"I don't know, what is His Majesty Dane's so-called sufficient price?"

The voice of His Majesty the Pope, coming through the communication spell, appeared slightly distorted. However, that kind of heartwarming and warm feeling can still make people feel relaxed.

Dane wouldn't take that.

Since His Majesty the Pope opened his mouth and asked Dane to put forward the conditions first, he was not polite at all: "First, all the murderers who participated in this operation must be handed over, and we will judge according to our laws."

Dane came up with the first one first.

After such a long time, he probably figured out who had attacked Dane's undead military camp before.

It was a young knight named Rick, a branch leader of the Knights Templar, with sixteenth-level strength.

His own status is not low, but this is not the key. The most important thing is that he is the head of the Knights Templar, the grandson of Paladin Richard, known as the super genius of the Holy Empire, and the pillar of the future Knights. This is the most important information obtained by the Black Hand Academy, and it is also a good weight that Dane thinks can be used to test the attitude of the Holy Empire.

Not many people participated in that attack, only about three hundred people.

But they are all members of the Knights Templar, and only an elite team like the Knights Templar can quickly, in a very short period of time, with only half the manpower of the undead camp. Complete the mission of annihilation operation.

The Knights Templar is known as the number one knight order in the mainland, and the total number of members is only three or four thousand, which is quite powerful. According to the evaluation, these Templar knights will definitely not be able to beat Dane's champion knight in the same number, but they can still win against Dane's Templar knight.

Therefore, Rick, who was not low in status and special, together with a group of three hundred Templar knights, became a good weight for Dane to test the attitude of the Holy Empire.

Doesn't your holy empire want to calm down? Hand over all these people and see if you dare.

The Holy Empire dares.

"I can agree to your request."

This was slightly beyond Dane's expectations.

His thinking became active. Since even these people can be sacrificed, it seems that the bottom line of the Holy Empire is very low.

"I want Changlu County, Apukat area, and Melincha area." Dane opened his mouth directly.

Not to mention Changlu County, the Apucate region and the Melincha region were once the territory of the Second Caesar Empire. Two or three hundred years ago, when the Second Caesar Empire collapsed, the Holy Empire took the opportunity to swallow these two regions into its stomach.

These are two rather large places. Added up, they are almost as big as the Pudley Kingdom.

If the Holy Empire handed over these two regions, it would almost mean that they handed over a quarter of the existing land for no reason.

"No way."

This is definitely unacceptable to the Holy Empire. Even if they really fought an all-out war with Schindler, they would never accept the condition of ceding a quarter of the land.

Dane said: "You said it was impossible? What if I said I must? Your Majesty the Pope, can you stop my army?"

The pope was silent for a while, and said: "No matter whether it can be stopped or not, if Your Majesty Dane, if you never back down on this request, then the only way for the Holy Empire to resist is war."

His voice was very quiet, just stating a fact.

Dane said: "There is nothing to talk about in Changlu County. I must. The entire territory of Pudley must be under my control."

"it is good."

"I also want the Apukat area, but I can give up Melincha."

"No, I can only give you the whole of Pudli at most. It is impossible for the Holy Empire to split its own land and give it to other countries. This is also our bottom line."

Dane shook his head and said: "Don't forget, Apukat and Melincha are not the inherent land of your Holy Empire. It is the inherent territory of the Caesar Empire, which was occupied by you two hundred and seventy years ago Land! And I am working to restore the glory of the Caesar Empire. If I can regain the Apcart area in a non-war way, then I can accept it. But if your Holy Empire cannot even agree to this, then Only soldiers meet each other."

"Your Majesty Dane, don't push yourself too far! We just signed the contract a month and a half ago! At the beginning, we agreed to use Changlu County as the border, and after the Church of the Damned is eliminated, we will not invade each other!"

Now, His Majesty the Great Pope could no longer maintain his composure, and his tone became a little angry.

Dane sneered.

In fact, he didn't take the agreement he signed earlier at all seriously.

At that time, what Dane thought was to get rid of the Church of the Damned first, and then restore the stability of the Pudli area as soon as possible. Then, when he has the opportunity, he will definitely continue to attack the Holy Empire.

Under the premise of having a huge military power, Dane still has the ambition to be crowned emperor, of course he can't calm down like this.

However, no one expected that this opportunity would come so soon. I really want to thank Rick and the group of young men under his command.

In fact, to be honest, Dane didn't care about the loss of more than 600 undead at all. Dane's goal is to seize the opportunity to press the Holy Empire.

Of course, these words cannot be said on the table.

"It was you who broke the covenant first. The bones of my 600 subordinates are still unburied in the camp."

"That's just some filthy undead creatures!"

"I respect you, His Majesty the Pope, but please pay attention to your words. Those are my soldiers and my subjects. If you use words like 'filth' to describe them, we will no longer have the need to negotiate."

In the entire continent, there are probably not many people who dare to talk to the Holy Pope like this. And in the past few decades, it is estimated that the Holy Pope has never seen him before, and someone would dare to face himself with such an attitude.

He was in a bad mood, but facing Dane, he still had to endure it.

He said: "We will not discuss this issue. It is absolutely impossible to completely hand over the Kapnos area to you. At most, you can only give you the forest water and lakeside."

Linshui Lakeside is a place belonging to the Kapnos area, the area is not small, the land is fertile, and it is an excellent production area.

Ken handing over Linshui Lakeside has actually proved the sincerity of the Holy Empire in this matter.

But, how can the insatiable Dane be satisfied? He will never be reconciled if he does not get the entire Kapnos region!

The recent update is not very good, mainly because the preparation of the book is finished, and the ending is not very good. In addition, the new book is also being prepared, so I apologize to everyone~~
