Chapter 100: After the Festival
"Mrs. Green, ...... today Can I eat at your house? β
"What are you talking about, Zhang? Of course! Come on in, I cooked lobster borscht tonight! β
"Thank you!"
After solving Rudy's little trouble, Qingyi was also very tired and simply went offline. He got up and opened the curtains and saw a family of three walking down the street, a child in a Santa hat sitting on his father's shoulder, and his mother carrying a bulging shopping bag in one hand and a box of uneaten popcorn 'flowers' in the other.
Qingyi watched the family until they walked a long way and then turned back. He looked at the interior, shook his head, and went to Mrs. Green. Fortunately, Mrs. Green did not spend tonight with her family, and she had a picnic yesterday, so his hopes were not disappointed. As soon as he stepped into the room, which was separated by a corridor, he was immediately surrounded by a dazzling array of Christmas decorations. He felt like he was in a dream, a Christmas dream.
There are many moments today when he thinks of his family. It put him in a bit of a bad mood.

December 26th.
Christmas is over, and people are back to busy work. Many small shops have not had time to take off their Christmas decorations, and it looks as if they are reluctant to leave for Christmas. Of course, humans won't be sad about it, after all, we'll meet again next year.
There's nothing special about Little Bee Express. Qingyi was busy and continued to play the game of ruler with 'Lu'. He found that not only 'Lucy', but also the other operators were having a good time. It seems that answering the phone is also a way to exercise reflexes.
In the evening, go home.
After entering the house, Qingyi habitually turned on the computer 'sexually', went to the forum, and saw a message: The Twilight Empire was officially recognized.
"Wow." Qingyi was not surprised, skipped the news, and browsed other posts at will, before going online. As he had expected, when he appeared at the Lord's Mansion, Chief Jon had already placed two letters in front of him, one from Bigbower and the other from Sarah Menro.
He thought for a moment, and first opened Sarah's letter from Monroe.
The letter was written by Grand Prince Sarah Menro. He first apologized for his brother's reckless behavior, and then asked Qingyi to make a careful decision not to be green, since his father chose Qingyi, then Qingyi is qualified to be a member of the royal family. His words were sincere, and his words were filled with strong warmth, and he simply regarded Qingyi as his own brother. At the same time, he also mentioned the matter of land distribution at the end of the letter, saying that he would never infringe on Qingyi's interests.
Qingyi opened another envelope.
Although this letter was sent by Bigbower, it represents the attitude of the countries of the mainland. They first recognized the sovereign status of the Dusk Empire, and recognized the Blackstone Valley as the land of Qingyi. They hinted that the previous war was just a "misunderstanding caused by too little 'exchange'" and that in fact, everyone could "carry out friendly cooperation". After learning of the return of the Sara Munro to the mainland, they were "very embarrassed" because "the Valley of Blackstone is the territory of the Twilight Empire"; In order not to infringe on the interests of the "new allies", the land of Orquilla in the Ashes Wilderness was divided among the Sara 'Monroes'. This letter is similar to the previous one, but it is different, and although it also expresses good intentions, it is a bit hypocritical no matter how you look at it.
"Xue Duo, what do you think?" Qingyi held a piece of letter in one hand and asked.
A black 'colored' figure stood in the shadow, leaning against the throne and reaching out to dust off the letter: "I think 'kind' funny." Aren't humans and necromantic creatures mortal enemies? I just finished the war, why did I shake hands with you and make peace? β
"There's an old saying that goes like this: There are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal friends. As far as human beings are concerned, as long as they can gain benefits, then this thing is feasible no matter how absurd, such as making friends with me and turning enemies into friends. The great kingdoms were overwhelmed by the funeral mold, and their vitality was greatly damaged, and they also had a deep fear of us. In order to prevent me from taking advantage of the situation, they had to ease me and appease me, so they simply recognized the status of the Twilight Empire, and recognized the necromantic creatures as part of the continent, although everyone knew that this was a fantasy. When the time is ripe and we know the roots, then the countries are likely to tear their faces and go to war with me. β
Xue Duo smiled and said, "So, you should launch an offensive now?" β
"Theoretically, yes. But they are very clever enough to arrange the Sara 'Monro' people in the ashes wilderness, and from the geographical environment, the new Sara 'Monro' kingdom is a stumbling block for us. They deduced my origin from my surname, and thought that I would not attack Sarah Monro, and in that case, I would not be able to cross Sarah Monro and invade the mainland. Poison Rosewood is right, their hand is called the emotional card, and they play really 'awesome'. β
"Aha, host, you're so smart!" The black 'colored' figure pushed Qingyi with his elbow: "If you throw away your surname early, then you can slaughter all the Sara 'Menro' people without any scruples, and then sweep across the continent!" β
"Oh, really, the reason why I say the emotional card is 'good' is that I won't attack Sara 'Monroe', as they expected." Qingyi smiled.
"What?! Didn't you cut ties with the Sarah Menroe?! β
"Please note that I do not want the surname 'Sara' Monro, and it is not necessarily related to whether or not I am willing to kill the Sara 'Monro' people. First, the Sarah Munro people are not guilty and should not be 'affected' by the flames of war, and second, for Robert's sake, I cannot kill any of the Sarah Monroes. β
Xue Duo was stunned for a moment and said, "Host, you have really changed. The first few times you said that you should respect life, I thought you were just talking casually, but I didn't expect you to come to the real thing. But as I said, I won't question your decision. Now what are you going to do? β
Qingyi took out the letter paper and the "purple iris" that had not been used for a long time. He wrote a reply to the Grand Prince, politely rejecting the other party's request, saying that he was determined not to use the royal surname anymore, congratulating Sarah 'Monroe' on the re-establishment of the country, and hoping that the major cities would be 'handed over' to the Necro Players Guild.
In fact, the two kingdoms of Bigbowo and Sara Menluo have been cut down first, and there is not even a single Sarah Menluo and 'Mao' in the ash wilderness, and the Sara Menluo people announced the founding of the country, and also systematically announced that Qingyi was at work at that time, not online. These two letters are simply notices.
However, the founding of the country was not an easy task, first Qingyi had to get the mold rangers out of the ash wilderness, so that the Necro Paradise gradually became a suitable place for living creatures to live, and then the Sara 'Monro' people could move in. According to Qingyi's estimates, the Sara Menro would disembark in the port city of Olquila, the former port of Lal Haren. In addition, there are many details of 'sex' that need to be communicated by both parties, so Qingyi simply let Brian take full authority to deal with this matter.
"It's time to find a subordinate who knows how to negotiate." Qingyi snapped his fingers: "There is Oskol for espionage intelligence, there is Clavisoll for the forces, and there is still one negotiator missing, then the foreign affairs team will be perfect." β
"Aren't necromantic creatures always negotiating with weapons?" Xue was suspicious and confused.
"We are also a sovereign country now, and we can't fight at every turn, which hurts our feelings. If there is a problem that cannot be solved, we will negotiate first, and then we will start if the negotiation fails. Qingyi replied.
Just then, a carrier pigeon flew in. It is gray all over, and it does not seem to be a white dove that represents peace. The letter writer is Bald Eagle, yes, it is the war tycoon who defeated Qingyi first, and then was defeated by Qingyi. Since the two have made a feud, it is common sense to speculate that this letter could only be a war letter.
"Wow, host, the bald eagle is looking for you, it's too rare, why don't you open it quickly?" Xue Duo agitated.
"I've already guessed what he's going to say." Qingyi, however, was uncharacteristically uninterested in the letter. He opened the letterbox, and the letter was very small, but the content was quite shocking:
"June Sunshine, since I lost to you last time, I've wanted to fight you again. But this so-called Sarah 'Monro' kingdom is really in the way, so we might as well connect with the green 'color'. β
After reading it, Qingyi tore up the letter paper.
After Christmas, the decorations on the World Tree disappeared completely, and Qingyi actually gained one level of experience in the event and successfully jumped to 55 levels. The creatures who came to celebrate the festival were gone, and even the poisonous rosewood decided to go home as soon as possible, and the gossip leader kraft candy followed. At first glance, it seems that the banquet is scattered and the lights are dim. The battle is over, the festival activities are over, and everyone is back on the daily trajectory of life.

Bigbowo, the residence of the Sarah 'Men' Roe Legation.
A man sits on the roof, unbuttoning his chest, and holding a glass of dark blood wine in his right hand. If you look closely, you'll see the moonlight shining through himβhe's a ghost. He is none other than the Twilight Empire's necromantic spy expert, Oskol. He lifted his glass, took a sip of the liquor, poured it all over the bricks, and sighed with enjoyment: "Oh, what a layered taste......
A low, strange cry was heard in the distance, presumably from an owl. At this time of year, owls are rare. The cold wind blew like a knife on the ground, blowing the thin blades of grass to the ground. The night sky was clear today, and probably the clouds couldn't withstand the threat of the wind, so they had to 'dew' the moon outburst, so the moonlight was as clear as tears. This moon is so pitiful.
The wine swirls in the glass, spinning the moonshadow like crystal crumbs. Oskol shook his wine, his eyes gradually empty, as if his mind had returned to the past. After a long time, he said to himself: "Orquilla is a thing of the past, and the next thing to do is to send Astante and Sara 'Monroe'...... Cheers! Enemies, it would be your greatest mistake to allow an undead empire to grow! Enjoy this hot revenge bar! β
He narrowed his eyes and smiled so hard that even the moon could match. And the owl, which was hidden somewhere, let out a muffled chirp, as if in a dream.
