Start with an Archangel

Crystal is the most deadly place for Chongming City's army, but this life gate has Daliang in his hands.

Joshua was silent. After waiting for a while, he slowed down his tone and said, "Tell me your purpose. You definitely didn't come to me to show off."

Seeing that Joshua finally understood the situation and was willing to listen to him, Daliang revealed the purpose of his trip: "Actually, I don't want you to fight either. If Chongming City wins, I will lose Feichen Island. If Shangjiang City wins, They may also know the existence of the crystal mine. Even if I have the legal rights by then, I am afraid that most of the output will have to be divided. This is not what I want to see. Of course, I cannot stop what you two cities must have. A war, I just hope to postpone it as much as possible so that I can dig mines for a few more days."

"Why don't you give Feichen Island to me now, and I can promise to give you one unit of gems every day." Marquis Joshua put forward his own suggestion.

"No, no, no," Daliang rejected the Marquis' proposal: "I am a pirate. I have a very strong adventurous spirit and prefer to bet on my own luck. If I have the opportunity to obtain the entire output of this crystal mine, I will not be satisfied. One unit of alms per day.”

"Gamblers generally go bankrupt."

"It is also possible to get rich overnight." Daliang ignored Marquis Joshua's sarcasm and said: "Everyone knows the current situation very well. Under the pressure of Shangjiang City, you don't have enough troops to snatch Feichen from me. Island, but your army needs a lot of crystals. What I bring tonight is goodwill. I am willing to take four units from Feichen Island’s 5 units of crystals every day to trade with Chongming City. I need to exchange two A unit of gems, a unit of mercury, and a unit of sulfur are not rare resources that the elves are in urgent need of, and Chongming City can squeeze them out just as hard as they want."

The Marquis of Joshua did not expect that Daliang came here to do business with him, but the other party snatched his things and returned in exchange for his own resources. The Marquis felt indescribably aggrieved. But the current situation is not the most favorable time for Chongming City. He still has many plans that have not been completed, and some troops are not in place. At the very least, he didn't have the confidence to lead his own army to defeat Archduke Howard's army. He was deeply afraid of the man who could kill the level 15 Behemoth Holy Beast.

Tonight's attack preparations were entirely due to the loss of crystal supply, which caused Marquis Joshua to make a desperate attempt to survive, but Daliang's suggestion allowed him to see a turning point. The attitude of Shangjiang City is obvious. Even if they know that Chongming City has a golden dragon, they do not intend to start a war. The restoration of the crystal supply dispelled Marquis Joshua's desperate thoughts. He could resume his original war plan and make the most adequate preparations for future victory.

Daliang's proposal suddenly left Marquis Joshua with no other choice. He said: "Okay, I promise you. Two units of gems, one unit of mercury and one unit of sulfur will be delivered to your Feichen Island every day. I hope you send your cronies to handle this transaction, and you should also understand that if the crystal mine is exposed, you will be in great trouble."

Daliang did not expect that Marquis Joshua would agree to his proposed deal so easily. He regretted that his offer was too low. Now that Chongming City needed crystals to save lives, he should pick up a knife and bleed. However, since both parties have agreed on the exchange ratio, Daliang can no longer ask for high prices, but... he can still take advantage of the small advantage: "Well, I have an additional requirement in this transaction, and I hope the Marquis can agree to it. "

Marquis Joshua frowned and said, "What's the request?"

Daliang smiled and said: "I hope that the transaction of each unit of resources in Chongming City can give me two additional Silver Pegasus Knights."

Marquis Joshua didn't expect Daliang to be so shameless. He used his own resources to exchange for resources that originally belonged to him, which already made him very uncomfortable. Now this guy wants him to give the Silver Pegasus Knight a ride.

"Are you treating me as an idiot? High-level magic springs cannot directly produce Silver Pegasus knights. I need to consume two or even three Pegasus knights to cultivate a Silver Pegasus knight. Now... each Silver Pegasus knight Knights are my most precious warriors, and you need eight silver Pegasus knights in one day, so I might as well start a war with Shangjiang City now."

Facing the angry Marquis Joshua, Daliang said easily: "Is the Silver Pegasus knight more important? Or the dragon? On Feichen Island, I can kill dozens of you Silver Pegasus knights with just one archangel. , I'm afraid you can't get a golden dragon in exchange for four or five silver Pegasus knights, right? In fact, this kind of deal shouldn't last too long. By the time you are ready to officially attack Shangjiang City, we will be enemies."

Marquis Joshua thought about it and said, "I can give you two Silver Pegasus knights with four units of crystals."

"Six Silver Pegasus Knights, I like this unit very much."

"Four, no more..."

"make a deal!"

…………

Far away in the South China Sea, Shi Fei took the battleship he obtained from the Victoria Fleet and docked next to a small island. This is the peak of an undersea mountain, about 10,000 square meters in size, and the highest point is 50 meters above sea level. Small islands like this are extremely common in the sea. The steep mountain walls make it difficult for ships to dock on the island, so worthless islands like this are not included in any nautical charts.

Shi Fei was able to find this place only because of the memories of his previous life. However, after arriving here, he was not in a hurry to board the island. Instead, he marked the location of the island in the corresponding blank area on his chart.

Now, this island has no value, but Shi Fei knows that soon, when he has the manpower, resources and ships to develop this island, it will become an immeasurable wealth.

The construction of a territory is relatively easy in the early stage. As long as the territory is not in an extreme place (Black Fire Territory), the wood and stone needed to build the territory can be easily obtained. With sufficient funds and manpower, each territory can It was relatively smooth to upgrade to the sixth level territory.

But after the sixth-level territory, some important buildings require more than just wood and stone. Rare minerals begin to appear on the list of building materials. Therefore, if you want to build a great city, you must control enough rare resource mines.

In addition, recruiting and maintaining top-level troops also requires a large amount of rare resources.

The island marked by Shi Fei has a sulfur mine with a daily output of 0.3 units. He also hopes that he can have a rich mine that can produce 3 or 4 units of rare resources per day, but such mineral deposits are in the hands of NPC cities, and he does not have the strength to snatch those rich mines yet. However, for a poor mine like this, if a small amount is added up, a good output can be achieved.

Moreover, Shi Fei also knew that after this large-scale plot called "The Trouble Begins Xiao Qiang", the production of all rare minerals will increase. At that time, based on the production of more than ten rare mines in the South China Sea that he knows, he will be the world's largest owner. The player with the most rare minerals will be able to build a territory naturally.

It was just the news from the Shangjiang area that kept him wondering: The war between Shangjiang City and Chongming City seemed a little too early, right?
