Su Mu and Maggie, who had left from the Cuiyu Hall, were walking side by side on the palace road leaving the royal city at this moment.

Under Maggie's strong protection, the Peacock Royal Family finally acquiesced to the arrangement in Su Mu's mouth, and did not raise any objections to the behavior of the federal generals to garrison the border.

And at this moment, those attendants in the royal city have been indifferently dismissed by Su Mu and Maggie, and they don't dare to follow behind these two proud sons of the sky.

They can only carry Qi lanterns from a distance, and they can provide light from dozens of meters away.

Although regarding the balance between the three kingdoms, it is true that as Su Mu said just now, the federal side does not dare to break it at will.

But as Maggie and Su Mu left the Cuiyu Hall and left the Peacock Monarch who didn't know more secrets, the deeper worries that were really hidden in the hearts of the two of them were finally clearly revealed.

"If you don't want to start a war, no one will upset the balance. But if one of the oldest nations craves war in the first place, it seems that it is only a matter of time before the balance is broken. ”

Maggie silently looked at the blood moon in the sky, as if she had seen some cruel future through the moonlight.

Then the conversation changed, and instead talked about the root of the alliance between Bastion and Su Mu:

"It seems that the reason why you were able to escape from the Ancestral Dragon Temple is also the shadow of the Dark Bard. But even so, you still have to make yourself aware that the Dark Bard is a turbulent current that must disappear after all. ”

"And even the Empire has the same attitude as us in this matter, so we must deal with the Dark Bards before the Empire really shows its edge. ”

At this point, Su Mu and Maggie finally stepped out of the gate of the royal city.

Two Qi-powered limousines parked side by side were already waiting for the arrival of these two noble young men.

"Now that the Papal States have been paid enough, I am afraid that we will be leaving here in the next few days. The next time we meet, I'm afraid it will already be next summer's trip to explore the abyss. ”

"I hope that at that time, you didn't really forget our agreement. After all, the price of the matter about the Ancestral Dragon Temple...... We've paid more than we thought we'd like!"

......

The departure of the Papal States turned out to be more rapid than Su Mu expected.

Only on the second day, after the letter of state was concluded, Maggie had already left with everyone in the Shenji Camp, leaving only a message of "don't forget the agreement" to Su Mu, and disappeared directly under the cover of the trade alliance.

Compared to the Papal States, which were able to use trade covenants to collect gold coins, the arrangements and discussions to be made on the federal side were naturally much more complicated and cumbersome.

Although the general course has long been set, the Mauryan Nation has fully accepted the requirements of the Federal garrison on the border.

But as for how to garrison the army, how not to cause unnecessary panic in the kingdom, and even how much help the Federation needs to form for the Central Army that the Peacock State itself needs to form.

All of this is an issue that needs to be discussed in detail by both sides.

So one by one, news continued to flow back from the negotiation table to Adrian and the Peacock royal family, and the two sides kept adjusting their plans through daily consultations with each other.

I have to admit that in this kind of nuanced policy decision, Su Mu is naturally a hundred times younger and immature than someone like Adrian.

The reason why Adrian wanted to come to the kingdom in person was naturally because he was not worried about Su Mu's ability in this regard.

Fortunately, Adrian not only did not have any dissatisfaction with this, but also made a special trip to Su Mu to express his ...... Even Wyatt, the current Speaker of the Federal Assembly, also relies on Adrian to administer.

What really matters to an Archon has always been an unparalleled view of the big picture. As for the small and cumbersome things under the overall situation, they should have been carried out by more professional people.

Therefore, under Adrian's arrangement, Su Mu, who is obviously the nominal top decision-maker on the federal side, actually can't participate in the decision-making at all.

It's just that I follow Adrian every day, observing and learning Adrian's thinking, and thinking about the meaning behind Adrian's every move.

......

After another whole week, even the troops stationed on the federal agreement have successfully reached the border between the two countries and quietly stationed, and the official credentials of the two countries have been successfully signed.

After a grand banquet of the guests of honor, the federal mission led by Hubert also directly settled in the buildings where the sacrificial meeting was once held, and successfully gained a firm foothold in the Peacock King Capital.

However, all of this is no longer important in Su Mu's eyes.

Since the beginning of this winter, Su Mu has left the Science Federation with the academy mission, and now that the winter is coming to an end, Su Mu has finally seen the real return date.

"You've really decided?"

On the morning when he left the Peacock King Capital, Su Mu looked at the man in front of him in the faint morning light, and couldn't help but make a final confirmation.

When the credentials were concluded, it was clear that the Mauryan Kingdom had become a de facto vassal state of the Federation.

Therefore, on the side of the royal family, it is natural to send off Su Mu and the others with the highest etiquette, and even the expensive Qi-powered limousines are neatly lined up with more than a dozen vehicles outside the royal capital.

But at this time, Su Mu undoubtedly did not immediately board the limousine led by it. Instead, in the early sun, looking at a man who decided to stay, he once again asked the question just now.

The man in front of Su Mu was naturally Qin Wushu, who had just been taken under Su Mu's command.

And in the face of Su Mu's last question, Qin Wudi's answer was also extremely neat, and even neat and tidy was mixed with a certain sincere determination:

"I used to be just a sword, and even if you gave me the possibility to be reborn, the most valuable part of me was still about violence and force. ”

"So instead of returning to a stable federation with you, I will actually help you pacify all parties in the Peacock Nation, and this is where I can play my role to the fullest. ”

When Qin Wudi said this, he looked at Qin Wuxian who was standing behind Su Tong even more lightly.

Then he laughed at himself slightly, and continued to express:

"Besides, unlike my sister-in-law, after all, I am a person who has been wanted by the Empire, and if I really enter the Federation with you, I am afraid it will still cause you some unnecessary trouble. ”

"As for how I should finally stand behind you, this is naturally something you should consider. But before that, I can at least give you more resources. ”

After Qin Wushu finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Su Mu's eyes full of emotion.

He had already neatly put on the heavy sword Frost Destroy, and walked directly to Hubert, who was temporarily in charge of the affairs of the royal capital, expressing his determination with his actions.

And for everything that happened in front of him, Su Mu still did not hesitate after all, he had already taken a deep look at the sky outside the royal capital, and then led Su Tong and the others to board the limousine.

Just as he turned to leave, Su Mu also whispered to Qin Wupian and assured:

"That day will not be too far away, whether it is you or your brother, you will stand in the sun in dignity after all...... Let the whole continent know who you are!"
