Ulcer Isle, a country within a state, is completely unruled by the Bone Tyrant, as there is another Necromantic King on the island who is no less radiant than the Bone Tyrant, Pythagoras the Festering Dictator. The island has grown from an uninhabited island to a thriving place where a large number of items are sold cheaply, and if the player wants to get the same benefits in the "City of Waiting", he must be a member of an official guild. Interestingly, members of the official guild must purchase items at the original price when they come to Ulcer Island.

In addition, some of the nascent necromantic guilds were unable to obtain floating islands due to various factors, so they reached an agreement with Pythagoras to rent land on the Lycer Island at a very cheap price and establish their own guild stations. So far, three small guilds have completely fallen to the side of the festering dictator. Now there is a voice in the world that Pythagoras is a legendary hero, a revolutionary who dared to challenge the dictatorship of the tyrant of the bones. He was praised more than criticized, and the 'Yin' poets even wrote new poems based on him, and the theme of the poems was to praise freedom and hope.

It's a self-evident fact that the Ulcer Isle is the opposite of the "City of Waiting", but the fact that the Bone Tyrant, known for his brutality and ruthlessness, has taken the Ulcer Isle by surprise to those who are closely following the situation in the Dusk Realm. According to the judgment of relevant experts, the tyrant of the white bones did not tolerate the 'traitor', but only lacked the strength at hand, so that he missed the best opportunity to strangle Pythagoras. And Pythagoras knew this, so he dared to provoke the tyrant again and again, but not to the point of tearing his face. Both sides are patient and focused on development, and once the balance of power is broken, one side will inevitably take a stormy offensive and crush the other to ashes, and then the Dusk Empire will be completely stabilized.

Now, Pythagoras was on the top floor of the 'Meat' Tower, meeting an emissary who had quietly come to the island under the cover of adventurers.

"Hello, on behalf of the most glorious Griffin family in Biegbowauer, I congratulate you." The messenger knelt down on one knee. He did not want to kneel before the despicable, and even from the moment he received the errand, he decided to 'mingle' with Pythagoras with a slightly arrogant attitude. But now, he knelt down involuntarily, not because of the hellish scenery along the way, nor because of the other party's strong strength, but because of the other party's extraordinary look.

In front of him, Pythagoras was not at all like a despicable man, but more like an emperor living in poetry and legend - he was perfect. He was dressed in red, his posture was 'straight' and vigorous, and a black 'colored' cloak was knotted from his right shoulder, covering his left hand and left 'chest'; the white bone gloves he wore on his right hand were so heavy that he could not be cut by a sword; he held a black 'colored' cane in his gloves, which slightly reduced the murderous aura brought about by a military uniform; his eyes were aggressive and 'forced' people, this kind of person liked to kill people the most, so he must take the lead, that is, it was easy to respond to all calls. He's perfect! He is obviously a despicable person, but he exudes a unique personal charm, just like those famous emperors in history! Who can say that such a figure is not enough to convince people?

Therefore, the envoy respectfully regarded Pythagoras as a superior and did not feel inappropriate in the slightest.

Pythagoras stood his staff beside his throne, rose from his throne, and stretched out his right hand: "Arise, distinguished guest from afar." ”

After the envoy got up, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the inside of your tower is not quite the same as the outside. "Before he climbed the tower, he thought that the floor and ceiling board in the tower were also wriggling flesh and blood, but who knew that it was a space made of white bones. The throne on which Pythagoras sat was also made of white bones skillfully glued.

"Because I was afraid that you would feel unwell, I temporarily rebuilt it." As Pythagoras spoke, one of the clones brought the bone chair.

The messenger only smiled bitterly. Although the bones are less disgusting than the flesh and blood, they are more 'gloomy'. If nothing else, he sat in this chair and shivered. He felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, so he changed the subject:

"Your Majesty, is this island alive?"

"It depends on how you define 'alive'. From the point of view of our necromantic creatures, it is certainly alive. Pythagoras 'licked' 'licked' his lips and said softly, "Can't you hear its cries for food?" It's just being born and needs a lot of nutrients. [ ] Oh, wait a minute......"

A figure jumped in from the window, but this was at a height of tens of meters, who could come in so briskly?! What's more, he moved too fast, and in an instant, he was next to Pythagoras, and a flash of silver light flashed!

It's an assassination!

At the moment when the messenger's exclamation came out, the clone standing aside by the 'waiter' stepped forward with a sneer, blocking the sneak attack of the comer with his body. The clone gave up resistance, and as the blade entered the 'flesh', he firmly grabbed the assassin's neck with both hands and twisted it hard. The Assassin was not a living being, and his neck was still able to move, but just as it was about to 'draw' its dagger and stab it again, a cane like a pitch-black javelin stabbed straight into one of its eyeballs, piercing through the fire of its soul unhindered. Suffering such a heavy blow, the Assassin's hands limped and finally stopped moving.

"Hehe, you're scared. June's Sunshine and the Assassins' Guild are very close, and there are always people who think they have too long to assassinate me, but unfortunately I am with this island, I have thousands of eyes. Pythagoras 'pulled' his cane back (when did he hold it in his hand), and his expression was as cheerful as if he had just 'shot'-'fine'. With the same expression, the clone dragged the Assassin's body away.

"Your Majesty, I, I would like to ask...... The messenger was stunned, and his speech was a little unsmooth: "I heard that you can devour the enemy and seize their proud skills?" ”

"Yes." The dictator sat back down, and with a moment of turn, the smudge on the end of his staff vanished.

"So, don't you have hundreds or thousands of skills on you?"

"Yes or no. I don't have the full grasp of the 'essence' of skills, and I can't merge them and deduce new skills, so the total number of skills is extremely large; But I only have a few crucial skills, and I've assigned the rest to my clones. It's the same with June Sunshine, he didn't know how many lives he devoured when he captured Bigbowo, and he also gained the skills of the dead, but he couldn't do it all, so he used the 'Starry Night' Gate to reasonably distribute the skills he gained to the clones. ”

"You're enough to stand up to an army!"

Pythagoras laughed, "The fact that every Necromantic King is equal to a full Necromantic Army is no longer necessary to discuss, I think. ”

"The City of Waiting", the Royal Palace.

Qingyi sat with a faint sad face. He's thinking about how to deal with Ulcer Island. There is no doubt that with his own inaction, Pythagoras' prestige must have grown, and he continued to rob his people and wealth. In addition, this kind of division of the country has given foreign forces an opportunity to take advantage of it, and now Bigbower is deliberately trying to build the Broken Island into a bridgehead against the Twilight Empire, and constantly beautifying the image of Pythagoras in an attempt to 'manipulate' public opinion. Look at the lies - "Oh, if the Empire of Twilight were under the leadership of Pythagoras, the world would be at peace" - peace you system!

At this moment, Brian walked into the council hall like a purple 'flower' drifting in the wind without fragrance. He said, "Your Majesty, are you worried about the Ulcer Island? ”

"yes." Qingyi sighed tiredly and leaned his back against the throne. He'd rather be the only one to worry about.

"I have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible."

"Say it."

"'One kingdom, two kings,' that is, 'one kingdom, two kings.'" Brian noticed the change in Qingyi's expression and asked, "Is there any problem?" ”

Qingyi smiled: "No, I just feel a little familiar...... You continue. ”

"'One country, two kings' means that under the premise of a Twilight Empire, the main ruler of the country is you, and the Ulcer Island is an integral part of the Twilight Empire, and it will remain unchanged for a long time as a special administrative region. This policy has the following basic points: 1. An empire; 2. The coexistence of two kings; 3. A high degree of autonomy; 4. Peace negotiations. ”

"Necromantic creatures still negotiate peacefully? No kidding! "Xue Duo saw the stitches 'inserting' needles and 'inserting' his mouth.

Brian didn't seem to think he was joking, but replied seriously, "It's actually possible." The current situation seems to be on the verge of breaking out, but neither we nor Pythagoras dare to start a war lightly. We're badly damaged, and Pythagoras is not on solid footing, so it will take time for both sides. However, we can't do nothing, you, as a king, should speak up on this matter, so...... This 'one country, two kings' negotiation plan is the best choice for you. ”

Xue Duo directly conjured into a black 'colored' human form, leaned on the armrest of the throne, and argued: "But there are two kings in a country, no matter how you hear it, it's outrageous, especially in a naturally stupid and loyal race like a necromantic creature!" Of course, I didn't mean to veto you, don't get me wrong! ”

"Lord Xueduo, you still don't understand what I'm saying. This is just a plan, an expedient measure to stabilize the Rotten Island, not an iron rule that will last forever. It's just an expression of our attitude, and it doesn't really promise anything. ”

"Then the other party will definitely not believe it." Xue Duo was not convinced.

"It is true that the other side can never trust such a treaty, but we have already distrusted each other, and now we are just looking for a window for dialogue. I had foreseen that it would be a long war of words, and perhaps we should really recruit people who are good at negotiating. ”

Qingyi interjected at this time: "To be honest, all the necromantic creatures are very out of tune, and it is even more difficult to find someone with negotiation skills than to climb the 'Key Mountain'. ”

"So, Your Majesty, what do you think?"

"'One kingdom and two kings' is 'one kingdom and two kings', I can't think of a better way. Before the day after tomorrow, I want all the countries on the mainland to know about this. ”

Brian bowed his head deeply: "You made a wise choice. ”
