114 Setting off for Negotiation
When Su Ming heard the Long Saber Guard’s answer, his eyes flickered.
Based on the current situation, he had to deal with this matter immediately.
Otherwise, the other party’s tribal dolls would quickly sense that something was wrong, regardless of whether they sent the Long Saber Guards or escorted them back to the Elf tribe.
By then, the resources in the steel mine would definitely not be able to be hidden.
If other people discovered that the steel mine was so rich in resources, there would inevitably be some conflicts between the two tribes.
When he thought of this, Su Ming narrowed his eyes.
“Mike, keep an eye on them. I’ll call for help.”
After that, Su Ming asked the Elf Warriors to come over and escort these people back to the tribe.
Su Ming soon brought the Long Saber Guard to Zelda’s room.
Once he heard Su Ming’s brief account of the situation, Zelda’s expression changed slightly.
“Great Prophet, do you mean that you want to take the initiative to attack this human tribe?”
When Su Ming heard that, he first shook his head.
On the way here, Su Ming had already thought of how he was going to discuss what to do next with Zelda.
When he heard Zelda’s question, Su Ming immediately answered, “We’re actually not too sure what the human tribe’s attitude toward us is.”
“So, I plan to take some people, as well as the people from the human tribe that we’ve captured, to the other tribe to negotiate.
“If we can’t reach a friendly agreement with the other party, then conflict and war will be inevitable.”
Zelda’s eyes turned solemn, but she did not object.
Because she knew very well that what Su Ming had just said was the truth they were facing.
Although they were in the process of building and developing the town, steel mines were an indispensable resource for their construction.
Therefore, if the other party had any ideas about the steel mine, they would not back down!
Thinking of this, Zelda stood up from her seat and said solemnly, “Then, Great Prophet, let me go with you to the other tribe to negotiate!”
Su Ming was momentarily stunned when he heard that, and the corners of his lips twitched.
“No need, Commander Zelda,” he quickly refused. “You should stay in the tribe and lead it. This is what you should do the most.”
As Su Ming spoke, he even nodded his head.
Su Ming did not dare to bring Zelda over to negotiate.
After all, Zelda was the commander of the Elf Valley and an NPC.
If the other party was really unreasonable and they started to fire as soon as they went over, they would be in trouble.
As a player, Su Ming could be resurrected.
However, if Zelda was really killed by a group of people, she would really be gone.
Zelda frowned slightly when she heard this.
“If you can negotiate, why can’t I? As the leader of the Elven race, how can I let the Prophet risk his life?”
When Su Ming heard that, he sighed helplessly and said, “You don’t have to worry about this. If you trust me, just do as I say.”
when Zelda heard that, she frowned, as if she wanted to say something more, but she was cut off by Su Ming.
“Alright, just do as I say!”
At that moment, Su Ming’s expression was incredibly firm and determined. Zelda’s expression changed slightly for a moment before she could only nod her head in slight resignation.
“Since you said so, Great Prophet, then I’ll go. However, if you encounter any danger, you must remember to contact the tribe immediately.”
When Su Ming heard this, he nodded. “I’ll bring some Warriors with me to negotiate. At the very least, I’ll make the other party feel that they won’t be able to gain anything by fighting.”
Zelda heaved a sigh of relief.
Once he walked out of Zelda’s room, Su Ming went straight to the fortress at the entrance of the valley.
Once he picked another hundred Elf Warriors from the group, Su Ming had someone call Chen Yixue.
After he told Chen Yixue about what had happened, Su Ming noticed that Chen Yixue’s expression had suddenly turned into one of excitement.
“Great Prophet, do you mean that we are about to start a war with them?”
Chen Yixue’s face was full of anticipation when she said this.
Su Ming looked at her and could not help but be slightly stunned.
Only then did he remember that Chen Yixue seemed to be a war fanatic.
Su Ming shook his head and his attitude became more serious.
“We’re going there this time to have a friendly negotiation. You can’t fight with them easily, understand?”
When Chen Yixue heard this, she let out an ‘oh’ in a somewhat aggrieved manner before continuing, “What if they make the first move?”
Su Ming cast her a glance and shook his head in slight resignation. “Then you’ll have to see how it goes. But remember not to take the initiative.”
Chen Yixue’s eyes lit up and she quickly nodded.
“Alright, go to the Orc tribe and pick out about 100 Orcs.”
Su Ming only planned to bring one hundred Elf Warriors and one hundred Orcs with him.
The Elven Warriors were the main combat force, and that was needless to say.
The reason why he had to bring 100 Orcs was that they had a strong charging ability during a conflict and could make the other side unable to organize an effective attack.
Apart from that, the Orcs’s huge bodies naturally had a strong deterrent force.
With them present, the other party would naturally be somewhat cautious and would not dare to make a move on them so easily.
Before long, the people were all ready and they waited for Su Ming’s orders at the entrance of the valley.
As for the other Warriors who were not chosen by Su Ming, they were looking at the Warriors who were chosen with envy.
In their eyes, it was an honor to be able to go on an expedition with Su Ming.
As for the late Orcs, they let out earth-shaking roars the moment they reached the entrance of the Elf Valley.
When the Long Saber Guard and the other members of his team saw this, the corners of their eyes could not help but twitch.
They had originally thought that Su Ming’s intention to go to their tribe to negotiate was a rather foolish thing to do.
However, it seemed like they were the ones who were stupid!
Just by looking at the combat power of these people, his own tribe might not be a match for them!
Thinking of this, the Long Saber Guards looked at each other and saw the worry in each other’s eyes.
