Chapter 374

Standing on the same side as the Fourth True Ancestor, Aldegia needs to pay a great price.

Regarding this matter, La Folia had actually been mentally prepared from the beginning.

But she really didn't expect Lin Que's appetite to be so big, targeting all of Aldegia's magic-guided technology right from the start.

That is the foundation of Aldegia's nation, the root of its ability to stalemate with the War King's Domain for a long time.

Even if La Folia's mentality was good, her mind couldn't help but trance for a moment after hearing this request, and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.

"Your Majesty the Fourth True Ancestor, this request... isn't it a bit too harsh?"

"Is it?"

Lin Que looked at her puzzled: "Just taking some magic-guided technology, what's harsh about that."

"If I have to say, you taking the initiative to hand it over in exchange for my protection is better than me taking the initiative to snatch it away."

The former can at least get actual returns, while the latter would leave them with nothing.

"And didn't you just say that if I have any requests, just ask and you will satisfy them all."

"What? Could it be that you can't stand it at the very first condition and are preparing to refuse?"

"How could that be."

La Folia had already regained her composure, her hands folded on her fair thighs, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

"Since I have said it, I will naturally try my best to satisfy Your Majesty the Fourth True Ancestor's request."

"However, if such news were to spread back to the country, it might cause an uproar."

"Forgive my rudeness, in order to successfully convince the citizens and ministers, could you please give me a token, Your Majesty the Fourth True Ancestor?"

La Folia kicked the ball back.

A token that can conquer all the people of a country is not something that can be easily produced just by being strong.

If Lin Que could really produce such a thing, then she would naturally not refuse Lin Que's request again.

If Lin Que couldn't produce it, then she could use this to delay time and negotiate with Lin Que slowly.

"You really like to play little tricks."

Seeing through La Folia's thoughts, Lin Que shook his head somewhat helplessly.

"I can only say that your Aldegia is quite lucky."

"If someone else had said this to me, your country might already be gone."

"...... Sorry, Your Majesty the Fourth True Ancestor, can you give me a little more time?"

La Folia spoke again after a few seconds of silence: "Although I have obtained the decision-making power, such a major event that decides the country is ultimately not something I can decide alone."

"I need to communicate with the country again before I can give you a satisfactory answer."

"I don't have that patience."

Lin Que raised his palm and gestured: "I'll give you five seconds, make a decision immediately."

"Whether you agree to my request or refuse it, say it after you've thought it through."

"But......"

"Countdown starts."

Lin Que's fingers began to close: "5, 4, 3......"

A calm yet oppressive voice rang out slowly, and La Folia's brain went blank for a moment.

But in the next second, she immediately came back to her senses, and her brain began to frantically think about the feasibility of this matter.

The first point that can be confirmed is that Lin Que's tone doesn't sound like he's lying; he is serious.

If a decision isn't made within five seconds, he will really abandon Aldegia and invade it afterward.

And judging from his previous performance of being able to subdue True Ancestor-level familiars with just his aura, he definitely has the ability to destroy Aldegia.

Besides that, Lin Que was able to bring their entire diplomatic group and eleven Flame-Light Night Earls to the Neon mainland in the blink of an eye; his mobility is evident.

Although it is not yet certain who is stronger between Lin Que and the three True Ancestors, judging from Lin Que's strength and personality, his danger is definitely above the three True Ancestors.

If his request is refused and he feels unhappy, Aldegia's high-level officials will likely be slaughtered by him.

"...... I agree!"

Sweat dripped from La Folia's forehead, wetting her exquisite face.

Seeming to have made a difficult choice, La Folia took a deep breath and continued.

"I will convince the country and let them agree to your request."

"This response is not bad."

Lin Que lowered his palm and nodded with satisfaction: "Maintain this attitude; I like it very much."

A wry smile appeared on La Folia's face: "I will try my best."

"Alright, let's continue the previous topic."

Lin Que said: "Magic-guided technology is just one of my goals; I heard that your Aldegia is also called the Land of Valkyries, right?"

"Yes."

Unlike magic-guided technology, this topic was within La Folia's expectations, so she answered quickly.

"Our royal women have been top-tier spirit mediums for generations, and with a little training, they can obtain powerful combat strength."

"If Your Majesty the Fourth True Ancestor is interested, I can represent Aldegia and marry into your family......"

"Forget about marriage; I have no interest in getting married."

Lin Que waved his hand: "However, I am indeed interested in your royal women; I've already reserved you and that aunt of yours."

"Aunt?"

La Folia's expression became complicated: "My aunts who possess royal blood seem to have all married."

Could it be that this Fourth True Ancestor has some hobbies that are different from ordinary people?

If that's the case, then it's going to be troublesome.

"Stop, did you misunderstand?"

Seeming to have heard La Folia's inner voice, a playful smile appeared on Lin Que's face.

"Although I don't have any taboos in this regard, I was talking about the aunt born after your grandfather cheated."

"Calculating the age, you two seem to be only two or three years apart; in a few years when she grows up, it will be just right to take her in together."

La Folia: "???"

These few simple sentences had an even greater impact on La Folia than facing Lin Que's coercion just now.

Her brain went blank for a full few seconds before La Folia initially reacted.

"Grandfather... cheated?"

"Yes, do you want to go see her?"

Lin Que gestured toward the direction of Itogami Island: "Speaking of which, it's a coincidence; she seems to have been attacked over there."

"If we go now, we should be able to save her on the way."
