Chapter 1674 Retreat (2)
King Pingxi stood still, looked at everyone in the venue, and his eyes fell on Allen. He didn't know Alan's background, but seeing Huo Yi and the strong man who came in the evening surrounded Alan, he knew that the young man with silver hair and red pupils was not easy. With King Pingxi's arrogance, he had to nod slightly to Allen to show his respect.
As the master, Huo Yi came over, laughed and said: "This time we can keep the gun city, and we need the assistance from everyone from Panlong Kingdom. Come, come, let us toast the prince."
Originally, this sentence should be said to be "friends of the Panlong Kingdom", but Huo Yi used "everyone" instead. Obviously, the subtext is that you have merit, but whether we are friends or not is unclear. Of course, only a few people present could hear this subtle meaning.
Allen could hear it naturally, he smiled faintly, but he also gave Huo Yi enough face, and raised his wine glass to King Pingxi. That day when he was fighting King Pingxi on the battlefield, he was wearing a devil's helmet and a mask, with only his eyes exposed, which was very different from his current image, so it's no wonder that King Pingxi couldn't recognize him. Of course, Allen wouldn't tell the truth himself, otherwise, just because he killed King Jiwu, the people of the Eastern Empire would be unable to step down.
Seeing that Huo Yi and Alan raised their glasses, the others naturally had to raise their glasses because there were a hundred thousand people who were unwilling.
King Pingxi took a sip expressionlessly, and said, "I know that none of the people here welcome us. I didn't plan to participate, after all, there is really nothing worth talking about between us. We will join hands to defend against the enemy. It is also due to the situation, I am still clear about this. It’s just that I just received a message and I have to announce it here. After we finish speaking, we will leave immediately.”
Now even Huo Yi was surprised and said, "Oh, I don't know what news it is?"
King Pingxi walked to the middle of the venue, coughed dryly and said, "We just received the news from King Dasheng that we have decided to return to our homeland. Within two or three days, we will completely withdraw from your country's borders."
His words were also extremely succinct, and after he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly someone couldn't help shouting: "Stop, you come as soon as you say, and leave as soon as you say, what is our empire? And our soldiers who died in battle, don't you give an explanation, just pat your ass and think Walk?"
"That's right, at least call them war reparations."
Several people yelled at one another, and King Pingxi suddenly turned around and said in a deep voice, "Don't get me wrong, war indemnities are the price that only the defeated country has to pay. Dare we lose? If not If those monsters were killed out of thin air, maybe our Great Victory King is sitting in your barbarian palace drinking now!"
Suddenly one stone stirred up thousands of waves.
King Pingxi's arrogant attitude angered the people in the venue, and they shouted loudly. Seeing that the situation was not right, several generals wanted to step forward to protect King Pingxi. The prince of the Eastern Empire raised his hand, intending to block him with soldiers. It was Huo Yi who reached out to stop the crowd and said, "Everyone, please restrain your emotions. If they have already made such a decision, then I think they should have negotiated with His Majesty Julian. As long as there is no order from the emperor, they will leave , we can’t stop it, and we can’t stop it.”
King Pingxi nodded, and then left the venue with the generals.
"It's really arrogant, Marquis, let's just leave it like this?"
"Yeah, how can they be so cheap?"
Looking at the emotional faces, Huo Yi smiled wryly and said, "Why would I want to just let them go like this, but this matter is of great importance. I hope you will not do anything drastic, so as not to affect the overall situation."
Now that Huo Yi has said that, it is difficult for others to say anything more. A good banquet broke up like this.
Allen didn't think much of it, after all, he was not from the Balegon Empire. Besides, his vision is not at the same level as these people, what he sees is the scenery from a higher place. Imagine a person standing alone on the top of a mountain,
Can you see what's happening at the foot of the mountain? He can't see it, and he doesn't care. Now Allen is more concerned about where Archimedes went, which even Milo doesn't know. After all, after becoming the Son of Twilight, instinct will gradually replace Archimedes' will. Only one thing is certain, and that is to promote the fall of dusk.
It was late at night, Laura and Lucy had gone to bed, but Ellen hadn't. Suddenly his heart moved, he put on his thin clothes and got out of the window, flashing into the vast night.
In a wasteland outside of Gun City, Twilight stands in the middle of the field. She closed her eyes, opened them suddenly, and saw a figure beside her, and Alan was already standing near her. Allen looked at her and said, "Are you looking for me?"
Alan felt the breath of twilight just now, so he went out of the city overnight. Twilight nodded and said, "I would like to ask His Highness for guidance."
Allen shook his head: "It's bedtime now, but forget it, I just want to ask you to watch something."
"what?"
"Look, I got this from the corpse of Herses, do you know what it is?" Allen took out the spar that rolled out of the dragon's corpse after Herses died , The spar faintly emitted a soft fire light in the dark night, illuminating Allen's face.
Twilight called softly: "It's Tinder!"
"Tinder?"
Twilight hummed, and briefly explained, and then said: "After death, Herses will be reborn in the fire. After rebirth, as long as he retrieves the fire, he can immediately be promoted to the king. But now This fire is in the hands of His Highness, and Herses may be just a weak life after his rebirth."
"What do you mean, what kind of fire can give your king great power?"
Twilight nodded and said, "Even if you can't become a character like the Big Three, the difference will not be too far, especially if you let the upper king use it."
Allen thought for a while, and said: "Then you take it, anyway, this thing is of no use to me."
This is true, although Herses's fire contains powerful power, it doesn't mean much to Allen, who is already supreme. As for other people who are not kings, they cannot absorb the fire. So a superior king like Twilight is the most suitable candidate.
Twilight's eyes shot a blazing light first, but then shook his head and said, "Let's give it to Lord Mitinas. If the ancient abyss fire absorbs this fire seed, it will restore its former glory and become even stronger."
"you sure?"
"Of course." Twilight nodded.
Allen said happily: "It's rare that you are willing to give up voluntarily, then well, I will give this thing to Mitinas."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a Fire Horned Demon ran over and uttered the voice of Mitinas from its mouth: "I'm sorry to disturb you two, Your Highness Allen, I'd better give the kindling to Twilight. I'm too old, the potential Limited. Twilight is still young, if she gets this kindling, she is expected to become a figure like the Big Three. This will be a big help for you."
