Chapter 482: The Black Tide Descends (4)
"You also know that after the plane was restarted, only a few of the thirty-six races that settled in Tiana with the human race, and most of the minorities remained. Queen Naga said.
"I suspect that someone in the Ark Cabin on the Dark Side of the Moon has deliberately prevented certain ethnic groups from waking up, and even killed them. ”
"Naga is special. We are oviparous, so when the 'Ark Project' was launched at that time, in addition to the sleeping Naga Legendary Clansmen, there were also many Naga eggs kept in the Ark Cabin. ”
"Twelve thousand years ago, when the Ark Module was activated, there were Naga people who woke up. But for some unknown reason, all the Naga who woke up disappeared. Only one Naga person used a secret technique to protect the unhatched Naga eggs and seal them at the bottom of the South China Sea, which is here. ”
"About 600 years ago, the power of the seal disappeared, the Naga egg was hatched, and the Naga reappeared in the face of Tia. ”
"In the beginning, because of the small size of the race, we have been living at the bottom of the sea, so we have not been noticed by other races. Until a few decades ago, it was discovered by Mr. Slardar. ”
"I'm a little curious," Luo Songxi said, "Since all the Naga eggs that have been preserved are unhatched, where did you learn about the 'Ark Project' from your ancestors, and the fact that Naga eggs were sealed and preserved?"
"Naga can carry on some of the memories, especially the one that entered the Ark Cabin, and the memories of the 'Ark Project' have remained in our consciousness since birth. ”
"Also, the naga of Jiaowei is able to perceive and remember before hatching. I was one of the first Naga to hatch from that batch of eggs. ”
"It's just that the perception was still relatively weak at that time, so I don't know many key things, such as why those awakened Naga disappeared, and why our eggs were sealed. Queen Naga said.
But then she said again: "Forget it, the matter in the ark cabin, let's talk about it after the black tide recedes this time." This kind of matter, which may affect the unity of all ethnic groups, should not be investigated or mentioned at this time. ”
Luo Songxi nodded, there were two things that surprised him.
First, Queen Naga, who has a stunning face and stunning figure, is actually more than six hundred years old. I don't know what it was like to be admired by the six-hundred-year-old Naga at that time.
The second is the six-hundred-year-old Naga Queen, after all, she is much more knowledgeable than some big families in the plane.
For example, elves who don't want to join forces with anyone.
At this time, an airship landed on a makeshift airship stack erected on the sea.
Recovered from his serious injuries, he brought with him 30,000 long-handled knives forged for Naga.
The Naga are also mostly warriors, but they live at the bottom of the sea for a long time and lack the resources to craft weapons. This time, these swords designed by Luo Songxi himself and supervised by Master Mars are not only of good material, but also have a unique law pattern of black magic attached to the hilt, making Naga warriors more efficient when cooperating with priests to cast black magic.
Queen Naga finally showed a rare smile to Luo Songxi, and this smile made many dwarves in charge of transporting the war knife shake their hearts.
Only Jia Shide did not say a word.
Since the incident of his senior brother, this once heroic and hearty dwarven youth has become as silent as a stone. After healing from his injuries, he quickly broke through to the Legendary Rank, and after completing the task of transporting the sword, he joined the team defending the undersea circle without saying a word, carrying a war hammer.
"There are still 30,000 ...... in the next batch," Luo Songxi said to Queen Naga, "I wonder if it can meet Naga's needs?"
"Enough," said Queen Naga happily, "the Naga have about fifty thousand men left, both men and women, apart from the children. 60,000 knives, and there are still some spare. ”
"But under the arrival of the Black Tide, it is not just to hold the magic circle, the main battlefield will still be on several continents. I don't know how the preparations for war are on the Human Continent?" Queen Naga asked Luo Songxi.
"The Federation and the Empire, each of which has launched a maximum mobilization, a total of more than 20 million soldiers, will take up arms to defend the continent. "Luo Songxi Road.
"With a population base of billions of human beings, the so-called maximum mobilization only mobilized more than 20 million soldiers?" Queen Naga said with some mockery, "What about the other human beings?"
"In my inheritance memory, in the first few Black Tides, although human beings did not have the current technological civilization, at least they still had courage. Adults over the age of sixteen, at least as long as they are male, are all dispensed with weapons, and all of them are soldiers. ”
"The four major races of dark creatures all have indestructible and reborn bodies, and the only advantage of ground creatures over dark creatures is the population base, especially the humans whose short lifespan you exchange for strong reproductive ability. ”
"That's why humans have become the leaders of the previous resistance to the Kuroshio, not because of how powerful humans are, but because humans have the tenacity and courage to trade ten or even a hundred people in exchange for killing a dark creature. ”
"This time I originally thought that the form was good, and the dark creatures had consumed a huge population by Helpsius in order to tear open the crack of the seal for three hundred years. But you humans only sent 20 million troops?"
Luo Songxi was a little speechless.
He originally wanted to say that thousands of huge and strong war fortresses were being built on the human continent for civilians to hide in during the Kuroshio and reduce losses.
In his understanding, war should use the most professional teams and the most professional weapons to protect other non-professional people. This is the truly modern concept of warfare.
But such a concept seems to be far from Queen Naga.
"It's not the kind of war you humans fight on your own," Queen Naga seemed to see what Luo Songxi was thinking, "It's desperate. ”
"All races that don't have inherited memories will make this mistake at the beginning when facing the Kuroshio. ”
But she didn't continue to try to persuade Luo Songxi, but swung her tail and dived into the deep sea to preside over the distribution of this batch of weapons.
......
......
In another three months, the Empire emptied its coffers, and the thousands of war bastions that the Confederation had consumed most of the resources of the Stuttgart and Rawls families were nearing completion.
This is almost a miracle in the history of human architecture.
But the two regimes faced the same problem: civilians were unwilling to abandon their homes and relocate to war fortresses.
In the Federation, in particular, there have been protests against centralized relocation and accusations of rapid inflation, which have been uncontrollable even by President Paul.
Paul's supporters were mainly the huge industrial workers, and during this six months, under Paul's persuasion, the industrial workers collectively devoted themselves to the construction of war fortresses and various war projects.
At first, the workers were quite optimistic. These construction projects mean that they will not lose their jobs, and although they have to work much more intensively than before, they will earn a relatively large income.
But after a few months, when they found that although they were getting more money than before, they still underperformed the price increase of daily necessities, and they finally broke out.
In order to catch up as quickly as possible, the three major federal banks had to approve a huge amount of loans, and the Luo family had to hoard most of the food to meet the needs of wartime.
So they united with the middle class and the petty bourgeoisie, which had already developed strong discontent, and expressed their strongest dissatisfaction with the government.
Paul hoped that the major newspapers, led by the Federal Post, would use public opinion to guide the mood of the people. However, the "Federal Post" did not buy it at all, and dug up the fierce news that the three major federal banks had spent most of their deposit reserves, resulting in a large number of outlets under the three major banks almost paralyzed due to a run.
When the plutocracy, fearing the Kuroshio, loosened its grip on the Federation, the country that boasted of democracy slipped into anarchism day after day.
"It's time to put the military under control, otherwise it's too late. ”
Looking at Luo Songxi, who was frowning with the information, Queen Naga sincerely suggested.
However, at this moment, the Naga on the front line sent back the highest level of urgent information from the Garigana Trench:
The illusion of Herpsius was shattered.
Creatures of darkness have finally been dispatched.
