Chapter 262 But
What the Imperial Court has done is the most hateful. The likelihood of distress for diplomats is also much higher than in other domains. Nock must have been a diplomat for a long enough time to be able to achieve the post of foreign minister, and Nock was fine for such a long time, which was inseparable from his prudence.
Finding out that Walter was missing, Nock immediately had a sense of foreboding in his heart.
"Doom...... This. Nock asked the people around him where Walter was. The people around him choked when they heard Lord Nock's question. The whole person was stumbling, and he didn't know how to reply to Nock for a while.
Originally, Ward was not there, and Nock didn't feel anything about it, but the person next to him was so smuggling that Nock suddenly became suspicious in his heart.
"Where's Ward, say!"
When he asked Nok again, his tone was no longer flat, but very stern. There is also the last word "say", which is directly asked.
Nock's anger only shocked the person beside him, although there was a cold sweat all over the man's body. Nock is the Commander of Foreign Affairs. He is shrewd and cautious, but he is also decisive and ruthless. A mild-mannered person would never be able to hold the post of Commander of Foreign Affairs.
The man next to Nock had no doubt that if he didn't satisfy him at this time, Nock would kill him without hesitation.
At this time, he didn't dare to hide it for Huade.
"Yes...... Yes, Master Hua said he was going out for a walk...... Turn. The man beside Nock said in a trembling voice covered with cold sweat.
Turning around, it was all too clear what kind of nephew Nock was superb. Where is he going out and going around. He must not know where to go.
"Bastard!" Guessing where Walter would go, Nock couldn't help but be furious. The place where Ward might go is Nok, you don't have to think about it, it must be some kind of dance hall nightclub or something. And that kind of place is chaotic. The personnel are mixed. If the people of the Green Domain are hostile to the people of their Imperial Court, then that kind of place is the best place to do it.
The man next to Nock was silent at the moment. Hang your head. Standing aside, he didn't dare to say a word, for fear that if he said the wrong thing again, Nock would vent all the anger in his heart at the moment.
"Immediately gather the Sloran squadron and take me to Ward." Take a few breaths of relief. Nock finally calmed down a little of his anger, and no matter what, he had to get Walter back first. As for the other accountability or something. We'll have to wait until we get Ward back.
"Yes!" Hearing Nock's final order, the man beside Nock couldn't help but let out a long breath in his heart.
It would be good to have an order, and if there was an order, he could take the opportunity to leave. The strong in anger have a common problem, that is, the momentum on the body will leak out. And Nok himself is a powerhouse at the peak of the twenty-ninth level. How could he inadvertently leak out the momentum that a non-combatant civilian could bear?
Just a trace of the popularity that can already be suppressed can't breathe.
The fighters of the Imperial Court Domain were well-trained, and although they were all cultivators, they did not have the arrogance of the evolutionaries in some of the bases on this continent. This is the quality of a soldier trained with a long-standing domain-level strength.
The Sloran Squadron was one of several squadrons that Nok had brought with him from the Imperial Court, with a strength of fifty men. The lowest strength of the soldiers is level eight. The average quality has surpassed that of the most elite troops in the Green Domain, the Black Armored Cavalry Army.
Of course, there are such squadrons. And there are four of them in the Nok area. It doesn't mean that the strength of the Imperial Court Domain has reached such a strong point. Even every ordinary soldier in the domain can reach level eight.
The envoy tuan who goes out, this represents the face of a domain-level force for a domain, you don't need to send high-end forces, just like the envoy tuan of the imperial court, only send a top powerhouse the day after tomorrow. But the soldiers of the underground must not be shabby. The most ordinary low-level soldiers are often the places that can best demonstrate the strength and heritage of a base.
There is no innate powerhouse among your envoys, and people will not say that a domain-level force can't take out a domain-level powerhouse. And if a small ordinary soldier in your envoy Tuan is an eighth-level powerhouse, people will be amazed by the heritage of this domain.
In the Green Domain, can you ask the release soldiers to assemble a team of 200 people composed of all eighth-level evolutionaries? Of course. It's not a problem, let alone two hundred. Even if it is 500 people and 1,000 people, they can get together. But the problem is that these don't mean anything.
The actual situation of the Imperial Domain's army was also released through Hua De's memory. The average strength of each soldier has reached the level of five levels, and the strength is not high, but even so, it is better than the current Qingyu. Because of the fifth level, that is the average standard of others, and now in the Qingyu, in addition to the first army of the Black Armor Army, the other second to fourth armies of the Black Armor Army, and the other Qingyu Army have not reached the average level three. It's just an average level of two levels. And this is because after the end of the world, these soldiers in the Blue Domain have been eating the flesh and blood of the twenty mutant beasts, which has led to the passive evolution of the body.
With a squadron of Slorland. Nock himself, plus some cultivators and powerhouses around Nok, hurriedly felt the famous large-scale entertainment venue in the base on the west bank of the Qingyu where Hua De was.
It's late at night, but like this kind of entertainment venue, this time is exactly the busiest time.
The people in the ballroom are still full of energy. And some of the owners in the private room have already begun to score two goals.
I asked the manager of the ballroom. Nock and his party of more than a dozen people entered the private room of Walter pointed out to them by the ballroom manager. And did not come in with fifty soldiers of the Sloran squadron. After all, this is still the territory of Qingyu, with so many fighters, fully armed to rush into the entertainment venue. It is easy to mistake the situation for a provocation. There is also deliberate trouble. And the Imperial Court has always liked to occupy the commanding heights of morality. Down-to-earth things Nock rarely does. So he just brought a dozen people in to find Walder.
The closer he got to Ward's private room, the more uneasy Nock's heart became, and he didn't know why Nock always felt that something was going to happen tonight.
Private rooms are nearby. Nock gave the people around him a look of consciousness. The subordinates beside him immediately understood, and the muscles of his whole body immediately tensed, and the whole person also entered a combat state.
Slowly opened. What greeted the nose was the temperature of strong alcohol, and there was a special smell after erosion. There are more than 30 people in the large private room. More than a dozen of them were Walter and his bodyguards. The other twenty or so were call girls in the dance hall, and Walter and his men were each holding two of them left and right at this time. Everyone has something to do, and the scene can be described as extremely erosive.
"En'e ~~~~~~!" When Nock came in, Walder, the same naked girl, kissed passionately, and Ling Yilang lay his head between Walder's legs, doing oral work for Walder. The skillful oral work frequently makes the Huade in the hot kiss can't help but break free from the girl's lips and make a sound.
"Humph!" Seeing that Ward was fine, Nock's heart suddenly relaxed. But then a huge anger instantly came over his heart. A cold snort full of effort. Suddenly woke up Walder, who was in bliss, and Walter opened his blank eyes and looked for a few seconds before he recognized that it was his uncle standing in front of him.
"Ahh Uncle! ”
My uncle didn't know when he came. Walde's whole body immediately withdrew from the ecstatic feeling. Suddenly pushed away the girl next to him, got up and came to Nock, lowered his head, and didn't dare to gasp.
Originally, there was a monstrous anger in Nock's heart. But looking at this moment, Huade didn't even have a piece of clothing on his body. And this is really not the place to teach Walter a lesson. So I forcibly endured the anger in my heart. Nock whispered, "Put on your clothes and go back." ”
Walter lowered his head, not daring to breathe, whatever Nock said at the moment, he would do whatever he wanted, looking extremely deferential. Huade didn't dare to breathe, and the bodyguards around Huade naturally didn't dare to breathe. Because they were sent to Walter's side to protect Walder, the order was given by Nok. And they didn't protect it well. When Walter sneaked out to have fun, they not only didn't stop it, but they also concealed it. After arriving here, he was even more wanton with Huade. If this matter is really investigated, they will not escape the blame.
The Slorland squadron came and went as fast as it came. Soon, Nock took Walter and his party back to their Imperial Envoy Tuan's residence. And the news that their group had returned to the hotel was also transmitted back to Shi Bing by Qingyu's secret eyeliner at the same time.
At this time, the release of soldiers had already returned to the military headquarters. Accompanied by beautiful women and wine. I heard that someone had come to report that Nock was sure to bring someone to find Ward back after he found out that Walter was missing.
Shi Bing's eyes flashed, and he secretly said that this Nok was really cautious and a difficult opponent. But such a person came to the Qingyu this time and met someone like Shi Bing, which was also his bad luck.
Shi Bing is not the kind of innate strong man that Nock encountered in the past, and Shi Bing himself does not have any fixed and unchanging principles. As long as the goal can not be achieved, the release of troops can be unscrupulous. The release of soldiers will be shameless and scoundrels. You watched him do something and he dared not admit it. And obviously he didn't do it, but he dared to take it.
Either way, Walter was taken back by Nock. Shi Bing knew that although Nock would definitely scold Hua De once, his own nail could be regarded as successfully inserted into the envoy of the Imperial Court, and through Hua De in the future, Shi Bing could also insert more nails into the Imperial Court.
In the future, if there is any latest news in the envoy of the Imperial Court, the soldiers will be able to know it through Hua De for the first time. In this way, in the face of the menacing appearance of the Imperial Court, the Qing Domain can be regarded as the first to occupy the peak.
……
Tuan, the envoy of the Imperial Court, came to the Qing Domain to negotiate territory with the Qing Domain. Since the distance between the Qing Domain and the Imperial Court Domain is really far away, just the distance has consumed a lot of time from the Imperial Court Domain's envoys, and it is not possible to negotiate in a day or two once they are negotiated. And even if it is a negotiation, it may not be possible to negotiate. Negotiated to return to the Imperial Court Domain to inform the innate powerhouses waiting in the domain. And it takes time to choose several successors among them, and everything takes time. So in order to complete this diplomatic action as much as possible. The Imperial Court envoy Tuan is the principal of Nock. Victor applied to the Qingyu official the day after he arrived in Qingyu. Ask to meet with the Qingyu Domain Master.
The Imperial Court is in a hurry. But the release of soldiers was not in a hurry. Shi Bing knew through Huade that Nock and his party were really anxious. Because the opportunity for the emergence of a new continent like this is very rare, and once a new continent appears, there are many human territories without innate powerhouses. This is the busiest time in the Imperial Court. Because they need to send multiple waves of envoys to negotiate.
Except for the green domain. Far away in this continent are several parts of the Asian region. The Imperial Court was also sent by Tuan. Of course, for those bases that are not guarded by innate powerhouses, their Imperial Court Domain is not so easy to speak.
The qualifications for dialogue on an equal footing are based on the fact that the forces of the two sides are roughly equal.
Nock's request to meet the Lord of the Green Domain was accepted by the people from the Green Domain with a smile. Said to call Nock and others to wait for the letter. But this wait is headless. I waited for several days, but there was still no news that the Qingyu domain lord had promised to meet with the envoy Tuan.
Qingyu was not in a hurry, but in the end, Nock couldn't sit still. knew that this was the Qingyu Domain Lord hiding from himself and others. This situation was also encountered in the past when the Imperial Court envoy Tuan went out. Compared to the kind of domain-level forces that directly confronted their Imperial Court Domain envoys. This kind of domain-level power that the domain master hides from is difficult to deal with.
Because this kind of strength is extremely rare, the domain master, as an innate powerhouse. And the innate strong man actually hid from an acquired strong man and didn't dare to meet, this kind of thing is said. Shame on you! Ordinary innate powerhouses don't have this face.
And once the innate strong person doesn't care about those face problems, he still hides from you. This is the time when Nock has the most headache. Because even if you want to be convicted and deducted, you still need to see people.
You button your hat when you don't see anyone, and once you are in a hurry to button your hat. In the end, they took possession. What do you say? A person who is inherently strong and a domain master must be trivial. If you want to meet people, it's understandable that they can't find time for a while.
The first means of releasing the soldiers is to drag and support, so that the Qing Domain can grasp the initiative, once the Imperial Court Domain stands up and shouts first, then they will have moral flaws. And their domain likes to occupy the moral high ground.
Nock offers to meet with the Green Domain Lord. The official of Qingyu also gave a reply, saying that the owner of Qingyu will meet with them in the near future. But this is not the time to come. Until ten days later. When Nok already thought that the domain master of the Green Domain would not receive him, he was ready to return to the Imperial Court Domain to start the second set of policies against the Green Domain. Qingyu officials finally gave him a positive reply.
Due to the busy affairs of the Green Domain, all the receptions with the Imperial Domain Envoy Tuan were delayed for a while, and five days later, the Green Domain Lord would personally approach the Imperial Domain's Foreign Affairs Commander, Noke.
There is a huge difference between the status of a domain lord and a great commander. It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary Grand Commander to be received by a domain master, except for the domain master himself, of course. In addition to the strong people at the domain master level, they want to see the strong people at the domain master level, and they need to see the mood of the people if they can't see it.
But there are exceptions to everything, there is an identity that asks to see the domain master, but the domain master can not easily refuse and avoid it. That is the person in charge of the envoy from the outer realms. For example, the principal of the Imperial Domain's envoy tuan, the Imperial Domain's Foreign Affairs Commander Noke.
A domain that makes the principal of the tuan visit to the outer lands represents not only himself, but also their domain. A domain owner can ignore a person who is not the domain owner, but cannot despise a domain.
Therefore, the release of soldiers for the imperial court domain is not yet visible. But since it must be seen, the personality of the release soldier will definitely not make the other party feel comfortable to see.
The first is to tell you to wait, to wait in a blank situation without any promise, and when you wait until you are desperate and determined, it will give you another date for an appointment, but at the cost of you still having to wait.
Wait, wait! Just waiting for the reception of the Lord of the Green Domain, it took half a month for the envoy of the Imperial Court Domain, and this half a month Nok almost exhausted all the patience he had accumulated in the past, and the envoys between the domains were extremely solemn. Even if there is something important in a domain, high-level people can't come out, and they must send someone who can represent the domain. Where have you ever encountered something like Qingyu, it was directly cold-treated.
Because of the half-month wait, Nock has not seen the soldiers again. It's just that he has already felt the difficulty of this Qingyu domain master. But then again, there are really very few domain masters who are not difficult. But those are the old guys who have been domain masters for I don't know how many years. However, according to the intelligence, the age of the release of soldiers should not be very old. It's so difficult when you're young, and you can pay it back when you're old.
At this time, Nock had already drawn a heavy stroke on the Qingyu and the release of the soldiers. That is, this time in any case, it is necessary to forcibly divide the existing territory of the Qing Domain, otherwise, the Qing Domain will take advantage of the current vast territory, once the establishment of the Qing Domain is extended, and when they gain a firm foothold, it will even threaten the moral dominance of their Imperial Court.
In the Calamity Continent, there is no force strong enough to be fearless of any form of foreign siege. The main framework that restricts the development of the various domains on the Calamity Continent is the territory and the population.
If there is not enough territory, there will be no more population, and without population, there will be no vast base population for selecting cultivators, and without a large number of cultivators for selecting basic population, there will be no hope for a domain.
In this way, whether the last domain can be developed or not depends on the size of the territory of a domain.
A domain owner who is not easy to deal with. If he is called to have a strong domain-level strength again, it will inevitably upset the existing balance on the Calamity Continent. And upsetting the equilibrium has always faced resistance from many sides.
……
A month after the Imperial Court envoy Tuan came to the Qingyu Gang, the time for the Qingyu side to arrange for Nok to meet with the Qingyu Domain's main release soldier had finally arrived. And Qingyu did not break its promise. Shi Bing really planned to meet with them.
The release is not an expert negotiator, but neither is the other side. Through the memories of Nock's nephew Walder, Shi Bing has learned some of the methods used by the Imperial Court to force other domain-level powers to cede land in the past. To put it bluntly, in addition to military deterrence, it is moral coercion. There is also intimidation that provokes public outrage.
Therefore, Shi Bing did not invite some negotiators in the region to give him advice, but invited some people who should be present for this meeting.
……
The meeting place was at the newly established Qingyu Martial Arts Academy on the island of Berlin. Several buildings in the Qingyu Martial Academy are more suitable for this kind of solemn meeting. Since the establishment of Qingyu, all the construction plans of Qingyu have been extremely purposeful. As a result, the location suitable for receiving the Outland envoy Tuan was not established in the West Bank at all. On the contrary, there is such a building in the Qingyu Martial Academy.
……
"Hmph. It's too much. Uncle, even if he is the domain master, but we are the envoys of the imperial court, and we only met after this delay. This is clearly contempt for our Imperial Court. ”
Walter is Nock's nephew, and although he doesn't have any skills, in order to train him, Nock still decides to take him with him on this occasion. Of course, there is a purpose for this arrangement, and that is to meet on the island of Berlin. Judging from the map of Qingyu, the distance between the West Bank base and Berlin Island is not short. If you add the negotiations, it is impossible to return in a single day.
Leaving your own nephew alone at the West Bank base while negotiating? This kind of thing can't reassure Nock when you think about it. So in any case, he had to bring his nephew with him.
And Hua De has no other skills, but the ability to chew his tongue is not small. The Qingyu side called them the Imperial Court Domain, and Tuan Nian waited for half a month to finally meet, and he already had an opinion in his heart about this matter, which would take advantage of the fact that the Qingyu Domain Lord had not yet arrived. Walter was the first to speak and complained in a low voice.
"Don't talk too much." Nock's eyes are slightly closed. The majestic low voice scolded Walder. I waited for half a month. Do you still complain about something at this last moment and then tell the truth?
"Yes." Ward's awe of his uncle went deep into his heart. There was nothing he didn't dare not listen to about Nock's words. In person, of course. Behind his back, he can't promise not to commit it.
……
......The meeting place is not large, but it is empty, so the echo is very obvious when someone approaches. (To be continued......)
