Chapter 153 The Compromise of the Kingdom

"What new discovery?"

An Baichen asked curiously: "Didn't you say that his prophecy is not a useless skill, can it successfully predict something?"

"This"

Baron Edra was a little speechless, he had indeed commented on Garcia in this way.

I don't know if I stimulated him too much. During this time, Garcia has been working hard on his prophecy, trying to prove his strength.

"Tell me, what is the new discovery?"

"Master Reaper, he said that he found the location of a new secret stone vein through prophecy."

"Oh?!"

An Baichen became interested: "Did he really say that?"

"Yes."

Baron Edra said respectfully: "Garcia just came to tell me about this matter this morning. Before I could tell Lord Death, I received your contact from Lord Death."

An Baichen pondered, he felt that Garcia did not lie to Edra, he should have found the location of the secret stone vein through prophecy.

After all, he once had the experience of successfully predicting the location of the secret stone vein. It was that successful prediction that made Baron Edra discover that there was a secret stone vein buried deep in the ground near his territory.

It's a pity that the ore veins in Nanshan have almost been dug now. Just when Edra was having a headache with this problem, Garcia successfully cast the prophecy again.

"Master Death, do you think Garcia's words are credible?"

"There is nothing credible or not, just go to the location of his prophecy and check it out."

"But, Lord Death"

Baron Edra said with a wry smile: "The location he predicted is the hinterland of the Xusen Kingdom, which is extremely far away from the city of the undead. Even if there is a mine of secret stones there, it would be extremely difficult to mine."

"And the Kingdom of Xusen knows that we are mining the mines that belonged to them under their noses, so I am afraid they will never die with us."

"Perpetually dying?"

An Baichen chuckled: "As long as you operate well, they don't have the guts."

"Master Death, what do you mean?"

"Perform well, this is your chance to show me your ability, Edra."

An Baichen said lightly: "You know what I need. This time, the communication between the City of the Dead and the Kingdom of Xusen and the next step of contact are all in your hands."

"I see, Lord Death."

Baron Edra understands that Lord Reaper is very interested in the location of the newly discovered secret stone vein. If there is really a complete secret stone vein here, then Lord Reaper will never give up.

Lord Reaper doesn't want to get into trouble, but if the Xusen Kingdom really wants to have something wrong, then Lord Reaper will not be afraid of trouble.

I must use all means to get this secret stone vein!

After severing contact, Edra pondered. He recruited the top management of Undead City, Yan Yumo and Garcia, and several people gathered around to discuss this matter in the conference hall.

After this period of development, the city of the undead has more than just two high-level officials, Yan Yumo and Edra.

After being selected by Yan Yumo and Edra, they have selected a group of sufficiently good and loyal management talents in the city of the dead.

In order to guarantee their loyalty, Yan Yumo specially asked An Baichen for a few pages of [Death God's Book], making them new summoners of the dead.

Everyone was discussing closely what method to use to negotiate with the Xusen Kingdom.

"Master Reaper's mission must be completed, not only to let the Xusen Kingdom see the power of our city of the undead, but also to get a new mine of secret stones!"

Edra glanced at everyone, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you have any good ideas and opinions?"

Baron Edra knows how much he has, and he will not engage in any dictatorship in the city of the dead.

Even if he wanted to, the envoy of God would not agree.

"Lord Edra, since Sand City has already won a war, I think the Kingdom of Xusen will not choose to collide with us head-on at this time."

"The knights led by 30 soldiers and three high-ranking knights are unable to conquer Sand City. Most of the Xusen Kingdom is already seriously injured. We can directly send people to negotiate with the Xusen Kingdom."

"No, I think it is possible to take further means of war and use the [-] undead troops of Sand City to directly advance and annex the Kingdom of Xusen! Even if it is impossible, you can still conquer the area where there may be secret stone veins."

Everyone was discussing fiercely, one plan after another was presented, Baron Edra frowned and thought.

The Xusen Kingdom is only a medium-sized economic kingdom, and its military strength is not too strong. The 30 troops is already half of the Xusen Kingdom's military strength. After the failure of the Sand City War, the Xusen Kingdom was really hurt.

At least in terms of the number of ordinary soldiers, the Huisen Kingdom has lost more than half of its professional soldiers, but they still retain enough knights.

In fact, based on the current combat power of City of the Dead and City of Sand, the Kingdom of Xusen is not at all a threat. Seven thousand undead warriors are enough to destroy the Kingdom of Xusen.

Although the Xusen Kingdom is no longer able to pose a threat to the city of the undead, it can determine Lord Death's opinion of me in this matter.

If I blindly resort to war, will Lord Reaper think that I am a brainless reckless man?

Baron Edra didn't worry about how to deal with the problems of the Xusen Kingdom. What he was thinking about was how to win Lord Death's favor, or in other words, his way of handling this matter would not make Lord Death hate him.

"Lord Reaper should pay more attention to the result and the follow-up impact of this matter. If he rashly sends troops to attack the Kingdom of Xusen, it will definitely make the people in Esk Continent panic."

"After all, the undead are outsiders to the people of the Esco Continent, and they are creatures that have never been touched. This time, dealing with the issue of the Hexusen Kingdom determines the views and attitudes of the various forces in the Esco Continent towards the City of the Undead. "

"If the city of the undead annexes the Kingdom of Xusen, people who have seen the terrifying power of the undead will definitely band together to deal with the city of the undead. At that time, the city of the undead will usher in wave after wave of wars, and we will be caught in constant chaos. In trouble."

Baron Edra thought carefully in his heart, weighing the pros and cons.

He felt that he could not only see the immediate benefits, but also analyze the longer-term situation.

No matter what position the Xusen Kingdom is in, the destruction of the Xusen Kingdom by the city of the undead will definitely leave a bloodthirsty impression on the various forces in the Esk Continent.

In the face of a powerful existence that may threaten one's own safety, it is the most basic operation for everyone to form a group to resist. No one will hand over their own safety to an unfamiliar and powerful force.

Lord Reaper has made it clear that he hates trouble, so he must not let the City of the Dead become the public enemy of the entire Esk Continent.

Baron Edra told everyone his thoughts, and after a whole day of discussion, they finally decided to stand still for the time being and sent an envoy to notify the Kingdom of Xusen to redeem Leonard and the high-ranking knight Ardley.

According to the attitude of the Xusen Kingdom, the city of the dead will take corresponding measures to keep the same and respond to all changes.

Even if the Xusen Kingdom insists on starting a war in the end, the city of the undead is also on the defensive side. Even if the world knows the horror of the undead, they will not overreact so much that they form a group to besiege the city of the undead.

"That's it!"

Baron Edra stood up and ended the meeting: "Everyone work together, we must complete Lord Death's mission!"

"The glory of Lord Death will last forever!"

Everyone praised loudly, and left the conference hall after respectful salutes.

In the following time, An Baichen did not intervene in the City of the Dead's handling of the Xusen Kingdom. He just silently observed Edra's actions.

Esk Continent is the world he decided to conquer, but after An Baichen conquered Esk Continent, he still needs someone he trusts enough to manage. There must be a spokesperson to convey the will of death on Esk Continent.

No one is more suitable to be the spokesperson than Edra, but An Baichen will not hand over the alien world he conquered to Edra to take care of it for no reason, he must see Edra's ability.

It can't be said that An Baichen managed to win the country, but it was all ruined because of the stupidity and incompetence of the spokesperson, right?
Directing the contact between the city of the undead and the Kingdom of Xusen is just a trivial matter. If you can't even do this well, what qualifications do you have to become a spokesperson to manage the entire Esk continent?

An Baichen actually understood Edra's decision to cautiously contact the Xusen Kingdom.

He knew exactly what Edra was worried about, and he was just afraid that the city of the undead would be too strong and cause public anger.

"The old man dare not take risks."

An Baichen made an evaluation of Edra's decision, but An Baichen was also very satisfied. He didn't expect Edra's amazing talent from the beginning.

Sometimes a cautious personality is more suitable to be a spokesperson to manage a different world.

At least An Baichen doesn't need to worry that Baron Edra will create many inexplicable enemies for himself for no reason, and plunge the city of the undead into the quagmire of war.

On the seventh day after the Battle of Sand City, the situation of the Battle of Sand City continued to disperse as the fleeing soldiers continued to disperse, and the entire Xusen Kingdom was boiling.

An army of 30, three senior knights, and thousands of knight orders were all destroyed!
The Xusen Kingdom gathered less than 10 defeated troops, more than half of them died on the battlefield of Sand City, and many soldiers fled to foreign countries in fear of being punished.

As for the knights who came back, there were less than a hundred of them, and all three senior knights were killed!
With such a tragic battle report, King Xu Sen couldn't believe his eyes.

When did the group of merchants in the Sand City become so powerful?

Where did they get the army from?

"Could it be that there are enemy troops ambushing in Sand City? Or are there wizards from Snow Night Castle in Sand City?"

Apart from these two points, the king could think of no other possibility.

Otherwise, even if it was 30 pigs, it would be impossible to defeat so quickly.

"Infinitely powerful corpses and skeletons, they cannot be killed, and there are ghosts that cannot be harmed? What kind of means are these! There must be wizards participating in the war!"

The king couldn't believe the news from the soldiers who had fled back. It was a fantasy.

Just when the king was in doubt about the outcome of the battle, a minister entered the palace at night and reported: "Your Majesty, Sand City has sent envoys to negotiate with us."

"What do they want to talk about?"

"It's about the redemption terms of Archduke Leonard and Yadley."

"What? Sand City put Leonard and Yadli under house arrest?"

The king was furious. No wonder Leonard had been missing and never returned. He thought that Baron Edra was capable enough to defeat a grand duke and a high-ranking knight, doing what the businessmen in Sand City had done for a long time.

"Your Majesty, it was not Sand City that captured Leonard and Yadli."

The minister smiled wryly and said, "It was Leonard and Yadli who attacked the city of the undead and were arrested."

"The city of the dead? What the hell is going on! Why is there a city of the dead in my country? Why don't I know about it!"

"Your Majesty, the City of the Undead is the territory of Baron Edra. A city has been built deep in the Gobi called the City of the Undead. They have declared their independence."

"This is betrayal! It's a betrayal of the Xusen Kingdom!"

The king was roaring, and he was very angry.

The descendants of the shining knights actually chose to betray themselves.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the defeat of the City of Sand was due to the City of the Undead."

"There are countless undead warriors in Sand City, which is from the city of the undead. I also heard that there are more undead warriors in the city of the undead."

The minister's expression was very serious: "Your Majesty, this is not a small matter. If the news is true, the Xusen Kingdom may usher in the biggest disaster in history."

The king's body trembled while sitting on the throne. He knew very well what the minister said in the information.

The undead of Sand City have defeated his 30 army and three high-level knights. If the city of the undead sends more undead warriors, can the Kingdom of Xusen stop it?

This is the problem that the king must face.

This undead city that came out of nowhere is enough to threaten the security of the Xusen Kingdom!

"Let the messenger from the city of the undead come to the capital, and I accept the request for negotiation."

The king's voice was hoarse, as if he had aged a few years in an instant.

Facing the mysterious and powerful city of the undead, he could not continue to maintain his strong side, so he could only choose to give in and get in touch with and understand the city of the undead further.
