Not long after, a group of people from Cathay also arrived.
Although he had just received some reports one after another, when he actually saw the opponent's lineup, Levi finally understood why Lunala was being extra cautious this time.
Because in addition to the fleet already parked in the port, this time the opponent also brought some flying war equipment called sky lanterns and sky boats.
Among them, sky lanterns look like oversized lanterns. They do not fly very fast and are mainly used to provide visibility.
Secondly, there will be some sniper riflemen on board, taking advantage of their commanding position to carry out some targeted sniper missions.
Tianzhou is equipped with a large number of sky lanterns on the warship, and uses its power to rise into the sky, making it an aerial fortress.
The number of soldiers and war equipment carried on it was obviously many times more than that of the Tianzhou.
But the weakness is also unavoidable, and that is speed. Even Tianzhou is slower than Sky Lantern.
This makes them absolutely better than Donna's Sky Slayer in terms of frontal combat effectiveness.
But if it is really a large-scale group battle, spending the same money, being more flexible and cheaper, the Sky Slayer will often have better overall performance than Tian Zhou.
But what Li Wei was more interested in was the energy that drove the sky lanterns and the sky boats.
It was a red bird that was only a few feet long - Yanghui Suzaku. It was said to have the bloodline of Suzaku, one of the three holy beasts of Cathay.
In the beginning, there was a legend among Sinian folk that there were five sacred beasts: green dragon, white tiger, red bird, Xuanwu and Qilin.
However, the dragons of Cathay and the God of Qilin, Coriel, are both gods in the true sense. Naturally, they are unwilling to be placed alongside the other three, let alone be called beasts, so now there are only three holy beasts left.
Coupled with a small amount of elemental crystals and magic circles, Yanghui Suzaku can often enable long-term combat, making sky lanterns, etc., put much less pressure on energy than similar war equipment.
If you can get them, can you find a way to arrange them on the Black Ark?
Soon Li Wei also saw the envoy from the Yuan family, Yuan Huan, who was obviously much more enthusiastic than before.
He immediately apologized hurriedly, saying that he had failed to bring the Immortal Palace to Li Wei at the agreed time.
On the one hand, it is because many of the God-chosen heroes of Cathay are also working hard in this direction, which has caused the price of Immortal Palace, which has been neglected for hundreds of years, to continue to change drastically in a short period of time.
On the other hand, it was also because the heroine of Bihai - Water God - Minglong - Yinyin had just defeated the Ni-Peng United Fleet about a week ago.
And with the assistance of Kirin God, Kiril, and many demigods under his command, he severely injured the storm god of the Nibon pantheon, Sumuwu Zun, the rain god, Yujiamei, and the god of cleansing, Yuyi Othime.
.
Therefore, at least in the next few years, the naval forces of various forces in Nepal, as well as many pirates, will have to live with their heads down.
For many wealthy Sinian businessmen along the coast, this is a good opportunity to go overseas to make money.
Faced with this situation, as a wealthy and aristocratic family, the Yuan family naturally refused to lag behind others.
They have recently opened up new trade routes and participated in shipping together. Therefore, they have been very busy these days, diverting a lot of manpower and energy, so Yuan Huan arrived a little late this time.
It is also interesting to say that Nibon is obviously an island country, but in the end, there has never been a real sea god.
Because a long time ago, the Dragon Gods of Cathay had already begun their layout.
They first joined forces to make a plan and directly killed the evil sea god Toyotamahiko at the beginning of Nibon.
After that, a series of effective plans were carried out. Whoever wanted to become the Poseidon would be dealt with first.
Since the Nibon God system is not truly unified, there are also many mountains in it, such as Tianjin God, Seventh Generation of Gods, Sanguizi, etc.
Therefore, the plans of the Dragon Gods went very smoothly. The other Nibon Gods who were not affected often had nothing to do with their own affairs and were concerned about it. They even fished in troubled waters and secretly committed crimes.
Among them, the one who is most likely to become the god of the sea is Suzhan Mingzun (Susano'o).
He was originally a medium-level god with great ambitions. He dreamed of becoming the Lord of the Sea and competing with Minglong-Yinyin.
But under the continuous attacks from the Dragon Gods, seeing that he could no longer maintain his position as a weak god, he could only honestly give up his dream and declare to the outside world that his priesthood was only Storm.
I don’t know how many years have passed. When the Nibon pantheon gradually became less chaotic and the gods realized that internal fighting was not the key, but resisting foreign enemies was the real important thing, it was already too late.
Under the attack of the Dragon Gods of Cathay, the Nibon pantheon was no longer able to give birth to a true Poseidon.
In this way, the Nibon God System will always have more than enough defense, but a serious lack of offense. The threat to the coastal areas of Cathay will naturally become much smaller.
But if you want to become a real Poseidon, you will definitely not be able to do it behind closed doors. Therefore, the Nibon gods can only bite the bullet and support many beings who may become Poseidon again and again, and frequently participate in naval battles.
For the Nipeng God System, this has become a very embarrassing situation. It cannot be defeated again and again, and it cannot be defeated without fighting.
Among the three Nibon gods who were defeated, Suzhan Mingzun, let alone Suzhan Mingzun, had been defeated by Minglong so many times that he probably had a psychological shadow.
That Rain God - Yujiamei, whose job is actually in charge of rivers, floods and rainwater, only has a weak divine power. Let her fight with Minglong, and she will naturally be crushed in all aspects.
Tamaki Otohime is even weaker, just a demigod.
Her vocations are purification, prophecy and witch, none of which can be compared with the ocean.
She has never been a warlike god, and she doesn't know how she was inspired to fight Minglong.
Li Wei thought about it and thought it might be related to her bloodline.
Legend has it that she has dragon blood, if she is a secretly born descendant between a certain Cathay Dragon God and a certain Nibon God.
Maybe the Nibon gods thought that Minglong would show mercy to her because of this?
Li Wei suddenly remembered the previous system announcement again. Did Tianjin Wolf Star also see this opportunity and decided to start civil strife?
After apologizing, Yuan Huan also said that he had prepared some apology, hoping to make up for his mistakes a little.
The first was the price of the Immortal Palace. He gave him the greatest discount within his authority, which was only 50,000 gold coins.
Although it is still very expensive, this fairy palace has been carefully selected by him and has been developed to a certain extent. It comes with a variety of god-given buildings and is extremely rich in resources.
With that said, he also took out a palm-sized, extremely exquisite miniature fairy palace that was even surrounded by some clouds and mist, and handed it to Li Wei.
Cathay Asgard (yellow level) (inactive)
Area: 1.2X1.5 kilometers (can be expanded)
Power source: Dragon Mystic Magic Circle (not activated)
There are currently God-given buildings (7/12), and the remaining available space is 5.
1. Chongyang Recruitment Institute: You can recruit peasant spearmen (level 1) (160 per week);
2. Shangyin Recruitment Ground: You can recruit peasant archers (level 1) (120 per week);
3. Yuyong Martial Arts Practice Station: You can recruit Yuyong Swordsmen and Yuyong Spearmen (Level 2) (90 per week), and use it as a daily martial arts practice place to accumulate combat experience;
4. Alchemy Tower: You can recruit Alchemy Masters (Level 4) (16 per week);
5. Oriental Bazaar: 10-25 units of spices are randomly produced every day, which can be used to prepare medicine or improve the flavor of food. After 100 days, it will be automatically destroyed (irreparable);
6. Sky Lantern Outpost: Up to 10 sky lanterns can be parked in special locations to temporarily serve as sentries and arrow towers;
7. Ya Tea Party: The chance of visiting the ownerless hero is slightly increased, and the attraction to a very small number of special beings is greatly increased (special tavern).
Other resource reserves: wood (10,000), stone (10,000)
Even though he had expected it in advance, Li Wei was still surprised by the other party's generosity, mainly because the weekly recruitment volume of these god-given buildings was a bit ridiculously small.
Based on Li Wei's current good relationship with the heavenly creatures, each town can only recruit a maximum of 20 wolf patrols per week, such as level 3 wolf patrols.
But this Yuyong martial arts performance field has doubled several times.
Alchemy masters are a special type of magic weapon. In addition to mastering the art of gold and fire, they can also produce various consumable elixirs, which can be used to temporarily strengthen attack, defense, or treatment on the battlefield.
Stronger alchemy masters can also create a variety of other props.
After using some special rare materials, they may even be able to create advanced elixirs that can permanently improve attributes.
Although most of them only take effect on units, and these increases often fail when promoted to heroic units, they are still popular among many Cathay heroes.
Apart from anything else, if we can discover a Tier 1 elite subordinate and let him take some high-level elixirs, his survivability and advancement opportunities on the battlefield will definitely be much better than those of ordinary Tier 1 soldiers.
.
But for them, having 3-5 Alchemy Masters under their control is already very good, and they will work hard to train these Alchemy Masters into heroic units.
But Li Wei can recruit 16 of this powerful unit every week. With this god-given building alone, Li Wei feels that even three to five thousand gold coins will not be able to stop him.
As for the recruitment numbers of the two types of first-level farmers, in comparison, Li Wei was a little surprised.
The Dragon Emperor of Cathay is named Shen Yang, and the Queen of the Moon is named Gui Yin. The god-given buildings that admire these two are definitely much better than the regular models.
Several other buildings also have their own characteristics.
The only drawback now may be that the area of this fairy palace is a little small, and there are strict restrictions on the number of god-given buildings that can be built.
But it's not a big problem. These buildings can be dismantled, and one thing about Cathay Palace is very special, that is, they can be spliced together like building blocks.
The quality of fairy palaces is roughly divided into four levels from high to low: heaven, earth, black and yellow. If there are enough yellow-level fairy palaces, they can also be combined into heaven-level fairy palaces.
It is said that the heavenly palace of the dragon gods of Cathay is made up of countless immortal palaces.
Looking at the current attitude of the Yuan family, or the Cathay forces behind it, towards themselves, it is obviously not difficult to acquire more immortal palaces as long as they can spend enough gold coins.
And being small also has the advantage of being very flexible.
Unlike Black Ark, once you go out, it is difficult to find a place to dock because there is no such a big port.
After looking back and forth several times, Li Wei returned the Immortal Palace to the other party first, because the incident happened suddenly and he did not have enough gold coins on hand.
He also had to seek support from Khalida, and also handed over to her a bunch of things he got from Bagh City, including scarab cultivation technology and snake women, etc.
Well, I also sent a message to Zhou Miyin, asking him to come with his Cathay guards.
Now that there will be a stable channel to recruit Sinian troops in the future, it is naturally best to leave it to him, who is from Sinian, to take direct command.
And after activating the Immortal Palace, it does need a confidant to guard it.
But Yuan Huan didn't take it, he just said there was no rush.
Because he came here not only to sell this fairy palace, but also to achieve a long-term and stable cooperation with Li Wei.
The various dinosaurs at Dread Rock are also very attractive to him who was born in Cathay.
Cathay is open to all rivers and has attracted many alien races to seek refuge. However, most of those alien races such as monkeys, pandas, tigers and arakkoa are still humanoid races, and there are very few war beasts.
They can create constructs such as warrior warriors and guards, but they are still somewhat inferior to dinosaurs in terms of flexibility and long-lasting combat. After all, most buff and healing spells are not suitable for constructs.
What's more, no one would think that their troops are too numerous or too diverse.
Li Wei naturally had no reason to refuse. Anyway, he would sell to anyone, and the other party was a super rich man. If a cooperation could be reached, he would be able to take over all the dinosaurs produced on the island.
Then came Yuan Huan’s second sincerity, Yanghui Suzaku and Yuehua Qingluan.
These two rare fifth-level bird types look like mini versions of the Phoenix, one red and one blue, with corresponding attributes of one yang and one yin.
But they are not a unit that directly participates in melee combat, because apart from their super speed, their attack, defense and life are completely worthless in many aspects, and they are very easy to kill.
But their value is astonishingly high.
The former feeds on fire element crystals and fire gems, and converts them into a steady stream of energy.
The most important energy sources of sky lanterns, sky boats and fairy palaces are actually them.
If the quantity is large enough, it can theoretically be used to drive Black Ark and so on.
The latter is said to be the descendant of Qingluan, the Queen of the Moon's pet. He descends to the mortal world on behalf of the Queen of the Moon, spreads the kindness of the Queen of the Moon, and protects the mortals of Cathay.
They have only one special skill, the moonlight halo. Centered on it, all friendly forces within a diameter of 15 meters will be slowly healed, restoring 1 health point every 3 seconds.
At first glance, this value seems very low, only 20 points per minute, but it is better because it has no consumption and is a passive skill.
A Yuehua Qingluan can cover at least twenty or thirty people. If a continuous battle can last for several hours, its healing will be astronomical, far better than that of an ordinary priest.
If we really want to talk about the battlefield value, Levi feels that it is not much inferior to the one he rides on Xiaolan.
And they can also be advanced. After advanced, the range and therapeutic effect of the moonlight halo will be further strengthened.
Now there are 5 of each kind here, 10 in total, which are worth at least a thousand gold coins, and they are still the kind that have a price but no market.
The other party was so polite, and Li Wei couldn't be stingy, so to show his sincerity, he first took out a special drawing.
"I heard that many alchemy masters in Weixilie Province like to study dimension stones and sulfur, so it should be of some value to them, right?"
Yuan Huan didn't pay much attention at first, just out of politeness, so he took it with both hands. After just a brief glance, his eyes immediately lit up.
"It turns out to be the construction blueprint for a dimensional stone furnace!"
That's right, what Li Wei took out was one of the trophies he got when he conquered Silver Peak.
He originally wanted to develop in the colonies. If he expanded eastward, in addition to the Ogre Kingdom, he would sooner or later have to deal with the Wesili Province.
At first, he was thinking of using this as a stepping stone to see if he could get in touch with the other party's boss, the god of forging and metal, Binlong Zhaoming.
But now that he has become the Lord of Dreadrock, this thing is of little use.
Because he will devote himself to the development of Fear Rock at least in the next few months, or even years.
Afterwards, we may join forces with Paradise Island and Khalida to deal with the evil water tribes in the surrounding area first, and then go after the Nibon or snake people to cause trouble.
After that, he might have ascended to the level of a god, and naturally he wouldn't particularly care about his mortal territory.
But to Yuan Huan, this drawing is definitely of great value.
Except for the Skaven, it seems that I have never heard of any race that can reliably mine warpstone. Those things are usually special materials that can only be found in demons or devils' lairs.
Even though the Yuan family works for Weixilie Province, the hostess there, Miaoying, doesn't like the Alchemy Master, but she is just running errands.
He might even have a chance to meet Binlong Zhaoming in person!
Looking at Yuan Huan who was full of joy, Li Wei couldn't help but smile: "Please take a rest at Fear Rock first. I will ask my subordinates to gather the dinosaurs first. The funding problem will be solved in the afternoon."
It was said to be a solution, but in fact it was nothing more than borrowing money from Khalida.
As the Lord of Lahmia, she is rich and generous, and has already become Li Wei's biggest creditor.
Yuan Huan naturally agreed, and after confirming some details about the transaction, he pondered for a moment and asked about the Long Yun element.
Li Wei immediately said bluntly that he did not have any more information for the time being. Summoning the form of a dragon might just be a simple coincidence.
Even the Messengers of Mercy can't figure it out, so maybe only the boss, the Watcher, in Heaven Mountain can understand the details.
But for Li Wei, this is a little far away, because that guy is mysterious all day long, and even the Mercy Messenger can't see him casually.
Yuan Huan sighed, and then settled for the next best thing. If Li Wei had more accurate information, he could contact them first.
All the dragon gods attach great importance to any information about the missing light dragon. This matter has even attracted the attention of their boss of the Yuan family, the god of storms - Biaolong - Miaoying.
Levi naturally agreed wholeheartedly and asked Alyssa to bring her in to arrange for the other party to rest. Levi also took the Immortal Palace and left, preparing to seize the time to create more special structures such as snake girls, dragon golems and death guards.
, give it to the other party.
Simple gold coins and the like are a bit of a disadvantage, and they don't see their own value.
But if you trade it with the Death Guard, you might be able to make a small profit there.
As for the Immortal Palace, Levi does not plan to activate it directly yet, because in the unactivated state, it is a palm-sized gadget that can be stored in a space ring and carried with you.
But once it is activated, its large size determines that it consumes a lot of energy, but its movement speed is not very fast.
Not to mention how much enemy attention he would attract and how many defenders he would need to send.
Therefore, Li Wei believes that the greatest significance of the Immortal Palace is that it serves as an aerial fortress, sentry or guard, and needs to cooperate with ground troops in combat.
Maybe, it will also get a chance to play in his next plan.
