257 A Transaction 【Ask for a Monthly Pass~】
“Thank you for your help, King Elan.”
Luo Ning put away the sheepskin scroll, and he has silently recorded the position of that point.
Hearing that, the old king just waved his hands again and again.
“I’m the lord of the city now, and I’m no longer a king…”
“Don’t you just want to change the name of ‘Ilan King City’ to ‘Ilan Kingdom’? The old king.”
Luo Ning’s sudden cry of ‘old king’ caught the old king off guard.
He was startled for a moment, then laughed.
“Luonin…!”
Although Maria was not Luo Ning’s mentor, and her principal status naturally couldn’t suppress Luo Ning, but this did not prevent her from teaching a young man who did not understand etiquette.
Luo Ning smiled at her sideways.
His smile was very light, but in Maria’s opinion… it could be understood as a kind of reassurance.
Is he willing to help Yilan King City?
Maria felt incredible for a moment.
They haven’t made a serious face to discuss the conditions, nor have they talked about any details… But why did the atmosphere suddenly become relaxed?
“Hahaha… You are really interesting. If I were a few decades younger, I would probably make friends with you, but unfortunately now… people are all old and half-dead.”
The old king’s tone suddenly became quite relaxed.
Luo Ning shook his head, disapproving of his idea: “Even if you are ninety-nine years younger, then you are two hundred years old, so…let’s say goodbye, I’m only eighteen, old king.”
“eighteen?!”
Maria on the side was not calm.
Luo Ning looked back at her.
“Isn’t it, sister?”
“No, no, you are indeed very young in appearance… But, if you are 18 years old, is there really someone who can become a great magician of this strength at 18?”
Maria was stunned and looked at Lonin in disbelief.
But she seemed to hear another strange thing from Luo Ning’s words.
“Sister??? Do you know how old I am, you call me sister!”
“Then, Auntie?”
“Call the principal!”
Luo Ning shrugged: “I didn’t attend your Santa Zemaria College again.”
“Then you should also respectfully call the principal!”
Maria didn’t have the tone of the headmaster admonishing the students at all at this time, but the rushing tone seemed a little childish.
“No.” Luo Ning refused.
Maria’s mouth twitched slightly, and her high heels hurriedly stepped back and forth on the ground.
Luo Ning walked down the steps, walked to the other end, and brought a chair in the corner.
Maria even thought he was going to leave like this, and was looking at him nervously, only to see Luo Ning coming back in a circle.
As soon as he put the chair down, he sat down straight in front of the old king.
The two of them sat facing each other in this audience room as if they were drinking afternoon tea.
Anyway, he is a person from another world. He can’t learn the etiquette of this world, the humble attitude towards kings, emperors and demons.
Luo Ning’s elbow rested on his knee at will, and it seemed that he planned to have a long discussion with the old king.
“I’ll just say it straight.” Luo Ning has always been informal.
His suddenly serious expression made the atmosphere here dignified again.
The old king nodded slowly.
Luo Ning didn’t leave directly, he was already surprised.
“I’ll help you keep the King City of Yilan, but you have to promise me a condition.”
“Tell me.” The old king’s expression also became serious.
The two looked at each other, and Luo Ning organized the language in his mind.
“If after that, your ‘Ilan King City’ successfully broke free from the claws of the empire and changed back to the ‘Ilan Kingdom’, I need you to occupy it here, isolate the demons and the empire, and don’t let the empire set foot on the territory of the demons. “
“The empire can’t even enter the demon’s territory now…”
“You don’t need to worry so much, I just need you to promise me this.” Lorning paused, then added:
“If you can, I also hope that you can provide me with information on the Empire’s treatment of the demons. The more detailed the better.”
Luo Ning actually thought a lot.
The Kingdom of Elan… No, it should be said to be the Kingdom of Elan.
He is the kingdom closest to the human frontier to the Demon Territory.
Almost all human beings have to pass through the kingdom of Elan if they want to enter the territory of the demons from their own territory.
And if Luo Ning can pull the kingdom of Ilan over to be a so-called ‘ally’, then it will be almost difficult for the empire to move the big cake of the demons.
Luo Ning can completely regard the Kingdom of Elan as a natural defensive place for the demons.
Wouldn’t it be a huge profit to be able to make the old king of the Elan Kingdom a human spy for himself.
Aside from other aspects, if Luo Ning can really support this kingdom, then this is definitely the most useful piece for him.
The saying ‘the enemy of the enemy is the friend’ is quite true.
The biggest enemy of the Elan Kingdom in the current situation is undoubtedly the Crotal Empire.
And the biggest enemy of the Crotal Empire is nothing more than the entire Demon Race.
Such an ‘alliance’ relationship can be built up, helping each other, and the situation is a win-win situation.
But such a relationship cannot be put on the table.
Luo Ning will not tell the old king his true identity and purpose.
This kind of news that he is a demon will still be too abrupt for them, and it may not be good for them to know the natural panic about the demon.
What’s more, if this kind of thing spread to the ears of other kingdoms, wouldn’t the Elan Kingdom become a recognized ‘traitor’. this is not good.
“Our Elan Kingdom itself doesn’t have much interest in the Demon Race’s territory, and we can’t protect ourselves, how can we care about others… In recent years, the Empire has also sent people to and from the Demon Race frequently, so we took us by the way. This small and remote country is in the bag.”
“I can agree to your request without hesitation, but I’m still curious… What is your purpose for doing this?”
“You know, if you help us… not only you, but also your hometown may be hated by the empire.”
After listening to the sincere words of the old king, Luo Ning even felt a little helpless.
Isn’t what the old king should do now to try to persuade him to help? It’s strange that he doesn’t persuade him or even starts to persuade him in reverse.
“Of course I know that.” Luo Ning nodded.
“To talk about my purpose…”
“My purpose is actually very simple.”
Luo Ning leaned back on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
“I may have the same idea as most of life, the purpose is to change the dynasty of this empire.”
Maybe the old king couldn’t understand why Lorning used the word ‘life’.
Because not only the human race and the demon race, but also the elf race threatened by the land, the harassed dragon race… Most of these races hated the Crotal Empire.
“You want to destroy the entire empire…?!”
Maria looked at Lonin in surprise.
Luo Ning smiled helplessly: “How many people have to die.”
“What I want to do is very simple…kill Crotal III and replace the empire with a new emperor.”
