Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds - Chapter 747
The engine roared, and a passenger plane galloped like a galloping horse from the long runway, and then took off into the sky and flew into the sky. The steel wings turned across the sky and sailed towards the far port.
The distinguished guest on the plane was named Antoine Syracuse.
The gentleman’s face was almost pressed against the porthole, and he couldn’t bear to sigh at this alchemy wonder that turned decay into magic and made mortals soar into the sky. He desperately waved goodbye for no other reason. Bian Yaoyao waved to show goodbye.
That person is Kant, the Dragon of Aurora, one of the most powerful people in the world.
When the Broken Islands turned into a star-studded chessboard, the blue sea was like a curtain, the sea and the sky were a line, the sky in the distance was clear, and he was already in the sky, and Anthony stopped.
He let out a slow breath and calmed down his still excited mood.
That’s right, he’s going to the far port.
At the suggestion of His Royal Highness Kant, he did not return to the Azure Fleet, but went directly to the Far Harbor, where he sent a message back to the Starry Court.
Information on proposed negotiations.
Talks about ending the conflict on the front lines and proceeding with the extraterrestrial material trade.
That is to say, as the lord of the Far Harbor and the occupier and owner of the Broken Isles, Kant proposed to start negotiations and invite senior officials of the Austrian Council to arrive at the Far Harbor to conduct official negotiations with Kant’s shogunate ministers.
The theme of the conference is to end the armed conflict on the front line of the Broken Isles, to redeem prisoners, to open up the purchase of extraterrestrial substances, to propose scientific research cooperation, to implement intelligence sharing… and so on.
And at this ministerial level meeting, he, Antony Syracuse, can also be included in it.
It’s a real honor.
Anthony stroked his chest, his strong heart pounding, and his heart was up and down, and it was difficult to stop.
He has reached a secret agreement with His Royal Highness Kant, that is, as a spy, he will explore the bottom line of the Council’s transaction for him, and lobby the Council for the interests of Kant and Far Harbor.
In return, His Royal Highness Kant will grant him the monopoly of several sugar products in the council, and this is not a constant reward. Depending on the interests he has won for the Far Harbor, the reward will also increase accordingly.
… make a lot of money.
I didn’t expect it, I really didn’t expect it.
Anthony’s heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his face couldn’t stop.
It’s not that he hasn’t heard of the fame and power of the Aurora Dragon, but hearing it is false, seeing is believing, after hearing the news that his daughter might have something to do with Kant, he was first happy and then doubtful.
And after the council’s will was conveyed to this side, he also thought about it for a long time – on the one hand, the position of the peripheral member of the Senate and the power that would follow, and on the other hand, what his daughter, who is the lover of the Dragon of Aurora, could bring to him. The benefits and the benefits, which one is more worth betting on.
The final conclusion is that the former.
Regardless of his family, interests and relationships in the Austrian Council, the fame, status and power brought by a member of the Senate are also real.
And on the daughter’s side – regardless of whether Kant and Nicias are really having an affair, even if it is true, there is a very, very, very real problem here.
Nicias is a lover.
And only as a lover.
It is well known to the world that Kant’s legal fiancée is Her Royal Highness Princess Tina of Goethe. The Dragon of Aurora defeated the Moon Moon Dynasty for his lover. This is already a popular annual love story in the whole continent. Anthony does not think that he is pedantic, A daughter who sticks to the old rules can defeat Princess Tina. Besides, even if the lover turns positive, it will not be her daughter’s turn – the Phoenix King is still lined up in front.
The father-in-law of the Aurora Dragon, this identity is indeed wonderful, but unfortunately the beneficiary of this wonderful identity will only be the Grand Duke Goethe for the time being. In contrast, can the identity of “the lover’s father” be called a father-in-law in the legal sense? It is still a question worth discussing, and how much benefit can be obtained through this name can only be determined by Kant’s conscience and Nicias’s favoritism – Anthony is extremely pessimistic about this.
And there is another problem, love has a shelf life.
If Kant is tired of playing, and the freshness is over, then Anthony’s identity will become more embarrassing.
Therefore, instead of relying on her daughter’s beauty and looking forward to the charity of the Dragon of Aurora, the real members of the Austrian Law Council are more attractive. Although they are only peripheral members of the Senate, they have also entered the power class of this wizard country. , enough for him to lead the family to complete a leap.
After all, from the “country mage”‘s slightly lacking intelligence sources and slightly narrow vision, even if Kant is sitting on the power of the forbidden spell, he is just a powerful spellcaster with excellent alchemy skills.
The Austrian Law Council is the country of mages, with a glorious reputation for hundreds of years, the guardian of the world, the last watchman of spellcasters in the world, a vast country, and a powerful army. It attracts people from all over the world with openness, tolerance, knowledge and truth. People who are talented in magic join in to create the brilliance of the Mage Kingdom…
Which one to choose, the answer is already obvious.
Loyalty to the council, of course.
— but not long ago, after meeting Kant, he glued the broken crutch.
The terrifying army equipped with powerful alchemy armor, the steel wings that run wild in the sky, the giant steel battleship like the ride of a god, the allegiance and following of the arrogant elves are enough to set off a buying craze all over the world, but it is a wonder that it is dismissed. Jane is delicious… In a short period of time, he updated his understanding of Kant.
He is rich and powerful, but has no interest in power. He is blind and has many small goals that sound like a good guy. He claims to be an ordinary person from an ordinary family.
Of course, that’s not the point.
The point is, Kant is very attentive to Nicias and attaches great importance to her, and is actually willing to pay and redeem these precious extraterrestrial substances for Nicias.
And the kindness and wooing shown by Aurora Dragon made Anthony’s heart ecstasy even more.
He found himself too conservative before.
The members of the council promised that the benefits of being Kant’s father-in-law were not a multiple-choice question.
He can have it all.
That is to say, as a messenger who takes both ends, he mediates between the council and Kant, so that both parties can get what they want, and he can be a member of the council, and the dragon of Aurora is in the far port to respond. , Holding the exclusive franchise rights of sugar products, isn’t it beautiful?
—Praise the Council, Praise Kant!
His heart was hot, and suddenly he heard the cabin broadcast: “Hello? I’m Kant.”
Anthony wanted to jump up, and then found himself firmly buckled in the seat by the seat belt. The man hurriedly untied the belt and said loudly: “Hello, Your Highness Kant!”
The Aurora man smiled and said, “Uncle, how was the flying experience?”
Anthony immediately said: “Praise you, Your Highness, your alchemy achievements are unparalleled in the world!”
“I wish you a pleasant journey. The plane arrives at the far port, and there will be officials to greet you. Please notify the council immediately. I look forward to the next ministerial meeting.”
When Kant said this, his tone was meaningful: “The friendly relationship between Far Harbor and the Austrian Council is all up to you to mediate, Bo… I mean Your Excellency Anthony.”
After patiently listening to His Excellency Anthony’s repressed warm flattering words, Kant chatted with him a few more words, and finally cut off the communication. He played with the communicator in his hand and suddenly laughed.
“Interesting…talk, analyze, think, and then gain insight into the target’s desires, guide his ambitions, pinch his itch, open a bargaining chip he can’t refuse, and then let the greedy show his ugly face, let the fallen have no bottom line, and make hesitant The sufferer suffers from gain and loss.”
“Thus, those with unrighteous minds scramble for the bones, and the vile, vicious, shameless, and evil flow out like a torrent. When the malice grows and the evil blooms, the dark curtain will be opened, and the sun will shine to wash away the evil and sin, and abandon the bottom line. , The Fallen who trample on morals will lose everything, their ecstatic expressions will turn from sluggishness to distorted, wailing and cursing but still getting nothing… It’s fun, it’s fun to play with bad guys.”
When he said this, he turned to look at the parrot walking beside him: “I said that, doesn’t it look very much like you emperors and monarchs who are powerful and aloof… Hey, what kind of eyes are you looking at?”
The parrot spread his hands and spoke American English, and the black tone was vivid: “I don’t know, brother, I don’t know, I just think there’s something wrong with you?”
“…Why is there a problem? Isn’t that how you feudal monarchs play?”
“I’ve never seen you so skilled.”
The parrot wondered: “You are so powerful, why are you still a virgin?”
“What happened to the virgin?” Kant said suddenly, “Did the virgin eat your milk?”
“…Bah.” Parrot raised his middle finger, “I mean, why don’t you use your tricks to **** women?”
“Why use it?” Kant frowned. “The women who can be caught by this set are either on the beach or on Sina’s hot search. They are all hot on the beach and on Sina. Why should I do it?”
“…”
This **** makes sense, the old lady is speechless.
Parrot didn’t give up, and said: “This… a good woman should also be able to use it, PUA or something, don’t you think there are many victims? You still look envious and jealous.”
Kant replied: “If she is a good woman, and I use this method to deal with her, then I am not a human being, and a man has some things to do and some things he doesn’t.”
“…”
The parrot’s expression was a little confused.
Kant stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her: “What do you think?”
Marekise said in a complicated tone: “I don’t know which floor you are on at the moment.”
She shook her head and decided to end the tangled topic: “So, what are your plans? Are you going to send those three Ilan-Tyl substances to the Arcane Council?”
“Why not?” Kant spread his hands and said, “Although the submarines of the council are under our surveillance, we still don’t know what they are going to do. They seem to have special intelligence channels, or they have found some ancient books and archaeological guides. Either get a little more radical and they get in touch with the Ilam-Tyr remnants.”
“In other words, they have special skills for archaeological unblocking, and the secret of this kind of skills is something we can’t get – the threat of force, diplomatic pressure, and the theft of spies can’t do it, unless I directly use stealing fire. The power of the people is drained of the Grand Speaker… In this case, we can only lie.”
He raised his finger: “The council may need these three substances to unseal the ruins of Yilan-Tair, then I will give them to them, since they need it urgently, then I will sit on the ground and raise the price and knock them a big bamboo stick. , when they use these substances to unravel the ruins, then let’s pick peaches again and give them a hard time.”
The parrot frowned thoughtfully.
“I understand what you’re talking about.” She said slowly, “But it’s risky.”
“What risk?”
Marekis replied: “For example, your operation to cut the hustle failed, and the people in the council took control of the ruins of Ilan-Tel, or something like that, or, there really is what we deduced. Lan-Tair’s Era survivors, they were rescued by the council and voluntarily joined the Arcane Council. If you want to cut off the beard, do you still need to use force to **** them directly?
Kant smiled and said, “So what? It’s also a good thing.”
The parrot was startled.
“If there are really old remnants of Yilan-Tair, then they are imprisoned by the seal of the Star Palace, and the blood feud cannot be cut off. Once they get out of trouble, they will inevitably become our important allies against the Star Palace, even if we are grateful to the council. The rescue grace, willing to join them, and one day we will fight alongside us.”
The fire thief looked at the sky, then at the parrot, and smiled.
“So, it doesn’t make much difference, whether it is the Council or us, one day we will fight side by side and face the sky. Even if the Council obtains the essence of Ilan-Tair’s civilization, it will increase the power of the mortal world. At this moment, the rescue of Ilan Thiel is the most important thing, and whoever gets the benefit is second.”
The parrot was stunned for a while: “Then you should go directly to the council, get straight to the point, expose their little actions, and talk about a half-point on the condition of giving the relic material.”
Kant rolled his eyes and said: “Why, those gangs have hatred against me, and they want to make a fortune behind my back, and they even dare to steal Lao Tzu’s things. already.”
“…cut.”
The parrot snorted: “At that time, the bamboo basket is really empty, the survivors ran away with the council, and you missed the essence of the Yilan-Tair civilization. Let’s see how you cry.”
“Are there any survivors who said that, even if there is, isn’t this still you?” Kant smiled, “With your wisdom and ability, plus the assistance of paradox elements and the support of earth technology, we are not afraid of those three substances. The development and use of it may not be much worse than the Ilan-Tel civilization, I believe you.”
Marekith rolled her eyes at him, and was silent for a few seconds.
Then, she showed a lonely wry smile.
“I can’t think of it.” The previous Phoenix King said slowly, “At that time, I suggested that all the clans put aside their prejudices and unite, resolve the resentment for thousands of years, and called on all mortal creatures to work together, and the second life after countless years, on the From the overall situation, I am not as good as you can see clearly… I have really changed…”
Just then, her shoulders were covered with warm palms.
“It’s because of me.”
The parrot looked up in surprise.
Kant smiled: “In those days, you worked hard for the safety of elves and even the mortal world. Of course, you have a big picture, but now, you look at problems from my perspective, considering my gains and losses and interests, of course not. Would like to see me suffer, and don’t want to benefit my enemies… Maybe it’s changed, but I like and appreciate the change.”
“As for the overall situation, you can leave it to me. After all, I am the fire thief.”
He said softly, “You can think about what you want to think about, you don’t have to worry about it anymore, Marekise, you don’t have to fight anymore, your mission and responsibilities have actually ended, and it ended a long, long time ago, you can Try to live for yourself…”
Back then, the Phoenix King Marekise, who was revered by the mortal world, stood dazedly in front of Kant, looking at the current fire thief.
She has known each other for less than two years, but she is already a very close and very close friend. She knows almost all of the other’s secrets, and even her and his fate are connected in a wonderful way… That is the beacon of her re-entry into the world, It is a beacon for the losers of the old days to wander into the new world without getting lost.
And now, standing before himself, he relieved her, comforted her, and persuaded her to escape the curse of regret and responsibility for her failure, because he would take on a new burden.
The beautiful elf smiled brightly.
She reaches out.
Uppercut.
The skillful swipe will not cause pain, but it will knock the fire thief into the air. The Lushan Shenglongba roars above the empty Broken Islands, accompanied by the roar of the previous Phoenix King.
“Bastard!” she roared, “How dare you PUA me! You are so brave!”
Kant’s parabola landed, and then a flat-sand geese slid off the runway.
Sitting on the ground, he couldn’t find the direction in which the parrot disappeared, and patted his head blankly: “Huh?”
In short, Anthony arrived at the far port.
Contact the council consul in the far port and send this important information back to Tulaxiaye.
Kant proposes a negotiation.
The content of the negotiation is to end the idiot-like conflict in the Broken Isles, the Far Harbor will return the captives, and open the export of three extraterrestrial substances to the Austrian Council, allowing the council’s research institutions to add extraterrestrial substances and paradox elements. Research projects, share results.
On the contrary, the council has to pay the ransom, make an apology, and adopt the method of bartering and bartering, using magic tools, laborers, slaves, scientific researchers, arcane talents, etc. to exchange those three kinds of things. Extraterrestrial substances, and signed a trade agreement with the far port to open up trade.
But the two sides were tacit, and one of the important conditions was not put on the table, that is, the issue of the ownership of the commander of the azure fleet, Nicias… It is impossible for the council to admit that they took the senior general as a transaction condition, which easily disturbed the military’s heart, Cause rumors.
And Kant also agreed to this tacit proposal.
This was interpreted by the council’s think tanks as… guilt.
In short, the negotiator of the council set off and went to the far port urgently, and the important shogunate ministers were also ready to fight. Leaving aside the issue of Nicias, other conditions were also extremely important. Yi’s first negotiation is not only related to the future development of Yuangang, but also to the prestige of the shogunate – they want to make a strong voice in the world.
And one of the parties involved in all this, the commander of the Azure Fleet, Nicias, who was put on the shelf, betrayed by her relatives, and abandoned by her motherland, Miss Admiral, is still ignorant of all this.

PS1: Update… Ah, I read the news today, the Polish smart donkey is a bit troubled both internally and externally. Forget it, it’s none of my business. As for whether they can complete what they promised in the subsequent update, I am actually More pessimistic, after all, small factories.
