Two days later, Lied took Tethis and three hundred low giants and left the Lonely Night Territory.
The Riwei sent two executives to accompany them, carrying the warrant of Lord Lingwu. The route was also well planned, and basically they took the territory that had no deep hatred with Lingwu.
Lord Lingwu handled the relationship between the two very artistically. She issued a document at the same time, to the effect that even if a force like Yuxi City, which has always been against her, made a contribution to the Lingwu territory, she would also Don't hesitate to reward.
This sentence basically expresses two points of view:
First, this giant family was rewarded by the Lingwu Territory to Yuxi City. Whoever dares to stop halfway is tantamount to forming a relationship with the Lingwu Territory. You see, if I beat you when I go south, it will be over.
Second, Li De has nothing to do with our Lingwu Territory, and even used to sing against me. Although I sent him back this time, I might beat him up next time we meet. Let's see how to stand in line.
In this way, she basically has nothing to do with Lide. Of course, Li De can bring the giants back to Yuxi City smoothly, and then what happened in the past will be like in the future. Lingwu has not added a troublesome younger brother, and the previous diplomatic strategy of Yuxi City can continue to be used. The two sides were like two martial arts masters passing by each other, and after a few moves, they still went their separate ways.
It's just three hundred low-level giants plus one beautiful high-level giant. This combination is still very greedy after looking at many territories. Although these lords and retainers are not as far-sighted as Li De, they have the ability to follow the trend: since Lord Lingwu personally approved such rewards, and since Li De has traveled thousands of miles to transport them back to Yuxi City, there is no need Maybe some useless ornamental creatures? If you think about it again, you can clearly understand the magical effects of many giants.
So Lide's journey home is actually very long. Every time he arrives in a territory, he will be invited to drink tea and talk about whether he can transfer some low-level giants to them. Every territory is willing to pay a high price. Lied's answer was simple, basically what Kronos told him:
"Look, there are many low-level giants, but I'll give them to you, and you can't command them. There is only one high-level giant, and I must give priority to transporting it back to my home. But don't worry, my friends, we will soon be able to move to Yuxi City. A special outsourcing team will be set up, you can hire from us, as long as the money is in place, it will be a one-stop service for door-to-door construction... "
After finishing this, don’t forget to add some private goods:
"By the way, have you heard of the Succubus Museum? Recently, several territories such as Yunhai have opened, and they are very popular. We also have channels to open chain stores here. Feel free to contact us if you need it. What, brothel? Cough, This is more exciting than a brothel. In a dream, you can play as you like, and it will not cause any harm to your body. You will only understand the fun after experiencing it... "
Anyway, each family has a similar set of rhetoric, so they went back to Yuxi City all the way.
…
Lingwu Territory.
The tall giants Kerns and Siberion stood in the snowstorm on the outskirts of the city. The younger Kerns yawned and said to his brother:
"I also want to go to the south... I came to the human side, but I can only stay in the coldest Lingwu. It's really frustrating. What's so good about this place, I feel that it's almost as cold as ours."
Siberion smiled and replied:
"Be patient, there are benefits to being here. What's more, there are always people who want to stay."
Kerns folded his hands behind his head, looked at the majestic city wall of Lingwu Territory, and said:
"However, that human named Lide was really busy. After so much tossing around, most of the profits were finally picked up by that woman. Sigh... At first, he thought it was quite interesting, and he dared to come alone. We have come to the palace of the giants twice, how courageous it is! But when we return to the human side, we have to follow those rules and regulations, I don’t know what he thinks.”
Siberion put away the smile on his face, pulled his younger brother to sit down on a flat rock, and said:
"Don't underestimate human beings... Kerns. This game is more complicated than you think, and it's the result of many compromises."
Siberion paused, and continued:
"First of all, the giant race has fought against humans too many times. We have killed too many Lingwu soldiers, and Lingwu has killed too many of our people. Even if we stay in Lingwu, there will definitely be differences in our future work. There are all kinds of frictions, and if you are not careful, you may face the risk of breaking up the cooperation. So you and I stay here and let Tethis go to the safe south, this is the idea of the elder brother."
Kerns nodded, and Siberion continued:
"For that woman named Lord Lingwu, although she really wanted to detain all of our people for her own use, it was impossible. This place is too close to our territory, and she has to consider us taking the initiative to tear up the agreement. risk. So after talking to us one by one, she confirmed that Tethis is the one we cherish the most, and sent her to the south as a hostage."
After thinking for a while, Kerns nodded again.
Siberion sighed, looked at the lowly giants who were busy moving things in the wind and snow, and said:
"In the end, it's Lid's idea. He should be very clear about how the situation will go, so he doesn't mind leaving us in Lingwu Territory. He is very confident... don't look at him only taking Tesis and Sanbai away When the lowly giants arrive in his territory, these people will play a greater role than us. Tethis has a soft personality and a simple mind, and will help him complete the work with all his heart, unlike us who have many ideas of our own. So in fact, he has already got what he wants, and the rest is lost if he loses it."
Kerns curled his lips and said:
"Indeed. No matter how he killed Kleiners, he was kind to us. And the Lingwu Territory has been fighting us for so many years. When I think of doing things for them, I feel unhappy. Look at the so-called Princes and ministers, look at us like they look at slaves, they don't take us seriously at all!"
Siberion smiled slightly and said calmly:
"Then work slowly. Our efficiency is only known to us anyway. Save time and find opportunities to learn more about human culture. Take a look at their military formations and their training rules... One day we will Useful. Kerns, you remember, there is no eternal strong and no eternal weak in the world. We giants are born with powerful talents, but we have always relied too much on our innate strength. It's not good...”
He looked into the distance, where there were farmers wielding their hoes and starting to work hard, there were trackers stepping on the ice with bare feet and shouting to pull the rope, and there were businessmen shivering from the north wind while wiping their sweat... They live on this land, and there seems to be infinite energy in their small bodies.
Siberion narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice:
"Lead said that he would give our giant race a road that has never been imagined. I have thought about it these days, and I think what he said may not be just signing a covenant. In places we can't see, human beings have built a road that belongs to us. Their great civilization. Now that we are here, we have to learn it from our own hands... so that one day we can completely defeat them."
