The elves in Catherine's party finally calmed down after fifteen minutes of digestion.
Su Han said, "Alright. Don't ask us why we aren't directly going to eliminate the black dragon York. Next, we will explain in detail how to eliminate the black dragon York. Chu Shi, you explain it!"
Chu Shi nodded and then used the elven language to explain the plan. He also used codenames to introduce the identities of Su Han and his five companions.
After the explanation, Catherine pondered for a moment.
"In the plan, you have already found two Archmages. But we still need to confirm this!"
"Certainly. This tablet allows you to communicate with those two Archmages. Do you know those two Archmages?"
Catherine shook her head and said, "Those two Archmages are important figures. How could a small city lord like me possibly know those two important figures?"
Su Han asked, "Then none of you have met the two Archmages? If that's the case, proving it will be a bit difficult."
Catherine looked at the senior mage beside her.
The senior mage beside her shook his head and said, "I haven't met Archmage Megcarol and Archmage Julisa either. Those two Archmages are important figures in the elven race."
"Then it seems we'll have to wait until we meet them to confirm," Su Han said.
The senior mage said, "Let's not talk about that for now. You say this thing can communicate with Archmage Megcarol and Archmage Julisa? Is it using communication magic or something similar? I've heard of those kinds of magic. You need a Great Mage to communicate, and it also requires the World Tree for connection. But communication magic must be within fifty kilometers of a World Tree. The nearest city, Jiachai, doesn't have a World Tree. Communication magic shouldn't be usable here!"
Suddenly, a ringing sound began to emanate from the tablet.
"Ring ring ring..."
"Huh? Why is this thing ringing?" said the senior mage holding the tablet.
Su Han took the tablet back and saw that it was a call from Tablet Number 6. Su Han had given Tablet Number 6 to Megcarol for safekeeping.
"Oh, so it's Archmage Megcarol calling. By the way, I'll let you all listen to our conversation with Archmage Megcarol now."
Su Han pressed the speakerphone button.
"It's connected. Can you hear me? This is Megcarol! Can you hear me?"
Chu Shi replied in the elven language, "We can hear you. Archmage Megcarol, we can hear you very clearly."
"Hmm, it really is connected. How is the situation now? Where is Number 0?"
Chu Shi replied in the elven language, "Number 0 is here. I am acting as the translator. You can talk to Number 0 now."
After Chu Shi finished translating,
Su Han said, "The situation is very good now. We have found Catherine. By the way, Catherine and her people said they don't know you and Julisa. Do you have any way to prove your identity? Otherwise, they won't believe us, and we'll waste a lot of time."
Megcarol said, "What? I need to prove myself? Do I need to prove myself? Where is Catherine? Let me talk to Catherine."
Su Han handed the tablet to Catherine.
After Catherine took the tablet,
Megcarol immediately asked, "I am Megcarol. Are you Catherine? The City Lord of Jiake City?"
Catherine said, "That's right, I am Catherine. Are you truly Archmage Megcarol?"
"Exactly. I am Megcarol. I heard you need me to prove I am Megcarol? I, Megcarol, do not need to prove myself. Now, I and Number 0 have devised a dragon-slaying plan. Do you want to join?"
While Catherine was still hesitating, the senior mage beside her said, "Lord Catherine, although I haven't met Archmage Megcarol, I've heard that Archmage Megcarol is an arrogant person. Megcarol disdains to prove certain things. Therefore, the Megcarol on the call is likely the true Archmage Megcarol."
Catherine nodded and said, "Hello, Archmage Megcarol. It is truly my honor to be able to speak with you."
Megcarol continued, "Oh, right. Where are you now? Catherine, I heard you set out from Jiake City. Where have you reached?"
Catherine said, "We have reached the Jiachai territory now."
Megcarol said, "Only there? That's still more than two thousand elven miles from the Elven Imperial City. That distance is truly too far. It seems you will need to take their aircraft to come over."
Catherine asked doubtfully, "Aircraft? What is that?"
"It's the mechanical creation that Number 0 and the others are riding. The one that flies in the sky."
Catherine looked at the aircraft parked in the distance and said, "That's it? The mechanical creation that flies in the sky. It's called an aircraft."
Megcarol continued, "Alright, I still have some doubts about Number 0 and the others. Number 0, do you know what the black dragon York has been doing? I want to test if you can truly track the black dragon York's movements."
Su Han, after hearing the translation, said, "Chu Shi, where is the black dragon now?"
Chu Shi took out his tablet and looked through the satellite records.
In a set of photos, the black dragon York was attacking an elven city.
"Hmm, the black dragon York is currently attacking an elven city. That city also has a World Tree."
Upon hearing this, Megcarol said, "That's right. The black dragon York is currently attacking one of our elven cities. That elven city has a World Tree. However, the barrier empowered by the World Tree can protect the city from being breached by the black dragon York. Since you can know what is happening a thousand miles away, I believe you can also track the black dragon York's whereabouts. My doubts are now gone. Let's proceed to the next step. Catherine, bring them to the Elven Imperial City!"
At this moment, Catherine had already dismounted from the carriage.
Su Han said, "You've heard what Megcarol said. Now we need to take you to the Elven Imperial City. However, our aircraft has limited capacity and can only carry two more people. City Lord Catherine, please decide who will accompany you to the Elven Imperial City."
Catherine's Knight Captain said, "I'll go. After all, I am the Knight Captain!"
The senior mage also argued, "I should accompany Lord Catherine to the Elven Imperial City. After all, the most crucial aspect of this dragon-slaying plan is magic. My role as a mage will be more significant in the Elven Imperial City!"
After a brief dispute between Catherine's Knight Captain and the senior mage, it was finally decided that the senior mage would accompany Catherine to the Elven Imperial City.
