Mike’s words came too suddenly, and Jacob and Chris did not have time to react.
After a moment of silence in the meeting room, Chris remembered the strategy they had previously discussed, no matter what Mike said, he would immediately refute.
That was right, this way, he could overwhelm Mike in terms of momentum.
“I…” Chris was about to speak, but he stopped abruptly after he uttered a note.
Because Mike turned his head to look at him.
There was no emotion in his cold eyes. He just looked at him indifferently.
“Hmm? What do you want to say?” Mike asked.
“I… I agree.” Chris lowered his head.
He suddenly remembered that the first step of this plan had yet to be completed.
That was to have a powerful guard stand by the side so that he could put pressure on the other party.
He looked at Jacob carefully.
Now, he had to let Jacob turn the situation around. If Jacob agreed, then it would really be the end.
At this time, Jacob really hated Chris.
‘If you can’t open your mouth to refute, you should at least shut up.
‘If you agreed so easily, what am I supposed to say?’
However, even though he was filled with hatred, this matter was also related to Jacob himself.
He could only bite the bullet and say,
“Let us discuss this matter.
“Someone, get Cicero and Alves to discuss this matter together.”
Hearing his words, the attendant outside the door immediately left. He really despised staying here any longer.
The atmosphere was too depressing…
Mike was very clear about the king of the Trolls’, but he did not stop him.
Because he felt that it was beneficial to him.
Mike sneered and said,
“I didn’t expect the king of the Trolls and Dwarves to not be able to make a decision alone. You still need to discuss the matter with others. How ridiculous.”
This sarcasm was very direct, without any euphemism.
However, the two kings did not even refute.
Or rather, they did not dare to.
The envoy in front of them was obviously an adventurer, not a native.
One had to know that if he was a native, he might not be able to fight since not every native would train their strength.
However, adventurers were different.
Adventurers had to have the ability to fight. This was something that the whole continent knew.
Under such circumstances, the two kings did not want to anger Mike.
After all, an adventurers’ behavior was unpredictable.
They could not be judged using common sense.
If they really directly attacked without negotiating…
These two kings might really die here.
They could only sit in their seats and nervously wait for the guards to arrive.
Soon, two voices sounded from outside the door.
“King, I’m here.”
Cicero and Alves appeared at the door at the same time and shouted in unison.
The sound of their arrival was like the most beautiful song in the world — at least for Jacob and Chris.
It had only been three minutes.
However, these three minutes felt like three long hours for them.
“Well, come and discuss it with us.”
Out of nowhere, Jacob took out a handkerchief and began to wipe his sweat.
Cicero and Alves immediately looked at each other when they heard this.
Would they be consulted about the negotiation?
Obviously, it was impossible. They were just guards.
