Hearing Emile Owen's suggestion, Paul Gibson stopped, he turned around, looked at Emile Owen coldly, and looked at him for a full minute before asking in a cold tone.

"What? Think I'm going to lose, so I'll pay the capital first? ”

"Your Majesty is angry!"

Emil Owen knew Paul well, and he realized that Paul was completely angry because of what he had just suggested. Although he was the prime minister, Emile Owen was still frightened by Paul's rhetorical question. Paul Gibson looked at the emir who bowed his head and snorted.

"Aren't they negotiating with Elena before the end of the day? Look at the results of their negotiations, and we'll talk about it. ”

————————————

Paul Gibson's so-called negotiations were actually made by the emissaries of the Negro Republic, the Third Republic, the Alonte Empire, and the Ankenrein Empire in the course of Elena's negotiations with Elena. I don't know who it is, but after discovering that everyone came to Elena for similar reasons, they ran for each other, hoping to form a joint force in regulating and restraining Gastens. And this suggestion, once put forward, was quickly recognized by everyone. In front of a person who may be the last great mage in this world, the previous contradictions of other mortal nations have quietly stood back, making way for the main contradiction between the mages and this world.

When Missy Booker, the ambassador of the Republic of Negro, pushed open an ordinary wooden door in the embassy district of Moon, Darcy Field, the foreign minister of Ankenrein, was already standing respectfully waiting for him. And in this spacious conference room, in addition to Darcy Field, there is also a big man known to Missy Booker, who is also waiting for his arrival.

Fern Third Republic Foreign Minister Bluward Skodario.

"Two, long waiting. It's a waste of time to make sure no one is watching, and hopefully you don't have to wait too long. ”

Missy Booker bowed. Unlike the two professional foreign ministers in front of him, his current status is only the director of the National Library of the Neglo Republic, and if he does not consider that he has been the foreign minister of the Neglo Republic, how can these two in front of him invite him to participate in this secret meeting.

"It's okay, it's their ears all over here, be careful," said Ankenrein Foreign Secretary Darcy Field, as he politely led Missy Booker to sit down at the long table in the middle of the room, and brought him a cup of tea.

"Without a servant, you have to do everything yourself. I poured this cup of tea, so let's make do with it. ”

"Brother Fairs is modest, his tea ceremony is also famous in our third Republic of Fern, you are blessed, Curator Booker."

Fern Third Republic's Foreign Secretary, Bluward Scowdario, sat across from the two of them, struggling next to him. Missy Booker looked at the two of them, thanked Filth with a salute, and took a sip of the tea in the cup in front of him. He closed his eyes slightly, letting the liquid linger in his mouth, and swallowed slowly, letting out a soft exclamation.

"Good tea!"

"If you like it!" , Ankenrein Imperial Foreign Minister Darcy Fairs sat down next to Missy Booker and got straight to the point.

"Now that the showdown is approaching, the relationship between the three of us and Elena is not particularly good, and it is more or less possible that we will be targeted by that person. It's not easy to have the opportunity to sit down and talk. I don't go around in circles, our initial idea was to hope that the one would give us three promises. ”

"Please."

Missy Booker stretched out her hand to salute with a serious expression. Blueward Skodario, who was sitting across from the two, also nodded, waiting for Darcy Filth's conditions.

"First, unless any of our five nations first infringes on Elena's interests, that one must not intervene with supernatural power."

Darcy Fields repeated the phrase three times in Rein, Neglo, and Fern to make sure both negotiators could understand it. Missy Booker, the ambassador of the Negro Republic, wrote down this sentence in his little notebook, thinking silently, but did not give his opinion at the first time. The Foreign Minister of the Third Republic, Fern Bruward Scowdario, thought for a moment and gave his own advice.

"We shouldn't have any problem with this one, if he is really the Great Magister, then our three kingdoms are actually lambs to the slaughter, and having this one can give us some psychological security. As for whether he will accept or actually implement it, it can only depend on his own ideas, and we actually have no constraints. ”

"We've also thought about this, and judging from his current statement, whether or not he really can only release forbidden spell magic once, as he said, he shouldn't be very interested in actively using magic for Elena's benefit. The forbidden spell he had unleashed before had been used just as Elena was about to collapse, in order to save her life rather than make a profit. Therefore, we think that the possibility of the person agreeing to this article should be quite high. ”

Although the first clause proposed by Fairs is only a short sentence, the manpower and energy involved in proposing it is quite large. All three of them have been engaged in or have been in contact with diplomatic work, so they naturally know that the terms of such agreements will effectively bind the behavior of countries once they are written, so they also understand what Darcy Filth said.

"We don't have a problem with this article, it's a self-protection clause, even if he doesn't agree, we can guess what he thinks, so as to leave a backup for the follow-up work."

The ambassador of the Republic of Negro, Missy Booker, nodded and gave his own assessment. Darcy Filth saw that everyone had no opinion on the first one, so he threw out the second one.

"Article 2 establishes a six-party parliament headed by Elena to mediate disputes and international disputes between countries, and the place of the parliamentary meeting shall be determined by Elena, and the chairman shall be appointed by Elena, and each of the other five countries shall have a vice-president in charge of the relevant business of each country. No State or party may wage a national war without the consent of the Six-Party Parliament. Violators will be listed as common enemies by the other five parties, and any measures may be taken to stop the war they are waging. ”

"This ......," Booker thought for a few seconds and nodded slightly, "this is not bad, it gives him power and restraint at the same time." In addition to limiting his supernatural powers, Elena is also to be limited to regular force. Their steam machine guns and rear-loading steam rifles are too powerful, and if we continue to let them wage war, neither we nor Filth can stand it. ”

"We can't, those weapons aren't particularly easy to copy, but Elena can make them in batches. Sometimes I have to admit that he is indeed superior in some aspects. ”

Florde Scowdario, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Third Republic, also disagreed with the second article proposed by Fairs. Now, although Elena's strength and territory are not comparable to the traditional five powers, Gastens is suspected of being a magister, but this small land, which only occupies two provinces, has the power to subvert any country. Just in case, putting Elena's possible war in the cage of the Six-Party Council is indeed a good solution.

"I just don't know if that person will say yes," Missy Booker said, "and everyone is not stupid. The intentions of our two articles are so obvious that he will not fail to see them. If he doesn't—"

"If he doesn't agree, it means that he really wants to do something to us, and when the time comes, everyone will fight or surrender, and everyone will be prepared."

Bluward Skodario answered Missy Booker's question very simply. As they said, the reason why the three parties are sitting together now is to force Elena to take a stand. If he agreed, several major countries would be somewhat relieved. If that one doesn't agree, several major nations will also have to prepare early to deal with an army of suspected archmages. In any case, this proposal is not a problem for several major countries except Elena.

"That's what I said, but it's better not to fight or not to fight, and it's not a good thing to fight."

Missy Booker, who was trying to take Elena technology through war just three months ago, said it with a stern tone and no embarrassment at all. The other two ambassadors also nodded their heads frequently, apparently genuinely agreeing.

"What is the third one?" Bruward Skodario of the Third Republic of Fern was a little curious, if the first limited that person's extraordinary power, the second limited Elena's technological superiority. So the third one, what angle does Darcy Filth plan to cut into?

"The third article is about communism", Darcy Filth does not hide his thoughts, "third, the subjects of the Six-Party Parliament have the freedom to choose their own state system and doctrine, and the subjects of the Six-Party Parliament respect the theoretical path and state system of the other subjects. Without the approval of the Six-Party Parliament, it is not allowed to export one's own state's ideology to any subject of the Six-Party Parliament. ”

"How does this six-party parliament vote, one person, one vote? Surely that one wouldn't agree, would he? The intention is too obvious", Missy Booker of the Neglo Republic frowned, the third intention to restrict Elena's export of communism was too obvious compared to the first two, and he was worried that it would lead to that plan.

"Our bottom line is to remove the last sentence and only retain the theoretical path and state system that respects other subjects. This is a mild and vague statement, but it is not easy to judge whether the behavior of each person meets the requirements. Whether it can be carried out or not depends only on the realisation of that person. As for the vote, Elena has the right of veto, but she can't force the resolution, which is also our plan. ”

Darcy Filth briefly responded to Missy Booker's question, and then looked at Brookard Scowdario, "Mr. Scottario, what do you think?" ”

Again, if he wants to solve problems with magic, or can solve problems with magic, these things are useless. If he wants to play with us on the shelf, these things will still have some use. That last sentence, let's add it first, and just look at his thoughts. ”

"Plus is definitely going to be added", Darcy Fields nodded, carefully observing the expressions of the two, "These are the core three, and in addition to these three, it is the establishment of the Six-Party Council." However, this institution is similar to the previous Legislature, which eliminated the Papal States, joined Elena, and changed its name to the Six-Party Council. If we can promote the implementation of the Six-Party Parliament and the implementation of these three core provisions, our negotiations will be considered basically successful. ”

"With these three conditions, even if he can win, it is estimated that we will have to let out some blood. There is no such thing as a free lunch, they have always wanted the market to be open, and we have to make some concessions", Missy Booker has been with Elena for almost a month, and he can see what he wants.

"If the market is open, I think the impact can actually be controlled", Bruwald Skodario continued, "We have been in contact with that Bimbo Bobruv many times during this time, and Elena's main demand is to open the market, especially the steam equipment market, not to impose high tariffs, and to protect the rights and interests of workers and serfs. Their steam equipment, apart from those guns that are good, currently has no other products. If it's just the export of iron ore and pyroxene, I don't think it's too bad for us. ”

"They gave us a new steam locomotive, called the Red Flag, which is much better than your Rand Medal. The first car is going to be auctioned at the spring Rosville auction, and you can take a look at it if you are interested. ”

"To you? Didn't you just go to war? Is that okay? Missy Booker was a little surprised, they were killed by Elena nearly 200,000 people, and now they all have pimples in their hearts, it is not easy to come over to negotiate, I didn't expect Anken Rein, who was cut off the ground, to be so calm.

"It can't be helped, after all, there's that one," Darcy Fields shrugged, "we're okay with opening the market, protecting serfs and workers, and want to try to talk about it again." What about you? ”

"We don't have a problem, Negro's industrial production capacity is much better than theirs, Elena is too young, they are engaged in export, it is difficult to fight us."

Missy Booker replied quickly, as he said, the Negro Republic is not afraid of this competition.

"We too, steam-powered equipment is the strength of the Third Republic of Fern, and we haven't been afraid of anyone except Alonte. Moreover, that person, no matter how powerful he is, shouldn't he become a steam master and genius at the same time as he becomes a mage, right? ”

Bluward Skodario is equally unfazed. The trackless steam locomotives of the Third Republic of Fern are changing the world, and even if there are really red flags, how can they threaten themselves with Elena's heritage and production capacity? Moreover, things like steam engines are easy to imitate. When the time comes, find a factory in China to do it better than the gourd painting scoop, Elena's products, don't you have to bow your head obediently and go out?

"What do you think of the core three clauses?" , Darcy Filth reconfirmed.

"We can."

"We don't have a big problem."

Both ambassadors agreed, and then they would take the preliminary draft and go to woo the Alonte Empire and Loren Robus. If all goes well, then everyone can settle down for a while and no longer have to worry about being killed by a sudden magic.
