Chapter 1930: Agreement requires
Zhao Chen is resting with his eyes closed, leaning back on the sofa.
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, there was finally a knock on the door.
Then came the voice of Zhao Chen's personal guard.
"Your Majesty, the Venerable Civilization Alliance has sent a representative."
You are cordially invited to this afternoon's tea party.
"I understand, please wait a moment," Zhao Chen replied.
He opened his eyes.
The answer seems to be about to be revealed.
Afternoon tea party.
This was a place similar to a grassland, with many plants and animals that Zhao Chen had never seen before.
One of the plants even had a face like a beautiful woman, gazing at Zhao Chen with tender affection.
Zhao Chen paused for a moment.
"This is our beauty flower."
You must be wondering why our ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) Venerable Civilization Alliance, which has no humans, has the face of a beautiful human woman.
This is because the face of the bougainvillea is not fixed.
"It can transform into the appearance of the beautiful person it sees." A voice rang out beside Zhao Chen.
The four Venerable Ones personally greeted Zhao Chen.
"If Your Majesty the Emperor of the Dragon King likes it, this one is yours."
"I've also cultivated some special varieties, which I'll send over later," said the Azure Venerable in a very generous and courteous manner.
Zhao Chen did not refuse these offers.
Zhao Chen could accept gifts such as food, artwork, flowers, and plants.
Just avoid sending gifts to chefs.
The tea party was held in the middle of this meadow.
It was a building with a strong local character, featuring several seats made of colorful stones.
There are exactly five positions.
Zhao Chen and the four Venerables formed a circle.
The coffee table and armrests next to it are also made of naturally formed plants.
To be honest, Zhao Chen quite liked the scenery.
A gentle breeze blew by.
Ring ring ring
Suddenly, the sounds of musical instruments filled the air—like bells, flowing water, and the sound of a zither—and one could almost hear a woman's laughter.
Zhao Chen looked over.
The sound was coming from a flowerbed in one direction.
"That is the spirit of sound."
It is also a type of plant.
There are many kinds of this plant, and when the wind blows, it makes a sound like a musical instrument.
"It sounds wonderful," Venerable Puyu said.
Zhao Chen smiled and nodded, looking at the four Venerable Ones: "You Venerable Ones have extended such a warm invitation, which must mean you already have an answer to my previous suggestion."
"In that case, let's get straight to the point."
Emperor Xiaolong got straight to the point.
The venerable ones did not stand on ceremony.
Shining Venerable, as the representative, spoke directly: "Regarding your previous proposal for rescue..."
We can win.
However, we need to reconsider some of the terms in this document.
The first issue is the scale of the reinforcements.
You proposed 300 million interstellar warships.
I'm very sorry, there are too many of these.
We cannot provide that many interstellar warships at the moment.
Thirty million ships, what do you think?
There are also the costs and damages incurred by interstellar warships during combat, as well as compensation for those who died in the line of duty.
You said you would compensate me according to your request.
On this point, we would like to make a request.
That means doubling your metrics.
After all, this isn't a battle for our Venerable Civilization Alliance; we also need to give some explanation to the various forces under our command.
Instead of going to the battlefield right in front of them, there are still large swathes of lost territory that have not been recovered.
We must travel far to the JF-17 space cluster and join your war.
We need to have a reason to convince our subordinates, right?
Especially at this particular stage.
We may appear to be a united front internally, but in reality, morale is already low.
