Pingxi City.Inside the tallest stone building in the middle of town.More than twenty spirits are gathering to discuss how to carry out the orders passed down from Blood Scorpion City."
Shipbuilding again?
This is the first time!
The trees around Pingxi City are almost cut down by us!
”A spirit grumbled dissatisfiedly.As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the echo of many spirits."
That's it!
Besides, how can we have so many craftsmen, if we are busy building ships every day, we don't have to do anything else!
”"The master doesn't know what to think, why do you keep pampering that guy Orn?""
That's right, the tribe spent so much manpower and material resources to form a fleet twice, but the result?
I didn't see the slightest gain, but I lost a lot!
”"Anyway, I don't support it, if Orn wants to build a ship, he will raise materials by himself and let his subordinates do it!"
The spirits grumbled.Only a few of the four or five spirits sat in the corner with black faces, silent.These spirits are all expansionists, and they are naturally very annoyed by the complaints of other spirits.But they didn't have the confidence to refute it.After all, this is already the second time.The first time the fleet was destroyed in a storm.The second flotilla disappeared without a trace, and there is no sign of returning.Two consecutive defeats have already caused Orn's prestige in the tribe to fall to the valley, and the expansionists have fallen into a very embarrassing situation!
And because of this.When Orn proposed to form a new fleet to search for the missing ships, many people jumped out to oppose it.Even quite a few of the expansionists remained silent.No way.The blow from the first two failures was too great!
The two times totaled nearly thirty warships, sixty thousand ninth-order warriors, and more than forty guardian spirits!
As strong as the Blood Scorpion Tribe, this kind of loss can be called a nerve-wracking loss!
No one knows if the third voyage will have the same result.The raucous whining continues.It lasted for more than ten minutes before a blue-skinned and red-eyed humanoid spirit sitting at the top coughed.The noise at the scene suddenly fell silent.All the spirits kept silent, looking at the spirits above them.Seeing this, the green ghost's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and then he said slowly: "Since it is the order of the controller, of course we still have to carry it out!"
”Seeing that some spirits showed a look of indignation and wanted to speak, the green ghost immediately raised his hand to stop the other party, and then continued unhurriedly: "But the controller also said that the purpose of building a ship is to search for the whereabouts of the missing fleet, in this case, there is no need for too many ships at all, as long as there are seven or eight ships, it is enough!"
”"Spread it evenly, there will be only one share of one in our Pingxi City, and some craftsmen will be transferred from the city, and it should take about a month."
As soon as these words came out, the dissatisfied look on the faces of the spirits present suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a playful smile.Many of the spirits also cast teasing glances at a few expansionists in the corner.It is not easy to build a warship, but if it is only one, Pingxi City can still accept it.However, in this case, the expansionists' plans to rebuild the fleet will be frustrated.C0m noticed the gaze of the spirits around him, and the faces of several members of the expansionist faction became more and more gloomy, and they snorted coldly and did not answer.The green ghost didn't care, but showed a faint smile.Pingxi City is one of the turf of conservatives.About seventy percent of the guardians stationed in this town are conservatives.The remaining neutrals and expansionists split even.Because of this, the expansionists can't afford to make any waves in Pingxi City on weekdays.Not to mention the fact that the fleet has disappeared and the expansionists have suffered a heavy blow!"
If he knew each other, Orn should have retracted his head and done nothing, so that he might be able to stay in the position of the head man for a few more years, but he still thought about forming a new fleet, called searching, but in fact secretly continued the expedition, which was really stupid!
It looks like it won't be long before the head man should be replaced with a new one!
The green ghost sneered secretly in his heart.He took a clear stand and did not support the expedition!
How can an expedition be so easy?
First of all, the formation of the fleet is a problem.The Blood Scorpion Tribe has been studying shipbuilding technology for decades, and to this day, it takes a month to build a warship!
And the construction of each warship requires a lot of craftsmen and labor!
It's expensive!
And even if you end up spending a lot of manpower and material resources and successfully assembling a fleet, you may sink in a sudden storm before you reach your destination!
A guardian spirit as strong as a king-level pinnacle level will have a hard time protecting all ships in a storm!
Take a step back.Even if the fleet sailed smoothly and successfully reached the target island.But the number of people in the fleet is limited, and with only 20,000 or 30,000 troops, how easy is it to conquer an island?
An island of the size of Giant Whale Island has a population of 8 or 900,000 people.The number of fighters is at least more than 300,000!
With a mere 20,000 or 30,000 troops—even if they were all ninth-order elite warriors—it was almost impossible to bulldoze the entire island!
And if you want to transport soldiers from the mainland.Then the pressure of troop transportation and logistics will become extremely heavy again!
In the end, if you can defeat the Giant Whale Island, everyone will naturally be happy, but if it fails, or if it drags on for too long, the blood scorpion tribe will be hurt even if it is not vigorous!
Maybe it's going to go down!
This is undoubtedly an unacceptable thing for the high-ranking and guardian spirits of the Earth Spirit Clan, who are now enjoying the rich life of the tribe.In addition to these, there may be other accidents that lead to failure in the expedition.The second fleet, for example, has disappeared unexplained, and there is no sign of return.I don't know if it was another storm and the whole army was wiped out.Therefore, the expedition is not something that can be successfully realized by shouting slogans at all, and only Oun, the milky and undried earth spirit boy, would have such unrealistic dreams all day long!
Instead of taking the risk of going on an expedition overseas, you should enjoy your life now.Wait for the day when the blood scorpion tribe will be stronger and have enough strength, wouldn't it be better to go on an expedition to Giant Whale Island?
Anyway, that remote and backward island is still estimated to be scattered now, and it will be similar to conquer it in a few decades.Thinking of this, the green ghost glanced at the dark-faced expansionist in the corner, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and then coughed lightly, and said: "Okay, that's the end of today's topic, Silver Axe, the shipbuilding matter will be handed over to you, remember to have more snacks, but don't let our Ou En head wait too long, he is probably so anxious that his eyebrows are burning now." ”As soon as the green ghost's words fell, a burst of laughter rang out in the room.A burly and sturdy spirit stood up, patted his chest vigorously, and said in an urn voice: "Don't worry, big brother green ghost, I promise to do my best to make a stronger warship for the Orn head, lest it sink because of the storm!"
”There was another round of laughter all around.A few expansionist spirits finally couldn't help it.One of them changed his complexion suddenly, and he was about to speak.But at this moment.Suddenly, there was a deafening roar outside.An uproar followed.The sound gradually increased from far to near, and it seemed to be some kind of shouting and killing.The spirits present were stunned for a moment, revealing a dazed and stunned expression."
What's going on?""
Someone!"
Soon.A warrior rushed in with a panicked expression, immediately knelt on the ground, and said in a panic: "Guardians, an intruder has invaded the city!"
”As soon as these words came out, all the spirits suddenly changed color in unison.
