Chapter 278 Allied Forces
The leader of the squid clan looked at the letter in his hand, feeling extremely confused.
The squid tribe he rules is just a small tribe, with a population of only a few hundred people, and the strongest one is just him, the Phantom Beast Knight.
He still knows something about the Kur people. They are cruel, murderous, and war-like by nature. The letter written by Mr. Vasqi is indeed not an exaggeration.
But the problem is that with the strength of the squid people, I am afraid that they will die as cannon fodder on the battlefield.
Therefore, the leader of the squid tribe did not want to swim in this muddy water.
He just wants to lead his people to live a peaceful life, and at worst, he can bow to the victor after the war is over.
But he couldn't say it clearly, and the messenger of the Naga tribe was still waiting for his reply, so he couldn't refuse directly.
Really no one can afford to offend...
The leader of the squid tribe sighed. He felt a little pain in his forehead.
"As the envoy of the Naga tribe, you can rest assured that I will naturally strongly support Your Excellency Vasqi's decision. However, our squid tribe is too weak, so we might as well find another way..."
What he meant was simple.
Save money and avoid disaster!
It is well known that the Naga tribe is short of food, so the leader of the squid tribe plans to donate a batch of food as his "sincerity".
The Naga envoy heard this and was also moved by the Squid tribe's suggestion.
After all, their clan is indeed short of food, and she has already explored the strength of the squid clan.
To be honest, the word "chickens and dogs" is simply the most appropriate word to describe them.
Even if these weak guys are sent to the battlefield, they will have no effect. It is better to let them be responsible for transporting food, which will make the best use of everything.
"Okay, then you squid people will be responsible for transporting food. The frontal battlefield has nothing to do with you."
The leader of the squid tribe breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Although things did not develop as he expected, it was a good result to be able to avoid the whirlpool of war as much as possible between the two powerful races.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the squid people will definitely fulfill their duties."
Similar scenes were staged in various places in the central part of the Blue Sea.
Some races struggled for a long time but were helplessly captured, while most of the more powerful races succumbed to the power of the Naga tribe.
After all, the Naga clan is still one of the three major rulers of the Sea clan. Even if they are lonely, they can still rank among the top three in strength.
"Hasn't all the food been collected yet?"
Vashqi looked at the food currently stored in the clan and found that the quantity above was far from his ideal quantity.
"Reporting to the High Priest, we have collected all the tribes in the central part of the Blue Sea. This is the limit of what we can collect."
With the decline of ocean consciousness, not only the sea dragons are passing away, but also the resources on the seabed are further reduced.
In ancient times, seaweed was used as food for slaves.
But now, the Naga clan with noble blood can hardly even eat seaweed.
This strong sense of disparity couldn't help but sweep through Vasqi's heart again.
She gritted her teeth. At present, she had gathered all the food she could collect, and the remaining gap could only be placed on her so-called "ally".
What was Krober doing at this time?
At this time, he had returned to Amethyst Island from the southeastern waters of the Blue Sea.
He plans to expand his territory to the southeastern sea and is working on a method to enable ships to sail across the ocean.
Unfortunately, time travelers are not omnipotent.
So he failed.
Krober didn't have any knowledge about ships in his mind. At most, he knew basic knowledge such as adding a few more rows of sails.
So he had no choice but to use magical magic to help him achieve this goal.
As the Grand Magister, Ronald's wide range of knowledge and profound wisdom made him Krober's first choice for consultation.
So at this time, he was called out from the magic tower by Krober and asked about the ship improvement plan.
"Lord, the first reason why ships are currently unable to sail across oceans is because the materials of the ship itself cannot withstand it.
Ordinary wood must be maintained with oil after a short period of sailing, otherwise it is likely to be corroded by seawater. "
"I recommend smearing leviathan grease on the bottom of the boat so it becomes much more resistant to corrosion."
Ronald also lived up to Krober's trust, and the first point mentioned the key point.
Currently, the entire world uses cooking oil for boat maintenance.
Such as soybean oil, olive oil, etc.
This kind of oil is fine for cooking, but it is a bit insufficient for maintaining ships.
The oil film formed by edible oil cannot prevent seawater corrosion for a long time, so in order to extend the service life of ships, merchants will conduct offshore trade.
"I understand about the grease, do you have any other suggestions?"
Krober nodded, he would arrange the oil matter as soon as possible, not for anything else, even for his two fleets.
"If you want to solve it at the source, you might as well start with the wood in the main body of the ship."
After Ronald's reminder, Krober remembered that there was an oak elf insect in his insect room.
The oak produced by this oak elf worm itself contains a weak magic power. Although it cannot be compared with the trees produced by the Jade Valley, its hardness and corrosion resistance are definitely stronger than ordinary trees.
However, the number of oak elves that can be produced by a mere oak elf worm is too small to support the operation of the shipyard.
He still has to find a few tree-shaped elves.
While he and Ronald were discussing the improvement of the ship, the butler of Rose Castle, Yan, was rushing to the study.
"My lord, it's not good!"
Yan hurriedly pushed open the door, holding a letter with an anxious look, and handed it to Krober.
"I've told you many times, Yan, you should be calm when you encounter things, what's the hurry like."
Krober picked up the envelope, opened it and read it carefully.
Soon, he finished reading the letter and folded it and put it on the table.
"Master Ronald, please write a plan for ship improvement. I will ask the shipyard to start mass production after confirming that there are no problems."
Ronald nodded. He knew that his lord was going to chase him away.
This was a good thing for him, because the magician community never got involved in politics.
The mission of magicians is to open up a way forward for mankind.
It is better for them not to touch things like politics.
Academics need to remain pure.
And this is what Ronald most recognizes and appreciates about Krober.
This young lord is not only powerful, but also wise and philosophical.
The two of them have the same ideas in academics, which is a strong proof.
