In Ark Simulator, why do I always start out as a ruthless person?

【At the same time, a major event that happened this year caught your attention. 】

[Located in the Tara region of Victoria (roughly equivalent to Ireland), the last descendant of King Taragael, Abrana, killed her teacher, the Earl of Warwick. ]

[Afterwards, Abrana formed a force called "Deep Pool" and led the Tara people in Victoria, whose land was taken away by Victoria, to resist Victoria's rule.]

[And far away in the snowy plains of Ursus, an infected organization called the "Integration Movement" also launched a resistance movement under the leadership of a woman named "Talulah". ]

[There is turmoil in both Victoria and Ursus, which makes you smell the opportunity. 】

[But you still didn't rush to take action. ]

[After all, whether it is Deep Pool or the Integration Movement, their scale is still not huge. ]

[They may cause some trouble to the rear of the two great powers, but they are unlikely to be able to assist you in your actions after you start a war.]

[But even so, you still sent the "secret police" with some supplies and weapons to extend an olive branch to the two rebel forces.]

[You believe that these two rebel forces will surely stir up even greater waves after receiving your assistance.]

[Of course, it would be even better if the secret police you sent could persuade the two rebel forces to join Leitania.]

【1091. 】

[Just when Deep Pool and the Integration Movement were gradually showing their potential behind the two great powers, even bigger news came. ]

【It's about Theresa and Theresis.】

[The two Sarkaz leaders had a fierce dispute over whether to accept Duke Cavendish's agreement and march into Victoria.]

[And this dispute finally led to a war, and the civil war in Kazdel broke out! ]

[After hearing the news, the Sarkaz mercenaries from various countries returned to Kazdel as soon as possible.]

[The Sarkaz joined this civil war for the ideas implemented by the leader they supported. 】

[For a time, the internal employable forces of each country were almost exhausted, and the last defense force of all countries was only their army. ]

【At this moment, you realize that your chance has finally come! 】

[The world has finally changed, and your army is ready to go. ]

[It's time to ignite the smoke of war. 】

[And you set the first goal of this war on one of the goals you first promised to the people of Leitania. ]

【Bolivar.】

[This country is located in the northwest of the Terra continent, bordering Colombia. It was once colonized by many countries and is still in civil strife. ]

[Among them, there is a puppet government supported by Leithania, the Singas Dynasty. ]

[If you can occupy and control the Bolivar area, you will pose a huge threat to Victoria in the northwest, and Victoria will be sandwiched from both sides.]

[And an unexpected incident becomes an opportunity for you to intervene in the Bolivar incident. ]

[Inside Bolivar, there is a rebel party composed of Bolivarians who cannot stand the long-term civil war. ]

[They advocate ending the civil war and expelling the puppet regime, and have long had friction with the "Singas Dynasty" supported by Leithania. ]

[This time, under the liberation movement of this rebel army, the Singas Dynasty was once again targeted. ]

[The rebels who entered the town looted civilians in order to replenish their resources.]

[Even many Leithanian immigrants were affected, and there were casualties.]

【You caught this quickly. 】

[As a citizen of the Singas Dynasty, you have been treated unfairly by the Leitanians, and you feel you have the right to intervene.]

[As for how to solve it? Wouldn't it be solved by giving the rebel party's land to Leitania? ]

[If the Bolivarian rebel party does not allow it, you will send troops to directly intervene militarily. ]

[Your actions have finally aroused the vigilance of various countries. ]

[On this day, the Duke of Victoria and the Vice President of Colombia will gather in the tower of Leitania.]

[They are about to discuss with you the dispute over Bolivar.]

[So far, they still believe that you are an emperor who can reason.]

[And you will respond to their illusory expectations with a "net" that you have already carefully laid out. ]

Oh, I beg readers to support me and collect my works.

Chapter 51 Our Victoria is Leitania’s loyal partner

Trilintelme, where the destroyed twin towers once stood, has long since been completely toppled.

This dark tower, built on the remains of the Twin Towers and even taller than the others, was officially completed at the beginning of this year.

This is the tower where Chen Qi is located, and also his palace.

In Leithania, the height of the tower where the emperor lived often represented his ambitions.

Therefore, successive emperors of Leithania liked to build their towers taller to show their determination to surpass that of their predecessors.

This point is most vividly demonstrated in the Witch King.

After the Gemini Queens overthrew the Witch King, they deliberately built their towers a little lower to express their people-friendly attitude.

But when it came to Chen Qi, he didn't have so many requirements.

Chen Qi has always believed that imperial power has nothing to do with how high a building one lives in.

Even if he still lived in the slums, as long as he controlled the army and backbone, he was still the well-deserved Emperor of Leitania.

What's more, there are too many expansion projects in Leithania now. It is not worth investing so much manpower and material resources in such a high tower.

But in the end, Emperor Chen Qi still couldn't persuade Gertrude, and finally had no choice but to hand the matter over to the Ministry of Industry to handle.

So in this year, his high tower palace was finally completed.

It is not known whether it was Gertrude's arrangement or a tacit agreement between the workers and ministers in charge of the construction.

Chen Qi's tower is more spectacular than the Gemini Queens' tower in terms of grandeur and height.

It even faintly surpassed the tower that the Witch King once sat in.

And on this sunny day, the newly built tower finally welcomed its first batch of foreign guests...

"Father, Father!"

"I learned the spells that Grandpa Fremont taught me yesterday, and my father said that you have to accompany me all day today!"

In the high tower, seven-year-old Viviana, holding a chess set, trotted towards the meeting room where her father often sat, looking extremely happy.

But this time, just as Viviana ran to the door of the meeting room, the two Golden Law Guards who were guarding there stopped her.

"your Highness."

One of the Golden Law Guards replied in a dignified manner:

"His Majesty is talking to an extremely important guest, so it's not convenient for him to see you right now."

"Important guest?"

A trace of surprise flashed across Viviana's face when she was stopped, followed by a hint of disappointment.

"Father... has been negotiating with guests recently."

Although it was an expected result, Viviana, who was always obedient and sensible, had some more ideas of her own this time.

"Uncle Ryan, Uncle Brent."

"I promise not to make any noise. Can I go in and listen to the discussion between father and the guests?"

"I'm afraid that's not possible, Princess."

The tone of the Golden Law Guard named "Lian" was a little more embarrassed. To the most beloved princess in the entire tower, he had to patiently answer:

"His Majesty has specifically instructed that you, the princess, must not be allowed in."

"But Texas and Lapland can both sit in on the class, so why can't I?"

But this time, before Viviana could ask again, a pair of gentle hands hugged her from behind.

"Viviana, don't bother your adoptive father, okay?"

"Mother mother..."

The one hugging Viviana from behind was her biological mother.

This beautiful woman who returned from Colombia was obviously a true wife and mother. She patiently explained to her daughter:

"Your adoptive father is currently handling very important state affairs. His decisions will affect thousands of families."

"So, don't cause trouble for him, okay?"

"Woo..."

Finally, looking at Viviana who nodded dejectedly, the lady breathed a sigh of relief and led her away from the door of the conference room.

But in the lady's heart, she knew very well why this seemingly cold-blooded emperor did not allow Viviana to approach here.

"It's all right to tell you the truth, ma'am."

"The war is about to begin."

"Every day from now on, I will have to gamble with the smartest politicians in this land, and I don't want Viviana to know this."

"I don't want her to become someone like me too soon, full of lies and deception."

"I want her to at least have a stable childhood."

Recalling Chen Qi's instructions to her, the lady felt mixed emotions.

She didn't even know what attitude to use to face this emperor who was both her enemy and her benefactor.

But she thought, at least to Viviana, he would be a good father.

……

"Your Majesty, Emperor Leitania, I have to reiterate this once again."

In the solemn meeting hall, the man with a fat bird in clothes hanging on his shoulder at all times is Jackson, the Vice President of Columbia.

At this moment, he was arguing with a serious expression to Chen Qi, who was sitting on the throne with an indifferent expression:

"Bolivar's international problems are not only of interest to Letania."

"Colombia still has many interests involved in Bolivar's land."

"If the Letanian army insists on sending troops and using force to interfere with Bolivar."

"Then Colombia will have to resist militarily to protect its national interests and suspend all trade with Leitania."

However, there is a threat from Colombia, a country that provides Letania with a steady supply of much-needed Originium and has even stronger military power.

Chen Qi, who has always been extremely rational and calm, reacted unusually calmly.

"——That's it, I don't care."

"Varied?!"

Vice President Jackson even thought for a moment that his ears were deceiving him.

But under his gaze, the emperor still looked nonchalant, and said calmly:

"Besides, it's not just me. I think the Dukes of Victoria won't care either."

"Am I right? The Duke of Windermere."

"——That's right, Your Majesty."

This time, the Duke of Windermere, who was once again pushed out by the dukes to negotiate with Chen Qi, looked extremely relaxed, and even had a bit of interest as if he was watching the fun.

After all, from Victoria's perspective, they would rather Colombia's interests be damaged.

Victoria felt nothing but humiliation and hostility towards Colombia, a country that gained independence during the country's crisis.

Especially looking at the growing momentum of Colombia, the Dukes of Victoria were extremely uneasy.

They are worried that Colombia will become a major power that threatens them in the future.
