed a more determined resistance than Legolas.And the reason why he didn't want to stay in his line of sight was actually very clear.
"You know the reason why I came to you." Thranduil said, "If you don't accept baptism, you will never become a real elf. Being outside the rules of this world will only make you have no The way is protected by the rules of this world. Do you really want your soul to perish completely after death?"
Knowing the truth about Lucius' departure for the first time, Annis subconsciously took a step back, showing a horrified expression, and Thranduy also heard Harden's shallow gasp behind him.
However, Lucius stood there motionless, and he couldn't even shake his smile anymore.
Thranduy looked at Lucius in front of him who no longer retreated humbly, but could only feel that the other party was getting farther and farther away from his control: "You really think that your special ability is more important than your right to live? Is it important?"
"You also said yourself that you have completed your mission in that world, and you have also cut off the connection with that world. Why is it that only this ability makes you unable to give up."
Thranduil never explained his kindness, nor was he repeatedly rejected.
However, as he moved forward, he only saw Lucius retreating more and more towards the boundless darkness behind him.The more you force but the more out of control the situation breeds strands of irritability.His emotions began to add a little heat to the irritability and anger, but the elf in front of him seemed to be wrapped in ice and snow, losing its temperature.
Under Thranduil's gaze, Lucius twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a mocking smile: "Accept baptism. Lose power." The gentle tone, which is completely opposite to that of the Elf King, is like a simple word uttered from his mouth carefully. , "Then live an ordinary life in the woodland kingdom as an ordinary elf, and accept your protection? In this way, you can escape from danger and death?"
"I will protect my kingdom, and you," Thranduil took half a step forward, slowing down his tone, "you have never been the ordinary elf you said."
"I have always believed in my own strength, wherever it may be. If you insist on changing my mind, I am afraid you will be disappointed."
Lucius replied resolutely, and Thranduy, who was trying to change his tough attitude for the first time, hit a wall.He immediately straightened his face: "If you insist on not being baptized, I will not allow you to act alone outside the kingdom."
Lucius raised his eyes to look at Thranduil, and there was an emotion in his eyes that Thranduil didn't understand.It seemed to be an inquiry, with doubts.But there is also a more important meaning, which makes the Elf King feel a light rope lingering in his heart at the moment he captured. The answer is like the warm nectar that is about to overflow from the inclined bottle mouth, but it is at the most critical angle. He was blocked by his tightened thinking in this desired position.
"Why." Lucius' voice was suddenly as soft as the fluff that was lifted into the air by a pair of hands, and it slowly passed Thranduil's ears, "Why are you so obsessed with protecting me?"
The breath in the stare at each other seemed soft and heavy.Thranduil was stunned, and didn't even notice the sudden change in Lucius's usual rigorous address.After a long time, he gave a still rigid answer: "Because you are my clan."
The moment the Elf King spoke, Hadion, who had been watching the opposing sides in silence and shock, suddenly had a bad premonition.Sure enough, before the words were finished, he noticed the fleeting disappointment on the corner of Lucius's smiling mouth and the corners of his downcast eyes.
Harden looked nervously in Thranduil's direction, but found that the Elf King didn't capture the true meaning behind Lucius' smile at all.
"Oh, that's the case." Lucius sneered, and walked out of the room beyond Thranduil, "I can't change your decision, so you can do whatever you want!"
The author has something to say: due to illness a few days ago, the agreed weekly watch was late, sorry.According to the previous practice, there will be a chapter outside of the weekly update to make up for the apology.However, Yuanyuan can't guarantee the update time of the due chapter, because there are a little more things in July...
Then, the long plague is over, and Lucius and the king will also leave this pitiful Sarn Gabor and Amon Han fortress.Please look forward to the next episode!
