Chapter 1,104 Looks like we’re in trouble
"Okay, everyone knows everything, so it's time to invite our allies back. We have paid such a high price, and there must be some reward. Let's get what we want as soon as possible, and then leave this damn place. , is our wisest choice.”
"This place is not something we or the Republic are qualified to touch."
"The bloody fields and meat grinders of hundreds of millions of years should be left to those truly terrifying beings."
At this time, Marylandu seemed to have returned to his previous state, showing a bright smile and saying this.
A few minutes later, Upson was brought back again, looking at the twelve most important allies of the Lighthouse Nation in front of him with an anxious mood.
He also understands the situation of his allies. Although they are extremely powerful, he still maintains a considerable degree of awe for the Holy See and the Dark Parliament for some reason. He even maintains extreme awe when he comes to the East.
Otherwise, with their abilities, they would not allow the other party to develop their own power wantonly in this land.
This matter seemed to be a small matter, but it was very involved, and even involved two major camps. He was really afraid that if these people were unwilling to help, there would be no hope for the Lighthouse Country.
"Our allies, after our deliberations, we decided to fulfill our ancient covenant and help you drive away threats from the outside."
Maryland Du used the word "driving away" rather than "eliminating". Although it was just two words inserted directly, the meaning could not have been more obvious. It was a pity that the excited Apson did not understand the meaning.
He smiled excitedly and said quickly: "Thank you. Thank you for your willingness to help us. The Lighthouse Country will never forget your friendship."
"But..." It's just that what the other party wants is not friendship, but real benefits.
So here comes this sentence, which makes Apperson stunned.
"But what?" Upson's heart tightened and he asked unconsciously.
"However, we need to pay a heavy price this time. If we don't do it right, we will have to endure unimaginable pressure and may even be destroyed. Therefore, even though we are allies, I still have to put forward conditions."
Glancing at Apperson, Maryland Du said in a deep voice, as a leader and captain, he had to consider the only remaining members. When he came out with him, there were thousands of people. After the death, only the remaining members were left. The next eighteen most powerful.
Two hundred years passed, and there were only twelve left. The number was getting smaller and smaller, and he had to make considerations for them.
Since you have given something, you must get something in return.
"Please tell me." Upson's heart tightened, but he also knew that the other party had a covenant with this party, but if he wanted the other party to help, he had to pay something.
"We will triple the previous supply, and we will do this every year in the future. At a critical moment, we can no longer waste it aimlessly." Maryland Du put forward his own conditions.
This made Upson open his mouth, but he didn't dare to say anything for a long time. Upson didn't know what was supplied in the past, but as a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he knew that 15% of the annual military expenditure was He was sent here under a clever name.
For support, that is a terrifying number.
For this reason, the burden on the lighthouse country is extremely heavy, but now it has to be tripled? Will this be the case every year? Doesn’t that mean 45% of military expenditures have to be spent?
This number is simply unbearable.
"It's too much for us to bear."
"As little as three years, as long as five years, we will complete everything without your support. I know this is very difficult, but it is not unbearable." Maryland Du said in a deep voice.
"This... okay." Apperson had received special authorization before coming here, and now. . If it is a long-term supply, of course we cannot agree to it, but if it is a short-term supply of three to five years, it may not be unbearable.
money. . There are still many of them.
Of course, it would be a bit troublesome to exchange the money for the resources they need, but it is not impossible.
Compared to the corruption of the entire West Coast, it is simply much better.
Jiang Bai was completely ignorant of all this. At this moment, he was tapping Erlang's legs, drinking in a bar, and flirting with a blonde girl with a smile.
He knew that he would not be able to stay here for long. No matter how he answered Apperson, he would definitely not be able to stay in the Lighthouse Country any longer. There was no other reason. Since Apperson had found him so quickly and made such a big fuss movement.
With the abilities of the Holy See and the Dark Council, I believe that I will be able to get the news and find myself soon.
Maybe the troops have already set off now.
Thinking of this, Jiang Bai unconsciously smiled bitterly, feeling that even though the world was big, he mistakenly thought he was home.
However, he had no intention of running away in a hurry. As long as the Pope and the prince did not come, Jiang Bai was really not afraid when others came.
Those two are obviously beings who have transcended the Great Heavenly Realm. Like Xu Changsheng and Taishang Taoist, they are the first level figures.
It's a real masterpiece.
Jiang Bai should not be in a hurry to deal with them now.
But other people are not so scary. Even if they are at the top of the Great Heaven, Jiang Bai is not necessarily afraid, of course. . There is a premise that the other party is alone.
If the opponent has a large number of people, like Feng Feifei, who is a high-level master, or even a peak master, and brings a bunch of younger brothers with him, Jiang Bai will also run away.
Because it is extremely difficult to fight alone, let alone when others attack in groups.
But he is not worried about this. With enough prestige points, Jiang Bai can still teleport many times and cannot be defeated. . Can’t run yet? Jiang Bai is not worried about this at all now.
As long as his stored prestige points have not been exhausted, there is no need to be afraid.
Before that, he had more than two million prestige points and had used teleportation three times, spanning hundreds of thousands of kilometers, but he was still fully prepared and had nothing to fear.
After chatting with this blond beauty from Los Angeles for a while, the other party invited him to drink coffee at home. Jiang Bai thought about it and politely declined the matter because now was not the time.
The other party seemed quite displeased and turned around to leave. Jiang Bai chuckled lightly and walked out of the bar without saying a word. He happened to see a plane speeding past in the sky. He was stunned for a moment and narrowed his eyes.
At his level of cultivation, spiritual senses are extremely sharp, and nothing within a few kilometers can escape their eyes, including naturally the plane speeding past above his head.
"Ouch~~ It seems that I am in trouble... It seems that three people have come, and they are not weak..." Jiang Bai murmured noncommittally as he squinted his eyes.
