Chapter 384: Witch's Forest Adventure 10 (Page 1/1)

After the talks, Tess went straight to Xiang Ningxuan's room.

Tess brushed the hair in front of her forehead, changed her previous fortitude, showed a tired and weak look, and said, "Didn't disturb your rest, did you?" There's something I'd like to talk to you about. ”

The beautiful princess came to visit late at night, and she also put on a weak appearance, which seemed to indicate that something ambiguous would happen.

Xiang Ningxuan looked at Tess with interest and was silent.

After holding it for a long time, Tess's face gradually turned crimson, her fists clenched, and she gritted her teeth and tried to restrain herself.

Hehe, Miss Tess, your acting skills are not up to par! is obviously a female man who dances with knives and guns, but she wants to pretend to be weak.

"All right, Your Highness Princess. Are you here to get down to business or something else? ”

Tess also felt that she couldn't pretend anymore, so she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, straightened her waist and said, "Let's talk about business." We in Gilneth need help. ”

Then, she told Xiang Ningxuan about the possible famine in winter, and then asked, "Can you help provide food?" At what cost? ”

Since her father raised her brother Liam as an heir, Tess didn't have to worry about politics at all, and she focused on wielding knives and guns and fiddling with traps, making her a member of Azeroth's top stalkers.

But Liam's death in battle changed all that, and as the only child of Jean Greymane, she had to pick up the blame for Crown Prince Gilney.

Like this kind of food crisis that is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people in the kingdom, although she boasted about Haikou, she really didn't know how to solve it, so she could only bite the bullet and ask Xiang Ningxuan for help.

Food! Xiang Ningxuan had focused on dealing with Hagasa before, and he hadn't thought of this stubble. It was only at Tess's mention that he remembered that he had already conquered such a warlike race as trolls and orcs with food, and that the same methods would work for Gilneth.

To generalize further, the entire planet has collapsed due to the end of the world, and agricultural production has collapsed. In the short term, we can survive by relying on grain stocks, but in the long run, a serious food crisis will definitely occur.

Especially in places where order has collapsed, there is a high probability that a food crisis will erupt in less than a year. Because food needs to be carefully maintained for long-term storage, otherwise mildew and rot and insect infestation will quickly destroy the stored grain. On the side of Colento and Tom, the loss of food stocks is very serious.

The food crisis, Xiang Ningxuan saw an opportunity from it. In the world of the future, whether it is to conquer aliens or humans, food will be better than swords.

Before, because there were two or three years of grain stock, Xiang Ningxuan had not paid attention to grain production, but now it seems that he has made a mistake. No matter how much of this is a critical material, there is not too much food.

"After returning home, we should immediately increase investment in agricultural scientific research and expand the area of cultivated land." Xiang Ningxuan said secretly.

Seeing that Xiang Ningxuan hadn't answered, Tess couldn't help but feel weak in her heart, but she still mustered up her courage and asked again: "That, can you help provide food?" ”

Only then did Xiang Ningxuan react and said, "How much food do you need?" ”

Tess calculated: "There are currently 300,000 people left in the whole of Gilneis. 80% of them are werewolves, have a larger appetite than ordinary people, and eat about twice as much as ordinary people. Our grain reserves can only last until autumn, and we need half a year's worth of grain. So ......"

Xiang Ningxuan quickly calculated the number: "So, you need food equivalent to 540,000 people for half a year, right?" ”

Tess nodded, "Yes." ”

"We can sell you grain, as for the price...... hehe, can you count if you promise?"

"Uh......" Tess smiled awkwardly, her father was in charge now, and she really couldn't decide anything.

Xiang Ningxuan said with a smile, "For the specific conditions, we will send someone to talk to King Jean, and then you can get involved and see how your father handles it." At present, the first condition is to defeat Hagasha, obtain the time and space anchor, and let the kingdom of Gilneth descend next to us. ”

Tess nodded, "No problem." Tomorrow we will continue deep into the forest to look for traces of Hagasha. ”

————

After Tess left, Xiang Ningxuan went to bed early, and I don't know how long it took for the rumbling cannon to wake him up.

Looking at his watch, it was only three o'clock in the morning, and a wake-up breath filled his chest, eager to dismantle the guy who disturbed his sleep.

I can't sleep anyway, so what's there to say, guys!

Xiang Ningxuan listened carefully and found that although there was also the sound of battle at the mouth of the town facing the forest, the sound of artillery came from the bay behind.

At the beginning, in order to allow them to have a good rest, their residence was deliberately arranged far from the entrance of the town, not far from the port, so the sound of artillery was particularly clear.

He couldn't help asking, "Araki, what's going on outside?" ”

Araki bowed and said, "Master, there is a group of monsters from the witch forest attacking head-on to attract the attention of the defenders. Just now, a ghost pirate ship appeared from behind and attacked the harbor. Some of the ghost pirates have landed now. ”

At this time, Tess and the others had also been awakened, and Xiang Ningxuan simply said, "Let's go, let's go to support the port." ”

It was the darkest time before dawn, and the town was so dark that only by the light of the shelling could be seen that a warship was shelling outside the harbor.

Xiang Ningxuan and the others had just arrived, and they didn't know the road at all, and just when they didn't know what to do, they saw a group of dark blue phantom militiamen hurrying back.

Xiang Ningxuan gave Tess a look and asked her to negotiate, after all, the identity of Princess Gilneth is still very useful.

Sure enough, after a brief conversation, this team of phantom your militia beckoned Xiang Ningxuan and them to follow, and they were about to go to support the port.

Before they reached the port, they saw a large number of ghost pirates killing people and setting fires everywhere. There were also a large number of buildings destroyed by shelling in the vicinity, and many people were killed by pirates as soon as they escaped from their houses.

In the harbor, there are also a number of small boats ferrying back and forth, transporting ghost pirates from pirate warships ashore. There are also some fish-men who swim ashore from time to time. At this time, at least a thousand pirates had already landed on the shore. The sea is still being transported, and I don't know how many pirates are on that pirate ship, so maybe the ghost pirates can be stacked on top of each other and not take up much space.

Since the enemy did not expect to come up, the defense of Twilight Bay Town was mainly concentrated in the part of the town that was directly opposite the witch forest, and the defense of the port was unusual. By this time, the defense line had been broken.

Xiang Ningxuan summoned the Stepping Swallow Horse, activated the rage, took the lead, and entered the enemy formation, and the horse lance picked the thorn and put down the ghost pirates one by one.

The others followed, and since it was past midnight, Colento and Tom had recovered their non-combat mana crystals, and they were finally able to use their full strength.

Colento chose a treasure that lowers the cost of spells and a minion light element that reduces the cost of spells, combined with the Sun Shard Lyra (the effect is that every time you cast a spell, a random priest spell card is placed in your hand), it instantly becomes a perpetual motion machine, and all kinds of spells are used endlessly, providing strong support.

Tom is still the king of fungi, and he chooses to increase the treasure of the maximum number of followers, and a large group of followers are on the top of the line to absorb damage. It doesn't matter if he's dead, it's just another big wave, anyway, he can change one to two.
