Chapter 204: Their Respective Thoughts
It has been two days since Su Qiran came to Xiao Mu Divine Palace, and after proposing a plan for peace yesterday, the deputy palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace asked Su Qiran to wait patiently for news on the grounds that he wanted to discuss with the high-level officials in the palace.
After that, it seemed that he deliberately snubbed Su Qiran, except for sending someone to bring some food over every day, Xiao Mu Divine Palace didn't care about Su Qiran anymore.
Su Qiran is also happy to be idle, after all, this time has been too abundant, and it is rare to have time to relax for a while.
It's a pity that the calm is always short-lived, and the next evening, the solemn appearance and the Xiao Mu Jingu Palace, dressed in gorgeous clothes, came in person.
In the small room where Su Qiran settled, there was a secret talk that would affect the future of the two strengths of Xincheng and Xiaomu Divine Palace.
"City Lord Su, I won't say much about polite words, let's go straight to the topic. The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace said very succinctly.
“...... Good. Su Qiran nodded, he didn't like that way of talking with a knife hidden in a smile.
"Your proposal is good, and it does benefit both of us, but I have a question. The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace stretched out his index finger and knocked on the tabletop, and the pressure like Mount Tai pressing the top suddenly erupted from him, crushing towards Su Qiran. "Why should we give you the opportunity to develop?"
Accompanied by heavy words, what was even heavier was the aggressive coercion of the palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace.
However, just as he said, the palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace can clearly see what kind of new order will be established in this land with complete magic technology, and the fall of Fire City is a wake-up call, and the development speed of the new city must not be measured by ordinary concepts.
Su Qiran said lightly as if he didn't feel this suffocating coercion at all, "So the conditions I gave included some new types of magic devices, and I believe that with these magic devices, the development speed of the Divine Palace will not be slow." ”
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Su Qiran waited for the palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace to make a decision, but at this time, the palace master, who had always been resolute, was also a little hesitant.
He knows exactly what Su Qiran is doing, Xincheng, as a force spawned by a new type of magic technology, what is most lacking at this stage is time, as long as he is given time to let it develop, it will swell into a behemoth in a few years.
But as Su Qiran said, at this stage, the strength of the new city is not weak, even if they can win the Xiao Mu Divine Palace, they will have to pay a lot of price, and the most important point, the palace master of the Xiao Mu Divine Palace is not sure whether he can get the new magic technology of the new city after forcibly destroying the new city.
That was a technology that was even more advanced than the Northern Star Bamboo Empire, as long as they mastered three-quarters, with the foundation of their Xiao Mu Divine Palace, they could develop enough to rule the entire Chaos Land within ten years.
And the forcible war and plunder, it is very likely that the bamboo basket will be empty, and Xincheng only needs to destroy all the recorded materials, and then destroy all his magic guide technicians, and they will not get that new type of magic guide technology at all.
This is also what Su Qiran said, it is better to be a broken jade than a complete tile.
And Su Qiran is also very smart, and the conditions proposed include sharing part of the new magic technology with Xiao Mu Divine Palace, although he knows that what Xincheng is willing to hand over is definitely not the core technology...... But this temptation was still enough to make Xiao Mu Jingu Palace take the initiative.
How should they choose? Do they choose to believe that Xincheng will still not be their opponent in five years? Or do they choose to cut through the chaos and destroy Xincheng now?
It's a tough choice.
"I accept the peace agreement, but the conditions need to be changed. The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace was silent for a long time before slowly spit out this sentence.
"Huh?"
"We don't want to leave the territory of Fire City, but during the period of peace, we Divine Palace will send people to the new city to study, and you must not have reservations, and the peace time will be changed to three years. ”
"......" Su Qiran's expression gradually became gloomy.
"That's the minimum I require. "Xiao Mu Divine Palace's face is as hard as iron.
“...... I promise I won't hold back, but I can't guarantee how much your people will learn. ”
"So you've agreed to the new conditions?" said the Xiao Mu Divine Palace Palace Master raised a smile.
"I don't have a choice. Su Qiran smiled bitterly for a while, and then immediately cleaned up his somewhat depressed mood.
"The peace agreement was signed in the form of a contract?" asked the palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace.
"Yes, but with an oath. Su Qiran took out a dark yellow stone from the portable space device, the stone was sharp and angular, and he could clearly feel the powerful magic in it.
The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace was slightly stunned, but he was not too surprised, after all, a verbal promise or a contract or something obviously would not work, even if Xiao Mu Divine Palace turned his head and turned his face, Su Qiran had no way to take them.
Therefore, the palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace guessed that Su Qiran would definitely complete the contract through a magic array such as a blood oath or curse, otherwise Su Qiran would not have proposed such a plan.
But no matter how perfect the contract is, there is a way to break the curse.
The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace smiled and stretched out his hand, holding the stone with Su Qiran.
"Please ask the legendary dragon clan to witness that Xincheng and Xiaomu Shrine have concluded a three-year peace covenant at this moment!" Su Qiran said loudly, and the dark yellow stone fell with Su Qiran's words, blooming with brilliant brilliance
The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that it was actually this [Dragon Stone] that Su Qiran was going to prevent them from breaching the contract.
In the Land of Chaos, there are legends of dragons in many places, and among them is this legend about dragonstones.
Legend has it that the dragonstone was given to humans by the dragons, and each dragonstone represents the conclusion of a contract, and the dragons serve as witnesses through the dragonstones. But legends are only legends after all, and the years have proven that even if the party who made the contract breaks the contract, the dragons who are the witnesses never punish them...... Over time, the Dragonstone has been seen as an ornament with high magical power but no practical value.
The light gradually faded, and Su Qiran took the dragon stone back into his pocket with satisfaction, "Since the contract has been completed, I won't bother here." ”
"Good. "The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace is still a little confused, but he still left here with Su Qiran.
But as soon as I went out, I found that it was a little dark outside.
Black wings covered the sky, and the majestic dragon stretched across the sky, and many people in the Xiaomu Shrine looked at the legendary creature in the sky in amazement, causing a small scale of chaos. And the magic array covering the entire Xiao Mu Divine Palace was activated, and the colorful brilliance sheltered the entire Divine Palace.
The black dragon gently stirred its wings, and the wind stirred up fell very far outside the magic shield of the Xiao Mu Divine Palace, and at this time, Su Qiran, who was beside the palace master of the Xiao Mu Divine Palace, suddenly controlled the sword qi and rose into the sky, and calmly rode the breeze swung by the dragon.
At the last moment of leaving, Su Qiran turned around and gave the Palace Master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace a meaningful look.
The palace master of Xiao Mu Divine Palace lowered his head in some silence, intuitively he already regretted the decision he had just made.
