Chapter 1219: Not a concession



When Lin Ke heard Nan Tong's words, he just smiled.

"Although on the surface it seemed that he was being rude to me, in reality, this was just normal friction that arises when different civilizations first come into contact."

"What they are actually resisting is not our behavior, but our kingdom and culture."

"I believe that if the Persian Empire's ships were docked here today, they would not dare to speak so rudely."

Of course, Lin Ke had reasons to say this.

Because, when mentioning Persia, even the Greeks who had a grudge against Persia would not easily speak wildly.

Simply put, it was because of the strength of the Persian Empire and their status in the World Conference.

Therefore, even if Persia docked here today, the other party would definitely not make such contemptuous accusations.

When the people around Lin Ke heard what Lin Ke said, they nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is right."

"If people from other kingdoms were here today, they would certainly not dare to be so presumptuous."

In Lin Ke's opinion, if the other party was facing the Persian Empire, they would probably have to greet them politely first and understand all the situations before they dared to speak carefully.

Instead of attacking indiscriminately as they did when facing Saint Egypt, they just met.

Afterwards, Lin Ke continued to speak.

"If we, Holy Egypt, want to be accepted and respected by the world, we must demonstrate magnanimity and wisdom that surpass those of traditional powerful nations."

"However, apart from this, the most important thing is to show the outside world the true strength of our Holy Egypt."

“Without hard power, even if you have magnanimity and wisdom, it is completely useless.”

"So, what Nan Tong did just now was very good. At least these guys can clearly understand that Holy Egypt now has its own fleet and the Great Sun Mage."

Everyone nodded, and Nan Tong continued to ask, "But Your Majesty, if you want to show your strength, you can let me perform some magic to open their eyes."

"Otherwise, those who cannot sense my magical power will probably find it difficult to understand my magical power."

Lin Ke listened to Nan Tong's words and just raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"That's not the case. If you take the initiative, the situation will be unfavorable for Holy Egypt."

"This is Delos Island, the venue for the World Conference."

"You must remember, no matter what happens, we must not be the first to attack."

"Once an attack spell is cast, its nature changes completely."

He paused again when he said this.

Then, Lin Ke turned his head and looked at the people who were looking at the Holy Egyptian team with curiosity and friendly smiles.

Even in the distance, someone was waving to the warriors of Holy Egypt.

"Of course, sometimes, making appropriate concessions can win more respect from others."

"It is certainly best to achieve our goals through words rather than violence."

Nan Tong looked at the expressions and actions of the people around him and immediately understood what Lin Ke meant.

He stood in awe and said, "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is truly far-sighted. I truly admire you."

Their conversation took place when they were getting off the boat.

Then, some people who were already curious about Holy Egypt heard these words.

Several Greek elders nodded frequently, seeming to agree with this.

As for the young people, they looked surprised. Obviously, they did not expect that this ruler from a distant country would be so well versed in the ways of the world.

However, Lin Ke's words won the admiration of many intellectuals present. After all, in Greece, the number of scholars was greater than in other kingdoms and civilizations.

At least this is true in terms of the proportion of the total population.

“I never thought that the ruler of Holy Egypt would be such a person.”

"It really has a bit of the flavor of General Pericles."

Nan Tong also heard this, but he just narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at those people out of the corner of his eye.

Lin Ke smiled slightly. He did not respond and just continued to walk away.

Behind him, the guards of Holy Egypt were lined up in an orderly manner, with two people in each group carrying luggage and supplies.

They had well-developed muscles and dark skin, but their movements were extremely agile and light. The Greeks who had served as soldiers could tell at a glance that these holy Egyptian soldiers were people who had undergone rigorous training.

The people on the dock involuntarily made way for the Holy Egyptian team, and many people looked at these soldiers and items from foreign countries with interest.

Exquisite bronze vessels, fragrant pottery jars, and wooden boxes engraved with mysterious hieroglyphs.

All the items unloaded from the ship attracted people's curious eyes, even ordinary boxes could attract their attention.

"It doesn't seem to be much different from what we use, right?"

"Oh? But those jars...why do they look so familiar?"

"I think I've seen it in a market before?"

Lin Ke ignored those words. He just remained silent, waiting for his soldiers to pack up, and then moved forward steadily.

At this moment, a familiar figure came into his sight.

It was the same Greek officer who had previously dissuaded him from anchoring at the main berth.

At this moment, the officer stood at the edge of the dock with a grateful look on his face.

Obviously, he was going to leave with Lin Ke's ship, but now he looked at Lin Ke with great respect in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, Holy Pharaoh, thank you for your understanding. Your actions today have saved many people."

"Of course! Including me."

Lin Ke stopped and looked at the Greek officer.

His voice was very gentle: "No need to thank me."

"However, I hope you can inform the World Congress's organizers of today's events."

"I believe you don't want to experience something like this again."

Of course, although the other party also knew that the next World Conference would definitely not be held here, he was still very grateful to Lin Ke.

At this time, Lin Ke's ship began to move slowly. He left the berth at the port and began to sail farther away.

People watched the way the ship left, without oars, without any other auxiliary tools, only those two big sails.

They couldn't understand how such a large ship could leave here so easily.

After all, it takes a lot of sailors working together to get a ship out of its berth.

This has increased many people's curiosity about Holy Egypt.

The Greek officer looked at Lin Ke and nodded with emotion.

Then he pointed in the direction the ship left.

"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh..."
