[Volume VIII: Transforming into a Demon] Chapter 33 Romenas's Determination
The Council of Elders is the most mysterious institution in the empire, and it is also the most ostentatious. Directly opposite the palace is where the Council of Elders is located.
After Ye Ze was brought back by the inspector, he was locked up in a room alone. The environment of the room was quite good, and could even be described as luxurious. Even the plate holding the fruit was made of sterling silver, and there would be a dedicated person every day.
Yeze cleans the room. Except for the lack of freedom and the extra Sanyuan pills for each meal, Yeze is almost like staying in a hotel.
However, it can be said that the hotel in Yeze was like a year. It was not until almost ten days later that Romenas came. After entering the room, he sat down on the chair and looked at Yeze with a little amusement.
"You old man has so many things to do, you thought you didn't see me anymore."
Looking at Romenas sitting in front of him, Ye Ze felt resentful.
Romenas smiled and said: "For people like you, I will never lack time."
Looking at Romenas' face, Ye Ze suddenly felt confused.
I had been holding back my energy to see Romenas, and I had rehearsed it countless times in my mind. But when I saw him, I didn't know what to say.
Yeze himself would not believe such a sensational thing if he had not experienced it personally. Now that he is talking without proof, how can he convince the iron-blooded emperor in front of him.
"Your Majesty the Emperor." Yeze sighed and asked, "What is the reason that makes you give up the war with the Nanyan Empire?"
Romenas smiled hoarsely and said: "Set told me that you made up a wonderful story to prevent the war."
"That story is true." Ye Ze said helplessly.
Romenas waved his hand and said: "Whether your story is true or not, it is impossible to stop this war. Even if Zerbister is standing in front of me now, I will not change my current mind."
"Why?" Romenas' reaction surprised Ye Ze. He thought he would tease him like Seth did, but he didn't expect to give such an answer.
"Because of the Bridge of Dead Souls!" Romenas said quietly: "The two empires can coexist for thousands of years, and the existence of the Strait of Dead Souls is the fundamental factor. Once this natural chasm no longer exists, the two empires will definitely have a war.
A continent can only accommodate one empire."
"Are you going to put the lives of thousands of soldiers at risk for your ambition?" Ye Ze asked angrily: "You should know that once a war breaks out, more than one or two legions will die. And the grassland people will definitely die.
You and the barbarians are eyeing each other covetously, so you are not afraid that when we fight, they will make moves behind you? It’s just a broken bridge, why are you so confused?!"
"Hahaha..." Romenus laughed heartily. After a while, he said seriously to Ye Ze: "Let me ask you, do you know what the mainland looked like before the Beishang Empire appeared?"
"I don't understand history!" Ye Ze rolled his eyes at Romenas angrily.
"Dark Ages!" Romenus didn't mind Yeze's attitude at all, and said leisurely: "In that era, death was a common thing. There was no trust and mutual help between big and small forces, and between people, only interests.
and massacre.
Later, it was the ancestors of my Snow family who established the Northern Frost Empire on top of the bones of the forest, which ended the war and made the northern continent peaceful for thousands of years. The situation in the southern continent is basically the same.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. It would be fine if it is still blocked by the strait, but now there is the Bridge of Dead Souls. Even if Yanqueluo and I stop fighting, our descendants may not be able to hold back. Since there will be a war sooner or later, it will end as soon as possible.
A day's worth of blood..."
"You should keep these words to deceive others..." Ye Ze snorted disdainfully and said: "I admit that your words have some truth, but do you really have no other ideas in your heart? Unify the continent and achieve unprecedented achievements.
Hegemony. Will the Iron-Blooded Emperor Romenas resist such a temptation?"
"Hahahahaha..." Romenas laughed again: "What you said is a bit presumptuous, but I don't hate it."
"I am not attacking you." Ye Ze said: "The bridge of dead souls is a thousand meters wide, which is enough for you to start a legion war. But it is not a real battlefield after all, it is a narrow place. If we really want to fight, God knows how long it will take for you to win.
Negative. The Nanyan Empire is not a grassland tribe. If you can capture the Bridge of Dead Souls within ten years, I will lose my head to you."
"Haha, you are being conservative." Romenas chuckled and said: "The military strength of the two empires is about the same. Let alone ten years, even twenty years, the two armies are still inseparable.
Open the Bridge of Dead Souls."
Yeze frowned and said: "In that case, why do you insist on fighting such a war that wastes people and money and has no value?!"
"Because I don't plan to fight for decades." Romenas' eyes flashed: "Within a year, the cavalry of the Northern Frost Empire will surely set foot on the land of Nanyan!"
"I admire your ambition." Yeze looked disdainful.
"I don't mean to underestimate the Nanyan Empire." Romenus glanced at Yeze and pointedly said: "I will not underestimate the Ye family. Just one night of rain is enough to give my generals a headache.
Not to mention, there is also Night Breeze now. If you and your demon hunting group..."
"Don't pull me!" Yeze didn't want to fall into Romenas' trap, and said quickly: "The Ye family is the Ye family, and I am me. As for my demon hunting group, it is absolutely neutral. Don't forget, your precious daughter
Also in the hand of darkness."
"Yeze!" Romenus looked at Yeze with burning eyes, and said word by word: "To open the Bridge of Dead Souls within a year, I will definitely not just talk nonsense. If you are willing to help me, it won't even take a day.
Year."
"You think too highly of me." Yeze hummed.
"You think too low of yourself." Romenas said meaningfully: "What you did in Nanyan a year ago, I don't need to elaborate.
Even if you don't admit it, your right to speak in the Ye family will not be weaker than that of Ye Feng. Moreover, Shi Yuxuan of the Tulip Nanyan branch should have some 'friendship' with you.
The Tulip Business Association does not intervene in the dispute because the two empires are indistinguishable. But if there was only one empire, I think they would make appropriate changes. As for the Ye family...
As long as you are willing, I can guarantee you that the Ye family will still be the first family in the empire!"
"Your Majesty the Emperor..." Yeze smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that I wanted to persuade you at first."
"It doesn't matter who persuades whom, what matters is how to make the right decision." Romenas was aggressive and stared at Yeze without blinking.
Although Ye Ze was fed San Yuan Pills and was unable to gather Yuan Power, he was still a dark gold level strongman after all. Ordinary people would be a little softer when he saw it. But Romenus' aura suppressed Ye Ze's.
I feel no less inferior to those strong ones.
Yeze suddenly realized how stupid his attempt to persuade Romenas was.
"If what I told Seth is true, will you really not change your mind?" Yeze still wanted to make a final push and said: "You should also know that something happened in the two holy places. Is there something behind this? Is it possible?
You really don’t care?”
Romenas smiled and said: "As I said just now, the truth or falseness of that story is not important to me at all. The matters in the Holy Land have nothing to do with me either. To take a step back, if what you said is true, then this war
It’s even more inevitable.”
"Why?" Yeze frowned slightly.
Romenas said calmly: "Because, to fight against such a powerful enemy, we must unite all the forces that can be united on the continent, let alone have two commanders."
Ye Ze was silent for a long time and said quietly: "What if I must stop you?"
"How to stop it? Kill me?" Romenas smiled.
Ye Ze shook his head: "In my way."
"I said just now that you underestimated yourself, but now it seems that I was wrong." Romenas shook his head.
"It's not a good thing for young people to be too frivolous."
Romenas left, and Ye Ze sat in the room looking out the window and meditating.
It's because I'm too naive, and the Huairou method no longer works. Next, I can only use other methods.
Although Romenas didn't say it just now, we can still guess some of his plans.
He deliberately mentioned the barbarians and grassland tribes, but Romenas did not answer the question. In other words, Romenas must have had their thoughts on them.
They appeased the grassland tribes and even called them into Beishang's army, and then promised huge profits to let the barbarians stab the Nanyan Empire in the back...
Yanqueluo would definitely use the same method. However, Yeze still felt that Romenas would be better at it, and even tricked Yanqueluo into it...
Ye Ze held his chin and sighed.
I can't stay here anymore. After so many days, those guys should have taken some action.

"Surcock, what on earth is going on?!" Bashir furiously threw several letters into Surcock's face.
Since Julie left, Surcock has become the business helmsman of the Francis family. Although there is no amazing performance, he has always behaved well, making the family business stable, and Bashir is also very relieved about him.
I just never expected that something would go wrong during this critical period.
"Father, I really don't know." Surcock looked innocent and puzzled: "Our cooperation with Tulip has always been very good. Even if we make some small mistakes, we will be forgiven by the other party. But I don't know what happened this time.
, they suddenly suspended most of their cooperation. There were also problems with several ongoing businesses. For example, Fulia from Roscoe Province kept urging me to ask for payment for the food, otherwise they would not ship the goods.
.There were transfer cycles before, but this time..."
"I don't want to hear this!" Bashir said angrily: "Now that the war is coming, all kinds of military supplies and so on are opportunities to make a lot of money. If you can't solve these troubles as soon as possible, you can go to the stables and shovel horse manure for me.
Bar!!"
"Yes, father..." Surcock fled in panic, while Bashir was still breathing heavily.
Bashir didn't say anything, but he had already vaguely guessed something in his heart.
Manstein from the Tulip Business Association has a close relationship with Yeze. Not long ago, he sent a letter suggesting that he let Yeze go. He didn't respond, and the business immediately ran into problems. This annoying fat man has been taken over by Eli
Xi has been trained as a successor, and he has a strong voice in the business association. I want to find someone else, but I can't get around him...
Damn it, it’s that Ye Ze, he’s the one who causes trouble every time!!
Bashir was depressed to death, but he could still restrain himself to some extent, but Generalissimo Huget's reaction was much more violent.
Huget's only grandson is back.
