The next day, Thea met with two envoys of the Shadow Empire in the council hall.

Originally, yesterday was already the day of Zuihou given by Catherine, and it was also the day when Thea and Cafu agreed to start negotiations, but after seeing things like newspapers and magic TV, Cafu temporarily changed his strategy, using the excuse that Selene had not recovered from her mental state during the incident at Princess Villa and needed to take a day off, which delayed the negotiation.

In fact, Cafu used the teleporter to get in touch with Catherine, and after receiving new instructions, he brought the "healed" Selene to the palace.

In the middle of the council hall was a long white table, and Thea sat on the throne in front of the table, with several chairs lined up on either side, on the left side sat Disjaro, Stiller and others, and on the right side was empty, apparently reserved for the two envoys.

Cafu and Seline bowed to Thea, who raised her hand to let the two sit down on the right side, and said, "Miss Selene, you were frightened by what happened the day before yesterday. After investigation, the hijacking incident was planned by the veteran family Mishan family, and the Mishan family is a spy of the Bloody Empire, and the real identity of the patriarch Angli is the Marquis of Blood, who has been lurking in the Fallen Angel Empire for many years, and has not been discovered before due to obsidian mediocrity and incompetence. The purpose of Angliel's planning of the kidnapping incident this time is obvious, to sabotage this peace talks, sow discord between our two countries, and let the bloody empire benefit from it. I have destroyed the Yoneyama family as quickly as possible, and Rosen Pol, who offended Miss Selene last time, has also been deposed of all Liliang and will be sentenced to life imprisonment worse than death, and I hope that General Cafu and Miss Selene will be satisfied. ”

It is indeed a very, very heavy punishment to behead a patriarchal family, and the heir of another patriarchal family (ostensibly) becomes a waste person and imprisoned for a lifetime, and life is better than death.

However, everyone on the side of the Fallen Angel Empire understands the cattleness inside, especially Stiller, who is grateful - the empress Bixia's semantic focus is to put the blame on the Yoneyama family, and Rosen's disposal seems to be miserable on the surface, but at that time it was Stiller himself. In order for Laura to spare his life, it is fundamentally different from the envoy's side.

This is the advantage of standing in line, if you don't surrender to the empress, I'm afraid it's not just Lawson himself. The entire Ball family is in trouble this time.

Cafu glanced at Selene, who immediately stood up and showed a smile like a spring breeze: "I said, Bixia is the host, I'm just a guest, no matter what Bixia does, I don't have any objections." I would like to thank Bixia for her care and help. ”

Xia nodded: "Now that we have an insight into the conspiracy of the bloody empire, we should unite as one, truly show the sincerity of cooperation, establish a relationship of mutual assistance and mutual benefit, good neighborliness and friendship, and jointly move towards the road to prosperity." ”

Cafu spoke: "Bixia is right, we were ordered by Emperor Catherine to come to the Fallen Angel Imperial Capital with sincere friendship. In order to further promote bilateral relations and development. ”

Both sides spoke very well, but they all knew that the so-called friendship was just a nice shell. Between countries, there is a naked interest relationship in the bones.

If it weren't for the powerful Bloody Empire, the Shadow Empire would have annexed the Fallen Angel Empire long ago, and the Fallen Angel Empire would have taken advantage of this most important point to maneuver. It's like when the White Night Emperor was in power, Catherine was trying to survive in the gap between the bloody and the fallen angels.

The game relationship between the three countries is a bit similar to Chen Rui's memory of the Three Kingdoms era in the late Han Dynasty in the Middle East, which is quite delicate.

Over the years, the strong and the weak have been strong and weak, but they have always stood tall. It is still unknown which of the three empires will perish first, and which one will be able to laugh and laugh. ...,

After the scene is finished, all that remains is to throw away the shell of hypocrisy, and it is time for Chiguoguo's interests to negotiate.

Now Thea is using a trick to make Wayne and make it. After subduing the patriarchal family and the royal family, and greatly strengthening the control of the empire, Catherine's original plan has failed, but Cafu's attitude is still very tough, proposing a series of harsh conditions such as the Shadow Empire's garrison Dark Moon, the secret recipe for sharing land improvement, and the "talent exchange" including Chen Rui, the financial officer of Dark Moon.

At first glance, these conditions sound intolerable, and there is almost an urge to beat Cafu up. It's just that Disjak, Stiller and others here are also veterans of negotiations, and they are not in a hurry, and they use a strategy of slow work and careful grinding to dissipate Cafu's offensive little by little.

In fact, both sides of the negotiation have a reserve price, and on this basis, they ask for a price to pay back on the spot. After intense negotiations, Cafu finally relented, and the issue of the Darkmoon garrison could be renegotiated, and requests such as land improvement and the recipe of the Battle Ball could also be considered in an alternative way...... However, there is a "talent exchange" that resolutely does not let go, that is, Chen Rui must be a person.

Judging from the current situation, the attitude of the Shadow Empire has been greatly eased, this is a good start, and the strength of the Fallen Angel Empire is weaker than the other party, it must make certain concessions, and it is inevitable to sacrifice some people or interests, if Chen Rui can promote the key to an agreement between the two countries, then it will definitely be worth it.

The negotiators, Disjak and Stiller, set their eyes on Empress Bixia, but Empress Bixia's expression remained unchanged and did not appear to be moved, so she had to avoid the important issue and not give a formal answer. Cafu's side was naturally very dissatisfied, and some of the originally loose sides began to press again, and after several hours of verbal warfare, the two sides did not reach any substantive agreement.

At this time, it was already noon, and Xia arranged for Cafu and Seline to go to dinner and rest, while the negotiating team of the Fallen Angel Empire stayed.

Disjak spoke: "Bixia, please forgive me, I think I can consider agreeing to the talent exchange request of the Shadow Empire, although Chen Rui is a rare internal talent who has made great contributions to the prosperity of the Dark Moon, but now that Bixia has ascended the throne, his eyes should be on the overall situation, not a Dark Moon territory, so." There is a need to make some sacrifices. ”

Stiller and the others also echoed their words, but Xia rejected this proposal in one sentence: "You can use a large amount of soil crystals to replace the soil improvement formula, you can also give up the formula of the battle ball, and you can even share the jishu of the magic TV, but Chen Rui can't make any concessions in this matter!"

This resolute attitude made Di Sjaro and the others look at each other: how could a mere human being have such weight in the mind of Empress Bixia, more important than the battle ball and the secret recipe of magic TV?

If it had been before, some representatives of the patriarchal families would have jumped out to debate fiercely, but now they didn't dare to say more, but Stiller asked tentatively, "Bixia." Do you take into account the side of the Lord of the Darkmoon Athena......"

"It's not Athena's problem. Xia looked at the puzzled people: "There are no outsiders here, so I will reveal a little bit to you." Let's think about it, the battle ball, the magic water conservancy system, and the strong aroma rice wine...... Including newspapers and magic television, have they ever appeared in the Demon Realm?"

Everyone shook their heads. These are all new things that have never been seen before, and several quick-thinking people have already reacted, their faces are full of horror, and Disjak couldn't help but ask: "Bixia means these are ......"

"That's right," Thea nodded, "These new things, each of them has his shadow in it, and the ideas of magic TV, battle balls, magic water systems, etc., are in the dark moon." Feng Saka and Master Yu were inspired by him, the newspaper was a plan he proposed some time ago, and the recipe for the strong aroma rice wine was also provided by Chen Rui!"...,

Everyone invariably showed a look of shock, they didn't expect this human talent to reach such a level, and finally understood, Xia Weishenme did not let go of this matter.

Teaching people to fish and teaching people to fish are completely different concepts, how can such a talent who can be called against the sky be lost to other countries!

Xia said with a solemn face: "Remember, everyone. The matter about Chen Rui is top secret, and there must be no rumors about it!"

Everyone nodded in unison, in fact, the empress Bixia still had the biggest secret that had not been said - this human being was the future royal highness. is also the only man that Empress Bixia has fallen in love with since the eldest princess, how can she let it be given to others?

Chen Rui didn't know that he had become a hot "in-demand commodity" in the negotiations, and at this time, he was taking Isabella to discuss the matter of the Seal of Light with Lola in the Rainbow Valley.

"Space magic isn't as simple as you might think. After asking Chen Rui about his intention to go to the human Shijie, Laura shook his head: "Those magicians of the human race should have made a fixed facility after countless shiyans to detect the matter with spatial coordinate attributes where the demon world is located, and then use the approximate location coordinates of this coordinate to launch a random teleportation of the jumping space, this kind of teleportation is quite dangerous, and it is likely to fall into the spatial turbulence and disappear." I don't have that kind of facility right now. Even if there were, it would take several months to detect the spatial coordinates of the Shiyan human Shijie, plus the Shiyan that debugged the machine and teleported...... It will take at least a few years......"

Chen Rui was like being poured from the top of his head by a scoop of cold water, and he suddenly felt cold for most of the time: "Then what other way can I go to human shijie?"

"Human shijie has a secret summoning technique, which will use a special magic array to summon creatures from another dimension. Sign a contract on both sides willingly, this situation should be able to achieve the safe teleportation of space, but it is generally summoned by demons with low strength, and there is a considerable element of luck, it is difficult to encounter, obviously this method is not suitable for the current situation. ”

"Do you have a way to suppress the Seal of Light Annihilation?"

"If it was the early days of the curse mark, I might be able to neutralize or strip it with the dark element, but the curse mark has penetrated deep into the soul after two hundred years, and if it is forcibly removed, it will wipe out the host's soul along with it. Laura thought for a moment, "Now I can only appropriately alleviate the pain of this spell seal, but I can't prolong the time for the final eruption, so let Ini stay here for a few tests." ”

Lola's answer made Chen Rui's mood extremely heavy: "Isabella, you stay here, I'll go to the Dark Moon now, the Earth Elemental King should already be on his way to the Dark Moon." ”

Isabella smiled slightly and nodded, "Okay." ”

The two women watched Chen Rui's figure disappear into the portal of the Rainbow Valley, and Lola pondered for a moment and asked, "Weishenme won't let me tell him that there is another way to reach the human Shijie?"

Isabella asked rhetorically, "That way...... Are you sure?"

Laura shook her head: "No, if you break through the space directly, the danger is much greater than that of a human teleportation, even if I myself may fall into the spatial turbulence, I believe that even if it is a demigod-level powerhouse, I don't dare to try it easily." ”

"You should know him, if there is no other way, he will definitely try," Isabella shrugged: "So, as a woman, are you willing to watch your beloved man risk his life for another woman?"

At the beginning, Isabella met Lola when she came to Dark Moon to "save" her best friend Chlobe Ruth, and the two got along very happily, this time before coming to Rainbow Valley with Lola, Isabella deliberately asked Lola about the method of going to human Shijie before Chen Rui, so she asked Lola to keep a method secret from Zuihou. ...,

"Of course not. ”

Laura replied without hesitation, pondered for a moment, and added: "However, if he is not a man with commitments, he cannot be my man." ”

Isabella was slightly stunned, and looked at Lola's gaze with a strange color: "Really? I suddenly thought of what he said he didn't understand. When the Nazis came to arrest people, I was silent because I was not human, when they came to arrest Jews, I was silent because I was not Jewish, when they came to arrest trade unionists, I was silent because I was not a trade unionist, when they came to arrest Catholics, I was silent because I was a Protestant, and when they came to arrest me, there was no one to speak for me. Do you have ...... What does that mean?"

"What?" Lola frowned, not pretending to be stupid, "Why haven't I heard that." ”

"Does he say differently than every woman? My sister Laura, it looks like you're going to have to take some time to train this guy. Isabella smiled coquettishly: "But before that, you still want to help me try to get the light oblivion seal, people are afraid of the pain to death." ”

"Oh," Laura replied dumbfoundedly, "I suddenly want to listen to a tune, listen to Thea, what is it called...... "Shijie Doomsday"?"

It was the first time Isabella encountered the black belly attribute of the pseudo-natural lady, and she couldn't help but be stunned: "No problem." ”

"By the way, I heard Oliface say it, it seems to ...... He often drinks a drink at your place, and he drinks it for hours. ”

"Drinks?"

"What?"

"It's called tea, and it tastes a little bitter, and you may not be used to it. ”

"What?"

"Okay...... I'll make you ...... drink."

"Oh. ”
