"Elder Peng, if that's the case, do you think we can still agree to their conditions?" Mara Outer Monarch trusted Elder Peng when he saw how thorough the situation was.
"Outer Monarch, although these conditions are a bit harsh, we have no choice but to agree because we don't have time to change the content. Besides, perhaps Outer Monarch should ask Elder Long. After all, he was the one who brought this contract back! "Elder Peng said calmly.
Although it was a simple sentence, the meaning of this sentence was very clear. The negotiation of the contract was very poor. Now that Mara was in a critical situation, there was no time to change it even if he wanted to.
It took more than 40 days to travel from Mara to Tian Cang. Who knew how long the Dragon Eagle and Xiao Hai would stop fighting for? If the Dragon Eagle and Xiao Hai saw that Tian Cang had no intention of fighting, they would continue to attack Mara. That would be really bad.
"Elder Long, do you think I should agree to the conditions of this contract?" Mara Outer Monarch was very confident in Elder Long.
However, he never expected that he would bring back such a contract. How could he be satisfied with Elder Long? He felt that Elder Long was already very kind to him by not getting angry at him directly.
"Outer Monarch, I think you should agree!" Elder Long calmed down and was not as worried as he was at the beginning.
After all, he did everything for Mara with a clear conscience. He had tried his best to negotiate such conditions.
"Tell me your reason!" Seeing Elder Long's attitude, Mara Outer Monarch's anger was slowly ignited.
"If Outer Monarch had listened to Tian Cang's previous conditions, perhaps you wouldn't think that these conditions are too harsh!" Elder Long said.
"Then tell me, what were their conditions before?" Mara Outer Monarch asked curiously. Even the others were a little curious.
If these conditions were not harsh, they would really like to hear what was harsh.
"First, we only need to provide Tian Cang with the resources they need to help us break out of the encirclement. In the beginning, they asked for all the resources they need to invade the Xiaohai Ocean, including the resources they need to invade the Xiaohai Ocean after they help us break out of the encirclement!" Elder Dragon said.
Everyone was stunned. If that was the case, then Elder Long had indeed saved them a lot of resources. One had to know that helping Moro get out of his predicament might only require a great battle. This would be done in a very short period of time, and it might not require a lot of resources.
However, if Tian Cang wanted to start a war against the Howling Sea and even wanted to devour it, it would be a long battle. For example, the war between the three dynasties had already lasted for a year.
The amount of resources consumed in a year was not a small number. In fact, it was more than a third of a year's worth of resources.
Therefore, from this perspective, this condition seemed to be quite reasonable.
"That's it?" Outer Mara Monarch's face looked a little better. It seemed that Elder Long had not done nothing in Tian Cang. At the very least, he had saved Mara Monarch a lot of resources with this condition.
But if that was all, it was definitely not enough to appease his anger!
Elder Long continued, "Secondly, Tian Cang wanted us to give them half of our resources every year for 100 years!" "Yes," Elder Long said. "That's right.
"What? Hand over half of our resources every year for 100 years? Is Tian Cang trying to force us into a dead end? "
"That's right. How are we supposed to cultivate if we hand over half of our resources?" Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this condition.
Mara Outer Monarch frowned. If this was what Tian Cang had proposed in the beginning, then Elder Long would have reduced half of the resources to one-third and the time limit to 50 years. In this case, it really wasn't that harsh.
"Is what Elder Long said true?" However, only Elder Long himself knew whether this was the case or not.
"We can write a letter to Outer Mara Monarch to find out whether this is true or not. If it wasn't for Mara Monarch's critical situation, I wouldn't have agreed to this condition.
At first, I only agreed to give them one-fifth of the resources and 20 years. However, they didn't agree. Moreover, Mara Monarch was in danger, so I could only slowly increase the bargaining chips. However, Tian Cang Monarch was too ambitious. They refused to send troops without meeting their requirements.
Originally, they weren't willing to send troops before they got the contract back. In the end, I had no choice but to take a gamble in order to help Mara Monarch out of his predicament. If they didn't send troops immediately, then we'd split up and no one would benefit in the end.
After I left Tian Cang Monarch, they finally sent a million troops to Cangyang City and Wanzhou City. Therefore, I believe that although this condition is a bit excessive, I tried my best and didn't let Mara Monarch down.
Moreover, as long as Tian Cang Monarch and Xiaohai go to war, we will have a chance to reverse the situation. We can even attack the Dragon Hawk's territory and seize their cities.
In this way, we might even be able to gather one-third of the resources from the Dragon Hawk's territory. Moreover, even if it's not enough, we can add more. It won't be a big loss.
The situation that Elder Peng mentioned just now is indeed true. However, the only thing we can do now is to take back the cities we lost and occupy the Dragon Hawk's territory as much as possible. Only in this way can we minimize our losses, "Elder Long explained.
"I see. In that case, it's really hard for you to go to Tian Cang this time, Elder Long!" After listening to Elder Long's description of his situation in Tian Cang, he felt a lot of emotions in his heart. He really couldn't blame Elder Long anymore.
Given Mara Monarch's current situation, it was reasonable for Tian Cang to be aggressive. Perhaps Elder Long's situation in Tian Cang was much more difficult than what he said.
After all, Elder Long was just one person there, while they were a group of people.
"As long as Mara Monarch can really rise, what's the big deal about my suffering? I don't know if Outer Monarch has heard that the relationship between the Dragon Hawk and Xiaohai is very subtle. At least, their alliance isn't as solid as we thought.
Therefore, as long as Tian Cang helps us in the south, it won't be as difficult for Mara Monarch to counterattack.
Because Xiaohai is being attacked by Tian Cang, the Dragon Hawk will never help Xiaohai. Similarly, Xiao Hai won't help the Dragon Hawk when it's under attack! "Elder Long continued to say.
"Elder Long, are you talking about the Dragon Hawk occupying the Four Cities of Xiaohai?" Mara Monarch smiled.
