Meteor Fall Master in the 'Starry Abyss'-Chapter 1362 - 283: Void Route: Toward the [White Wolf] Ending (8)_11
Leoz doesn't suffer losses, [Twilight Duke] doesn't suffer losses.
The only one suffering losses is Zhou Yuan.
Just twenty years of war, to be honest, is considered short in Starry Abyss.
But these twenty years, the Void Plan Committee thinks the damage caused to Zhou Yuan is already not less than when thirteen senators gathered at Zhou Yuan.
Leoz understands this point too, and in recent months, he has reduced challenge rewards and sponsorship of civilian events, intentionally letting the Void off lightly, but [Twilight Duke] clearly hasn't made up their mind yet.
Finally, today, Leoz proactively proposed negotiations, and Ira half-heartedly expressed a willingness to cooperate.
Leoz and [Twilight Duke] thus withdrew from the battlefield and entered the Sutra Chanting Institute's hall, where they, along with representatives, began a new round of combat.
Fighting outside, negotiating inside.
Leoz's demands are very simple: the Void must join the Primordial Abyss Federation, allowing Zhou Yuan to retain its military forces, even taxes can be negotiated, and will not change the narrative and political structure of the Void, but the Void must dispatch an expeditionary army to follow the Primordial Abyss Federation to Primordial Abyss to overthrow the Lai Anding regime.
[Twilight Duke] is quite satisfied with this, because it essentially acknowledges the Void's autonomy without interfering with their nihilistic beliefs.
But the old men of the Sutra Chanting Institute were furious, shouting that if Leoz demands the Void to merge into the Federation, they would rather acknowledge the Lai Anding regime and send tributes to Lai Anding rather than give Leoz a single penny.
The attendant Elevent was quick-witted, immediately catching the loophole: you're saying that, it seems the Void side hasn't acknowledged the Lai Anding Group as the legitimate regime of Primordial Abyss?
Since you don't recognize the Lai Anding regime, then the legitimate regime of Primordial Abyss can only be our Federation, and our Federation is recognized by the three major narratives of Layer Abyss, there's diplomatic documentation here, do you not recognize it?
The three major narratives of Layer Abyss haven't visited Primordial Abyss, so they don't have diplomatic relations, in this situation, isn't it not recognizing the Primordial Abyss regime.
What he says is indeed correct.
Because the three major narratives of Layer Abyss believe the Primordial Abyss Federation merely wants to overthrow Lai Anding, thinking the Federation is just a country established by the Primordial God Clan. But they have never thought the Federation's goal is to unify the Six Great Abysses.
But here, separated from the three major narratives by a Border Abyss, the Void wants to send people over to inquire but suddenly realizes they haven't signed a ceasefire agreement with Border Abyss.
Just climbing to Border Abyss, the Union's ambassador saw them and directly drove them back.
And Leoz's proclamation before the war hadn't even been shown to the Void, so much so that only [Twilight Duke] on the Void side knew what Leoz's purpose was for liberating Zhou Yuan.
With Elevent pulling this stunt, no one on the Void side knows what the Primordial Abyss Federation is. They assume that the Primordial Abyss Federation has already been recognized by the three major narratives, and even assume the three major narratives and the Union have joined the new Starry Abyss System, and the unification of the upper three layers of Starry Abyss is inevitable.
The obstruction of communication and exchange, coupled with the stalemate on the front lines, the increasingly dangerous situation in Zhou Yuan, along with Elevent's pressure deceiving the upper two layers of narratives, ultimately led the stubborn faction of the Void to choose compromise.
But on the last issue, they still experienced severe disagreements.
"Zhou Yuan must independently join the Primordial Abyss Federation in a narrative form," the philosopher from the Sutra Chanting Institute said seriously.
"No, it must become a Void Province of the Federation, this is a constitutional issue, the Federation has no allies, only provinces or dominions." Elevent directly rejected the demand: "The highly centralized nature of the Federal Government is our core need, if you independently narrate, then how is it different from the previous Starry Abyss."
"Your leaders aren't even Chief Gods, what makes them higher in status than our [Twilight Duke] Lord?"
"Then we take a step back, allowing you to be dominions, the leader of the dominion is also a leader, would that work?"
"Independent narrative, and [Twilight Duke] Lord must assume the position of Prime Minister, or there's no deal!"
"The Prime Minister can only be appointed by the leader, if you don't respect our constitution, then we can only continue fighting."
"Fine, then fight! Do you really think the commune people fear you porcelain-skinned guys?"
"Enough!"
[Twilight Duke] said impatiently: 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
"This arguing won't lead to any results—29 attendees, neither I nor Leoz are allowed to vote, you vote and decide."
"No." Leoz knocked on the table: "Province or dominion, you can only choose one. I can allow Void autonomy, but independent narrative is absolutely impossible, if you are allowed this kind of narrative, then the Void will only keep waging wars on other narratives. In that case, what is the point of establishing the Federation? We are meant to unite and resist the Earthlings and the Lai Anding Group."
"That's your problem, usurpation." A Void Overlord remarked disdainfully: "Do you start pretending to be noble now? Haven't you killed as many of our compatriots as the Earthlings?"
True Martial Partisans weren't satisfied:
"What kind of attitude is that? To comment on the leader, you need to go through the process—"
"He's not our leader yet." Another senior Void official said sarcastically: "Don't forget, it was you who actively sought us for peace talks, if it weren't for our universe, are we afraid of your few people? It's you in Primordial Abyss who need us Void, not us Void who need you, get it straight, porcelain-skinned guy."
"If you're going to speak like that, words can't be spoken like that." Night Fighting Sword said, biting a pipe: "Then we will withdraw from the Melting Void Realm and attack your city."
