What Qiao Lu said makes sense. The price of two cities is not too high, not to mention that these two cities have been occupied by the wind demon for too long. If they can be used to exchange for a tributary country, it would be a good choice.
But Chris didn't want to believe Feng Mo, and he didn't even want to believe Joruus.
He consulted Edmund and Sandos for their ideas, and Sandos supported Chris. He believed that he should fight the wind demon to the end: "There is no place for evil demons in the land of Ryan. Hell is their best destination."
But Edmund was more inclined to negotiate peace: "Your Highness, our kingdom is riddled with holes, and this war cannot be delayed any longer. General Qiaolu is right, we should accept Feng Mo's peace talks."
Chris was a little confused. There was no doubt that Edmund was wiser than Sandos.
After so many arguments, he wanted to hear Reggie's opinion again, but found that Reggie was talking to Dorothy.
Chris did not disturb Reggie. It was not until Dorothy left that Chris asked, "You should have heard what I just said. Should I change my decision?"
Reggie rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, trying to hit his spirit.
"I will not change my view on the evil demon, but General Qiaolu's suggestion can be adopted. If you can get two cities without spending a single soldier, you can consider peace talks with the wind demon."
Looking at Reggie's pale face, Chris realized that something serious had happened. He walked back to the camp anxiously. After careful consideration, he accepted Long Mud's conditions.
Lombard was so excited that he immediately sent someone a gift, seventeen carefully polished rubies.
Ruby is an iconic gift to the royal family, and seventeen is the iconic number of the royal family. These forgotten traditions have been completely preserved by Feng Mo.
Chris accepted the gift, and now it was time to talk about what mattered most to him.
"You only want two territories, Zishan County and Huguang City?"
"There are also distant mountains and forests, my lord." Rommund had already changed his name to Chris.
The distant mountain forest is a purely deserted land, and it is also on the border between the Kingdom of Lane and the Kingdom of Dill. Chris doesn't mind that much about this land.
"That means you are willing to give up Baimian City and Nanxing County?"
"Yes." He agreed, but Mulder's expression was a little ugly.
"When can I get these two cities?"
"Actually, you can get the city...there is only one southern county at the moment."
Chris showed a ferocious smile: "I thought you could hold on for a little longer, but I didn't expect you to give up your lies so quickly."
"I didn't tell you any lies," Long Mulder hurriedly explained, "White Cotton City has been robbed by the Demonic Orcs."
Chris was startled and turned to look at Joruus. Joruus raised his lips slightly and whispered: "I have already guessed one thing, and it seems that I can guess the second one."
Chris said: "That's fine. There were originally four battles to be fought, but it seems that there is only one left. King of the Wind God Kingdom, are you willing to take back White Cotton City with me?"
"I am willing to serve you, Your Majesty the King, but the descendants of Fengshen cannot stay away from their homeland. You should know the reason, so I am afraid that I cannot follow you on the expedition."
Chris frowned and said: "So, there is another promise that cannot be fulfilled?"
"I will send my soldiers. I have two thousand soldiers. They are not descendants of the God of Wind. They can follow you to fight."
"I think you should go in person. This is a great opportunity for you to show your loyalty," Chris smiled. "Master Victor can help you."
Everyone looked at Reggie, but Reggie was silently in a daze. He had been absent-minded since entering the camp.
"Lord Victor? King Shattered Snow? Emperor Reginald? Can you hear me?"
Reggie rubbed his eyebrows again, and it became increasingly difficult to concentrate: "I have a way to make His Majesty Rommund leave his homeland, just like Duke Wenderson, and go wherever he wants to go."
Long Mud restrained the urge to curse, bowed slightly and said: "Thank you for your help, Emperor Reginald."
"Just a thank you is too insincere. I need your help now. How much do you know about the Mud Demon?"
Long Mud was startled, and his two thick eyebrows knitted together. It seemed that even the Wind Demon didn't want to hear the name of the Mud Demon.
"As far as I know, all mud demons live on a small island, and that island is under the control of the Hades Wizard."
Reggie said: "That island is also one of my territories."
"Our information may be a little limited. So, the hell wizard is also your subject?"
Reggie nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong with saying that."
"Since you asked, it must be the Mud Demon who has done evil things in your territory."
"That's not true," Reggie tried his best to keep smiling, "I'm just curious about the mud demons. They have neither strong bodies nor extraordinary wisdom. Why can they survive to this day?"
"Don't underestimate the descendants of Swamp. They are the most evil creatures, the great God of Wind. I really don't want to mention these devils." Long Mud clasped his hands tightly and prayed to the God of Wind for a long time.
I really didn’t expect that the mud demon would have such a great power to intimidate the Lord of the Wind Demon.
After the prayer, Long Mud calmed down a little: "Since our ancestors migrated here, the Fengshen clan has no connection with the descendants of Swamp. I don't know much about them, but I have heard my fathers talk about their many hardships.
Evil deeds.”
Reggie said: "Who is Swamp you are talking about?"
Long Mud said: "It is the surname of the Lord of the Mire, who is also the leader of the Mud Demon. I have some ancient books about the Mire Clan. I hope it can help you. As far as I know, the Hades Wizard is the only one in the world who can restrict
I hope you can treat him kindly."
Reggie inquired about some more things, but the information provided by Colon Mulder was very limited, so Reggie could only place his hope on his ancient books.
Joruus took this opportunity to draft a surrender document with ease. He was so familiar with this type of document that he wrote all the terms clearly in just two pages.
Because he could not leave Huguang City for a long time, after Chris confirmed it, Longmude immediately signed the document and returned to Huguang City to make preparations for the expedition. Only after Longmude left did Chris have the opportunity to ask.
The reason for the matter.
"You have been haunted all this time, what happened?"
"Tuodao City was attacked by mud demons," Reggie felt as if his head was about to explode. "At least five hundred people died in the city."
"Hurry up and find the Hell Witch... Oh my god, this is really bad!"
The Hades Wizard still remains in a vegetative state.
"I shouldn't have let him leave for so long," Reggie stood up and said, "You can only rely on yourself to fight in the future. Remember my words, never trust evil spirits."
