The Schemes of the Nandu Kingdom (Bonus Chapter for Reaching 600 Accumulated Monthly Votes)
"Enough, stop fooling around. Let's talk business."
Watching the brother and sister about to start bickering again in the blink of an eye, Zhou Xu called out with a smile to stop them. The whole situation didn't seem particularly urgent.
And in truth, that was the case. Based on the brief report conveyed through the radio equipment earlier, he hadn't taken the Nandu Kingdom very seriously.
Although the exact strength of the Orc Alliance remained uncertain, after briefly interacting with individual orc tribes and gathering intelligence, they had little trouble deducing the general situation.
If they really went to war with the Orc Alliance, Great Zhou still had the confidence to deal with it.
The reason they had never made a move was, plainly speaking, that they didn't want to go to all that trouble. They felt that the war wasn't worth fighting. With that free time, they might as well focus on developing properly.
By contrast, that Nandu Kingdom had only been dealing with part of the orc population, yet had been forced to go out to sea and seek aid.
From this, it was not difficult to see that even if the other side possessed some strength, it was extremely limited.
At that moment, upon hearing Zhou Xu's words, Xigluen quickly recounted everything that had happened.
Of course, that included the fact that she had fired a shot toward the other side.
"Did I... accidentally cause trouble?"
Xigluen suddenly felt a little guilty.
Zhou Xu merely waved his hand with a smile, then turned his gaze toward his son, Zhou Ye.
"Ye'er, what do you think? Tell me your thoughts."
Faced with this situation, Zhou Ye already had a few guesses in mind. He knew his father was testing him, so he immediately laid out all his thoughts.
