Chapter 019: Alliance Conditions
Of course she knew about the Katier family in the Carter Kingdom, and of course she knew Katerina's identity, but she just didn't know how to face it for a while.
She doesn't like war, she hates killing.
The three empires combined to destroy the three kingdoms, resulting in more than 10 million deaths in the three countries.
The Carter Kingdom alone has more than five million deaths.
The Valoran Empire, although it only nominally occupied the Kingdom of Casul, also caused a lot of carnage in the Kingdom of Carter.
Among them, the largest family in the Carter Kingdom except for the royal family, the Kadil family, directly led to its extinction.
This Caterina is the only surviving girl, the girl who is still being hunted down by the Lacey Empire.
Nora took her hand and said with pity, "Son, how did you get here?" ”
Brother Han Dong said that you must consider the problem from the other party's point of view, and try to exaggerate the seriousness of the situation as much as possible, in order to make the other party empathize.
So, she looked at Nora with blazing eyes and said, "I'm here to save the hundreds of millions of people of the Valoran Empire. ”
Hearing this sentence in Nora's ears made her stunned again.
"You're going to save the Valoran Empire?" Nora said she didn't get it.
Katerina shook her head and said, "Not to save the Valoran Empire, but to save the people of the Valoran Empire." ”
Nora waved her hand, and a faint curtain of water rose, forming a semicircular ball that surrounded the two of them.
"Tell me more."
Katerina then took Han Dong and her analysis of the movements of the Lacey Empire, as well as the grim form formed by the special geographical location of the Valoran Empire.
Finally, Caterina added: "Your Excellency Garrot, the water sword god of your empire, is said to have been out to sea for a long time and has not returned, but the Empire of Reis gave birth to a dark god five years ago.
In this way, the Reis Empire had two ninth-order powerhouses.
In such a strong and weak form, after the Lacey Empire annexed the Xiling Empire, it is estimated that it will take advantage of the situation to join forces with the Aegean Empire with the power of thunder to take the Valoran Empire in one fell swoop, divide the land of Valoran, and enslave the people of Valoran. ”
After saying that, Caterina still maintained that serious and sympathetic expression.
Brother Han Dong said that the other party must feel that form of severity and urgency.
She had to keep her expression solemn.
Nora knew of course that Caterina's words were exaggerated, but on the whole, there was no logical error in the analysis.
In other words, it is extremely possible for the Valoran Empire to be surrounded by the Lacey Empire and the Aegean Empire, and even to start a war later.
And this ultimately led to the suffering of the Valoran people.
If for the fall of the Carter Kingdom, the tragic suffering of the people in it, Nora can still use excuses such as national interests to calm her heart.
Then when it is her own people who are about to suffer, even the people she knows, and her own students, she will no longer be able to feel at ease.
"What do you need me to do?" Recognizing the reality, Nora looked at Caterina and said.
Caterina was secretly happy in her heart, this was a big step of success.
"I need to meet with His Majesty the Emperor of your country so that our two countries can reach an alliance. If this step goes well, then your country needs to send a convincing figure to join us in the Hyling Empire, forming an alliance of three nations to resist the Lacey Empire and the Aegean Empire. Caterina began.
Nora nodded when she heard this, and said, "Come on, let's enter the palace together, and go now." ”
Whether as the dean of the Imperial Capital Academy of Magic or as an imperial enshriner, Nora has the right to enter the palace to see the emperor at any time.
Fifteen minutes later, Caterina met the current Emperor of the Valoran Empire, Sadoya, an old man with brown hair.
Nora had already spoken to Sadoya about the basics.
After meeting Katerina, Sadoya directly asked a question.
"What are you going to use to form an alliance with us?"
Hearing this, Katerina said secretly: Sure enough, as Brother Han Dong expected, although the situation is indeed unfavorable to Valoran, as a victorious country, they will definitely be very arrogant.
To form an alliance with them, you need to have a certain amount of capital.
So, she looked at Sadoya without fear and said, "Take the Golden Epiphany Legion of my Carter Kingdom, and the determination of the people of my Carter Kingdom to expel the invaders of the Lacey Empire!" ”
Hole cards, can not be shown at once, need to be taken out a little bit, so as to leave yourself with room to slow down.
This is also what Caterina learned from Han Dong's brother.
Sadoya smiled when he heard this: "I don't doubt the determination of the people of the Carter Kingdom, but the Golden Epiphany Legion has been destroyed, and if this is all there is, I don't think you can have the qualifications to form an alliance with us." ”
Caterina spoke: "And the Barbarian Kingdom, the Sword Saint of Wrath, the Barbarian King Carlo is my uncle, and he has promised to help me restore the kingdom!" ”
Sadoya became a little serious when she heard this.
The name of St. Carlo, the Sword of Fury, has been heard in the countries surrounding the Carter Kingdom.
Although he was only an eighth-order sword saint, after becoming mad, he could be on par with a ninth-order god-level powerhouse.
That's a big dependence indeed.
"No wonder the Lacey Empire dug three feet into the ground and didn't catch you, it turns out that Her Royal Highness Princess Caterina ran to the Barbarian Kingdom.
But Carlo Juggernaut is a foreigner after all, and we can't believe that he will be absolutely on your side.
I'm afraid this condition is not enough. “
It was not Sadoya or Nora who uttered these words, but a young man with black hair and black eyes.
Aside from the giant Han Dong's brother, Caterina only knows one place where people have black hair and black eyes.
The Helling Empire!
Finding Caterina looking at him, the young man put his left hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and said, "It's me who is rude." Let me introduce myself, my name is Murphy, the sixth prince of the Xiling Empire. ”
Caterina also replied when she heard this, she had already thought of something.
"Looks like I don't need to make another trip to the Xiling Empire."
Hearing this, Sadoya smiled and said: "Haha, both of you are very courageous and strategic, outstanding young men, since we have met, both of them should sit down." ”
After the two of them were seated, Sadoya continued: "Prince Murphy arrived in the Valoran Imperial Capital the day before yesterday, and it was to discuss the formation of an alliance, and we have reached a cooperation so far. Caterina, just like Prince Murphy said just now, the conditions you mentioned cannot become an ally between the two of us. ”
Caterina knew she had to be strong enough.
"I need one person to follow me to one place first, and then a few people to go with me to an open place." Caterina said.
Sadoya glanced at Murphy, and then said, "Then let's go out with Caterina to have a look." ”
"I'll go with you." Nora spoke.
The four of them first came to a martial arts arena in the palace, which was a place for the princes to use magical beasts to fight, and then Nora followed Caterina out of the imperial city and found Swift.
"What kind of monster is this? The amount of magic elements in the body is so low, but it has such a large size!? Nora looked at the strange bird of prey and asked.
