"These guys don't know what they are in their minds?" After everyone left, it might be because the dispute just now was too troublesome. At this time, Duke Mathil couldn't help but rub his head tiredly and said, "Everyone only thinks about their own interests. This time I give up so much interests from us. After I go back, I will explain it to Dirkonel."

At this time, only he and the royal courtier Dean were left here. When he heard his words, the latter said, "You are right. This is also the main reason why those super empires have always despised or even refused to recognize our status. With these people dragging us down, it is so difficult for the empire to move forward. Therefore, His Majesty Dirkonel would want to take this opportunity to open up the current situation in one fell swoop. As long as we can become a super-large empire in one fell swoop and get more favors from our Lord, I believe that by that time, His Majesty will truly control the entire empire."

Speaking of this, the royal minister also looked at Duke Mathil and smiled and said, "As long as this matter can be settled, the benefits given up are nothing. After all, Your Majesty has already explained it before coming here, and judging from the current situation, all this has not exceeded our expected limit."

Hearing this, the Duke of Mathil nodded slightly. To be honest, he just told this person on purpose. After all, if this confidant reported to Dirkonel, that guy would believe it more, as for him, there was a lot less explanation.

In order to reach an agreement as soon as possible, two days later, he thought he had some understanding of the Prince of Khan Locke Empire, so he specially came to Li Ran and, as a member of the parliament, officially expressed his willingness to cooperate to Li Ran's side on behalf of the entire Holy Falcon League, and provided relevant supporting documents.

However, what made the Duke of Mathil a little depressed was that after seeing his sincerity, although Prince Telres was very happy, he set up a sumptuous reception dinner that night, and even personally took the captured Duke Edith to the table, before the Salanka Empire sent an envoy, he finally politely refused to sign the cooperation agreement immediately.

However, even though he was depressed, Li Ran's move made the Duke of Mathil tighten the strings again. He didn't want to have done so much after he paid so much, and even offended some noble lords for this, the matter was not done in the end. Not only would his reputation be damaged, but the most important thing was that he would undoubtedly have an unfavorable evaluation for King Deerconel.

You should know that for King Deerconel, although the two of them knew each other since childhood, and even studied under the guidance of the same Paladin instructor for two years, over the years, in his impression, after becoming king, this former companion became increasingly authoritative, but in addition to becoming more and more authoritative, his behavior became increasingly difficult to understand. But it has to be admitted that the entire Greenohm Empire was becoming stronger and stronger under his leadership.

It was for this reason that in the following days, he often went to and from Li Ran's residence and maintained close contact with Prince Telres of the Khanlok Empire, hoping that he could get closer to him when he finally weighed the trade-offs.

After nearly a week, the envoys of the Salanka Empire finally arrived, but unexpectedly, they did not come from land, but directly sent a fleet.

To be honest, this fleet has not many ships. Apart from the five medium-sized ships, there is only one large ship, but it is this large ship that has made Li Ran re-understand the navigation level of the capital of the Salanka Empire.

If the ship factory in Tel City, after covering several of the most advanced shipbuilders in the surrounding empires and investing countless funds, the ships they built finally met the standards of large ships. Nearly 100 steel crossbows can be installed. Taking human troops as an example, they can transport about 5,000 biological troops to sail.

However, although the barbarian ship in front of him seemed a bit rough from the outside, just one big word undoubtedly made it reach the peak of a large ship.

Overall, this large ship with a wilderness atmosphere is more than twice the size of its largest ship. Even the taller and stronger barbarian warriors, I believe that if this ship is only used for transportation, it can transport nearly 10,000 people at one time. As for the crossbows on the defensive ship, there are more crossbows. I believe that even a dragon legion cannot withstand its several rounds of attacks with full firepower.

However, they did not come for war, and there were not many people on their ships. Apart from some necessary sailor crew members, after it arrived at the dock, only hundreds of people walked down one after another.

It has to be said that in terms of attitude, these messengers from Salanka are obviously much more arrogant than those of the Sacred Falcon League, especially when they saw Li Ran's side and when they saw their ships, their arrogant expression was fully reflected in their faces.

It may be understood as the true nature of the barbarians, but for the teammates, they were obviously uncomfortable when they saw all this, and they also became careless about their hospitality.

Like the Holy Falcon Alliance, Li Ran personally set up a stronghold this time and welcomed the envoy on the plains several miles away. He then introduced it to the stronghold. As for the next cooperation and negotiation, Li Ran himself agreed with him.

It has to be said that in terms of rescuing the duke of his own empire, the Salanka Empire has done its best, including a barbarian lord who was mainly responsible for negotiating with Li Ran this time, and a friend who is very close to Antepat.

However, surprisingly, the negotiation lasted for many days. For Duke Mathil from the Holy Falcon League, these days were undoubtedly spent in anxiety. In addition to going to Li Ran to test his temper every day, he also saw Li Ran leaving the conference room excitedly at noon that day, he finally couldn't help but find Li Ran that night and had a deep, but unknown conversation with him.

No one knew what the two men were talking about, because even their personal bodyguards were called out at that time, but one thing is certain that during the regular meeting with the Salanka envoy the next day, Prince Tyrres, Li Ran, was absent for the first time, and announced that cooperation with the Holy Falcon Alliance was held in the afternoon of the same day.

Amid the insults and shouts of the Salanka embassy, ​​Li Ran rejected the stranger and fulfilled his promise. The Seraph God who represented his side, and joined forces with Duke Edith, who represented the Holy Falcon League to stab Duke Antpat's heart.

Looking at Duke Antpat who was still roaring in anger, he fell to the ground in silence and slowly, people felt that everything in front of them was so absurd, but the flowing blood and the gradually cooling corpse seemed to remind everyone of the authenticity of all this.

Even though Li Ran once said this, no one took it seriously for the Holy Falcon League and the Salanka Empire. The two sides had fought for many years. Although wars were often launched due to territorial and resource issues, many wars and lords actually died, but this was the first time in decades that a person with the identity of Duke had fallen, and it was promoted by an outsider.

It seems that at this moment, people felt the storm suddenly change, and even the air around them became colder. However, the still clear sky and gentle breeze outside indicate that all this only comes from changes in people's psychology.

If this sword continues, the Holy Falcon League and the Salanka Empire will be in power. In addition to them, Li Ran’s side is also an enemy of the Salanka Empire who is different from the sky. Even the Khan Locke Empire behind him is likely to be devastatingly revenge by the Salanka Empire.

For anyone, becoming the mortal enemy of a super-large barbarian empire is probably a terrible thing, not to mention that to outsiders, the relationship between Li Ran and the Holy Falcon Alliance is so fragile and vulnerable.

However, just when Hernandos and others from the Bald Eagle Legion were gloating when they saw Li Ran’s move and the Mad Eagle Legion was worried and moved, Li Ran’s side, as the person involved, blatantly launched a full-line attack on the Sallanca Empire on Roaring Island after sending away the representatives of both sides.

"Thank you for your hard work this time. I didn't expect that our ally is quite sensible." A few days later, located in the royal family of Greenohm, after listening to Dean's explanation, Deerconel smiled and said, "I have been preparing for so long. Tomorrow I will personally make a contribution. I hope that this time I can completely deal with these barbaric guys and let my Lord's glory shine on the Lannal Heights!"

Hearing his words, even when facing the king's still calm Dean, a shocking shine suddenly broke out in his eyes at this moment, and then he bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty is so sincere. I believe that my Lord Mamites can feel it. When you step on the land of Lannar Highlands and tear off the tyrannical cloak of the false god Gediuchi, your Lord will definitely get more grace from our Lord. At that time, I believe that in your hands, the fame of the Greenohm Empire will resound throughout the plane with the rise of our Lord."

Seeing this person bent down and respectfully, the king of the Greenohm Empire nodded with satisfaction. After pondering for a while, he suddenly asked: "You went to Roaring Island this time, and I believe you have also met Prince Telris. I am working with him now. Tell me about the impact on him and the views on the situation of the troops there."
