Upon hearing what Emil said as a "robber" and "villain", Wei Ling remained calm, nodded slightly, and agreed with Emil's guess:
“From the empire’s point of view, treating every peaceful race equally is the basic principle of respecting the common destiny of mankind.
From the perspective of Xihai Metal Trading, as long as it is a compliant business activity carried out within the framework, the other party is a customer worthy of our respect. "
Emil seemed somewhat satisfied with Welling's refusal to comment on the matter.
He looked around at his subordinates and taught him sincerely:
"Look, this is a young man who came from a great empire with profound cultural heritage. He combines all the bloodshed and conquests into high-sounding words."
Then, he turned around and continued to look at Wei Ling and others, with a cold tone:
"Don't tell me that your empire advocates peace. According to ancient history, the original territory of your ancestors was only a very small part of the Eastern World. Now almost the entire Eastern World is the territory of your empire.
Of course, you will not think that the Empire has committed acts of aggression... Regarding this, we Putu people have always admired the Empire. Of course, our destiny and fortune are much different.
In terms of cultural heritage, we are even worse. Our use and reliance on force seem too direct and vulgar, and our concepts also need to be improved... For example, we don't think there is anything wrong with wolves attacking sheep, and we won't Any guilt for plundering other tribes. "
The five people's expressions remained unchanged, without making any comments, waiting for the other party's message to be conveyed:
"So, for all the surrounding tribes, like the Hana people, do you think they can exist now because we are afraid of the Empire or the Federation?
No, no, that's not the truth. As long as they don't join the Empire or the Federation, no one will care about their life or death, and neither do we.
We just feel that by letting them go and keeping them, we will have the opportunity to harvest their harvest and have a place to get it when we encounter supply difficulties.
When shearing sheep, you have to keep the sheep alive, right? "
The circle of senior officials around Emil burst into laughter.
It seemed that they had great affection for such a wise leader.
Typical gangster logic.
Welling and others made conclusions for Emil and others.
Emil stood up and rubbed his hands warmed by the fire:
"Therefore, I very much support your business activities with those tribes... Only in this way can we obtain more good things from the empire. If they live well, we will be better off.
But we will not do direct transactions with the empire like them!
We do not fight against the Empire and the Federation, but for other tribes, we only have one language that everyone can understand, and that is the range of guns and the sharpness of blades.
Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed mockingly and triumphantly.
Wei Ling also laughed immediately:
"Haha, what the patriarch said makes perfect sense!
When tigers and leopards with claws face harmless antelopes, fangs and sharp teeth are naturally the common language.
As for hunters and tigers and leopards, the common language is probably the range of guns. "
Emil's eyes shrank slightly and his smile condensed slightly:
"What do you mean?"
"My meaning is very clear!
If the surrounding sheep are no longer wild and ownerless, but become a group that can provide wool to the empire, then the empire will inevitably send hunters to prevent the wolves from harming them.
A wise adult will definitely understand this simple truth. "
Neither Emil nor his men could laugh anymore.
Welling's statement looks at the problem from a different perspective. If the empire or the federation really uses the ideas of their group to manage the tribes in this area, then the good days of his tribe will be over, unless, Like other tribes, he was obedient.
Emil's eyes became a little dark:
"Are you threatening us on behalf of the empire?"
Wei Ling shook his head slightly:
"No, no, you always think too much! This is just a logical speculation. Don't you think my speculation is too simple?
Our civilian team, which focuses on business, only represents our Xihai business and never participates in those sophisticated power games. "
The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became a little solemn.
Emil's heart was filled with thoughts. After the empire moved westward, he expected that the surrounding environment and situation would change, but he did not expect that it would come so quickly. The days of being the king and hegemon in the region might really be lost.
Welling didn't give him too much time to think, and lightly threw out a message:
"Perhaps there is some kind of private contact between your ministry and the empire, but I believe that this may not be able to see the light of day.
In the short time since we came in, the defensive armaments and some of the sergeants' equipment that I have seen do have the imperial standard equipment, but they are not systematic. This pattern is still not enough.
Whether it is the Federation or the Empire, since Pat, Hull and Kerala have been demilitarized, they will not allow so many unsafe factors to exist here. "
Welling's information undoubtedly hit Emil's weakness.
He looked at Wei Ling coldly, his eyes full of hostility, no longer as calm as before:
"Very good, the descendants of the empire's most powerful people are indeed very knowledgeable.
However, the sharp edge is so strong that no bag can accommodate it. "
Shou Gong openly threatened the young master against this old guy, so naturally he felt unhappy.
Immediately, she inserted a message on the side:
"Tch, our young master is already as gentle as jade, does this mean he has shown his sharpness?"
In Emil's view, this was like a maid who didn't know how to advance or retreat, relying on favor and pride.
Wei Ling was so indulgent that he didn't stop himself.
Emil laughed loudly, but the laughter was a bit fierce:
"Haha, does a little girl want to openly threaten us in the hall of our clan?"
"Don't dare! If I wanted to threaten, I wouldn't say this.
I will say that with the full strength of the young master and I, at least ten of the thirteen of you here will be killed in just one round!
When the other two young masters take action, plus sister, one of the remaining three of you will definitely die! "
Welling knew that Shou Gong's statement was not an exaggeration.
Among the thirteen people on the other side, Emil has the highest level, but he should not be an original warlock.
The other two are considered intermediate warlocks, and the remaining ten are all junior warlocks and warriors with certain mutant abilities.
If Wei Ling uses the large-scale confinement technique with all his strength and cooperates with the guard's full-speed assault, he can indeed kill most of the opponent's people in one round.
Only the three mid-level warlocks, if they could enter the escape state in time, could escape this attack.
Quiet again.
Emil and others froze.
Yes, they can indeed use all their strength to kill these five juniors, and the price they pay may not be as high as the little girl said.
But what about afterwards? To face the wrath of the Empire or the deniability of the Federation?
"Haha, you are such a smart girl, I am envious of you...
In this way, the two Young Masters Li and Young Master Yang are involved in a serious matter. Thirteen of us and the thirteen of us have to discuss it carefully. Your frank opinions just now reminded me that I still need to fully and deeply understand the empire's opinions. Just fine.
Let's do this. It's getting late and you are tired from the long journey today. The five of you are temporarily guests in our clan. Wait for one day, two days at most, and I will definitely give you the final answer. "
Wei Ling smiled and held up his hands:
"Haha, the patriarch is laughing at you. The maid is a bit spoiled and can't express what she means. Please forgive me. We are more respectful than obey."
Agreeing with Emil's arrangement, Welling didn't seem to think that the other party was retreating in order to advance. In the end, he kindly sent out a message:
"My lords, you can also go to Kara State to verify the latest situation. This is the first year that the Western Expeditionary Army has withdrawn, and it is also the first year that the East and the West have turned their hostility into friendship.
Haha, those high-ranking adults must also have certain expectations for each other's peaceful situation. "
Seeing that Emil remained calm, Welling finally gave a friendly reminder:
“The wishes of the Empire and the Federation are certainly good, but if the tree wants to be quiet but the wind continues, there will always be some potential forces that will not support this situation.
By the way, it is said that three researchers from the Federation have disappeared in Karabang, including Mr. Donahue. Murong Langgan, the abandoned son of the Murong family in the empire, seems to have also disappeared in Karabang.
This is a bit troublesome. After all, there are aristocratic families involved in the empire. How can it be so easy for people to disappear in the state of Kerala? Maybe the empire will know tomorrow that some of the core children of the Li clan and the Yang clan have disappeared in the state of Kerala..."
Emil's brows twitched.
But his powerful mental power controlled his thinking, and there was still no change, and he nodded slightly.
Li Lingyou, Xie Wuyi and Yang Xiaohe laughed secretly in their hearts.
This Wei Ling is so wilted and bad.
Wei Ling and Shou Gong looked at each other and smiled.
When Wei Ling mentioned Donahue and Murong Langgan, the answer was already there.
Emil's heart rate and mental fluctuations experienced slight instantaneous changes.
A careful waiter led Wei Ling and others to their guest house to rest.
Seeing the five people leaving, Emil's eyes became as cold as knives, and he did not look away for a long time.
"Sir, can the five of them really kill ten of us in an instant? Are they really that strong?"
"Sir, that person said at the end that Donahue and Murong Langgan were missing. What he said was true. We all thought that Donahue and others had withdrawn to the mainland of the Federation."
Emil was a little tired, so he sat down slowly and continued to warm himself by the fire.
But there was a lot of helplessness and weakness in his eyes:
"Among these five people, the maid who doesn't know how to advance or retreat should be the top fighter.
At such a close distance, the warlocks among us are too close to her. If they encounter the confinement spell, they may suffer heavy casualties in an instant.
The others are all warlocks, and Mr. Yang is a mid-level warlock with a fire spirit. We are still ridiculously surrounding a fire..."
Everyone's faces looked a little ugly.
“However, these are not the point.
The point is, Mr. Li, who was in charge of the negotiation, has actually shown us his cards. "
