Chapter 93: Acceptance Does Not Mean Sincere Help

Yes.

Another place in the Negan Empire that is most disliked by the black men of the Takagi Kingdom is this. The black men never think that women can become the mainstay of the country, and even think that a society dominated by women is a symbol of a failed country. .

However, it was such a country with a strong matriarchal society. As a result, the Takagi Kingdom was beaten to the point of begging for mercy and took the initiative to reprocess the crown that it carefully crafted as the first trophy presented.

Not convinced.

Unwilling to do so.

Unwilling.

These three things became the creed that the Takagi Kingdom did not give up even if it became a slave state of the Akitsu Empire. Therefore, this also caused the Akitsu Empire to squeeze it deeper and deeper day by day.

The pig-headed men of the Akitsu Empire are not fools. They know that the Takagi Kingdom only surrenders on the surface, but has strong thoughts of resistance in their hearts.

After all, once the control of the Takagi Kingdom is relaxed, it means that the Takagi Kingdom will definitely resist with force.

Therefore, under the rule of the Akitsu Empire, the Takagi Kingdom even had to treat rice as military rations and hand it over to the Akitsu Empire in order to weaken or even restrict it as much as possible.

As a result, the economy of the Takagi Kingdom was naturally unable to improve, let alone improve the overall national strength based on the economy.

As a result, the poor and weak Takagi Kingdom not only had no major development for a long time, but also caused the pace of modernization to be arduous.

The most basic thing about modernization is economic improvement, and how can the economy be improved?

industry.

Modern industry is the best answer.

And how do we want to accomplish modern industry?

Develop modern agriculture.

This is the path the Negan Empire has chosen.

Agricultural output is extracted through scissors and turned into profits for investment in industrial development, which ultimately enables work to feed back the development of agriculture, thereby continuously accumulating national funds and enhancing the strength of one's own country.

Of course, this is not how a family like Mona's family, which ostensibly runs a hotel but is actually engaged in mercenary business abroad, makes a fortune. After all, everyone knows that it is often the easiest way to make money by walking on the tightrope.

Even though not everyone can do this mercenary job.

There are also considerable risks.

For this reason, employees engaged in such an industry without exception have a rule of not explaining their behavior.

At least two children must be left behind to be allowed to perform the first mission.

So everyone can think of one thing. Female mercenaries like Mona who don't take any protection at all and don't mind whether they get pregnant are not an isolated case.

What's more, Mona's family's main business is in the occupied areas of the Krurod Empire, dealing with black-haired kobolds and pig-headed men.

Such a business, at least on Mona's side, has only heard of her family making such money. After all, black-haired kobolds are bloodthirsty, and pig-headed men are a group of people who don't think it is a crime to recruit women from their own country for physical comfort.

Perhaps the Akitsu Empire's road to becoming a strong nation was based on the fact that its male subjects went abroad to sell drugs and its female subjects opened a wide range of custom shops.

In short, on the second day, after Enzo left the room and continued to entertain the black hairs, Mona carefully read the second batch of information sent by the black hairs.

In particular, the black-haired people are obviously not born with magical power, but they have no information that they are affected by global mind control rays for the time being.

I have to say that the Takagi Kingdom is really sophisticated and insidious.

In order to reduce the pressure on the Akitsu Empire, the Takagi Kingdom successfully stole the neurotoxin preparation sample of the Orchid Republic and presented it to the pig-headed man of the Akitsu Empire. The pig-headed man successfully copied the formula through reverse engineering and used Injection for the whole population.

It's just a pity that even so, the Takagi Kingdom still actively participated in the Akitsu Empire's military operation to invade the territory of the Japanese and Mai people. The king of the Takagi Kingdom, no, the entire royal family is a puppet of the Akitsu Empire, and the suffering of the people is not worth mentioning in their eyes.

What's more, invading the territory of the Japanese and Mai people will also help the Takagi Kingdom seize more resources, as well as industrial and agricultural technologies.

In other words, the Takagi Kingdom has never thought about how to face this global mind control catastrophe from top to bottom. On the contrary, they followed the Akijin Empire, which was also not under control but had great connections with the demons, in the war of aggression.

Furthermore, the Akitsu Empire must have become a friend of the demons at some point, and took the initiative to lead the cannon fodder to annihilate the demons' greatest nemesis - the Rimai people who have absolute immunity to mind control.

However, according to some other information provided by Mona, Orchid Republic's neurotoxin preparation has entered the third generation of research and development. The theft of the first generation has long aroused the vigilance of the Orchid Republic, and even actively cooperated with the Negan Empire in this regard. Therefore, the second-generation neurotoxin preparations currently used by the Orchid Republic are not toxin preparations that are simply prepared by advance poisons and mixed with certain stable neutralizers and buffer drugs, but are special drugs that incorporate certain synthetic magic potions. The first generation has certain addictive properties, which makes the problem of possible addiction in users much better.

Of course, Mona very much doubted that such addiction would make the originally extreme-minded black-haired people even more bloodthirsty.

After all, the black-haired kobolds have a natural contempt for the intelligent races that have no night vision and are like blind people in the dark (in fact, the Eldar are also their contempt, but they have obvious weaknesses in magic). Therefore, in the past few hundred years, the black-haired kobolds completely wiped out the primitive native human tribes of an entire continent, so that if there was no protection from the Negan Empire, the last few hundred humans on this continent would not even have the chance to escape alive to settle in other continents.

At the same time, she looked at the 20mm semi-automatic anti-tank gun that the black-haired kobold named Nagamasa handed to Enzo, and then Enzo handed it to her.

Heavy.

This was her first impression.

But without this weight, which shooter can easily bear the impact of firing 20×110mm caseless shells? Too light weapons will cause more serious injuries to shooters.

And there is also a voice in the Negan Empire saying that similar firearms should be developed.

But this is unlikely.

The citizens of the Negan Empire are not incapable of magic. Do they still need guns and ammunition with magic power?

Although in reality, the regular army of the Negan Empire has a variety of guns and weapons; but this is just a historical tradition that adds icing on the cake, in order to make up for the weakness of many people in the past Negan Empire who did not know magic. The current Negan Empire has experienced the rule of two generations of queens, and people who do not know magic have long ceased to exist. In addition to the law that also allows polygamy, Mona herself wants to know who in the Negan Empire really does not know magic now.

In general, regarding this 20mm semi-automatic anti-tank gun, even if Mona is interested, she knows electric shock spells, and using guns and weapons is an extra burden for herself.

As for Enzo... He knows dark spells. So he is equipped with a pistol and a waist knife for self-defense outside at most. He does not need a rifle or something.

Enzo can manipulate his shadow to create a shadow clone, and can suddenly open a shadow portal for rapid transfer.

So this is an important reason why Mona is very happy to have offspring with him.

Their eldest daughter, second daughter, and fourth son also have this ability. Especially the eldest daughter, she can already hold the sickle and quickly clone like her father, and even let her shadow clone hide in certain objects for secret surveillance, or as a life-saving amulet for emergency escape when her original body is hit by a fatal blow.

No matter what, she took the gun.

At worst, she can sell it to the Orchid Republic in the north. They really need this weapon as an enhanced anti-material, or a necessary weapon for shooting light armor. After all, the Orchid Republic in the north is not a primitive tribal country, but a country that has completed modernization. It also has a dedicated 20×110mm witch-hunting shellless shell to kill certain spell users.
