The Lord of Ashes

Smooth negotiations do not mean that all results will be achieved.

According to the progress of the ongoing negotiations in the Star Tower, I am afraid that it will take several meetings and consultations before the newly arrived wizard civilization can reach a consensus on cooperation with the Pingmo Alliance in various fields.

However, at the second meeting, some exciting resolutions were reached.

For example, the Wizard Civilization Envoy, represented by Thane, has reached mutually beneficial cooperation with the three top civilizations of the Demon Alliance in the field of resource trade such as energy crystals, rare metals, and soul slaves.

As for the Capricorn Empire sending troops to assist, Thain also mentioned it implicitly during the negotiation process.

And this led to an extremely excited response from Grand Duke Muridi.

Looking at Grand Duke Mulidi's appearance, it seemed that even if the wizard civilization asked this noble Grand Duke to sell himself, he would have nodded in agreement without hesitation.

The Capricorn Empire's pursuit of profit and its indifference to gains and losses in areas such as "face" also made Thain finally feel the familiar taste of technological civilization.

Everything else is illusory. For scientific and technological civilization, benefits are real.

Thain finally found out why the Capricorn Empire was able to develop a top-notch technological civilization through the "imperial system".

69𝓈𝒽𝓊𝓍.𝓃ℯ𝓉】

The reason is also very simple, because the royal family of the Capricorn Empire is the largest "capitalist" in this top civilization!

After several generations of capable people, the Capricorn royal family.

The control of the Capricorn Empire has reached all aspects.

Even the treatment of more than 80% of the empire's industries has reached an exaggerated level close to monopoly!

The billions of ordinary creatures in the Capricorn Empire are controlled by the royal family from birth and work for the royal family all their lives.

From this point of view, the Capricorn Empire's control over this civilization far exceeds that of the defeated Gallente Federation and the Source Energy Civilization that has been destroyed in history.

At least if it starts a war with this top civilization, it will be difficult for the wizard civilization to do things like instigating rebellion against the intelligent robots, or the "Light of Replicants Incident".

The Capricorn royal family not only controls their empire in all aspects.

Including the reputation among the empire and the bottom, is it still very good?

Especially in the past ten thousand years, two successive emperors have led fleet groups and died on the battlefield of the Demonic Tide Civilization.

This made the status of the royal family in the hearts of the people of the empire rise sharply again.

The Capricorn royal family even has a tendency to become the spiritual sustenance of billions of creatures in the empire.

"What a special technological civilization!" Thain couldn't help but exclaimed when he learned more information about the Capricorn Empire.

Once there is an agreement to support the Capricorn Empire, Thane himself will definitely go there in person.

Fighting in the metal cemetery is also an opportunity for Thain.

He is also very curious about this top technology civilization.

In addition to the special system, Thain is also concerned about what is the core technology of the Capricorn Empire?

According to the normal standards of a top civilization, what functions will their civilization’s treasure have?

…

After the second round of negotiations in the Star Tower ended, there was another month and a half break, and the third round of negotiations continued.

This kind of negotiation will not end in the short term at least.

Considering that Thain still needs to say hello to Ms. Bev and others who are far away in the wizarding civilization, especially the issue of the future wizarding civilization sending strong people to support the Capricorn Empire.

The number of subsequent negotiations may be even greater.

Reaching the fifth round…the seventh round…

As the leader of the nine-star civilization, Oren, the Star Brilliance Envoy, would certainly not spend all his time on this.

After the third round of negotiations, Oren, the Star Brilliance Envoy, did not appear in the meeting room of the Star Tower most of the time.

The person who took his place here was another star envoy whose strength had reached the eighth level.

After that, Oren only appeared briefly in a few key meetings or when major cooperation proposals were reached.

As a leader of civilization, Oren is also very busy.

When the other party left, he also invited Thain to look elsewhere when he had time, but Thain declined.

Thane needs to stay with the members of the envoy of the wizard civilization at all times, handle affairs related to the envoy, and keep an eye on the civilization negotiation process.

Don't think too wonderfully about these different civilizations that have the conditions for cooperation.

If in Thain's absence, a master uses a mysterious power similar to induction, the members of the weak wizard civilization envoy can inadvertently sign certain treaties that are unfavorable to the wizard civilization.

That's the trouble.

Thain must stay here and keep an eye on the final result.

Thain's professionalism, as well as the shrewdness and concentration of wizards and civilized creatures, also left a deep impact on the top leaders of the Demon Alliance during this meeting.

As a technology-side civilization, the Capricorn Empire was the first to imitate the wizard civilization, and subsequently attracted a large group of professionals to contact Thain and others.

Grand Duke Muridi is indeed a very capable member of the royal family, but in some areas that he is not good at, he also needs to be clarified by other Capricorn Empire professionals.

For example, during the fourth round of negotiations, the "space curvature drive" technology mentioned by a level five mechanic from the Wizarding Civilization made Grand Duke Muridi a little confused.

It is true that he is the commander-in-chief of a dominant war fleet, but it does not mean that Grand Duke Muridi understands the core technology of some cutting-edge technologies used by his fleet.

This is something that scientists in the Capricorn Empire should understand.

What Grand Duke Muridi is really good at is power politics.

Not arithmetic.

With the help of a group of Capricorn Empire scientists and economists who came later, the negotiation process between Grand Duke Muridi and the wizard civilization envoys has become smoother.

In addition to confirming the basic intention of sending troops to assist, the wizard civilization has also deepened cooperation with the Capricorn Empire in the fields of science and technology and economy.

Sean and the wizard civilization are regarded as "saviors" by the Capricorn Empire represented by Grand Duke Muridi.

In a sense, it is not wrong!

If these cooperation negotiations can go smoothly, the Capricorn Empire, which has suffered a lot in recent years, can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Master Sean, I see that you are very young, and we are both humanoid creatures."

"Master, are you interested in marrying a daughter of the royal family of our Capricorn Empire?"

When the negotiations were in full swing, Grand Duke Muridi couldn't help but hold Sean's hand and try to win him over.

Continuous blood marriages are an important means for the royal family of the Capricorn Empire to expand its influence, establish diplomatic relations with foreign countries, and resolve conflicts between the upper and middle classes of civilization.

In the history of the Capricorn Empire, there were some big capitalists of ordinary origin who wanted to take off the lid of the royal family and "change the world" of this civilization.

But the final result was that all the young talents of these technological civilizations were absorbed by the royal family.

A marriage can indeed solve problems in many cases.

Facing Grand Duke Muridi's words that didn't seem to be a joke.

Sean smiled and replied: "I don't think it's necessary."
