Sure enough, when the welcome banquet was halfway through, the elven general with the title of commander and an almost neutral appearance came to Luo Zhengdao with a crystal wine glass, and he said politely:

"On behalf of His Excellency the Grand Commander, I cordially invite Count Fowl to visit our country. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!)"

Hearing the sound, a glimmer of light flashed in the eyes of Luo Zhengdao, who was weak, and he knew that the play meat had arrived, so he immediately cheered up and said:

"Oh, I'm really sorry, I've had some health problems lately, and I can't visit your country for the time being."

Luo Zhengdao's words are both the truth and prevarication, because of this, the other party is not good at saying anything, and now Luo Zhengdao's face is so bad that anyone who is not blind can see it, there is really nothing to blame. As a result, a bright smile appeared on the face of the elven general, who was so handsome that it was difficult to distinguish between male and female, and then he raised his glass to greet Luo Zhengdao and said:

"Hehehehehe, the door of our country is always willing to be open to friends. Your Excellency, you may come as soon as you see fit, and we are always waiting for you. Cheers to your health and the friendship between humans and elves! ā€

"Well, I'll definitely take the time to visit His Excellency the Grand Commander, cheers!"

As the saying goes, there are fewer than a thousand cups of wine for a confidant, and there is no speculation in more than half a sentence. The elves had already made their intentions clear, and it would be meaningless to continue to keep Luo Zhengdao and his party for a while, and soon they would leave the elf flagship.

On the way back by dinghy, Vina Dubov was silent for a while, and finally couldn't bear to take the initiative to ask Luo Zhengdao:

"Will, why did you refuse the invitation of the Elven Federation? Isn't this mention yƬ bad? ā€

Luo Zhengdao, who had always closed his eyes and said nothing from the moment he got on the dinghy, didn't even mean to open his eyes, and said in a low voice:

"No, you should ask me why I agreed."

Hearing this, Vina Dubov's eyes were full of question marks, and she tried to recall the details of the conversation between the two sides, and then said tentatively:

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Is there any difference? ā€

Luo Zhengdao, who had a smile on the corner of his mouth, opened his eyes and said slowly:

"Of course, I won't participate in a negotiation with an unequal status, let alone sign a cheap deed of sale."

The fact is indeed as Luo Zhengdao said, he now has the capital to refuse to trade with elves, under the pursuit of the Second Goblin Empire, very few human nobles of the Bright Dynasty have survived, and Luo Zhengdao, who has a title of earl on his head, is also a strange commodity.

These long-eared people who like to see different ideas are nothing more than planning to bet in advance and exchange a little aid in the early stage for future benefit delivery conditions, to put it bluntly, the plan of the Elven Federation is the same as those profiteers in the old world who play risky capital. Since Luo Zhengdao has the confidence of a traverser and the hole cards of the magic card master, how can he agree to sell his future cheaply? Rather than being depressed by the other party because of their own weak power, it is better to block the other party's offer as soon as possible, so that the party that holds the initiative in the negotiation will be replaced by Luo Zhengdao.

It is inconceivable that a governess of a future aristocrat would not know anything about politics herself, and even if she only knew the depth of military affairs on paper, Vina Dubov was by no means a layman who knew nothing about politics.

Understanding what Luo Zhengdao meant by what he said, the half-elf beauty still showed skepticism, and she whispered:

"Will, are you sure you'll soon have the strength to negotiate with the Elven Federation on an equal footing? The Elven Federation is a big country, not a city-state! ā€

The Yaling Empire and the Elven Federation, which are isolated in the Seven Great Circles and form a situation of mutual confrontation, will not be much larger than the main six times larger, but the problem is that the geographical location they occupy is too remote, not only far away from the important trade routes with other civilized countries, but also once regarded as a barbarian country, how to promote their own economic development has become a thorny problem. This is like the old world, the industrial cities that the former Soviet Union painstakingly built on the Siberian wilderness, after losing foreign blood transfusions, their too remote geographical location and high cost of living quickly caused them to lose all their inhabitants, and in the blink of an eye, they became one desolate ghost town after another.

In the new world of the Hundred Races, the Yaling and the Elves are mesozoic species, although unlike the immortal species represented by pure-blooded dragons, the cycle of reproduction of offspring often takes thousands of years to give birth to new offspring. However, compared to the short-lived species of humans and goblins who can reproduce a generation in more than ten years, everyone is obviously not on the same order of magnitude, and the time it takes for a Yaling or elf baby to grow into an adult is enough for a short-lived breed to give birth to several generations. It is conceivable that with such a tragic population value-added, it will be difficult for Yaling and elves to make use of it even if they occupy more land.

Affected by the characteristics of the race, the cycle of prosperity and decline of the Yaling Empire and the Elven Federation is particularly long compared with the short-lived regime, unless it is to fight a world war of unprecedented scale, or to explode some black technology, it is unlikely that he will see significant changes in the national strength of these two families in Luo Zhengdao's lifetime.

Luo Zhengdao, who showed that he was unwilling to sign an alliance with others, could not hide his tiredness, and immediately grinned at Vina Dubov, and said in a weak breath:

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Anyway, it's going to be better than it is now! ā€

Hearing this, Vena was speechless, and could only nod her head in agreement with Luo Zhengdao's point of view, and the half-elf beauty said a little discouraged later:

"And what are you going to do?"

After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Luo Zhengdao's face full of fatigue and pain flushed with an unhealthy flush, and he said as if looking forward to the future:

"I need more reliable manpower, especially the ones who can help me master the fleet, Vina, we have to go to the main 6 direction to find it next."

Hearing this, Vina Dubov's bumpy and delicate body trembled involuntarily, and then she waved her arms excitedly and said:

"No, it's too dangerous, are you crazy?"

At this time, Luo Zhengdao, who was smiling before speaking, covered his chest with his hands to avoid the sequelae of the faint pain affecting his normal speech, and followed him word by word:

"It's not a big deal, no matter where I'm hiding, I can't escape the fate of being chased by goblins, every day of my life is dangerous, don't you understand?"

Hearing this, the half-elf beauty who was speechless looked at Luo Zhengdao with her eyes, her eyes showed pity, and said:

"But, Will...... You're pushing yourself too hard. ā€

With a sigh, Luo Zhengdao shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said:

"Maybe! In the end, it was me who made this decision, and instead of consuming it like this, I might as well take the risk. ā€

There is a classic joke in the Old World, about a peace-loving arms dealer, a chaste prostitute, a liar who never lies, and a politician who combines all three.

In the political business, it has always been a gathering of the most filthy and dark and evil elements in the world, in order to compete for power and personal gain, blood relatives will kill each other, close friends will turn against each other, everyone on the table while smiling and shaking hands, while stabbing each other with the other hand under the table, this kind of thing is normal for people engaged in politics. In order to compete for power and profit, you can ruthlessly trample on the moral and legal norms of the world, this is the essence of politics, there is no good and evil, there is no right and wrong, only ruthless calculations and naked interests stained with the blood of innocent people.

If a person believes that there is fairness and justice in the real world in which he lives, he is called innocent before the age of thirty, and he can only be called an idiot after the age of thirty.

There is a wise saying in ancient times: Rather be a chicken than a cow. Luo Zhengdao could naturally see that the enthusiasm and friendship that the elves and Yaling had towards him was completely based on their own use value, and in addition, he couldn't find any other reason to whitewash each other's motives. Luo Zhengdao is unwilling to be a puppet for no reason to drive and shout, serve a foreign race, and after a hard work, he is unloaded and killed by the negative teaching materials of the donkey, this kind of thing in the history of the old world will pull a pile of old papers, that is really a lot of cow hair!

Whether it is out of rational judgment and analysis, or considering the problem from personal emotional factors, Luo Zhengdao does not think that taking the initiative to run to the other race as a guise and puppet is a strategy of choice.

Since you are not willing to be taken advantage of, you must be prepared to find a way out where there is no road, what is the difference between the traverser and the indigenous people? The biggest difference is not in the quality of personal qualifications, before the crossing, Luo Zhengdao was just an ordinary person who couldn't be found if he fell into the crowd, after the crossing, he had a new identity that can be called a double-edged sword, and in his bones Luo Zhengdao still had the mind of a grass people. What can the little grass people pursue? Thirty acres of land with a cow, and the wife and children are hot on the kang. Of course, this sentence is a little outdated, and it is changed to marry a young girl with a car and a house, which is roughly in line with the ideal living situation in reality, and the pursuit of ordinary people is nothing more than such a thing. So where is the fundamental difference?

Mission! It is an indisputable fact that everything has its own internal rationality, and the traverser must also have a certain mission.

Luo Zhengdao has read countless traversal texts in the past, and there has never been a traverser who has lived this life honestly, these predecessors are either active or passively involved in the tide of the times, heroic and hegemonic, low-key family rich, more unlucky, then can only incarnate as a new generation of Tiansha Lone Star wandering the world. No matter how bad the luck is, it's not for nothing that the master who goes directly to the street to get a boxed lunch, in short, this thing is a test of character. In a word, the ordinary is the enemy of life and death of the traverser, and those who lack consciousness will definitely die a very ugly death, since you are a traverser, then you must have the consciousness of being entangled in all kinds of troubles for a lifetime.

If you don't want to believe it, remember to pay attention to the ccaV1o "Into Science" column, which is known as a natural burial mechanism, before crossing over, and see what will happen to those unlucky ghosts who cry and shout that they are possessed by xx stars and various gods and demons!
