Chapter 1256: Weighing the two evils and fanning the flames!
Today's first update: Chapter 1256! 1/4!
...
The initiator of this post is someone Xu Kun knows.
It was the leader of the Battle Axe Beast Hunter Group, Velia, whom Xu Kun met outside Olympus City!
In the post, Velia and other leaders of the Olympus City Beast Hunter Group spoke out, representing the large and small forces originally stationed in Olympus City, demanding that the Titans return all the lands that had been occupied by the human race, including Olympus City!
In the previous war for resources launched by various tribes against the human race, the biggest loss on the human side was the fall of the two main cities. Among them, Olympus City was declared war by the Titans, and finally, under the order issued by Zeus, the king of the gods, they did not fire a single shot and gave up!
At that time, there was a fierce argument within the human race about this matter!
The group of people who unconditionally trust Zeus and worship him as a god believe that giving up Olympus City can minimize losses. This group of people is mainly composed of major families in the Aegean War Zone!
Without exception, in the eyes of these families, Zeus's status surpasses that of the Lords of the Past Eras. Even the oracle of the current human race's co-leader, the Sky Eye, is not as effective as Zeus's oracle!
If Zeus tells them to go east, they won't go west!
It is precisely because of the agreement of these families who hold the right to speak in a major war zone that the Titans can take down the second largest main city above the tenth floor of the human race without bloodshed!
As for the opposing faction, it is composed of those non-family forces, or in the words of China, it is composed of casual cultivators without official background!
It's not that the bones of casual cultivators are harder than those family forces, but these casual cultivators active above the tenth floor can be said to have invested their lives in Olympus City!
Giving up the main city is equivalent to asking for their lives!
It's no exaggeration to describe it as cutting flesh and selling blood!
Especially the major hunting groups suffered the most serious losses!
But the decisions of the top leaders often do not take into account the interests of the bottom. In the face of the real interests of the race, giving up the small for the big is the default rule of the game!
So even though the leaders of the hunting groups like Vilia were upset when the top leaders decided to give up Olympus City, they could only swallow the bitter fruit and accept the fact that the main city fell!
However, this time is different from that time!
Xu Kun led the team to counterattack the various tribes and built up momentum. He first defeated the wolf tribe and then negotiated with the nine-tailed fox tribe. Although the succubus was blocked outside the city in a disgusting way, this was not a problem of strength. Now he has also captured a silver chaos city and jointly issued a killing order that shocked all tribes with a saint tribe and two royal tribes!
With a huge momentum, Xu Kun also used his actual actions to tell the human race: the human race has Kun, and is not afraid of any difficulties!
After a short stop at the Succubus, Xu Kun used Yang Yao's hand to update the dynamics, and pointed the next spearhead at the Titans who occupied the most territory of the human main city!
You know, the Titans not only took a main city without bloodshed, but also occupied all the territories of the Free City except the main city area, and the part of the Harbor City that fell at this moment was also in the hands of the Titans!
Although Xu Kun fought against the Titans in the battle of the Eight-Tribe Coalition attacking the Yanhuang City, defeated the other party, and established a certain friendship, this kind of friendship cannot be eaten, and the real racial interests must be placed before this friendship!
And this time, Xu Kun's attitude was also slightly ambiguous. He did not announce that he would kill the Wolf Clan and the Succubus Clan like he did. Instead, he gave the Titans another quarter of an hour to think, and let the other party weigh the pros and cons!
The thousands of people inspired by Xu Kun naturally wanted to do their part!
Since you can't join the combat troops, you can always be a support force, right?
This is the idea of the leaders of various forces headed by Velia!
In their cognition, it is time to make a stand. The change in wind direction has made the peace-seeking faction stop, so now it is naturally the turn of the hawks to take over!
The core figure of the hawks is Xu Kun!
With Xu Kun as the sharp blade, we are the cheerleaders, Titans, you can do whatever you want!
This is the situation. To be honest, Xu Kun is still very satisfied when he sees that the human race is no longer afraid of the royal family. What he wants is this kind of confidence to challenge authority!
But it really involves some conflicts of interest, which those who are now inspired by him don’t know!
In their eyes, returning the main city is indisputable!
The territory of the human race must not be occupied by foreign races!
But is Olympus City really the territory of the human race?
To say that from the beginning, Xu Kun did not regard Olympus City as his own industry!
Because the owner of the controlling stake in Olympus City is the traitor in his eyes, Zeus!
Now, he has no good feelings towards the King of Gods, who is from the Titans but has usurped the throne of the human race!
Giving the Titans a quarter of an hour is not only to give Ares and Athena face, but also to give them time to think!
As for the city of Olympus...
He doesn't even want it if you give it to him!
Let's put it this way, now Xu Kun has absolute control over the main city, the second city of the wolf clan, the second city of the nine-tailed fox clan, and the second city of the succubus clan. It seems to be a racial industry, but it is actually Xu Kun's own industry!
But if he takes back the city of Olympus, can Xu Kun take it for himself?
This will involve a lot of quibbling again!
Simply put, you sent things to your own home by transferring them from your left hand to your right hand. Do you want me to be the bad guy now, take the main city back from you, and then hand it over to you?
You are not at a disadvantage in any relationship, I have worked so hard to serve you!
What do you want?
So, Velia and others have good intentions, but in the eyes of Xu Kun, Yang Yao and others who know the inside story, they are just doing good things with bad intentions!
But you can't dampen their enthusiasm because of this incident!
"Alas, it seems... this time we have to make a losing deal!" Xu Kun sighed.
Originally, the initiative was in their hands, and the attitude shown to the Titans was up to you!
If you don't want to fight, cut off your meat!
But now...
It's equivalent to someone expressing Xu Kun's position, and urgently needing to return the lost human territory. The Titans can use this as an excuse to show goodwill to the human race and appease the human race!
I have returned all the things I robbed from you, and I have given you enough face. If you are unreasonable again, we are not made of dough!
You can't offend a royal family to the end!
In short, if the Titans are smart, they can use the smallest cost to eliminate a possible war!
Yang Yao chuckled: "Brother Xiaokun, do you think that when the human race is angry, the Titans will bow their heads?"
Xu Kun raised his eyebrows: "What if not?"
Yang Yao shook his head: "I don't think so. Although the Titans can withdraw at the smallest cost if they are willing to fulfill the wishes of the people of the human race, the price they pay is the loss of face of a royal family!"
"As you said, Brother Xiaokun, the Titans are also in a dilemma now. Do they want practical benefits or face!"
Xu Kun seemed to understand something after hearing what Yang Yao said!
Yang Yao spread his hands to the confused crowd and used them as a scale to say: "This is the actual benefit, this is the face of the royal family, which is more important depends on people's hearts and the price paid!"
"To pursue actual benefits, you must lose some face. In this regard, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan is the smartest!"
Daji took the initiative to show goodwill, so that the Nine-tailed Fox Clan did not suffer any public opinion storms during Xu Kun's counterattack, and achieved the best outcome!
"Weighing the lesser of two evils, the Titan Clan is smarter now, that is, using the excuse of appeasing the human race and returning the main city, bowing slightly and eliminating the disaster!"
Doing this is a situation that is good for you, me and everyone!
"But what if we increase the weight of the face project and make the Titan Clan lose face?"
Xu Kun suddenly realized and hugged Yang Yao and kissed her in public.
"You are worthy of being my good wife. Why didn't I think of it?"
"Haha, whether to sacrifice flesh or lose face, let's see what the Titans will choose!"
Everyone was still confused.
"So what should we do now?"
Xu Kun and Yang Yao smiled at each other and said in unison: "Add fuel to the fire!"
