Chapter 1189: Each has a ghost
As if he didn't notice the contemptuous gaze of these two people, Li Ran smiled and continued: "But what I didn't expect was that as soon as I landed on the island, the two of you would send troops to encircle and suppress them so tacitly, Lord Edith!" As for your Holy Falcon Alliance, I can guess that the main envoy of your alliance this time should be the Duke of Hernandos of the Elolan Empire who ran away, and you and the Duke of Tolkien were just bewitched by him."
Hearing Li Ran's words, the Duke of Edith from Greenom couldn't help but have a chill in his eyes, but just for an instant, he pretended to look at Li Ran as if nothing had happened. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Ran didn't seem to care about his cover-up, and for him, some things just had to be brought up.
And then, he turned his head to Antipater and said with a smile: "As for the only thing that surprised me on this trip, it was undoubtedly your sudden visit, because with the Holy Falcon Alliance clearly making moves, you really don't have a reason to be in such a hurry, it seems that before this, the reputation of our Khan Rock Empire was so bad that you don't even want to wait for this time."
Although he didn't say anything, but at this time, Antipater's natural expression showed everything, and then Li Ran suddenly smiled and said: "Just now the two adults asked me, what is the purpose of calling you here at the same time this time, I can tell you clearly now, I was called by King Khan Rock to come here, although I have angered both of you at the same time, but I am not ready to give up, I can solemnly promise now that I am willing to cooperate with one of you, as for the two adults, Only one person will survive this time! And on top of the murder weapon that killed him, I held it with one of you! ”
Suddenly hearing Li Ran's words, Edith and Antipater couldn't help but be shocked, and the next moment they unconsciously glanced at each other, and saw each other's shock from their eyes.
Although they were captured, with their status, they never thought that this person would dare to attack them, but what they never expected was that this guy in front of them was so crazy, and he told them about it to their faces.
As rivals for many years, Edith and Antipater can be said to hate and hate each other, and the determination to kill each other has long existed, but they never dreamed that their life and death would be controlled by an outsider in the end.
"You're such a madman! Do you think that such a threat to the Empire will lead to our two consents? After the initial shock, the Duke of Antipat, from Saranca, could not help but roar in anger: "Do you know the consequences of your actions! ”
At this moment, Li Ran said indifferently: "The strong get glory, but the weak also have dignity, I came here to pioneer by the king's order, and I have never provoked any of you, including the envoys and captives you blamed in the early stage, and I have never hurt the slightest, but your Holy Falcon Alliance has always regarded itself as bright and righteous, not only ignoring our reasonable requests and goodwill, directly organizing and sending coalition forces to attack, but even more hateful!" What is the reason why you allowed Tolkien, the murderer, to kill our envoys? ”
Speaking of this, perhaps thinking of the tragic death of Giodano, Li Ran also turned to Antipater with a solemn face and said: "And on the side of your Saranca Empire, I have always respected the barbarian heroes who love and hate clearly and act decisively, including in my legion, there are several barbarian groups, which have followed me to fight in the north and south until now, and as for their people, they are the first batch of permanent residents after I built the city, so my diplomat, after coming here, the first to visit is also you, but what about what you have done, But it is deliberately delayed! Dispatch troops to sneak attack behind! I admit that our Khan Lock Empire is small and is also a weak side in front of the two of you, but the dignity of the weak can only be trampled on by you like this! ”
Hearing Li Ran's sonorous and powerful words, they even felt a little hoarse at the end, and at this time, the two of them also saw that this Prince Terres was definitely a lord with a gentle appearance but a resolute heart.
At this moment, when they saw the nature of this Prince of Terres, and knew that this fellow was a man who could do the same thing under the gentle exterior, Antipater and Edith could not help but fall silent.
Let's be honest! Although it is inevitable that they are a little worried and angry at this time because their lives are threatened, as a duke and lord, the two of them actually understand this person's decision very well, and when their dignity is trampled on and their survival is threatened, they can also do such a thing.
Now the situation is very clear, this guy is doing this is nothing more than to reach an agreement with one of them in this way, and then complete the foundation of his foothold on Roaring Island, although this move is a bit crazy and ridiculous, but because of this, it makes these two people feel even more overwhelmed.
No one wants to provoke a madman, even a barbarian who is known for his strength and fearlessness, seeing the excited expression of the Prince of Territh in front of them, the two of them know very well that if they don't agree to this person's request, no matter what the outcome of this guy will be in the future, but first of all, the two of them will definitely die.
"Don't you think that in the way this matter is handled, you will be a little too impulsive" After the mood of Prince Territh in front of him stabilized a little, Duke Edith couldn't help but persuade: "You must know that if you do this, not to mention whether you can get the support of one of us, but it will definitely make you and your Khan Rock Empire become the eternal enemies of one of us!" And with the strength of either of us, I'm sure even your lord won't be able to withstand this kind of wrath! ”
Knowing that this guy seemed to be talking so much from the other party's point of view, but he was actually worried about his fate, Antipat glanced at him with some disdain.
As for what Edith said, Li Ran said without hesitation: "I understand what you mean, but I know my own ability better, compared to any of you, we are all at our fingertips, so for us, there is no possibility of becoming a third-party force between you, and for the person in power behind you, there will definitely be no third competitor, so I can only stand in line with a clear banner now, and I will have a chance to gain a foothold here."
At this moment, the two of them also nodded by default, as an imperial duke, they also saw that this Terryth was not only a little crazy and impulsive, but also very accurate in looking at the problem, if he wanted to use the contradiction between the Holy Falcon Alliance and the Saranka Empire, how could he become a third party here, it would be really stupid, because whether it was the ruling council of the former, or the Anatoly king of the latter sitting in the Holy Court, even if he gave up his previous suspicions and cooperation, he would never allow such a thing to happen.
Even this guy had already made such a crazy bet at this time, and Edith and Antipater, who were captives, had no choice but to accept it.
Fortunately, these two people are well-informed people, and they have been in high positions for many years, so they are obviously not surprised at this moment, but after all, this matter involves their own lives, so when they talked about the specific agreement later, the two of them, including Antipater, also listened carefully.
"If you insist that the Council hand over Duke Tolkien, then you might as well kill me now" At this time, Edith of Greenom couldn't help but speak: "Our Holy Falcon Alliance has long been clearly stipulated that we will never give up the interests of any country in anything, not to mention that Tolkien is still a duke of the Alton Empire, although he is at fault under the bewitchment of Hernandos this time, the Council will never agree to your request!" ”
Judging from the current situation, as long as both of them are willing, this Prince of Terris has a significantly greater chance of cooperation with Saranca, but because of the matter of Giodano first, the only request Li Ran made at this time was for the side of the Holy Falcon Alliance, so Edith also interrupted.
It seemed that after thinking for a long time, Li Ran nodded and said: "Even if you say so, considering that this person did this under the condition of being bewitched by others, as long as he personally admits his mistake and compensates Count Giodano and the families of the accompanying peace negotiators for sufficient living expenses, I will not pursue this matter anymore."
Seeing that the Prince of Tyres had finally given in after thinking for a long time, the Duke of Edith breathed a long sigh of relief, and to be honest, he was full of confidence in the Empire's cooperation with him after listening to the near-upside-down request for an agreement.
Because no matter as he said, he will only develop on the other side's territory, willing to pay an astonishing amount of taxes, or willing to obey the command of the empire, and act as a vanguard when the war needs it, the agreement reached with this crazy guy, although it seems to be cooperation, is actually more like raising a thug or a vicious dog, which is beneficial and harmless to the empire.
At this time, the only disadvantage was removed, and Edith was full of confidence, and when he later saw that Antipater was also considering, he suddenly felt shocked, and decided that in his reply to the letter to the lord and the council, it was necessary to highlight the matter.
I don't know if it was out of fear for his own life, which caused a change in thinking, or when he saw that this Prince of Terres had positioned himself so low in the agreement, and cooperation was not impossible or even profitable for his side, the incomprehension and anger when he heard the news before were suddenly gone, whether they were out of their own or for the country's considerations at this time, anyway, Edith and Antipater had their own little calculations in their hearts.
Because of this, after listening to Li Ran's simple conditions, Edith and Antipater couldn't help but look at each other warily, and then left here on the pretext of writing a letter to reply to the empire.
