The fleet of Dayang Group and the team of Changhong Chamber of Commerce slowly slowed down in the outer space of Falling Dragon Star. In fact, their speed was not very high at first. When they entered the galaxy, the fleet began to slow down.
However, the scale of this "caravan" is a bit large, with thousands of large and small battleships and merchant ships.
The Changhong Chamber of Commerce, plus the team of Dayang Group, originally had nearly 900 warships and merchant ships. After some turmoil, only over 300 were left. It can be said that they suffered heavy losses.
However, everyone was besieged by nearly two thousand pirate warships. After fierce fighting, the remaining intact pirate warships were less than 800.
At this time, Bai Ye was standing with Fang Sihai, the representative of the Changhong Chamber of Commerce, on the Honghu, the flagship of the Changhong Chamber of Commerce. The top official of the Changhong Chamber of Commerce, Daxi Brukan, was standing behind Fang Sihai. Everyone
Let's look at the 'welcome team' ahead.
There are two welcoming fleets, one fleet has the emblem of the Golden Eagle Empire, and the other fleet has the emblem of Lou Fan Kingdom!
Both fleets have a size of more than 300 warships. These are unified standard warships, not the chaotic scenes like pirates' spaceship exhibitions.
Almost identical warships, according to war formations, were arranged hundreds of thousands of kilometers away in the starry sky. However, the distance between the two fleets was less than ten thousand miles.
"Trouble is coming to your door?!" Bai Ye looked at it with a solemn expression.
"No, it's a deal!" Fang Sihai said with a smile, "Neither the Golden Eagle Empire nor the Lou Fan Kingdom has their own masters of the Huanxu Realm to guard them. They are not pirates and they will run away if they can't be beaten. So they
I came here to trade."
Bai Ye frowned slightly: "Deal? So many battleships?"
"This is already considered rare. In our country, those countries that do not have masters in the realm of returning to the virtual world will usually adopt the method of hoarding warships.
They spent a lot of wealth to buy warships and train the army to ensure the stability of the country. This can also effectively prevent being exploited. Even if there are pirates or strong men who want to rob these countries, they will find these
The country is so poor that everyone who has money has bought warships."
white night:……
In this way, the countries around the black market are so miserable that they don't dare to save money. Thinking of this, Bai Ye had to sigh: "But they are like drinking poison to quench their thirst. Without money, they can't cultivate their own masters.
; Even if there are outstanding talents, they will leave here.
In the end, even if these countries can survive, they will not be able to raise their heads or walk with their heads held high in such a starry sky. What is the point of such a country?"
"But at least, they can protect countless people and give birth to hope." Fang Sihai's eyes were a little misty, "Actually, I am a member of the Golden Eagle Empire. But before I embarked on the path of spiritual practice, I was just an ordinary child from an ordinary family. I am the Golden Eagle.
The arrangement of the empire gave me enough time to grow and gave me the opportunity to perform well!"
Bai Ye turned to look at the other person, hesitated, and lowered his head slightly: "I'm sorry, I apologize for Meng Lang just now."
This time it was Fang Sihai's turn to be a little dazed.
Bai Ye turned to look at the two 'honor guards' in front and said slowly: "Our President Zhang of Dayang Group has said that the country's greatest responsibility is to nurture all people.
Nurturing includes shelter, education, providing survival guarantees, and providing guidance in pursuing dreams, etc.; but it is definitely not war. However, war is always unavoidable."
"Nurture all peoples..." Fang Sihai thought thoughtfully, looked around, and suddenly spoke again: "Do you know how long the Golden Eagle Empire has existed?"
Bai Ye was a little confused, why did he suddenly ask this? But he still said: "According to my investigation, it is about two thousand years. This is a very young country in the interstellar space."
Yes, two thousand years is a very young number in the interstellar world. It is generally believed that the theoretical lifespan of a practitioner in the Pure Yang realm is about 20,000 years; while the theoretical lifespan of a practitioner in the Huanxu realm is around 50,000 years.
Although there is always a discrepancy between theoretical lifespan and actual lifespan, many practitioners will die in battle, careless practice, poisoning, etc., and will be seriously injured. Fighting desperately will damage their lifespan, and there are countless secret techniques that require a lifespan. Therefore, many practitioners
The actual life span is often less than half of the theoretical life span, or even lower.
This mainly refers to those who die of old age and are already lucky.
And more practitioners died on the way to battle.
Cultivation is never a peaceful road, especially in the environment of the black market. If you don't fight, you won't have resources, you won't be able to make progress, and you may be bullied; if you fight, you have to take the initiative to face danger.
But no matter what, the lifespan of a cultivator, as long as he becomes a god, can easily last a thousand years. And the time of an empire is less than two thousand years. For cultivators, this time is really short. That's why Bai Ye said
A very 'young' country.
Well, Dayang Group is another matter.
But after hearing this, Fang Sihai smiled and shook his head slightly: "Actually, the history of the Golden Eagle Empire can be traced back to more than 100,000 years ago."
Bai Ye was interested, but also wary: What are you going to say?
However, there was still time at this time, so Bai Ye also followed the other party's wishes and spoke in surprise: "More than a hundred thousand years ago? However, I heard that the countries in this starry sky only appeared recently. It is said that there were people thousands of years ago.
After the Sufeng clan's pirate civilization was expelled, the place gradually prospered.
Where was the Golden Eagle Empire one hundred thousand years ago?"
"Right here!" Fang Sihai looked at the starry sky around him, his eyes a little deep and his tone a little ethereal, "About 200,000 years ago, we thrived here. Mobile version::
It was a difficult history that cannot be verified now. It is said that they were people who fled from the interior of the galaxy. At that time, we called ourselves the "Golden Eagle". According to research, "Golden Eagle" should be a noble title.
At that time, there was no black market in the Pingxing constellation here, and the black market in the Junjing constellation had just begun. At that time, the Sufeng clan was still relatively powerful, but it was already declining. They could not control the stars around them. But they would still continue to plunder.
But thanks to the characteristics of the Sufeng clan, they would only plunder and oppress, but not occupy. It was a difficult time, and beautiful boys and girls had to have their faces disfigured from childhood.
Whenever there was someone with good cultivation qualifications, we would hide them and find ways to send them away. At that time, we had only one direction, and that was the black market of Junjing Constellation, which was already beginning to take shape.
I was sent away when I was eight years old. I still remember that there were 427 of us in total, the oldest was 10 years old, and we were sold to the gladiatorial arena from the military well constellation.
We signed an agreement with the Arena, and the Arena is responsible for training us until we reach the realm of returning to the virtual world; before we reach the realm of returning to the virtual world, we need to work hard for the arena. After the realm of returning to the virtual world, the arena will return our freedom, but our future
One-third of the income must be handed over to the arena until the end of life.
The arena is cruel, but only cruelty can quickly create monks who have returned to the virtual realm. Only in this way can we come back to protect our hometown.
There is no use coming back until you reach the realm of returning to virtuality.
Three thousand years later, I am the only one left among the 427 people. The rest fell on the arena stage.
After breaking through the realm of returning to the void, the arena fulfilled its agreement, they returned my freedom, and I could finally take care of my nation in secret.
Now, without realizing it, three thousand years have passed."
As he said that, Fang Sihai suddenly opened his clothes, and Bai Ye shrank in pain. But he saw that Fang Sihai's chest was covered with criss-crossing scars. Many of these scars were black, purple, and flushed, which looked abnormal at first glance. There were even some wounds.
At first glance, it is a penetrating wound. Even the ability of the void-returning realm cannot repair these scars. You can imagine how painful and powerful it is.
Tucking up his clothes, Fang Sihai shrugged, with a very relaxed look on his face: "It takes three thousand years to break through to the realm of returning to the void. This is the price I pay. If my feeling is correct, I probably only have less than five hundred years left to live."
Bai Ye looked at the other person for a long time, took a deep breath, and the smile on his face finally faded, "There are so many wounds, doesn't it hurt?"
"It hurts?" Fang Sihai shook his head, "Physical pain is nothing. Once you get used to it, it becomes a part of life. If it doesn't hurt anymore, maybe you won't get used to it. Haha...
Did you know that those masters of the Huanxu Realm who were hired by the Golden Eagle Empire to protect the Golden Eagle Empire are actually the young men who were sent away back then."
Bai Ye thought for a while and asked: "Why just serve as a consultant? Instead of returning directly?"
"Because we cannot make it public. At least not yet. The Golden Eagle Empire is not strong enough, and our presence will shake the newly established national confidence. In any case, our identity is not glorious.
Not to mention that our lifespans are generally overdrawn. I have a relatively long lifespan. If one after another masters of the Huanxu realm die in just a few hundred years, it will shake the foundation of this country.
On the contrary, it is better to lurk in the dark and quietly help the country rise. After the Sufeng clan was eliminated a thousand years ago, we really had a little free sky to develop the country. But it is not enough, far from enough." : :
Bai Ye looked at Daxi Brukan standing behind Fang Sihai, full of doubts.
"There are several ethnic groups in the Golden Eagle Empire, and Daxi Brukan is also one of ours. He was sent to the arena by me later."
Bai Ye nodded, and then asked a question: "Why are you telling me this? These should be the top secrets of your Golden Eagle Empire. We have no such information from the more than 200,000 pirate prisoners."
Fang Sihai looked at Bai Ye and said word by word: "Because I see hope in you."
"Oh?" A mean smile appeared on Bai Ye's face again, "Although our Dayang Group has performed well, we dare not take the hope of becoming the Golden Eagle Empire!"
But deep down in his heart, Bai Ye had to sigh: I knew that trouble was coming.
