Chapter 3342: the reason

Although Master Dewey's tone was stern, he could not hear the slightest warning.
On the contrary, there is such a hint of pleading.
I guess that the seemingly warning words are actually hidden mystery. They are only in the call crystal and outsiders are present, so they are not suitable for direct inquiry.
I said ‘um’, and agreed: "Foster father, please rest assured, even if your majesty orders me to go to the battlefield, I will resign without hesitation."
"Well, that's it" Master Dewey finished speaking and hung up the call.
Just when I put away the call crystal, the call crystal of the adventurer base rang again. After the staff connected, they looked at me strangely and said, "My elder, I'm looking for you."
"Still looking for me?"
"Yes, I was looking for you."
I took the crystal and just put it to my ear, I heard a familiar old voice: "Is it Xiaoyi?"
For a moment, my brows frowned. After a long time, I slowly let go, exhaled, and said, "It's me, the old duke, oh no, it's the Lord Regent now."
"Don't laugh at the old man anymore." The old duke let out a dry laugh.
Not in the mood to continue teasing me with him, I went straight to the point, and said: "You are looking for me this time, why do you do anything?"
"I hope you can agree to a request."
"Don't dare to be" I sneered: "You should just tell me what I need to do. If I can do it, I may do it. If I can't, I will definitely not agree."
"Hey, Xiao Yi," the old duke's old voice slowly said: "You are too prejudiced with me, listen to me..."
"Let's get to the point, Lord Regent, may I ask, what do you need me to do?"
With another sigh, the old duke said: "I hope you don't participate in this national war."
"Oh?" With a weird tone, I laughed and said: "Are you afraid that I will be against you?"
"...In short, just don't participate in this national war."
"Humph, I agreed."
"Hey, you boy, I said this, but it was all for...you, did you agree?"
The old duke did not dare to say anything.
"Yes, I promised" I said every word: "This national war, I, no, participate."
"Okay, okay, that's okay" the old duke said three times in succession, and then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't vomit, he sighed again, and hung up the call.
Just when I felt disdain for the old duke, Crystal made a sound again, and someone called again.
This time, it turned out to be Carter Horton!
"Looking for me?" I heard Carter Horton's voice, and I laughed and said first.
"Huh? You are...An Xiaoyi...Elder?"
"Hmm, you guessed it right" I smiled: "But no prize."
"Let's talk, what can I do?"
There was a little silence, I asked.
"Since you know that I'm here to look for you, presumably several other city masters have also looked for you?"
Carter Horton did not answer, but asked rhetorically.
"As you said" I said: "They have all looked for me, you are the last."
"I have the same purpose as theirs," Carter Horton said: "Now you know what I was looking for you."
"Oh~" I smiled: "In other words, your purpose of looking for me is to let me send troops to interfere in the national war?"
Carter Horton smiled suddenly and said: "It seems that our elders like to pretend to be confused."
"Hehehe" I sneered three times, and then asked, "Then Lord City Lord, if I can agree to your request, should you tell me something in return?"
"What do you want?" Carter Horton asked without hesitation.
"Reason" I said: "The reason why I didn't let me participate in the national war."
"Also, I want to hear the real, accurate reason, not just a perfunctory statement."
"Do you want to know the reason?" Carter Horton pondered for a few seconds, and said, "Why don't you ask your foster father?"
"Do you think my foster father will tell me?"
"Hmph, haha, hahaha, it seems that you really know your foster father" Carter Horton laughed: "But you don't know everything. If you ask Master Dewey, he will definitely not tell you, but you I feel that if I tell you the truth, will Master Dewey let me go?"
"Why, as the king of a country, would you still be afraid of another king of a country?"
I sneered and exclaimed.
"Save the province, the radical method is useless to me" Carter Horton snorted: "And I am not afraid that you laughed. I do fear Master Dewey, and not only me, you can ask other monarchs, who is not afraid Master Dewey?"
"It's an exaggeration" I said: "Even if the foster father knows a lot of technology, it is impossible for the monarchs of all countries to fear him?"
"If you don't understand, I won't tell you so much. I really want to know the reason and ask your foster father to go. As for the national war, I suggest you better not mix up."
After all, hung up the call.
Doesn't this guy even say "goodbye"?
It's rude!
I am angry.
Immediately, handed the call crystal back to the staff, and slowly left the adventurer base.
When he got home, Father Taylor was sitting on the sofa drinking.
"Old man" I said, "I want to ask you something."
"Hiccup, say."
"Do you know the national war?"
"Know" Taylor said.
"You must know about the recent national war, right?"
"Yeah" Tyler nodded.
"Do you know why, the monarchs of the five major countries will not let me mix it up?"
"Um... there are many reasons."
Father Taylor took a sip of wine and said, "What do you think is the matter?"
"If I know, I won't come to ask you."
"Hehe" Old Father Taylor laughed twice, then raised his hand and pointed to the second floor: "Bring me a bottle of monkey wine."
"Hey" I took the monkey wine down diligently and handed it to the old man.
The latter nodded with satisfaction, and said, "There are many reasons why they will not let you participate in the national war. If I am not mistaken, the main reason is that they do not want the Hefeng Continent to split into a new pattern. ."
"The pattern?" I wondered.
"Yes, in other words, the Hefeng Continent doesn't need a sixth country" Tyler said slowly, snorting.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but frowned and said, "Why can't there be a sixth country?"
"Because of these five countries, a tacit agreement has been reached." The old man stretched out a finger and drew on the coffee table: "Dasai City corresponds to York, Seoul and Eretown, and Moonlight City and Fort Witch are relatively independent. If there is one more No matter how powerful the country is, this situation will be broken, and the power pattern of the entire continent will be reshuffled."
