Working Prophet

Short Tail Town was originally just an inconspicuous small town in the south of the Crescent Land, but three months after Ilea regained the Golden Valley, three emperors suddenly poured into it.

What's even more strange is that twenty days ago, the troops under the three men were still beating heads and bleeding, but now the three of them are sitting at the same table.

Claudio's territory was the farthest away, and he was also the last to arrive, bringing a chill with him when he entered the house.

The young emperor took off his ermine cloak and handed it to his attendant, who then pulled out a chair for him.

But not long after Claudio sat down, Conley, not far away, threw a bag of things.

When Claudio opened it, he found that what was inside was a tongue, a bloody human tongue.

Claudio was startled and almost couldn't hold the bag steady. Then he became angry and said in a deep voice, "What does this mean?"

"Some people forget their oaths. Since they don't care about the words coming out of their mouths, there's no use keeping their tongues." Conley said lightly.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"These tongues come from the New World. You should have met their owners."

Claudio was shocked when he heard this, but he looked at the number of tongues in the bag and saw that there were only four or five, so he felt relieved again.

Conley didn't know where he heard the news that someone was planning to betray him. Fortunately, he didn't know how many traitors there were. In the end, he should only have found four or five people.

But in fact, Claudio has met more than twenty envoys during this period. He has basically been in contact with all the lords of the New World, and has almost reached an agreement.

But Claudio still pretended to be angry on the surface and said.

"I don't care where these tongues come from, and I have never met their owner. Get these disgusting things away from me!"

Conley sneered when he heard this, but finally asked his attendant to take the bag back.

The atmosphere in the room had already become a little tense before the three of them officially started discussing the alliance.

As the master, Allister felt that he should say something at this time, but before he could speak, Conley said again.

"Where is the priestess next to you? Why didn't she come?"

"Are you talking about Priest Cornelia? She was originally going to come, but she had something important to deal with temporarily, so..."

"Is there anything more important now than defeating that West Country bumpkin?" Claudio also asked.

"I don't know, that's the will of the goddess of life."

"In that case, if we reach an agreement, how do I know whether your person will abide by the agreement honestly?"

"What do you mean?" Allister's face also darkened. He hated hearing others say that he was Cornelia or Schroeder's puppet.

And Conley's words just now obviously imply that he can't make the decision.

Conley said expressionlessly, "Don't get me wrong, it's just that I heard that you and your people are all believers of that goddess of life. What if the goddess of life tells you to break the agreement, so you'd better give Cornelia to Find it."

"I said, I can make the decision here." Allister said word for word, "Not even the goddess of life can change what I promised."

"That's good." Conley didn't insist anymore.

But then he heard Allister continue, "You and the people in your territory are now believers of the sky god Gaiya, so why not give up your position to the female winged tribesman named Lanita? , let her come and talk to us directly."

Conley also frowned. He knew that this was Allister's counterattack against him, and he was indeed the spokesperson supported by the Wing Tribe people at the beginning.

He would do whatever Lanita said, but as his power grew stronger and his position became more secure, the status of both parties gradually began to change.

Conley actually has a dream in his heart, to leave behind the Winged Tribe people and become the actual ruler of this continent, a founding emperor like Alessandro the Furious Lion.

But he just thought about this idea in his mind. Conley's current situation is not good. Although he occupies the Red Plains and owns Lionheart Castle, he has been attacked from both sides. He has to withstand Allister from the north, and To deal with Claudio's harassment in the south.

If it weren't for those Wing Tribe people and their two-headed dragons, he would have been unable to hold on long ago.

But now that the Elk Valley is gone, he has to face Ilea head-on. The pressure is the greatest among the three parties. At this time, it is even more impossible to part ways with the Wing Tribe people.

Therefore, Conley said, "Lady Lanita and I came to Short Tail Town together. If we want to defeat Ilea and her Western Army, we cannot do without Lady Lanita's army and the two dragons.

"If you want to talk to her, I can invite her over."

"If the rumors about Ilea are true, then the sky may be the only place where we can have an advantage against her." Claudio also said at this time.

"But we can talk about the specific military matters later. Let's talk about the alliance first."

With his words, the originally tense atmosphere in the room finally relaxed a little.

In fact, the reason why the three of them were willing to sit at the same table was that they all planned to join forces. However, the three of them had accumulated a lot of conflicts after fighting for so long.

Even the two brothers Claudio and Allister seemed to be in harmony on the surface, but secretly they were often stumbling upon each other.

Before, the nobles of the Crescent Land united to fight Allister, and there was the shadow of the Second Sons Alliance behind them. But now the whole continent is crazy about Claudio's love for men. This kind of palace secret is obviously not something Conley can know. .

But no matter how much hatred everyone had before, facing a powerful enemy, they can only be put aside temporarily.

Allister had originally prepared a speech and planned to make an opening statement, but Conley had already gone straight to the point.

"I can accept cooperation, provided you agree to my conditions."

"What conditions?" Allister was a little unhappy to be interrupted, but he still said.

"While we work together, the three of us need to stop the war."

"That's for sure." Claudio said without hesitation.

Allister also nodded, "Yes, our number one enemy now is Ilea and her Western Army. Of course, we can't fight anymore."

“Maintain existing boundaries and land demarcations,” Conley continued.

Claudio was a little hesitant this time, because he had already negotiated with the lords of the New World, and he was about to take that land into his arms.

But if he signs a contract with Conley, he won't be able to eat this piece of fat.
