"Want some barbecue?"
"no thank you."
The celebration feast after victory is sumptuous, but the food at the celebration feast of the giant species is a bit special.
Not far away, a giant chef who was in charge of grilling meat by the natural stove was stringing the body parts of an indistinguishable demon onto a long and slender stick made of ground stone.
After the strings were finished, a giant next to him picked up a tree and inserted it into a stone bucket that was said to contain whale oil. After taking out the big tree, it looked a bit yellow and smelled like shit. There was also fish fat oil with a rather fishy smell, which was roughly brushed on the body of the demon species on the thin stone stick.
Put it on the fire and roast it, don't tell me, it is obviously something smelly, but an unknown reaction occurred, and it actually smells delicious. If he hadn't seen this vigorous roasting process, Wu Ke would have really Maybe get a bunch to try.
"This kind of monster species transformed from a sea beast that likes to dig holes is rare. The deliciousness of its meat is completely different from other types of monster species. It would be a pity if you don't try it."
Wu Ke didn't feel it was a pity at all. The giant patriarch was holding the piece of barbecue in his hand. Wu Ke had seen the owner of the piece of meat before he was alive. It looked like a big octopus, but it was sucked out of the asshole of a certain giant. The thing was pulled out by force, resulting in a scene of excrement and blood flying everywhere, but the scene was heroic.
Just thinking about it can make people lose their appetite, but the giant species does not reject these things. After cleaning them and grilling them, they taste so delicious that even the owner of the piece of meat has his butt exploded. The unlucky guy is now holding a bunch of these things in his hand, munching among the giants outside.
"Don't worry about eating, let's talk about business!"
"explain."
Wu Ke got straight to the point: "This time, you giants owe me a huge debt of gratitude!"
Sanfro put down the barbecue in his hand, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, acting like an old man with poor memory.
"If I remember correctly, my daughter and Your Excellency should be close friends, right?"
It had been upgraded. After an awkward period of time had passed since he came out, his relationship with the other party's daughter had instantly risen several levels.
And this giant old man's purpose should be to get whoring for nothing!
"In fact, your daughter and I have known each other for less than one bloody night."
Wu Ke reminded, but then said: "Although as a peace messenger, I have an almost soul-like resonance with your daughter, who longs for peace in her heart, and can be called a [close friend], but even if They are [close friends] and [best friends], and some things have to be settled openly."
"Chief Shanfuluo, you need to know that this kind of thing [friend] does not mean that one party gives unilaterally and the other party unilaterally gains. The two can be called a [friend] relationship.
The party who gives should also get what he wants. Only in this way can [friends] be [friends] and a friendly relationship can be maintained and even reach a more intimate level.
Otherwise, we may turn against each other. Do you think I am right? "
He wanted to exchange his daughter's personal gratitude for the gratitude of the entire race of giants but failed. Sanfro looked at the little man who defeated the Demon King in front of him and could only nod helplessly.
"Your Excellency is right, but you also need to know that the giants and goblins are allies."
"I know that the goblins are a little hostile to me, but that's because they misunderstood me."
"Is it a misunderstanding to kidnap their prince?"
"It's not my wish, it's all for the good of the goblins, and I have to do it."
Wu Ke explained this.
Sanfro looked at the little man in silence, and suddenly felt that this reason of "being good for others" was really bullshit.
So, after considering the opponent's record of defeating the Demon King, Sanfro nodded, as if he recognized this reason, and just said: "We giants are not a race that does not know kindness, but goblins are very kind to our race. Importantly, they may have misunderstood you, but we cannot let them misunderstand us..."
"The goblins are a very important supply partner of the giants. If the goblins cut off this supply of supplies one day, then we who are currently living in the central area in the north of the Lucy continent may not be able to survive safely in this place. , we have to fight, we have to find areas with richer supplies, and we may even need to break up the tribe to survive..."
[Of course, the giants are very powerful and are not afraid of fighting! 】
This statement is a lie.
Today's giants and dragon elves are similar. They are both races that are in decline. The act of fighting, let alone the individual races, at least, for the current giant race, is completely more harmful than good.
However, most giants are warlike and cannot see this, and the old patriarch who can see this feels helpless because of his own aging. The son who once placed hope in him was bewitched by the devil and turned into a demon species. , and then died under his own giant ax...
This kind of tragic incident was a big blow to Sanfuluo, but now in front of outsiders, the giant patriarch did not show his sadness.
He just said this: "Giants are not afraid of fighting, but for the good of other races, they don't want to fight...
The giant race is a race that advocates peace, and if there is no sufficient material supply for the goblins, in order to survive, they must raise their own weapons against other races and launch attacks belonging to the giant race...
I heard about your name. You are also a person who advocates peace. I think you would rather see us giants not going to war at will than us being on good terms with you, right? "
The old giant patriarch actually learned what he had learned and practiced it now. He said what he said, leaving him with nothing to say, and followed his path, leaving him with nowhere to go!
Wu Ke: "..."
Fortunately, he can fly!
"I can understand what you are saying, but you giants obviously don't understand the matter of [peace] deeply enough or thoroughly enough.
Think about it, are the materials provided to you by the goblins free?
I think, probably not.
The goblins will probably ask you giants to help them fight when their own race needs it, to help them on the battlefield, or even to act as human shields.
And once the giants who advocate peace are asked by the goblins to make some unreasonable demands that may break the peace, what will you do and what choices will you make when the materials are controlled by the goblins? Can you refuse? ? "
Sanfro: "..."
Although the giants are individually powerful, in terms of the current war situation in this world, they are a bit like mercenaries employed by the goblins.
In aspects that are not important to the battle situation, Sanfro can use the behavior of not holding the other party's messenger to gain more benefits for his race.
But if the goblins are involved in some important strategic situations, is it possible for the goblins to give them the chance of being rejected by the giants?
I'm afraid this won't work. If you refuse, it will be a break with the goblins. The goblins will probably settle down at home before fighting against the outside world.
Sanfuluo is not afraid of fighting, but the number of their giants is small, and some of them cannot afford to lose their clan members, because the losses caused by this kind of thing are really not worth it, so there is a high probability that he will agree to help in the fight instead of choosing Refuse the goblin species' request...
"Over time, the giant race will no longer be a giant race, but the dog legs of the goblin race. Your people will accept this subtly, and the goblins will also regard you giant race as their own in the process of constantly using you giant race. …”
Wu Ke was eloquent and used what he had learned to explain the relationship between giants and goblins, as well as the various situations involved, and what they would become in the future... one by one, using his own subjective and beneficial methods. From a different perspective, the analysis was given to the old patriarch of the giant race.
However, despite his personal subjective color, some objective analyzes also made Sanfro, the old patriarch of the giant race, widen his eyes after hearing it, and roared: "He, the goblin race, , Dare you do this?!"
"Look at what you said. Isn't the goblin already doing this? What the messenger said last time, both in words and in words, didn't he treat you giants as servants?"
Wu Ke helped the other party recall it. Although the giants were more arrogant at the time, it did not prevent Wu Ke from doing some artistic processing. He recited the words of the messenger when he left, with added details, especially to highlight the goblins' vs. giants. of disdain.
Being fooled by this, the old patriarch became a little suspicious, his eyes became a little wandering, and he frowned and thought from time to time.
Seeing this, according to his own communication methods, Wu Ke knew that the situation was counterproductive, but he directly took out his trump card: "I don't know, Chief Shanfuluo, have you ever heard of [Marrow Explosive Bomb]?"
"what is that?"
the giant leader asked.
"A missile that kills gods and destroys the essence of the gods, developed exclusively by the goblins."
"Hey, are you sure, and how do you know this?"
"This has to start when I sneak into the goblin's laboratory..."
Wu Ke started to make nonsense. He first learned about the marrow bomb in Rick's human settlement.
Later, when dealing with the goblins, Wu Ke really wanted to sneak into the goblins' laboratory and have a look.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find the place.
After that, the thief couldn't get away with it, uh... the spread of the way of peace couldn't stop, so he did something like kidnapping the little goblin prince!
Now, he told the news about the marrow blast bomb.
It is equivalent to telling the leader of the giant race: [Look, weapons that can even deal with gods have been developed by the goblins, so what does it mean to treat you (the giants) as doglegs?
If the giant species does not want to be restricted, it must get rid of the material control of the goblin species, otherwise if things continue like this, they will not even have the qualifications to resist...]
If it is determined that the [Marrow Explosion Bomb] is not fake, then this is not an alarmist situation, but something that will happen with a high probability if it continues!
However, if the alliance with the goblins is terminated, where should the giants get the missing supplies from the goblins? This is a big problem!
"If you can solve this problem, we giants will make good friends with you as you wish, repay your kindness for giving the giants a helping hand this time, and will not be affected by the goblins or other races."
After a pause, the giant leader continued: "But if you can't solve this problem, then the rewards we giants can give you will be very limited. For example, in a battle, no less than twenty giant warriors will participate in the battle. That’s our limit.”
Twenty giant warriors may not sound like a large number, but this is already one-third of the elite combat power of the giant species, which is completely enough to challenge any other lower-level race, except for the gods, fantasy species and other high-level races. The extent of a legion...
However, Wu Ke didn't care much about this kind of combat power. He could defeat the legions of other races by himself. What Wu Ke really cared about was the sincerity shown by the giants.
Compared to the scheming bitches on the elf side, after helping their race, they turned around and plotted against themselves.
The giants, well, it seems that except for the old patriarch in front of me, the other giants seem to be brainless, but they appear to be extremely simple.
Showing kindness and asking for reward, the giant leader in front of him agreed, but also raised his own difficulties. Although he used some tricks, the conversation with the other party up to now has been quite candid. Wu Ke felt very comfortable. After answering the question, I seriously considered the solution to the problem from the perspective of a giant species.
Wu Ke quickly thought of the problem of supplies, and the person who gave the idea was none other than the daughter of the giant leader.
"Shanvia, my close friend, your daughter, seems to have an idea about a certain sea area occupied by sea-dwelling species. If that sea area can obtain enough food, it may be able to help the giant species get rid of the material control of the goblins. "
"You are talking about the area over the Strange Bay. The sea area occupied by sea-dwelling species does have enough food and supplies to feed our entire family of giants.
However, the sea-dwelling species there are not easy to mess with. The giant species is indeed extremely powerful on land, but if it enters the ocean, it will not be the opponent of the sea-dwelling species.
The mermaids or sea monsters' magicians jointly cast spells, and the amount of sea water they can control is enough to bury the most powerful giant warriors in the deep sea. That is an unchangeable geographical environment..."
When Sanfro was young, he had never thought about occupying the rich sea area. However, the two sea-dwelling kingdoms occupying that sea area were not easy to deal with. No matter they were mermaids or sea monsters, neither one of them was an intruder. The giant species behind the water can be dealt with.
When the giant leader mentioned the things he had tried but failed when he was young, he came to the conclusion: "This method of yours won't work!"
"Why is it that the first thing you think of is fighting and killing?"
Wu Ke felt a little helpless.
"Don't forget my name."
"War aggressor?"
"You are the ambassador for multi-racial peaceful exchanges. Remember this, you bastard!"
