Chapter 589 Thunder and Silver Wheel (I)

"It's an honor, Lord Hunter." A young man bowed and saluted, then raised his head. He was wearing a black uniform with a white silk scarf on his collar, showing an elegant temperament.

"I also know about your request." Hunter walked a few steps, sat on the velvet chair beside him, stretched out his right hand, and asked the servant beside him to fill his wine glass.

"After we conquer Hopland, I will act as your surety, restore the glory of Tisiphone's family, and give you one-third of the wealth of the Carites and Helis families."

"Thank you, Lord Hunter. The Tisiphone family is willing to be your loyal followers." Abel expressed his gratitude again.

Although he knew in his heart that this gentleman might be writing a blank check, after Hopeland was conquered, he might not get a penny of the property of the Carites and Helis families.

But what does it matter? As long as they hold on to this military leader of the Frost Alliance, it is only a matter of time before the Tisiphone family rises again.

He was not like his two reckless brothers. As the last surviving direct descendant of the House of Tisiphone, Abel deeply understood the insignificance of personal strength and believed that using strategy and brains was far better than using brute force.

The failure of his two brothers was that they trusted advanced technology and extraordinary strength too much and gave up their original plan. After all, this world is dominated by people and relationships.

After the failure of the Hopeland Incident, he hid his tracks and lurked in the Southern Islands for several years. He finally grasped some of the weaknesses of the Divine Wing Bird. Now he has finally used this opportunity to connect with his old network and contact the bigwigs of the Frost Rose.

And as long as the Frost Alliance wins in the end, the Tisiphone family will surely be revived in their hands.

He believed so.

Outside the window of the airship, one divine-winged bird after another fell under various restrictions and attacks, and their feathers and flesh and blood fell to the sky in sorrow.

Three days later, at the Hinayue Parliament and the Cranberry United Kingdom Parliament.

The spacious hall was built on the hillside, with tall pillars standing around it, and some vines climbing up on them, with leaves of light green and dark green attached.

Outside the hall, on one side is a stone mountain with a flowing spring, and on the other side is an extremely open view, overlooking the prosperous island buildings below.

On the central wall of the Parliament Hall, there is a golden crescent moon drawing, with a few vines wrapped around the golden moon, and a few bright red berries dotted in the vines, symbolizing the United Kingdom.

There are many high-ranking figures of the kingdom sitting in the hall now. Half of them are wearing different wizard robes, and the other half are wearing gorgeous clothes made of gold thread and silk.

"I think that under the circumstances, we should accept the Frost Alliance's peace proposal." A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes stood up and spoke. He was a little fat and looked a little overweight.

After the recent destruction of the Divine Wing Bird forces, the Frost Alliance once again sent a peace proposal, hoping that the Youngberry Kingdom would withdraw from the war and remain neutral. The Frost Alliance also promised that if the Youngberry Kingdom agreed, it would end its blockade of its merchant ships and shipping routes and would no longer interfere with its trade.

As a result, many nobles in the kingdom were tempted. Most of their titles and power were inherited from the Redberry Duchy. Unlike the Young Moon Council that had migrated south, these nobles were unconcerned with the situation across the sea. They simply wanted to enjoy a stable and prosperous life, and as an important trade transit point, they were content to reap the benefits.

"This is not a good suggestion. The other party may be cheating." A mage representative on the podium shook his head. He had bright blue eyeshadow on his face and bird feathers in his hair.

"Cheat? How else can we cheat? Now we have even lost the Divine Winged Bird troops, and our naval force is even more unable to defeat the enemy." A noble representative spoke.

A few days ago, when the Divine Wing Bird troops were performing a support mission, they were ambushed by an airship fleet hidden in the clouds. The airships also released a special drug gas, causing a large number of Divine Wing Birds to lose control and go crazy. In the end, the entire unit died at sea, and only a few escaped.

But now the air support capability of the Hinamichi Kingdom has been greatly reduced, and it has gradually lost the ability to control the sea.

"We also have the Chimera Battle Group, of which we are so proud, and the Sky Overlord, the Fierce Ankylosaurus. If necessary, we can also deploy the Gray Mountain Giant Whales patrolling the sea, and even awaken the ancient sea beasts dormant beneath the Meteor Reef."

"Why give up so easily?" the mage representative replied.

"Because it's not worth it! There's no benefit." A noble representative who had been silent raised his hand and said.

"I don't know what kind of hatred or fighting there is between your two factions of mages, but for the entire Hinaberry Kingdom, continuing the fight will not bring any benefits."

"So what if Clancy wins? They won't give us any more territory. Besides, an enclave requires garrisoning and protecting it, which costs a lot and doesn't bring much benefit."

"If we continue to confront the Frost Alliance, we will be caught in an endless, money-burning race. This will consume a lot of manpower and resources, and will also greatly affect trade and cause economic setbacks."

"So, why should we fight for Clancy? Just because the Starlight Witch is beautiful and everyone likes her? Ridiculous!" said the noble representative righteously.

After his speech, various buzzing discussions broke out in the venue, and many people began to agree with his statement.

"It seems that there is really no benefit in continuing this confrontation."

"That's right, those mages are too immersed in the resentment of the past."

"I think it's more comfortable to just lie at home and make money. Why do you have to provoke the Frost Alliance?"
