Chapter 82 The Empire Summons

Reggie invited the envoy from the Golden Eagle Kingdom and his attendants into the castle.

Unlike the envoys from the Bayer Kingdom, the Golden Eagle Kingdom attaches great importance to etiquette. Viscount Diakhtomitoctun also brought a gift, a specialty of the Golden Eagle Kingdom, Poseidon's crystal beads.

A cloth bag contains a dozen green and transparent beads, which are said to be unique treasures in Poseidon's palace.

Only the smartest sailors from the Golden Eagle Kingdom can find the palace of Poseidon, and only the bravest warriors from the Golden Eagle Kingdom can steal this precious orb back from the palace.

Bachelot held the beads, his hands trembling.

He whispered to Reggie that each crystal bead was worth more than two hundred gold coins.

Reggie held the bead with his hand and sighed sincerely: "I can see the glory of Poseidon from it."

"Viscount Victor, I suggest you look carefully at the sunlight," Diakhto said with a smile, "The brilliance of the temple is all contained in the orb."

Reggie held the crystal bead, looked at the sun twice, worked up some emotions, and exclaimed: "It's really beautiful!"

In fact, these are just glass beads. From the first moment he saw it, Reggie had already judged the texture of this thing.

It seems that the Golden Eagle Kingdom has mastered the technology of making glass and made a fortune through this technology.

A glass bead is worth two hundred gold coins. Who would have thought that the raw material of this thing is actually sand.

It seems that the Golden Eagle Kingdom not only sent warships, but also a way to make money.

Reggie once again expressed his gratitude to the envoy, and after a simple lunch, the two parties got down to business.

"I'm sorry for my poor greeting, Viscount Mitocton. I think you also know that Shattering Snow City is in a very difficult situation."

"I understand the situation of Broken Snow City, and it is precisely for this reason that I came to send the kingdom's call," Diakhto stood up solemnly and said to Reggie, "Our king already knows what happened to Broken Snow City

, I don’t want to say too many verbose words, Viscount Victor, are you and your people willing to raise the flag of the Golden Eagle and join the powerful Golden Eagle Empire?”

Reggie had already guessed his intention and wanted to gain a territory without losing any blood. The approach of the Golden Eagle Country seemed to be more intelligent than that of the Bayer Country.

He also stood up and solemnly said to Diahto, "I am willing to accept the call of His Majesty the King. It is a supreme honor for me and my people to be able to raise the flag of the Golden Eagle Kingdom over the Snowy City.

only……"

There was a hint of worry on Reggie's face, and Diachto asked with concern: "Your Excellency, do you have something to hide?"

Reggie nodded and said: "I do have some concerns. As everyone knows, I am an expelled stateless lord. I am worried that my identity will affect the glory of the Golden Eagle Empire."

Diahto smiled and said: "Lord, you are worrying too much. I just said that our king knows everything that has happened to you. The Golden Eagle Empire still opens its arms to you. Please turn the pain into flowing clouds."

, let them disappear with the wind."

"Uh, Liuyun..."

What a hypocritical guy. What's the use of saying such beautiful words at this time?

Reggie was silent for a moment, and he decided to ask a substantive question: "Viscount Mitocton, I mean, in what form will the king accept me and my people? If it is as a prisoner and a slave,

, I think I may need to think more carefully."

"Your Excellency, there is no need to worry about you. The kingdom has launched a summons, and it will naturally bring due sincerity."

Diahto listed the conditions for the Golden Eagle Kingdom, with a total of four main contents.

First, the entire territory of Broken Snow City was included in the territory of the Golden Eagle Nation, and Reginald Victor and his people swore allegiance to the Golden Eagle Nation.

Second, the Golden Eagle Nation provides economic assistance and military protection to Broken Snow City. Any country that invades Broken Snow City is equivalent to declaring war on the Golden Eagle Nation.

Third, to retain Reginald Victor's title and lord status, the Golden Eagle Kingdom will also arrange a consul and thirty officials to assist Reggie in managing Shattered Snow City, and will also send three thousand soldiers to protect it.

The safety of Shattered Snow City.

Fourth, Broken Snow City must devote 60% of its tax revenue to the Golden Eagle Kingdom every year.

Reggie didn't raise any objections to the first three conditions. When it came to the fourth condition, Reggie was somewhat hesitant.

Diachto saw Reggie's intention. He touched his mustache and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, is the 60% figure a bit unacceptable?"

"Yes...a little bit."

"But you also need to know that this place is far away from the Kingdom's mainland. Our fleet traveled for four days on the sea to reach Broken Snow City. On the way, we had to withstand wind and waves, and at the same time beware of pirates. The Kingdom is Broken Snow City.

Syracuse has paid so much, and we must prove one thing to the Kingdom that it is all worth it."

"But this year, you also know our situation..."

"Don't worry, Your Excellency," Diahto said with a smile, "The king has exempted Xuexue City from this year's tribute, and also sent 100,000 pounds of food. As long as the lord is willing to serve the kingdom, there will be more food in the future.

It will be delivered continuously.”

Reggie stood up excitedly, held the messenger's hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Viscount Diachtomi Toctun, you are the most distinguished guest of Broken Snow City. You have brought the kingdom's treasures to Broken Snow City.

The summons also brought a new dawn to Broken Snow City."

Diakhto smiled and said: "Viscount Victor, do you agree?"

Reggie nodded vigorously.

Diakhto held Reggie's hand tightly and said: "Welcome, Lord, we will be colleagues from now on."

The two hugged tightly for a while, and then continued to discuss serious matters.

"Your Excellency, if you have no objections, I hope to hold a brief ceremony in Broken Snow City tomorrow. I will read the king's edict in front of all the residents, and at the same time personally present you with the flag of the Golden Eagle Kingdom."

Reggie said: "Viscount Mitocton, can you give me one more day to make more preparations? Although Suixue City is poor, we must show respect for the empire in the face of such an important day.

.”

Diakhto nodded and said: "Everything is as you wish, Lord. Now please allow me to tell the soldiers on the battleship the good news."

"Why go back to the battleship?" Reggie stretched out his arms and said, "Let all the soldiers come to the city. I want to hold a grand banquet for everyone!"

Diakhto declined politely: "When the golden eagle flag flies over Broken Snow City, our warriors are qualified to set foot on your territory. This is respect for your lord, and also respect for all the residents of Broken Snow City."

The two of them were polite again, and Reggie led everyone to send Diahto outside the city. Diahto waved goodbye: "Your Excellency, I will come again tomorrow to discuss the details of the ceremony with you."

Reggie smiled and said: "The door to Broken Snow City is always open for you."

After sending Diahto away, Jiawen could no longer suppress his excitement. He directly blocked Reggie's way, knelt down on one knee and said: "Sir, I ask you to carefully consider the requirements of the Golden Eagle Kingdom. They lied.

If they deceive you, they will send you and Shattering Snow City to the bottomless abyss."

Reggie quickly pulled up Jiawen and whispered: "Don't be like this again. It makes me very embarrassed. I have no intention of agreeing to their conditions. Even if they didn't lie, those conditions are fatal. If they send in thirty

With officials and three thousand soldiers, wouldn’t I become a puppet to be slaughtered?”

Jiawen looked at Reggie in surprise and said, "Then why did you just..."

Reggie said: "Let's go to the watchtower to talk about some things."



Diachto took a small boat and sailed slowly towards the fleet. The army commander sitting next to him, Tsunami Knight Maxwell, asked: "Lord Viscount, it seems that everything is going smoothly."

"Yeah, it went so smoothly," Diakhto's cheek twitched, "It didn't even go well."

Maxwell was surprised: "Are you doubting Reggie Victor?"

"Of course I have to doubt him. Don't forget, he used the trick of pretending to surrender to capture the prince of Bair," Diakhto said with a gloomy expression. "He agreed too simply. There must be a conspiracy in it."

"What should we do? Send troops overnight to attack Broken Snow City?"

"Don't be too impatient. You have also seen that the terrain of Broken Snow City is very special. It is typically easy to defend but difficult to attack," Diakhto said after pondering for a long time. "But we can bring the soldiers to the shore first. Of course, in

Without disturbing Viscount Victor, sneak it ashore."
