Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1505 1345: Undercurrents

But the situation took a turn thereafter.

The Kingsley's Parliament was still unwilling to forgive the Dali Kingdom. They definitely wouldn't allow the Dali Kingdom to communicate with the Prime minister. As a result, Kingsley's Parliament once again requested for the Dali Kingdom to apologize and compensate them for their losses.

But this time, Kingsley's Parliament wasn't only speaking. They had mobilized several of their troops to the rumored border region where their guards were ambushed and announced to the public that this was the military exercise of the new year. However, everyone knew what they were up to.

Alex understood from the intelligence that war was inevitable.

The Kingsley's Parliament mobilizing their troops to the border had captured the attention of the entire continent.

However, the people refused to believe that the Kingsley's Kingdom and Dali Kingdom would go into war. After all, they knew that such clashes had always existed and were well aware that the Kingsley's Parliament would be so unyielding. Therefore, the Kingsley's Parliament mobilizing their troops was only making a tough stand. Sometimes, international politics were like two people pointing at each other's nose and taunting: "Hit me if you dare!", "Touch me and I will kill you!", or "Come on, I'm not afraid of you!"…

Even though both sides cursed while spitting saliva across, neither would do anything even if the situation escalated.

It was why, everyone was only concerned about the clash between them at a general level. They believed that the Kingsley's Parliament was only expressing their tough stance to regain support from the people and wouldn't send out their troops to attack the Dali Kingdom.

Indeed. That was their intention. But the Dali Kingdom might have other ideas!

Alex could see that instead of believing that the Dali Kingdom wouldn't start a war, the people were 'wishing' that the Dali Kingdom wouldn't. No matter what, the Kingsley's Kingdom and the Dali Kingdom were the largest nations on this continent. The instant a war broke out between them, the consequences would be devastating. Besides, as both countries were powerful, it wouldn't be as simple as a large country devouring a smaller country or a short-lived war between two weak countries. Speaking in exaggeration, this war might last for years, decades, or even centuries—and this wasn't a groundless fear.

Come to think of it, back then, many races went extinct in that devastating Calamity War that fought for centuries. Moreover, some races also split up like the Elves and Dark Elves, and dwarves, dragons (A/N:What was left out of them) and demi-humans. This time, no one knew if this war between both nations would become another Calamity War.

Everyone's concern was not just out of fear of this imaginary war. They believed that as soon as the Dali Kingdom went all out, there would be disastrous consequences and perhaps this Kingdom might develop some misunderstandings or ill intentions toward them.

Alex snorted disdainfully. But he had to admit that these sayings weren't all dependent on weakness.

Other countries had a huge weakness against the Dali Kingdom and that was that they couldn't receive any information regarding the higher-ups of the kingdom. The reason was simple. The higher-ups of the Dali Kingdom of were mainly Dragons,Necromancers, Vampires, Death Knights, Dark Elves, Fallen dwarves, demi-humans, and others who were capable of reading and manipulating minds. Vampires could extract information from the blood of their preys. The Necromancer could exploit every intelligence from the brains of the dead. Dark Elves had a unique spell to judge if the other party was lying. In this dark country, they would use these skills almost without any moral restrictions and no one would despise them for it. The Dali Kingdom was a formidable nation and as long as one was capable, one would be right no matter what one did. Even if one wasn't strong enough, one could still be made use of as long as one was loyal. But those who weren't strong and were always daydreaming would become the prey of others.

It was due to this that it was harder for people to gather intelligence in such a country than climb to heaven. Even if they could get their hands on thought-provoking artifacts or had immunity against mind-reading spells, they would still be captured by the Undead Creatures and locked up for research as soon as they were discovered. When that happened, not only would they not attain any intelligence, but they would also reveal absolute classified information after the Undead Creatures extracted them from the blood and brain.

Because of this that there were basically no countries on the Mainland that dared to send spies into the Dali Kingdom. The best that they could do was to send Humans to mix with the underclass. But there was limited information in those places and it wouldn't be effective. On the other hand, many nobles and high officials in the Mainland were willing to betray their souls and intelligence to the Undead Creatures in exchange for false, eternal lives.

Unable to receive accurate intelligence meant that one couldn't have accurate judgment of their enemies. Therefore, many people judged the Dali Kingdom based on what they had done. But everyone knew that this sort of evaluation wasn't reliable.

Alex shook his head after reading the regent's report. The Dali Kingdom feel like a country Bahamut and his lackey would love, maybe they created it from the shadow.

The Black Prince felt all of this was liking playing in historical dramas and he could learn from this, learn from their mistakes while playing Bahamut's clone game.
