Chapter 3485 Peace
Some people say that the main reason why things cannot be done is because the benefits are not to that extent. As long as the benefits are delivered, there is nothing that cannot be done.
This may be true.
I also admit that if Moonlight City can pay enough benefits, let alone the three princesses, even I, as the adopted son of Master Dewey, will be sent to Moonlight City by his own hands.
But the question is, how much benefit does it take to make Master Dewey tempted.
You know, Master Dewey is the most authoritative of the three giants in Fort Wych, and he is the founder and owner of the Dewey business empire.
He has no shortage of power, and he has no shortage of money either. He is not interested in beautiful women. In scientific research, he has reached the pinnacle of the current Zephyr Continent.
What may really be attractive to him are those extremely scarce resources, but the problem is that most of the scarce resources are available in Fort Witch, and they are more abundant than in other countries. There are only some forest resources that need to be obtained from Moonlight City Imports.
However, don’t think that these forest resources can be a trump card to restrict Master Dewey, because other countries whose technological and architectural levels have not reached that level do not have much need for these forest resources. In other words, the real biggest buyer of these forest resources is wichburg.
If Moonlight City wants to threaten Fort Vicky with forest resources, Fort Vicky can interrupt the resource input at any time.
The interruption of the input of forest resources, for Fort Vicky, would at most mean changing to a different architectural style, or terminating some experimental projects, but for Moonlight City, it would mean a large amount of missing funding.
No one has trouble with money, even Moonlight City, which never seems to be short of money.
If the aristocratic group and the national power organization dare to stop exporting forest resources to Fort Witch, it won't take long for the spokespeople of the aristocratic group and the national power organization to be forcibly shuffled.
Therefore, if you want to take away the three princesses from Fort Vicky, you can only exchange them with larger-scale resources. But the problem is that the forest resources that Fort Vicky purchases from Moonlight City every year are already enough. Even if you increase the resources, Input can only increase grain reserves at most.
It's just an increase in reserves, how can its value be compared with that of the three princesses?
After some arguments and arguments, Master Dewey still rejected the proposal of the Moonlight City envoy. Moreover, the Moonlight City envoy also failed to wait for the opportunity to take away the three princesses and had no choice but to leave in anger.
The days that followed were relatively peaceful.
We met many enthusiastic adventurers, and even more friendly adventurers, which made the journey of farming monsters very easy.
However, during this time, the situation in Zephyr Continent has become more tense.
With the addition of Moonlight City, the national war has gradually become more intense, and the number of adventurers killed and injured is also rising.
According to the news passed back by my intelligence network, so far, a quarter of the participants in Moonlight City have been lost.
The reason why there is such a large loss rate is that, on the one hand, the adventurers sent by Moonlight City do not include formal members of the Rose Legion, but ordinary members led by reserve members organized by national forces as team commanders. The overall strength of the adventurers is too weak; on the other hand, because the reserve members of these national power organizations have no experience in participating in large-scale battles, many battles that had a chance of winning were lost by accident.
Based on these reasons, Moonlight City suffered heavy losses in this national war.
However, the aristocratic group and the national power organization did not seem to take this matter seriously. They still recruited adventurers from among the people and sent them to the front lines to fight.
This kind of fill-in combat is the stupidest way of fighting, but for some reason, the aristocratic group and the national power organization chose this stupid way of fighting.
Is it possible that they believe that the population base of Moonlight City is too large and will bring a drag on the comprehensive development of the country, so they want to try to reduce the population through war to achieve their goals?
Of course, the above are just my personal thoughts.
It's a malicious idea.
Speaking of which, what surprised me was that during this period, Elder Mai Sonoda actually contacted me once.
She first asked me about my current situation, then asked me if I had any plans to return to Moonlight City, and finally asked me, what would be my plans if I participated in the war?
After thinking about it for a while, I found that these three questions neither touched the bottom line of privacy nor had anything that made me feel disgusted, so after thinking about it, I answered.
First of all, my life in Fort Vicky is very good. Secondly, I have no plans to return to Moonlight City for the time being. Finally, if I join the war, I will choose to fight against all countries in a personal way.
While answering the last question, what I was thinking about was that, like Fort Vicky, I would appear on the battlefield with a neutral attitude, but unlike Fort Wych, I would end the war with war. If I Participating in the war is purely to participate in the war, for the sake of victory, but also to verify one's personal strength.
I don’t know if my answer satisfies Elder Mai Sonoda, but the last words the elder said before hanging up the call roughly meant that in a few days, Beibei will come to my place to play. I was quite happy to hear this news. happy.
A few days later, Beibei took a magic airship and arrived at Fort Vicky. After seeing me, she happily jumped up and hung her hand around my neck.
I first took her to taste the delicacies of Fort Wych, and then took her to visit various places of interest in Fort Wych. At dusk, I took Beibei back home, and then I was tortured by all my fiancées. .
After learning that Beibei was the granddaughter of Elder Mai Sonoda, my fiancées finally let me go.
The pink and jade-carved Beibei also aroused the love of the fiancées, so the fiancées abandoned me and surrounded Beibei, doting on her in various ways.
The result of pampering was that Beibei's little face was pinched and swollen.
Beibei looked at me with tears in her eyes. I felt pity for her pitiful little appearance, and then she was loved by my fiancées again.
Finally, when it was time to have dinner, Beibei's face was filled with despair.
Fortunately, the sweet taste of the dinner gave Beibei the strength to get up hard and eat a big meal every time.
Beibei, who had regained her strength and energy, was soon led by several little lolita to play in the yard.
Seeing how she was having fun with little Remi and Princess Analetta, it was not difficult to imagine that soon there would be another little devil in the family.
Speaking of which, this is actually understandable. Although Beibei usually looks like a good and obedient child, in fact, she has never been a peaceful person at heart.
