My Right Hand Allows Me to Merge Thousands of Races-Chapter 104 - 87: Forbidden Curse: Life Sanction (Triple Combo)_4
’He calls me the War God... Could it be that he always knew what was happening here? Then why didn’t they send a more formidable expert to support us?’
Lu Xun’s heart slightly stirred, but he didn’t show it on his face. He nodded slightly to the elder and said in a deep voice:
"I just lent a hand. Ambassador, there’s no need for courtesy."
"Let’s save the small talk for later. We should discuss the matter at hand first." Laike smiled, his aged eyes slowly moving over the crowd before finally resting on Wei’Er:
"I saw everything. You did very well, Wei’Er."
Wei’Er shook her head and said sternly, "This time, there were many unexpected incidents. We weren’t well-prepared, our intelligence was incomplete, and the operation nearly failed. Nine warriors died, and four were seriously injured... All of this resulted from my mistakes, and I cannot shirk this responsibility."
If it weren’t for Lu Xun’s help, they would have had to break the rules to successfully rescue everyone.
"Alright, don’t blame yourself."
Ambassador Laike said to her and then turned his head, looking into the empty space on one side: "What do you think, Speaker Sun, how do you want to handle this matter?"
"Honorable Ambassador, I saw everything. The evidence is ironclad and irrefutable... let’s proceed according to the agreement we previously discussed." — A strange voice sounded, and another holographic projection appeared out of thin air, showing a middle-aged man in a suit.
Everyone was taken aback and soon surprised.
Speaker Sun!
Another prominent figure.
The Human Federation has over a thousand self-looping cities in total.
The Federation Council is the highest political institution of the Human Alliance.
Below it, there is the State Assembly.
Jinghai City belongs to one of the small self-looping cities on the southwestern frontier of Lanzhou, one of the eleven states in the Human Alliance.
The person speaking with Ambassador Laike is the Speaker of Lanzhou.
In front of such high-level figures, the Xu Family and Li Family are nothing.
An elf smuggling case has alarmed so many bigwigs.
Only then did Lu Xun realize what was happening.
It turns out this operation wasn’t a secret mission conducted by the Elf Race without informing the Human Federation.
The upper echelons of the two species had long established an agreement.
The incident occurred on Human Federation territory, and the Elf Race received intelligence provided by the "mysterious seller" who abducted the elves.
They knew well that the other party was deliberately fanning flames and sowing discord between the two species.
But it was a transparent plot.
The Elf Race wanted to rescue their abducted kin but didn’t trust the humans entirely to investigate.
For such a matter as rescuing their people, doing it themselves feels more reassured.
After negotiation, the two species reached an agreement - if the elves wanted to investigate on their own, they could... but without conclusive evidence, they couldn’t act rashly, had to follow the rules, and try to control the intensity of the conflict to avoid causing public panic.
This has been the seventh "elf smuggling case" that occurred this year.
The super sniper rifles, various heavy weapons, and the Magic Net Barrier that Wei’Er and the servant army managed to bring were probably directly rented from the Human Alliance Military.
The moment Speaker Sun appeared, all the Inner Guard and Public Security Bureau personnel outside didn’t move, evidently having received orders to withdraw from the area.
But Lu Xun was curious about what Speaker Sun meant by "handle it according to the agreement."
Without conclusive evidence, they had to follow the rules... does that mean, once there is conclusive evidence, the Human Alliance would tacitly permit the Elf Race to act as they please?
As this thought just formed, Ambassador Laike’s next words confirmed Lu Xun’s speculation—
"It is appreciated that Speaker Sun upholds the agreement. Then we’ll hand these involved individuals over to us, rest assured, we can handle it within two minutes without causing panic among your population."
"Of course, the friendship between our two species has lasted thirty thousand years and remains a trustworthy alliance... history has proven this." Speaker Sun nodded with a smile, glanced at the time, and politely said, "I have another meeting to attend, so I’ll take my leave first. See you later."
Beep~
The holographic projection disappeared.
"I have to take care of some business too; I’ll leave the rest to Agatha."
After sending off Speaker Sun, Ambassador Laike again turned his gaze on those present.
"Agatha..." Wei’Er was stunned, seemingly surprised, "Is the High Priestess going to step in?"
"Yes, she happens to be free today. Ah, she’s already here."
Buzz~
Just after he finished speaking.
Suddenly, over the Xu Family Mansion, the winds rose and clouds surged, the space was torn apart, and a giant rift appeared in the sky.
A naked foot stepped out, barefoot.
Next, an elf woman dressed in a deep purple court magic robe and holding a crimson-gold magic staff appeared.
Her features were exquisite, and her absolutely beautiful face bore an indifferent expression, her ears long and pointed, paired with the luxurious court magic robe, exuding a chilling and noble aura.
[Intrusion alert! Intrusion alert!]
[Sky defense system breached... intruder detected... threat level assessment underway...]
[Assessment result: Catastrophe Level life form!]
[Danger level: Ten!]
[Request to execute Emergency Response Plan number four... request denied... authorization not granted... City Lord’s order received... threat level reassessed... assessed as zero.]
[Alert has been lifted, citizens are advised not to panic...]
The entire city’s war horn suddenly blared, yet before the six million citizens of Jinghai City could react, the alert was inexplicably lifted.
Clearly, the higher-ups had already communicated; the visitor is an ally, not an enemy.
This Elf High Priestess, directly from thousands of miles away, tore through space and teleported into Jinghai City.
Upon her arrival, her body slowly descended.
Amid the rumbling noise, the ground parted like the sea, revealing the underground space.
"Greetings to the High Priestess." Wei’Er bowed and saluted, "I’ll leave this to you."
"Hmm." Agatha nodded, her cool gaze fixed on those "canned elves."
Whoosh!
With a slight movement of her left index finger, the space beside her tore apart, opening a dark portal.
Bang bang bang...
The containers successively cracked open, and nutrient fluids spilled all over the place.
The elves were ensnared by a ribbon-like green light, then ushered into the portal.
After finishing, she was about to leave but paused, unable to resist glancing at Wei’Er:
"It’s only been over a hundred years, and little Wei’Er has grown this much? Almost an adult?"
"Thank you for your concern, High Priestess." Wei’Er replied politely, "Indeed, I’ve grown up—coming of age in two months."
Lu Xun: "..."
Damn, do you elves have some misunderstanding about "adulthood"?
Is this the arrogance of the Longevity Species?
He couldn’t help but grumble.
"I’ll take care of things here; we can talk in a bit." Agatha the High Priestess nodded.
The "in a bit" here likely meant "a few years" later.
As she turned, the space in front of her automatically opened, she lifted her right foot to step inside, and as she lifted her left foot, she was back in the sky above Jinghai City.
"Wait! Have mercy! Have mercy!"
An aircraft burst through the sky, and the 187-year-old Speaker of the Li Family shouted in fear and pleaded:
"The guilty have names, the debtors are accountable. I request to submit to the law’s sanction! All culpability falls on me alone, many in the Li Family are innocent, you cannot indiscriminately kill the innocent, cannot trample the Human Federation’s laws!"
However, no matter how he pleaded, the beautiful Elf High Priestess remained expressionless.
"Whether life is innocent, life will judge."
She extended her delicate hand from the wide sleeve of her robe, palm facing down, making the final judgment with a voice devoid of any emotion—
"Forbidden Curse: Life Sanction!"
