"You're the most shameless guy I've ever seen."
Lin Xue's voice came through the spiritual connection.
I smirked, "This is called a sharp mind. Let's see how Victor can keep pretending."
Sure enough, as soon as I finished my words, Victor's face turned pale. This so-called proposal was too impactful. The poor human envoy felt a loud bang in his head and almost fainted on the spot.
This was a proposal? Even the most shameless conspirator would not dare to make a public statement. How could it be a proposal in front of the representatives of all the major races in the world? Oh my god! Victor's words were just for venting his anger, but they were taken seriously by the Oracle and made it into a proposal!?
The representatives of all the races were also stunned. They did not know whether I was serious or just joking. No matter if it was giving up an ally who had lost the ability to fight or giving up an ally who had an internal crisis, these were things that could never be openly discussed. Even a real conspirator would not dare to say these things in public. But now, the Oracle had made it into a proposal! He even asked everyone to vote on it!
What was even worse was that the Oracle said something else.
The above proposal was made by the human envoy Victor on behalf of all the humans in the Alliance …
As soon as he said that, no matter whether this ridiculous proposal would be passed or not — of course, anyone with a higher IQ than the table could guess that this proposal would never be passed — Victor would become the sinner of the human race. His stupid and impulsive words would make the human race and even the entire Alliance lose face, and even gain him a disgraceful reputation …
"I … I didn't mean that …" Victor was still sweating profusely, but he finally recovered a little bit of his ability to think logically. He hurriedly explained, "I … I didn't mean it to the allies in the Salvation Army … Yes, I meant it to the undead! They are a bunch of sinister and dangerous creatures. We must be vigilant! Also, I was just expressing my personal opinion. It has nothing to do with the human race in the Alliance … "
"Human," I interrupted Victor, who had almost lost his ability to think. I tried to release some of my kingly aura like Sandora did. Unfortunately, I realized that if I continued, I would not be able to release my kingly aura. Therefore, I had to continue speaking calmly. "I need to remind you that this is the conference hall of the Salvation Army. When you enter this hall, you are not an individual, but an envoy representing the entire human race. Every word you say represents the will of the entire human race. Your attitude towards anyone here represents the attitude of the entire human race towards all the races in the world. You have been taught the doctrine of the Holy Knight since you were a child, so you should also know the doctrine of equality and justice. Do you still have unreasonable prejudice against others after decades of Holy Knight education?"
Victor's lips twitched, but he could not say anything. He was not stupid. Now, he could clearly see that the Oracle was unabashedly defending the undead creatures. His words had completely annoyed these powerful gods, so the wisest thing to do now was to remain silent.
Looking at Victor lowering his head, of course, I did not think that this guy's opinion had been changed by my words. Confucius once said that the brains of Holy Knights were all made of cowhide, and according to my experience, the old nobles were synonymous with stubbornness. Although I thought that I was elegant, handsome, intelligent, far-sighted, and full of kingly aura … In short, I was much better than the demi-immortal who seemed to be well-educated and kind on the surface but was actually as dark as a sewer that had not been opened for 40 years. Even though I was such an excellent person, I still did not think that my words could change this stubborn uncle in front of me to change his ways and drink with the undead creatures. Right now, his silence was only a wise choice. To change this guy's opinion, it would take more than a few words.
Of course, my goal was only to show my stance and let everyone here clearly understand our attitude towards the Forsaken, as well as to make the few unstable people like Victor more obedient. I was not strong enough to change the minds of everyone in the world by myself.
Yep, although I was elegant, handsome, intelligent, and sharp-tongued …
Several pairs of eyes stared at me at the same time. Lin Xue's mental connection with me was unprecedentedly strong, "Shut up!"
"… Sorry, I sent it to everyone …"
After praising myself in my heart, I finally recovered from the sense of accomplishment of almost scaring a Holy Knight who was also a major noble to tears. Coincidentally, I felt a gaze in my direction. Looking up, Sylvanas who was sitting at the conference table below was looking in my direction. From her blood-red eyes, I could see a mixture of gratitude and confusion.
Gratitude because I had clearly expressed my support for the Forsaken, but confusion because she could not understand why I was so biased towards the Forsaken.
Back when she was still the Queen of the City of Gloom, it would have been understandable for me to show goodwill towards the Forsaken because at that time, the Forsaken were still a powerful ally, but now …
To be honest, Sylvanas understood that she had completely lost her value to the Salvation Army. Before this, the Forsaken hadn't contributed enough to the God Envoys, so why was the God Envoys still willing to risk losing the trust of other species to help a species that had lost all value and was almost infamous?
Sylvanas, who was used to thinking in terms of benefits and goals, found it difficult to understand why I would make such a decision. From her point of view, there was no benefit in helping the Forsaken who had fallen into such a predicament.
Was it really only because of the so-called God's benevolence?
Sylvanas was a little surprised as to why she would suddenly have such a thought. Ever since she woke up as an Undead, she no longer believed in any God. Even the man who was referred to as God, to her, was merely a … friend who helped the Forsaken escape from the quagmire.
Everyone present knew that this somewhat nonsensical proposal was just an excuse the God Envoys used to mock Victor. Of course, no one would really discuss this proposal … Alright, there was an exception. A saltwater creature who had been staring at the little Goddess who was spreading her handkerchief and drinking her afternoon tea with starry eyes stupidly asked, "Ah, God Envoys, what does that proposal mean?"
As the Naga Emissaries fell to the ground with blood spurting out of their mouths, I prayed to God for the first time in my life: Oh God! Hurry up and put this girl's head back into the furnace!
This meeting, which should have been solemn and grand and would eventually be recorded in the annals of history in the form of a legend, ended in such a boring and nonsensical atmosphere. It wasn't that the meeting was fruitless, it was just that at the end of the meeting, half of us were snoring on the podium, which made me feel regretful. However, no matter what, the super allied forces that Lin Xue had planned finally had an embryonic form on this day. What was left was to let these newly united races familiarize themselves with each other as soon as possible, as well as do their best to mobilize their subsidiary races. This was also one of the things that we unanimously agreed on during the meeting. Then, Lin Xue would do her best to predict the future, striving to find the enemy's movements before they arrive. This wasn't an easy task. The enemy's commander, who had yet to surface, wasn't an idiot. Since he had such a detailed grasp of our movements, he definitely knew how much of an influence a prophet could have on the entire war. Thus, he would definitely do his best to interfere with Lin Xue's prophecy ability. Reality had proven this point. The future that Miss Lin had predicted was extremely strange, from the mighty frog army sweeping through Kalimdor to Santa Claus descending from the sky. It was obvious that this kind of prophecy result was the result of her ability being purposefully interfered with …
Therefore, we could only settle for the next best thing. We gave up on trying to predict the enemy's movements in detail, and only allowed Lin Xue to act as a crisis warning radar. You don't understand? Alright, it's a strengthened woman's sixth sense. Now it should be easy to understand, right?
As for us "Emissaries", the next target of our operation was — Gloom City.
I hated the Royal Apothecary Society, and I hated the Dreadlord who only had a total of three to four missions and was twice my height. I admit that I had subtly mixed up time and space. Therefore, I decided to help Cirvanas take back Gloom City.
