"A Negotiation"

The messenger immediately replied to the marshal's inquiry. 

"Our master asked us to invite some of you to the island to discuss about the negotiation. Of course, you're allowed to bring around 20-50 people, but not more." 

Such an offer was really humiliating. It made the marshal feel like a prisoner! 

But the marshal knew that it was impossible to bring the whole army to the island. 

If the island's owner let it happen, that means she's too stupid to develop the island! 

The marshal could only swallow his dissatisfaction and immediately arranged 50 elites to follow him to the island. 

The elites he chose were the best of the best among the 10.000 people, and the small ships he chose to go to the island was also the best small ships they had. 

The whole 50 people were armed to the teeth, but none of them could bring explosions because the marshal didn't let them have that.
