Sean met alone with Marshal Ericson, the supreme military commander of the Donau Plain Defense Area, and Woody, the commander of the Explorer Fleet.
"You two came together. There must be something difficult to resolve in the south of the East China Sea." Sean asked straight to the point.
Woody sincerely complimented: "Nothing can be hidden from my lord. We do have a rather difficult matter right now. If it is not handled well, it will affect the relationship between the territory and the Bronze Dragon Clan, the largest force in the East African Islands.
I also want to discuss it with the lord and see how to deal with it."
"Don't rush in and let me guess." Sean asked with a smile, "You're not talking about the theft of the dragon egg, are you?"
"The lord knows things like a god." Woody said with a look of surprise on his face, "Yes, that's it. Does the lord already know about this?"
"It's hard not to know. This matter is being circulated in the taverns and alleys of New Blissant. Even if you don't take the initiative to come to me, when I take the time to come, I will come to you to understand the whole story of this matter. The details.
Tell me, what's going on? There are too many rumors circulating on the streets, and we can't tell whether they are true or false. Could it be that the three stolen dragon eggs have really fallen into our hands? That's a hot potato!"
"This incident is a complete coincidence. A pirate ship named Black Shark sank while avoiding a storm. The wreckage was accidentally hit by the vortex and rolled into the lair of a bronze dragon. This pirate ship
The boatswain was lucky enough to survive.
After escaping death, he sold the lair as a treasure to other pirate teams.
Those greedy people heard that there was a pile of ready-made treasure waiting for them, and they did not care about the consequences.
Several pirate ships were used to lure away the dragon guarding the nest, and the rest took the opportunity to loot the dragon's lair, including three hatching dragon eggs.
This completely angered the bronze dragon clan. They were chasing the egg thieves everywhere in the East China Sea to trace the whereabouts of the dragon eggs. Even our fleet was affected by Chiyu and was attacked many times." Woody explained concisely and comprehensively.
Let’s talk about the whole thing,
"These guys are still looking for money rather than their lives as always." Sean did not give a clear answer, but asked, "This matter is between the pirates and the dragons, how are they involved?
Are they on us? Could it be that those three hot potatoes have fallen into your hands?"
"Not yet, but it's almost there. After all, in the entire East China Sea, we are the only ones who can eat these three dragon eggs. That group of pirates has already started to try to contact us and want to sell these three dragon eggs to us.
"
Woody nodded and expressed their troubles, "We are a little undecided here. We don't know whether we should eat it, and if we choose to eat it, at what price. After all, this kind of product is unprecedented.
, we alone cannot tap out its maximum value."
"From what you say, your preference is to eat these three dragon eggs?"
"Yes, the advantage of the giant dragons in the air is too great. Ordinary artillery can't pose a threat to them at all. We can only rely on anti-aircraft guns and giant eagles for air interception. However, the giant eagles can only contain them, and frontal combat is very difficult.
It is easy to be suppressed by the dragons. In the past three years, 60% of our battleship losses were destroyed by them. If we can tame our own dragons, it would be of great significance, but this matter requires other relevant departments.
cooperation.”
When Woody talks about the dragon, his words are full of powerlessness.
Their new warships, which were originally invincible across the sea, were obviously somewhat powerless against legendary creatures like giant dragons.
In particular, the Bronze Bureau Dragon is capable of living on land, sea and air, diving in gaps and lurking in the deep sea, and is proficient in everything.
Unless the warships group together to form a fire suppression, one-on-one, no warship except the Dragon Roar can be an opponent of those giant dragons.
This resulted in them being tied up in the East China Sea, severely limiting their development speed.
"It's a good idea, but it's not realistic. As far as I know, the growth cycle of a dragon is very long. Even with human intervention, it would take less than a few decades for a dragon to grow from an egg to a usable dragon.
Let alone cultivating them on a large scale, I'm afraid it will take several centuries. We don't have that much time to wait for them to grow up. This is one of them.
Secondly, by doing so, we are completely putting ourselves on the opposite side of the Bronze Dragon Clan, and it will be difficult for both sides to have room for relaxation."
Sean rejected Marshal Woody's proposal and put forward another plan, "So, we have a better option, send troops to destroy the pirates, snatch the three dragon eggs, and fight against the bronze dragon clan in an all-round way."
A gift for direct contact, even if we do not sign an alliance with them, we must reach a consensus on normal business and trade."
"How's it going? Marshal Woody, have you given up now? I've told you a long time ago that your proposal won't work. Temporary compromise is the most correct choice." Marshal Ericson, who had been listening in, couldn't bear it.
Zhu showed a victorious smile.
"So, you two have already thought of the second plan?" Sean's eyes flicked back and forth between the two marshals. Listening to what they meant, there was a story inside.
"Yes." Marshal Ericson nodded and admitted, "Before coming here, the two of us had an in-depth discussion. I proposed a similar plan at that time, but Marshal Woody was greedy for the dragon and didn't want to do it so easily.
Let it go and go to the lord for a final try. Now I have completely given up."
"The greedy dragon's combat power is only one aspect." Marshal Woody smiled wryly and spread his hands. "According to my understanding of those dragons, they are really not easy to deal with. They are afraid that if we bring the dragon eggs, they will
Not only will they not accept our good intentions, but they will regard us as an accomplice of the egg thief, which will have the opposite effect."
"Even giant dragons cannot be generalized. The characters of different races are also different. If the opponent is the green dragon clan, this situation is indeed possible. If it is the bronze dragon clan, this situation is very small.
But we must be careful. It is very necessary to show off our muscles when dealing with such powerful legendary creatures. Only beings who are equally powerful as them can communicate and cooperate with them on an equal footing."
Sean pondered for a moment and gave further advice, "Let's do this. After you go back, you can further locate the traces of those egg thieves. It is best to get the dragon eggs in our hands first, and fight with the bronze dragon.
The matters of meeting and negotiating between the clans will be left to me to handle personally."
"The lord took action personally, so there won't be any problems with this matter." Woody was overjoyed. He didn't expect Sean to take this matter so seriously.
"There is no such thing as 100% in this world." Sean remained humble as always.
"Then we won't waste your lord's precious time. Let's go back and prepare first. If there is any news, we will report it to your lord as soon as possible."
"Then I won't keep you."
The two marshals came and left in a hurry, returning to their base and fleet, preparing to catch this bold pirate. You can imagine the fate that awaits them.
They will become political victims of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Eternal Night Army Leader and the Bronze Dragon Clan.
The two marshals' separate requests for an audience are not unique.
Basically, before returning, he more or less took time to interview the leaders of the Yongye Army alone.
On the one hand, some actual local or departmental issues involving confidentiality and internal disputes within the military leadership are not suitable for collective discussion in public and can only be reported individually in private.
On the other hand, it is to reconnect with the relationship and further consolidate his position. After all, he has been absent from the five-year construction of the Yongye Army, and the old friends have become a bit more mature, not to mention the new faces.
The high-level meeting of the Yongye Army Leader had just ended, and Sean rushed to Shadow City without stopping, preparing to attend another special meeting.
If it is said that the high-level meeting of the Yongye Army Leader will directly affect the future of the entire Ashan Continent.
This special meeting held in Shadow City is related to the future of the entire Ashan continent, because this meeting is about planes, especially the annexation of Abigail's plane.
Although Sean mentioned the matter of Abigail's plane at the high-level meeting, he used the Spring and Autumn writing style to brush it off in one stroke. They only knew that Sean had obtained bad benefits in another plane and had an affair with a powerful person.
existed and established a friendly alliance.
However, Sean did not tell everything about the imminent collapse of that plane and his plan to annex it.
Because their work does not involve this aspect, they only need to know the general direction. If they know too much about the rest, not only will they not provide help, but they will increase the risk of leaks.
Although the surface of Shadow City was once occupied by the Undead Empire, the Yongye Army Leader did a good job in defense and blocked all access to the ground in advance.
Therefore, until its collapse, the Undead Empire did not know that there was the enemy's most advanced and core magic research center under its territory.
Ever since I discovered Shadow City and the space cracks here.
The Yongye Army Leader's research on the planes has been moved here one after another.
At the same time, an unprecedented magical project has also entered construction status - a magic subway that is 2,200 kilometers long and completely buried tens of meters underground.
Before his soul was exiled, Sean had already informed Sophia Liya and personally led her to visit here, knowing the importance of research here.
The output here cannot be measured in material terms.
Therefore, after Sophia Liya came to power, the situation faced by the leader of the Yongye Army was extremely difficult, and he only temporarily reduced his investment in this area, but it did not completely stop it.
After six years of investment, this super magic subway was officially opened to traffic a year ago.
This magic subway will have an absolutely earth-shaking impact on Shadow City.
It allowed them to escape from the closed situation that had lasted for four centuries. All kinds of originally scarce materials were continuously transported from the Yongye Army through this artery.
This brand new nutrition line even caused their population to experience an unprecedented explosion - after all, they were previously limited by the limited output of Shadow City and had to adopt relatively strict family planning.
Among them, the one with the greatest population explosion is undoubtedly the myconid.
After all, this kind of fantasy species is not a plant in the real sense. It can be planted in batches through planting.
Their uncontested character and unique abilities earned Sean's attention, and he was inclined to adopt policies.
Along the magic subway line of more than two thousand kilometers, there is a new underground village every certain distance, and the main residents are myconids.
The biggest result of the mushroom population explosion was that a large number of fungi and mushrooms were added as home-cooked vegetables to the Yong Ye army leader's sensitive dining table.
In addition, myconids also serve as guardians and maintainers of the magic subway.
Overall, Sean has basically fulfilled his promise to the residents of Shadow City, allowing both parties to achieve mutual benefit and symbiosis.
This naturally made his reputation reach its peak here.
After a little work, Sean gained nearly 200,000 more faiths.
Ninety-nine percent of these beliefs come from simple-minded myconids.
However, the main reason why they believed in Sean was not that Sean allowed their tribe to expand rapidly and their population to expand rapidly, but that the consciousness space created by the magic subway allowed all myconids to be in a large network and realize the human
It is a great dream that everyone has access to the Internet and that everyone can be a network designer.
As the creator of this dream, what is Sean if he is not a god?
The re-planned Shadow City is also different from what it used to be.
Although it is still damp, it is not dark, and every corner is shrouded in soft magical light.
Each passage is also neatly planned, very much like the leader of the Yongye Army.
If you have a three-dimensional view of Shadow City, you will find that the entire city appears as a huge inverted semi-ellipse, surrounded by the unstable space gate in the middle.
"After our repeated tests over the past nine years, as well as the plane information recently compiled by the Lord, this space gate is not a plane gate in the true sense, at least not one that connects two or even multiple planes.
The gate of the plane is a singularity in our plane, a space shortcut formed by folding with each other, so most of the scenes we see from it are from our plane itself."
The first project of the special plane meeting was for Sean to listen to the summary report of the Yongye Army's special plane research group on the past ten years of research. The person who made this report was none other than Sean's nominal great-great-grandmother.
, the ancestor of the Andis people.
"Is there any strong basis?" Sean's expression remained unchanged, and he was not surprised by this conclusion.
"There are two strong evidences. When you look at these memory images, do you feel familiar?" The ancestor directly played several memory images to Sean.
"This is the Andis Mountains, this is the Kentana Icefield... What does our ancestor mean, is that the other end of this space crack has been wandering in our plane?" Sean finally showed a surprised look.
