"Peace?" Carl sneered, "Your kingdom has lost this opportunity. Our power will suppress every choice you make."

At this time, the door opened again, and the representative of Storm City also walked in. He was tall and strong, with a cold mask on his face, and seemed to be unconcerned about the situation. His name was Rick, one of the rulers of Storm City.

"Carl, it seems that you have already started the negotiations here." Rick sat down casually, his eyes swept over Alvin and Lillian, with a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth.

"Rick, you're here just in time." Carl smiled slightly, "We are discussing how to make the Alpha Kingdom accept reality."

"Accept reality?" Rick's voice was low and threatening. "Are you still dreaming, Prince of the Alpha Kingdom? Your era is over."

Irvin felt nervous, but he knew he couldn't back down. "We won't give up our rights and dignity easily." He looked directly into Rick's eyes and spoke firmly.

"Rights and dignity?" Rick sneered. "In front of the strong, these are meaningless. We will let you understand what real power is."

Lillian felt a chill, and the situation seemed to be getting more serious. She turned to look at Alvin, wanting to give him some support, but she knew that this negotiation was not going to be easy.

"We don't want to be your enemy." Alvin tried to keep his voice calm. "We hope to find a win-win solution."

"You want a win-win situation?" Carl laughed coldly, "Faced with our alliance, the Alpha Magic Kingdom no longer has any choice."

At this time, the representative of Crystal City also came in. Her name was Mira. She was wearing gorgeous clothes, with a cold face and a sparkling wisdom in her eyes. She walked to the table and clapped her hands lightly, attracting everyone's attention.

"It seems that we are all gathered here." Mira smiled slightly, "I believe that negotiation is the best way to resolve the problem, rather than through threats and intimidation."

"Mira, you're here just in time." Carl turned his head and said with a hint of disdain, "We are discussing the situation of the Alpha Kingdom."

"I know." Mira's voice was soft but firm, "But I believe that strength is not only demonstrated through force. True strength lies in wisdom and strategy."

"Wisdom and strategy?" Rick sneered, "On the battlefield, these are useless."

"Maybe you can try." Mira raised her eyebrows slightly, "But I believe that wisdom can change the situation."

Alvin felt a glimmer of hope. Mira's arrival seemed to have brought a glimmer of hope to the negotiations. "Mira, we hope to find a peaceful solution and avoid unnecessary conflict."

"I agree." Mira nodded, "We can discuss some compromise solutions to satisfy the interests of all parties."

"Compromise?" Carl's eyes flashed with doubt. "Do you think we will compromise?"

"Compromise does not mean weakness." Mira's voice was firm, "but it shows wisdom and foresight."

The negotiations continued in a tense atmosphere, with representatives from all parties holding their own opinions, sometimes arguing, sometimes silent. Alvin knew in his heart that this negotiation would not only be about the game of power, but also about the choice of the future.

The topic of the meeting was undoubtedly Elvin Stormborn, since his actions in the Magic Kingdom had caused a series of disturbances, and the high-ranking officials in the Dark City were extremely shocked.

"Do you all think Alvin is playing dumb?" A congressman named Carl broke the silence, his tone full of dissatisfaction.

"Of course! He clearly knew what he was doing, but he insisted on dragging us into this!" Another female councillor named Lina responded with a frown.

"But we have not formed an alliance with Crystal City and Thunder City, so why would they be implicated?" Carl shook his head, looking a little confused.

"That's the problem." At the other end of the conference room, Ron, the leader of the Dark City, stood up and said in a deep and powerful voice, "We must send out an invitation letter and ask their position. In any case, we can't let Alvin's stupid behavior affect us."

At this time, the parliament of Crystal City was also having a heated discussion. The lights in the parliament hall were bright, and the walls were decorated with various crystals, which looked gorgeous and mysterious.

"What? An invitation from the Dark City?" Emily, the chief councillor of Crystal City, was so shocked that she almost dropped the document in her hand.

"Yes, Emily. We have no idea what Dark City is doing." Jack, a young councilman, interrupted, with confusion written all over his face.

"I think we should reply to them and make our position clear." Emily thought for a moment and finally spoke.

"But they have nothing to do with us, why should we pay attention to their invitation?" Jack asked back, looking a little dissatisfied.

"That's exactly what we need to consider," Emily said firmly. "If we don't respond, the Dark City might think we're avoiding the topic, which would not be good for us."

At the same time, the Thunder City Parliament was also in chaos. Speaker Harvey sat in the middle of the conference table with a solemn expression.

"Everyone, I have seen the invitation letter from the Dark City. They seem to be very angry about what happened to Alvin." Harvey spoke slowly in a low voice.

"We were not involved in this dispute at all, why should we be dragged into it?" a member of parliament named Philip said indignantly.

"But we can't ignore the influence of the Dark City." Harvey shook his head. "If we don't take action, we may encounter greater trouble in the future."

"I agree with Harvey." Another female councillor, Megan, added, "We should communicate with Crystal City and Dark City as soon as possible to understand their true intentions."

Just then, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Emily and Jack walked in. As soon as the two entered the door, everyone's eyes were immediately focused on them.

"Emily, Jack, you're just in time." Harvey smiled. "We were discussing the invitation to Dark City."

"We do too." Emily nodded, a hint of nervousness on her face. "We think we should reply to Dark City as soon as possible and make our position clear."

"But we don't want to get involved in their dispute." Philip spoke again, with uneasiness in his tone.

"I understand your concerns, but if we don't respond, it may cause misunderstanding." Emily explained, "The Dark City is not an existence that can be easily ignored."

"I think we can send a representative to the Dark City first to understand their ideas," Jack suggested.

"That's a good idea," Harvey agreed. "This way we can better assess the situation."

"Who wants to go?" Megan asked, glancing at the MPs present.

"I'll go." Emily stood up without hesitation, "I'm willing to go to the Dark City myself."

"Are you sure? That place is not very safe." Philip asked with concern.

"I know, but I have to go." Emily said firmly, "I need to understand their true intentions. We can't let our city be dragged into this dispute."

Finally, Emily decided to leave for Dark City the next day, and before she left, a high-level meeting in Dark City was going on.

"We must be prepared to meet the representatives from Crystal City." Ron's voice sounded again, "No matter what their attitude is, we cannot appear weak."

"But what should we do if they are unwilling to cooperate?" Carl asked, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Then let them know our determination." Ron smiled coldly, "We must not let Alvin's stupid behavior affect us."

At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open again, and Emily walked in. Her arrival instantly made the atmosphere in the conference room tense.

"Hello, I'm Emily, the representative from Crystal City," she introduced herself confidently, scanning everyone present with a determined gaze.

"Welcome, Emily." Ron smiled slightly, appearing amiable on the surface, but secretly wary in his heart.

"I'm here to find out what you think of Alvin Stormson." Emily went straight to the point, not hiding her purpose.

"We are angry about Alvin's behavior." Ron said coldly, "He dragged us into a dispute that we did not want to participate in."

"But Crystal City is not involved in this," Emily responded, her tone firm. "We hope to make this clear."

"Clarify? Then what are you going to do?" Carl interrupted, with a provocative gleam in his eyes.

"We hope you can understand that we don't want to be your enemy," Emily explained patiently, "We just want to protect our city."

"Protecting your own city? That sounds great." Ron said with a sarcastic smile, "Unfortunately, reality is often not what we wish for."

"I hope we can find a peaceful solution." Emily continued to insist, "After all, war is not good for anyone."

"You're right. War is indeed of no benefit." Ron's tone softened. "But we must ensure that our own interests are not harmed."

"I understand your position." Emily nodded, "but we hope to have further dialogue based on this."

The atmosphere in the conference room gradually eased. Although there were still differences between the two sides, the dialogue between them eased the tense situation.

"Have you heard? Alvin Stormson actually dared to show off his power in front of us!" The voice of the Storm Lord was as deafening as thunder, and his angry breath filled the air.

"Humph, who does he think he is? He's just a Star Guardian. Does he still want to challenge us?" The Thunder City Lord smiled coldly, his eyes flashing with disdain. His palms were clenched, and his fingertips were shining with a faint electric light, as if he was ready to release his anger at any time.

"I think we should go meet him and see what this young Star Guardian is capable of." The Storm Lord's tone softened a little, but anger was still burning in his eyes.

"Go meet him? Are you crazy?" The Thunder City Lord raised his voice eight degrees higher, his face full of disdain, "Why should we condescend to meet a little guardian?"

"Condescend? Don't you think this is a challenge to our dignity?" The Storm Lord's voice rose again, and he seemed a little excited. "He is so arrogant in front of us. Do we want him to think that he can do whatever he wants?"

"You're right." The Thunder Lord was silent for a moment, as if thinking about what the Storm Lord said, "But we can't be too impatient. If we let him feel that we care about him, it will give him a chance to win."

"Then we just let him wait?" The Storm Lord's tone was a little provocative. "I want to see what tricks he can come up with."

"Well, since you insist on going, then we will go." The Thunder City Lord shook his head helplessly, with a trace of disdain in his eyes, "But I won't give him a good face."

The two city lords finally decided to go to the Starlight Guardian's base, secretly competing in their hearts to see who would have the upper hand in this confrontation.

Soon after, they arrived at the Starlight Guardian's camp, surrounded by a peaceful scene, which seemed to be in sharp contrast to the turbulent waves in their hearts. In the camp, Elvin Stormson was discussing something with several guards, and the sun shone through the clouds, giving him a layer of golden light.
