In Ellio.

Everything was peaceful, everything was going on steadily, Lu En just had to wait quietly, and in this free time, the elder finally found Lu En and invited him to come to the high vampire's manor.

Lu En sits in the manor of the High Vampires, buried deep in the shadows and does not appear in the real world at all.

In fact, the entire race of high-level vampires prefer to stay in the shadow realm, not because they are forced to do so, they really don't want to go to the real world.

This is also one of the reasons why Lu En agrees that they are here, the high vampire race does not occupy space, and there are no material needs, except for the blood of the powerful flesh, the others are not very interested.

It belongs to a very Buddhist race.

Of course, no matter how Buddhist they are, they also have something they care about, that is, the Shadow Realm, as a race with the Shadow Realm as their main habitat, the High Vampires care about this very much.

"Ann Luo has been doing very well lately, but as the process of communication with all aspects of the empire expands, the speed of concept integration is also improving, and your boundary monument will not last long." The elder sat across from Lu En with a glass of wine as clear as water.

"I have to remind you that you need to settle this matter within a year, is there anything you can do other than the boundary monument?" The elder looked at Lu En, his posture was still elegant, and his tone was still relaxed.

But his eyes kept on Lu En, and he refused to leave at all.

"Elder, don't be in such a hurry." Lu Enshi shook the water glass.

Yes, water glass, Lu En actually doesn't like to drink.

But the elder was unexpectedly a drunkard, and now the wine in his cup was the flaming water that Lu En brought back from hell, and the elder liked it very much.

As a high-level vampire, drinking without drinking blood always makes Lu En feel a little strange, although the other party's claim to be blood will affect his judgment, because drinking too much will produce a strange feeling similar to "drunk" in humans, and he hates this feeling, so he uses alcohol instead of blood.

"A year is just a snap of a finger for us, and it's hard not to be anxious." The elder said.

High vampires are extremely long-lived races, it is normal for ordinary members to live for seven or eight hundred years, and there are not a few elders who live in thousands, and a year is really nothing to them.

The concept of time of the immortal species is too weird, for example, Kara ꓹ According to her performance all the time ꓹ Lu En thinks that she should be inseparable from herself even a little bit of time, ꓹ will feel very uncomfortable if she leaves, and she herself thinks so.

But this little bit ...... It actually lasted for more than three months, and she couldn't bear it.

That's it, Elaine often says that she can't hold her breath and is too clingy.

It's the same as the ancient dragon Ayuken, ꓹ He said that he would come "in the near future", but almost a year has passed, ꓹ has not come recently, and Elaine also thinks it's normal! It's the same as Dad said, come over tomorrow, although almost a year has passed, but in the eyes of the dragon, it's not dark yet.

Imagine that for a dragon with a lifespan of two or three thousand years, it can live for four or five thousand years and a few months, which is indeed a nap.

In the same way, the sense of urgency of high-level vampires comes from here.

A year, too short, too short.

The high-level vampires are already creepy, and if Angleo's shadow realm begins to solidify, then all their construction will be ruined, and they will have to find another force to take refuge in.

"We've had serious divisions within ourselves, but luckily I still have some prestige enough to silence these different voices in a short period of time, King of Monsters, we need your tangible evidence, not promises." The elder said.

His tone was not very polite, indicating that the situation was really urgent to a certain extent.

"Of course, I also understand your current situation, but this involves our core interests, and it is impossible for the Night Clan to make concessions on this, I hope you can understand, we urgently need you to take a stand and come up with tangible evidence to confirm that you can cut the concept again, this must be done, you must give me an answer within today." The elder's rhetoric was fierce, even a little aggressive.

But Lu En understood their state of mind, and he sat up straight, showing his understanding and support for the other party, and at the same time, he also said, "My solution to this matter may be extremely intense, the Night Clan...... I don't think you should be silent or surprised when you hear these things. Lu En said to the elder.

"It sounds like your approach might not be good news." The elder said with a smile.

He seems to have relaxed a lot, no matter what the method is, since the other party has a way, then this is the best result, since the high-level vampires have bet on the king of monsters, they have seen the potential of the other party, and they are not willing to abandon any ally at will and form an alliance with others, which will not only make them lose a lot of energy, but also affect the range of options for the next step.

If you change your strategy at will, the hidden losses can be very large.

Lu En didn't continue to hide it, he said his plan bluntly: "A week later, there will be a meeting in the imperial capital, and many big nobles will be gathered, the last time is a border earl like me, princes, more than two-thirds of the grand duke will attend the meeting, you shouldn't know this news, right?" ”

"You see, there have been too many things happening in the empire recently, since more than ten years ago, after the death of the ancient sea emperor dragon, the empire chose to start a war with the sea clan and took away the coastal area, the peace was broken."

"The kingdoms have tasted the dividends of war, and they are unwilling to continue to stagnate and develop, but force the empire to continue the war, and the empire has chosen to attack the Demon King City, that is, you, and use political and diplomatic means to force the kingdoms to exert great efforts, hoping to extinguish their desire for war."

"As a result, you can also see that the kingdoms have suffered heavy losses, and they have been beaten by my maid Kara and me, but they have also received enough compensation, and the entire Demon King City is their harvest."

"They didn't lose much, but they didn't make any gains, and the frenzy of war was dispelled, but as a result, I chose to join the empire, and it became a variable, and it was a great variable for the empire."

"In addition, the conflict between the academic sect and the church has intensified after the collapse of the Heavenly Realm, and it has even begun to fight in a big way, setting off battles in many places, and the Heavenly Apostles directly interfered in many matters of the academic sect."

"After that, the problem was even greater, the conflict between the academy and the church reached the extreme, and the Great Mentor was promoted to level 10, but before he even had time to appear in front of everyone, he was directly wiped out by the gods, and the turmoil caused made the empire even more anxious."

"Then, the Sea Clan quelled the civil strife and made a comeback, and two kings of Hell took action to blow up the Styx Water Plant."

"More things have happened in the past few decades than in the past hundred years, the empire has begun to deal with them one by one, the long-term tranquility can make them lose their alertness for a short time, but so many things are enough to wake up this behemoth." Lu En said slowly, spreading out the major events that had happened recently.

"So...... That's the meeting you're talking about? Sorry, we don't have that much eyeliner among the Imperial nobility, and I'm not sure what you're talking about in a meeting. The elder replied.

"To put it simply, the empire has gathered a lot of people, who are the spokesmen of the major forces of the empire, the major chambers of commerce in commerce, the hall of glow, many grand dukes, border counts, princes, royal families of various kingdoms, and high-ranking people of various noble classes, plus a bunch of high-level professional associations, and the patriarchs or the strongest of many monster races attached to the empire."

"There are always one or two hundred people in the forest, including me, we have been summoned to the imperial capital for a meeting, the empire will have a lot of tasks for us to do, and after we finish it, there is a high probability that the situation will be able to stabilize again." Lu En said.

"Well, it's the Empire that is starting to gather forces and prepare for the next operation, I see, and then what? How do you plan to keep the concept of Angleo independent? The elder nodded, and continued to ask.

"The people convened this time, only about one-third of the human race, the royal families of the kingdoms, the grand dukes of the various principalities, as well as the top nobles of the empire, the pope of the church, these add up to about fifty people, and the rest, most of them are monsters, monsters living in the upper echelons of the human race, most of them are the leaders of a monster type, and I, the title is the king of monsters." Lu En said.

Most of these monsters are "retainers", such as the one mentioned earlier, Grand Duke Trella has a vulture tribe under his command and has a level 8 vulture king.

There are many clans like this, the Moon Wolf King, the Griffin King and the like, almost all of them are level 8, and Lu En, who is level 9, is actually the only seedling among all the monsters.

Of all the monster races, only he has a level 9, so he calls himself the king of monsters, and he will be recognized by many people, and the demon king city in its heyday does contain many different kinds of monsters, which is enough to be called a big city.

"Well...... But I don't think this title convinces anyone else, the King of Monsters is indeed your title, and you have ruled many monsters, but they have long been loyal to the Empire, and you can't make them work for you and use them for you. The elder questioned.

"No, I'm not going to put them to work for me, I just want to use this form of government, you see, I'm now the Earl of Angle, so the concept of Angleo is moving closer to the Empire, it's just forcibly cut off by the Boundary Monument, it will take a little time, but if it ...... Am I not the Count of Angleau anymore? Lu En said.

"Is it possible? If you were able to give up this status, you would not have accepted the knighthood in the first place, and the status of Count Angleau is the foundation of your empire. The elder frowned, he still didn't understand what the King of Monsters was going to do.

"I mean, tie the identity of Count Angler to the identity of the King of Monsters! I want to be the king of monsters in the open, not self-proclaimed, but an empire, and Ann Leo will become a kingdom, not a county! Lu En directly picked out the topic.

"Impossible! Humans would never let you do that! The Empire will not tolerate your move, nor will it take the initiative to give you this canonization! Your plan is completely implementable! The elder immediately retorted, and his expression was serious.

"What are you going to do to get the Empire to accept your proposal? They just made you an earl, and now you want them to confirm your status as the king of monsters, so that will grant you the natural political power to dictate the monsters in the empire, and the empire is not stupid, how can they be willing! As he spoke, the elder accidentally became a little excited, and then the flaming water in his hand boiled, so that he had to drink it all in one gulp, and choked on his cough.

Waiting for the other party to finish coughing, Lu En took a sip of water, and seemed to be there: "Next, that's why I want to say this." ”

"First of all, don't those monster tribes want to seek a higher status and more benefits? Actually, they want to, but obviously, they can't do it, because they don't have a leader, I can act as this leader, help the upper class of monsters to speak out, obviously, this is in their interests, and the ensuing political capital will also belong to me, which is enough to suppress the concept of the king of monsters and the concept of Count Anliu. ”

"If there is no intervention from the Empire, everything is indeed possible, but how do you guarantee that the Empire will not interfere, or ...... What do you exchange for imperial non-interference? In my opinion, you probably don't have such leverage. The elder said.

Of course he understood Lu En's words, but he had never regarded this as an option before, because the empire was not a fool, and it was impossible to agree to such a thing purely to promote Lu En.

"No, no, no, elder, I'm afraid you've forgotten a little." Lu En said with a smile.

"I am the blood of kings."

"The Styx Water Plant was destroyed by the two kings together, it is impossible for the Empire to send the Immortals to solve this matter in person, unless they want to annihilate all the kings of Hell, but this is impossible, the Immortals came to Hell in person, and the risk they face is too great, and it is impossible for humans to choose to bear such a risk!"

"So, they need me! I need a king to go to Hell to help them build the Styx Water Plant, solve the problem of the source of Hell Ice, and give me a false title in the face of the supply of Hell Ice, which I deserve, and only I can do it! "Lu En's words are conclusive!

The elder's expression kept changing, and he thought about it for about a minute, and found that ...... That's true.
