Chapter 195: Let Them Fight
Smart people tend to complicate simple things when they are confused, because they are always thinking too much.
This was the case with Edmund at this time.
He didn't expect at all that Jian Chen's strength was actually all he knew and saw, and it was not as strong as he imagined.
When he spoke again, Edmund's tone of voice had completely changed: "Your Excellency Chen Jian, may I ask what kind of relationship your Hammondale Alliance has with the Erathian Empire and the Elven Kingdom?" Is it an ally? ”
At this time, Jian Chen was also a little surprised in his heart, because the other party actually proposed what seemed to be a good alliance condition.
He really couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking.
In response to Edmund's inquiry, Jian Chen hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said, "We are not allies with these two countries, on the contrary, whether it is the Erathia Empire or the Elven Kingdom, they are all quite hostile to me, and at present, the Erathia Empire can be said to be at war with us!" ”
Jian Chen's words made Edmund secretly surprised again.
This human and his seemingly weak forces are at war with the Erathian Empire!
Is this human too powerful, or is the Erathian Empire no longer what it used to be? Even such a weak force can compete with this country?
Edmund thought about it, and still felt that the Erathian Empire could not become so weak, even if the country was not as strong as he thought in the battle against the Cregans, it was not something that a small force could contend with.
In this case, there is only one possibility left, and the strength of the human being in front of him is actually quite strong.
What is going on, and how much unknown strength does he hide? Edmund felt more and more that the other party seemed to be a little unfathomable, and that day the other party was completely unafraid when there was an interception in front and a chasing soldier in the back, when he first appeared, this human with more than a hundred people under his command even planned to fight with the Kerrigans who were several times their own.
Although he later handed over the Vulcan Sword under his own persecution, he was not very convinced by his appearance at the time.
It's the same today, his army is pressing, but he seems to have no fear at all, but is ready to fight, and he looks like he wants to fight to the death.
Even when he suddenly invited him to meet, he generously agreed, why was he so confident?
Edmund delved deeper and deeper into the horns he had made, and the more he thought about it, the more terrified he became.
He felt that his actions today were really a little too inconsiderate, and he inadvertently provoked a force that should not be easily provoked, fortunately, the other party did not seem to have any intention of going against him, on the contrary, he seemed to be still interested in his proposal to form an alliance.
However, even if you want to cooperate with the other party, you must reconsider the way you cooperate, and not be so hasty.
As for the idea of subduing the other party for his own use, Edmund had already thrown it out of the clouds.
Such a powerful force, he doesn't think that he is eating the peerless Tang Sect full text now.
Seeing that this magma elemental man had not spoken, Jian Chen couldn't help but secretly worry in his heart.
The reason why the so-called Hammondale alliance is released is just a way to raise its own value so that it can gain more benefits for itself in the next alliance negotiations.
However, the other party raised a question that was quite fatal to Jian Chen.
His relationship with the Erathian Empire.
Jian Chen had the intention to hide it, but the other party's suddenly respectful tone made his heart move, and then the ghost sent him to tell the truth.
As soon as the words came out, Chen Jian immediately regretted it.
A weak force that is hostile to the Erathia Empire, will the other party still look at it? The alliance was only afraid of Huang, and Jian Chen scolded himself in his heart.
He felt that he was really stupid, even if he deceived the other party just now, he formed an alliance first, and it would be good to delay for a while and make more preparations! And maybe these elemental people will really keep the covenant and help themselves fight against the Erathian Empire, and they have fallen into some evil today, and they have actually started to tell the truth!
In the midst of his depression, Edmund, who had not spoken for a long time, finally spoke: "Your Excellency Chen Jian, I am shocked by your strength, but because of the relationship between you and the Erathian Empire, I think we need to reconsider the way of cooperation!" I'm really sorry, but that's all for today, I have to go back and think about it, and I have to discuss it with my people, and then make a new plan for us to work together! ”
As expected, the other party regretted it, and Jian Chen even had the heart to tear his mouth apart at this moment.
His eyes rolled, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Jian Chen's mind, and he immediately responded: "I can understand what you are doing, Your Excellency Edmund, after all, if you really want to form an alliance with our Hammondale Alliance, it means that you will face the attack of the Erathian Empire with us, from your point of view, offending a powerful country should have a very serious impact on your completion of your plan to exterminate the Cregans, and you should really think about it carefully!" I don't want to make an alliance with you today and turn my face with you tomorrow! ”
"But before you leave, Lord Edmund, I think there is one thing I must remind you that although the Erathian Empire is also at war with the Cregans, you must be careful with them, because this country has a strong anti-alien sentiment, they are hostile to all non-human races, not to mention you guests from another world, I am because of the large number of non-human races under my command, I have attracted their attacks, I don't know if you have noticed, This country is a predominantly human country, and their army is made up entirely of humans! Moreover, your sudden appearance has stopped them from attacking me, and has posed a considerable threat to their military plans in the area, and perhaps by this time they have included you in the ranks of the enemy and are ready to attack! ”
Even if they can't form any friendly relations with this seemingly powerful elemental clan, they must not fall to the side of the empire, otherwise their situation will be even worse, Chen Jian thought so, and did the same.
Edmund was slightly stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said, "Thank you very much for your understanding, and thank you for the reminder!" ”
As he spoke, Edmund stretched out his palm, muttering words in his mouth, and then a yellow crystal slowly condensed in his hand.
He handed the yellow crystal to an earth elemental, and then let the earth elemental hold it in both hands and send it to Chen Jian.
"Your Excellency Jian Chen, this is the unique earth element crystal of my clan, you only need to hold him in your hand and activate it with magic power, you can get in touch with me, and when I take the initiative to contact you, it will emit a yellow light to remind you, for the sake of our future cooperation, I think it is necessary for us to keep in touch, so please be sure to accept it!"
Letting a Thor troll take over the yellow crystal, Jian Chen couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart.
Things seem to have taken a turn for the better, isn't the other party repenting, but really wants to go back and think about it?
Listening to the meaning of what he just said, it seems that he still wants to cooperate with himself, and read the full text with the farm mixed with the other world!
Seeing that Jian Chen had accepted the Earth Elemental Crystal, Edmund did not linger any longer and commanded the Elemental Clan army to leave Hammondale City.
Seeing the Elemental army leave, everyone in the castle widened their eyes.
Everyone didn't understand what was going on, the elementals were killing violently, but they didn't attack the city, and after talking to the lord, they left so suddenly!
After Jian Chen returned to the castle, he immediately gathered a group of his subordinates and told him what had just happened.
"The purpose of these elemental people is to deal with the Kregans? Still want to cooperate with us? Is that incredible? After listening to Jian Chen's words, the female magician couldn't help but lose her mind a little, "They are not from this world, but from the elemental realm?" What is that place? Another world? Who is the Lord of the Elements? ”
The rest of the people were also talking and puzzled.
Half-elf Pete said: "These are not the point, the point is why did they find us?" Just like the lord said, the other party must have bad intentions towards us! We have to figure out what they want to do and what they want from us! ”
Listening to everyone's discussions, Jian Chen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The other party's intentions are not good, that's for sure, but the strange thing is that the other party's inconsistent attitude and the strange performance of the earth elemental crystal given later.
There was nothing wrong with this hedron after being confirmed by the sorceress, it should be just a communication prop as Edmund said.
But why did the other party's attitude change so much before and after?
Chen Jian threw this question out for everyone to discuss.
Robert frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Lord Lord, I wonder if it was the Hammondale Alliance you said that scared the other party?" ”
"Oh?" Jian Chen was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, the other party's attitude did begin to change after he said the Hammondale Alliance, "It's just a name, the other party won't have such a big reaction, right?" ”
Everyone also looked at Robert.
Robert grinned and said, "It's not impossible, according to the other party, they have only been in this world for a few days, as you guessed, they may only know a general idea of the current situation on the continent but not too well, and they are not very clear about what is happening between us and the Erathia Empire, an alliance that can be at war with the Erathia Empire is enough to scare many people!" Think about it, after you said that we were at war with the Erathian Empire, did the attitude of the other party be even more different? ”
Chen Jian thought about it and found that things were indeed as Robert said, and he couldn't help but feel very happy: "So, I didn't say the wrong thing?" ”
Half-elf Pete interjected at this time: "Even so, our situation is still quite dangerous, and if they find out that things are not as they thought, we are afraid that we will be in even more trouble!" This matter may not be hidden for long! Sooner or later, they'll find out! ”
Robert could only smile bitterly when he heard this: "That's true!" ”
The sorceress shook her head and said, "This is also a helpless thing, our strength is still too weak, it is all that Mlak guy who spoiled us, and made us so passive, I really want to burn him with a fire!" ”
Orisen sighed and said, "With the hints of the lord to them, I believe that they should be careful to beware of the Erathian Empire, if only there was any way for them to fight with the Erathian Empire!" That way, maybe we can buy a little more time to prepare! ”
Jian Chen touched his nose and suddenly smiled: "If you want them to make enemies with the Erathia Empire, it's not impossible!" ”
