Frius was indeed an ambitious monarch.
During the three days that Allen stayed in Bu Luo City, the two of them spent almost half of their time at the negotiating table. Although the division of the gray zone could be simply divided by the sea of blood, the sea of blood did not completely divide Agares into two. At the end of the sea of blood, the land was connected, and that was the vast gray zone.
It was a land that even Frius had never been to before. After all, ever since Dobia was established, his attention had been focused on the Demonic Shadow Kingdom.
The war between the two countries, from Frius' point of view, was to prove himself. He was a man who liked to conquer; for Spenak, it was to consume the Balts in his country. The Balts' exceptional fertility kept their population high. If they didn't consume it through war, the income and expenditure of the Demonic Shadow Kingdom would have long since lost balance.
Moreover, through war, the overall combat strength of the Balts could be maintained. It was no exaggeration to say that the Balts had already been a warrior since they were children.
Now that the Demonic Shadow Kingdom and Dobia had stopped fighting, both the population growth and the mood of the soldiers needed to be taken into account. At this time, opening up to the gray zone was almost the only choice.
The gray zone was very broad. If it was used to conquer, even if it was to be shared with each other, it would still take a lot of time. Although the barbarian tribes in the gray zone did not form the concept of a country, there was no lack of experts in these tribes, and there would even be general-level experts.
This wasn't surprising. Agares was far from heaven, but the planet was definitely rich in Origin Energy. On a planet with a harsh environment but rich in Origin Energy, there was no other way to survive except to become stronger. In such an environment, the weak had long since been brushed away by time, and the rest were experts with absolute strength.
It was definitely not an easy task to conquer the gray zone. Perhaps it would be easy for a Paragon to take action. But neither Frius nor Allen would do so. The reason was simple.
They had to use the gray land to consume their population and give the soldiers who had been fighting for years something to do.
The gray zone became a training ground.
However, this training ground was incomparably vast, but no matter how vast it was, there was still a limit. Therefore, the two countries had to draw their respective boundaries so as not to cause conflict. On this basis, intelligence and even resources could be exchanged.
There was no lack of experts in the gray zone. When these experts were conquered, the combat strength of the two countries would also increase.
Especially the Devil Shadow Kingdom.
There were many reasons why the comprehensive strength of the Specter Kingdom was weaker than Dobia. One was the laissez-faire attitude of the previous emperor, and the second was after Allen took over the throne, there were many rebellions, which led to the death of a large number of soldiers and generals. This was especially true for the Imperial Great Generals. Nearly half of the ten Great Generals had died. This was unprecedented in the history of the Kingdom of Specter.
If it weren't for Allen's promotion to Supreme Master at this time, the Specter Kingdom would have been annexed by Dobia, even if this hard bone wasn't easy to chew.
Now that there was a gray area, the two countries would live in harmony. At least before the interests of the gray area were completely divided up, Frius wouldn't easily set his sights on the Magic Shadow Kingdom. He knew very well that Allen was completely different from Spenak. It could be seen from the three consecutive days of negotiations that Allen did not give in to the division of the gray area. If it was Spenak, he would probably lack interest in this kind of negotiation.
After three days of negotiations, the gray area was clearly drawn by the two Sovereigns. According to the new boundary drawn by the two of them, the armies on both sides would only be active in their respective areas, but at the border of this boundary, the two sides could exchange intelligence and supplies.
In addition to the cooperation in the gray area, the Specter Kingdom and Dobia had also signed various cooperation agreements ranging from war supplies to livelihood expenses. There were no less than a hundred such agreements, which were negotiated by Berukai and the Specter Kingdom's diplomatic corps in the past three days.
This was the first time the two countries had cooperated since their establishment, and the cooperation spanned such a large area that even the people on both sides found it unbelievable.
On the fourth day, the Specter Kingdom's fleet set off and left Buluo City. At this moment, it also meant that a new page had been turned in the history of Agares.
In the Dark Castle, Frius was looking at the huge map hanging on the wall. It was a map that had been rushed out yesterday. The map had clearly circled the respective territories of the Specter Kingdom and Dobia. On this map, Frius seemed to see the raging flames of war.
Footsteps sounded.
Frius did not turn around and knew that Berukai, who had gone to the port to see him off, had returned.
"Your Majesty, the Specter Kingdom's fleet has left." Berukai knelt down and said.
Frius turned around and asked softly, "How's that going?"
"It's already underway."
"Yes." Frius nodded and sat down in front of the map. He tapped the armrest with his fingers and said, "Before Allen returned, a fleet entered the Lost Realm. This fleet brought a large number of troops, and there was no lack of General-level experts among them. But strangely enough, this army stayed in the Forgotten Realm. "
"Judging from the relationship between the Forgotten Realm and Allen, to be able to accommodate this army in the Forgotten Realm, it is clear that this army belongs to Allen. This army should be his private army. Judging from the information you have gathered, there are some soldiers in that army that are very similar to the information Spenak once gathered. "
Frius narrowed his eyes and said, "Those are the soldiers of the Burning Legion."
"Burning Legion?" Berukai obviously didn't know what it was.
Frius looked at the dome as if he was looking at a certain time in the past. "Spenak once showed me, from the clues he gathered. When the dusk of the universe comes, there will be a legion of strange creatures that will sweep across the entire universe. Because the patterns that describe them are all represented by flames, Spenak calls them the Burning Legion. "
"There's actually a Burning Legion in Allen's army. In addition, he knows so much about the dusk of the universe, so I think he should have a close relationship with the dusk of the universe. In fact, there must be a relationship between him and the Sovereign Realm in such a short period of time. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? "
Frius's eyes shone with a scorching light. "So I'm curious. I'm curious how he obtained this power. If I can learn the secret of him becoming a Sovereign, I might be able to improve my bottleneck again.
”
Berukai lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. We've already planted enough spies to monitor the emperor's every move. In your eyes, he will no longer have any secrets. "
"Very good, but you still have to be careful. You can underestimate anyone, but never underestimate a Paragon. "
After returning to Demonic Ring City, Luci and Bloy asked to leave and promised to send 40% of their troops to Agares within two months. After they left, Allen asked Bavari to send the map of the gray zone to Davelyn, who was in charge of expansion, so as not to cause unnecessary conflict with Dobia.
At the same time, he learned from the military that Dobia had begun to withdraw his men from the gray zone yesterday, including the merchants who supported the tribe. It seemed that Frius had also begun to fulfill his promise. The expansion plan of the gray zone was a great thing for the Demonic Shadow Kingdom. Without Dobia's interference, the Demonic Shadow Kingdom could transfer its enthusiasm for war to its expansion plan. If there was no more war, the soldiers of the Demonic Shadow Kingdom would probably be suffocated.
This was the Balts, born to kill.
In the next few days, a large number of troops that had been stockpiled in Furnace City were continuously sent to the gray zone to meet up with Davelyn's troops in the Dark Canyon. As the army arrived, equipment, supplies, ordnance, and so on were continuously transported to the gray zone along the previously built supply line. At the same time, the merchants began to get busy. As the expansion plan was carried out, hundreds of business opportunities emerged.
As a result, the Demonic Shadow Kingdom was like a huge machine. When the gear called war started to turn, it pushed the other gears, and in the end, the entire machine started to rumble!
A week after returning to Demonic Ring City.
It was afternoon, and Allen was sitting on the grass near two tombstones in the garden of the bedroom. Adele rested her head on his thigh, holding a book of poems she had brought from Earth. After the transformation, the sunlight that poured down from the great fault fell on their bodies, bringing warmth to the castle that used to be cold and gloomy.
Allen's gaze fell on the two tombstones. He thought of the two unfortunate sisters and sighed in his heart. It was only today that he had finally digested the impact of Light Orchid's will. Only now did Orchid's will of dusk completely fuse into his life. Everything that Lan Jie had experienced had become a part of his experience. As for that style of dusk, it was even more perfect.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps rang out. Allen could tell from the voice that it was Lucy. Then he heard Lucy's joyful voice, "The location of the second coordinate has been roughly determined."
Allen raised his head, while Adele closed the book and sat up. Lucy came to their side with the Origin Slate and sat down on the lawn. "I just received a message from the Academy of Truth. They have already analyzed the approximate location of the second coordinate. You definitely won't be able to guess where it is."
Allen rubbed her head unhappily and said, "You're still keeping me in suspense. Tell me quickly. Where is it? "
"The Garden of Eden!" Lucy said with a smile, "You didn't expect that there would be a treasure vault on that planet, right? However, we only know that the treasure vault is on that planet. It will take time to analyze the exact location, but we can set off first. Maybe when we get to the Garden of Eden, the exact coordinates will come out. "
