Chapter 368
This revealed a dangerous signal. The Klein tribe's territory is aggressive. When there are no more creatures in this territory to transform them, will they set their sights outside this territory?
The answer is yes.
Because Sean discovered during the investigation that the territory of the Klein tribe has expanded by nearly one-third without knowing it.
Once the Klein tribe enters a state of expansion, the people of the Crocodile tribe will bear the brunt first, followed by the 200,000 troops of the Kingsley family's Eastern Army, and then the leader of the Yongye army.
It seems that the Yongye army leader seems to be the last one, so don't worry too much.
In fact, it is not the case. If these monsters eat up the 200,000 troops of the Kingsley Family's Eastern Army, I don't know what kind of virtue they will develop into. Will the leader of the Eternal Night Army have the ability to stop its expansion? ?
The third point is that the battleship Dragon Roar, which was captured by the soldiers of the Klein tribe, was on its way to the core area.
There is no longer any waterway leading here. The Dragon Roar was dragged out of the water by them, like ants moving house, surrounded by countless Klein soldiers, moving here bit by bit, 25 hours a day non-stop, Travel at a speed of no more than five kilometers per day.
Given that what they were carrying was a huge object that was over forty meters long and weighed hundreds of tons, this speed was quite astonishing.
"Prepare the dissection room." After throwing down the corpse of the skeleton war crocodile that Xiao En brought back, he plunged into the dissection room. In just two hours, he dismantled it to pieces.
Anatomical results are displayed.
The condition of the skeleton war crocodile is exactly the same as that of the undead Klein soldier.
It is because a large amount of death-attribute magic energy is mixed into the blood, which leads to physical changes.
The only difference is that the skeleton war crocodile has one more item than the undead Klein soldier. It is the phenomenon of evolution that first appeared, and then the undead.
This is why their physical changes are greater than those of undead Klein soldiers.
Sean and the others looked at it the most. This evolutionary phenomenon is obviously directional, otherwise it would be impossible for so many identical skeleton war crocodiles to appear in a short period of time.
As the research on the situation of Klein's tribe became more and more, the chill in Xiao En's heart grew stronger. What kind of monsters were hidden under the fog of death?
Fortunately, Sean has learned to control his emotions, separate different things, and prevent them from affecting his handling of other government affairs.
Sean basically didn't think too much about Ake Messer's request for a meeting, and said, "If he wants to meet, arrange a meeting. I'd like to see what cards he still holds in his hand. For specific matters, you can look at the arrangements. "
There is no need for Sean to worry about the safety of the meeting between the two parties. The people below will be more considerate than him.
Sean also didn't believe that at this time, Ake Messer could still use inferior methods such as assassination or kidnapping. Doing so would only completely anger the leader of Yongye, leaving no room for maneuver in the matter.
"Of order, Your Excellency." Bran followed the order and left.
The meeting between the supreme commanders of the enemy and us is simple to say, but when it is actually implemented, a lot of tedious things are involved.
Among them, the security issue is the top priority. Both parties are worried about the other party's petty tricks, so they are naturally careful.
No matter the time and place, it will be decided after careful selection, negotiation and compromise.
Even the content of the meeting and negotiation, the two sides will conduct a certain amount of communication in advance, so that when the two supreme commanders meet, they will have a bottom line in their hearts, and they will not collapse as soon as they get started, and fall apart at once, and nothing will be resolved in the end.
As soon as the main chief of staff, Bran, left, Ralph, the eagle brain of Hawkeye and Sean's number one spy chief, followed in.
"What's the matter?" Facing Ralph, Sean was obviously more relaxed.
"Information from the capital, Grand Duke Buck has entered the city today." Ralph replied.
"Your Majesty's delay on the road was longer than we expected. It seems that the Kingsley family's financial crisis is more serious than expected, and they have to spend more time raising funds." Xiao En saw from this news to latent information.
When Grand Duke Buck hurriedly crossed the river and returned to Carter's army, they had already expected that the opponent would make this move. Sean was more concerned with the reaction of his allies than others, "Where is Your Highness?"
"His Royal Highness announced that she was sick three days ago and shut herself to no one. Her Royal Highness's number one diplomat, Ms. Amelia, is already on her way to the Swamp of Despair and will arrive in a few days. It is estimated that she came here for this matter." Eagle After so many years of operation, the Eye Special Service has become very mature, especially the capital of Valesta. With the large-scale entry of the Yongye Army's caravan, the number of active eagle eyes is astonishing. The slightly larger winds fluctuate. One day, it will spread to the Yongye army leader.
Xiao En finally showed a long-lost smile. Among the many bad news, there was finally a piece of good news. The reaction of the princess regent undoubtedly sent out the same signal - in her mind, the weight of the leader of the Yongye Army now is far away. Much higher than the Kingsley family.
Even if the princess regent had to intervene in the negotiations between the Kingsley family and the Yong Ye army leader, she would still stand by the Yong Ye army leader.
As long as there is this guarantee, even in the Politburo, there will be some entanglements.
It's not just the Kingsley family who can smash people with gold and silver mountains. The leader of the Yongye army is also not too shy. Sean's name as an upstart baron is not for nothing.
While Grand Duke Buck was still on his way to the capital Valesta, the leader of the Eternal Night Army had already taken action.
However, there is a huge difference in the way the two behave.
The Kingsley family likes to use real money to open the way, and the leader of the Yongye Army likes to form an alliance of interests and use the method of sharing interests to tie people.
Both approaches have pros and cons.
The Kingsley family's method is simple and rude, and has immediate results, but it has very high requirements on its own financial resources, and it must be able to mobilize enough liquidity to make it happen. It's just that this kind of temporary cramming is easy to be ruthlessly slaughtered by the other party.
In comparison, the Yong Ye military leader's way of forming an alliance of interests requires more time and energy, but once it is concluded, it will be burning incense every day, and the relationship between the two parties will be much more stable. Before realizing the benefits, one has to carefully weigh the pros and cons.
The effect of other people is temporarily unknown, but the effect of Regent Princess Sophilia is quite good.
After so many years of operation, many interests of the Eternal Night Army Leader in the Byron Alliance have been tied up with the Regent Princess.
The better the management of the Yongye army leader and the greater the power, the greater the income that Sophie Liya can get into the account.
As long as you are a smart person, you know how to choose.
Apparently, Princess Regent Sophilia is the wisest of wisers.
"The bad news is that the black powder has been completely exposed, which has attracted the great attention of those big forces. Whether it is the Holy See of Ether, the Witches' Secret Society, the Warlock Union or the Grand Duke's family, they have all started to organize special secret research departments. I'm afraid it won't be used. How long will it take before they can reverse the black powder formula." Ralph said with a worried expression, "It's very difficult for our people to get involved in this top-secret unit, and we have no way to grasp their research progress."
Special international organizations like the Holy See of Ether, the Witches' Conclave, and the Union of Warlocks are far more difficult to infiltrate than ordinary forces.
Organizations like the Holy See, in addition to ability, also need faith as a measure, which requires long-term operation.
The Witch Conclave and Warlock Alliance, if they want to enter the core high-level, they must be born as warlocks. Ordinary people can only be their peripheral personnel at best, and it is difficult to get in touch with the core position. The leader of the Eternal Night Army has not yet been extravagant enough to train warlocks to be eagle-eyed. .
"As expected, if they don't pay attention to it, I would rather wonder how they have survived for so many years." Xiao En looked calm, obviously mentally prepared for this, "Could it be possible that we can still do it because we are afraid of black powder being exposed?" , just hide it and not use it?"
The battle situation in the Swamp of Despair is different from what happened in the Andes Mountains, and the leader of the Eternal Night Army has no way to block the news.
Black gunpowder, a brand new strategic weapon, once exposed, will surely be famous far and wide as the Yong Ye army leads a brilliant victory.
As long as those power leaders are not idiots, they will definitely invest a lot of manpower and material resources in this regard.
It is only a matter of time before the black powder formula is cracked, and the time will not be too long.
In addition to the fact that the black powder formula is not complicated, it is also because there is no shortage of smart people in this world.
It's just that these smart people didn't spend their energy on this aspect. When they start thinking, they don't know what new discoveries they have. Maybe they can even make chemical explosives. In the documents of the ancient Andes Empire, there are Records about alchemy bombs.
"That's something a fool can do." Sean's reaction eased Ralph's tense nerves a lot. Since his lord had foreseen it in advance, he must have prepared a corresponding countermeasure, so he didn't have to worry about it.
"It's good to understand this." Xiao En nodded and said, "We can't hinder the development of others, but we can control our own. We only need to be a few steps ahead of others, or even half a step."
"What the lord said is true. I am a little greedy and always want to monopolize those good things." Ralph said with an embarrassed smile.
"Where's Ban Hebrew? Is there any news?" Sean took the opportunity to learn about the situation of his neighbors.
Just when the Eternal Night Army leader fell into the desperate swamp battle situation, the east of the Andes Mountains also fell into a new round of turmoil. In order to prevent the backyard from burning, the Eternal Night Army leader not only released all the mountain Kentana barbarians, but also Supporting a large amount of military supplies and a branch of the military staff, it was Ban Hebrew who led the team.
"Recently, there has been no major battle in the east, but the situation is still deteriorating. Every day, new Kentana barbarians come from the direction of the ice field, ranging from four or five to as many as a dozen. It won't take long The output of the land they occupy will not be able to bear their demands, and a new round of expansion will inevitably start at that time. Judging from the previous round of confrontation, even with our support, the Cliff Clan will find it difficult to resist. There is too much disparity, those Kentana barbarians from the ice field are all monsters." Ralph rarely mixed his own personal opinions in the information.
The invincible bravery of the mountain Kentana barbarians has already left a deep impression on the leader of Yongye.
But that pales in comparison to the Kentana savages from the ice plains.
This difference is not only shown in the physique, but also in the fierceness.
The difference between the two is like domesticated domestic dogs and wild wolves standing side by side, and people who don't know the difference between them can clearly distinguish them.
"What about communication?" Sean frowned, not expressing his personal views.
Ralph shook his head and said: "It's not ideal. Those Kentana barbarians are too brutal. They are usually loose and unwilling to obey discipline. Although they have a group posture, they haven't elected a town yet. The leader who lives in the place comes, even if we want to communicate, we can't find a person who has the final say, if we rashly buy them with supplies, I'm afraid that the meat bun will beat the dog, and we will never return."
"This is indeed a big trouble." Sean couldn't help showing a trace of helplessness.
Originally, he was in a state of crocodile rule, and he was already scattered enough. It was only when he got in touch with the Kentana barbarians that he found out that the other party was not bad. At least they had a council of elders who had been in a dominant position for many years, and they could negotiate and communicate with each other. The strength of the military leader.
The Kentana savage is really right to call his name, he can be really savage.
There are not even many clans with more than 100 members. They are in a state of absolute disarray, and most of them are based on families.
The reason for this situation is directly related to the living environment of the Kentana Ice Field.
The production here is scarce, and the production of several kilometers or even tens of kilometers of land can support the survival of several families.
If you form a tribe with a large number of people, you are looking for death in a group.
Only during the short hunting period when the ice and sea thaw, will they gather together to hunt those large sea beasts collectively.
After the hunting period is over, they will be torn apart and separated again as a family, each returning to its own hunting area.
It is precisely because of this unique way of life that they have continued to this day on the harsh conditions of the Kentana Icefield.
Now their centuries-old way of life has been disrupted by successive natural disasters.
Their way of life is less disaster-resistant than a single race. It doesn’t need to be too complicated. It only needs that the ice sea does not thaw for two consecutive years, so that they lose the most important opportunity to replenish supplies in a year, and their lives will be completely messed up. .
In order not to exterminate the genocide, they can only transfer this genocide crisis to other races.
Xiao En began to try to solve this incident through communication, even if it was to give them some food for free and help them tide over the immediate crisis.
But there is no one to call the shots at all, so you can't come one by one, right?
The most fearful thing is that the other party refused to retreat after taking the supplies. Once this kind of assistance from the Yong Ye Army Commander becomes a habit, it will be even more troublesome.
The battle in the Swamp of Despair has already involved too much of their energy, and they can only support the local aboriginals of the Cliff Clan to passively defend and gain more reaction time for themselves.
Generally speaking, although the situation is still deteriorating, it has not yet reached the point of complete collapse.
According to the original plan, the Yongye army would take a year and a half to drag the Kingsley family's Eastern Army to death, and by the way completely digest the crocodile tribe.
Now that there is an extra Klein tribe variable out of thin air, it is hard to say whether everything will develop according to the original plan.
