"Prince Abbas?"
Colin frowned suspiciously, obviously not familiar with the troll prince.
"Yes." Prince Okamoto saw Colin's doubts and immediately explained, "He is the Eastern Prince of the Troll Empire and a member of the Volkin family, and is eligible to inherit the throne.
Moreover, among the four princes of the empire, I am out of the game. The northern prince Otto is dedicated to pursuing the way of warriors. He has long clearly stated that he is not interested in the throne. Therefore, in terms of ability and qualifications, Prince Abbas is the most promising. Become the candidate for the next troll emperor. "
Colin rubbed his chin, no joy or anger on his face.
He keenly noticed that Okamoto only mentioned three princes just now, but left out Prince Merluvi alone.
The Prince Merluvi followed Modo II out of the city and tried to assassinate Colin. Fortunately, Colin was surrounded by Charles as a shield and a group of troll prisoners who had been transformed into blood slaves, and then escaped the assassination.
However, the Prince Merluvi was indeed sturdy. Nearly a hundred troll captives were almost killed by him. You know, these captives are all professionals picked out by Colin from an army of 100,000. So, if the black cavalry hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid it would not be enough for Prince Merluvi to kill.
It is a pity that this sturdy prince has now been shot into a hedgehog. Just now Colin heard the report and said that the vitality of the fifth-order warrior is really tenacious.
But obviously, Okamoto hopes that Colin can help him eliminate this candidate.
Colin did not make a clear statement about this, but asked: "Then why do you say that Prince Abbas will be a more satisfying successor to the throne?"
"Because he is a staunch ‘peace talk faction’ who advocates friendly relations with the North for mutual benefit, instead of engaging in military confrontation as it is now."
Seeing that Colin seemed a little unbelievable, Prince Okamoto added again: "Viscount Lord, this Prince Abbas has three lovers in total, all of whom are humans, and he has given birth to a bunch of half-troll illegitimate children.
But he has nothing to do with his troll queen, and the relationship is extremely cold. "
Colin laughed in his heart when he heard that Prince Abbas turned out to be a "human control". So, after he came to power, he would indeed improve the relationship between the Troll Empire and the Northern Territory.
"Then how can I ensure that Prince Abbas succeeds in ascending the throne?"
Prince Okamoto's eyes flickered, and he said gloomily: "Viscount-sir, now Prince Abbas is the most likely candidate for the throne in the city."
"Really?" Colin heard Prince Okamoto's implication.
The so-called "candidates in the royal city who are most likely to ascend to the throne" means that outside the royal city, there are more suitable candidates than Prince Abbas.
Obviously, the more suitable candidate for the throne is the Prince Merluvi who has been deliberately ignored by Prince Okamoto.
It seems that among the high-level trolls, the forces that are hostile to the North are still stronger than the forces that are close to the North.
"Well, I will guarantee that there will be no more suitable candidates for the throne in the royal city."
"Thank you, Master Viscount!" Prince Okamoto saluted again, and then said, "Master Viscount, I'm out of the city to see you this time, and I have the mission of negotiating peace."
"Agreement? Okay, I wanted to negotiate a peace a long time ago, but Modo II did not agree to the terms of the negotiation. Otherwise, the matter would not have developed to this point."
"I wonder what conditions do you have?"
Colin then reiterated the terms of agreement he had previously said with Modo II.
Prince Okamoto's mouth twitched when he heard it, and he secretly said-No wonder Modo II insists on killing you, such a negotiation condition, there is no sincerity at all.
"Master Viscount, if I go back with this agreement, I'm afraid I will be torn apart by the angry troll nobles."
Colin smiled and realized that his previous conditions were indeed too harsh.
However, that condition was originally intended to stimulate Modo II, so that the other party would act first to throw the troll's notoriety of destroying the talks on the troll. Colin also knew that such a condition would be impossible for the other party to agree to.
"Well, then tell me, what kind of negotiation terms are you willing to accept."
Next, the two had a fierce bargaining, and finally reached an agreement with difficulty.
There are four main contents of the revised peace negotiation agreement:
First, the Troll Empire promised to maintain the current organization of 50,000 regular troops and no longer continue to expand its army;
Second, compensation for the war losses of the Anglia family of 5 million gold coins;
Third, send 100,000 young and strong troll slaves to the Anglia family, and deliver them in five years;
Fourth, all caravans carrying customs clearance documents issued by Ice Rock City will enjoy preferential tariff reduction policies in the Troll Empire.
Of course, in exchange, Colin will return Modo II's body and lead the black cavalry to withdraw from the troll empire.
Such a peace agreement is undoubtedly a huge humiliation for the troll empire.
But at this time, they have no choice.
Although the Black Cavalry cannot attack the Troll King City, if such an army of cavalry rages in the territory of the Troll Empire, it will bring unbearable losses to the troll.
However, when Prince Okamoto brought such a peace agreement back to Troll King City, it still aroused the anger of the troll nobles.
In the assembly hall, the troll aristocrats quarreled together, cursing Colin's greed, and at the same time criticizing Okamoto's weakness.
In the face of the accusation, Prince Okamoto said with a blank face: "Everyone, if you know how outrageous the terms of the peace talks Colin proposed to His Majesty Modo II at first, you will understand that I can talk about the current agreement. Have done their best."
Having said that, he also recounted the original peace agreement.
At this moment, the accusation voice suddenly became much smaller.
Afterwards, Prince Okamoto bowed to Prince Abbas and said: "Uncle Abbas, you are now the most respected person in the city. I wonder if you have any comments on this agreement?"
Prince Abbas was satisfied with Okamoto's respectful attitude, but still shook his head slightly:
"Okamoto, I know you have tried your best, but such conditions are a shame to the troll empire, especially the first condition to restrict army expansion. If you agree to it, wouldn't the empire lose hope of rising forever? "
"Uncle I really can't get Viscount Angele to make more concessions. However, if you go to talk to him, there may be hope."
"Oh why?"
"Because Viscount Angele thinks you are the most promising candidate to inherit the throne. If you go to talk to him personally, maybe he will sell you a bit of face."
When Prince Abbas heard the words, he felt a little airy, and it was a kind of glory to be able to gain the recognition of the enemy.
But he didn't dare to meet Colin in person, what if he was killed by the other party, Prince Abbas felt that he was just one step away from the troll throne, and he didn't want to take risks at this critical moment.
"Ahem, let's go, I will send an envoy to meet Viscount Anglia on my behalf, and win a decent peace agreement for the troll empire."
When the troll nobles heard the words, they immediately heard the voice of praise.
Prince Abbas received the praise with a blushing face, as if he had ascended to the throne.
