Nadir Shah then slowly raised his hand, but it was a completely different gesture from the one he had used towards Leonidas.
That was not a move to "welcome" the other side, but a move to make his Persian warriors quiet down.
As expected, as soon as Nadir Shah raised his hand, the entire battlefield fell silent.
After a long time, he finally spoke.
"Holy Pharaoh."
"The sacred relic of our Persia is in your hands."
"Although your behavior today was offensive, I don't care."
"However, I can still give you a gift."
"Leave Leonidas to me."
Lin Ke did not respond to this question at this time, but looked at the Persian soldiers and spoke slowly.
"I just heard someone say I'm the chief of the desert."
"To some extent, that's true. However, I am the chieftain of dozens of cities in Holy Egypt. Besides that, I am also the leader of the Holy Egypt Alliance."
"The number of people I can command is not that large, only about 100,000."
As soon as Lin Ke finished speaking, many Persian soldiers began to continue to mock him, but most of them were saying things like "lying", "bragging" and "how dare you be compared with Persia".
But it is not difficult to find that some Persians are no longer as arrogant as before. They just squint their eyes slightly and express doubts about this.
Lin Ke naturally would not give the Persian soldiers a chance to speak again, and he immediately raised his voice.
However, his voice immediately became louder. At the same time, many Persian magicians seemed to have noticed something and began to turn their heads left and right.
"And some say, I dare to threaten the King of Kings? I only defeated a small Hebrew Empire?"
"I, Saint Egypt, am not good at speaking. If this makes you feel threatened, it is my honor."
"As for the Hebrew Empire, we, the Holy Egypt, defeated their twelve gods. When we arrived in Jerusalem, we also defeated their two supreme gods."
"If your country defines the Hebrew Empire as a small country, then surely the Persian Empire must have been a very powerful and mighty kingdom and civilization."
"As the King of Kings, as the leader of Persia, why don't you show your magnanimity and stop the war?"
After Lin Ke finished speaking, more Persians fell silent.
They looked at Lin Ke, and the doubts in their eyes increased exponentially, but most people still did not believe what Lin Ke said.
But the king of Sparta, Leonidas, continued to hold his weapon tightly in his hand and stood behind Lin Ke with his chest straight.
He looked at Lin Ke's back thoughtfully, becoming increasingly confused about the "motives" of this Holy Pharaoh.
Nadir Shah took a deep breath at this time. Obviously, he was very unhappy with Lin Ke's way of asking and answering irrelevant questions.
So he spoke slowly again.
"Defeated twelve gods."
"It seems that what the Holy Pharaoh said is true. Holy Egypt is indeed a powerful kingdom and civilization."
"It is also an honor for Persia to be able to talk with a ruler from a great civilization."
Nadir Shah deliberately emphasized the words "great civilization" and dragged out the words deliberately. The irony is self-evident.
Obviously, in the eyes of the Persians, although Holy Egypt is an ancient country with a long history, it is still a small emerging country and cannot be compared with a civilization like Greece.
Nadir Shah was sitting elegantly on his royal chair at this time, with his head held high and looking at Lin Ke, as if he was looking at an ordinary subordinate of his.
"So, what is the reason why you came here today?"
"Is it to save your injured Greek friend? Or is it really, as you said, for the so-called peace?
"But there are also many ways to achieve peace."
"After all, we are all rulers with heavy responsibilities. Why should we dwell on momentary unhappiness?"
"Since you have chosen to lead the gods here, I'm afraid you are just like your foolish Greek friend, right?"
"Why not?"
Nadir Shah said this and raised one arm.
"Give me Leonidas and the Sword of Truth, and I will grant you the gift I bestowed upon Leonidas."
"Holy Pharaoh, the entire Greek world will bow down at your feet."
"And you only need to submit to me."
"You lose your Greek friends, but the entire Greek world will be handed over to you, including the Athenians, whom your Greek friends hate the most."
"Well, I think Leonidas would be happy for you to accept this condition."
Leonidas snorted coldly, and that sound made Nadir Shah's face turn very ugly again.
Lin Ke's face remained expressionless, his eyes always fixed on Nadir Shah.
"King of kings of Persia, I hope you will reconsider your plans to invade Greece."
"This will not benefit the Persian Empire at all, but will instead consume a huge amount of resources and cause unnecessary casualties."
"The World Conference is about to be held. As a participating party, I am afraid that Holy Egypt will find it difficult to accept your conditions."
"This is our first time attending a world conference. We hope the King of Kings and the King of Sparta will give us, Holy Egypt, some respect."
"Why don't we just call it a day and meet at the World Conference?"
Several Persian generals immediately raised their voices: "Face? How much is the face of Holy Egypt worth?"
"The King of Kings offers you the entire Greek world, and you're still thinking about that poor desert?"
After these words were spoken, many people continued to laugh.
"Holy Pharaoh, you are new here, and I'm afraid you haven't seen the Greek cities with your own eyes yet?"
"Any of their cities is a hundred times stronger than the city of Holy Egypt!"
"I advise you to think carefully before you speak."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be two fewer people attending this World Conference."
Lin Ke narrowed his eyes at this time.
"So, the King of Kings and your country's many generals are planning to prevent Holy Egypt from attending the conference?"
"If that's the case, I'm afraid the Persian army and Holy Egypt will suffer heavy losses."
When Nadir Shah heard this, he showed an expression of suppressed anger.
"The Holy Pharaoh actually cares about the casualties of our Persian army?"
Then Nadir Shah turned to the generals around him.
"Did you hear that? The Pharaoh of Holy Egypt is worried about our soldiers suffering too many casualties."
"It's touching that he cares about the King of Sparta and our Persian Empire, isn't it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was another burst of laughter.
"Holy Pharaoh, why don't you open your eyes and take a good look?"
"Everywhere you look, you see the army of the Persian Empire!"
