Alien world

Chapter 845 76. Apology
"Okay, don't let down the good intentions of the Tatoon Empire."

Duke Kingsley was trying to persuade Paige on the surface, but he was actually talking to Annan.

At this time, Annan had already thought of the conditions.

"Then my condition is...an apology."

"Apologise?" Paige was slightly stunned. It wasn't that it was too difficult to say, but it was too simple: "Just like that?"

"But not with me, but with Broken Tooth."

Paige's relaxation gradually faded away, replaced by a suppressed ferocity: "Want me to apologize to a mouse?"

He is one of the youngest earls in the Orr Empire, and will definitely sit in one of the Houses of Representatives of the Imperial Capital in the future. Being deprived of the frontline commander will only make the enemies in the empire laugh at him, but bowing to the ratmen... will become his destiny in this life. The stain will be used for criticism.

"Don't even think about it!"

Annan looked at him indifferently: "I don't think you are that ignorant. You let the Thirteen Supreme Kings take the blame for you and let the McKenen Rat Man see the joke...right?"

Duke Kingsley tapped the armrest with his thick knuckles: "The problem has been solved. Let your soldiers withdraw from Hell Mountain, and we will take over there."

"The little lord of Bogdan Maple Kingdom said that he does not blame the commander and hopes that we will no longer be responsible for him."

knock --

Peg showed his struggle. He could reject Annan's words, but he could not refuse the Duke... He raised his head and stared at Annan, as if he wanted to remember today's shame in his heart: "I, Count Paige Soma, apologize to the soldier who I misunderstood. !”

Annan ignored him, but deliberately looked out the window, staring in the direction of the cemetery: "Did you hear that, Broken Tooth? No one can erase your status as a hero."

His eyes returned to the livid face of Paige: "This is not shameful, is it? Maybe the soldiers of the Orr Empire will still think that you love soldiers like a son."

Duke Kingsley was clearly sneering, but there was a hint of appreciation deep in his eyes. He tilted his head: "Peg, I made an appointment with the emperor to go to the Imperial Library. Your matter will be resolved as soon as possible."

"Tsk..."

Annan suddenly noticed that Olmedo was hesitant to speak: "What's wrong?"

"No need." Annan rejected him, "We will stick to it until August 12th as agreed, but not for you, but for the sake of Middle-earth."

Even Annan's dull political sense could tell that Duke Kingsley wanted to pick the peaches from Hell Mountain and restore the image this incident had left on the empire.

Although it was still a great shame and humiliation for him.

"Releasing the news that Paige has apologized, and then telling the boy's family the results... that's all we can do for the time being."

"Ha ha……"

"Whatever you want." Duke Kingsley waved his hand, signaling the mage to cancel the spell.

"Asking the nobles of the Orr Empire to apologize to a ratman? You are very brave." Duke Kingsley said coldly.

After regaining some of his mood, Annan got up and took the magic stone to Olmedo and Itilia to tell them the details of the negotiation.

Staring at the mirror, Annan slumped in his seat in frustration.

Annan originally wanted to ask Paige to go to Liberty City to apologize, but was forced to change it to a "frivolous" apology.

"Duke Kingsley, you made a mistake." Annan looked at the "mountain" on the sofa and said elegantly, "This is not an apology from the nobles of the Orr Empire to the rat people, but a wrong decision." The commander apologized to the soldiers who had been wronged'."

It would be a lie to say there was no pressure...that Duke of Kingsley was just sitting there, but it was really like a mountain of pressure.

Annan is not worth it for breaking his teeth, although this result is reasonable.

The little lord had no reason to offend the earl of the Orr Empire for a rat man. Maybe he was still complaining - complaining about why Annan wanted to make the matter clear.

After all, weakness is the original sin.

If Free City were one of the Thirteen High Kings, would this still be the case?
Annan looked at the two of them firmly: "I want to be the Thirteenth Supreme King!" Olmedo tilted his head slightly: "What king?"

"Thirteen Kings!"

"The Twelve Kings of the North?"

"The Thirteen Supreme Kings!"

Olmedo deliberately asked Itilia: "Are there any women among the Thirteenth Supreme Kings?"

"The King of Crystal and the King of Black Gold are both queens. One of them is in Middle-earth, and the other is in the South."

Olmedo and Itilia sang in harmony, making fun of Annan.

Annan was not as knowledgeable as them and ran out of the city lord's mansion with a blushing face.

He didn't know why he ran out, but when he stood outside the city lord's palace, surrounded by a field of sunflowers as tall as himself, with the gentle breeze and warm sunset shining on the still bustling streets, Annan felt sentimental in his heart.

I wonder how many soldiers will never come back after the war ends, and how many residents will lose their families?

In the evening, Annan opened the portal and sent another 500 foreign aids.

This can be regarded as the last gift that Broken Tooth left for Liberty City... Middle-earth people once again enthusiastically signed up.

The Hellfire camp is still holding on, like a rock in the waves... Fermi said that the main force of the rat men never appeared. After the first bell rang yesterday, the rat tide around Hell Mountain turned into a mixed rat tide again.

News of Paige's public apology also spread as Liberty City took the initiative to spread the word. But Annan didn't focus on it.

In the morning, Annan attended the funerals of Broken Tooth and Li Te.

Annan lost confidence in the lord who had never cared about his child, so he simply buried the boy in a cemetery outside Free City, and placed the stuffed bear Cathy gave him in front of the tomb where even the tombstone was smaller than the surrounding ones.

"This is just the beginning..." Annan said softly.

Has Annan forgiven them? No.

Someone has to pay the price for this blood feud. A dismissal and an apology are obviously not enough.

But when Annan wanted to hibernate and develop, crises always happened unexpectedly:

At twelve o'clock in the night, Annan was shocked to realize that he could not open the portal to Hell Mountain.

This usually means one of two things: the heavy Wanma acting as the anchor is dead and no bones remain—or it's magically sealed off.

"Or Empire!"

Annan instantly pointed the finger at the Orr Empire, which had just had a conflict.

Olmedo felt that the empire could not be so arrogant and sent people to inquire about the situation in the north, but it was too slow.

It was Dean Blehim who contacted his old friend and confirmed that the loss of contact in Hell Mountain had nothing to do with the Orr Empire. It was the Skaven who used evil energy to control the entire Gray Mountains.

Except for the two northern Great Walls, all coalition forces have lost contact.

"What's the reaction of the Tatooine Empire and the Orr Empire?"

"They said that the main force of the Skaven appeared on the Great Wall in the North and they had no time to lend a helping hand."

Apart from waiting impatiently, Annan seemed to have no other option.

The problems in the past two days all point to one problem: Liberty City is still too weak.

If Liberty City is strong, Annan does not need to worry about the war in the north.
