101 Negotiations
Inside the city of Seris, the castle of Grand Duke Elanhill is about to become a mortal temple. A burly middle-aged man stood at the gate with his hands behind his back, smiling at the Guards soldiers in front of him.
He was dressed in an ornate robe, and every stitch and thread seemed to be luxurious. This man can give others a strong sense of oppression when he stands there like this, as if he was born superior to others, and he is a person who needs to be worshiped and looked up to by countless people.
"The air here is really terrible." With a smile on his face, the man spoke to the Iran Hill Guards soldier who was serious and guarded carefully, "But the weather is not bad, I don't like the rain very much. β
Seeing that the other party did not intend to pay attention to him, the man then introduced himself, "My name is Joseph Bakalov, and I wish to see the Grand Duke of Eranhill. β
"Recently, the Grand Duke has been very busy and has no time to meet guests!" Pressing the pistol on his waist, the Guards soldier stared at the man who made him feel dangerous, and explained, "Please don't come near here, or I'll shoot!" β
"Gun...... What a good name...... Are the weapons in your cities also called guns? Joseph Bakalov took two steps back to show that he had no ill intentions, and continued to ask with a smile.
"That's an anti-aircraft gun! Mr! Are you visiting Iran Hill for the first time? "Because there have been many people who have come to Ellan Hill lately, the guard can only explain a few more sentences to the other party.
If it had been in the past, he wouldn't have wasted saliva on such a stranger. However, as more and more people rushed to Iran Hill, Chris also asked the guards to be more polite to the civilians who came to take refuge.
"Yes, I'm here for the first time." Joseph Bakalov nodded, and remembered with great interest two words that he dared to be interested in: "gun, cannon...... It's so interesting! It's so much fun! β
Feeling that the time was almost up, Joseph Bakalov had no intention of entangling with the doorman any longer. He put his hands behind his back and smiled, and said to the Guards soldiers in front of him, "Go and tell Archduke Iran Hill Chris...... Joseph Bakalov, the consul of the Eastern Province of the Holy Demon Empire, asks to see him. β
Hearing the words of the Holy Demon Empire, the surrounding soldiers all turned their attention to this side, and they subconsciously pressed the pistol on their waists, but found that there was only one person on the other side, and they did not make any dangerous moves.
"I'm just here to talk to him, I don't mean anything else, don't be so nervous." Bakalov explained, and just stood there, waiting for the guards to report the news.
Bakalov's purpose for coming here this time was pure, he was not prepared to use force, he just wanted to meet the Grand Duke of Elanhill and see for himself the weapons that mortals used to slay dragons.
In addition, he also wanted to talk to Frentzberg about the changes in the Mortal Empire and the impact on the Holy Demon Empire. In short, he didn't come to fight, he came more like he came to make peace than to fight. It's just that this meeting is his personal advocacy, and it also carries his strong personal color.
Upstairs, Chris is drawing a blueprint about a truck. After all, the truck is more powerful than a jeep for transportation, and with a truck, his troops can move steadily towards mechanization.
Just as he was stretching to rest for a few minutes, there was a knock on the door. A waiter, renamed Secretary, walked in and reported a shocking news to Chris: "Your Majesty! A man claiming to be the Archon of the Eastern Province of the Holy Demon Empire is outside the castle and wants to see you......"
Chris was stunned for two seconds, then thought carefully for a few seconds before grabbing the phone on the table and commanding, "Hey! Chambers? Contact Frenzberg and Desel and get the two of them to Conference Room 1. β
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the waiter at the door again, and then ordered, "Let the escort troops on duty assemble and stand by in Room 1!" β
Although Chris has won several battles in a row, he still maintains a jealous heart for the mysterious Holy Demon Empire. He didn't dare to be careless, because he didn't want to die under the sneak attack of others.
This time to meet, if he didn't call Frentzberg, it was obviously inappropriate, after all, the Holy Demon Empire came, and Frentzberg's presence definitely had a role.
But Chris didn't dare to take risks, although Frentsberg seemed to be a very reliable fighting force, but when facing the people of the Holy Demon Empire, Chris was still worried that Frentsberg would suddenly turn back.
One great mage is easy to deal with, but if there are two, it is more dangerous. So Chris assembled his own guards, at least these soldiers can play a role as a guard in the moment of crisis.
Discreetly, he called in twice as many guards, who took up most of the room. The guards were waiting here with wide eyes, guarding Chris in the middle, as well as Frenzberg and Desser.
Joseph Bakalov was brought into this conference room by the waiter, and then he was taken aback by the crowd in front of him: "So many people? β
In the eyes of Joseph Bakalov, his coming to negotiate with the Grand Duke of Irlanhill was already a very sincere gesture. Since it is a negotiation, it should be conducted in a convenient and confidential place. But now, in front of him were at least thirty guards with pistols drawn......
In fact, he ignored that for a mortal, the magician itself is the most dangerous weapon, and it cannot be overstated. Because in Chris's imagination, there are infinite possibilities for magicians.
γ‘ζ°γ€~(8)~1~Chinese ηΆ²ΟΟΟ.Ο~8.~1zΡ.cΓ²ΠΌ
For example, the wizard Doctor Strange in the Marvel Universe can easily break the space. For example, the magicians inside can even summon meteorites to destroy a city......
"These are my most loyal followers, so I don't mind if they hear what we're negotiating." Chris replied with a smile.
Nodding, Joseph Bakarov, who came alone, decided to follow the locals and respect Chris's decision...... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be amazed for a moment, how many years had he been, he hadn't had an attitude of respect to an ant-like mortal?
"Mr. Frenzberg!" Nodding at Frentzberg and greeting him, the Archon Joseph Bakalov, who had never taken mortals into account, went straight to the topic of conversation, "Your weapons are very interesting, and I, or the Holy Demon Empire, are very interested in it. We want these weapons, let's make a condition. β
"Are you interested in our weapons? To take it against the Eternal Empire? Chris asked, leaning back in his chair and holding his chin high.
When Archon Joseph Bakarov heard this question, he did not answer immediately, but turned his gaze to the Grand Magician of Vrenzberg: "You revealed all this to mortals?" β
"This is the country to which I will be loyal for the rest of my life, why can't I say it?" Frenzberg said with a smile. He used to be the Great Mage of the Holy Demon Empire, and his status was no lower than that of an archon, so he didn't care about the anger in the other party's eyes.
"Alright! Actually, it doesn't matter. Shrugging his shoulders, Bakarov said indifferently, "Now that you already know about the Eternal Empire, it is even more important to explain all this. β
Speaking of which, he looked at Chris and continued, "The Eternal Empire is a magical empire that is more powerful than the Holy Demon Empire, and the Holy Demon Empire is not the greedy and corrupt sin country in the eyes of mortals, but a great kingdom that helps mortals to ward off all calamities. β
"Wow! Pulling the flag is much better than me! The title of 'Dragon Slayer Warrior' on my side hasn't been played yet, and you shameless people are calling yourself 'human guardians'? Chris sneered in his head.
However, he didn't show it, just waved his hand and said, "Since you didn't send more dragon knights to grab these weapons, it means that you don't want the existing weapons in our hands, but hope that we will help the Holy Demon Empire develop a brand new weapon." β
"Tell me, what kind of weapons do you want?" Chris looked at Bakalov and asked word by word, "Let me guess, it shouldn't be one, right?" β
"You guessed it! As long as you give us everything we want, cooperate with us, and hand over everything you know, I can live without blame for the past and let Iran Hill continue to exist. "In addition, the area of the Arrant Empire north of the Abyss River can be given to Ellan Hill." β
"Hahahaha!" When Chris heard this condition, he suddenly burst out laughing, as if he had heard some super funny joke, "I want it, I'll take it myself!" Throw the meat on my plate at me as a bargaining chip, and you want the weapons and equipment in my hand? Mr. Archon Bakalov, you ...... I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet, right? β
Surprisingly, Bakalov didn't jump as fast as Chris thought, he smiled slightly, and kicked the ball back in front of Chris, "If you feel that the conditions are not enough, you can put forward the conditions yourself, you don't need to be angry." β
Chris choked up and didn't speak for a while. After he replied, he said, "I want the Kingdom of Higgs!" Arant! And the eastern provinces under your jurisdiction! β
"Quite a reasonable request...... Bucklov nodded, then refused, "It's a pity that this is beyond what I can give you...... So I can't grant you such a request. β
"You can bargain, don't be in a hurry to refuse!" Chris is now learning and selling, and returned Bakalov's words to Bakalov.
The fifth more is offered, and today's outbreak ends.
