Chapter 209: The Power of Ordinary Beings
When all the visions finally dissipated, Duke Lin and all his men realized that they had only just stepped into the courtyard.
The breeze blew, making Duke Lin and the others feel that the clothes on their bodies had already been wet with sweat.
The previous scene really made them feel the threat of their lives, and they almost felt that they were about to be swallowed up by the vision.
Fortunately, the banyan tree in the courtyard dispelled those visions at a critical moment, and pulled them back from the brink of collapse.
Duke Lin looked up and saw Sululu and his daughter Lin Aiwei already standing under the banyan tree.
Lin Aiwei didn't seem to be affected in any way, bent down to build the fallen leaves under the banyan tree, and stood under the tree with Sululu talking and laughing.
Seeing such a scene, Duke Lin felt the panic in his heart, which was almost instantly dispelled.
Sululu smiled and turned his head to look at Duke Lin, and asked calmly, "Your Excellency, do you still question the power of life now?"
Lin Aiwei also turned her head to look over, and saw that Duke Lin and the others were still at the entrance of the courtyard, and immediately muttered: "Dad, what's the matter with you? Why don't you come in? What are you still standing there for? It's very cool here, and this tree seems to be able to talk, you come and listen, it's like talking to me, it's so interesting." β
Hearing Lin Aiwei's cheerful laughter, Duke Lin was suddenly surprised, and his gaze softened.
Duke Lin knew very well that his daughter had not been so happy for a long time, since she had contracted that terrible illness.
At this time, I saw my daughter running around the tree happily under the banyan tree, like an ordinary little girl.
Duke Lin felt something in his heart, and had to admit that what Sululu said was indeed reasonable, and he couldn't ignore the power of life.
The power of life belongs to any life, and every living life has its extraordinary power.
If this power erupts, even such a budding banyan tree will be able to resist the terrifying erosion of the evil gods.
Duke Lin finally took a step, stepping on the grass in the courtyard step by step, and came to the banyan tree.
Standing under the banyan tree, smelling the fragrance of grass, Duke Lin instantly felt an indescribable comfort.
The scent of grass, coupled with the breeze blowing on his face, made Duke Lin's whole body relax.
The little bit of anger left in his heart was completely expelled here, and Duke Lin felt that his body was much more relaxed.
Sululu waited for a moment before he spoke, "Your Excellency, please take a seat, I think we can talk calmly now." β
Duke Lin, who came to his senses, saw the stone table and stone bench under the tree, sitting opposite Sululu.
Duke Lin sighed: "I have to say that I underestimated the power of life, and I never thought it would be so powerful. β
Sululu nodded calmly and said, "Yes, the most primitive power of life is enough to overcome everything, isn't it?"
Duke Lin smiled bitterly and said with a helpless wry, "It seems that it is impossible for me to obtain Dragon City?"
Seeing that Sululu was just smiling and silent, Duke Lin no longer insisted, and instead said: "Since this is the case, then let's talk about what I can get from Dragon City? β
Sululu naturally knows very well that Thomas Ding Lin, as the current helmsman of the Lin family, is a guy who cannot suffer.
Since he can't get Dragon City anymore, if he can't give enough benefits, I'm afraid he may choose to leave.
Originally, Su Lulu didn't care about Duke Lin's stay at all, but the current situation is different.
According to Sululu and the rest of the city, when he returns, the Imperial fleet should also start attacking.
But now the coastline of Dragon City is very calm, which makes Sululu feel a little uneasy.
To say that the Imperial fleet gave up the attack, Sululu absolutely did not believe it.
And to say that the troubles of the Imperial fleet have not been solved, in terms of time, it is also impossible.
In the end, then, there was only one possibility, and that was for the Imperial fleet to brew a more direct attack.
Sululu sensed that there was still an internal response of the empire in Dragon City, and passed the situation of Dragon City to the imperial fleet.
If this is really the case, then when the Imperial fleet launches an attack, it will inevitably try to break through Dragon City in one fell swoop with the momentum of thunder.
Without knowing his opponent, Sululu is now not absolutely sure that he will be able to cope with the attack of the Imperial fleet.
In front of him, Duke Lin and the knights under his command have become a point that Sululu can rely on now.
If only Duke Lin's knights, one of the ten knights of the Republic, could arrive in time and join the defensive battle of Dragon City.
In Suluru's view, it is bound to be extremely beneficial to Dragon City, and can even bring a fatal blow to the Imperial fleet.
However, now Duke Lin began to bargain, wanting to sell his knights for a better price.
Sululu lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said to Duke Lin, "Your Excellency the Duke, can you tell me first, what do you want to get?"
The corners of Duke Lin's mouth rose slightly, he had always been in Sululu's hands, and now he had finally gained the initiative.
After thinking about it, Duke Lin spoke, "I hope to get the nominal support of Dragon City. β
Sululu's expression suddenly became solemn, and he frowned and said, "Do you want to let me support you to compete in the capital area?"
Duke Lin nodded with a smile: "You probably don't know that the term of office of the FΓΌhrer is coming, and there will soon be a new round of parliamentary elections, which is the real big thing, which is related to the reshuffling of the interests of the republic, and it is because of this that the republic will let the empire and the evil gods make trouble everywhere." β
Hearing this, Sululu's expression changed suddenly, and he said coldly: "Is it that for you magnates, the lives of the people are so worthless?"
Duke Lin sighed when he heard this, and said, "It's not that everyone doesn't care about the lives of the people, but now they don't have time to take care of those. β
Without waiting for Sululu's sneering words to come out, Duke Lin preemptively said, "I know, you would say that those guys are a bunch of bastards, yes, they are indeed a bunch of bastards and scum. β
After a pause, Duke Lin continued: "But those bastards and scum have the state apparatus in their hands, and they are the masters of the republic. β
"What do you think my Knights are? One of the Ten Knights of the Republic? Hehe, bullshit, if I am the enemy of the entire Republic, my little force is not bullshit. β
Duke Lin's words suddenly made Sululu fall silent, obviously he didn't expect this to be the case.
Now that the empire is counterattacking, the evil god is resurrected, and the republic is obviously in turmoil, this big ship is about to capsize at any time.
But in the eyes of the magnates of the capital of the Republic, everything is less important than the struggle for power between them.
Sululu found it difficult to understand what those powerful men were thinking. )
