A strange world

Chapter 1224 Chapter 146. Human, you don’t want others to know about colluding with the rat people, right?

Liberty City's intelligence machine was fully activated - the specific method was that Annan spread his charm and inquired about information from the Tatooine Empire, the Stun Ratmen, the Rekaner Kingdom, the Dimon Kingdom and other forces.

There is also a collection of responses from all the forces in China and the Middle East, especially the empire.

After all, the western part of Middle-earth is the territory of the empire. No matter how gentle the country is, it can't stand the yearly invasion of rat people and demons, and it is still known as the empire of barbarians.

The Tatooine Empire has been able to endure until now, and Annan wonders if they have some ulterior motives with the Skaven.

In addition, the principality's borders must be inspected more intensively, and the city walls must be built as high as possible before the rat men arrive.

After all, in addition to the impact of refugees, after the principality collapsed, Liberty City would have to help.

The top time depends on when the Empire comes to the rescue.

As for the empire not coming to the rescue? The answer is yes, Annan is unswerving: the Principality of Montaburlok is a vassal of the empire. If the empire refuses to save it, its hegemony in Middle-earth will be shaken.

To put it bluntly, if the empire sits back and watches the Ratmen advance south, threatening itself and its vassals without taking action... then it will be in big trouble.

By then, even Liberty City will be able to tear off a corner of the empire and embark on a path to rise.

But Annan hopes that day will never happen - wouldn't it be nice for everyone to live together, make money and develop magic? Why fight and kill?

Annan first found Gale and asked the Stuen clan to provide some information. It would be best to find out who is responsible for the rat nest in the north - rat people are like humans, and they are also divided into various factions.

Annan was wondering if he could be like the Rat King of Thrane Clan whom the royal court met by chance, and get in touch with the McKeon Rat Nest in the north?

The empire was much easier to deal with. Annan had acquaintances in the Montreal Golden Family. When a portal opened, Olin said that he would help Annan keep an eye on it.

The Dimon Kingdom's reply was that it would take time - because the news Annan received was sent directly from the front line, and the capital did not know anything more than Annan.

While Annan was inquiring about the last kingdom of Ruikaner, he also sent back the students who had been studying in Liberty City for half a year.

"You didn't ask me for help. It seems that the kingdom's harvest is good this year?"

Before Vitalig arrived, Annan chatted with the palace guards who received him.

"Uh...sir, I don't know."

"Don't be so nervous. I also worked in the City Guards."

"Stop teasing him, not everyone can chat with everyone like you." Vitalig came over holding a scepter and wearing a floor-length cloak.

We haven't seen each other for only half a year, but this resurrected undead monarch seems to have a childish but real majesty.

"Your Majesty..." The relieved palace guard retreated.

They are all our own people. Annan got straight to the point and said, "Two things, your students are learning very well in Liberty City, and the current situation of the Skavenmen of McKeon."

Vitalig glanced at the young people next to Annan, nodded to them first, and then said to Annan: "The McKeon rats have been moving frequently recently, but they are not towards us."

"The border soldiers captured the ratmen captives and said that they were attacking the 'Warm Land' under the orders of the high priest."

"A warm place?"

"What we caught on the front line was just a Forward Captain. I guess it means Middle-earth."

"I understand. Is there any pressure on you?"

"There are some, but the main force of the rat people is not on my side."

Although the Kingdom of Ruikan'er suffered from war and its top combat forces were severely damaged and disabled, there were also advantages to being down and out - the ratmen couldn't pay attention to them.

After all, the Ratmen are not stupid. What's the use of seizing another piece of northern territory? Why don't we still have to eat ice in the ice and snow? But as long as they tear off a piece of the fertile soil of Middle-earth, they will become the great heroes of the saints.

Judging from this, the Kingdom of Dimon may not be the real target of the rat people.

Where is that?

The Violet Kingdom in the far west of Middle-earth has become history, the empire is in the far east, and in the middle is myself and a bunch of soft persimmons...

Damn it, it’s not coming for you, right? ?

Having said that, even if the kingdom is not facing the main force of the rat people, but at most a bunch of rats who want to fight against the autumn wind and run around, there is still a danger of being breached.

Vitalig looked at the students again: "The kingdom is not peaceful now. I allow you to stay in Liberty City for a while longer."

Students, you look at me, I look at you, one of them stood up and said: "Your Majesty, we cannot sit back and watch the kingdom be in danger."

"You know, your fate when you come back is probably...death."

Sigma took a step forward: "That is exactly the meaning of our study. Your Majesty, please allow us to die!"

The students said in unison: "Please allow us to die!"

Vitalig opened his mouth slightly in surprise, then turned into relief.

"Annan, thank you."

Annan came back to his senses, waved his hand and said, "It's too outrageous to say this."

Annan envied the kingdom for having a group of young people loyal to it at this time, but then he thought about it, there were more Free City, so there was nothing to envy.

The portal began to become unstable, Annan said: "Remember to seize the time to send the second batch of students."

"I will."

Annan and Vitalig looked at each other and smiled, which was a tacit understanding between the two.

All three directions need time to wait for news, and Annan hopes that Gale can come up with information.

Stuenrat did know all the actions of McKennarat. Faced with Annan's request, the ratman elder behind Gale took the initiative to propose a meeting.

"Okay, when and where?"

"The elder said... just use the portal you are best at."

Annan's eyes narrowed slightly and returned to his usual laziness. It's no surprise that the Skaven knew what they were capable of.

Just in case, Annan came to the Mage Tower the next day and opened the portal under the protection of Ajia.

The Sturn ratman kept one hand and wore a cloak, but did not show his true face to Annan.

Annan didn't mind and took the initiative to express his kindness to the mysterious rat man elder.

The elder of the rat man, whose background is in the dark area, talked about their previous cooperation... It seemed that they were deepening their relationship, but all the rat man's gifts had already been marked with a price in secret.

"Human, you don't want others to know about colluding with the rat people..."

The Rat Man actually used Annan's words to deal with him!

Annan was not to be outdone and said: "Ratman, you don't want other clans to know about your collusion with humans..."

The rat man elder seemed to have no idea that there was such a shameless human being, and that there was nothing he could do against him in a short time.

It only means that in order to continue cooperation, Liberty City needs to show real sincerity - the sweet cheese that Stun the Skaven threw to Annan finally revealed the poison inside.

The first meeting between Annan and the rat elders cannot be said to have ended on bad terms, but if Annan did not come up with an interest that could impress Stuenrat, their cooperation would indeed fall apart.

What can Liberty City give?
