Chapter 1364 The Two Requests

"If you agree to cooperate with us this time, not only can we solve the current situation, but your empire
can also get rid of its passive situation," Rocky purposely said.

"Really? How sure are you?" The queen's eyes lit up when she heard this. If that were the case, it
would be advantageous to their empire.

However, Felicia was much more cautious because she felt that Rocky was hiding something. She saw
the worried expression on Erica's face, and grew more suspicious. So, she said, "Tell us first what we
need to do before we decide, Prince Crimson."

"Well, I was hoping that your empire can give up on your own defense and invest all your forces in the
United Army," Rocky bluntly proposed.

Both the queen and Felicia were stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect that Rocky would
make such a preposterous request and call it cooperation. He asked the Magic Phoenix Empire to give
up their own defense and put all their troops in the United Army. This was no different from destroying
their country.

"Is this a joke, Prince Crimson? Tell me you're not serious about this. You seriously want us to give up
our own territory? What got into your head that we would agree to this? How can that be even
possible?" Felicia turned a little angry, thinking that Rocky was just messing around with them.
Although Rocky had greatly helped the Magic Phoenix Empire, it was still hard for her to accept such
an absurd idea.

The queen also nodded in agreement with Felicia. It was hard for her to accept Rocky's request.

"I'm not kidding at all. There is nothing impossible. For the sake of everyone, the Magic Phoenix
Empire must give up its own territory. We need to think about the overall situation," Rocky firmly said.



"As the queen, I can't accept such a request, Prince Crimson. I guess you already know that if we give
up on the defense, we will be immediately occupied. Our innocent people will be involved in the war.
How can I abandon my own people?" the queen seriously said.

"Won't the Magic Phoenix Empire be occupied sooner or later if you continue to just protect
yourselves? Won't your people get involved in the war one way or the other?" Rocky sharply retorted.

The queen and Felicia were rendered speechless. They both clearly knew that the Magic Phoenix
Empire would perish sooner or later if their current situation went on. However, they couldn't just give
up their country and their people like this.

"As the saying goes, if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. The Magic Phoenix Empire is now in
danger without the support of the powerful Phoenix Master Clan. If it weren't for the United Army,
Alston would have already ruled the human kingdoms in the Wild Spirit Land. The Magic Phoenix
Empire would have been doomed. You should feel lucky that the Magic Phoenix Empire has survived
until now. If you still want to be selfish and put your own interest in the first place, it will only bring more
misfortunes to your people," Rocky seriously said with his cold eyes. Of course, he was not joking. He
could easily withdraw the West United Army from the Magic Phoenix Empire. If he ordered this, the
empire would immediately become the target of the enemies.

"Even so, I will not give up my country." The queen seemed to have already made up her mind not to
be the sinful traitor of her empire.

"Well I guess I have to do it on my own. Don't blame me for what I'm about to do." Rocky didn't want to
waste his time arguing with them anymore. He had already planned in his mind. If he failed to persuade
the queen, he could only use a more brutal way.

The queen and Felicia were shocked when he said this. They knew that Rocky was a man of his word.
He definitely would do anything he said.



"Basil, please give Her Majesty and my master more time to thoroughly think about it again!" Erica was
a little anxious. She was worried that Rocky might do something to make the Magic Phoenix Empire
lose. In that case, more innocent people would be involved.

Rocky didn't say one more word, but his face was cold and solemn.

"Your Majesty, please think about it again. I know it is intolerable to give up our country, but it can also
prevent our empire from suffering greater harm." At first, Erica didn't want to say anything. But when
she saw that Rocky was deadly serious, she was afraid that something terrible would happen. So, she
had no choice but to help in persuading the queen.

"Erica, are you now on the side of Prince Crimson?" Felicia coldly asked Erica. She felt somehow
betrayed by this.

"Master, I know Basil's request sounds excessive. But if you think about it, it's for the sake of our
empire. If our empire is willing to do as Basil just proposed, then a large-scale war would certainly be
avoided. At least many people would not be involved in the war. It's inevitable that there will be
casualties compared to the passive resistance. But if we give up voluntarily, we will have more time to
prepare," Erica pleaded.

Hearing this, Felicia turned to look at the queen and seemed to be in a dilemma. She thought Erica's
words made sense.

"Have you already made up your mind?" Rocky coldly asked.

"I am sorry, but it's impossible for me to give up the Magic Phoenix Empire," the queen insisted.

"Well, then I have no other choice but to use my method," Rocky replied without any hesitation.

"No, wait..." Felicia shouted as she suddenly thought of something.



Hearing that, Rocky, the queen and Erica looked at her all at the same time.

Felicia walked to the side of the queen and whispered a few words. The queen looked thoughtful after
hearing her words.

After a few moments, the queen slowly raised her head, looked at Rocky and said, "I can agree to your
request, but you have to promise me two things. If you agree to the two requests, I can give up the
Magic Phoenix Empire."

"Go ahead. What are they?" Rocky calmly asked.

"First of all, if we defeat Alston in the future, you must help the Magic Phoenix Empire to regain its
strength," the queen demanded.

"Alright, that's not a problem," Rocky agreed without hesitation.

"The second thing, you must marry Erica," the queen said to everyone's surprise.

Rocky was stunned at her demand. Then he looked at Erica. Back then, the main reason why the
queen and Felicia sent Erica to him was that they hoped that Erica could bear his child and have a
better descendant. According to the rules of the Magic Phoenix Empire, a talented spirit manipulator
like Erica was not allowed to get married. So, it was extremely surprising that the queen suddenly
asked him to marry Erica. She must have her own intentions.

Of course, Erica was the most surprised. She never expected that the queen would make such a
request.

"Give me a reason to agree first," Rocky said to the queen as he narrowed his eyes.

"Erica, go and wait outside," Felicia immediately said to Erica.



Hearing this, Erica was even more curious at what the queen and Felicia were trying to say. She looked
at Felicia and then at Rocky before walking out of the hall.
