Pan couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Yin, you go out first!"

Yin didn't dare to disobey her brother's orders, so she saluted Luke and left the room.

After the door closed, Pan said to Luke, "According to Yin, the appeal of the Moonlight Royal Court is left to the Shimmering Elder's House to decide. However, I warn you not to get your hopes up too much, and don't anger the Shining Gold civilization, the strong will not bow to the weak. ”

Luke said indifferently, "Then wait for the reply from the Elders' House." Until then, I will not reveal anything to the Shining Gold Civilization about the Moonlight Court and the World Tree. ”

After listening to Luke's words, Pan realized that his prediction was too accurate, and the first step of this seemingly simple task hit the wall.

At the same time, Pan also realized that his real appeal for coming here may not be smooth.

But...... Always give it a try.

Pan said, "When I go back, I will report to the House of Elders immediately. I came here for another thing...... Word suggests that Waves is forming a fleet that will soon launch an attack on the Leo Navy. ”

"How is this possible!" Luke opened his eyes and said nonsense: "The Golden Shield Empire and the Republic of Leo are friendly neighbors, and the two sides are important trading partners of each other, how can we take the initiative to attack the Leo Navy?"

Moreover, the Empire not only had to exterminate the rebels in the Tedgar Hills, but also faced the invasion of the Atshire Union, and really did not have the energy to provoke another enemy.

Prince Iwa, where did you get such ridiculous information? ”

Pan didn't expect the meteorite to admit it.

Look at the coast of Leo, which is almost already occupied by pirates. The Leo Navy made several sorties to encircle and suppress pirates, but was either ambushed by Brilliant Island or "mistakenly injured" by the patrolling anti-smuggling fleet in the Cape area.

The generation difference of the battleship makes the first aircraft-class battleship a floating war fortress on the sea, and it is an invincible existence.

Now the Cosmos Navy and the main force of the Anti-Smuggling Fleet in the Cape District have been assembled to practice the Grand Fleet operations on a daily basis, ranging from naval encounters to artillery bombardment of a fully defended coast.

The hypothetical target of the exercise was the Rio Navy.

Now that everyone knows that the Raging Waves fleet is about to launch a naval attack on Leo, you dare not admit it as the Governor of Angry Waves!

"Governor of the Falling Star...... Even if you don't admit it, I know what you want to do. Taking advantage of the fact that Leo's puppet council was pinned down by the Windwatcher's Restoration Army, the Mighty Waves Navy defeated Leo's sea power in one fell swoop, dominating the sea area and turning Leo into a landlocked country.

When I succeed in recovering the country, Leo's ship must be approved by you when it goes to sea.

I warn you that you are seriously depleting the trust you have built between us, and you are setting up a formidable enemy for you. ”

"Pan, is the enemy you are talking about in the future Leo Kingdom, or the current Glittering Gold Civilization?" Luke leaned on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, and said with a sneer: "If it is the Leo Kingdom, it is my job to weaken a potential opponent; If it's the Glittering Gold Civilization, you're just an Elder Alternate, and you're not yet in a position where you can influence the decisions of the Sparkling Gold Civilization.

Who do you have to threaten me? ”

"Meteorite!" Pan stood up angrily, but he quickly calmed down and sat down again: "I apologize to you for the offense of my words. But I am the future king of Leo's kingdom, and I cannot explain it to my subjects if my allies attack Leo.

I can sign a secret treaty with you, and when I retake the country, I will dismantle a part of the Rio Navy and severely limit the size of the Rio Navy in the future.

I assure you that the Kingdom of Leo will not pose any threat to the Golden Shield Empire. ”

"I hate unequal treaties, so I'm not going to sign a treaty that is unilaterally beneficial," Luke said. This attack was only aimed at Leo's naval forces, and even if the Marines had a landing operation, they would retreat immediately after completing their strategic objectives.

Leo will not have an inch of land occupied.

After that, I will do everything possible to limit the size of the Leo Navy. If you can succeed in recovering the country, you can also do your best to break free from the shackles I have given you. Of course...... If you fail to return to the country, you are not qualified to fight me. ”

Luke made it clear that he wanted to disarm Leo of his maritime force and potential.

Without the treaty, Leo would not be protected by the treaty, and he could do whatever he wanted.

Pan felt the anger in his chest like a pent-up volcano, wanting to erupt but not being able to vent here. He was already desperate to restore the country, putting all his family and loyal supporters on the Lookout Restoration Army.

Now that the Wind Lookers have gained a foothold in Leo, and there is an endless stream of people who have heard the wind and come to join him, the day of the restoration of the kingdom seems to be at hand. At this time, it must not be without the support of Angry Waves City, otherwise once it fails, there will be no one in Leo who is close to the kingdom from now on.

However, the meteorite chose to attack Leo at this time.

Although Leo's navy belongs to the puppet council, the Angry Waves fleet is a foreign army after all, and it is an infringement on Leo!

"Is there really no room for negotiation? I can give money, or something. ”

Pan's attitude is very humble.

Luke was unmoved: "If the army of Angry Waves wants to go north along the coast, they will definitely not allow the Leo Navy to exist.

This is a matter of the survival of the empire and the survival of Angry Waves City, so I have to let you be wronged.

When this war is over, Raging Waves will increase its support for the Windwatchers. Strategic-level weapons, including War Bastion, are allowed to be procured by the Lookouts. ”

Luke didn't overly stimulate Pan, and he still needed to give a sweet date for a slap.

In the past, in order to take care of the relations between the Republic of Leo and the Empire, some heavy weapons were not provided to the Lookouts. This time I hit the Leo Navy, so there is no need to care about the feelings of the Leo Republic. A weapon like the War Fortress can not only greatly strengthen the offensive capability of the Wind Lookout Restoration Army, but also make the Haijiao District Machinery Factory make money, so why not.

Through Luke's words, Pan figured out the strategy for the next stage of the Golden Shield Empire. If the Golden Shield Empire moves north by sea and lands on the northern coast to threaten the Atlanta from the flank, it must suppress the Atlantic Navy at sea.

At this time, we must not be able to stay in the hidden danger of the Rio Navy.

It seems that whether it is for the sake of short-term strategy or long-term strategy, Angry Waves City must fight the Leo Navy.

Pan can only accept this fact.

Fortunately...... Angry Waves opens up more weapons to the Windwatchers, which can be regarded as a gain and a loss.

Everything will wait until the country is recaptured, and then we will be qualified to talk about enmity.

"If nothing else, I'll go back." Trying his best to remain calm, Pan stood up and said, "There's one more thing to inform you...... In view of the outbreak of war between the Golden Shield Empire and the Atlantic Union, the World Bank decided to temporarily suspend the cooperation program with the two countries.

Previous cooperation projects will not be affected, but the city will not be able to secure new loans and investments from the World Bank until the war is over. ”

The World Bank does not intervene in political disputes, and there is no room for the war between the Golden Shield Empire and the Atlantic Union to operate, so it is not surprising that Angry Waves will lose the World Bank as a source of investment.

Fortunately, Luke, who expected the outbreak of war, lent out all the money he could borrow from the World Bank before the war started, and signed all the investment projects as quickly as possible. Therefore, the World Bank's decision did not have a big impact on the city, and Luke had a lot of money to spend on the development of the city and the formation of the army.

"The war period is enough for us to implement the cooperation we have negotiated and make a profit, and when the war is over, there will be another round of cooperation between Angry Waves and the World Bank.

I wish you a speedy accession to the throne! ”

Luke stood up and shook hands with the farewelling Pan, and then he felt Pan's hand so strong that it seemed to break his bones.

But this guy has a smile on his face.

Luke thought to himself, if I had been held like this by you before, I would have been embarrassed, but now ...... Your Governor is not the former Inspector anymore.

Luke added the strength of his grip to the Rock Demon bloodline, which gave him extraordinary strength. His hand was like steel, and the hand holding the rock squeezed inward. At first, Pan was able to keep his smile and work harder, but gradually his smile changed, and pain appeared on his face.

Iwa discovers that he has miscalculated the strength of the meteorite...... He didn't seem to be that strong before?

In order to show his individual strength and make the meteorite have some scruples in the future, Pan secretly uses the power of his shimmering golden people. Golden light erupted from the cracks in his hands, and the increased strength allowed him to begin to fight back.

Luke also made another effort.

The red light of the flames came out from between his fingers, and the dragon pattern on the back of his hand was even brighter.

Gluttony borrowed his strength to give Luke an overwhelming advantage over Pan in an instant. The sudden sharp pain made Pan subconsciously withdraw his hand, and then tried his best to restrain his expression and salute Luke: "Goodbye, Lord Governor!"

Luke didn't feel embarrassed, he withdrew his strength to break free.

"Goodbye, Director Iwa."

Pan left the reception room, and he raised his trembling right hand, on which was a reddish palm print, and inside was a piercing pain.

Sitting on a bench in the corridor outside, Yin waited when he saw Pan come out, and asked with concern, "What did you talk about with the Governor of Meteorite?" Why are you so angry? I've never felt so angry with you!

What happened to your hand? ”

"Nothing?" Pan put his hand in his pocket, secretly used healing magic to alleviate the damage to his bones, and then said to Yin, "It's all because of the World Tree." The stubbornness of the Governor of Meteor will provoke the wrath of the House of Elders, causing disaster for him and the Moonlight Court.

You stay here and talk to him, try to convince him not to hold the Shimmer accountable for the war thousands of years ago, he should listen to you. ”

"Okay...... But Meteor is a very assertive person, and I'm afraid I won't be able to convince him. ”

Pan said: "The House of Elders will definitely give assistance to the Moonlight Royal Court, but it can't be compensation. There were too many creatures affected by ancient wars thousands of years ago, and the House of Elders would never set a precedent for compensation for the Moonlight Royal Court, and the higher civilization had the dignity of the higher civilization.

Do your best to enlighten him.

I'm leaving Angry Waves and going to the headquarters to report to the House of Elders, and the World Bank's cooperation with Angry Waves is up to you to talk to Meteorite. ”

"I see, I'll leave it here."

"Hmmm......"

When Pan was gone, he knocked on the door of the reception room, then pushed the door and walked in.

Luke was standing outside the window looking out at the square in front of the government affairs hall, where many civil servants on their lunch break were strolling or buying a cup of coffee from a vendor.

Yin walked over to Luke's side and watched the scene in the square together.

The emotional training of the people of Shuojin makes the temperament of the sound like an elegant orchid. She has a gentle temperament, is considerate, and has no fighting spirit. Her instincts told her that the meteor needed to be quiet, and she stood silently to the side.

"Did Pan ask you to come to me?" After a while, Luke asked to Yin.

He didn't turn his head, his eyes still looking at the square.

"Yes...... Pan said that he had a big fight with you over the World Tree, so let me persuade you. While I support your point that the ancestors of the Glittering Men did commit crimes against the World Tree, there is a point in what Pan said......

The Elders' House of the Shimmering Gold is full of high-ranking old guys, and they will regard the Moonlight Court's accountability as an affront to the Sparkling Gold civilization.

If they don't mention the guilt, they will compensate the Moonlight Court. ”

Luke asked, "If I insist on holding the Glitter accountable, will you support me?"

Yin thought for a moment: "Of course I will support you. But ......"

Luke asked, "If the House of Elders of the Shimmering Gold were angry with me, and even listed me as an enemy, would you still be on my side?"

Yin thought for a while: "You're not wrong! What was wrong was that ancient war that shouldn't have happened. Of course, I will be on your side, and Pan and I will argue with the Elders' House of Lords, and if we make mistakes, we will be held responsible. ”

Luke couldn't help but smile, and he turned his head to look at Yin.

"That's what I said to you...... In the future, if something happens to you, no matter what you are facing, I will protect you. ”

Tone's face turned red when he heard Luke say such a promise to himself. She avoided Luke's gaze, trying to keep her smile from smiling.

"Why are you saying such things? Now is that you may be in trouble, and I'm here to help. I'm a shimmering gold, and I don't need your protection. ”

Only then did Luke realize that he had mistaken Tone by making a promise.

It's all about making Pan angry.

In order to pit himself, he actually pushed the sound over.

Luke didn't know how to explain to Yin, he couldn't say that your own brother was trying to harm you.

There is no convincing without evidence.

Luke had no choice but to say, "If it's a shimmering gold person, no one will dare to harm you?" Angels, dragons, demons, and Shadowclans are not afraid of you Glittering Gold. The world will be very chaotic in the future, so you must protect yourself. ”

Luke's forcible explanation seemed to have the opposite effect, and Yin's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.

"Thank you, I will protect myself, and you must protect yourself too. You said before...... When you can reveal your identity, you will be the first to tell me your real name.

Is now the time? ”

Luke was a little big at the moment.

"My true identity is still a secret for some reason. I'm sorry, I can't tell you my real name just yet.

When I can make it public, I promise to let you know as soon as possible. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you!"
