Chapter 371: Unexpected Negotiations
Irene is also depressed now.
Although Ion said that he would leave this matter to himself, Irene is really anxious now, on the one hand, since she is the princess of the Night Country, it is naturally impossible for her to betray the country. And conversely, since she was appointed plenipotentiary by Rhodes, she could not have been perfunctory like this. It's not that Ireen has any personal emotional entanglements with Rod, but that she is essentially the same as Lydia, she belongs to that kind of perfectionist, either don't do it or do it well, and being passive or slacking off is definitely not in line with Irene's aesthetics, and now she only expects both parties to take a step back, but Ireen herself doesn't know how far she can go. Because now it is Rod who takes the initiative, and she is not without her own channels, although what Rod said at the beginning did not reach Irene's ears, but in contact with Rode, Ireen also knew that Rod was a very tough master, and he sometimes preferred to lose both sides rather than back down.
And Ireen knew that the Night Country was not without weaknesses, that is, compared to the strongest force, the Night Country was too poor, and now in the Void Domain, according to Irene's induction, at least five or six people were at the strength level of the Four Demon Generals, and even above this. And this conflict also proved that Irene's opinion was quite conservative——— the four demon generals were killed and one was injured, and Barende almost didn't come back!
Irene can be sure that if the Void Realm and the Night Kingdom really fight, the Void Realm may suffer heavy losses, and the Night Nation is even more likely to encounter big trouble, not to mention anything else, as long as Rod's subordinates kill all the high-end powerhouses of the Night Country, then the entire Night Kingdom will collapse immediately——— the powerhouses of the Night Country are completely built by time, and the infinite time gives them enough preparation, fifty years, one hundred years, three hundred years. Five hundred years, one thousand years. Many of the high-end powerhouses in the Night Nation are actually exemplars of "hard work can make up for shortcomings", they may not have enough talent, but enough patience and enough wisdom to ensure that as long as they have enough time, then they will definitely be able to stand out. That's why the high-end force value of the Night Nation is so strong, which is also the guarantee of the Night Nation's strength.
But. If Rhodes led people to sweep all of these away, then the Night Nation would be finished, because in terms of strength, those low-level undead creatures were uncompetitive with humans. Maybe in 510 years, another group of undead creatures will stand out——— but at that time, I don't know how many strong people have come out among the human race!
Once the advantage of time precipitation is lost, the advantage of the Night Nation against other places will be limited. And Rod can obviously do this, Ireen knows that he has a kind of death and everyone dies together, I don't feel good, you don't have a good time. Even if you are picked up by a third party in the back, it is better than facing failure. In this case, Rhodes would definitely do such a detrimental thing.
It was because Irene knew how dangerous Rhodes was to the Night Nation that she was so worried and took her responsibilities so seriously. But on the other hand, Ireen was worried that Rhodes would try to open his mouth in vain, and if he just extorted some "mental damage money" or something, Irene's side didn't have any opinion. It's terrible, I'm afraid that Rod has a big plan. For example, he asked the Night Nation to evacuate the territory of the Land of Light that he had occupied......... I'm afraid there will be no talk at all. But what's even worse is that in terms of Irene's understanding of Rod. She thinks there's a good chance that Rhodes will do it. Because now Rhodes is not afraid of going to war with the Night Nation, but in fact, Irene does not want to go to war with the Void Lord. This is like the old and new aristocrats, the old aristocrats have time, heritage, deep accumulation, and a big business. There are many people. Although the new aristocracy only has their own one-third of an acre, they are full of vitality, although the number is not large, and the strength is not weak. And when the conflict breaks out between the two sides, perhaps the new nobles will be crippled in the battle with the old nobles. But they are young and energetic, even if they are defeated at the worst. It's just a matter of pouting and scolding, and then turning around and building a new house, which might be a good thing for them, and they can try the new building techniques of postmodernism after tearing down the old and broken wreckage. But what about the old aristocracy? The century-old foundation was destroyed, the once thriving family became deserted, and the buildings with historical heritage were burned to ashes, leaving only a few broken bricks and tiles. There may be some people who are unwilling and some people who are dissatisfied, but can they regain the glory of the old aristocracy?
No one can know the Tao.
The so-called barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, Irene may not know this sentence, but the meaning is still the same. Now there is a conflict with the Void Leader, and whether you win or lose, it is the Night Nation that suffers. And considering the strength of Rod and his men——— it is difficult to say whether they will win or not.
Now Irene really doesn't have a good way to deal with this, so she really can't do it, so she has to pay herself. Irene also thought about this, and her brother originally sent her here for this purpose. Now if this matter is solved so simply, then it will naturally be a good thing for Irene, she doesn't feel that there is any grievance in sacrificing herself, anyway, in the Night Country for so many years, Ireen has not seen a few normal men, and Rod is interesting enough, if she is with him, there is nothing that Irene herself can't accept in her heart. And if the conflict between the two sides can be calmed down because of this, then it will kill two birds with one stone for Irene.
It's just that how to lose yourself is also a technical job. As a princess, Irene is still reserved, and she is not one of those desperate aristocratic ladies, so she has nothing else to do except obediently warm the bedside bed. If Irene's means were really limited to this extent, then there would be no need to negotiate this time. So before coming to the meeting room and meeting Rod, Irene was also preparing and preparing, and after confirming that everything was ready, she began to wait for Rod's arrival.
"Please wait here for a moment, Your Highness Irene."
"It's good."
Facing Marlene's hospitality, Irene smiled and nodded, and didn't say anything more. Soon, however, she noticed that Marlene was looking at her, as if she was about to say something. But before Irene could ask, Marlene had already spoken.
"This ......... Your Highness Irene, there is something I need to explain to you in advance, for some reason, it is not His Majesty Rhodes who is negotiating with you this time. ”
"Huh? So, will you come and talk to me, Miss Marlene? ”
Hearing this, Irene was stunned for a moment, she couldn't help frowning, and looked at Marlene with some doubts. Before she arrived, she clearly mentioned to Marlene what she was here for, and because of this, she needed to talk to Rhodes in detail. Otherwise, Irene only needs to talk to Marlene. But now, Miss Marlene actually said that it was not Rhodes who was talking to her this time? What does that mean? Could it be that His Majesty Rhodes wants to give himself a dismount?
Soon, though, Marlene shook her head and dismissed Irene's idea.
"It's not me, Your Highness Irene. However, you don't have to worry, the result of this negotiation is fully representative of His Majesty Rod's own intentions........."
With that, Marlene bowed to Her Royal Highness the Moon Princess, and then turned to leave. Irene was left looking in the direction Marlene had left in confusion, not understanding what she meant. During her time in Grantia, Ireen was still very clear about the political structure of the Void Lord, and the entire Void Realm Rhodes was the largest, and then Marlene, in some matters, Marlene could indeed represent Rhodes with full powers. But other than that, Ireen couldn't think of anyone with this qualification, and when I heard Marlene say this just now, Ireen thought that it would be Marlene who negotiated with her on behalf of Rod, but ......... Now what's going on?
It's not Marlene, is there anyone else?
However, Irene didn't wonder for long, because soon, she got the answer.
There was a slight sound of footsteps, Irene turned her head, I don't know what Lu Dao was doing, maybe it was a woman's intuition, she felt as if something was not quite right, it seemed that something was beyond her expectations, but for a while, Irene didn't know what Lu Dao was, so she just changed her posture to make sure that she could maintain a calm attitude to face everything in front of her. At that moment, the footsteps came closer and closer, and then stopped outside the door of the parlor.
The door slowly opened, and then, a slender, slender figure appeared in front of Irene.
And seeing this figure, the Moon Princess's eyes widened in surprise, she even lost her mind for a moment, and couldn't help but stand up, stunned to see that figure walk in front of her so slowly and easily. Who is she? Irene looked at the girl in front of her in surprise, and at first glance she thought it was Rod's sister, Miss Christie, because the two looked exactly the same. However, Irene soon reversed her thoughts, because the girl in front of her was older than Christie, and her body was filled with an incomparably powerful coercion, which was completely different from Rhodes and her brother, and even more powerful. In her reluctance, Irene even felt a rare feeling of uneasiness and uneasiness, which was really a difficult thing to imagine for Irene, who had a gentle temperament and thought a little free and loose. But soon, Irene still took a secret breath to regain her previous composure, she blinked, and looked curiously at the girl in front of her.
Then, when Irene saw the man just like that, she looked at her with a soft smile and spoke.
"You are the Moon Princess of the Night Dragon Kingdom, Your Highness Irene? Hello, ............... first meeting" (to be continued......)
