Chapter 950: Opportunity
New Brissand, space of consciousness.
Sean received Marshal Eriksson, the supreme military commander of the Donau Plain Defense Zone, and Woody, the commander of the explorer fleet, alone.
"The two of you came together, there must be some hesitation in the south of the East China Sea." Sean asked straight to the point.
Woody complimented sincerely: "You can't hide anything from your lord. There is indeed a difficult matter on our side. If it is not handled properly, it will affect the relationship between the territory and the largest force in East Africa, the Bronze Dragon Clan. I also want to discuss with the lord to see how to deal with it."
"Don't worry about it, let me guess." Sean asked with a smile, "You don't want to talk about the theft of the dragon egg, do you?"
"The lord knows things like a god." Woody couldn't hide his surprise on his face, "Yes, this is the matter, the lord already knows about it?"
"It's hard to know whether you know it or not. This story is being spread all over the taverns and alleys in New Brissand. Even if you don't take the initiative to come to me, when I get some time, I'm going to ask you to find out the whole story of this matter. Specifically Tell me, what's going on? There are too many gossips circulating on the streets, and it's hard to distinguish the true from the false. Could it be that the three stolen dragon eggs have really fallen into our hands? That's a hot potato!"
"This incident is entirely a coincidence. A pirate ship named Black Shark sank while avoiding the storm. The wreckage was accidentally hit by the vortex and involved in the lair of a bronze dragon. This pirate ship The boatswain survived by luck.
After a narrow escape, he sold the lair as a treasure to other pirate teams.
The greedy people heard that there was a pile of ready treasures waiting for them, and they didn't care about the consequences.
Use several pirate ships to lure away the giant dragon guarding the lair, and the rest took the opportunity to loot the dragon lair, including three hatching dragon eggs.
Doing so completely angered the Bronze Giant Dragon Clan. They hunted down the group of egg thieves in the East China Sea, and tracked down the whereabouts of the dragon eggs. Even our fleet also affected Chiyu, and was often attacked. "Woody succinctly explained the whole thing,
"This group of guys are still asking for money and life as always." Sean did not give a clear answer, but asked instead, "This matter is between the group of pirates and the dragons, how is it involved? On us? Could it be that those three hot potatoes have already fallen into your hands?"
"Not yet, but it's almost there. After all, we are the only ones who can eat these three dragon eggs in the entire East China Sea. The pirates have already started trying to contact us and want to sell these three dragon eggs to us. "
Woody nodded and expressed their troubles, "We are a little hesitant here. We don't know whether we should eat it or not. If we choose to eat it, what price should we pay? After all, this kind of product is unprecedented. , We have no way to dig out its greatest value by ourselves.”
"From what you mean, your opinion tends to be to eat these three dragon eggs?"
"Yes, the giant dragons have such a great advantage in the air. Ordinary artillery can't pose a threat to them at all. We can only rely on anti-aircraft guns and giant eagles to intercept them in the air. But the giant eagles can at best contain them. It is easy to be suppressed by giant dragons. In the past three years, 60% of our warships have been destroyed by them. If we can domesticate our own giant dragons, it will be of great significance, but this matter requires other related departments cooperation."
When Woody talked about the dragon, his words were full of powerlessness.
Their new warships, which were originally invincible across the sea, were obviously powerless against legendary creatures like giant dragons.
Especially the Bronze Julong, which lives in the sea, land and air, dives in the gaps, lurks in the deep sea, and is proficient in everything.
Unless the warships are grouped together to form a fire suppression, one-on-one, except for the Dragon Roar, no warship is an opponent of those giant dragons.
This caused them to be tied up in the East China Sea, severely limiting their development speed.
"It's a good idea, but it's not realistic. As far as I know, the growth cycle of a dragon is long. Even if it is a method of human intervention, it will take decades for a dragon to grow from a dragon egg to a usable dragon. Not to mention cultivating them on a large scale, I'm afraid it will take several centuries to complete. We don't have that much time. Waiting for them to grow up is one of them.
The second is that what we do is tantamount to completely pushing ourselves to the opposite side of the bronze dragon family, and it is difficult for the two sides to have room for relaxation. "
Sean vetoed Marshal Woody's proposal and proposed another plan, "So, we have a better choice, send troops to destroy the pirates, and snatch the three dragon eggs, as a comprehensive plan with the bronze dragon clan." The gift of positive contact, even if you don't sign an alliance with them, you must reach a normal business consensus."
"How is it? Marshal Woody, give up now. I told you a long time ago that your proposal will not work, and a temporary compromise is the most correct choice." Marshal Eriksson, who had been listening in, couldn't help but Zhu showed a triumphant smile.
"So, the two of you have already thought of the second plan?" Sean glanced back and forth between the two marshals, hearing what they said, and there was a story in it.
"Yes." Marshal Eriksson nodded and admitted, "Before we came, the two of us had an in-depth discussion. At that time, I proposed a similar plan, but Marshal Woody was greedy for dragons and didn't want to do it so easily. Let go, go to the lord to make a final attempt, and now I have completely given up."
"The combat power of greedy dragons is only one aspect." Marshal Woody spread his hands with a wry smile, "According to what I know about those dragons, they are really not easy to deal with. They are afraid that we will bring dragon eggs. They Not only will they not accept our goodwill, but they will treat us as accomplices of egg thieves, which will have the opposite effect."
"Even giant dragons can't be generalized. Different races have different personalities. If the opponent is a green dragon clan, this situation may indeed happen. If it is a bronze dragon clan, this situation is very small. But we have to be careful, it is very necessary to show off our muscles when dealing with such powerful legendary creatures, only beings who are as powerful as them can communicate and cooperate with them on an equal footing."
Xiao En pondered for a while, and gave further advice, "How about this, after you go back, further track down the traces of those egg thieves, it's best to hold the dragon eggs in our hands first, and fight with the bronze dragon." Let me personally handle the matter of the family meeting and negotiation."
"The lord personally took action, and there is no problem with this matter." Woody was overjoyed, he did not expect Sean to attach so much importance to this matter.
"In this world, there is no such thing as 100%." Sean was as humble as ever.
"Then we won't waste the precious time of the lord. Let's go back and prepare first. If there is any news, we will report it to the lord as soon as possible."
"Then I won't keep you guys."
The two marshals came and went in a hurry, returning to their station and fleet, ready to hunt out this daring pirates, waiting for their fate can be imagined.
They will become political victims of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Eternal Night Army Leader and the Bronze Dragon Clan.
It is not an exception that the two marshals asked for an audience alone.
Basically, before returning to the head of the Yong Ye army, he took more or less time to meet with him alone.
On the one hand, some practical local or departmental issues involve confidentiality and internal disputes among military leaders. They are not suitable for group discussion in public and can only be reported in private.
On the other hand, it is to reconnect with the relationship and further consolidate his position. After all, he has been absent from the five-year construction of the Yongye Army Commander.
As soon as the high-level meeting of the Yong Ye army leader ended, Xiao En rushed to the Shadow City without stopping, preparing to participate in another special meeting.
If it is said that the high-level meeting of the Yongye military leaders will directly affect the future of the entire Arshan continent.
The special meeting held in Shadow City is related to the future of the entire Arshan continent, because this meeting is about planes, especially about the annexation of Abigail's plane.
Although Sean mentioned the matter of Abigail's plane at the high-level meeting, he used the Spring and Autumn style of writing to briefly mention it. They only knew that Sean got bad benefits in another plane and had a relationship with a powerful Existence, established a friendly alliance.
But Sean didn't tell everything about that plane that was about to collapse and that he planned to annex it.
Because their work does not involve this area, they only need to know the general direction. If they know more about the rest, not only will they not provide help, but they will increase the risk of leaking secrets.
Although the surface of Nether Shadow City was once occupied by the Undead Empire, the defense of the Eternal Night Army Commander did a good job, blocking all passages to the ground in advance.
Therefore, until it was destroyed, the undead empire did not know that there was a most advanced and core magic research center of the enemy under its own territory.
Ever since the discovery of Shadow City and the space cracks here.
Yong Ye's military leader's research on planes moved here one after another.
At the same time, an unprecedented magical project has also entered the construction state - a 2,200-kilometer-long magical subway that is completely buried tens of meters deep.
Before his soul was exiled, Sean had already confessed to Sophilia, and personally led her to visit here, knowing the importance of research here.
There is no way to measure the output here with material.
Therefore, after Sophie Liya came to power, the Yongye army leader faced an extremely difficult situation, and he only temporarily reduced his investment in this area, but did not completely stop it.
After six years of investment, this super magic subway was officially opened to traffic a year ago.
The impact of this magic subway on Shadow City is absolutely earth-shaking.
It allowed them to escape from the four-century-long closed situation directly, and all kinds of originally scarce materials were continuously transported from the Yongye army leader through this artery.
This new nutrition line even caused an unprecedented explosion in their population—after all, they were limited by the limited output of Shadow City, and had to adopt relatively strict family planning.
Among them, the most severe population explosion is the fungus.
After all, this fantasy species is not a plant in the true sense. It can be planted in batches by planting.
Their uncontested personalities and unique abilities are highly valued by Xiao En, and the policy is somewhat inclined.
On the more than 2,000-kilometer Magical Metro Line, there is a new underground town at regular intervals, and the main residents are mushroom people.
The explosion of mushroom man population has resulted in a large number of fungus and mushrooms as home-cooked vegetables on the sensitive dining table of Yongye Army Leader.
In addition, mushroom people also act as guardians and maintainers of the magic subway.
Overall, Sean has basically fulfilled his promise to the residents of Shadow City, allowing both parties to co-exist for mutual benefit.
This naturally made his reputation reach its peak here.
After a little operation, Sean gained nearly 200,000 beliefs.
Ninety-nine percent of these beliefs come from the simple-minded mushroom people.
However, the main reason for them to believe in Sean is not that Sean allowed their tribe to rapidly expand and their population rapidly expanded, but that relying on the consciousness space created by the magic subway, all mushroom people are in a large network, realizing the realization of human beings. Everyone has an Internet, and everyone can act as a great dream of a web designer.
As the creator of this dream, Sean is not a god, what is it?
The re-planned Shadow City is also not what it used to be.
Although it is still damp, it is not dark, and every corner is shrouded in soft magic light.
The various passages are also planned neatly, very in the style of Yong Ye's army leadership.
If there is a three-dimensional map of Shadow City, you will find that the whole city presents a huge upside-down semi-ellipse, surrounded by the most unstable gate of space.
"After our trial and error over the past nine years, as well as the plane information recently compiled by the lord, this gate of space is not a gate of planes in the true sense, at least not connecting two, or even multiple planes. The gate of the plane is a singular point of our plane, a space shortcut formed by folding each other, so most of the scenes we peep through it belong to our plane itself."
The first project of the special plane conference was for Xiao En to listen to the summary report of the research team led by the Yongye Army on the special plane for the past ten years. , the ancestors of the Andes.
"Is there any strong basis?" Sean's expression remained unchanged, and he was not surprised by this conclusion.
"There are two strong evidences. Do you feel familiar with these memory images?" The ancestor directly played several memory images to Xiao En.
"This is the Andes Mountains, and this is the Kentana Ice Field... What does the ancestor mean, that the other end of this space rift has been wandering in our plane?" Sean finally showed a look of shock.
