"Has the government made any new moves recently?"
Qian Er looked at the butler. This oppressive atmosphere that had enveloped the entire world had dissipated quite a bit, but surprisingly, there was still no news.
The Victorious Race Alliance, which he originally thought would quickly lose its patience, hadn't made a move even until today. And the Human Race also had no news. The weaker races were even less worth mentioning.
But the air was still thick with a hidden murderous intent, and Qian Er knew that this confrontation wasn't over yet. A small matter could easily lead to irreversible consequences.
The atmosphere was already quite tense.
"The government has been carrying out vigorous appeasement measures for the people. The large-scale migration of people into Stele City has had a considerable impact on society."
"Now, very few people are moving into Stele City. On the one hand, it's because the Great King has changed the laws and raised the threshold for entering Stele City. On the other hand, it's because the government has stepped up its efforts."
"I know that. The government would definitely do that," Qian Er said expressionlessly.
"Now, the Human Race faintly has the air of being the number one among all races, but the alliance of the eight Victorious Races is clearly far stronger than the Human Race. It's actually a bit like shooting themselves in the foot. The previous powerful race alliance could also swallow the Human Race."
Qian Er shook his head: "It's just that if they did that, they would pay a somewhat heavy price, so heavy that after they swallowed the Human Race, they wouldn't have time to digest it, and they might be ambushed by a weaker Victorious Race."
"These bastards want to swallow the Human Race and also want to avoid significant losses. They want all the good things in the world to be theirs."
The butler sighed: "But looking at the current situation, if the eight Victorious Races really join forces, they can indeed swallow the Human Race without losing too much of their own strength."
"At the very least, after swallowing the Human Race, they would still be more than capable of suppressing the unruly elements among the myriad races."
"Great King."
A knock on the door sounded, and Ao Tianshun's voice came in.
"Come in."
Ao Tianshun walked in with a file bag and sat across from Qian Er, placing the file bag on the table: "I've found out. The government hasn't been idle recently."
"You can even find out about this kind of thing? Is it reliable?" The butler looked at Ao Tianshun in surprise. He knew that these top-level decisions were highly confidential, concerning the success or failure, even the rise or fall, of a nation.
"Yes, it's from my teacher, one of the country's leading politicians, and also the leader of one of the largest factions."
Ao Tianshun opened the file bag: "Inside is a rough record of the recent meetings."
Qian Er picked up a piece of paper and began to read.
… …
"Zhou Nong, you are my most prized student. This time, it may be the most dangerous lobbying you'll ever undertake in your life."
The old man skillfully straightened Zhou Nong's collar and gently bumped his fist against his chest.
"The situation now is different from before. They are determined to confront the Human Race, and many things about the Human Race can no longer be concealed. This is all the result of planting the seeds yourself."
Zhou Nong looked at the old man with a smile on his face.
"The government rejected my application because you will be facing the leaders of the eight Victorious Races. In front of them, no bodyguard is of any use."
"Why not let me go find the Town Suppressing King?"
Zhou Nong smiled: "Old teacher, you're confused. What they want most now is to kill the Town Suppressing King. It doesn't matter if I, Zhou Nong, die. The Human Race will just lose one persuader."
"Even if there is no Zhou Nong, our country still has many Zhou Nongs, but the Town Suppressing King cannot die. He is the hope of the Human Race."
The old man was silent for a while. How could he not know the reasoning Zhou Nong was talking about?
Finally, he patted Zhou Nong's shoulder helplessly: "Take care, child. You are my pride."
"Zhou Nong, will guarantee to complete the mission!"
Zhou Nong nodded and gave the old man a standard military salute, turning and leaving smartly.
Along the way, whether they were political enemies or colleagues, they all stopped what they were doing and paid Zhou Nong their respects!
Zhou Nong held his head high and puffed out his chest. He knew that if this matter succeeded, not only would he, Zhou Nong, be remembered forever in history, but his faction would also leave a strong mark in the records of the historians!
If he failed, it would just be death!
Soon, Zhou Nong arrived at the territory of the Nine-Headed Corpse Rats. From a distance, it just looked like an ordinary woodland, but upon closer inspection, one would find large, pitted and uneven burrows.
"Human Race Envoy, Zhou Nong requests an audience!"
He shouted loudly.
Soon, the leader of the Nine-Headed Corpse Rat race came out. This time, the Corpse Rat elders were not behind him.
"Zhou Nong? It's you again. What do you want?"
The Corpse Rat leader frowned, all nine heads looking at Zhou Nong with ill intent.
"Great King, why did you betray our two races' alliance and instead re-ally with other Victorious Races?"
Zhou Nong looked at the Nine-Headed Corpse Rat without fear.
"We are a race forced into the cracks by you. Isn't it interesting to not confront them, but to coerce us?"
The Corpse Rat leader was somewhat helpless.
"You wanted to come, we had no choice but to agree. The Frostfang Dragon race wanted to come, we also had no choice but to agree. The situation is just like this, and we will no longer ally with the Human Race."
"Why? Is the Great King not afraid that they will swallow you up?"
Zhou Nong looked at the Corpse Rat leader with a smile that was not a smile.
"Does that have anything to do with you? Our race can't afford to offend the Human Race, nor can we afford to offend them, but we are now allies. I advise you, please go back!"
The Corpse Rat leader became somewhat impatient.
"Allies? Do you think your alliance is reliable now? It seems that the Great King doesn't know about certain things that have happened recently…"
"Why don't you speak plainly? Do you think a race like the Void Sky Cranes is the only one? Do you really think our Human Race has no other trump cards? Do you believe that yourselves?"
Zhou Nong looked at the Corpse Rat leader meaningfully.
The Corpse Rat leader suddenly turned his head, staring intently at Zhou Nong!
"You mean…"
"Some things are not what they seem to be. Think carefully, doesn't your eight-race alliance have some strange things about it?"
Zhou Nong smiled slightly.
At this moment, a storm had already been stirred up in the Corpse Rat leader's heart. Although his expression was still as usual, his slightly trembling claws had already betrayed him!
Zhou Nong was right. The Human Race was so cunning, how could they not have any backup plans?
There must still be a huge conspiracy within this!
Zhou Nong quickly glanced at the Corpse Rat leader's claws, his gaze quickly returning to his eyes, looking at the Corpse Rat leader with a full smile.
"Great King, I think now, we can talk."
"Oh right, also, it's best to withdraw those hidden soldiers in the cave. I am a relatively timid person, but I have a friend who is very brave."
"You should still remember that I helped him out of a predicament in Stele City. He has a pretty good relationship with me."
