Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

"Understood? This is a big trouble."

Even if her temperament is as cold as a dragon lady, her tone is also solemn.

Kant glanced at Tina, and Tina nodded slightly to him, with worry flashing in her eyes.

He asked Lily, "Are these dragons... dead?"

"I don't know... Their state is very strange, but what is confirmed is that even if they are not dead, their state is very bad, and Long Island has prepared for the worst."

Dragon Island can monitor the general status and orientation of every giant dragon in the world.

Therefore, it is possible to detect the loss of contact with the Dragon Clan investigation team in real time.

Because the dragon's household registration system is unique in the world.

After the Dragon Emperor ascended the throne this year, the first big move was to go to the sky and enter the earth. All the giant dragons scattered around the world were found, sampled and recorded one by one, registered the identity and property of each dragon, and forced them to be included. The Dragon Kingdom is under the jurisdiction, and those who refuse to accept it will be full of dictatorship iron fists and enforce it.

Although the process has many twists and turns, and even almost aroused the dragon transformation, in the long run, such a move will be beneficial for the future. The Dragon Emperor has successfully made the soul imprints of all surviving giant dragons into soul fire dragon lamps, which are stored in the Dragon Fire Hall. , which means that Dragon Island knows exactly what's going on with any dragon in the world.

Such big data and a complete household registration system eventually became the cornerstone of the rise of Longdao Defense.

Through big data, the Dragon Emperor knows the situation of the giant dragons well. Through certain analysis and calculation, we can know which giant dragon's economic status and demand level, which young giant dragon cannot build a lair, and which middle-aged giant dragon To get married, a large amount of treasure is urgently needed. Now that we know the demand, we can absorb fresh blood at the minimum cost, so that the human resources department can quickly and accurately find the most suitable dragon selection.

In this way, the new labor positions created by the expanding scale of Longdao Defense will be filled by dragons continuously.

As for the commission, according to the usual practice, the company will take three or seven.

After all, Dragon Island Defense is a public welfare organization that serves the interests of all dragon compatriots.

As for the 37% split, how to use the Dragon Island's natural housing prices, expensive insurance items, as well as various scale care, consulting services, equipment customization and luxury purchases to get back the 70% of the split? This is His Majesty the Dragon Emperor. Not enough business secrets for outsiders.

By the way, it is said that the next century-old strategic plan of Long Island is to vigorously encourage fertility. The dragon defense is responsible for allocating nests and giving rewards, from breaking shells to schooling to adulthood to work to death in battle.

As for monitoring the situation of the giant dragons through the Dragon Fire Soul Lamp, it is also to pay attention to the implementation of war missions in real time, and to promote follow-up medical and insurance services in a timely manner.

The side effect is to pay attention to the safety of people's lives.

… results come in handy at times like this.

This is the second time that the Dragon Fire Hall has been shaken recently - not long ago, during the siege of Danfeng Lucerne, the soul lamps of the entire Dragon Alliance were completely extinguished within a few minutes.

Now it's coming out again.

And it's in Goethe.

And it was missing in action explicitly against Kant.

Kant smacked his lips: "I've had a lot of black pot lately... Playing ass?"

The parrot had a serious face, forcing himself not to laugh out loud.

Kant glanced at Tina and said to Longniang: "We are completely innocent in this matter. You know, Goethe today has experienced war and national strength, and has no ability to quickly annihilate a training team in a short period of time. Su's dragon army...and we have no such motive if our deal is happy."

"Of course Goethe can't do it." Lily said lightly, "but you have such suspicions and motives."

Kant spread his hands and said, "But I have an alibi."

Archduke Goethe and the officials of the inner court, who had been listening in, shook their heads slightly—even if they stayed with Princess Tina and the Scarlet Queen for one night, how could they both be witnesses?

"Indeed." Then they heard Long Niang say, "You came to me last night."

"…"

The eyes of the archduke and Goethe officials became nuanced.

The parrot across the table nodded and said, "He came to me on purpose last night and stayed with me for a while. Many elves in the expedition have seen it with their own eyes."

"…"

The Goethe's gaze has changed from subtle to shocked.

-Kant what are you doing, Kant!

"But this is not enough proof to get rid of suspicion... Or, the key to this matter is not where you went last night and who can prove it."

Lily said: "International affairs, disputes between countries, follow the law of the jungle, not justifications and theories in court. There is no arbiter, and force is the only applicable law."

"The current situation is that the dragon is missing in Goethe's territory, and the dragon council believes that Goethe must give an explanation, they don't care what alibi or no motive, they only want the result, and they also think that Goethe has and must give A result of the dragon race...you understand what I mean?"

Kant nodded slowly.

got it.

Because Goethe was a weak country, and even had just been beaten by the elves, the arrogant dragons thought that there was no need to make any sense. The dragon disappeared in Goethe's territory, and Goethe had to give an explanation, even if it was illegal entry, even if It is menacing, even to investigate or even blame Kant.

But our people are missing, you have to give a clear explanation.

Because it is true that there is no reason and justice between countries.

If the place where the dragons disappeared was within the territory of Duskmoon, the dragons might still send a note and negotiate with the elven authorities, but they would certainly not be so aggressive.

"Weak countries have no diplomacy, I understand this very well."

Including the fact that Lily was able to tell the truth in front of the Goethe people at this time, it was also the same reason - how could she take care of the feelings of mortals who were like ants.

Kant said sternly: "So, what is the ultimatum of Long Island?"

Lily turned her head to look at Santos, and the foreign marketing manager of Long Island was also very uneasy.

"Conservative giant dragon elders are clamoring to summon the giant dragon legion and prepare to maintain the dignity of the dragon clan. According to their ideas, that is, the way of doing things in the ancient times, the clan people are attacked and their life and death are unknown. Go to the place where the incident happened, find out the truth, and clear the enemy."

Long Niang said: "Don't get me wrong, what they say to find out the truth is not that dozens of dragons act as temporary detectives at the attack site, but to take all the means they think should be taken, including interrogating all the people they think should be interrogated, To take over the administrative and military power of the locality and even the country by force, forcing the local ruler to do everything in his power to assist the dragon in all investigations that the dragon deems reasonable..."

The Goethes present have all changed color.

What is the difference between occupying and destroying a country?

Kant said coldly: "It's a miracle that the dragon has not been exterminated yet."

Parrot said: "It's not surprising, 'all the means they think should be used', including interrogation, raids, looting and extortion in the name of investigation, but also transactions, negotiations, discussions and even privately begging, as for what method to take, It depends on who the target is."

Kant nodded and said, "That's why you want to use Goethe as a soft persimmon?"

"This is just the action they want to take in theory. Only in this way can it be revealed to the mainland that the glory of the dragon has not dissipated... It is understandable."

Lily's voice was a little hurried: "But they are a little afraid of your forbidden spell after all, and the reformists headed by His Majesty the Dragon Emperor are also trying their best to mediate, but in any case, it is an indisputable fact that a dragon mission is missing in Goethe territory. The face of the whole family is not about the interests of exchange and the will of the ruler can be changed, even His Majesty the Dragon Emperor cannot fight against this kind of public opinion, so..."

Having said that, she closed her eyes, and her tone fluctuated greatly.

"If this is not handled well... war might happen."

There was silence in the hall.

war.

No one understood the horror of the word better than the Goethes present.

Under the attack of the elves, they retreated steadily, with heavy casualties, and the national strength was exhausted. If it weren't for Kant, at this moment, Danfeng Lucerne would have been occupied by elves, and those present were either liquidated as war criminals, or had died for the country, beautiful Goethe has since fallen into ruin...

And now, another cloud of war is coming.

People's eyes can't help but glance at Kant. Even the courtiers who can appear here are all clever and sensible people. It's human nature, and almost subconsciously, there is still a little weird feeling-because this time. The matter, in essence, stemmed from the oath signed by Kant with the dragon.

Therefore, it attracted the wrath and investigation of the dragons.

Therefore, the Dragon Mission was inexplicably attacked and disappeared.

As soon as the negative emotions are born, they are extinguished by reason and conscience. They know that Goethe is not qualified to blame and dissatisfaction... But it still feels a little strange.

- Kant's eyes swept across the faces of these people quickly.

Then he let out a long breath.

He glanced at Tina beside him, the princess's eyes were as gentle as always, but this gentleness was tempered by the fire of war, and it was as tough as steel, revealing calmness and trust.

"That's it."

This matter started because of him, and of course he has to solve it.

He stood up, looked at the grand duke who had been expressionless, and said, "It seems that I caused trouble for Goethe this time, but don't worry, as I just said, I will solve it."

Archduke Reknos looked at him for a moment, frowning.

"I am very angry."

he said slowly.

Tina said in surprise: "Father..."

Kant squeezed her hand.

"Kant, you and my daughter met overseas and formed a relationship. You both experienced the Huisha change together. You joined our war for her, guarded our people, and saved our country."

"We did our best to help you as you did us not long ago."

"It is difficult and sad to list each other's kindness like an account and confirm the responsibility. Kant, you should be ready to become a family with us."

The Archduke said slowly, "You should tell me—let's settle this matter."

Kant was slightly startled.

A warm touch came from his arm, and Tina hugged his arm, smiling softly and brightly.

Then, Kant showed a self-deprecating smile and shook his head.

"Okay," he said. "Let's fix this."

"A good start," said the Grand Duke. "Then, Your Highness Kant, the esteemed Great Forbidden Magician, I temporarily grant you the power of the Goethe monarch in the name of Grand Duke Teddaril."

"Only on this occasion, your words and attitudes will represent Goethe's will. I ask you to carefully uphold these powers and responsibilities, speak to the representatives of the Dragon Clan, and send Goethe's voice to Dragon Island."

When he said this, he said softly: "Please, let the dragons also see Goethe's dignity."

Kant froze for a moment, shook his head and sighed.

The Grand Duke asked, "What's wrong?"

"Speaking on behalf of a country..." Kant sighed, "It affects my performance."

But he still turned to look at Lily and Santos, the representatives of the dragon.

Santos hurried forward and motioned Lily to stand up.

"You have heard it all," Kant said, "I hereby tell all the citizens of the Dragon Country that from now on, Goethe claims the right to the territorial airspace, and all the skies over the country's territory and territorial sea are owned by Goethe's sovereignty, and everything has not been declared and approved. All air entry activities are regarded as illegal intrusions, and will be treated as hostile acts. We will attack and eliminate them mercilessly, and all consequences should be borne by the intruders.

Santos' face changed.

This euphemistic diplomatic rhetoric is…

If Long Island dares to come, he will start a war.

Then the marketing manager of Dragon Defense wanted to understand why Kant was sighing just now, saying that speaking on behalf of the country would affect his performance - Damn, if you dare to speak to Long Dao in a private name, you will directly swear or swear it is more ugly, More rude?

Kant continued: "In addition, regarding the disappearance of a national who entered your country illegally, Goethe, in the spirit of humanitarianism and humanistic care, attaches great importance to this. We are willing to provide assistance within our capacity, and at the request and suggestion of your country. We will use an efficient judicial system to track down the murderer, try our best to rescue your nationals, and inform you of the progress and results of the investigation.”

"However, since your missing nationals are illegal entry and are not protected by Goethe law, the assistance we provide is not free, and you should bear the cost. Illegal entry will be sanctioned by Goethe law. It is recommended that your country be illegal Those entering the country must pay fines according to law.”

After he finished speaking, he spread his hands and said, "Above, please inform the Dragon Emperor and the Giant Dragon Council."

Santos smiled wryly.

Lily shook her head and said, "The old dragons are going to die of anger."

Kant said indifferently: "After hearing the 'investigation method' they envisaged, we will also die of anger, and we will not be indecent. Goethe is not a dough that they can knead casually."

Santos whispered: "His Royal Highness Kant, if a war is triggered..."

Tina said first: "Your ambassador, territorial sovereignty is the most basic respect between countries. We ask your country's giant dragon not to enter without permission. Does it hurt the dragon's face? We are willing to help your country find the missing citizens. , isn't it enough?"

"If the elders of the dragon clan think that if we did not immediately open the city to surrender, accept all the orders of the dragon unconditionally, and make huge compensation for the missing dragon, it will hurt the face of the dragon clan, then we will go to war! There are no elves. You are too much!"

—The elves, who were not as overbearing as the dragon, glared at her.

"That's what we mean," said Kant. "Goethe is a small child, and he is not to be taken lightly. If necessary, we will prove it to you with our blood—our land, your blood."

Lily shook her head and said, "It doesn't make sense to tell me this cruel thing... Are you sure you want to convey it like this?"

"Yes." Kant said, "I'm sure, if the elders of the dragon clan have forgotten the power of the forbidden spell falling from the sky because they slept for too long, then I don't mind letting them relive it."

Santos really didn't want to fight, he whispered: "His Royal Highness, be a little more euphemistic, Goethe can't bear the second war, especially the crisis of the elves has not been resolved..."

- It means to be careful to lose both sides, and the elves take advantage of the fire to rob.

He was so busy that he forgot that no matter how low the voice was, he could still hear it with the power of the elf's ear.

The Phoenix King, who was sitting on the side, said indifferently: "Don't forget that the same is true for your Dragon Island."

The elves were suddenly amazed, Santos showed disbelief, not to mention the Goethes, that group of courtiers almost stared out their eyes.

—Wait wait wait, what did the Phoenix King just say?

Dragon Island too?

what is this?

- Support Goethe?

They looked at Kant in amazement, and their eyes became more complicated.

—I really have you, Mrs. Consort!

An elf behind him whispered, "Your Majesty..."

The Phoenix King looked around, with a dignified expression and noble temperament, the king's eyes finally stayed on Kant: "His Royal Highness Kant, Muyue respects the strength and achievements of the Forbidden Magic Mage, and the best spellcasters in the world look forward to working with you. , the royal court is willing to make an exception for you, and even only requires Goethe's nominal submission - the content of the Valentine's negotiation is always valid, and our door is always open for you."

This time, even Long Niang Lily showed a stunned expression.

No one expected that when Goethe faced the crisis and challenge from the Dragon Clan, Mu Yue, the most unlikely enemy to help, stretched out his hand and expressed his attitude with a clear-cut attitude!

But then, smart people quickly thought of the elves' intentions.

As expected of the Phoenix King.

The twilight moon war sequence has been extremely perfect, and it is only as an extra-staff corps to support operations as strong as a giant dragon. Unlike small countries, who use giant dragon mercenaries as a strategic weapon to decide the outcome, elves don’t pay much attention, especially Danfeng Lucerne. In the battle, so many dragon knights were hanged and beaten by Kant, it goes without saying which side is more valuable - and in addition to his superb alchemy skills, Kant also has forbidden spells.

Being able to support Goethe at a time like this is guaranteed to make a profit.

At least at least, it can also allow His Royal Highness Kant, who is very affectionate, to write down this favor, and ease the recent tension between the two countries, so as to gain a first-mover advantage for the next negotiation.

If the dragons really have a convulsion in their heads and resort to war...

That doesn't matter.

If Kant asks for help and is willing to agree to the conditions, then Muyue is also willing to interfere, then he will gain a powerful Forbidden Magic Mage and Alchemy Master, and establish the ultimate hegemony that the human empire can never challenge.

If you don't want to interfere...then don't interfere.

Watching Goethe and Longdao lose both, and then Muyue went up to make a profit, it was also a joy.

Either way.

And the price is just to show support with lip service.

As for whether the dragons will be dissatisfied - do elves need to care about this? How can you be dissatisfied!

After thinking about this, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

As expected of the Phoenix King, the calculations are so deep.

But after sighing, the humans and elves suddenly remembered something.

and many more!

Valentine's negotiations remain unchanged?

—Including that marriage proposal?

People and elves continued to understand the faces of their companions, and their hearts suddenly trembled. From the perspective of politics and national interests, it was normal for the Phoenix King to choose to support Goethe.

But what if you look at it from a private level...

Their eyes became more and more strange.

how to say.

Today, the Goths and the elves have come to an agreement on a certain issue.

They were all against the marriage.

Representatives of the dragon family with dignified expressions, elf followers with frightened expressions, and humans with increasingly uneasy expressions, in this conference room, Kant and the parrot met their eyes.

Only he saw through the other party's motives.

— Are you ready to sell yourself to thank me? Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie.

There were such words in the parrot's eyes.
