Pulling Xiaoyou back to his side, Feng Qi looked at the Elf King with a slight embarrassment and explained.
"One billion blood stones, or equivalent resources, how dare you speak."
The Elf King blew his beard and stared, obviously frightened by the amount Feng Qi said.
"Then how much can you offer?"
Facing Feng Qi's inquiry, the Elf King fell silent.
At this time, Feng Qi was basically certain that the Elf King must have a resource of one billion blood stones. After all, the size of the Elf City is so large, and its overall strength far exceeds that of humans in the Eastern Region. After so many years of accumulation, it has a reserve of 1 billion blood stones. Very reasonable.
Based on his understanding of the Elf King, this guy is preparing to forge a body of flesh and blood, which will require a huge expenditure of resources in the later stage, so he must be prepared.
His offer of one billion is not a big deal for a lion.
The calculated blood stone gap is 620 million, but there may be variables in the future.
The quotation of one billion is for insurance purposes and leaves room for negotiation.
If we can really get the help of a billion blood stones, in addition to the preparation of purchasing the black hole equipment, the development speed of Star City can also be significantly improved.
At this time, the Elf King looked hesitant and seemed to be struggling with his thoughts.
Feng Qi was able to analyze the Elf King's inner thoughts at this moment.
After checking the memory information, the Elf King has been able to confirm that the future he described is not a fiction. If the Eastern District rises in the future and builds the cultivation system Dawn City, the development potential of the human race in the Eastern District will be unlimited, and he will also be able to ensure his safety.
One billion blood stones may seem like a lot, but the cost of building Dawn City is obviously much more than one billion, and this alone is enough investment.
But one billion blood stones is not a small amount for the Elf City.
Given a billion blood stones, the development of the Elf City will be greatly affected, and even the speed at which the Elf King can conceive offspring will be affected. The improvement in the overall strength of the entire Elf City will almost stagnate in the future.
This is undoubtedly a big gamble.
I bet on my own life, and on the future development of the elves and the humans in the city.
While the Elf King was silent, Feng Qi didn't speak, quietly waiting for the Elf King to give a clear answer.
Half an hour later, the elf king, who was still hesitating, finally raised his head:
"To be honest, although the information you brought is trustworthy, it doesn't mean that you are trustworthy... But I don't seem to have any more choices, so I will take a gamble with you, my future and my future." For the future of Elf City, use your family wealth to support the rise of your human race in the eastern region."
"Uh-huh."
Before Feng Qi could answer, Xiaoyou standing aside nodded seriously with a serious expression, as if you had made the right choice.
Hearing the Elf King's promise, Feng Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, I heard the Elf King change his topic:
"But one billion blood stones is indeed too much. I calculated the development expenses of the Elf City and my expenses for breeding offspring... I can only give you 930 million blood stones. This is my limit. The rest I have hundreds of millions of blood stones in reserve to nip problems in the bud."
Hearing these words, Feng Qi couldn't help but be stunned.
Looking at the Elf King who said this with a serious expression, Feng Qi saw a trace of simplicity in its bargaining.
Perhaps because he had been in contact with humans since he was a young child, and humans had never allowed him to see the sinister side of people's hearts, the Elf King's thoughts seemed a bit too simple to him.
But when I think about it carefully, I think it makes perfect sense.
After several meetings and exchanges, he could feel the Elf King's wisdom, but he seemed a bit naive in many aspects of his behavior.
For example, he was willing to train An Mu to grow up, but he did not leave any backup plan to guard against possible betrayal by An Mu, putting himself in a dangerous situation.
Behind the Elf King's wisdom, there is a simple heart.
One billion blood stones can be chopped into 930 million. This bargaining technique will be deceived by profiteers in Destiny City and lead to bankruptcy.
Since the Elf King said so, Feng Qi was not polite.
As he just said, the investment given by Elf City to Star City will be doubled in the future.
Now is the early stage of Star City's development when resources are most scarce. The 930 million blood stones provided by Elf City can significantly alleviate Star City's urgent needs in the early stage.
He nodded and agreed:
"Elven King, I promise you will not regret what you have done today. Thank you very much."
…
After discussing the business, Feng Qi took Xiaoyou back to Star City.
Next, a dedicated team will be responsible for the connection between Elf City and Star City, including the subsequent resources shipped from Elf City, there will also be a dedicated team to inventory and organize.
What is certain now is that Elf City and Star City have reached an agreement to form an alliance.
At that time, he will hold a relevant meeting, take out the "Allied Code" formulated on the sacrifice line, and add the Elf City to the framework of the Mist Tribe and Silver Moon Tribe.
But the alliance between the Elf City and the human race is rather special.
This covenant is only temporary. In the future, Elf City will definitely be merged into Dawn City, and the residents of Elf City will also become residents of Dawn City.
Essentially, apart from the Elf King, the main residents of the Elf City are also humans.
The future Elf King will take the human race’s protective totem and root it in the western district of Dawn City and continue to protect the residents of Elf City.
At the same time, he will also arrange for a team to teach the cultivation techniques in advance to the residents of Elf City in the near future.
After the construction of the last sacrifice line in Dawn City was completed, a big problem arose during the relocation of the residents of Elf City to Dawn City.
The residents of Elf City have been unable to keep up with the development of Dawn City because they have only been exposed to the practice for a short period of time. They can only choose to use mental labor to assist the development of Dawn City.
The biggest problem faced by the residents of Elf City is that their growth system is relatively simple, with the Elf King as the only pillar.
The fall of the Elf King is like the fall of the sun in the human world, which has the same impact on the human cultivation system. All the hard work put in in the early stage will be in vain.
Although there is a high probability that the Elf King will not fall in this timeline, one of the flaws of the Elf growth system is that the growth of humans cannot keep up with the growth rate of the Elf. They will reach the end of their lives in just a few decades, and will eventually be assimilated by the Elf life and become themselves. Consciousness dies.
Practicing exercises is the only way to solve the elf growth system.
The cultivation techniques that are most suitable for the human body can continuously strengthen the physical quality of the cultivator. As long as one's own growth rate is faster than the growth rate of the elves, the problem of being assimilated by the elves will not exist.
The "Alliance Code" took a month to be revised. During this period, the elf city's envoys came to Star City through the space transmission channel and participated in the revision of the Ally Code. Finally, an alliance was reached to the satisfaction of both parties.
In the next few months, the human race began to work hard to build a stable space teleportation array connecting Star City and Elf City.
Compared with ordinary space transmission devices, stable space transmission arrays have significantly reduced energy consumption.
In the future, a large amount of resources will be transported from Elf City to Star City, and stable transmission channels are obviously the best choice.
To build this space teleportation array, Feng Qi set a five-year time limit and required that all problems must be overcome within five years to implement a stable space teleportation array.
Time flies like an arrow, and time flies like a shuttle.
Feng Qi is 72 years old this year.
Although his hair is gray, his body is very strong.
Now, he does not need to use genetic repair fluid to delay his aging.
The medical system of Star City in the previous timeline has been significantly strengthened. These data have been recorded in the faith database and have been brought back to reality for use in the upgrade of the modern medical system.
Feng Qi will undergo a physical examination every week and then adjust his physical condition according to the recommendations given by the medical team.
The practice of blood alchemy is also one of the main reasons why his physical fitness has been strengthened.
But Feng Qi didn't have much time to practice.
He still needs to take care of the early development of Star City and practice the spiritual immortality technique. He doesn't have much energy to practice the blood refining technique developed by the old fan.
Today, the development of Star City’s second key project has been put on the agenda.
That is the development of the faith growth system.
To this end, Star City's Propaganda Department has prepared a documentary about him and other content, which will be gradually promoted in the future to pave the way for the development of the faith growth system.
When Weiwei's team sets up the faith connection track, the development of the belief system will be officially launched.
…
On this day, Feng Qi was looking through the contents of the faith database in the training room.
Xiaoyou beside you is making a space bracelet with a serious expression.
Perhaps due to the influence of physical growth, it is difficult for Xiaoyou to stay focused for a long time. He always falls asleep after being busy for a period of time. After waking up, it is time for food, and then he continues to focus on making the space bracelet.
Time passes bit by bit.
At this moment, the nearby air suddenly twisted and changed, and Feng Qi suddenly opened his eyes at this moment, looking towards the direction of the fluctuation.
He saw a blue figure suddenly appear not far away, turning into a phantom and heading straight towards him.
The one who came to assassinate him was the blue-skinned killer whom he had not seen for a long time.
But before the blue-skinned killer could get close, a sharp sword energy shot up into the sky, and the sword passed through the blue-skinned figure in the electric light and stone fire, staring at the blue-skinned figure on the ground.
At the same time, Lu Yue's figure lurking in the darkness also appeared at this time.
He was wearing a set of white training clothes, and his white hair was tied back with a blue tie. His cold eyes hid a sharp sword intent, and his whole body revealed the arrogance of a swordsman. Jianlan The moment he took it out of its sheath, a whirlpool of sword energy appeared around him, and the sharp energy suddenly burst out.
Under the blockade of the sword energy, the blue-skinned killer could not break free no matter how hard he struggled.
"Stay or kill?"
"kill."
After hearing Feng Qi's answer, Lu Yue nodded, then raised his hand and pointed at Jianlan, and the sword energy burst out and smashed the blue-skinned killer's body into pieces.
After killing the blue-skinned killer, Lu Yue waved his hand to recall Jianlan into its sheath, took a step back and used the concealment technique to hide it invisible.
Feng Qi looked at the place where the blue-skinned killer had just appeared.
He was not surprised by the appearance of the blue-skinned killer.
Because he had already foreseen that the blue-skinned tribe would appear.
There are several main reasons why the blue-skinned tribe did not appear in the previous timelines.
In the early timeline, he often died young, and was already dead before the Blueskins showed up.
Secondly, in the timeline when he joined the Science and Technology Research Institute, the blue-skinned people never appeared.
Based on this information, Weiwei suspected that the black shadow in the Science and Technology Research Institute had mastered the instrument that blocked the blue-skin tribe's perception signal. This was the reason why he, who was on the villain line, was not chased by the blue-skin tribe in the Science and Technology Research Institute.
This guess has certain clues.
For example, early intelligence revealed that there was a laboratory built by the psionic tribe of the Black Mystic Faction underground in the "Twilight City", a small affiliated town outside the Old City, and that there were blue-skinned beings being studied in it.
It can be seen that the psychic tribe has known about the existence of the blue-skinned tribe for a long time.
Later, Weiwei also studied the blue-skinned beings that were captured alive, and developed a button-sized special frequency band shielding device based on the blue-skinned beings' ability to receive signals.
It was this device that prevented him from being troubled by the blue-skinned people in the previous timelines.
But there is no clear answer yet whether this device is effective or whether the blue-skinned people did not appear due to changes in the timeline.
This timeline, he tested that.
Facts have proved that as long as there is no shielding device, the blue-skin tribe will still come again.
The blue-skinned killer is the only creature beyond his understanding. It does not seem to be affected by the restart of time. The timing of sneak attack on him is different in each sacrifice line.
It is precisely because of their many characteristics that transcend common sense that he places the threat level of the blue-skinned tribe at a higher level than that of the psionic tribe.
The psionic tribe has been in contact with many timelines, and they still know some details.
But he knew very little about the blue-skinned tribe. He only learned from Mo's description that they were called closed beta creatures.
As for why Lu Yue was not allowed to live, Feng Qi felt that even if he were allowed to live, it would be meaningless.
In the early timeline, Weiwei studied blue-skinned creatures. Even if she captured this blue-skinned creature and took it to the Scarlet Research Institute, nothing could be learned.
With a wave of his hand, the space bracelet opened. Feng Qi took out a button-sized shielding device and placed it on his chest.
After the test was over, he wanted to live longer in this timeline, so there was no need to continue to have contact with the blue-skinned beings.
Existing intelligence can prove that the assassination intensity of the blue-skin tribe will become higher and higher as time goes by. If you want to survive to the future world after 1500, it is very necessary to reduce contact with the blue-skin tribe.
But deep down, Feng Qi was still very curious about what kind of racial force the Blue Skin Tribe was.
What is certain is that the blue-skin tribe's background will definitely surpass all the forces he currently knows, and they must have a large number of miraculous items in their hands.
However, the early performance of the blue-skin tribe seemed a bit stretched, which was completely inconsistent with their characteristics of possessing many miraculous items.
And the blue-skinned beings have never used miracle items.
This seems very unreasonable.
He analyzed that the blueskins had mastered a large number of miracles and it was not a random guess.
Much of the existing information on miraculous items is related to the Blue Skin Clan, and he and his old fans even have miraculous items snatched from the Blue Skin Clan.
For example, in every timeline, the miraculous blood stone will be intercepted in advance by old fans.
Another example is that the True God Bracelet, which is running on the spiritual sea of consciousness talent track in his main timeline, was also obtained from clues brought by the blue-skinned people.
Through this information, he deduced that the blue-skin tribe must have a large number of miraculous items in their hands.
But the problem is that the blueskins have never demonstrated the power of miracle items, and they will never participate in the resource competition between races in the future.
He felt that the blue-skinned people were incompatible with the world and their behavior was very different.
If this world is really a game, the blue-skinned people are like players who participate in the game process and have a collecting habit.
Satisfy your own happiness by collecting miracle items.
Maybe there is still such a possibility.
The blue-skinned tribe just did not appear in the future world after 1500 years, but in the longer future, they will become the pinnacle of powerful tribes and join the battlefield for hegemony among all races.
However, the current information cannot give an accurate answer to the specific truth.
Feng Qi did not think about this issue in detail.
At this moment, he turned his head and looked not far behind him, and asked softly:
"Lu Yue, I feel that there is something different in your sword power. It seems that you still did not listen to my advice."
Facing his inquiry, Lu Yue's figure appeared and nodded towards him:
"My sword power is about to reach its upper limit. Only the Demonic Sword True Solution can bring me a new improvement. I want to try to use it to break through my peak and let my sword power reach another peak.
"
After hearing these words, Feng Qi's expression became serious.
The true solution to the magic sword mentioned by Lu Yue is one of his innate abilities.
This innate ability is the talent of sword power and sword intention that he extracted from Jian Ji after killing him.
Lu Yue became his disciple more than ten years ago and established a connection with his spiritual sea of consciousness.
In this timeline, Lu Yue did not join Dawn Academy and become an instructor of Kendo, but chose to follow him to protect his safety.
Lu Yue once told him a few years ago that he felt that his sword power had reached a bottleneck and it was difficult to break through and grow.
He gave Lu Yue an idea on how to solve this problem.
That is to try to borrow the "True Explanation of the Demon Sword" in the belief talent library, try to understand Jian Ji's sword power and sword intention, and use this method to make a breakthrough.
Lu Yue did indeed do this.
Facts have proved that after Lu Yue came into contact with the Demonic Sword True Solution, his sword skills became faster and faster, and his own strength also improved significantly during the growth of his sword skills.
But he also clearly told Lu Yue not to touch the negative emotional power mobilized in the Demonic Sword True Solution.
Negative emotions are like Pandora's box, which will inevitably bring inevitable mental torture when opened.
The image of Jian Ji becoming neither human nor ghost in his later period, completely controlled by negative emotions, is still vivid in his mind. He doesn't want Lu Yue to become a demon who doesn't recognize his relatives and only has the desire to destroy in his mind.
In response to his instructions, Lu Yue made a guarantee at that time.
But just now when Lu Yue took action against the blue-skinned killer, he smelled a familiar scent.
There was actually a trace of negative emotion attached to Lu Yue's sword energy.
He had been fighting against negative emotions for a long time, and he noticed the emergence of this negative emotion power immediately.
This made him realize that Lu Yue still did not listen to his warning and was trying to control and use negative forces.
This didn't seem like a good sign to him.
The cultivation of negative emotions will affect Lu Yue's mind, and even the way he thinks about problems will gradually change under the erosion of negative emotions.
If he persists in going forward, Lu Yue will undoubtedly become the second Jian Ji controlled by negative emotions.
"Lu Yue, that's almost it. Don't go any further."
"I'll stop before I get carried away."
"At that time, you couldn't stop even if you wanted to."
With that said, Feng Qi stood up and came to Lu Yue, pressed his right hand heavily on Lu Yue's shoulder, brought his head closer and looked directly into Lu Yue's sharp eyes and said in a deep voice:
"You are my brother who has died in multiple timelines. I don't want you to embark on a road with no turning back."
"Aside from the rise of the human race, the only pursuit in my heart is to reach the peak of swordsmanship. Now there is an opportunity in front of me, and I... don't want to give up."
When he said these words, Lu Yue's tone changed from hesitant to firm.
Hearing these words, Feng Qi felt angry inside.
He had no right to control his natural abilities at the sacrifice line, otherwise he would really want to say something to Lu Yue:
"Disobedient? Then I won't borrow it anymore!"
But on the line of sacrifice, he could not stop Lu Yue's choice.
He understood very well what Lu Yue was thinking.
Through contact with multiple timelines, he knew that Lu Yue's character was very paranoid and the choices he made were difficult to change.
As Lu Yue said, he has only two pursuits in this life, one is the rise of the human race, and the other is the peak of swordsmanship.
To Lu Yue, the True Solution to the Demonic Sword was like a swordsman accidentally obtaining a peerless secret book of swordsmanship. Lu Yue obviously could not withstand this temptation.
This made Feng Qi suddenly feel regretful and recommended Lu Yue's innate ability Demonic Sword True Solution.
If Lu Yue eventually loses control due to his practice in controlling negative emotions and becomes a demon dominated by negative emotions, then Lu Yue will definitely threaten the development and safety of the human race. At that time, he will kill Lu Yue no matter what.
This is a future he never wants to see.
"Lu Yue, how much do you know about negative emotions?"
"All pain can give birth to negative emotions. This is an evil emotional force purely composed of pain, anger, and other extreme emotions."
Feng Qi nodded at this moment:
"You are right, but do you know how to make your negative emotions stronger?"
"Suffer the pain, feel the pain, and then absorb the power of negative emotions in the pain. In this way, the negative emotional power attached to the sword energy I wield will also increase, and the power of my sword energy will be significantly improved."
"Yes, this is the source of negative emotions. If you want to become stronger, you must seek pain, but this will make you gradually sink into pain."
"Your pursuit of the pinnacle of swordsmanship and your desire for negative emotions will gradually make you lose control."
"In order to pursue the power of swordsmanship and negative emotions, it is possible for you to do anything in the future, and you can even kill your own relatives for this. Maybe you think it is impossible now, but as you said, your future growth needs
Looking for pain, and then enduring the pain will give rise to negative emotions. Killing your loved ones will make you feel indescribable pain. This pain will also become the source of the growth of negative emotions in your body. At that time, you will no longer be the Lu I know.
Yue, but a living devil."
Just when Feng Qi was trying to persuade Lu Yue to let go, Xiaoyou's weak voice came from behind:
"Uncle Lu Yue, Xiaoyou is not your relative."
Feng Qi:......
Lu Yue:......
"I still want to try...if that day comes, don't hesitate to kill me."
Seeing the hesitation in Lu Yue's eyes turn into determination again, Feng Qi couldn't help but sigh.
He fully understands how terrifying the power of negative emotions is.
With the help of the narrator, he escaped from loss of control several times, but without the help of the narrator, Lu Yue would completely turn into a demon after losing control.
Feng Qi found that he was surrounded by stubborn guys, the type who would never look back until they hit the wall.
Lin Ran is one, and so is Lu Yue.
But when I think about it carefully, I realize that this is not the case for me. I have moved forward countless times without looking back for the dream of saving mankind.
Sure enough, what the ancestors of the human race said is right, birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
While sighing, he decided to pay attention to Lu Yue's situation at all times and found that something was wrong with Lu Yue's situation so that he could pull him back from the edge of the cliff in time.
He hoped that Lu Yue could get rid of the control of negative emotions and become a strong swordsman who could surpass Jian Ji.
But this possibility is difficult to achieve.
At this moment, Lu Yue suddenly looked at him and said:
"Brother Qi, I want to enter your ocean of negative emotions and experience the feeling of being surrounded and eroded by negative emotions."
Hearing these words, Feng Qi looked stunned, and then couldn't help but stare and said:
