Contrary to Su Ruoyan's expectations, Su Ximin seemed to be quite satisfied with the manual car. He even briefly explained the reason in the car. It turned out that before Su Ximin made his fortune, he had a dream of owning his own car. Of course, most of the cars at that time were still manual cars, so Su Ximin once wanted a manual car. Later, when he became rich, manual cars gradually withdrew from the market. Hence, it was indeed a little emotional to see it now. If it weren't for the fact that he did not have a driver's license, he even wanted to try driving it. However, he was sternly stopped by Su Ruoyan.
Su Ruoyan had never been in a manual car before, so she was very nervous along the way. Unlike a smooth self-driving car, the speed of a manual car was sometimes fast and sometimes slow. Su Ruoyan had always been worried that there would be problems, but seeing that her father liked it, she didn't say anything.
After sending the two of them home, Zhang Yonglin's task was completed. Li Huailin asked him to go back first while he stayed to chat with Su Ruoyan. Of course, Su Ximin was at home, so it was impossible for Li Huailin to stay overnight. Hence, he went back after chatting for a while.
"I really didn't know that you've learned how to use economic means." Su Ruoyan was a little surprised when she heard that Li Huailin used the land deed to scam the Spiritual world.
"I don't know how to operate it, but I know how to use tricks." Li Huailin said with a smile, "I haven't been online for a long time. I heard that Red Moon has set up a workshop over there. Do you have time to go online recently?"
"Well, I'm almost done with my work. I should have some time to go online recently." Su Ruoyan nodded and said, "To be honest, I'm a little worried. According to your usual practice, I don't know what kind of mess you've made with the territory's economy. You won't leave a huge mess to me, right?"
"Cough, cough, cough …" Li Huailin held his forehead. "There shouldn't be any big problems. Besides, I think I should be able to rob a lot of money recently."
"Oh? Are you preparing for war again? "Su Ruoyan asked.
"Yeah, there will always be people who are not afraid of death coming to provoke me. This time, we will play hard and earn a fortune," Li Huailin said.
Su Ruoyan leaned on Li Huailin's shoulder and said, "Hehe, then I'll finish things here as soon as possible. I'll go online and help you manage the internal affairs."
A day of travel was very tiring. Li Huailin chatted with Su Ruoyan for a while, then sent her back to rest. He called for a taxi and went home. By the time he got home, it was already past two o 'clock in the evening. Li Huailin had a lot of things to do, such as rushing to the undead tomorrow. Since the Alchemy Quest did not have a time limit, he decided to put it aside for now and seize the time to sleep.
Early the next morning, a morning meeting was held in the palace of the Human Race. The topic of discussion was the information that had just been sent. The church had sent two people to report the appearance of the undead in the territory of the Human Race. These two people were only ordinary bishops, so they did not give Anthony any face at all.
"That's strange, what are the undead trying to do?" Anthony asked curiously. They were well aware of the undead's current situation. They had yet to unify the undead, yet they were taking the initiative to provoke the human empire. It did not make sense.
"Your Highness, the undead have illegally entered our territory and slaughtered the civilians of our town. We have to deal with this matter seriously," a minister said.
"Are you saying that we should declare war on the undead empire?" Anthony asked the minister.
"Of course, this is an obvious provocation. If we don't deal with it, people from other countries will be able to enter our territory at will and kill our civilians at will. This is unacceptable," the Minister said immediately.
"I can't agree with Master Sfara." As soon as the minister finished speaking, Prime Minister Mach stepped forward and said, "We have to deal with this matter seriously, but we can't start a war directly. The most direct reason is that we don't have enough food."
Mach glanced at Anthony, and Anthony instantly understood what Mach meant. It was indeed not a good time to start a war with the undead. The main reason was that the rebel army was preparing to move out somewhere. According to Li Huailin's information, the rebel army seemed to have contacted the Dwarves. Therefore, the rebellion could break out at any time. The country's food reserves had to be reserved for suppressing the rebellion, not for the war against the undead.
Of course, not all of the ministers knew about the rebel army. This matter wasn't so easy to explain, because the so-called rebel army was the former King Rein. This was a bit troublesome, because according to the official announcement of the Empire, Rein and his family should be dead, so these ministers were now willing to follow Anthony. If they knew that Rein was still alive and was preparing to restore the Empire, who knows if anyone would follow him. Therefore, Anthony didn't announce this news. The people who knew about it were limited to a few important ministers, and they were people that Anthony trusted, such as Li Huailin and Mach.
That was why Anthony immediately understood Mach's meaning when Mach exchanged a look with Anthony. This matter could not be blown out of proportion. If they really started a war with the undead, it would be very disadvantageous to them.
"Prime Minister Mach is right." Anthony nodded. "But we can't let this matter end like this. The Foreign Affairs Department should ask the undead empire immediately and ask them to explain what is going on. They must give us an explanation."
"Yes, Your Highness." The Foreign Affairs Minister nodded.
On the same day, the capital of the undead empire, Undercity, was also very lively. This was because the five generals of the undead were now gathered in Undercity. Although the undead empire was currently in a state of internal division, it was still a unified country in name. Therefore, there were still many things that needed to be resolved in the name of the country.
In order to deal with these matters, although the generals were at war with each other, they had an agreement. If there was an important matter, one of the generals could come forward and summon the other generals to the main city, Undercity. The five generals would discuss the matter together and come up with a solution.
Of course, due to the distrust between each other, although the generals would come, they would bring a large army. Therefore, every gathering was quite lively. All kinds of undead troops stood outside the city, and every time, it felt like a war was about to break out. This time, they were invited by Soudeis to gather in Undercity.
At this time, in the main hall of the palace in Undercity, the other four generals had already arrived. Since there was no king for the time being, the throne was currently empty. They placed a large table in front of the throne and were now discussing national affairs.
"Soudeis is too arrogant. He was the one who proposed the gathering, but he hasn't shown up yet," said a tall Undead general. The one who spoke was a rather tall Undead General. He was the largest among the four of them and looked like a fierce general. His name was Liu Ke, and he was the strongest among the five Undead Generals.
"Has anyone received any news? Why did Soudeis summon us today? " Asked another Undead general. She was the only female among the five Undead generals. Her name was Fiona, but she looked a little …
"I've heard something," said a general next to her.
"Oh, Maxim, do you know what's going on?" asked Fiona.
"I've received news that Soudeis brought people into the human empire's territory for some reason and slaughtered a town's civilians," said Maxim. Maxim said, "Just now, the Human Empire sent out a diplomatic order to ask us what's going on."
"Huh?" Fiona was slightly stunned. "Why did Soudeis go to the human territory? Did he not have enough corpses? "
"I don't know about that, but I'm guessing that's why he gathered us here today. Let me tell you, though, I won't help Sudaisi clean up his mess. He provoked the Human Empire, so he should take responsibility for it. I don't have time to fight the Human Empire," Maxim said. "That's right.
"Hmph." The four of them snorted at each other. No one was willing to help Soudeis. They all knew what each other meant. If someone wanted to fight the human empire, someone might stab them in the back. Everyone wanted to be the king of the Undead Empire, so their primary target was each other, not the human empire.
Just when the atmosphere was a little tense, the door of the hall slowly opened. Everyone immediately turned around and saw Soudeis, who was the last to arrive. When they were about to speak, everyone's expression suddenly changed because Soudeis did not come alone. There was another person behind him.
Because the five of them did not trust each other, they had a rule that only five people could attend a meeting alone. They were not allowed to bring any accompanying people. Otherwise, they would be afraid of accidents, so they had always followed this rule. But this time, Soudeis actually brought another person to the meeting. What was going on?
Everyone immediately turned to look at this person. This person was wrapped in black cloth, so they couldn't see his face at all. However, this person was carrying a black cross-like greatsword on his back. This greatsword looked very familiar, as if they had seen it somewhere before.
"Sir, please," said Soudeis to Li Huailin as he gestured.
Li Huailin immediately did something that shocked everyone in the hall. He actually walked straight to the throne of the Undead King at the very top.
