Chapter 347: A Secret Covenant (I)

Saleen was a little disappointed, but his face didn't show half a point. Because a question immediately came to his mind.

The turtle alchemy ship is powerful, but it only has one, and there is no hope for a deep-sea creature like a turtle to catch another one. Moreover, the Iwaki Alchemy Ship is also a top-secret weapon in Metatrin City, and cannot be known to the enemy. If there is such a diving battleship, it can hide the existence of the Iwaki alchemy ship.

This thing is to be equipped with the navy, that is, it can be made repeatedly, unlike its own turtle alchemy ship. If you research the manufacturing method yourself, there are many things, but it is very practical.

I don't have to make it of metal, because there is thundercloud wood, which is much harder than metal, and it is not too heavy, and it saves a lot of magic cores when sailing underwater.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Salin smiled, this diving battleship came at the right time. The expansion of the navy by itself cannot be used by a living person. It's all an army of the undead, and the Wingskull has a slip-up. It will be difficult for him to command so many undead.

Seeing that Salin was happy, Balde was relieved. At this time, there was no formal ceremony, and the credentials could not be handed over, and what could be negotiated was trade. After solving the 100,000 magic cores at once, Balder began to consider whether he could establish a personal relationship with Salin.

"Nellis, go put away the dive battleship. "Salin handed Neris a dimensional stone. This alchemy equipment is called a battleship in its name, but it is actually a small boat, and Saleen has experience in making similar equipment with Rex, so it is not difficult to research.

Nellis grinned, took the dimensional stone, and went to put away the entire diving battleship. This ability is equivalent to a magician, and ordinary archmages may not be able to put away a big thing that is more than ten meters long.

Tiffany saw it, but didn't see it. She didn't see that Naris was a little demon, and she didn't find any great magician aura from her.

Balde and his cronies were a little tired at this time, and left the table before Salin could arrange a performance by a singer borrowed from the nobles. Daniel went to arrange their lodgings, and the palace was full of soldiers from the palace swordsman battalion, and there was nothing to be inquired about by Balder. The main secrets of Salen are all concentrated in the temple.

Saleen asked Tiffany and Stephanie to stay, and when he saw that Tiffany didn't get up, he knew she had something to say to him. The nobles also retreated, and only Aini remained. The rest of the hall were all followers around Salin.

"Master, what does Your Majesty have to say to me?" Salin said when he saw that Balder and the others had been sent away. There are very few courtesies between magicians. It doesn't take too many bends either.

"Your Majesty doesn't have anything to do, he asked me to see if it is possible for you, Metatrin City, to send troops to assist Holy Rock City. If your strength is too poor, forget it, if there is a possibility...... His Majesty is willing to make some deals. ”

"Deal?"

"You are not a nobleman canonized by Your Majesty, if you send troops, Your Majesty will compensate you. Tiffany was more direct. "This compensation is not unconditional, if your soldiers are very bad, Your Majesty will have no choice. It will take a few victories before the money can be allocated in the treasury. ”

"Send troops? this ...... I heard that the battle situation in Jialoulan is very beneficial to Qin Yin. Salin didn't rush to agree, though he also wanted to march into Garulan in the name of it. The most feared thing about this kind of thing is not being able to participate.

"The news from the city of Scochenia, His Majesty Donnie, who has added a holy word to his name, seems to have been involved in the battle. Tiffany's tone was a little haughty, but it wasn't aimed at Saleen. The Emperor of Skocina, His Majesty Donnie, who is megalomaniac and hated even more than the Emperor of the Clouds, is in front of his name. The holy word added.

In the eyes of the Magus, this is a clown. Even if he is a Golden Sword Master, it is the same.

How about Chanak the Great, his strength is far superior to that of the Golden Sword Master, and he is not so arrogant. And Chanak the Great was not invincible, not yet calculated by the Holy See to die.

"Understood...... "No matter what Salin said, he has also experienced a lot of things, Rex has taught by words and deeds, and Nania's desperate indoctrination, he can't think about the situation on the mainland clearly.

Skocchia appears to be in disarray, but in fact it is powerful enough to upset the balance between the other three countries. If Skocchia wanted to help the Tangulas Empire, then sending troops from the Duchy of the Rhine would counterattack into the territory north of Qin.

This position, Qin Yin was not hindered by Xiongguan, so he originally relied on Jialoulan to shield it. Now that Garulan has been eroded, the soldiers of the Principality of the Rhine can enter Qin Yin as long as they pass through a hill of more than three hundred miles.

The Qin Yin Empire only stationed Rex's army here, and because of the terrain, the army that entered here had to cross Phoenix and make a bend to the north before it could re-enter Qin Yin. But at this time, the invaders are all plains.

Whether it was the Tangulas Empire or Scochenia, there were more cavalry than Qin Yin.

In the field on the plains, the cavalry will always outperform the infantry. Unless your infantry is a magical legion. However, Qin Yin's two main forces attacked Garudan, and the troops had already pointed directly to the middle line of Garudan, and most of Garudan's territory had been defeated, and it was impossible to return to the army to rescue.

Once the Rhine Duchy invades from here, then it can only rely on the northern nobles to resist it first.

If it was in the past, naturally there were Phoenix people rushing to the front, and now the Phoenix people are very disgusted with Qin Yin. It is too difficult to get the Phoenix nobles to send troops.

Of course, Emperor Qin Yin could send a royal swordsman battalion to plug this gap, but it would be more economical to let Salin do this. The Royal Swordsman Battalion lost more than 10,000 people because of the expedition of Chanak the Great, and Holy Rock City would not be willing to let the Royal Swordsman Battalion go on another expedition for several years.

The gap between Qin Yin and the Tangulas Empire is too great, and Qin Yin is relatively wealthy and has a little status. The Tangulas were all dogs and horses, and the emperor could serve as a messenger at will. When necessary, one-third of the more than 300 million people in the Tangulas Empire can be sent to battle. That's the scariest thing.

"What does the Master think of my army?" Salin asked rhetorically.

"It's ok. Tiffany smiled, Salin asked interestingly, he didn't show any real strength at all.

"Even if the credentials are exchanged, it is not considered to be the establishment of a military alliance, and my army, if it accidentally enters Garulan, it will be a huge trouble. Saleen directly stated his concerns, in fact, he wanted a definite reply from Holy Rock City. Otherwise, it will not be fun for Holy Rock City to turn its face in the future.

"I'm afraid the affairs of the alliance are difficult. Holy Rock City is not His Majesty alone. However, you can organize mercenaries. Tiffany was helpless. Straight to O'Jarvis' thoughts. This Salin, as expected, repeatedly shirked and refused to step forward. In terms of this reaction, Tiffany admires O'Jarvis' speculation.

If it were herself, I am afraid that she would not be able to withstand this temptation and directly send troops to join the battle.

Even if only a hundred people were sent out, all of whom died in Garulan, there would be a reason to intervene in Garudan. This Salin was stunned, and it was not disguised.

"Mercenary, how to calculate the price of this mercenary, if it is like His Majesty's acquisition of the magic core, I can't afford it. Salin's face at this time. Like the Scorpians. This is also something that can't be helped, he can give the magic core to Ojavis at half price, because the cost is very low. But when the mercenaries are dispatched, the daily consumption is money, and if they are sent out, they are of little use, and if they are sent out more, the commission is a big problem.

"You're not without benefits, how can you push back. "Stephanie can't stand it anymore, she's not a royal magician, she's just a magician trained by Chanak the Great, so she's not so polite to Saleen. She is looking at the issue entirely privately.

"What can I get?" Salin sneered: "I send mercenaries over, even if I win the battle, all I get is a commission, my soldiers, can they occupy the territory that they have been defeated? My nobles, can they get a reward for this? My mage, can I choose a city at will to build a magic tower because of this?"

"Are you still a mage?" retorted Stephanie.

"I can think of it, everyone under me will. If I can't give them a satisfactory answer, why should they follow me?" Salin retorted.

"So, Your Highness Salin, what are your plans?" said Stephanie with a sly smile.

Salin shrugged, like a nobleman, and said, "My mercenary group, with no restrictions on its size, can pass through the interior of Qinyin. No taxes, no command. ”

"How is this possible?" Tiffany wondered, Salin opened his mouth like a lion, which was equivalent to blocking the opportunity for cooperation between the two sides.

"Why is it impossible, my mercenaries don't need to enter Qin Yin, from Phoenix, they can go directly to the Rhine Principality. In this way, it is a precautionary measure.

Stephanie frowned and said, "No need to beat around the bush, you know, this condition." Holy Rock City will not agree. ”

"Then give me the Duchy of the Rhine. Saleen went straight in. His purpose is only to seize the Rhine Principality, and with Rex here, he doesn't have to go to war with Qin Yin.

"Ha, can you eat the Duchy of the Rhine?" said Stephanie in a mocking tone.

"I'm from Skolchenia, a merchant in Scochenia, and I can order goods, even if they haven't been made yet. Salin replied lightly.

"It seems that what you want is a secret agreement!" Tiffany sighed, His Majesty O'Jarvis had guessed it all, and none of Saleen's requests were not what O'Jarvis had said. If O'Jarvis wasn't that kind of body, it wouldn't be a problem to be one of Qin Yin's greatest emperors.

A secret agreement is an allusion, simply put, it is a private transaction between two emperors, aimed at a third party. This transaction will never be mentioned on the surface, but it is binding. Such a secret covenant can bypass the forces that bind the emperor and be directly enforced.
