People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 90 "The Doctor": Will Win

"It's just an old-fashioned 'inferior' machine, but it makes you lose your composure like this."

"."

"How ugly it is, my respected sage."

The crisp sound of long boots stepping on the ground echoed in the empty hall, and a young man wearing a bird-beak mask came up behind Hazard, whose legs were trembling slightly, without any concealment.

Without waiting for the old man to reply, the man continued in a sarcastic tone:

"It seems that too much comfort and vanity have made you forget the 'calmness' and 'grace' that a scholar should have."

"."

When he suddenly heard this "shameful" evaluation, Hazard did not respond with violent anger as he did in the past.

He just took a deep breath and said as calmly as possible:
"Dotore, you can speak frankly."

"Although you are a 'heretic', you are not a 'fool'. You came here on purpose, so you shouldn't just come to laugh at me, right?"

"Oh?"

"I take back what I said before. It seems that your aging mind, although somewhat weak, has not been completely crushed by fear. This is really cause for celebration, really cause for celebration."

The young man clapped his hands exaggeratedly, and his praise seemed sincere.

——With the breakthrough of the ruins colossus, the authority of the Xumi Order Institute has been almost completely lost.

To this day, Dotore has made no secret of his disdain and contempt for these so-called "sages".

"Azar, I come with the goodwill of winter."

After some sarcasm, Dotore finally told the purpose of his visit.

"The Queen heard about the recent troubles of the Order of the Lords, and based on the concept of 'friendly mutual assistance', she showed mercy and ordered us, the Fatui, to help you deal with the 'thing' that is wantonly destroying order."

"Such kindness is rare in the cold country of eternal winter."

"I just don't know, what do you think, sage?"

"."

Dotore's words echoed in the empty hall, and his hoarse voice carried an inexplicable allure into the ears of the great sage.

But this is obviously the only chance to break the deadlock at present. After hearing such "good news", Hazard's face did not show much surprise.

He put down the crumpled battle report in his hand, frowned, and looked at the "Doctor" beside him:
"The Queen of Winter never mentions the word 'mercy'."

"To meet your demands, the price Xumi has to pay may not be less than facing a powerful enemy head-on."

Hazard seemed to be refusing, but Dottore didn't care at all:
"The price that 'Xumeru' has to pay and the price that 'you' have to pay can never be confused."

"Besides, we just need to 'recruit' a group of talented people in this country and set up some 'recruit camps' to expand our manpower. For those who want to join us, isn't this a blessing?"

"."

Hazard did not respond immediately after hearing this, but lowered his head and thought about something. However, after seeing the "shameful" battle report on the table, the struggle that was already there on his wrinkled face completely disappeared.

".The Decree House is not the dictatorship of the Great Sage. I cannot accept the terms of Winter Solstice independently. I can only give a reply as soon as possible after the meeting this afternoon."

"But Xumi has indeed received the Queen's kindness. Please convey my regards to the merciful Queen."

Hazard looked at the "heretic" in front of him whom he once looked down upon, and finally let go of the arrogance in his eyes.

"I didn't expect the wise man to be so open-minded. That's great."

Dotole was also a little surprised at how quickly the so-called "great sage" in front of him compromised, but after knowing that the "recruiting ground" of Dongdong would be expanded again and his "experiment" would be more successful, his attitude improved a lot:

"This is an agreement drafted by a diplomat. I will pass it on to the wise man first."

"Friendly reminder, you'd better give a definite answer before the end of today." "After all, I heard that the "waste" of the ancient country of Kanreya will arrive at Xumi City tomorrow."

"Then, it will be a different price."

Dotore handed over a formal document from behind and gave it to the great sage in front of him, then he was about to turn around and leave.

"and many more"

At this moment, Hazard, who had been quiet since they met, suddenly called him.

"Although this is just a personal confession, do you have anything to explain to the person on this piece of paper?"

Azar took out the portrait of "Doctor" from the table and questioned the Winter Solstice Executive in front of him.

"He's just a clown."

"If it weren't for this incident, do you think I would be interested in dealing with such an old 'antique' personally?"

"I will make anyone who dares to provoke me pay the price!"

Dotore seemed to have thought of something, and his usually calm and arrogant tone showed a rare fluctuation.

"Hmph, give me an answer as soon as possible."

“I’m not as patient as some executives.”

"After all, I can't wait to crush that scum who hides his head and shows his tail."

The "Doctor" left these words and turned away.

In the spacious hall, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of Hazard flipping through the "aid terms".

The House of Wisdom, the Conference Hall.

In such a crisis, it is rare that all six sages are present.

After Hazard, who was in charge, distributed copies of the 'aid terms', he began to ask for the opinions of everyone present.

"What do you think of this 'aid clause'?"

"Although the number of recruits is a bit high, the content of this clause is not too excessive. Considering Zhidong's style of doing things, it can indeed be considered 'merciful'. I agree."

This is a wise man of the Miaolun school.

“The autonomy of the Fatwa Council has not been interfered with. Since the other party is willing to promise not to participate in the internal management of the Fatwa Council, I agree.”

This is a wise man of the Zhilun school.

"The location of the 'Recruit Camp' is in the wilderness, and no one usually goes there. Apart from the ridiculous rumors about the 'Forest Elves', I think there is absolutely no value there. I agree."

This is a wise man of the Sulun school.

"No! I don't agree! This is not recruiting new soldiers, this is clearly kidnapping experimental subjects! You bastards actually want to sign such a thing, are you worthy of Xumi's hundreds of years of history?!"

"I don't agree either! You would rather do business with hungry jackals than seek help from the gods who have been protecting this country for five hundred years in the Jingshan Palace. I am ashamed to be associated with your prejudices and old-fashionedness!"

These are the wise men of the causal and natalist schools.

"."

".Yes, of course you won't agree to this, and I have never expected this."

Azar acted as if he had not heard the two sages' stern objections and continued:
"But this is just temporary forbearance before the light of wisdom arrives. Soon, you two will realize that you are the real pedantic people!"

"Rest quietly for a while. When you see the true God of Wisdom, you will surely repent for your ignorance."

As Azar finished speaking, the four sages who agreed stood up one after another, looking at the two opponents who were isolated on one side with inexplicable expressions. There was an arrogance and extremism in their fanatical eyes that made them tremble.
