Chapter 323: Truce
"Your Majesty Cameron, we meet again." Looking at Cameron, who was older than before in the magic crystal, the corners of Chu Heng's mouth were slightly upturned, but his face did not show an overly arrogant look. Although this conflict did take a big advantage, not only swallowing the Nar Star Domain but also eating a lot of troops of the Dark Council, his losses were not small, and there was nothing to be proud of.
However, Chu Heng didn't look humble at all, he only showed that the victory of this war would naturally be the appearance of the Zerg, and that confidence not only came from Chu Heng's heart, but also showed it to Cameron. He didn't want this armistice agreement to become a piece of waste paper in such a short period of time as a few months or a year or two and let the two sides rekindle the flames of war, so Chu Heng had to let Cameron understand that he still had hole cards, and if Cameron started a war again, it would definitely outweigh the losses and even hit his head and bleed.
"Juggernaut, since we have negotiated an armistice two days ago, we don't need too much nonsense, you immediately lift the siege of the Co-Missile, as long as your promise is valid, there will be real peace between us." Cameron didn't care too much about Chu Heng's expression, but looked plain. However, Chu Heng knew that his heart must be uncomfortable, and letting a stubborn king who thought he could compare to any emperor bow his head would undoubtedly hurt him greatly.
However, Chu Heng didn't care about this, as long as he still had what Cameron needed in his hand, he couldn't turn it over Chu Heng's palm.
"Of course my promise works! This miraculous liquid is called the eaux-de-vie, and I have already introduced it to you. It can extend your lifespan by at least two years. Chu Heng paused for a moment and then added, "If you use the Chrono Teleportation to hand over this bottle of water of life to you, it will only take a short hour to be enough, and then you will naturally understand its magical effects, and there is no need for me to lie to you." ”
"Hmph. If you dare to deceive me, then the consequences will be serious, I have already explained everything, once there is a problem with your water of life, my Tammy Empire will definitely pour all the strength of the whole country to destroy your empire, I hope you don't play any tricks. Cameron snapped.
Seeing Cameron's appearance, Chu Heng secretly shook his head, if this cautious old man hadn't been cornered, he wouldn't have believed Chu Heng's words at all, and he wouldn't have any hope for this water of life. However, if Chu Heng and the other party are empathized, Chu Heng can also understand his feelings, this kind of ambivalence of wanting to seize the last glimmer of hope and being afraid of the other party's conspiracy is indeed maddening.
"What I need is a permanent peace between us, not a temporary ceasefire. You'll understand my sincerity. Chu Heng didn't explain too much, with the other party's position, even if he explained more, it would not be possible to exchange the other party's trust for it, but it might be self-defeating, so Chu Heng didn't say anything more after saying this.
Cameron nodded. Then he hesitated for a moment and then said, "Can you give me a few more bottles of this water of life?" I can trade anything you want. ”
Chu Heng sneered psychologically, this Cameron is really ...... Chu Heng didn't know how to describe him, obviously he didn't believe it just now, but now he wanted to ask for a few more bottles. However, this problem has been explained in the secret negotiations between him and Cameron two days ago, and it is his bottom line to only give Cameron a bottle of water of life. If Cameron had to ask for more than two bottles before he was willing to cease fire, Chu Heng would rather not have this ceasefire agreement and continue to fight. Until Cameron couldn't hold it anymore and took the initiative to ask for a ceasefire.
Because this involves Chu Heng's strategy with the Dark Council in the future, and it is the most critical step in it.
"We've already argued about this before, my conditional power is only a bottle of water of life, this kind of thing is extremely rare even in my empire, and it's impossible to take out too much, so you don't have to bother talking anymore." Chu Heng shook his head and said.
"I'm not saying to add this to your conditions, I'm not asking you for free, I can pay you everything you want."
"Oh?" Chu Heng made a thinking move. Then he raised his head to Cameron and said, "The production of this eaux-de-vie is extremely limited, and it is only supplied to a very small number of high-level people in my empire to prolong their lives. If I sell you another bottle, then I can only reduce the ration for them. There are many people who rely on the water of life to hang their lives, and I will not let my most loyal generals die because of you......"
After hearing this, Cameron was not disappointed, but a fine light flashed in his eyes, and Chu Heng's words made him believe in this magical water of life a little bit. As for what Chu Heng said, Cameron didn't take it to heart at all, loyal general? Loyalty is only because the price of buying him is not enough, and Cameron does not believe that there is any loyalty in this world. Moreover, he believed that as long as he paid enough to make Chu Heng's heart move, Chu Heng would definitely abandon the so-called loyal general without hesitation......
"Tell me, what do you really want? You don't have to open your mouth widely, although I spare my life, I haven't reached the level of doing everything, if you want me to harm the interests of the Tammy Empire, then we don't have to talk about it at all. Cameron knew that Chu Heng was not a fool and must have guessed his desire for life, and it didn't make any sense to hide it, it was better to say his bottom line directly.
Chu Heng had long expected such a result, although Cameron was afraid of death and still attached to power, he still had his own principles and bottom line.
"A bottle of eaux-de-vie has 8,000 tons of standard Thai ore with a purity of 60 percent, that is, 2.8 million tra of Thai ore."
Cameron's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said with an incredulous expression: "I heard you right, right? 2,800,000 Terra of Thai mines? Do you know what the 2.8 million Tra Thai mine means? It seems that you have no sincerity at all, so we don't have to talk about it anymore. ”
Chu Heng didn't care about Cameron's reaction, the so-called sky-high asking price was a bargain, although the price he gave was indeed scary, but it was not non-negotiable. However, Chu Heng didn't want to discuss the price of the water of life with Cameron now, with Chu Heng's eyesight, it was not difficult to see that Cameron's lifespan was less than a year, even if he took the water of life he gave, he would extend his lifespan by two years at most, and when he was really about to die, he would definitely get the desired result by talking to him by himself.
And now Cameron has not confirmed the effect of the water of life, so he still has doubts in his heart, and when he really understands what the water of life means, Chu Heng is not afraid that he will not continue to do business with him. Chu Heng suddenly felt that this feeling of playing with the lifespan of a huge empire monarch was too wonderful, even if he had a powerful empire, what could he do? No matter how powerful his empire is, it can't save his dying life, and only by controlling the KEY Life Realm and the Water of Life can he truly have the capital to compete with the law of life.
The elven clan's water of life is so amazing that it has almost touched the life realm of KEY, which makes Chu Heng have to doubt the relationship between KEY and the elf clan, or that the elf clan should have been created by KEY, but there are still many questions and contradictions, but there are too few clues, Chu Heng can't analyze anything, so he doesn't think about it anymore.
Chu Heng and Cameron talked about the details of the peace negotiation again, and then hurriedly finalized the general regulations of the peace negotiation, and the next step is to let their subordinates continue to discuss the details of the treaty, and there is no need for Chu Heng and Cameron to worry about it anymore, because the general direction Chu Heng and Cameron have already negotiated.
The final result is more than 30 articles, the most important of which are the following.
1. The Tami Empire unilaterally recognized the Great Chu Empire's lease of the Nar Star Domain, but the Great Chu Empire needed to pay 10,000 Tratra of Thai ore to the Dark Council as a lease fee.
2. The Great Chu Empire must send troops to assist the Dark Council in attacking the Akara Kingdom.
3. The gateway to the Domon Star Domain, the Kotil Star, was leased to the Great Chu Empire for a hundred years, and after a hundred years, it had to be returned to the Republic of Dotkarra.
4. The two sides sign a 100-year armistice agreement, and the two sides must not have any provocations, otherwise it will be counted as a breach of contract.
5. The Great Chu Empire must stop continuing to spread the virus, otherwise all agreements will be null and void.
Although the sentence in the treaty is more euphemistic, a discerning person can see at a glance that this is the Tammy Empire itself looking for a step down and leasing it to the Great Chu Empire's Nar Star Domain? Can you get it back without renting? 10,000 Terra rental fee? The production of Thai mines in the Nar Star Domain is more than ten times that of this number in a year.
As for the other regulations, they were just to find a step to allow the Tammy Empire to unilaterally sign this agreement and get the support of the other two countries, and Cameron did not expect Chu Heng to really contribute to the Dark Council to attack the Akara Kingdom. Because he knew very well in his heart that the premise of this agreement was that the Akara Kingdom had not been destroyed, otherwise without the containment of the Akara Kingdom, the Tami Empire would not hesitate to tear up the agreement and attack the Great Chu Empire.
And the only substantial benefit that the Tammy Empire can get from all the regulations is that the Zerg stop spreading the virus, and now the epidemic prevention work of the Z virus in the Domon Star Domain has become meaningless because Morgana continues to send warships to sneak in and spread it everywhere, which also makes everyone in the Domon Star Domain endangered, and there is no way to help the Dark Council.
And now the doctors of the Tammy Empire still haven't found a way to completely solve the Z virus, it is said that the experts of the Tammy Empire have developed as many as 100 kinds of vaccines in these dozens of days, but each vaccine can only take effect for two days at most, and the virus will mutate and become resistant to drugs after a long time, and this terrifying mutation speed directly makes all the experts of the Tammy Empire worried.
