Chapter 153: The Kingdom's Compromise

"What's new?"

An Baichen asked curiously: "Didn't you say that his prophecy technique is not a waste skill, can he successfully predict something?"

"This ......"

Baron Edra was a little dumbfounded, he did say so about Garcia.

I don't know if I overstimulated him, Garcia has been painstakingly studying his prophecy during this time, wanting to prove his strength.

"Tell me, what the hell is new. ”

"Lord Death, he said that he had found the location of a new secret stone vein through prophecy. ”

"Oh?!"

An Baichen's interest came: "Did he really say that?"

"Yes. ”

Baron Edra said respectfully, "Garcia just came to tell me about this matter this morning, and I received a contact from Lord Death before I could tell Lord Death. ”

Amberson groaned, he felt that Garcia had not deceived Edla, and that he should have really found the location of the secret stone vein through prophecy.

After all, he had a successful prediction of the location of a secret stone vein, and it was that successful prophecy that led Baron Edra to discover that there was a secret stone vein buried deep in the land near his territory.

It's a pity that the veins of Nanshan have been almost dug up now, and just when Edra had a headache, Garcia actually successfully performed the prophecy technique again.

"Lord Death, do you think Garcia's words can be trusted?"

"Nothing credible or not, just go and look where he predicted. ”

"But, Lord Death, ......"

Baron Edra said with a wry smile: "The location he predicted is the hinterland of the Ruin Forest Kingdom, which is extremely far away from the City of the Dead, and even if there is really a secret stone vein there, it will be extremely difficult to mine. ”

"And the Ruin Forest Kingdom knows that we are mining the veins that originally belonged to them under their noses, and I am afraid that they will fight with us endlessly. ”

"Never die?"

An Baichen smiled: "As long as you operate well, they don't have the guts." ”

"Reaper-sama, what do you mean ......?"

"Behave well, this is your chance to show me what you're capable of, Edla. ”

An Baichen said lightly: "You know what I need, this time the communication and next contact between the City of the Dead and the Ruin Forest Kingdom will all be handed over to you." ”

"I see, Lord Death. ”

Baron Edra knew that Lord Death was very interested in the location of the newly discovered secret stone vein, and if there really was a complete secret stone vein here, then Lord Death would definitely not give up.

Lord Death doesn't want to get into trouble, but if the Ruin Forest Kingdom really wants to do something crooked, then Lord Death won't be afraid of trouble.

I must do everything I can to get my hands on this vein of secret stones!

After cutting off contact, Edra pondered, and he summoned the top management of the City of the Dead, Yan Yumo and Garcia, and several people gathered around the council chamber to discuss the matter.

After the development of the City of the Dead during this period of time, there are more than just two high-level personnel, Yan Yumo and Edla.

After Yan Yumo and Edla's selection, they have selected a group of good and loyal management talents in the City of the Dead.

In order to ensure their loyalty, Yan Yumo specially asked An Baichen for a few pages of the [Treasure Book of the Reaper], making them the new undead summoners.

Everyone was discussing closely what kind of way to negotiate with the Russen Kingdom.

"We must complete the mission of Lord Death, not only to let the Ruin Forest Kingdom see the power of our City of the Dead, but also to get a new secret stone vein!"

Edra glanced at everyone and asked in a deep voice, "Do you have any good ideas and opinions?"

Baron Edra knew that he had a few pounds and a few taels, and he would not engage in any dictatorship in the City of the Dead.

Even if he wanted to, the Divine Envoy would not agree.

"Lord Edla, since the Sand City has won a war, I don't think the Ruin Forest Kingdom will choose to collide with us head-on at this time. ”

"None of the 300,000 soldiers and the knights led by three high-ranking knights can conquer the Sand City, and most of the Rusen Kingdom is now seriously injured, so we can directly send people to negotiate with the Russen Kingdom. ”

"No, I think we can take the means of war further, use the 7,000 undead forces of Sand City to directly advance, and annex the Ruin Forest Kingdom! Even if we can't do it, we can also lay down the area where there may be secret stone veins. ”

......

Everyone discussed fiercely, and one plan and idea after another came out, and Baron Edra frowned and thought.

The Rusen Kingdom is only a medium-sized economic kingdom, and the military strength is not too strong, and the 300,000 troops are already half of the strength of the Rusen Kingdom.

At least in terms of the number of ordinary soldiers, the Kingdom of Russen has lost more than half of its professional soldiers, but they still retain enough Knight Legion strength.

In fact, in terms of the current combat power of the City of the Dead and the City of Sand, the Ruin Forest Kingdom does not pose the slightest threat at all, and seven thousand undead warriors are enough to destroy the Ruin Forest Kingdom.

Although the Kingdom of Ruin Forest is no longer able to pose a threat to the City of the Dead, it can determine what Lord Death thinks of me in this matter.

If I blindly adopt the means of war, will it make Lord Death think that I am a reckless man without brains?

Baron Edra wasn't worried about how to deal with the Ruin Kingdom, he was thinking about how to win the favor of Lord Death, or how he would deal with it without annoying Lord Death.

"Lord Death should pay more attention to the outcome and the aftermath of this matter, if you rashly send troops to attack the Russen Kingdom, it will definitely make the people of the Eske Continent panic. ”

"After all, the undead are outsiders to the people of the Esker continent, creatures that have never been touched. This time, the issue of dealing with the Kingdom of Hexu Sen determined the views and attitudes of the various forces on the Esko Continent towards the City of the Dead. ”

"If the City of the Dead swallows up the Kingdom of the Ruins, people who have seen the terrifying power of the undead will inevitably come together to deal with the City of the Dead, and then the City of the Dead will usher in waves of war, and we will be in constant trouble. ”

Baron Edra pondered carefully in his heart, weighing the pros and cons.

He felt that he should not only see the immediate benefits, but also analyze the long-term situation.

No matter what kind of position the Russen Kingdom is in, the destruction of the Russen Kingdom by the City of the Undead will inevitably leave a murderous impression on the various forces of the Eske Continent.

In the face of a powerful existence that may threaten their own security, it is the most basic operation for everyone to resist together, and no one will hand over their own security to an unfamiliar and unfamiliar powerful force.

Lord Death has made it clear that he hates trouble, so he must not let the City of the Dead become the public enemy of the entire Eske continent.

Baron Edra told everyone what he thought, and after a whole day of discussion, they finally decided to stay on hold for the time being, and sent an emissary to inform the Kingdom of Russen to redeem Leonard and the high-ranking knight Yardli.

According to the attitude of the Ruin Forest Kingdom, the City of the Dead will take corresponding measures to respond to all changes.

Even if the Rusen Kingdom finally insists on starting a war, then the City of the Dead is also on the defensive side, and even if the world knows the horror of the undead, they will not have too much overreaction to besiege the City of the Undead.

"That's it!"

Baron Edra stood up and ended the meeting: "Let's work together, we must complete the mission of Lord Death!"

"The glory of Lord Death lives on forever!"

The crowd shouted in admiration, bowed respectfully, and left the chamber.

In the following time, An Baichen did not interfere in the handling of the Ruin Forest Kingdom in the City of the Dead, he just silently observed Edla's actions.

The Eske continent is the world he decided to conquer, but after Amberson conquered the Eske continent, he still needs people who can be trusted enough to manage it, and there must be a spokesperson to convey the will of death on the Eske continent.

There is no one more suitable to be this spokesperson than Edla, but Anberchen will not leave his conquered Otherworld to Edra for no reason, he must see Edla's ability.

It can't be said that An Baichen finally fought down the country, but it was all buried because of the stupidity and incompetence of the spokesperson, right?

Commanding the City of the Dead to contact with the Ruin Forest Kingdom is just a trivial matter, if you can't even do this thing well, what qualifications do you have to become a spokesperson to manage the entire Eske Continent?

As for Edla's decision to cautiously approach the Ruin Forest Kingdom, An Baichen actually understood very well.

He knew exactly what Edra was worried about, nothing more than the fear that the City of the Dead would be too strong and cause the crowd to be angry.

"Those who keep it will not dare to take risks. ”

Amberson gave an evaluation of Edla's decision, but Amberson was also satisfied, he didn't expect Edra to be amazingly talented in the first place.

Sometimes a cautious personality is more suitable for being a spokesperson to manage the other world.

On the seventh day after the end of the Battle of Sand City, the situation of the battle continued to disperse as the soldiers who fled continued to break outward, and the entire Ruin Forest Kingdom was boiling.

An army of 300,000, three high-ranking knights, and thousands of knights were all destroyed!

The Rusen Kingdom gathered less than 100,000 defeated troops, more than half of whom died on the battlefield of Sand City, and many soldiers fled to foreign lands in fear of punishment.

As for the knights who came back, there were less than a hundred, and all three high-ranking knights were killed!

Such a tragic battle report made King Xusen unable to believe his eyes.

When did the group of merchants in the Sand City have such a strong fighting power?

Where did they come from the army?

"Could it be that there is an enemy army in ambush in the Sand City, or is there a wizard in the Sand City with the Snowy Night Castle?"

Apart from these two points, the king could no longer think of any other possibility.

Otherwise, even 300,000 pigs would not have been defeated so quickly.

"Powerful corpses and skeletons, they can't be killed, and ghosts can't be harmed?

The king could not believe the news from the soldiers who had fled back, it was a fantasy.

Just when the king was shocked and uncertain about the outcome of the battle, a minister entered the palace overnight and said, "Your Majesty, the city of sand has sent an envoy to negotiate with us. ”

"What do they want to talk about?"

"It's about the redemption terms of Archduke Leonard and Yardli. ”

"What? Sand City put Leonard and Yardley under house arrest?"

The king was furious, no wonder Leonard had been missing and never returned, he thought that Baron Edra had such great ability to defeat an archduke and a high-ranking knight, and did the good deeds that the group of merchants in the sand city had done for a long time.

"Your Majesty, it wasn't the Sand City that captured Leonard and Yardli. ”

The minister smiled bitterly and said, "It was Leonard and Yardli who attacked the City of the Dead and were captured. ”

"City of the Dead? What the hell is going on! Why is there a City of the Dead in my country? Why don't I know about it!"

"Your Majesty, the City of the Dead is the domain of Baron Edla, and a city has been established in the depths of the Gobi, called the City of the Dead, and they have declared their independence. ”

"This is a betrayal! a betrayal of the Kingdom of the Ruins!"

The king was roaring, and he was furious.

The descendants of the Shining Knight actually chose to betray themselves.

"Your Majesty, I have heard that the defeat of the City of Sand was due to the City of the Dead. ”

"There are countless more undead warriors in the Sand City, just from the City of the Undead, and I have heard that there are more undead warriors in the City of the Undead. ”

The minister's expression was very serious: "Your Majesty, this is not a trivial matter, if the news is true, I am afraid that the Kingdom of Xusen will usher in the biggest disaster in history." ”

The king's body trembled as he sat on the throne, and he knew very well what the minister's information meant.

The undead of the Sand City have already defeated his army of 300,000 and three high-ranking knights, if the City of the Undead sends more undead warriors, will the Ruin Forest Kingdom be able to stop it?

This is a problem that the king has to face.

This city of the undead that came out of nowhere is enough to threaten the safety of the Ruin Forest Kingdom!

"Let the messenger of the City of the Dead come to the royal capital, and I accept the request for negotiation. ”

The king's voice was hoarse, as if he had aged a few years in an instant.

In the face of the mysterious and powerful City of the Dead, he could not continue to maintain his strong side, so he could only choose to back down and further contact and understand the City of the Dead.
