Chapter 135: Insight
Due to the presence of the demon lord Morris, Hurricane and Cindy, who are quietly following Jessica, are trying their best to suppress their energy and reduce their presence.
The Frost Dragon is a newborn Tier 14 creature, the Hurricane has a Tier 15-like strength, and the Vampire Sword Guard Cindy is only at Tier 14-like. They don't know Morris, so in the case of unknown friends and foes, revealing their identities is likely to affect Daliang's entire plan.
Coupled with the space barrier, neither Hurricane nor Cindy could convey what they saw and heard here. Their main task is simply to protect Jessica when she is in danger.
Therefore, Da Liang did not know that there was a guardian angel in Jessica's bloodline. This sleeping angel only releases a little bit of power when Jessica encounters danger or major mood swings, which is why Da Liang has never been able to discover the existence of the angel.
At this time, Da Liang was on the airship watching the Scarab Company dispatch troops to the portal sea area.
Keppel's plan to blow up the iceberg failed. More than a dozen warships bombarded a small piece of ice for hours, emptying the ship's pre-stocked ammunition, but did not destroy the structure of the iceberg. He underestimated the level of magic in the ancient magic era, and realized that trying to conquer the portal was definitely not as easy as he thought.
Eliza was given only three days, and Keppel used that time to amass the maximum number of troops.
Fortunately, those hellish creatures that come out of the portal do not have the ability to fight across the ocean, and the sea water is naturally restrained from hellish creatures with a high affinity for the fire element. The Scarab Corporation has no way to deal with the icebergs protected by magic, and the creatures of hell cannot threaten the Scarab Corps fleet a few kilometers away.
The self-proclaimed invincible Scarab Company prepares for battle with ease. After receiving new supplies, the Scarab Company spent most of its time resting and preparing for battle, except for a ten-minute shelling of the iceberg every hour or two.
With the increase in the number of ships, the iceberg is surrounded by hundreds of ships of various types.
Military meetings are also frequently held on cruise ships.
Da Liang and Eliza also sat together in their spare time, chatting in the transparent reception room while waiting for the Scarab Company's general attack on the iceberg to begin.
Eliza also told Da Liang some of the Scarab Company's attack plans.
"In the beginning, we didn't think about bombing an iceberg. As a result, not many shells were brought, and the caliber of the ship's guns was not large. This time we brought a large number of torpedoes, and three more battleships with 305 mm guns will arrive today.
After the general attack begins, fourteen airships will continuously drop bombs on the iceberg from high altitudes.
No matter how much those infernal creatures strengthen the iceberg, my fleet can blow it to pieces in half an hour.
Then, my army will rush through the portal under the leadership of the enhanced genetic warriors.
The battles inside are sure to be very difficult to fight, and the Scarab Company will have to pay a lot of sacrifices, but this ancient relic will eventually be defeated by me.
I hope you will be most agreed not to send people to cause trouble. ”
For Eliza, who is always vigilant about himself, Da Liang laughed and said, "Don't be as mercenary as I imagined, and don't be too optimistic about this battle."
If the impending war makes you too nervous, why don't we talk about the Star Alliance and Order here?
You should know...... The two of us are fighting on the Order Star, and it is easy to expose the Order Star.
Does Scarab have anything to do? ”
Eliza didn't realize that Da Liang was trying to spy on the Star Alliance from herself, and the excavation of this ancient ruin really made her a little nervous, and the magic power of those infernal creatures was stronger than she imagined in the ancient magic era.
It also means that the value of this ancient relic is far beyond her and Needham's estimates.
She knew that Young Master Liang also knew the value of this ancient ruin, so she was worried that the Black Fire Company would attack the Scarab Company from behind at this time.
Hearing Da Liang change the topic, Eliza also let herself relax appropriately.
"Once the location of the Order Star is revealed, then the resources here are not exclusive to the two of us, which is the worst outcome.
However, the Scarab Company can find the founding company of Starlink to cooperate in the development of Order Star, and give most of the resources to the founding company to ensure that it has a fixed share that is not small.
As for your parent company.
If you don't have the strength to cooperate with the founding company, you will definitely be squeezed out of this resource star.
Therefore, it is best for a small Starlink company like you to accept the distribution agreement of the Scarab Company.
Now it's too late for you to promise the Scarab Company the right to distribute the Star of Order. By the time we're done excavating this ancient ruin, you'll have much less bargaining leverage. ”
"As a small company, you have to have a heart to fight. Fight a bicycle into a motorcycle...... In case you can't defeat this ancient relic within a month, then the contents may be ours. Da Liang said: "The problem now is that the Scarab Company is too tough on the distribution rights of the Order Star, and the two of us can develop it together without incident, but you want to take more and get more."
I'm afraid that if we continue to fight like this, things will go in the worst direction. Scarab had to sell a large part of its interests......
Lady Eliza, I can tell that you are not a Scarab executive, and there are many things that you cannot decide. However, some of the things you said to me were very hollow, more threatening us to give up our own interests, but never came up with some quid pro quo that appealed to me.
It's not something a big company would do, especially when the scarab company is also very risky.
Didn't your boss say that in exchange for the benefits of other places, let's make concessions on the planet of order? ”
Hearing Da Liang say this, Eliza's heart, which was originally slightly relaxed, instantly tensed.
The biggest problem with Scarab Company is that she and Needham have no way to communicate with Starlink Scarab Company. Their boss had no idea what was going on on Order, and they couldn't give orders on an open channel like Interstellar Radio.
Therefore, Eliza and Da Liang did not have too many hole cards to play when negotiating, after all, she was only the vegetable farmer at the bottom of the Starlink Scarab Company now, and she had no power to make decisions for the company, so she could only find a way to make the Black Fire Company give in, and she could not come up with the corresponding exchange conditions.
It's just that Eliza didn't expect it...... Young Master Liang discovered the problem from the details so quickly.
If the Black Fire Company knew that the Scarab Company only had two old men on the Order Star and had lost contact with the head office, then the Scarab Company would have completely lost the initiative.
