Chapter 1289: Destruction (1)
"Tell me, why did the Adult Rat Clan, who have taken refuge in the Empire, appear in our Veil Clan's stationing point? Could it be that the empire plans to convince us to surrender first with a few of you? "Around the hall of the station, there are nearly thirty Veiled Ghost Clans floating around, and it looks like it makes people's scalps tingle.
After entering the hall, the rat clan was almost terrified. But thinking of the mission they were shouldering, and thinking of their relatives within the empire, they still forced themselves to calm down and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you should also know that we adult rat clans just want to survive. ”
Seeing that the Veil Clan did not refute, the leading adult rat continued: "We were already beaten as an inferior race 10,000 years ago, and we have survived on the border for so many years. Although he didn't do anything in between, he didn't do anything to be sorry for the people. ”
"But in the blink of an eye, the border races from above are about to give up, and even because of the imperial land solicitation intentions, what can we do? I'm sure you received the order to strangle us in the first place, right? There are even adults who have been to no man's land and killed other races. ”
"Yes, we have received favors from the Empire, we have bought food and clothing from the Empire, but so what? We're going to live! Is it we willing to accept the Empire? It is the people above who persecute us, so that we do not have the right and space to live in the territory, and if we do not trade with the empire, will we wait for death? ”
"Now that the Great War has begun, our race has become the target again. But if the elders have any trust in us, don't be so anxious to do anything to us, we are willing to fight as a member of all races. But what is the truth? We have taken refuge in the Empire, just to survive! ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are here today only as a messenger of information, without any thoughts of our own. Of course, the Empire does not want to rely on us to convince you that we are here in the world just because we are all races and will not be killed before we appear. ”
"I'll let the humans tell you the rest of the matter." As he spoke, the rat clan took out a communication terminal from his arms, placed the terminal in the center of the hall, and turned on the switch on the terminal. A blue glow lit up on the terminal, followed by a "salala" sound.
The Veiled Ghost Clan was shocked, and all the surrounding Veiled Ghost Clan high-ranking people took a step back, shocked. They didn't know if it was a simple communicator or a weapon that the rats had come to send to them. If it were a weapon, none of these high-level people would be able to escape.
The ghost clans in the hall were all above the masters, and their strength ranged from the level of the grandmaster, and they were all shocked, but they were not completely panicked. They all looked at the top Realm Realm Master Elder who was sitting at the top of their hands at the same time, guarding this stronghold.
The voice in the communicator quickly faded away, and then a blue light was projected, forming a three-dimensional projection of the bust, which was Guan Jue. He smiled and said, "Everyone, don't be impatient, don't be impatient. We've just come up with a way to have a conversation with you, and now that we've come to this point, aren't we going to hear what we have to say? ”
The Elder of the Veil Ghost Clan pondered for a moment, looked at Guan Jue's image and said, "Humans, don't say it's a time of war, even before the war begins, we and the Veil Clan don't bother to talk to humans. Human beings are insidious, cunning, unscrupulous, capricious, and I will never believe what you say! ”
Guan Jue didn't refute, but agreed, and said, "This elder, what you said is very right. Human beings are insidious, cunning, unscrupulous, and capricious. Even I admit that I myself am more insidious, more cunning, and more difficult to deal with than other humans. But if you say it was before the war, none of this is wrong. On the contrary, it is precisely because we are in times of war that we have a basis for dialogue. ”
The Veil Ghost Clan looked at Guan Jue and felt that this person seemed to be a little interesting: "Oh? That's what got me interested. The two armies are facing each other and fighting each other, either you die or I die, and the war brings only killing and more hatred, what is the basis for dialogue between you and me? ”
Guan Jue smiled: "Indeed, war brings only more hatred. But don't you think, Elder, that the more hatred arises, the more important it is for all leaders to remain absolutely calm? Is it like the current western race, which only thinks about preserving its own interests all day long, and abandons the right path? ”
Hearing him say this, the curtain on the Ghost Clan Elder's body couldn't help but become even more gloomy, and the fluttering amplitude was even greater. After thinking for a moment, it scoffed, "Indeed, the practices of the Western Race make me look down on them!" But so what? Whether we choose the right path or not is none of your business! ”
"No, no, no!" Guan Jue shook his head: "Elder, what I want to tell you today is exactly the right path that is related to you and me. Let's not talk about whether we can talk normally, is it possible that the elders still can't see the current situation? Do you really want to be used up like a shield by the western race and thrown away? ”
"Humph! I, the Veiled Ghost Clan, have never been shields. ”
"Alright, Elder, let's take a look at the ghost of the West Mountain! How brave and good was the ghost of Xishan back then? Haven't you been used up and thrown away? No one remembers how much it took, but wanted revenge but was blocked and suppressed in the north. Look at the rat races again? Before the war, it was used to steal imperial intelligence, and the backhand was a traitor's hat. ”
The surrounding Veil Ghost Clan began to stir when they heard this, it was really because what Guan Jue said was not wrong at all. All races are such a place, and only when there is use value, can they have the right to live. When you have no use value, you will be discarded immediately, saving you from becoming a weakness in the future.
The elder asked, "What does that have to do with you humans?" I'm afraid you're all happy already, aren't you? Isn't this the style of your human race that you are beginning to divide and divide the east and west, and you can completely divide them and win the whole war? ”
"Elder, you're wrong again." Guan Jue said: "We humans are indeed good at using strategy and tactics and using some means to achieve greater results. But you haven't seen the essence of the matter, why should we choose such means? Why don't you push head-on, but choose to break them one by one? ”
"Why?" One of the Veiled Ghost Clan asked.
"Because we want to use the shortest time, pay the least cost, and achieve the greatest results. Human strategy has always been designed for this, including this one. What if I said that we had found a way that would save time and effort than smashing the eastern races one by one, but still achieve enough results? ”
"Sure enough, are you here to recruit an today?" On the contrary, the elders of the Veil Clan were much calmer.
"No, today we are here to seek cooperation. Cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win results. Guan Jue said.
A master of the Veil Ghost Clan sneered: "Cooperation? Us and you? Don't be funny! Can cooperation with you be profound? Maybe he'll be labeled a traitor! Humans, no matter what you are planning behind your back, we will never believe it! Humans and all races cooperate? Scold! ”
"What's not to do? Huang Wuyi once went to the empire to seek cooperation in times of war. ”
"Then why don't you cooperate with the Lord and the faction?" The Veiled Ghost asked rhetorically.
Guan Jue smiled: "Naturally, because the benefits paid and obtained are not equal, Huang Wuyi wants to pay the minimum price and get more benefits, fundamentally speaking, it is the same as us." But the efforts and demands of both parties were not equal, so the cooperation failed. But this is different, and we are both already in the middle of a war, no longer just talking about it before the war began, and cooperation has become more practical. ”
"We don't have anything to ask for humans, and we don't have anything to give you!" Another master of the Veil Clan said loudly: "Arrest these adult rat clans!" Traitor! I have to form the consciousness of being killed, I don't care what two armies are fighting, I don't kill them! ”
As he spoke, the surrounding Veil Clan was about to step forward and make a move, and the five adult rat clans were so frightened that they sat on the ground.
Guan Jue hurriedly said: "Wait! Ladies and gentlemen, as I have already said, it is precisely because of the beginning of the war that we have the basis for dialogue. Especially now, now the battle between the eastern race and us, the western race and the Hong race are watching the excitement in the rear, don't you think that the distance between you and us is closer? ”
A wave of fluctuation spread out from the Elder of the Veil Clan, stopping the people who wanted to make a move. Seeing this, the few Veiled Ghost Clans were all anxious: "Elder! The words of humanity cannot be believed! He just wants to bewitch us and divide the races, and maybe eventually annex us! ”
Guan Jue looked at the elder of the Veil Clan and said, "This doesn't make sense, I don't deny that I want to split you and the Western Race. But if you think about it, if it weren't for the Western Race that had done something excessive, if it weren't for the fact that you had already split with them in your hearts, would it be useful for me to say anything? As for annexation, it's even more nonsense, you can ask any race that has taken refuge in the Empire, and now they have food and drink in the Empire. As long as you rely on your own strength to work, you can retain your dignity and rely on your own strength to eat. Even the empire has formulated a policy of alien protection to ensure that they can be independent of the human race, which is also called annexation, so the meaning of the word annexation is also wonderful, right? ”
Seeing that the surrounding Veil Clan was gradually beginning to riot, the elders of the Veiled Ghost Clan were a little suspicious and yearning for the life that Guan Jue was talking about, and immediately interrupted and said, "Human, tell me the purpose of your coming today!" ”
The smile on Guan Jue's face was like a poisonous snake spitting out a snake letter: "The purpose of our dialogue today is nothing more than to obtain peace and development within a limited time. You don't want to be squeezed out and manipulated by the western races to fight, and we don't want to fight hard with those of you who have already made the decision to die, and our interests are exactly the same. ”
"Exactly?" One of the Veiled Ghost Clan questioned: "You want to encroach on the territory of the Ten Thousand Races, our territory is close at hand, where are our interests the same?" ”
"The similarity lies in the fact that the empire does not want to encroach on the territory of all races at all!"
"Huh! Myths confuse the public! Unintelligible! The Veiled Ghost clan scoffed.
Guan Jue was not angry, but looked at the elder and said, "The thinking of the ten thousand races is too simple, this is the difference between us. You have ancestral lands, but humans do not. The interior of the empire is absolutely free, and people can live anywhere, not just in one place. ”
"So, human beings are hypocritical! It's weak! It's a race without heels! ”
Guan Jue said: "I don't know where the human heel is. But what I do know is that the ancestral land of mankind is long gone. We find the remains of the first appearance of man, right on the edge of no man's land. It was the Ten Thousand Races that destroyed the ancestral land of mankind back then, otherwise humanity would not have become what it is today. ”
"Are you still going to be held accountable here?"
"Actually, what I mean is that maybe it's thanks to what the people did back then that they are now. If you ask an imperial person, what is an empire and what is his ancestral land? I think everyone will tell you that as long as there is peace and stability, where mankind can live and work in peace, it is the Empire! This scope is not limited to one city, one mountain, one country. Even if the current empire collapses and we are forced to live on the East China Sea, then the East China Sea will still be our empire! ”
The surrounding Veil Clan was a little moved when they heard this.
Guan Jue continued: "Yes, human beings are a race without heels, so we chose to establish our own living space, isn't this also forced to be helpless? We have never cared about the gains and losses of one city or one place, all we want is ultimate stability. ”
"Therefore, the argument that he just said that he wants to encroach on your territory should not be brought up again. Even if we occupy your ancestral land now, what's the use? Sooner or later, you'll come back and give more lives to protect this place? I'm sorry, this is not our ancestral land, we will not defend it, but you need to stay in this place. ”
"Indeed, as we continue to win, we will surely advance the battle line, and perhaps one day include your ancestral lands within the confines of the Empire. But the premise is that we win the battlefield, and this victory is not because we defeat the Veil Clan and seize your territory. It was we who defeated all the enemies of this land and forced you to retreat, and we took the place you had abandoned. ”
"Even if we rebelled against you, defeated you, and pitted you according to what you said, even if the Veil Ghost Clan died, would we really be able to occupy this place? What you care about is the ancestral land, and what the other races care about is also the ancestral land. Having defeated you but not all the races, and in the future we will occupy this place, and we will still face fierce resistance from all races. ”
"Why? Because once we take your territory, the other races behind you will be in the same situation as you are, will they be willing to let us advance into the front? No, it won't! Especially the western races, who have taken advantage of you, and will eventually occupy your ancestral lands. ”
"That's enough......" The more the elder of the Veil Clan listened, the more frightened he became, if he continued, maybe these masters of the Veil Clan would really be split, it interrupted and said, "I admit, what you said is not wrong. Now that the situation of the Veil Clan is indeed like this, then, what can we and humans cooperate with? ”
Hearing this, the other Veil Ghost Clans were shocked: "Elder! ”
"Elder! Don't listen to his demagoguery! There is absolutely no way we can cooperate with humans! Humanity simply can't believe it, and now is a time of great tension! ”
"Yes, Elder! If this is known to the Presbyterian Church, how should we deal with it? What should we do in the face of presbyterian accountability in the future? What's more, humans have always been cunning, they must have dug a pit waiting for us to jump in! When the time comes, we won't need them to attack, and we'll be targeted by the Council of Elders!" ”
The elders of the Veil Clan were also hesitant.
Guan Jue suddenly laughed out loud and said, "Everyone, do you really think that the Elder Council will be able to be your backing? The Presbyterian Church is nothing more than an organization that seeks selfish interests! Look at what the Council of Elders has done, and will they help you in your war with humanity? Or will it exonerate you when you are defeated? Or do you really think that when the war actually starts, you can defeat humanity? ”
"You're threatening us?" The Veiled Ghost asked.
Guan Jue looked at the Veiled Ghost Clan and said, "Yes, I am just threatening you. I am here today because of the strength of the Empire, the victory of Rokuzan, and the absolute suppression of Shaozun. Are you not convinced? I'm sorry, but no one is there to support you, and the Council of Elders is even less likely! As I said, the goal of mankind is to pay the least price and obtain the highest results, if you give up cooperation, then the choice of cooperation is no longer the best option, and in the end there is only one option, a frontal war, and the Empire is confident that it will annihilate you all! Remember, it's all annihilation! ”
The surrounding Veil Clan was furious, but there was a creepy feeling. They all knew that what Guan Jue said was right, the empire really had such strength. The Council of Elders has decided to give up the eastern races for the time being, and they will never fight to the death with the Empire at this time, and when the time comes, their fate will ......
As a result, all of these Veiled Ghost Clans fell silent.
Guan Jue looked at them and said, "Since we are here to seek cooperation today, we are naturally sincere. Otherwise, with our strength, we will never think of this direction of cooperation. What do you think? Are you interested in hearing it now? ”
The Ghost Clan Elder glanced around the hall and nodded, "Tell me about it!" ”
