Chapter 744 Incorporating Inaba Island (Part 2) 3600 Words
"Okay, after you two withdraw the large forces in a while, you will both come to the mayor's residence in Xueying Town."
Lin Lan was not surprised that these two people could hear his murderous intention towards Master Hui An.
After all, no matter what they say, they are still the actual people in charge of the main island. If they don't even have this bit of vision and speculation, it's really in vain.
What's more, he is indeed dissatisfied with the Kaoru Anshi and the Nine Islands Alliance, but due to the existence of the Demon King's Army and X, he doesn't want to cause trouble.
"The mayor of Xueying Town doesn't know my identity yet, but he has a relationship with me. As the general agent of Inaba Island, for the evil done by the mecha troops who came to Xueying Town before, you will report to her on my behalf." Make amends."
"As for the production and construction plan for the four Liaozhou Islands, it can continue to be implemented, and taxes no longer need to be so high."
After Lin Lan finished speaking, he focused his eyes on Jiang Jianmu, squinted his eyes and said:
"When the time is right and the threat from the Demon King's army is lifted, I will arrange for you to return to Oran."
Hearing these words with a firm tone, Jiang Jianmu nodded heavily due to excitement.
Now that he knows that the United States of Oran is still alive and well, he will naturally not be so eager to return to his homeland.
As for apologizing to the mayor of Xueying Town, whom he had never met, it was not a difficult task for him.
The other party is someone recognized by Lord Lurker, and it's too late for him to reach out to him.
Not to mention an apology, Jiang Jianmu has even made detailed plans in his mind for a series of subsequent economic and construction compensation for Xueying Town.
Ina Yerong also breathed a long sigh of relief, looking at Lin Lan with endless gratitude in her eyes.
The reason why Tianou Group has been levying higher and higher taxes on the four islands in recent years is mainly to prepare for the expedition.
Such high taxes have made many ordinary Liaozhou residents in the four islands unable to open their mouths.
Now that Lord Latent has promised to resume sailing to Oran, the Tianou Group naturally no longer needs to collect high taxes to accumulate these armaments.
You know, as the island owner who has taken refuge in the Tianou Group, she faces great pressure in this situation.
And once sailing with Oran resumes, many modern products that have not been produced in Liaozhou in recent years can be continuously transported from Oran.
Those residents who went to work in Oran ten years ago can finally return to Liaozhou.
This is a shot in the arm for many urban families who are in urgent need of labor and are waiting for their families to return.
Inaba Rong already knew in the classics that only Liaozhou people can obtain elemental skills and cause effective damage to the Demon King's army.
Liaozhou, which has lost so many young and middle-aged people, now has some difficulty in fighting against the Demon King's army.
After Lin Lan finished giving these instructions to the two of them, he was just about to return to Xueying Town, but suddenly he remembered that he had forgotten to arrange some of the most important things.
So he opened his mouth again, looked at the two people in front of him, and asked slowly:
"The progress of the Inaba Island's ancient ruins strategy. Are there any new breakthroughs in the past ten years?"
Hearing him mention this matter, Ina Yerong, as the head of the Inaba family responsible for handling this matter, changed her face slightly and replied to Lin Lan in an apologetic tone:
"I'm extremely sorry, Lord Lurker, the progress of conquering the ancient ruins of the island core in the past ten years is still at the same level."
"Originally, according to your arrangement, Inaba Island should have three adamantine-level adventurer teams and three mecha troops to coordinate the expedition to the ruins."
"However, due to the appearance of the sirens, the Sea Hunting Festival cannot be carried out. The number of ocean monsters has increased year by year, seriously affecting the safety of the trade routes of the islands."
"So all the troops that were originally used to attack the ancient ruins of the island core were transferred by me to protect the Chamber of Commerce. I hope you will forgive me."
After Daoyerong finished speaking, Jiang Jianmu also supplemented his words:
"This is not only the case for Inaba Island, sir, the progress of the other three islands, and even the ancient ruins on the main island of the Nine Islands Alliance has also been temporarily stalled due to the appearance of the sirens."
"Since eight years ago, the islands of Liaozhou have gradually stopped organizing strategy festivals and sea hunting festivals. The last strategy festival was held on Shimmer Island four years ago."
Well, Lin Lan couldn't help but sigh in his heart after learning about the lag in the ruins strategy.
It seems that the burden of conquering the ancient ruins of the island core must be left to him and the Shige Sakura ship girls.
Let’s start with Inaba Island.
"Don't blame yourself. You guys made flexible arrangements and did a great job."
Lin Lan first finished speaking to Ina Yerong, then paused and continued to organize his words:
"The Demon King's Army is about to revive. Once the Demon King's Army is completely awakened, not only Liaozhou will be destroyed, but Oran and other countries will also be unable to escape."
"To defeat the Demon King's army, we must obtain enough ancient technology from the ancient ruins of the island core."
"In three days, I will personally lead a team to the entrance of the island core ancient ruins on Inaba Island to conduct a raid. You just need to arrange enough mecha troops to cooperate with the excavation facilities along the way."
Hearing that he said that he would personally lead a team to attack the ancient ruins of the island core, Jiang Jianmu and Ina Yerong both looked at each other in shock.
"Lord Stalker, those elemental creations, ruins monsters, and ruins mechanism wards are very dangerous. Do you really want to force the strategy without a team of senior adventurers?"
In the end, it was Ina Yerong who took the initiative to ask Lin Lan worriedly.
If the ancient ruins of the island core were really that easy to navigate, it wouldn’t be the case that no one has ever set foot in the depths of the island core for hundreds of years.
In the past, Tianou Group not only sent a large army to forcibly attack the ancient ruins, but also used cannons and bombers to violently bomb the ancient ruins of Inaba Island.
But the result was that the explosion shock waves of those artillery shells and bombs were completely blocked by the ancient mechanism barriers in the ruins, while the island core ancient ruins were safe and sound.
As for the mecha troops, they were torn into scrap metal in front of those ancient elemental creations and the ferocious monsters that inhabited the ancient ruins, and could not even be recycled.
Only the most senior team of Liaozhou adventurers, those strong men of various races who had gone through countless adventures and gained many skills from the ruins, entered the island core ancient ruins that were full of dangers and returned safely.
It is almost impossible for Oran people who cannot acquire skills to survive in the dangerous ancient ruins of the island core.
Because of this, Jiang Jianmu and Inaba Rong were so worried about Lin Lan's plan to lead a team to attack the ancient nuclear ruins of Inaba Island.
"Haha... Since I can come back from Oran, I have my own means of conquering the ancient ruins of Island Core."
Lin Lan smiled coldly, glanced at the two of them, and said slowly:
"Don't forget who defeated the Demon King's army in Xueying Town."
After hearing his words, the two most powerful people in Inaba Island immediately took a breath of cold air.
In the end, they promised Lin Lan that after returning to Awazu City today, they would make preparations as scheduled at the entrance to the island core ancient ruins.
"Speaking of Awajin City, Jiang Jianmu, I have another task for you."
When Lin Lan returned, he finally turned his attention back to the old general agent:
"After you return to Awazu City today, immediately arrange a transportation team to send half of Inaba Island's oil reserves to Xuezakura Town, and half of the assets of Inaba Island Branch will also be escorted over in the form of Kaichen coins."
"After that, I will arrange for people to come to you regularly to collect oil and Haichen coins. There is no need to send these resources to the headquarters before receiving the latest order from the Forge Blade Island headquarters."
Jiang Jianmu naturally nodded in agreement to Lin Lan's request.
All the Tianou Group's assets in Liaozhou belong to Mr. Lurker. Naturally, he, as the general agent, has no reason to refuse the mobilization of resources.
At the same time, Jiang Jianmu is also very lucky that he has not corrupted or wasted these resources over the years.
The amount of Haichen coins he has accumulated through trade, taxes and various operations in the past ten years can definitely satisfy Lord Latent.
As for oil, it is the lifeblood of the Tianou Group in Liaozhou, especially since it has been accumulated for several years for the third expedition, and it will not be a concern for Lord Latent.
"A few days ago, did the Nine Islands Alliance send people to Inaba Island?"
Just when Jiang Jianmu thought Lin Lan was going to leave, Lin Lan suddenly asked him a question that shocked him.
This made his face turn pale almost instantly, and at the same time, Ina Yerong's face also became very ugly.
Sure enough, it is still the same as before, nothing can be hidden from the eyes of the latent observer.
"This matter...I have learned about this matter."
"Years ago, a force from the Nine Islands Alliance infiltrated into Inaba Island and attacked the mecha unit that was originally responsible for collecting taxes near Xueying Town."
Jiang Jianmu honestly reported almost everything he knew to Lin Lan:
"At that time, I thought that this Nine Islands Alliance force was to cause misunderstandings and take the opportunity to win over the Inaba family's Wantong group. But later, after I exchanged information with Inaba Rong, I confirmed that this Nine Islands Alliance force... is From the hidden crew."
"The reason why the Demon King's army attacked Xueying Town and disturbed Lord Stalker was probably caused by this hidden unit with unknown purpose."
After Lin Lan heard this information, his eyes narrowed slightly.
The Yin Machine Team is the direct special forces of the Hui An Division. The information provided by Jian Qianou also mentioned that he should take more precautions.
According to Fang Jin's information, residents of Xueying Town witnessed Yuki being taken away by this hidden crew.
It seems that Yuki may have been sensed by Chief Teru An and sent people to arrest him.
Shen Lian Youxuan, who was still under the control of
But Lin Lan vaguely realized that the problem was not that simple.
He still remembered that before this, there was a Nine Islands Alliance team that was destroyed by the Xiyun class on the outskirts of Xueying Town.
Mikasa's original words at that time was that this Nine Islands League team planned to kidnap the four little lolita and Shiranui, but they were all killed in the end.
If that Nine Islands Alliance team was the one responsible for capturing Yuki, why did they do such unnecessary things?
And the most important point is that since this team has been wiped out, Yuki should not be captured.
After Lin Lan thought for a while, he quickly made his general judgment.
I am afraid that the hidden crew sent to Inaba Island by Kaguya Daiji received two missions at the same time, and chose to divide the troops into two teams and come to Xueying Town.
One of the mission goals of the hidden unit is indeed, as Jiang Jianmu first speculated, to destroy the relationship between Tianou Group and the Inaba family.
The other mission, which is also the most important mission, is to make a special trip to Xueying Town to capture a generation of brave Yuki.
After a team arrived at the outskirts of Xueying Town, they originally planned to capture a few Liaozhou children first, but they happened to bump into four girls of Shiranui and Yugumo levels, and were wiped out by the counter-killing group.
As for the remaining team, they probably completed two tasks perfectly. Not only did they capture Yuki, but they also successfully attacked the Tianou Group's mecha troops.
Although this was just Lin Lan's simple speculation, and perhaps the order of time was different, no matter what, the final result made him very unhappy.
Yuki was not sent to Awazu Castle, but was really captured by the Nine Islands Alliance.
Seeing his ugly face, Jiang Jianmu and Dao Yerong were so nervous that they didn't dare to take a breath.
I don't know if it's their illusion, but they always feel that the oppression on the latent master is stronger now than it was ten years ago.
"You have done a great job. Inaba Island allows the Nine Islands League to come and leave whenever they want?"
"I'm going back to Xueying Town first. Remember, when you arrive in Xueying Town, you should pretend you don't recognize me when you see me."
After Lin Lan glanced at the two of them coldly, he used the power of his breath to gradually turn his body into black mist.
Before teleporting back to Akagi and Hayabusa, he finally said harsh words to the two of them:
"If there is any omission in the arrangement I just made...hehe, hehehe."
Without finishing his words, Lin Lan only left a string of sneers, turned into black mist, and disappeared in front of the two people who were sweating behind him.
