Upon hearing this, Lin Ke simply stopped in her tracks.
He looked at Nan Tong, his eyes now showing a hint of seriousness.
"Nantong, the World Conference can indeed give us an international standing."
"But what we've done today has gained us far more than just a conference seat."
"This old minister does not quite understand, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
Nan Tong honestly admitted his confusion.
"Although we did not compete for a seat today, we have shown the world the vision of Holy Egypt."
"I represent our civilization, and our civilization can be a pioneer on new paths."
"We were not swayed by the power of Greece and Spain, but bravely spoke the truth here."
Do you know what this means for small and medium-sized civilizations?
Nan Tong shook his head, indicating his confusion.
"For them, this is like opening a window, letting them see that there is another possibility."
"So what we lost was just a small seat at the World Conference, but we gained a large and growing group of potential allies."
"Of course, it just takes some time."
As the two walked back and forth, the elderly Greek man who had led them earlier watched Lin Ke and Nan Tong from a distance, not daring to approach them at all.
After thinking for a moment, Nan Tong continued speaking to Lin Ke.
"Your Majesty, also, what kind of plan is the Civilizational Alliance you mentioned in your speech just now?"
"Are you really planning to build such an organization?"
As Lin Ke walked, she picked a small olive leaf and twirled it gently between her fingers.
"Of course it's a real plan. In fact, I've been thinking about it for a long time."
"However, coming here today has only strengthened my belief."
"Furthermore, upon returning to Holy Egypt, I intend to establish a new international joint venue in a neutral area along the Mediterranean coast."
Nan Tong's eyes widened in surprise: "The coastal area?"
"You mean the Red Sea region? That is, the sea area further into the Mediterranean Sea from Port Matrouh?"
Lin Ke nodded: "That's right, that's the best choice."
"It is located in the Mediterranean, but it is not under the direct control of any party."
"More importantly, the residents there are deeply influenced by a variety of cultures, which has shaped their unique neutral character, and that is exactly the quality we need."
Nan Tong nodded thoughtfully, but still had doubts: "But Your Majesty, establishing such an international joint venue requires a lot of resources and manpower. Are we really capable of undertaking this?"
"Moreover, if no leader of any civilization comes to participate, wouldn't that mean..."
Lin Ke smiled when she heard this: "The fact that no civilization leader is responding to us now does not mean that they will not in the future."
“Nantong, you have witnessed the establishment of the Holy Egyptian Alliance with your own eyes. You should have some confidence in it.”
"Now, the seeds of civilizational unity have been sown and the soil is being nurtured. When the time is ripe, civilizations will naturally see the value of this new model."
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from afar.
The two looked up and saw a leader dressed in fine clothes but looking anxious. After seeing Lin Ke, he walked quickly toward them.
He was a leader who remained silent while Lin Ke spoke, but whose eyes shone brightly.
"Ah! It's the Holy Pharaoh!"
Looking at the other person's expression, Lin Ke seemed to already know the answer: "Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
"Looks like someone else, like me, has announced their withdrawal, right?"
Upon hearing this, the other person's eyes widened immediately.
"Holy Pharaoh! You are truly a god!"
"While you were speaking, I was thinking..."
When he said this, he simply turned his head to look around before continuing to speak.
"I thought to myself, 'The World Conference actually has such a leader! He's truly admirable!'"
"By the way, just now, King Felipe of Spain left the World Conference. The scene was very intense."
"He looked extremely angry, reportedly because the final resolution of the World Conference was not in Spain's interest."
Lin Ke nodded as if he had expected this: "It seems that both Spain and we are not satisfied with the outcome of the World Conference."
"The difference is that they are the maintainers of the existing order, while we are the advocates of the new order."
Just then, even more people emerged from nearby, so the leader had no choice but to tell Lin Ke that he would send an envoy to Holy Egypt before hastily departing.
After the envoy left, Nan Tong couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, the King of Spain actually chose to leave? They are one of the important member states of the World Conference."
"It's unbelievable."
Lin Ke shook her head at this moment.
"This was expected, and the departure of the Spanish leader proves my point."
"The existing international order is no longer able to adapt to the development of the new situation. Whether it is an old power like Spain or an emerging civilization like ours, they all feel uncomfortable in it."
"The difference is that they are trying to modify it to continue to serve their own interests, while we are prepared to build a completely new and fairer system."
Nan Tong then frankly expressed his concerns: "But I am still a little worried, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"If the alliance of civilizations does not receive enough support, we may find ourselves isolated and helpless."
"Without allies, without support, and possibly even facing sanctions and attacks from powerful nations."
Lin Ke patted Nan Tong on the shoulder, affectionately comforting this loyal Great Sun Magician.
"But wasn't Holy Egypt also gradually breaking away from the control of the Hebrew Empire in the same way?"
"Even if you are in hell, I have a way to save you."
"You just need to trust me."
Upon hearing this, Nan Tong's eyes welled up with tears.
"I believe in you, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"No matter how difficult the road ahead may be, this old minister will follow you to the very end."
Lin Ke nodded in satisfaction.
"alright."
"Now, we need to return to Holy Egypt as soon as possible to begin the actual preparatory work for the union of civilizations."
"At the same time, we will send people to closely monitor the reactions of various countries at the World Conference, especially the changes in attitudes of small and medium-sized civilizations."
"In addition, we must strengthen our military presence along the coast and increase our trade routes as much as possible."
Nan Tong straightened his chest and said, "Yes, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
Meanwhile, one after another, large Egyptian ships sailed away from the island.
Lin Ke, on the other hand, continued to operate on the civilization panel.
He must return to Holy Egypt before the World Conference concludes.
Otherwise, the number of variables will increase.
