Chapter 1071 Cleanup Bureau: We can’t protect ourselves either
Chapter 1071 Cleanup Bureau: We can’t protect ourselves either
This anti-robin alliance...why does it feel like it's about to end?
Looking at the other kings arguing fiercely around the round table, the middle-aged man wearing a purple crystal crown could not help but complain to the woman beside him in silence:
"I thought there really was some good idea, so after receiving the news, I risked the boat falling through the thunderstorm and arrived here a week early. In the end, I didn't do anything and just watched people quarreling!"
"..."
"Look, it's been almost a week now, and we've been fighting here every day. We haven't figured out how to fight the God of Food and the Robin Kingdom, and we're all internally broken. We even got into a fight yesterday because of the argument. There's no way we can accomplish anything!"
"..."
"Huh? Why don't you speak?"
After waiting for a while without seeing any response, the middle-aged man could not help but push the woman next to him. The young woman next to him, with a round face and black eyes, opening and closing her eyes, seemed to be frightened by something. She suddenly screamed and pushed him to the ground in return.
"???"
"Oh, sorry, sorry!"
Realizing that they had overreacted, the other kings in the secret room stopped arguing and looked towards her in surprise. The woman who was awakened quickly adjusted the crooked glass crown on her head and helped the fallen middle-aged man up with some embarrassment.
"Sorry... The sunshine time here is much different from that in our Refraction Kingdom. I haven't slept well these past two days, so I just couldn't help but take a nap... Where were you talking about?"
"No... who are you kidding?"
After being helped up from the ground, the middle-aged man wearing the amethyst crown finally came to his senses, shook her hand away, and said angrily:
"I saw everything just now! Your eyes were clearly open! You..."
"Sorry sorry, I sleep like this."
Looking at the middle-aged man who was obviously hurt from the fall, the Queen of the Refraction Kingdom apologized again:
"I have some feathered blood, so my sleeping pattern is similar to that of an owl. During the day, I sleep with one eye open and one eye closed... Sorry, I didn't mean to do that."
An owl... an owl?
After listening to the sincere explanation of Queen Refraction, the King of Thunderstorm Kingdom calmed down a little. He gritted his teeth and said nothing more. Instead, he called his attendant in from outside the door, helped him sit a little further away, and then slammed the table with anger in his eyes.
"Everyone! We have been here for almost a week. How should we deal with the threats from the God of Food and the Robin Kingdom? It's time for everyone to come up with a plan!"
"Your Majesty Mayne, what you said makes sense!"
After hearing King Thunderstorm's words, the middle-aged lady sitting diagonally opposite him could not help but nod repeatedly and echoed in a gentle voice:
"Let's put aside the past for now. The most important thing right now is how to deal with the threats posed by the God of Food and the Robin Kingdom!"
"What's there to worry about?"
As soon as the middle-aged lady finished speaking, the white-haired old man sitting on the other side of the Thunderstorm King snorted coldly and sneered in his unpleasant voice that sounded like scraping glass:
"The medicine in your Perti Kingdom is so expensive, but it can't cure your brain, right?
No matter how strong and domineering the Robin Kingdom is, it is only one family. But including Queen Seol who has not yet arrived, the kings of six of the twelve kingdoms are already sitting here. We already have six votes in our hands. What kind of waves can he stir up? "
"hehe."
As soon as the white-haired old man finished speaking, the man opposite him, who had big dark circles under his eyes, a emaciated body and a pale face, and who could tell at a glance that he had indulged in excessive sexual activities, could not help but refute him:
"According to your calculation, the population of our Kingdom of Alesund is three times that of your Kingdom of Seacliff, and our votes are also three times as much as yours. So, are you going to obey and change your damn 60% tariff?"
"You wish!" The white-haired old man sneered and retorted:
"Not only can your tariffs not be lowered, they must even continue to rise! In addition, your shipping companies and grain companies in Alesund must also hand over their equity and become joint ventures! If you don't change within the deadline, they will all be nationalized!"
"you dare?!"
"Why shouldn't I dare?"
The white-haired old man sneered:
"When we were suffering from famine before, didn't you take the opportunity to raise the price? Didn't you hoard the food and wait for the price to go up? Didn't you say that even if we didn't buy, there would be plenty of people who wanted it? Then don't sell it now! I don't believe that you are the only one in the world who can grow food!"
"Old man! Don't you know why I do this?"
The king, who looked like he had overindulged himself in sexual activities and had a kidney deficiency, slammed the table hard, then covered his painful hand and bared his teeth as he shouted angrily:
"The final payment has been delayed for three or four years. The grain I sold has turned into dog shit, and you still haven't paid me the final payment! And we agreed to provide subsidies for large quantities of grain, but where is your subsidy? Did you feed it to the dogs along with the grain I sold?"
"You are presumptuous!"
"You're the one who's so presumptuous!"
"Alright! Both of you shut up! If you want to argue, do it in private!"
The King of Thunderstorm Country rubbed his brows with his ears buzzing from the quarrel between the two kings, and said angrily:
“The reason we gather here is not to deal with your trivial matters, but to deal with the Robin Kingdom and the God of Food!
Everyone, after absorbing the essence of the Kingdom of Korok, the current Kingdom of the Robin is no longer what it used to be. The technology of the Kingdom of Korok, their already sound industrial system, plus the commercial channels and minerals of the Kingdom of Morna, and the allegiance of the Kingdom of the North and the Kingdom of the Witch...
The current Robin Kingdom is the strongest among the twelve kingdoms! Population, military power, wealth, resources... they have everything! If the Cleanup Bureau finally stands idly by, they can conquer the entire Western Continent in just eight or nine years!
The prince of the Queen of Mimics is one of the directors of the Cleanup Bureau. If he really persuades the Cleanup Bureau to let those guys go, then let alone tariffs and companies, everyone here will be her prisoner!"
"..."
After listening to the angry speech of the middle-aged man, all the kings finally quieted down. After a while, the Queen of Perti, the Kingdom of Medicine, could not help but speak:
"The Robin Kingdom and the God of Cookery are causing such chaos. The Cleanup Bureau...will not just ignore it, right?"
"If the Cleanup Bureau was in charge, how did the Kingdom of Korok disappear?"
He had been very anxious these past few days, and just now he was thrown down hard. The Thunder King finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he shouted mercilessly:
"Hundreds of royal family members were killed, and it is said that only a teenage princess was left. She was taken to the capital of the robin king and put under protection... Is that protection or house arrest? Don't you understand?"
"..."
"Also, how did the previous king of the Northern Kingdom abdicate? Why did the new Queen of the North take office as soon as the God of Food passed away, and why was her first decree to fully align with the Robin?
The God of Food had only been in the Kingdom of Witches for a week, so why did the previous Great Witch King of the Kingdom of Witches die immediately, and then her daughter immediately sided with the Robin as soon as she took the throne?"
"..."
"There is also the Kingdom of Sikalevin. Although they have not yet clearly sided with the Robin, the old king abdicated on the spot when the God of Food landed, and then the young and strong prince disappeared. The young and beautiful princess quickly succeeded to the throne. Do we still need to guess what will happen next?
You told me that the Cleanup Bureau would take care of it... With so many fatal examples before his eyes, the God of Cookery is now too lazy to even pretend, has his Cleanup Bureau ever taken care of it? Huh?"
