The various representatives became serious when they heard that.
Because this breakfast was too impactful, it gave them a sense of satisfaction as if they had done something big. However, on second thought, they had only had breakfast, and the real meeting had yet to begin.
As the representatives of their species, they bore the responsibility of fighting for the absolute benefits for their species, and even more so, they had to fight for their species' reputation in front of the various representatives.
This meeting was a little rushed, but it had the support of the giant dragons and Chaos City as the host. Furthermore, it was held on the eve of the peace conference, so the various species attached great importance to it.
However, the various species could only guess that this meeting had something to do with the peace conference. As for the specific content and what the giant dragons and Chaos City wanted to do, none of them knew.
Joe sat up straight, and retracted his gaze that he was sneaking glances at Irina. This was his first time representing the empire to attend a meeting of this level. If his performance could satisfy the king, he would not be far from defeating Sean. Hence, he had to perform better.
"I really want to go back to sleep …" Vanessa leaned against the chair at the side, and covered her mouth as she yawned. She was so excited about having hot pot that she couldn't sleep last night, and woke up early this morning. Now that she had the hot pot, everything was perfect. When she heard that everyone was going to talk about serious matters, sleepiness hit her immediately, and her eyelids started to tremble.
"Michael, the peace conference is going to be officially held in a few days. Why can't we wait until the conference? Why do we have to hold this meeting a few days in advance?" Auster asked, perplexed.
The various representatives also looked at Michael. This was also a question that everyone couldn't understand.
"It's not that we're in a hurry. It's because time waits for no one," Michael said with a serious expression. "Two days ago, Chaos City and the giant dragons jointly sent out invitations to all the species to gather at Chaos City. We're in such a hurry because we have something to discuss. It concerns the survival of all the species on the Norland Continent."
"The three of us drafted the joint application, and sent it out together with Chaos City," Louis said in a deep voice.
Douglas and Franklin nodded slightly to show their acknowledgment of Louis's words.
The expressions of the representatives of the various races changed slightly. Could it be that the Nora Continent was facing some kind of terrible disaster for the three giant dragons to treat it so seriously?
Josh looked at Michael, Louis, and the rest. These people could be said to be the top powerhouses on the Nora Continent. The overall strength of the giant dragons could only be stronger than that of the Roth Empire. What exactly was the opponent that even they had to treat so seriously?
"Could it be …" A certain possibility occurred to Josh, and a hint of panic flashed through his eyes.
"He …" Irina was also examining Josh. She didn't notice him when she saw him from afar yesterday, but Josh's aura today made her feel a little strange.
Irina and Joshua had known each other for many years, and they got along quite well. He was one of her few friends.
However, she did not expect Joshua to lay his hands on Meg and Amy, and even lie to her after the incident, pretending to be kind and righteous to help her find them.
She wanted nothing more than to take out a folding chair and smack him flat.
However, when he saw Josh this time, he felt that he had become a little different. It was as if there was a hint of gloominess emanating from him.
Could it be a psychological effect? Irina thought to herself doubtfully. She had considered the possibility of the devil, but the Holy Light didn't give her any guidance or hints.
Michael said in a low voice, "In the past 100 years, the Nora Continent had achieved a rare peace because of the armistice agreement back then. The people of the various races were able to recuperate, and Chaos City was born because of that. It became a city formed by the people of the various races.
"As the third city lord of Chaos City, I am very grateful to the various races for abiding by the armistice agreement in the past 100 years. I am grateful to all of you for restraining yourselves and allowing the Nora Continent to have a precious peace.
"However, the 100-year period is coming, and the armistice agreement signed by the various races back then is going to lose its effect. What will happen next might be the resumption of the racial war and countless deaths.
"Therefore, the first item of today's meeting is a proposal on behalf of Chaos City to the various races. I hope that the various races can renew the armistice agreement for another 100 years."
The restaurant sank into silence. The various races' representatives sized each other up, but none of them were in a hurry to speak.
Actually, the various races had already expected this.
Chaos City's existence was very special. The armistice agreement was signed here, and the Bastie Prison was built here to imprison a batch of extremely vicious war criminals. The first residents of Chaos City were the wardens and their families who were sent by the various races to guard the Bastie Prison.
Chaos City was the place where all the races converged. It could be said to be the center of the Nora Continent. Its geographical location was very unique, and it was able to trade with all the races. It was also very tolerant, so it became a huge city with a population of over a million in just 100 years. All the races lived and thrived here, and lived in peace.
The city lord's castle and the Gray Temple that were set up in the early stages of the city's construction turned Chaos City from a chaotic and sinful place into the safest city on the Nora Continent. It was also because of this that it attracted a group of like-minded powerhouses from various races, and allowed Chaos City to become a power that could establish itself on the Nora Continent.
Since it started with peace, it naturally wanted peace.
This was in line with Chaos City's wishes, and also in line with the vision of the powers that were not powerful enough.
Josh frowned when he heard that. He was summoned to the palace the night before he set off, and the king's instructions were still ringing in his ears. The Roth Empire was unprecedentedly strong after generations of hard work. How could they be willing to continue guarding that little territory?
"We vampires agree with Chief Michael's words. Peace. What a beautiful word. We no longer want to be bloodthirsty killers in the dark. Red wine is the new way of life," Dracula said with a smile as he swirled his red wine glass.
Everyone looked at Dracula. This young ancestor of the vampires had already started to make decisions for the vampires?
"Ha. Dracula, can you represent the vampires?" Westin the Demon of Destruction sneered.
"No matter what, I am one of the only two ancestors of the vampires, the youngest ancestor in history, and the future leader of the vampires. Is it that difficult to make a decision?" Dracula said to Westin with a smile. "You, on the other hand, are you Cakaba's stepping stone, or Thelma's background wall?"
"You!" Westin's face flushed red instantly as he glared at Dracula. This cowardly vampires actually dared to talk back to him like that.
The representatives who knew some inside information were already smiling.
The Demon of Destruction was not weak among the demons. Among them, the great elder, Cakaba, was known as the demon with the most destructive power. The second elder, Thelma, had turned the tides many times in the Demon of Destruction's wars, and was also rather famous.
In comparison, the third brother, Westin, was indeed reduced to a background wall, and had an awkward position in the demons.
"You don't have to say anything. Anyway, you can't make the decision on this matter," Dracula said with a smile.
"Maybe he wants to usurp the throne," Camilla said.
"Haha. He wouldn't dare even if he had 10 guts," Dracula said with disdain.
"You … You guys … You're infuriating me!!!" Westin was fuming.
The various representatives were secretly laughing at the side. They didn't expect the demons to have an internal conflict when the meeting had just started. Moreover, it wasn't the abyss demons or the flaming demons who started it.
