Section 756 Human Affection
Above the clouds, an old and a young stand opposite each other.
At their feet was a semi-transparent disc, with countless golden Sanskrit words flowing, retrograde to each other, layered on top of each other.
Chen Xing lowered his head and looked at the Sanskrit text flowing under his feet. This was the first time he had seen the legendary "Golden Compass" up close, and he was very curious.
"Commander Chen......" Ramsden's voice pulled Chen Xing back to reality.
"I've been doing well lately, but is there still any discomfort with the abyss brand?" Ramsden asked with concern.
"Okay." Chen Xing nodded and replied, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart, because the other party was obviously reminding him, "I helped you last time, do you remember?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay......" Ramsden repeated, and then, as if remembering something, he smiled kindly and said, "I remember that you are a disciple of Buddha Yongqi, and you can come back to the academy and walk around more when you have time......
"Next time I come back, I'll go to my dean's tower for tea, what do you think?" Ramsden threw an olive branch.
"The dean has a lot of opportunities, time is precious, and students don't dare to disturb at will." Chen Xing said that he would never be bribed by a bowl of tea.
"Classmate Chen, you must help me with this matter today!" If you can't hint at it, just come directly. As the guardian of the world, Ramsden has always been very efficient, never dragging his feet and getting straight to the point.
"This ......," Chen Xing scratched his head vigorously. "Commander Chen" has become "classmate Chen", which is to use nepotism to pressure him.
But no matter how you say it, he has also received favors from others, and it is impossible to be ungrateful, so he immediately clasped his fists and saluted, and said solemnly, "As long as the dean is in need, the students will do their best, but ......" He paused, "The students are soft-spoken, I don't know what can help the dean?" ”
"Well......" Seeing Chen Xing's good attitude, Ramsden nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Today's matter, let's talk about the matter." ”
"The Principality of Silverclaw unilaterally sabotaged the Glorious Decisive Battle is indeed a serious mistake."
"However, it is a bit too much to do something wrong and lead to a catastrophe."
"Sentencing and sentencing is the embodiment of legal civilization, just like a person who steals an apple will not be hanged to death."
"The Principality of Silverclaw, after all, is a small and medium-sized country with a population of more than 30 million. If the whole collapse is caused by the mistakes of a few people, it is really against the principle of fairness. ”
"The original intention of the declaration of kings is to treat everyone as fairly as possible in the case of the huge disparity in individual strength."
"The existence of supreme force will not cause ordinary people to lose their social value."
"If the Principality of Silverclaw makes a mistake, let them accept the punishment and pay the corresponding price. This price can be several times or even more than ten times the mistake, but it is not a direct death sentence regardless of all objective reasons. ”
"Did you say yes, Mr. Chen?" Ramsden looked at Chen Xing and asked.
"This, the truth is this truth......" Chen Xing's answer was a bit perfunctory, because Ramsden said it was reasonable and well-founded, and he could not refute it, but his position did not allow him to agree with the other party's point of view.
Obviously, Alia wants to use this matter to bypass the King's Declaration and directly use her supreme force to conquer the Silverclaw Principality, and he can also reduce the casualties of his subordinates and avoid a vicious battle.
"Four years ago, the demon princess was promoted to the heavenly throne, and in order to avenge her mother, she burned Raven City with a single thought, causing more than 100,000 direct deaths and millions of people being displaced......"
"If you are truly good for your Lord, you should persuade her to self-denial and rebuild her image as a benevolent monarch." Ramsden said.
"What you say makes sense, but you see me ......" Chen Xing pointed to himself and said helplessly, "I'm just a small soldier under her, what else?" ”
"No, you can convince her!" Ramsden said with certainty, then paused, "Perhaps, you are the only person in this world who can convince her." ”
"It's really fake, how I don't know it myself." Chen Xing's face was full of disbelief. though
He was the owner of the "Fire Demon One Blood", but he was not arrogant enough to think that he could control a supreme powerhouse because of this.
"I've seen a lot of people, a lot of things, and I still have the eye to see people." "I don't know exactly how you relate, but I can feel from the way she looks at you that you're a special presence to her, unlike anyone else around her. ”
Ramsden stretched out his hand and gently pressed Chen Xing's shoulder, "As long as you can convince Arya to give up attacking Silverclaw, even if I owe you a favor." ”
"Ahh Chen Xing was taken aback, and then hesitated.
A favor from the Guardian of the World, I have to say, is very tempting.
If one day, he wants to build a country as a mercenary, and he can get Ramsden's support, the percentage will definitely be more than doubled.
Of course, this premise is not to offend Alia. Because Alia is his real backer, and the others are just helpers, not core supports. He saw this very clearly.
But it is also true that as Ramsden said, the most important thing for Alia now is to reshape the image of Renjun and downplay the impact of the Raven City fire. If she adds more sins, she will only be a tyrant that everyone fears in the future, and it will be difficult to rule for a long time.
How many tyrants have been able to die well throughout the ages?
The answer is no.
People can carry boats or capsize boats.
No matter how powerful Alia is, she is also flesh and blood, not immortal. She also had to eat, drink, and sleep, and if the people betrayed her, the Assassins would have an opportunity.
What is a king?
If the people want to be one, they will be kings.
But will he really be able to convince Aria?
He was hesitating when Ramsden suddenly said, "Don't think about it anymore......
"You've managed to convince her."
"What!" Chen Xing was stunned.
"See for yourself."
Ramsden waved his staff, and the golden compass lowered the clouds.
Looking around, it was empty.
The Legion of Destruction, which was originally black and overwhelming, surrounded the Silver Eagle Leader, has all disappeared.
Alia and Lacey weren't in their original positions either, and seemed to have been gone for a while.
Chen Xing hurriedly dialed the voice communication, "You, why did you leave?" ”
"Didn't that old man talk to you for so long just to convince me to leave? A sucker! Alia scolded.
"Ah......" Chen Xing was a little speechless. I have mixed tastes in my heart, and I can't tell what it tastes like.
The voice over there suddenly became soft and soft, "You are my general, I believe in you." ”
The watery tenderness for a moment made Chen Xing feel that his whole person was about to melt. It was an indescribable joy, as if a long-term effort had finally been recognized and rewarded. He couldn't help the feeling in his heart and said, "I really want to kiss you now." ”
"Hehe~" There was a silver bell-like laugh over there, and then he lowered his voice and said with a bit of threat, "Now I'm really getting bolder and bigger~"
"I've always been gutsy, okay?" Chen Xing said.
"Okay......" The other side seemed to sigh, and then changed to a lazy tone, "Hit the silver claw, and I'll give you a reward when I come back." ”
"What reward?" Chen Xing asked.
"Why should I tell you, huh!" There was a coquettish sentence over there, and hung up the communication with a snap.
Looking at the gradually fading screen, recalling the girl's coquettish words, he was a little stunned for a while.
"Classmate Chen, Commander Chen......"
Ramsden screamed several times in a row before Chen Xing came back to his senses.
He suddenly felt like he was suddenly out of this world, as if everything around him was familiar and strange.
"In this case, you put forward a condition, and I will communicate with Silverclaw." Ramsden said.
Chen Xing thought for a moment and asked, "Why is there only one condition?" ”
"Because they only made one mistake." Ramsden replied.
Chen Xing thought about it again and asked, "Can I put forward any conditions?" ”
"Yes, but only if they can do it." Ramsden replied.
"I want them to surrender." Chen Xing said.
Ramsden's gray beard shook a little, "What's the difference between this and just now?" In order to prevent Chen Xing from making indiscriminate demands, he prompted, "You can ask for monetary compensation, material compensation, territorial compensation, or put forward a favorable condition for the next glorious decisive battle, such as restricting certain behaviors of them, restricting certain equipment or personnel from participating in the battle, and other favorable conditions for you." ”
"You just said that certain personnel were restricted from participating in the war?" Chen Xing grasped the point.
Ramsden nodded.
"Okay, I see." Chen Xing took a deep breath and said, "The condition I proposed is ......"
He shouted, "Wei Tianyu, don't participate in the war!" ”
Excluding a small king-level opponent from the glorious decisive battle was the biggest benefit he could think of.
At that time, Duke Zilan will be on the battlefield, and with the current strength of Silver Claw, this battle will be nine out of ten. Although it is possible that the other party will invite the lords of Chiyan, Hanling, and Black Spear to come to help in the war, the premise is that they are not afraid that their country will be attacked.
Because the Red Dragon and Black Feather armies are pressing the border, if the lord of the country runs out to participate in the decisive battle of other countries, they will definitely launch a full-scale attack.
The three principalities of Chiyan, Hanling, and Black Spear combined, the territory and population are not as good as the two principalities of Red Dragon and Black Feather, because the Red Dragon Principality is the largest principality north of the Ambergris River, with the largest territorial area, occupying most of the northern wilderness, and the monitor lizard city is known as the third imperial capital, with a total population of nearly 80 million, which is equivalent to two and a half silverclaw principalities.
Ramsden came back after communicating for a while, telling Chen Xing that the other party had agreed to the condition.
Chen Xing couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart, how could the other party agree so easily? Wei Tianyu's inability to participate in the war meant that they would definitely be defeated.
Compared with the first and second armies of Silver Claw, the city defenders of the Silver Eagle Leader are not on the same level in terms of equipment and personnel quality. Encountering an expeditionary force is tantamount to an egg hitting a stone.
Qin Wu fled, Wei Haitang was disabled, the ghost attendant of the national teacher Li Zhi was not good at frontal combat, and there was no particularly powerful one in the rest of the lord level, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Seems a bit quirky......
But the words have been spoken, and they can't go back on it, even if it's a loss, they have to admit it.
"Mr. Chen, once again, thank you heartily for your cooperation." Ramsden bowed slightly at Chen Xing.
"You owe Wei Tianyu a favor?" Chen Xing suddenly asked. At the risk of being accused of stealing and breaking the rules of the world, the other party came to mediate the contradictions of a small and medium-sized principality, obviously for some last resort.
Ramsden paused for a moment, then smiled, "You're such a smart boy. ”
Chen Xing couldn't help but sigh a little, this world guardian is really a good man, in order to repay a favor, he owes another favor.
It's a free volunteer, but it's embarrassing to owe people everywhere.
"My favor, you have already repaid." Chen Xing announced.
Ramsden was stunned again.
"You justify my brother Tieno, this is your favor."
After speaking, Chen Xing summoned the goblin fighter and left.
He needs Ramsden's favor, but he also needs to face his inner pride. He was Tieno's brother, a young man recognized by Shad Sinclair, and they were certainly not willing to take advantage of such a small advantage.
Looking at the distant back, Ramsden couldn't help but touch his gray beard and gradually smiled.
