"What's the request? The only requirement is to eliminate the infected and demons, right?"
"Aren't our undead warriors destroying the infected and demons?"
Zhang Peng asked back, tilting his head.
"The purpose of us hiring undead warriors is to completely eliminate the infected and demons in the territory, instead of chasing the infected and demons everywhere like we are doing now, but without any results, and their numbers are still increasing!" Delqia said dissatisfiedly.
This is the starting point of the elders and nobles. They want to completely eliminate the infected and demons, but the undead obviously failed to do so.
"Let's be clear up front, I'm very unhappy about the statement that nothing has been accomplished."
"Without us Undead Warriors, the number of infected people in your Skaven territory would probably increase several times. You should know where the word infected comes from, right?"
"If you fight them, your soldiers will also be infected and become infected themselves. Only we, the undead, are not afraid of their infection."
"I hope you understand this: we undead don't care about the infected."
Zhang Peng spread out his hands, shrugged, and said indifferently.
The gray mist wanted to infect, at least living things.
The undead are a group of guys who rely on soul fire to exist. The gray fog virus has no effect on them at all, and they can coexist with them.
You infect yours, I play mine, and we don't affect each other.
The reason why Li Ziyu formulated the mercenary plan was not because of the gray fog, but because of the infected people.
If left unchecked, the Skaven territory is likely to be flooded with infected people, which will then form a large army and start a war against the Undead.
When the undead mercenaries intervene, the number of infected people can be effectively controlled.
The infected can attack the ratmen to reduce their number. When the undead are infected again and have not yet formed a large number, they can attack the infected to suppress the troubles and crises that the infected may bring to the undead.
Do you really think the undead will save the ratmen for a few resources?
What are you doing?
Li Ziyu's goal is to unify the entire wasteland. The ratmen are like stones blocking the way, and they must be moved away when there is a chance.
Just as Delqia was thinking about how to refute Zhang Peng, Zhang Peng spoke again and continued.
"Then let's talk about the problem of the infected and demons still existing."
"When we hired the undead warriors, we didn't say we would wipe out all the infected and demons. What we promised was to help you ratmen deal with the infected and demons." Zhang Peng said seriously.
"No, if that's the case, why would we, the ratmen, hire you?" Delqia felt that he had found a breakthrough and asked immediately.
"This is an interesting question. Isn't it because it's difficult for you ratmen soldiers to fight against the infected? Aren't you afraid of being infected by the infected? That's why you agreed to hire the undead." Zhang Peng said with a roll of his eyes.
Delqia was stunned.
What you said makes a lot of sense, and I can't find any reason to refute it.
Seeing Delqia remained silent, Zhang Peng spoke to himself, "We Undead can kill the infected and help you fight, but we can't deal with the Gray Mist virus. We're not doctors, so asking us to wipe out all the infected is unrealistic."
"As long as the gray fog exists, the infected will continue to appear. We can't deal with the source, so naturally, there's no option to eliminate all the infected."
"Similarly, as long as that spatial crack is still there, demons will continue to emerge from it. You powerful races can't fill the crack, so do you expect us undead to fill it?"
"If you think that way, then the resources for hiring the undead wouldn't be so limited."
What Zhang Peng said was well-reasoned and logical. Even if the ratmen wanted to take action to hold him accountable, it would be very difficult.
Delqia left Zhang Peng speechless.
The elders and nobles in the House of Representatives gave eloquent speeches, but they did not mention the many messy things that were involved.
Come to think of it, it's true.
The gray fog was created by the ratmen, and the infected people also appeared because of the gray fog.
The Skaven's talent is plague, and their ability to resist viruses is much stronger than other races. Even they cannot resist the gray fog virus, so the undead have even less hope.
He wanted to argue, but he couldn't find a way.
Zhang Peng watched as Delqia opened his mouth to say something, thought for a moment, and then closed his mouth. After a while, he opened his mouth again and closed it again, repeating this several times. Suddenly, he looked very discouraged.
"The most important thing you should do is accept my advice and hire more undead to eliminate the infected and demons."
"Of course, you can say that the Emperor doesn't want this and wants us to help for free."
"But, Mr. Delcha, you have to understand one thing. I'm not a ratman. Your emperor can't control me."
"The Ratmen can stop cooperating with us. Other powerful tribes still want us to send more undead. We have many clients."
Zhang Peng's words were like a sharp knife stabbing into Delqia's chest.
He found that he couldn't say anything he had prepared when he came here, because the words were full of loopholes.
If the emperor's words are to continue to be executed, the only thing that can be used is that the ratmen will go to war with the undead.
But you must never say this out loud, or something serious will happen.
"Okay, Mr. Delcha, I'm afraid you can't decide what happens next. Go contact your emperor and ask him if he needs to hire more undead." Zhang Peng said with a stiff smile on his face.
Delqia fell silent again, looking at Zhang Peng speechless.
