Zong Ge was not optimistic about the prospects of Double Eye Island and raised three questions.
Hun Tong felt that he answered the question in a flawless manner, which was perfect.
But Zonge still refused in the end.
"What a pity, what a pity!" Hutong sighed.
He also knows that poaching people like this is risky. He may offend the arms dealer behind the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
But Huantong really lacks capable people.
Especially after the melee, the strength of the lord lineage suffered heavy losses.
The key is that Zong Ge's talents and abilities are really coveted.
The main target of Hutong's late-night recruitment this time has always been Zong Ge, and the dragon boy has always been secondary.
In Huantong's opinion, the lion flag is far superior to the dragon suit.
First, the lion flag belongs to the human race, and the dragon suit belongs to the dragon people. There are natural barriers between different races. Recruiting human elites will consolidate the double-eyed island more stably.
Secondly, Lion Banner has a more certain future than Dragon Server. Lion Banner’s fighting spirit already has a golden luster, and given time, he will definitely become a gold level player.
Third, the risk of offending arms dealers can be offset. Double Eye Island can become a location for arms supply, use interests to forge alliances, poach a Lion Flag, and perhaps become a communication bridge between the two parties.
Fourth, Long Fu is already the leader of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group. You can tell by looking at his position that he has a higher status in the hearts of the arms dealers. When Hutong starts poaching, the difficulty of poaching the boss is of course much higher than that of the second boss.
. The price paid will be much greater.
"It's a pity that he didn't agree."
"I shouldn't give up like this."
"Silver level items such as dragon suit and lion flag are quite rare."
"I still have to try my best."
"As long as they don't leave Eye Island, I have a chance."
"Wait until tomorrow, when I have harvested the treasure from the bottom of the sea, and then I will negotiate. Even if the price is doubled, it will be beneficial to me to get the lion flag!"
Huantong secretly made up his mind.
In this melee, he was really fed up with his men's incompetence.
Zonge returned to the captain's cabin, checked the surrounding environment, and then activated the communication device.
"Huntong has just arrived. He wants to recruit our entire group, and he wants to hire me with a lot of money." Zong Ge said calmly, "I learned about the devil's gold coin from him. It was it that caused your temporary rebellion!"
Hutong took the initiative to come to the door and delivered important information.
Only then did Zidi and Cangxu understand the key elements.
Zidi and the dragon boy are in the Deep Sea Monster Fish, while Cang Xu is alone in the captain's cabin of the Iron Patch.
After some discussion through the alchemy device, the three parties temporarily figured out the causes and consequences of the Devil's Gold Coin.
"No wonder the fishman Fang was so generous and took out 50,000 gold coins."
"The God of Integrity... Such a sacred weapon is really hard to guard against."
"No." The dragon boy shook his head, worried, "We have to face our own weaknesses. We have no defensive measures at all against this type of method."
Cang Xu immediately agreed: "This is indeed a major weakness of ours. In fact, the top levels of all forces, large and small, are basically equipped with preventive measures."
"Huntong was carrying a large amount of devil's gold coins, but he was able to recover quickly at the critical moment. This is also because his original preventive measures worked."
Zidi said: "We do have to make up for this weakness, but it's very difficult."
"Generally speaking, the preventive measures are to apply constant magic on the body."
"In our current situation, it is quite risky to go to any temple, church, etc."
The gods are high above.
As long as the temples and churches are successfully built, they will have statues of gods, filled with divine power and serving as the eyes and ears of God.
For survivors to enter these places, they place themselves under the eyes of the gods.
Although they have deception and camouflage skills and anti-reconnaissance and prophecy skills, they are still quite risky.
Basically, these churches and temples are dangerous places for survivors until they successfully atone for their sins and cleanse themselves. If you can't help it, don't go in.
Cangxu said: "It's not just magical magic that can prevent it, there are other methods."
"In fact, I think the most troublesome issue is not this."
"Don't forget that our main goal is to convey information and use the relationship with the Baizhen family to contact the higher levels of the empire."
"That's why we came to Double Eye Island."
"But now, there has been no reply from the shore."
"So many days have passed, this is not normal. What exactly happened? Did the Baizhen family receive the letter or reply? Did anyone find and intercept the letter?"
Cang Xu's words were immediately recognized by others.
Zong Ge said: "Currently, the Wisteria shop on the new island has been closed."
"Cangxu exposed the identity of the necromancer, and the channel of the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce also suffered."
Zidi said: "To be honest, if a shop is lost, then forget about it. The key is that the Shengming Empire is likely to conduct a follow-up investigation. Once we follow this clue to investigate in depth, will it involve us?"
"Will the blackmail letter be investigated?"
"Although the contents of the letter are all in the name of blackmail and do not indicate any of our identities, it is also an important clue."
"Not to mention anything else, using clues for divination will consume a lot of our strength. After all, every time we activate the anti-reconnaissance prophecy array, the price is very high."
Several people were silent for a while, and a sense of urgency arose in their hearts.
The main purpose of their coming to Double Eye Island is to send information.
The result was a failure.
Not only did I not receive a reply, it also caused more trouble.
The dragon boy said: "We must hurry up and send the second letter. We must find out the problem."
Cang Xu replied: "It's not easy to find. In fact, the message itself may be lost. This kind of alchemy device is not 100% reliable. Therefore, important information will be sent in at least three different ways.
Sent multiple times.”
"And because of our encryption, it is very possible that there is a slight error, and the alchemy device that receives the information will only get a bunch of gibberish."
"We are too far away from the mainland of Shengming Continent, and many communication devices are needed to continuously communicate. The problem can occur at any point, and it is difficult for us to find where the problem occurs."
Zidi added: "No matter what, I think the Ziteng Chamber of Commerce can still give it another try."
"Of course, it is impossible to use the communication device here on Double Eye Island anymore."
"The nearest one is located on Ice Sculpture Island."
"We can go there."
"Ice Sculpture Island? I know it." Even Zong Ge, who is not familiar with the sea, has heard of the reputation of Ice Sculpture Island.
Ice Sculpture Island is a super large island, and its level of development is far greater than that of Double Eye Island!
Even the Double Eye Island before the melee was absolutely inferior to the Ice Sculpture Island.
After all, Double Eye Island is just a coral ball cage tree. In the process of continuous settlement, it actually hinders a lot of development.
Because the coral ball tree itself is growing, no matter how good the infrastructure is, it will collapse if it continues for a period of time.
Ice Sculpture Island is a normal island, and the island has a large population, and the time it takes to operate and reproduce is much longer than that of Double Eye Island.
It has been more than ten years since Duanyan Island fell into Hutong's hands.
Ice Sculpture Island was settled more than a thousand years ago.
However, at the beginning, the races that settled on the island were divided into different categories, and the races were mixed. The ice sculpture island itself was very rich in product resources, which were very valuable on the vast sea.
In the following decades, groups of snow elves continued to migrate over.
At that time, the barbarian tribes launched a war on the Frost Continent. The Snow Elf tribes were defeated by the soldiers and dispersed one after another. Many of the tribes that could escape chose to live in the Ice Sculpture Island.
Hundreds of years later, the country of snow elves was established on the ice sculpture island.
At the beginning, the country of snow elves only occupied a small part of the island.
Up to now, the entire Ice Sculpture Island is the territory of the Snow Elves, and they have become a quite powerful maritime kingdom!
Zidi knew that many young dragon people had lost their memory, so she took the initiative to introduce: "Snow elves are a type of elves, and the ice and snow are the most suitable environment for them to live in."
"The elves are different from us humans. They have long lifespans and are good at magic, music, etc."
"The snow elves on the Ice Sculpture Island are good at magic and even better at alchemy."
"The alchemy puppets they made were made using ice carving technology. They are cheap and beautiful, and are a very famous specialty."
"Not just alchemy puppets, they also create ice ships, ice fortresses, etc., which are especially suitable for fighting in cold environments."
The dragon boy's eyes lit up: "Perhaps, we can buy some magic ships there."
"We lack mana ships that can be unveiled publicly."
"If there is a silver-level magic ship, we can ensure the safety of the golden cannon and let it fully exert its true attack power."
"It's not like the previous two times, where the enemy fired one shot and then took it away."
Zidi nodded: "We are very rich now!"
"It is completely feasible to buy some mana ships."
"In fact, we need an alchemist with real strength!"
When Zidi said this, she winked at the dragon boy.
Zong Ge didn't know about the blood core and related plans, and felt a little strange being kept in the dark.
Cang Xu said: "That's right."
"Although we have basic maintenance personnel, we can only repair ordinary sea-going ships."
"It's difficult to repair the alchemy array with these alchemy puppets."
"The Deep Sea Monster Fish was hit by the Ningguang main gun and needs to be repaired. The Iron Pimple has experienced a melee and needs to be repaired."
"We have already lost a lot of alchemy puppets."
"It's okay to say that the Prospector doesn't have much maintenance value. But the Deep Sea Salvator, the Sword Pavilion Guardian, and the damaged and useless Yellow Crab Alchemist all need alchemists to repair them."
"Some important alchemy formations require alchemists to lay them out."
This sentence is the key point.
It is difficult to lay down the blood vein purification array by relying solely on the beards and purple stems.
Zidi and Cangxu's talents are not very good.
Zidi is good at medicine, and Cangxu has been a noble housekeeper for many years and has a lot of administrative experience.
And to train an alchemist, the price is very high.
In the Alchemy Academy of Crown City, you have to read and absorb at least hundreds of introductory alchemy books before you have some foundation in alchemy.
