"Marquis Byron, your words may be close to the meaning of my father, but from what I know about my father, his true intention is not here, he must mean something else, what do you think is the true intention of his father?"

Byron suddenly fell into thought when he heard this, but after a long while, his brow was still furrowed, and he obviously didn't come up with a reason.

Seeing this, the eldest prince did not have the heart to continue to ask, until the carriage came to the mansion of the protector, and the two withdrew from their respective thoughts, and after getting off the carriage one after another, and after being led by the people in the palace to a cave, the eldest prince and Byron respectfully saluted towards the dark cave.

"Uncle, my nephew has come to see you, and I ask you to come forward to solve your doubts."

There was a sound in the cave, not flat, not in a hurry, but the delicate Byron still heard a little joy in it, obviously in the heart of the protector, the eldest prince has an extremely important position.

"Come in."

The two of them heard the sound and walked into the cave one after another, and they were greeted by a feeling of dampness, mixed with a thick magic fluctuation, as soon as the two of them entered, they immediately felt that their bodies and minds became much more relaxed, and the thoughts that were entwined in their minds gradually calmed down under this rich magic fluctuation.

The eldest prince has come here a lot, and he doesn't feel the meaning, but the Marquis of Byron, as a strong man, can naturally feel something different from it, that feeling is like being in the deep vast ocean of magic, and although the protector in it does not see his true face, but the faint huge fluctuations make him feel awe, and at the same time, there is also a look of extreme longing in his eyes.

The two of them, each with their own thoughts, slowly came to the bottom of the cave, but what appeared in front of them was not the Lord Protector himself, but a looming phantom, this situation immediately made the Marquis Byron realize something, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Master, have you broken through to that level?"

The phantom slowly became condensed, and the magic power fluctuations emitted began to slowly converge, until the magic power fluctuations disappeared, and the old man in front of him slowly opened his eyes as if he was an ordinary person, but it was also at this moment that a majestic spiritual power flashed from the old man's eyes like lightning, and then the old man's answer was heard.

"You're right, I've really stepped into that realm."

The Marquis Byron was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately congratulated.

"Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master."

The old man looked a little flat, and asked after glancing at the eldest prince.

"What do you want to come over in person?"

The eldest prince hurriedly said the doubts in his heart, and when the words fell, the Lord Protector closed his eyes slightly, as if he was in thought, and the two did not dare to disturb and stayed quietly in place, until the eyes of the Lord Protector opened again, but the next words made the two a little confused.

"Emperor Chiyan is stalling for time."

The eldest prince was puzzled and asked.

"Why is my father delaying time, is he preparing for battle?"

The Protector shook his head slowly, his gaze seemed to penetrate the barrier in front of him, and he saw the Chiyan Emperor who was thousands of meters away.

"He is a thoughtful person, he never does things that he is not sure of, and the reason why he mentions the negotiation between the elves and the dwarves is nothing more than to make things bigger."

"Why is that?" The eldest prince was even more puzzled.

Seeing the confusion in the eldest prince's eyes, the Lord Protector asked rhetorically.

"Who do you think will benefit the most when things get to the point of going to war?"

The words of the Protector made the eldest prince fall into thought, in his opinion, once the Red Flame Empire and the Divine Sect Empire went to war, it would definitely not be a situation that the empire was willing to see.

And if war is unavoidable, the beneficiaries will be the surrounding principalities, or other empires, because war means a large amount of gold investment, and to maintain a war, the cost of gold can be described as astronomical, and then each principality and empire can make a lot of income from it, as for the Chiyan Empire, it will be mired in debt.

This was the first thought in the eldest prince's mind, but he didn't think that was what his uncle would mean by the Protector's Guild, so he thought about it again, trying to find the true purpose.

But as he thought about it more and more, his head was a little insufficient, because in his mind, in addition to this, neither the Chiyan Empire nor the Divine Cult Empire could be the beneficiary, even if the Red Flame Empire failed in this war, and the Divine Cult Empire once again established its majesty on the mainland, but for the investment in the war, the majesty and respect obtained were not one-tenth of the war, after all, deterrence could not become a substantial thing, and it would not be taken into account for the big empire at all.

Thinking of this, the eldest prince was a little pounding his chest, his brows were tightened, and his head was boiling like boiling water, and the protector who was watching all this did not show the slightest anger, but lightly touched the eldest prince's forehead, and then the sense of anxiety gradually disappeared into invisibility.

The recovered eldest prince looked annoyed and blamed himself, and shook his head.

"Uncle, I really don't know who will benefit from the war once it starts, and it seems that gaining majesty and deterrence is more inadequate than the huge investment in the war."

The Lord Protector nodded, and did not refute the words of the eldest prince, but followed the other party's words.

"Your idea is good, the deterrent power can only be aimed at those small principalities, and it will not have much effect on the empire, but your vision only sees the present, but you have not looked back on the history of this continent, when you understand the past of the formation of this continent, you will understand what I mean."

The eldest prince was said by his uncle to protect the country, and he didn't understand what the other party meant, the history of the continent The eldest prince has also studied, this is a compulsory course as an imperial prince, but the history of the continent is already in the past, what does it have to do with the current situation, can history still change the crisis of the Chiyan Empire at this moment?

His head was dizzy again, and when the prince really couldn't think of a reason, he gave up thinking and asked his uncle.

"Uncle, my nephew is really a little stupid, please explain."

The Lord Protector smiled, his eyes also fell into some kind of memory, and as his voice slowly remembered in the cave, a continental secret also came to the ears of the eldest prince and the Marquis of Byron.
