War preparedness, no matter which country is doing it, but the monarchs of all countries never say it, and one by one they fool the people with the slogan that only when the world is peaceful can the country be rich and the people strong.

It's a means, a political one.

Therefore, when I heard the old duke ridicule this matter in a rather surprised tone, I couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this normal, monarchs have ambitions, and if they have ambitions, they want to strengthen the country, they want to expand, they want to seize land, and if they want to do all this, the most basic element is the army, so it is not uncommon to prepare troops for war." ”

"It's natural to prepare for war, but the partner Simmons Locke found was very unexpected to me" The old duke laughed: "He actually chose a guy who is darker and more shady than him as an ally, I'm afraid that he will be used as a gun in the future, and I don't know it." ”

I pursed my lips, groaned slightly, and said, "Maybe he has been used as a gun by Carter Horton now." ”

"Huh?" The old duke smiled and said, "Tell the old man, what do you think now?" ”

"Just like we discussed before," I said, "I always feel that this mutation was made by Carter Scott's kid, in order to cover up the truth and divert attention, Carter Horton agreed to my request and pushed the Knights of the Round Table Guild to the forefront, and after the two sides fought, the person who came to destroy me was not Carter Horton's people, but Simmons Locke's army, from that moment on, I had a feeling that this Simmons Locken was afraid that he had fallen into Carter Horton's trap and become a sword he used at will, Since the defeat of the war and the three countries asking for compensation, Carter Horton has successfully transferred Simmons Locke's anger to us, putting him and us in a position where they are incompatible. ”

After hearing this, the old duke smiled, and said calmly: "Your analysis is very right, Carter Horton, this kid is really cunning, not only did he not lose a little, but he also gained a tough ally." ”

"Yes, it is a clever conspiracy to gain allies without losing anything."

The old duke waved his hand, not caring and said: "But it doesn't matter, after all, our relationship with York Hancheng has long been on the same footing, even if there is no such thing as an introduction, I am afraid it will be difficult to coexist." ”

The old man is right.

There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests.

The reason why Dasai City and Yorkham City are on the same page is nothing more than because the two countries share the same land, and they compete with each other and neither of them will give in to each other.

Although the reason is clear, it is impossible to untie this knot.

After all, everyone is a monarch, and if you want to occupy an extra piece of land, I want to too.

So it was with the monarch of Ari, so with the monarch of Yorkhan, and so with the monarch of Dasai.

Speaking of which, when all three parties have greed, they should be able to maintain a delicate balance with each other, support each other, and check and balance each other.

But who would have thought that the monarch family of Yorkhan was a family with eyes above the top, and looked down on any race other than the human race.

Whether you are a powerful orc, a dwarf as strong as a barrier, a gifted and intelligent goblin, an elf of the children of the forest, or a goblin of the proud son of the sky.

As long as it is a foreigner, his family looks down on it.

Because of this, York Hancheng has an ambiguous relationship with Eri City, which coexists on the same continent.

Although the two countries are still at odds, when it comes to matters related to Dasai, Yorkham will adopt a double standard - mainly fighting Dasai City, and other things will be supplemented.

To this day, this relationship has lasted for nearly a thousand years, and Dasai City and York Ham have long been two incompatible countries, and it is only because of the constraints of the Zephyr Continental Convention that they have always been in a stalemate with each other.

Now, the stalemate that has always been maintained has finally been broken, and the continent is afraid of another storm.

I couldn't help but be worried, and said: "This compensation, I'm afraid it touches Simmons Locke's bottom line, with his character, I'm afraid I can't swallow this breath, what are your plans for this?" ”

The old duke smiled and said: "In the past, it was my Dasai City that resisted the armies of the two countries, but now it is different, because of this compensation, Moonlight City and Vicky Castle cannot escape their resentment, if they want to continue to maintain a stable life, they can only unite to fight the enemy together, I guess, now, Your Majesty is discussing this matter with the monarchs of the two countries." ”

I took the old duke's words to heart, and in the middle of the night, when everyone was resting, I contacted Master Dewey and inquired about the situation.

Master Dewey's answer confirmed the old duke's conjecture.

By this time, the two kings of Vicky Castle, the Elf Empress and the Elven Empress of Moonlight City, and the Orc King of Dasai City had been discussing the current situation for six hours through the call crystal.

Although the final conclusion is still far away, it is certain that the three countries have reached a consensus on the joint confrontation between York Hancheng and Arishi.

After listening to Master Dewey's words, I was silent for a long time, sighed lightly, and said, "I always feel that it is because I have insisted on going my own way and dragging you into the water. ”

"You're thinking too much about this, kid," Master Dewey smiled and said, "We have long known about the kidnapping of foreign girls as slaves in Yorkhan, but we have never been able to find a proper excuse due to the restrictions of the Zephyr Continental Convention, and your incident can just become a link for us to take revenge on Yorkhan." ”

"Uh......" I was a little speechless, it turned out that I was just a bond to be taken advantage of.

Master Dewey said: "Xiao Yi, don't blame your father-in-law, it's just because your revenge and my plan happen to be connected, and I don't want to waste this opportunity, so it's like this." ”

"No, father-in-law," I said, "I don't blame you for worrying too much, but I just feel a little surprised." ”

"That's good," Master Dewey's tone softened slightly.

"By the way, father-in-law," I said, "what do you think of this mutation?" ”

"The human bloodline does not mutate because of death," Master Dewey said, "at least the current state of science and technology can determine this." ”

"That means ......"

"Skarsa and Hellrest, their bodies, have been manipulated."

"No wonder," I said thoughtfully, "Otherwise, how could a dead person mutate into a blue-skinned walking corpse, Skarsa is even more exaggerated, and he turned into a living ice dragon, although the hard power seems to be inferior to that of a young dragon, but it is also a dragon!" ”
