Chapter 2655 Spear and Shield

"Shake hands and make peace?"

Looking at the old Duke's confident smile, I chuckled and said, "Are you dreaming?"

The old Duke's expression suddenly froze.

After a while, he looked unkind and said, "It seems like you kid hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter."

"I realized it," I said calmly, "That's why I brought my allies here."

After hearing what I said, the old Duke's face suddenly darkened: "Are you threatening me?"

"Yes" I nodded and said, "I'm just threatening you."

"Those who threaten me never end well!" He said coldly.

"Those who trust you will really not end well." I retorted disdainfully: "During my time in Dashai City, the only thing I was ashamed of was trusting you. I kept trusting you, but then you abandoned me in the face of disaster, treating me as an abandoned son, and completely refusing to save me."

"Fortunately, I have a great destiny. Fortunately, I have seen through your heart. I am even more fortunate that I did not foolishly continue to trust you. This way I can live longer and better."

The old Duke shook his head sadly and said in a deep voice: "You are overthinking. I did not abandon you. It was just that the situation was critical and I had no time to take care of myself. How could I save you?"

"I am not blind, nor a fool. Old Duke, you and your bodyguards were in the vacuum of the battlefield at that time. They were very close to me and were not affected by the battle. How could you not save me?" I sneered. Twice, he said again: "Unless you don't want to save me."

The old Duke did not continue to quibble, because it was meaningless. After getting along with him for a period of time, he had a deep understanding of my character. I am actually a very simple person. I either retaliate now or retaliate later. In short, it is hatred. Once formed, it is difficult to change.

After a long silence, the old Duke asked: "Dasai City is now attracting the attention of all countries. If you take action rashly at this time, Moonlight City will inevitably be hostile to other countries. Do you really not care?"

I frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Even if I don't take action, will Moonlight City be able to live in peace with other countries?"

Having said this, I couldn't help but laugh: "You wouldn't believe it even if I said this, huh, before forming an alliance with the giant dragon, Moonlight City had already been hostile and guarded by many countries, and now it is with the giant dragon. The dragons have become allies, and the top management of Moonlight City are already prepared to face the cold loneliness at high places."

"So don't worry about it, we're going to be fine, and it's going to get better and better."

"So, Moonlight City is planning to become an enemy of Dashai City?"

The old Duke said calmly.

"If you think so, it's not impossible." I replied without any fear: "But everyone knows that Moonlight City loves justice and peace. For example, in this Japanese Wind Competition, seven of the top ten They are from other countries, and Moonlight City only occupies three places.”

The old Duke looked uncertain. After a moment, he asked, "What do you want? Money? Fame? Beauty? Or status?"

I looked at the old Duke with contempt, feeling disdainful of the conditions he proposed.

The old Duke's endurance skills are considered to be the best among the superiors. After feeling the strong contempt from me, he did not get angry. He just took a deep breath and asked: "Since you are not interested in these, please get straight to the point and explain your thoughts. Say what you want."

"I want three."

"What three?"

"First, ensure the absolute safety of Cagalli's family."

"Can."

"Second, ensure the absolute safety of the orc high priest."

"Can."

"Third, give Elder Taylor his freedom."

"I did not restrict Elder Taylor's personal freedom. The reason why he stayed in Dashai City was to promote friendly exchanges between the two countries."

The old Duke told lies shamelessly.

I only sneered in response to his nonsense.

If I had come for peace talks this time, I might not be able to do anything about his rogue behavior, but I am not here for peace talks this time, but to negotiate terms.

If we can't reach an agreement, I will immediately turn my back, close the door and let Spitz go, and spray this guy's loyal subordinates to death. Then we will talk again, and if we can't reach an agreement, I will spray him again, until he is the only one left to spray.

You ask me why I don’t take this opportunity to eradicate the root cause?

The answer is simple. Without the die-hard old Duke, he is just a bare commander and will be counterattacked and killed by the forces he bullies at any time.

This is the most basic rule of the Zephyr Continent - the weak eat the strong.

But I won't do it unless I have to.

Because the dragon is the trump card, once the trump card is revealed, no matter how strong the trump card is, humans will use their powerful wisdom to come up with various ways to restrict it.

I don't want my cards to be countered, so I won't let Spitz go on a killing spree easily.

But it is still possible to apply small punishments. For example, spray a breath of dragon's breath on the wall to melt a corner.

I sneered three times and said calmly: "Since you have not placed Elder Taylor under house arrest, can you allow the elder to come here to meet me?"

The old Duke smiled politely and said: "This is Elder Taylor's freedom, I have no right to interfere."

The attitude is obvious. If Taylor is willing to see me, he will definitely come to see me, but the prerequisite is that I must be able to meet him.

After thinking for a moment, I smiled back and said, "Okay, I understand."

The old Duke laughed triumphantly.

However, the next second, his smile turned into shock.

A turbid and fishy dragon's breath was sprayed out without warning and shot towards the corner of the city wall.

In the next second, a corner of the huge city wall, which was more than a foot thick, was corroded away by a foot.

After stopping the dragon's breath, Spitz wiped the corner of his mouth, looked at the corner of the disappeared city wall with an unkind look, and murmured: "If the city walls of other countries were so rubbish back then, His Majesty's journey would not stop at this mere corner. The Celestial Clan.”

As soon as these words came out, the old Duke shuddered and said in a voiceless voice: "What are you doing?"

Spitz ignored him, and I smiled and said: "Don't get me wrong, Elder Taylor is indifferent by nature and likes to be quiet. If he doesn't make some noise, he will never show up. Oh, I have no choice but to do so, but don't worry. , I will pay you the full cost of repairing this city wall, not even a copper coin will be missing."

The old Duke's face was extremely ugly. He wanted to have an attack, but he didn't dare to. He just stood there gnashing his teeth and didn't react for a long time.

I happily waited for the old Duke's rebuttal, but the evil dragon Spitz couldn't wait any longer. The next second, he opened his bloody mouth again, and a stream of turbid and smelly dragon breath spurted out.

The target this time is the city gate.

This tall and heavy city gate is made of fine steel and is very strong. It is unknown whether it is high-grade fine steel, medium-grade fine steel, or low-grade fine steel.

The dragon's breath is like a spear, and the city gate is like a shield. This time the spear and the shield collide, who is stronger or weaker?
