"Could it be that the Empire's invasion of Anteli was actually instructed by you?" Roy wanted to find a random reason to lead the topic, and take the opportunity to mention the end of the war for Rhodes to invade Antelli, who would have thought that he would hear about such a huge plan to treat everything in the world as a pawn, and he was a little dazed for a while, and he didn't know how to continue to answer.

"No, no, no, it can only be regarded as acquiescence, I said that I want to establish a world pattern of bipolar confrontation, but I didn't say that these 'two poles' must be two countries. While it is most efficient to have two large and unified empires directly pitted against each other, it can theoretically achieve similar results in the form of an alliance of several nations against another. The man waved his hand and said with a helpless expression, "But the problem now is that Erican itself is an old empire much stronger than Midland, plus several kingdoms in the north stand with it...... The balance of power between the two poles is too poor, and if it weren't for my overt or covert intervention, so that Erican never dare to send troops directly, Midland probably wouldn't have been able to get to where it is today. ”

......

"So, my goal for Kyle Ross is to balance the power of the two empires as quickly as possible, in any way. Faqin said with a flat expression, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter: "Whether it is to weaken the other party, or strengthen oneself, or both at the same time, in short, as soon as possible for me to achieve the strategic goal of the balance of power between the two poles." Once the comprehensive strength of the two sides reaches a similar level, they will be separated by such a huge natural danger as the Boundary Mountain Range...... Even if I let go and don't intervene, the war between the two empires will be very difficult, and then I will be free to focus on preventing the Burning Legion from entering. ”

Roy nodded, but there was some confusion in his expression: "But, if I'm not mistaken, you and your mother have been busy destroying the 'Burning Legion' that has entered this world recently." Now that they've broken in......"

"That's right, that's the problem. The man smiled wryly at his daughter, "When your mother and I fled into this world, it was in a period of depletion of magic...... At that level of energy density, the demons on the other side of the universe would not be able to set up a stable portal to transport armies to invade this world, so I made this long-term plan with optimism. I naively thought that by the time the Tide of Mana brought enough energy back into this world, my plans would be on track, and that the world would already be capable of fighting the Burning Legion to stop their invasion. ”

Faqin looked helpless: "But the speed of the magic power resurgence is faster than I originally estimated, the spatial barriers of this world are more fragile than I thought, and the patience of the Burning Legion is worse than I thought...... All these factors combined to make my big game of chess useless, and it is quite possible that I would have to solve the problem in more extreme ways before most of the arrangements worked. ”

Luo Yi's heart moved, and things seemed to have a turnaround: "Then now...... Father, what are you going to do?"

"Settle the problem of Antaili and the rebellion of the southern Jiake tribe as soon as possible, and then transfer all forces to the area of the Boundary Mountains, and make every effort to encircle and eliminate the demons. The man's expression became serious: "Although the first wave of invasion of the Burning Legion has been repulsed, the large number of low-level demons remaining in this world are still a huge threat, their strength may not be enough to threaten the entire world, but they can continue to create pollution and destruction, use evil energy to corrupt the life of this world, deceive and tempt some people with special needs and desires in this world to make them fall, and even build a supporting teleportation array to facilitate the next round of attacks by the demons who are still on the other side of the universe...... There are a lot of troubles, I have to rest at home for a few days, and then I have to go out and continue to work. ”

"Father worked hard. "But there is some important information on Rhodes' side about ending the war against Antelli, and I think you should know about it...... During the danger he encountered, he accepted the official ...... of Antelli on several occasions Now it's the help and protection of the rebel soldiers, and by coincidence I met the de jure queen of Anteli, and brought back some important messages, Rod, tell them all. ”

Somewhat reluctantly, Rhodes told his father that Queen Elaine had entrusted him to tell the Emperor about admitting defeat and giving in and being willing to surrender in exchange for peace.

"Hmm......" The Guardian pondered for a moment before speaking, "I've heard some news from Kyle, this war against Anteli is essentially because they have reached a cooperation with Erriken to use the Cult of Light as a tool to join forces to contain the development of the Empire, but the most direct reason is because of the news from the spies planted by the Empire in the Anteli Army: the Anteli military is developing a disease that is ready to be used as a weapon to deter the Empire. Interestingly, I learned from your mother that King Anteli was actually deceived by a mage who defrauded the kingdom of Anteli of military funds under the pretext of studying diseases, but in fact he was experimenting with how to modify the human body. ”

"Now that the former King Anteli is dead, and the Church of Light has completely withdrawn from there, it is not impossible to re-establish peace with them. Faqin thought for a moment and made a decision: "I will ask the emperor to arrange for people to go north to negotiate, and see if I can solve this in a bloodless way......

"Father, why don't you just let Rod go. He was protected by the Antelli Resistance before, and he always had to pay back the favors he owed, so he could also exercise by the way. Moreover, there have been rumors in the city that he colluded with the Resistance to deal with the Imperial soldiers, and this time he was asked to solve the problem of the Resistance, wouldn't it be just right to silence the fools. ”

"Let this kid go?" Duke Foster looked at his daughter in surprise, and then at his son, until he looked at Rod uncomfortably, and finally looked away: "It's an interesting idea, I agree...... But stay safe. Besides, your mother has managed to exonerate you, but your Resistance friends know the truth, so you'd better keep their mouths shut up, and if someone accidentally says something about it, I'll kill them myself. ”

It took him a few seconds to understand what was going on, and he was overjoyed: first, for Roy to come up with such a good idea, and second, for his father to agree so easily. is also a child, and the weight of the daughter and the son's talk is so different!
