When Lin Chi sat up from the big bed in the young master's room and stretched out, a new day in this game began.

After gaining the Time Lapse skill, his in-game "sleep" time is also relatively shorter.

The time agreed upon yesterday is almost up, and now should be the time for the envoys of Warscar City to come and visit.

According to the letterhead, the envoy was supposed to be here to negotiate an alliance. However, with the "life experience" of being assassinated in the main hall last time, Lin Chi naturally would not take it lightly.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Shen Wenchong's voice came from outside:

"My lord, the messenger is about to arrive."

"I see." Lin Chi said as he put on a blue robe, took out the Dark Sword and the Heavenly Sky Sword from the box, and hung them on his waist.

All kinds of equipment in the Flame Wind Palace were readily available, and he naturally obtained a portable backpack. But this kind of weapon is still a little more convenient to carry around.

Lin Chi opened the door of the young master's room and saw that Shen Wenchong was already waiting in front of the door.

At this time, Shen Wenchong had already put on the ancient machine armor, and the attribute value under the lord's eye also immediately improved by leaps and bounds:

Character name: Shen Wenchong.

Power: 87.

Dexterity: 95.

Endurance: 86.

Lucky: 12.

Skills have been taught.

Perhaps because he hadn't completely mastered that set of armor, Shen Wenchong was still not up to the combat power of the previous assassin. However, it is already more than enough to serve as a guard.

"My lord, please don't let up, the other party may assassinate." Shen Wenchong's expression was very serious, and he still had heavy dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept well.

"Don't be nervous, Shen Wenchong." Lin Chi teased, "Are you still thinking about the Assassin Temple?" ”

He just said it casually, but he didn't expect Shen Wenchong to admit it: "Yes, I had a nightmare last night." ”

"Don't be nervous, there are so many people here, there won't be ghosts." Lin Chi looked at the door of the main hall as he spoke.

Moria, who had entered the secret door of the Assassin Temple, had not returned until now. It seems that it is necessary to have the commander of the assassination unit come over and explain what exactly is in it.

Of course, it's better to finish the talks first.

Lin Chi strode out of the lord's room, turned around and gently closed the door, and walked towards the Iron Throne in the center of the main hall under Shen Wenchong's escort, and as usual, put his two swords on both sides of the seat.

After waiting for a short time, a herald stepped forward and reported:

"The messenger has arrived."

"Let him in."

With Lin Chi's voice, the wooden door of the main hall opened outward again. Under the "escort" of several red-armored soldiers, the messenger from Warscar City strode into the main hall of the Flame Wind Palace:

Unlike Flamewind's side of Flamewind, which prefers simple cloth clothing, the messenger of Warscar City wears a fur coat, with shriveled wolf claws on his shoulders and a wolf's head on his hood. It looks like a wolf has been skinned, and the skin is washed off and the fur is directly put on the body.

The emissary's face was as rugged as his dress, and a scar stretched from the left side of his forehead to the right corner of his mouth.

His face was a little red, and he looked like he was very hot. But even so, he didn't take off his fur coat, but just bowed slightly to Lin Chi according to the etiquette of Battle Scar City:

"You are the Lord of Flamewind City, I am an emissary from Warscar City, and this time I am here to discuss peace talks."

This person's performance was quite normal, but the guards of Flame Wind City next to him still raised their vigilance, and Shen Wenchong also took a step forward and stood next to the throne, ready to activate the "Ancient Exoskeleton" at any time.

"yes, I know."

Lin Chi opened the Lord's Eye as he spoke, trying to discern the other party's attribute value, but of course he found nothing.

Since the emissary was not a resident of Flamewind City, the Lord's Eye could not tell the person's status. The only thing that's certain now is that this guy is definitely a fighter.

Perhaps because of the fierce demeanor of the people of Warscarred City, this person speaks unusually straightforwardly, coupled with a rough voice with a sense of grain, but it is quite a bit of a "nomad" atmosphere:

"Our lord made a request for peace talks, and the two sides declared a truce together, on the condition that you pay us a monthly tribute of two thousand gold coins and provide three hundred catties of grain."

“……”

As soon as these words came out, the red-armored guards present almost drew their swords directly, Shen Wenchong's body was also trembling slightly, but Lin Chi was still very calm, and asked:

"You're not afraid I'll kill you now?"

"Even if you cut me, it's useless." The envoy was very calm, without any sign of fear of death at all, and directly put life and death out of the way: "It is an indisputable fact that Warscar City is stronger than Flame Wind City. You should be able to admit it, right? ”

"I don't know." Lin Chi shook his head.

"You visited there two months ago." Shen Wenchong reminded in a low voice.

"Lord, you seem to be a little forgetful." The envoy stared straight into Lin Chi's eyes: "Have you forgotten the last time you came to Warscar City, you kept marveling?" ”

"Well, I did forget." Lin Chi smiled.

Seeing that the envoy was about to continue speaking, the lord on the throne suddenly spoke again, and pushed back the other party's words:

"The territory that is about to be overtaken by Flamewind City, there is no need to remember anything at all."

In fact, Lin Chi really didn't know what War Scar City was like now, the last time the "Young Master" visited was something that happened before he logged into the game.

However, in the face of such disgraceful emissaries, there is no need to use "diplomatic rhetoric" himself.

Judging from the information obtained so far, Warscar City should belong to the territory of nomads, and these guys have a unique rugged and heroic atmosphere no matter how they dress or talk and behave.

If you want to communicate with this kind of person, if you show humility, it will only make the other person even more arrogant. Only by being tough is the right choice.

"Lord, are you not going to stop fighting with us?" The envoy of Warscar City grinned, revealing his scorched teeth: "Last month, your army was still being beaten by us at the border, do you still want to repeat the mistakes of the past?" ”

"I can accept the armistice, but I won't give you money and food." Lin Chi's attitude was very tough.

Now that the development of Flamewind City and the slums outside the city is underway, a lot of money and food are needed, and now it is completely unacceptable for Lin Chi to allocate some resources to the neighboring countries.

Moreover, according to the experience that Lin Chi learned from the history books, if he behaves too softly in the face of this kind of neighboring country that has begun to ask for money, the other party will only intensify and further propose more unequal treaties.

There was silence in the main hall for a while, and the messenger reached out and touched the scar on his face, and the roll of paper he was holding in his hand was directly crumpled by him:

"I see."

After speaking, the messenger turned to leave, and the tall back disappeared outside the main hall.
