Chapter 167: Desire for Help
Lisen: "Mysterious man? Jeanna, how did you know the mysterious man behind Ken...oh, father-in-law?"
Jeanna: "To be precise, Nagamasa privately spared Ken many times to trade with my father. And Nagamasa used this information in exchange for my father's discount."
Lisen: "I always feel that this discount is a bit unworthy."
Jeanna: "You can only tell my father about this."
When Lisen heard this, he was completely in no mood. If for no other reason, he didn't want to appear in front of his father-in-law often. Enzo's father-in-law always had a bad attitude towards him, so bad that he was completely in no mood to talk to his father-in-law.
As for the mysterious man, Lisen himself could actually guess it.
The Japanese Mai people were behind the scenes.
But for the sake of interests, Lisen, like Enzo's father-in-law, would not tell any black-haired dog-headed man in the Takagi Kingdom.
After all, the more chaotic this country is, the better. If it is chaotic, it will not be an obstacle to the Negan Empire.
You should know that the Negan Empire has been officially assisting the Orchid Republic, the northwesternmost part of the Neoland continent, in its northern expedition, trying to completely wipe out the Soul Terminator on the northern ice continent and the surrounding demon base camps. As long as the Gaomu Kingdom, which is sandwiched in the middle of the route, does not cause trouble, it will be a great help to the Negan Empire.
As for letting the black-haired dog-headed people of the Gaomu Kingdom assist in the northern expedition to defeat the demons and cultists on the northern ice...
It's good that they didn't piss and piss before seeing the appearance of the demons.
Not to mention that the demons have extremely powerful magic power, and physical fitness far beyond most intelligent life forms on this planet, as well as weird technology that this planet can't have at all...
Especially the last one, weird technology.
The demons have a very deep study of the spirit and even the soul of intelligent life. They know how to corrupt the spirit of those with weak wills, and they know how to materialize the spiritual consciousness of intelligent life forms-that is, what everyone calls spells or magic power.
However, compared with the Negan Empire and the United Kingdom of Eri, the demons' favorite means of attack is mental attack.
For example, at the North Pole of the planet, the function of the mind-termination device they built can turn all the intelligent races on the planet who have no mental spell resistance and no ability to resist spell power into zombies with glowing eyes.
Therefore, if the Orchid Republic had not deliberately stolen the neurotoxin, at least 83% of the intelligent races in the world would be controlled by the demon race's mind-termination device and unconditionally become cannon fodder under the control of the demon race.
Moreover, the demon race's mind-termination device still uses the magnetic track generated by the geomagnetic field to carry out absolute control at all times. Therefore, if the world wants to return to normal, the mind-termination device must be destroyed.
Otherwise, it is unknown how long it will take to inject neurotoxins, and the raw materials of neurotoxins cannot be supplied in sufficient quantities in a short period of time.
Not to mention who in the world would take the initiative to inject a toxin that has a certain erosion on the nerves and requires the person being injected to have a very strong will.
As for some idiot races who are so stupid that they don't even know what a vaccine is, and they raise the banner of opposition at the last minute.
To be honest, the Negan Empire will not care about their lives.
If they died, they would probably make a great contribution to greening the environment.
Especially some people who dislike vegetarianism and think that meat is the way to go, but end up with fat pigs that look like beer barrels.
These guys are raw materials that can only be sent to sawmills for decomposition and then sent to fertilizer plants for cultivation in the Negan Empire.
Of course, precisely because it wants to fight against the demons, the Negan Empire does not need any weak-minded guys to go north. There are too many cases of weak-minded weak people kneeling down to serve as servants when they see the demons and actively becoming cultists.
Maybe this is why in the Orchid Republic, cultists need to be sent to atomic weapons test sites for destruction.
Thoroughly harmless treatment.
So, taking advantage of the good opportunity now, the Negan Empire also needs to do a lot of things that cannot be done in peacetime.
Some stupid guys need to be eliminated.
But think about it carefully, even if these guys are not now, they will kill each other for various reasons.
Especially in terms of what kind of gods they believe in, everyone's enthusiasm for killing each other is not ordinary high.
Jenna: "In fact, in my opinion, the black-haired kobolds are not as bad as everyone says, right?"
Jenna: "All the cultists wear burning helmets, which can burn any object within the sight range. Considering the flammable hair on the black-haired kobolds, they go up to fight the cultists in the Arctic ice field... uh, the smell of the grilled kobolds is probably unbearable for everyone."
Jenna: "The same goes for the gray-haired kobolds."
Lisen: "The gray-haired kobolds of the Orchid Republic are not as weak as the black-haired kobolds. Their fighting power is no less than that of humans among all the intelligent races in the world. We, the guys called the Dark Elf, may not be able to defeat them. Moreover, the quality of the Orchid Republic's army is first-class among all the great powers."
Jenna: "So strong?"
Lisen: "Under the influence of republican thought, their democracy, equality, freedom, and republican ideas will make their army burst out with quite strong fighting power. After all, there is a sentence in their national anthem that the defenders of the republic are invincible."
Jenna: "Uh..."
Indeed.
Although the Orchid Republic was not the first republic to appear in the world, it was definitely a tough one. One hundred years after its founding, it fought a hundred-year war with the Akitsu Empire, which led to a civil war across the country and was eventually forced to withdraw its troops and admit defeat.
So much so that in the textbooks of the Negan Empire today, the Orchid Guards are used to refer to the brave warriors who will never surrender, praising what is the true iron-willed spirit.
Therefore, the cultists and the demons they manipulated behind the scenes also suffered a great sin - being killed by atomic weapons.
If the Negan Empire had not negotiated with the Orchid Republic many times, the Orchid Republic would definitely launch their most terrifying hydrogen bomb at all costs.
Once this weapon is released, no one knows whether this planet will experience more terrible climate phenomena, or even the terrifying thing of the continental shelf shifting.
Once the continental shelf shifts, it is a precursor that is enough to make the countries on the Neoland continent face disasters.
If the officials of the Negan Empire did not make a mistake in their predictions, it is estimated that even the demons would not want to see such a thing.
In short, although the Northern Expedition will continue, it does not mean that any cannon fodder can go up.
Moreover, the black-haired dog-headed people still maintain a primitive dialectical attitude towards things, whether they listen to them or not, and whether they can work. How can they understand the importance of this matter?
Anyway, Li Sen thought about it himself. If he helped the Japanese people to split the diplomatic relations between the Akitsu Empire and the Takagi Kingdom, does that mean that the Japanese people also have the opportunity to participate in the Northern Expedition against the Demons and destroy the Soul Terminator after completing the recovery of lost territory?
If the Japanese people join the war, then the Orchid Republic, the Negan Empire, and the Krurod Empire will form a three-nation alliance...
This is a good idea.
But the question is, is the current emperor of the Japanese people willing to let his country's army travel thousands of miles north?
According to the information that Li Sen knew, this emperor is a guy who puts the Japanese people first. He has never cared about what happened in other countries, and in his opinion, the lives of the Japanese people are what he cares about most.
So Lisen can be sure that if this emperor named Zelun really drives the Akitsu Empire out, the next five to ten years will most likely be a period of rest and recuperation.
To put it bluntly, it means having more children and restoring human resources will definitely become Zelun's priority. Therefore, Lisen himself hopes that Emperor Zelun must change his mind and take the initiative to help Neolande's Northern Expedition.
But here comes the problem.
This Emperor Zelun must have enough benefits to make him take the initiative to participate in the Tripartite Alliance. At the same time, with his help, it will be easier for him to solve the problem of the black-haired dog-headed prisoners of war.
After all, the sale of prisoners of war is illegal...
