#359 - Section 359

Garrosh and Rexxar each established their own territories on this land, and they officially became dukes of the Allen Kingdom.

The size of the Roman Empire was actually not much different from that of the Allen Kingdom, so the territory occupied by Rexxar and Garrosh could be considered the most extensive.

However, everyone else knew that this Origin World was extremely poor, far inferior to the continent, and magical items were almost nonexistent.

Everything needed to be transported from the outside, and those they ruled were all humanoid races. They did not envy Rexxar and Garrosh at all, but rather sympathized with them.

However, Rexxar and Garrosh didn't particularly care. After all, becoming a duke now was already very satisfying for them, and with such a large territory, they were definitely doing very well.

Moreover, for some reason, they actually discovered twenty large magic stone mines in the Origin World.

This drove them into a frenzy. For a duchy, this was an insane treasure.

Those humanoid races were somewhat restless after seeing the Dragon Knights and so many troops withdraw, but Allen didn't expect that it would be Harry, Rhine, and Otto who personally led the team to annihilate them.

It seemed they also knew there was no turning back now and could only cling tightly to the Allen Kingdom.

Everything was over, and Allen also took a good rest.

This day, he was in the garden, leisurely resting in a chair.

At this moment, Rogner, the owner of the Sapphire Merchant Guild, rushed over anxiously, looking at Allen.

"Your Majesty, I have important matters to report."

"Oh? What is it?"

Although he saw Rogner like this, Allen still didn't care much.

"Your Majesty," Rogner carefully looked around, and whispered like a thief, "Envoys from the Nork Empire have arrived and want to meet with the Grand Duke."

"What!"

Hearing Rogner's words, Allen suddenly stood up, looking incredulous.

"What did you say?"

"Your Majesty, it's true."

Rogner had a tearful expression, "Previously, I sent a trade caravan to the Nork Empire to open up trade routes. As a result, when they came back to replenish goods, the envoys from the Nork Empire secretly followed us back."

"They had been constantly trying to send envoys over before, but I listened to Your Majesty's words and did not agree. But I really didn't expect that an empire would actually do this."

Rogner looked very innocent. When he first received this news, he almost fainted.

He now looked nervously at Allen, fearing Allen's punishment, after all, this was definitely a major event.

Allen was indeed very unhappy, but seeing Rogner's frightened appearance, he no longer had the idea of blaming him.

After all, the Nork Empire was an empire after all, and Rogner couldn't have possibly guarded against it.

"… How many people know about this?"

Allen looked at Rogner, very seriously.

Rogner quickly said, "Not many people. That merchant guild returned to the capital, and the envoy came to me as soon as they arrived, explained their intentions to me, and I came over without delay."

"I issued a gag order to them, asking them to stay together before I came."

"Well, you did well."

Allen's expression improved a lot.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now? I have arranged for the envoy to stay in the house, but we must also come up with a solution."

"Don't worry," Allen comforted Rogner, and quickly thought of countermeasures himself.

In fact, if it were envoys from other empires, there would be no need to worry so much.

Although Allen, as a kingdom under the Radiant Empire, should not have too much contact with envoys from other empires.

But after all, there were no explicit regulations, and occasional contact wouldn't be considered anything.

After all, the four empires on the continent had not broken out into major wars, and had all turned their attention to other worlds.

Moreover, the Sapphire Merchant Guild of the Allen Kingdom had even done business in other empires, which was nothing.

But the Nork Empire was different. The Nork Empire was built on conquest from the beginning, and had almost become the most powerful country.

However, later, due to the invasion of other worlds, the empires on the continent all turned their attention to other worlds.

The Nork Empire also contributed a lot, and its strength had declined a lot.

But the Nork Empire still did not have a good relationship with the other three empires, and the worst relationship was between the Radiant Empire and the Nork Empire.

It could be said that if it weren't for the reason of other worlds, which led to the entire continent falling into a delicate balance.

Perhaps the Radiant Empire and the Nork Empire would have already started a war.

Chapter 537 Establish an Empire?

So, under normal circumstances, there was very little communication between the Radiant Empire and the Nork Empire.

And the reason why the Radiant Empire didn't care about the Sapphire Merchant Guild going to the Nork Empire before.

That was because there were still many connections between the two empires, and one more merchant guild wouldn't make much of a difference.

Moreover, the Sapphire Merchant Guild was going to earn the Nork Empire's money, which could be considered a good thing for them.

But standing still was completely different. Now that the Nork Empire had sent envoys over, it was completely different.

That also meant that the Allen Kingdom had official contact with the Nork Empire, which was absolutely not good.

As far as Allen knew, none of the kingdoms under the Radiant Empire dared to do this.

Now, not to mention that the Nork Empire's envoys had come secretly, it was clear that it was not a good thing.

Moreover, the current Allen Kingdom was already being feared by the Radiant Empire because of its strength.

If the Radiant Empire knew about this now, it would definitely not be a good thing.

And now that the envoys had arrived in the capital, Allen had to meet him.

Otherwise, if he was dissatisfied with this matter and caused trouble in King 020's territory, it would be easy to splash some dirt on Allen.

Allen had no choice but to say to Rogner, "Bring the envoy over first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Hearing Allen's words, Rogner felt a lot more relaxed and quickly turned to leave.

"Wait."

Allen's words came from behind, and Rogner hurriedly turned around.

"Your Majesty, is there anything else?"

"Remember, don't let anyone else know about this."

Allen stared intently at Rogner.

Rogner nodded quickly, "Understood."

"Okay, go."

After Rogner left, Allen still stood there with a frown.

He didn't know what the Nork Empire was here for, was it because of those magic potion recipes?

Or did they value his potential and want to win him over?

Or…

After thinking about it, he still couldn't figure it out, so Allen simply stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, when the time came, he would just disagree with whatever they said.

After a while, Rogner cautiously brought a person forward.

It seemed that he was the envoy of the Nork Empire.

He looked to be only in his twenties (cfbi), but his real age was unknown.

Although he looked young, he had a composure that did not match his appearance.

"Duke Jueyuan of the Nork Empire greets King Allen."

What?

Even Rogner in front looked back, never expecting that the person who came this time was not an ordinary envoy, but a Duke.

"Rogner, you may leave first."

Allen instinctively felt that if a Duke could come in person, it was definitely not a trivial matter.

"It seems that Your Majesty is very careful.

Don't worry, we have no malicious intentions."

Duke Jueyuan looked at Allen and smiled softly.

Allen was not as relaxed as he was.

"What exactly are you here for?

If the Radiant Empire finds out, I'll be in big trouble."

Jueyuan didn't seem to care much, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I am very confident in my abilities."

"Moreover, once discovered, Your Majesty will only have trouble, but I may lose my life.

I wouldn't joke with my own life."

Hearing Jueyuan's words, Allen felt a lot more relieved.

What he said made sense.

After all, the Radiant Empire and the Nork Empire were mortal enemies.

If they knew that a Duke of the Nork Empire had arrived in the territory of the Radiant Empire, they would definitely not let him leave here alive.

"Then what exactly are you here for?"

Jueyuan looked at Allen and said jokingly, "Does Your Majesty want to defect to our Nork Empire?

You should know that the military strength of our Nork Empire is the best in the world.

We will directly confer Your Majesty as a Duke, and the territory will only be larger than it is now."

"What a joke."

Allen had no interest at all.

He would be crazy to agree to the conditions of the Nork Empire.

At most, the Nork Empire would give him the position of a Duke, and the strongest would only be the throne, but obviously they wouldn't agree.

And Allen is now the ruler of a country.

If he agreed to their words, there would be almost no benefits, but the disadvantages would be huge.

First of all, he would completely break with the Radiant Empire.

He didn't know if the Radiant Empire could swallow this insult.

Maybe they would send someone to hunt down Allen, but of course, Allen was not afraid of this.

Now he is a Legendary Three-Star, and he also has a divine artifact Trident, as well as an extra godhead.

His combat power is definitely among the top in the continent.

Moreover, he would have to abandon the Allen Kingdom that he had built up with a lot of time.

At that time, the Radiant Empire would probably not let Allen slowly take these things away.

Allen might only be able to take Marco and those dragon knights with him.

Allen was still confident that Marco and the others would follow him.

At that time, even if the Nork Empire gave him a territory, he would still suffer a big loss.

Moreover, who knows if the Nork Empire would abide by the rules.

"Absolutely impossible."

Allen directly rejected Duke Jueyuan's words without hesitation.

At the same time, Allen's eyes were a little unkind.

Duke Jueyuan's words were not only insulting their intelligence, but also insulting Allen's intelligence.

"If Duke Jueyuan came here to say this, then there is no need to continue talking."

Duke Jueyuan listened to Allen's answer without any disappointment, as if he had expected it.

"It seems that King Allen is not interested in the Duke of the Nork Empire, so is he interested in the position of Emperor?"

"You want to give me the position of Emperor?"

Allen looked at Duke Jueyuan with a complicated expression, unable to believe it.

Could it be that the people of the Nork Empire really only have muscles in their brains?

Duke Jueyuan's expression changed, "Of course not."

"King Allen, we can help you build an Empire!"

Build an Empire!

Allen couldn't help but show a shocked expression.

Duke Jueyuan was very satisfied with Allen's reaction.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Allen quickly reacted.

"Whether it's nonsense or not, Your Majesty will know after listening to me."

Duke Jueyuan was not in a hurry, "Our Majesty agrees to help King Allen build an Empire."

"King Allen's current territory is located in the heart of the Radiant Empire.

Between our Nork Empire and the Allen Kingdom, there are still two kingdoms of the Radiant Empire."

"We can help King Allen take down these two kingdoms, and we can also cede a kingdom to Allen, so that King Allen will have the foundation to build an Empire."

Duke Jueyuan talked eloquently.

It seemed that this idea was different from the previous joking idea.

They were really prepared.

And in that case, Allen would control four kingdoms.
