Lu Jinyan looked at Stonehammer and said, "Mister Stonehammer, why did you come here on behalf of the Lost Soul City?"
Stonehammer nodded, then he said, "City Lord Lu, this time I came here on behalf of the City Lord. The City Lord wanted me to tell you that if you need, our Lost Soul City will immediately send people to support Puhe City. As long as City Lord Lu provides us with good food and a place to stay, the number of people can be discussed. Naturally, if City Lord Lu thinks that this isn't the best time for us to support, then we won't oppose it. As long as you think that it's the best time, we will come and support you."
When Lu Jinyan heard Stonehammer, he couldn't help but stare. Then he immediately understood the meaning behind Stonehammer's words. Stonehammer wanted to tell him that the Lost Soul City wouldn't just send reinforcements. They wouldn't just send reinforcements, they would send reinforcements immediately.
However, sending reinforcements would involve a problem. Even if you have good intentions, sending reinforcements might cause misunderstandings. In order to avoid misunderstandings, Zhao Hai had Stonehammer talk to Lu Jinyan. He also told Lu Jinyan that if Lu Jinyan opposed, then he wouldn't need to send reinforcements.
Lu Jinyan was now in a difficult position. Naturally, he understood Zhao Hai's meaning, but he was also in a difficult position. If he agreed to Zhao Hai's reinforcements, then what if Zhao Hai didn't send reinforcements after the battle ended? What would he do then? It was definitely not a good feeling to have someone else's army in one's own territory.
But if he didn't agree, then would the Puhe City be able to withstand the attack of the Holy Court? Moreover, if he didn't agree, would others help him in the future? If other people knew about this, then there wouldn't be many people who would help him in the future. When people help him, they would say, 'You see, the Lost Soul City wanted to help you, but you didn't agree. Now you want us to help you, why should we help you?' This made Lu Jinyan even more troublesome.
This was a real dilemma. It was precisely because of this that Lu Jinyan didn't immediately answer Shi Chui's question. Instead, he sat there and frowned, weighing the pros and cons.
Stonehammer looked at Lu Jinyan's appearance and smiled faintly, "City Lord Lu doesn't need to worry too much. Our City Lord said that the reason why we sent reinforcements to help you is because we want to deal with the Holy Court. We can't let those fellows from the Holy Court have an easy time. Moreover, this is the first battle between the Holy Court and the Holy Court. Therefore, we need to send reinforcements to help you. If you agree, we can send reinforcements at any time. Moreover, we also assure you that as well as the Holy Court's army will, the Lost Soul City's City, we can't let the Holy Court '.
You can rest assured. "Since Stonehammer said this, if Lu Jinyan still didn't agree, then he would be unappreciative. Lu Jinyan looked at Stonehammer and said," Mister Stonehammer is thinking too much. I'm just thinking about where to place your reinforcements. "
Stone Hammer knew that Lu Jinyan wasn't telling the truth, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he smiled and said, "The City Lord has ordered that if City Lord Lu agrees to send reinforcements to Puhe City, then you can arrange an empty barracks for us. There's no need to be too polite. Naturally, it doesn't matter if City Lord Lu doesn't have enough time. Our soldiers can be on standby in Lost Soul City. When you are ready, our reinforcements will arrive. Our reinforcements can all use transmission formations, so the speed of their arrival should be very fast."
When Lu Jinyan heard Stonehammer, he felt relieved. He was sure that Zhao Hai really wanted to support them this time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent reinforcements to Puhe City through the Transmission Formation.
One must know that using the Transmission Formation consumed energy. The more things that were transported, the more energy it would consume. And in order to transport an army, the number of people needed to be transported wouldn't be small. Therefore, the number of times that the Transmission Formation would be used would be a lot. And in this process, the Lost Soul City was the recipient of the Transmission Formation.
At this time, Puhe City's Transmission Formation could transport up to 100 people at a time. If Zhao Hai sent reinforcements to Puhe City, then the Transmission Formation would need to be used 100 times. For a small city like Puhe City, the Transmission Formation wouldn't even be used 100 times a year. From this point, one could see how much money Zhao Hai had spent to support them.
Lu Jinyan opened his mouth and said, "This Lu thanks City Lord Zhao Hai for his kindness. I ask Mister Stonehammer to report back to City Lord Zhao Hai. When we're ready, I'll immediately inform City Lord Zhao Hai. This Lu wants to thank City Lord Zhao Hai once more!"
Stonehammer smiled and said, "City Lord Lu is too polite. Our City Lord said that we're now part of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance. And it's impossible for the Sacred Academy to not know about the formation of the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance. Now that the Sacred Academy suddenly made a move against Puhe City, regardless of whether they have evidence or not, the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance will still take action. This is because we're now in the same group, and we have a common enemy."
Lu Jinyan nodded, then he looked at Stonehammer and said, "Mister Stonehammer, this Lu wants to thank you once more. I ask you to inform City Lord Zhao Hai that this Lu is truly grateful."
Stonehammer smiled and said, "City Lord Lu is too polite. I'll pass on your words to the City Lord. But Mister Lu, our City Lord is currently working on setting the location of the next Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance meeting in Puhe City. But whether it will succeed or not is hard to say. After all, it's too sensitive right now. Any movement we make will cause a reaction from the Sacred Academy. Therefore, it's hard to say whether it will succeed or not. The City Lord said that it would be good if it succeeds, but if it doesn't, then I hope City Lord Lu won't blame him."
Lu Jinyan replied, "How can I blame City Lord Zhao Hai? City Lord Zhao Hai has done a great favor for our Puhe City, and we can't thank him enough."
Stone Hammer smiled and said, "City Lord Lu, I don't need to be polite. Our Lost Soul City-State pays particular attention to efficiency. I already know what you mean. I'll return to Lost Soul City-State and inform the City Lord about this matter. We'll be waiting for your news in Lost Soul City-State. Right, the City Lord also told me to tell you that our Lost Soul City-State fully supports Puhe City. If you need money, we have it, if you need people, we have it!"
Lu Jinyan's body shook, then he stood up and gave Stonehammer a big bow, "On behalf of Puhe City, this Lu would like to thank Lost Soul City for their kindness."
Stonehammer quickly helped Lu Jinyan up and said, "City Lord Lu is too polite. We're brothers, it's only right for us to help each other. City Lord Lu, I'll be leaving now. Take care of yourself."
Lu Jinyan quickly pulled Stonehammer and said, "Mister Stonehammer, how can I let you go back like this? No matter what, please have a meal before you leave. If I let you go back like this, then how can I face Mister Zhao Hai in the future?"
Stonehammer smiled and said, "City Lord Lu is too polite. I really can't eat right now. The City Lord is waiting for my news. Didn't the Sacred Academy say that they wouldn't change their plan? Moreover, whoever dares to stop them would be their enemy. Since we've already agreed, then I'll return as soon as possible and inform the City Lord about this matter. The City Lord should be able to tell the City Lord about our agreement. I hope City Lord Lu won't take offense."
Lu Jinyan didn't take offense. If it was just him and Stonehammer, then the Lost Soul City could go back on their words at any time. Both sides didn't sign any agreement, so if the Lost Soul City doesn't want to admit it, then Lu Jinyan wouldn't be able to do anything. However, if the Lost Soul City revealed this matter, then they wouldn't be able to go back on their words. And if they do, then they would be despised by the entire Spirit Weapon Realm. This was beneficial to Lu Jinyan, so how could he not agree? Because of this, Lu Jinyan immediately said, "Of course, this Lu wouldn't take offense. But this way, there would be no room for reconciliation between the Lost Soul City and the Sacred Academy."
Stone Hammer laughed and didn't say anything. He just cupped his fist towards Lu Jinyan before turning around and walking out. Lu Jinyan sent Stone Hammer out of the City Lord's Mansion. Then he turned around and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion. A scholar beside Lu Jinyan said, "City Lord, what does Zhao Hai want to do? What's his purpose in helping us? "
Lu Jinyan let out a long breath and said, "From Stonehammer's actions, we can see that Zhao Hai is worthy of being called a hero of his generation. Stonehammer is a person who can stand on his own, but he's willing to listen to Zhao Hai's orders. From this point, we can see how powerful Zhao Hai is. This time, no matter what Zhao Hai's purpose is, we must agree. If we don't agree, then will the other cities help us? The Alliance Against Sacred Academy. Hmph, I can see through these people. Sacred Academy just made a statement, and they quarreled with each other. None of them are like Zhao Hai, directly taking action. Those people are unreliable. "
The scholar looked at Lu Jinyan and said, "City Lord, do we really want Zhao Hai to station troops in Puhe City? Won't this cause trouble for us? "
Lu Jinyan let out a long breath and said, "Although I don't know what Zhao Hai's purpose is, it can't be worse than the current situation. Since the Sacred Academy has identified us as the culprit, then when they come to deal with us, they won't be polite. They will certainly go all out. When the time comes, we'll be finished. Even if Zhao Hai wants to occupy Puhe City, then the first thing he needs to do is to repel the Sacred Academy. As for what Zhao Hai will do after defeating the Sacred Academy, we can only talk about it later."
The scholar didn't speak, he knew that what Lu Jinyan said was right. Although the Sacred Academy was an academy on the surface, they wouldn't be polite at all. If the Sacred Academy attacked them without any help, then they would certainly be miserable. Especially Lu Jinyan, they might have a chance to survive. As for Lu Jinyan, he wouldn't have a chance to survive. This was the main reason why Lu Jinyan agreed to Zhao Hai's conditions.
Now, they can only hope that they didn't invite a wolf into their house. Otherwise, Puhe City would become history.
