Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 1628 - 676: Qiu Tu: I Just Happen to Like More Than One Person (Monthly Ticket Requested)

Hearing the words of the East God King, the Meteor City Lord who was kneeling on the ground quickly looked up and obsequiously asked, "Your Excellency. What method?"

He was clearly a great sidekick, knowing when to shift the topic appropriately.

He pretended to analyze with confusion, "I remember... the 'Crimson Territory' is located deep within the Northern Kingdom, not bordering any other Divine Country."

"And it seems the strength of the Northern God King is insufficient to capture the 'Crimson Territory', while the other God Kings can't make it there."

"So... isn't this an unsolvable problem?"

Upon hearing the Meteor City Lord's words, the East God King let out a light chuckle and said in a voice that was neither male nor female, "It is not."

He countered, "Let me ask you. Why is it that we, the other three God Kings, can't go to the 'Crimson Territory'?"

The Meteor City Lord replied, "Because... the 'Northern Kingdom' is the domain of the Northern God King. If you and the other God Kings went there in your true bodies, you couldn't ensure your own safety."

"And the clones, their strength is not enough to deal with the 'Crimson Territory'."

The East God King nodded slightly, and the expression hidden under the hood was indiscernible. He continued to ask, "Then why can't the Northern God King capture the 'Crimson Territory'?"

The Meteor City Lord thought for a moment, then said, "Because the Northern God King is the weakest among the four God Kings. And Doris can unleash strength comparable to a Heavenly God within the 'Crimson Territory'."

"Moreover, no one knows if she has any other cards to play, so the Northern God King does not want to take the risk."

Upon hearing the Meteor City Lord's words, the East God King nodded again, "Exactly. So... don't you think there's actually a somewhat challenging method that achieves the best of both worlds?"

The Meteor City Lord was clearly not a very clever person. His mind spun, trying to grasp the intent of the East God King.

It took him a full two minutes to finally realize, and then, looking up at the East God King in surprise, he said, "Your Excellency, do you mean... to join forces?"

The East God King responded with a faint "Hmm."

He said, "Yes. The Northern God King attacking the 'Crimson Territory' alone is indeed a bit risky."

"But... what if you add me, and even the West God King?"

"Because the combined strength of the three God Kings could already crush the 'Crimson Territory'. Neither I nor the West God King need to visit in our true bodies; instead, we can entirely send our 'clones'."

"After all, the identity of the two of us has reached the level of a Heavenly God. Along with the Northern God King, even if the 'Crimson Territory' uses all its cards, it will be hard to resist."

"And by using clones, we also don't have to worry about the 'Northern God King' plotting against us."

"After all, an insignificant clone, even if consumed, wouldn't have much impact on us."

Upon hearing the East God King's words, the eyes of the Meteor City Lord suddenly lit up. Clearly, he also realized this was indeed a win-win solution.

However... with this thought, a new question emerged in his heart.

He couldn't help but look up at the East God King in front of him and asked, "But... Your Excellency. This condition doesn't seem difficult to achieve."

"Why did you guys... not do this before?"

When the Meteor City Lord asked, the East God King calmly replied, "The reason is simple. Time and opportunity."

The East God King said, "All Cataclysmic treasures and special treasures have usage limits."

"Aside from some treasures that can be recharged, most ordinary treasures, as time passes and usage increases, their effects continue to decline."

"Before Doris's father fell, he indeed might have left her some good things. At that time, no one wanted to bet on such a possibility."

"But... as so many years have passed, those treasures probably no longer have the same effect as before. It is hard to say how effective they still are."

"In fact, a hundred years ago, we were no longer too worried about the cards left by Doris's father."

"It's just that... back then, the division of territories had been stable for so long, the structure of the 'core area' was already solid. Who would bother with such a trifling piece of land?"

"Capturing it would offer little benefit. Failing to capture it would only cause trouble."

"Moreover, there wasn't much trust and opportunity for collaboration among us God Kings."

At this point, the East God King's gaze beneath the hood fell on the Meteor City Lord, and then he calmly said, "But now it's different."

"Now, the 'Crimson Territory' shelters Qiu Tu. We have a legitimate reason to join forces."

"Moreover, compared to the conflicts among the 'God Kings', the new Heavenly God is clearly what we most need to focus on."

"We God Kings have had the initial opportunity to establish cooperation."

"All these changes are what make the 'Crimson Territory' no longer a problem."

Upon saying this, he couldn't help but sigh for a moment, "After all... the times have changed."

After listening to the East God King's analysis, the eyes of the Meteor City Lord grew brighter and brighter.

He pondered seriously for a moment, and then once again bowed to the East God King and said, "The Divine King is wise! I am not worthy!"

Upon hearing the Meteor City Lord's flattery, the face hidden in the East God King's hooded cloak showed no expression. Yet, one could clearly feel his pleasure increasing a bit.

Then his tone shifted, and he added, "But... this is the most extreme scenario I described."

He calmly said, "Doris's father was our old comrade-in-arms. His orphan is also considered half a junior to us."

"If we can resolve this matter without bloodshed, we won't make a move against her."

At this point, the East God King said, "So... send a document to the 'Crimson Territory'."
