From Lord to Dimensional Demon - Chapter 417

c417 A skilled envoy

“It should be able to survive for a while, or even seek a small expansion.”

This is the conclusion Shen Fei came to after reading the situation analysis report.

In fact, this report has already explained it.

At least in the short term, as long as the Dark Night Kingdom does not take the initiative to do something too eye-catching, it will not attract extra attention from the Hao Luo Dynasty.

Not to mention the Dark Night Kingdom, even the Storm Kingdom, which is openly in conflict with the Hao Luo Dynasty, has not actually received real attention.

Otherwise, the Hao Luo Dynasty only needs to gather a large number of level 17 powerhouses in a short period of time, and the Storm Kingdom will have no choice but to retreat to other worlds.

Since it can still survive, then survive.

Shen Fei saw clearly that the land occupied by the Hao Luo Dynasty was the real place to decide the outcome, and before that it was actually a development stage.

Everything should be based on development.

In addition to the hard indicators of the extraordinary level, the growth of resources and technology is also very important. In this regard, the entire Menghong World is a huge treasure house. Just developing the territory that has been occupied now requires a lot of time and energy.

At present, the amount of resources developed is less than one percent.

Apart from other things, dozens of rare resource veins have been discovered, and there are hundreds of known veins that have not yet been developed.

It is unknown how many unknown resources there are. Even the natives who have occupied these territories for millions of years dare not say that they have mastered every piece of land.

Therefore, even if the external development is postponed, it will not have any impact on the development of the territory and the kingdom – at most it will affect Shen Fei’s efficiency in obtaining new treasure chests.

But as long as other kingdoms cannot be occupied, these treasure chests still belong to him in Shen Fei’s eyes.

In this way, Shen Fei continued to practice in seclusion after instructing Li Tingyu to develop at full speed.

However, this time the seclusion did not last too long. It was only less than two months before he was urgently called out.

“What happened?” Shen Fei sat in the office and looked at Li Tingyu with a serious expression.

Obviously, only something that Li Tingyu and others could not handle would disturb his practice.

“It’s the messenger sent by the Storm Kingdom.” Li Tingyu said softly, “The leader is a level 17.”

“Level 17?” Shen Fei’s pupils shrank slightly.

“Although the aura is very unstable, it should have just broken through not long ago, but it is definitely level 17.” Li Tingyu said, “And, according to the other party, the messenger they sent not only found us, but also contacted the other six kingdoms and reached a basic agreement. We are the last one.”

It has been more than three years since the Lord Kingdom came to this world. In fact, up to now, just from the ranking of the Lord Kingdom, we can see the basic situation.

Because starting from the eighth place, the total score of the kingdom has a huge gap.

The gap between the ninth and the eighth is really too large.

This shows that the situation of the ninth kingdom is already precarious. Even if the score is still increasing, the growth rate is very slow. It is either restricted in development or reduced to a subsidiary kingdom of other kingdoms.

In short, if nothing unexpected happens, the final winner should only be selected from the top eight.

At present, the messenger sent by the Storm Kingdom said that they have contacted the other six kingdoms, and even established contact and reached an agreement.

What is this?

This is the trend that has come to us.

“It seems that the pressure on the Storm Kingdom is not as bad as we thought.” Shen Fei narrowed his eyes, “Under the premise of the conflict with the Haoluo Dynasty, there is still enough energy to send out the 17th-level combat force? Is it another kingdom similar to Violet?”

Violet’s situation is indeed rare, and the strength potential and the score ranking are seriously inconsistent.

But if the Storm Kingdom is really in this situation, then it is not unimaginable to gain strong strength in a very short time, because that is not development in a strict sense, but recovery.

“The specific situation was not leaked by the visitor.” Li Tingyu shook her head gently, “But looking at the calmness of this hero, it is obvious that they are also confident in themselves, and our rapidly growing total score has not brought them too much pressure.”

Normally, the Dark Night Kingdom, which has soared from more than 50 to the second place in just three years, is enough to form a “trend”, at least a trend that makes the first place tremble.

Because according to this trend, it won’t take long to surpass the first place.

But if Li Tingyu’s observation is correct, then things are interesting.

“Either this ‘envoy’ has superb acting skills, or they really have full confidence.” Shen Fei said, thinking for a moment, and suddenly said, “The person who came is asking to see me.”

“Yes.” Li Tingyu nodded, “Many questions are not answered, just say that they want to see the master.”

“They are trying to lure me with their own intelligence.” Shen Fei laughed, then stood up, “Tell them that I am at a critical moment of cultivation and have no time to deal with these trivial matters. All the authority will be handed over to you.”

“My Lord?” Li Tingyu was stunned, as if she was a little surprised by Shen Fei’s reaction.

“It is true that we are weaker at the moment, and since they are here, some superficial intelligence can be easily investigated. In this case, why should we leak deeper intelligence?” Shen Fei said slowly, “There is no need to contact the other six kingdoms. The number of source crystals we need is temporarily sufficient. Moreover, given the current situation where they are far apart, whether they form an alliance, trade, or reach any other agreement, it actually has no great impact.”

“But won’t it make us look unsociable?” Li Tingyu seemed a little hesitant, and her beautiful eyebrows were also slightly frowned at this time, “If the seven kingdoms really get closer and closer, it will bring us a lot of trouble.”

It is obviously a subtle statement to say “a lot of trouble”.

The current strength of the Dark Night Kingdom is much weaker than that of the Storm Kingdom. If the other kingdoms really unite, even if it is just a superficial union, it will be enough to bring a heavy blow to the Dark Night Kingdom.

However, Shen Fei just shook his head and asked, “How many years do you think it will take for us to have a direct conflict with other lord kingdoms?”

“At the earliest, it will be three years later.” Li Tingyu quickly gave the answer.

Three years may seem long, but for the current lord kingdom, it is actually very short.

At least this time is difficult for the Dark Night Kingdom to give birth to a level 17 individual.

This is why Li Tingyu feels uneasy.

“If three years is not enough, then find a way to extend this time.” Shen Fei said, “Mystery is our current biggest weapon and a sharp knife for us to stabilize the “people’s hearts”. A second place with a trump card exposed is more likely to become a target. As long as we keep it mysterious and avoid direct combat, we will not become a target for other kingdoms to unite against.”

“. Your will.” Li Tingyu seemed to understand and nodded slightly.

Shen Fei seemed a little helpless, but did not say anything more.

As the kingdom has developed to this point, he and Li Tingyu sometimes have conflicts of opinion, and they are often in the aspect of “risk or not”.

Li Tingyu obviously prefers to seek a more stable approach.

This choice is based on her status and her identity.

No matter how much power she has, the kingdom does not belong to her. In this case, she naturally cannot make risky choices on behalf of Shen Fei.

In other words, only when faced with this choice can we really see who is the master of the kingdom.

Therefore, even if Li Tingyu still disagrees with this method, she still obeys Shen Fei’s will, and even if Shen Fei sees that Li Tingyu disagrees, he still insists on his decision.

This has nothing to do with right or wrong, it is just because Shen Fei can bear the cost of failure and is unwilling to compromise when the winning rate is “not low”.

However, this kind of consideration belongs to the top leaders of the kingdom, and other lords are naturally unaware of it.

They could only see that their own king ruthlessly refused to meet the envoy of the Storm Kingdom, which was temporarily ranked first, and used a panacea-like reason. Even when the envoy “clamored” that he had contacted the other six kingdoms, the result was the same.

Arrogant, domineering, and ruthless.

If this attitude was done by an opponent, it would naturally be very irritating, but if it was done by their own king, it must be said that there was an indescribable domineering.

In particular, most of the lords of the entire Dark Night Kingdom have been “Dihua”. Without knowing Shen Fei’s true background, they can only become brainless Shen Chui.

At this time, the lord channel was even more joyful.

“It’s so funny. The messenger from the Storm Kingdom thought our king would meet him.”

“I really want to see his confused look.”

“Is it so great that he contacted the other six kingdoms? I don’t know what he is so proud of.”

“If we send messengers over, we can also contact them easily. It’s not like we have to make all the six kingdoms our vassal kingdoms. What’s so difficult about that?”

“Your Majesty is right! We will be enemies sooner or later. There’s no need to be polite.”

“That’s right. We will have to fight sooner or later. If you ask me, just drive the messenger out of the world. He has been investigating all kinds of things since he came.”

“.”

Obviously, because of Shen Fei’s unexpected behavior, not many lords care about the fact that the Storm Kingdom actually sent a level 17 messenger, which should have been a shocking thing. Instead, they think that their own king is as domineering as ever, and he is not at all inferior no matter what situation he faces.

This is in line with their perception of Shen Fei.

After all, this is a man who is like a cheat. No matter what kind of strength he shows, it will not make people feel strange.

This atmosphere was quickly conveyed to the envoys from the Storm Kingdom.

Even if they didn’t know what happened in the Lord Channel, they could always feel the gazes from all directions and hear some words with sneers or indifference when they were in other people’s territory.

“The Dark Night Kingdom is really not simple.” The hero who was the messenger was named Seven Emotions Demon.

Yes, this was his real name.

As a high-quality mythical hero with seven emotions and six desires as the foundation of his power, he was a perfect actor. No matter how sharp a person was or how powerful his magical powers were, they could not see his true thoughts from him.

Therefore, he has always been a perfect messenger. Since he was recruited, he has been responsible for the kingdom’s mission.

This time is the same.

On the surface, it seems that they don’t care much about the Dark Night Kingdom, but in fact, the Storm Kingdom has long been highly alert to the threat brought by the Dark Night Kingdom.

Even their king said in person, “The only enemy in this journey of the heavens is the Dark Night.”

As for the other six kingdoms?

Unless there are major problems in the Storm Kingdom and the Dark Night Kingdom, otherwise, these six kingdoms have no chance of winning at all.

Strength, potential, and foundation can already be seen.

“My lord, what should we do now?” A subordinate of the Seven Emotions Demon came up, and his expression and appearance also showed no real emotions.

As the master of emotions, the Seven Emotions Demon can not only control his own emotions, but also control others’ emotions. Therefore, although he brought a whole delegation, he seemed to be a whole, and he could not always convey wrong information to others unconsciously.

And it was difficult to detect.

But this almost invincible force is obviously going to fail this time.

“What else can we do?” The Seven Emotions Demon also sighed, “I thought that Li Xiang could do something. I didn’t expect that a mortal who had just entered the extraordinary and became a lord for only a few years could get rid of his subconscious dependence on heroes so quickly. This king is indeed not simple.”

That’s right, the Seven Emotions Demon had already influenced Li Tingyu’s judgment unconsciously.

Not to mention Li Tingyu herself, even Shen Fei was unaware of this.

Because this was not eroded by extraordinary power, or in other words, he just saw Li Tingyu’s identity as a think tank who mainly cultivated spiritual consciousness, so he let Li Tingyu see the emotions he wanted to show her, and then used this common way of thinking of “smart people” to give a little hint.

In other words, the situation of “smartness backfired” was artificially created.

I thought that the legendary king of the Dark Night Kingdom should also be highly dependent on heroes, especially the wisdom of wise heroes, like all other lords, but I didn’t expect that there would be a problem in the first step.

Without meeting, how can we see the king’s true emotions, or even give hints in the same way?

Let alone the heroic king, in this situation, they have to consider whether the other party really has such confidence, or is he also giving them the hint of “confidence” with such an attitude?

Does this king really have enough trump cards to make him so confident, even so arrogant?
