"Your Majesty, in the Empire Era, the most powerful were always the indigenous dynasties.
"Now we have dynasties, and in the future there will be empires and imperial empires and perhaps even more powerful existences.
"If we can work together, we can go further and make the journey easier for both of us."
Christine looked at Jerry, who was sitting high on the throne, and said so.
Jerry smiled slightly.
He picked up a glass of wine beside him, shook it in his hand, and said playfully, "Are they very powerful?
"Then why are they crushed by my Sky Dynasty?
"And, working with you?"
Jerry looked at Christine, sizing her up from head to toe.
Maybe he was studying her figure or her clothes.
All in all, it made Christine feel uncomfortable.
"It's not that I look down on you, but you really don't deserve to work with the Sky Dynasty."
Jerry's words contained a hint of contempt.
Not just against Christine, but against the rest of the world.
The current Jerry had the right to say that.
"Your Great Cloud Dynasty is just a small dynasty with 20 plus cities.
"The number of troops is less than fifty thousand. With such a small dynasty, my army only needs one charge to wipe it out."
Hearing Jerry's words, Christine's face turned pale.
She opened her mouth but could not say anything.
Jerry's words were the truth.
This was not the real world, this was the Empire Era.
The military strength in the real world did not represent the military strength in the Empire Era.
Jerry did not think that the countries in the real world could help him or work with him.
Hearing Jerry's words, Christine had nothing to refute, because Jerry was right.
With hundreds of thousands of troops, he not only had powerful military strength, he also had a powerful empire to provide him with endless resources.
His kingdom's grain output had bumper harvest every year as if he was blessed by gods.
Commerce was also extremely developed, and he could buy any special products from the other three dynasties.
He could even buy the products from the other side of Qingzhou.
The Sky Dynasty seemed to have extremely shrewd business talents that developed commerce for the kingdom.
A strong army, prosperous commerce, and fertile land. With these three perfect conditions, Jerry was about to establish his own empire.
He really did not need to work with the U.S.
Food?
The Sky Dynasty even sold their own food during winter.
What about the products?
The Sky Dynasty's caravans were all over the Qingzhou. People fought to do business with them because the Sky Dynasty's caravans were protected by a powerful army and they did business fairly, and everyone could benefit from the trades.
Who would have thought that the barren land of Northern Liang could give birth to such a powerful dynasty?
"Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave now, " Jerry said. It was impossible for him to show mercy, because it was completely unnecessary.
Wherever his sword pointed would become his territory, and everything on it would become his possession.
Although the United States was backing Christine, this could not change Jerry's mind.
This was a battlefield, a real war.
Only the victor would be eternal.
Jerry's goal was to unify the Empire Era, to reach the peak of the world and to establish the most powerful empire.
Therefore, everyone against him was his enemy. If they didn't submit, they'd be destroyed!
"Right now, you only have one choice, and that is to submit to me!
"From now on, the Great Cloud Dynasty will become my subordinate kingdom. Otherwise, the kingdom will be destroyed!"
Jerry said in a deep voice, and a powerful aura instantly crushed Christine.
When Christine heard this, her expression immediately changed.
Submit?
There was a saying in the Empire Era that when a kingdom was destroyed, there was only one way for the former ruler to stay in the Empire Era.
And that was to submit!
Submit to the other powers in the Empire Era and become a vassal force!
It would be fine if you submitted to a lander who was also from Earth, but in the future, you would rely on him, and you would also be able to return to the real world.
However, everything about you would be controlled by him. He could decide if you could log in the Empire Era.
Other than your life and death in reality, everything about you in the Empire Era would be controlled.
The other option was a little more terrifying.
That was to submit to the indigenous forces in the Empire Era and become their subordinate.
The consequences were very serious. If you chose to submit, you would become a vegetative in reality!
Then, you would stay in the Empire Era forever!
Over the years, many people chose to submit and stay in the Empire Era for various reasons.
And their bodies in the real world would become vegetative!
"Is, is there really no room for negotiation?"
Christine gritted her teeth and asked.
Her dynasty was in Qingzhou, so it was impossible for her to escape.
Once the kingdom was gone, she would be forced to exit from the Empire Era.
Although she was currently at the late stage of level one, and in the real world she was like a superwoman.
But she knew that Jerry was about to establish an empire, and when that time came, her kingdom would definitely be finished.
Then the world would be upgraded to level two. If she was forced to withdraw from the Empire Era, she would definitely lag behind others forever.
This was something that the self-reliant Christine was unwilling to accept.
Jerry's attitude was still cold.
Christine was very beautiful, but in the Empire era, one could create her own face.
God knows what she looked like in reality.
What Jerry didn't know was that Christine didn't change her face. Her appearance was the same as in reality.
Her background in the real world was extremely powerful, so she didn't need a false identity. In any case, no one dared to mess with her in reality.
"Let me go back and think about it," Christine gritted her teeth and said. Then, she disappeared instantly. She had directly logged out.
There was a hidden benefit of the Empire Era, which was that one could choose to log out any time. It was a life-saving skill.
After all, if one was killed in the Empire Era, one would be kicked out of the Empire Era and could never enter again.
When one encountered danger, one only needed to log out.
Looking at Christine's disappearing figure, Jerry didn't care at all.
Although the U.S. might start to investigate him, Jerry believed that when he established an empire, his strength would soar to an unimaginable height.
At that time, even if a powerful country in reality wanted to attack him, they would have to think again about it.
