It is estimated that the eldest brother will not be able to come back for a while, Sojes took a few people to the restaurant first, because the little young master has not come back for a long time, the housekeeper has a very rich arrangement of dishes this time, which also makes a few people who have never experienced the life of a big nobleman addicted, but what they didn't expect was that not long after eating, Raymond actually came back.

"Big brother, you're back so soon?" Sojes was a little surprised, coming back so soon, could it be that the king didn't approve it? Looking at Raymond's somewhat unnatural expression now, not only him, but the rest of the people couldn't help but think so.

Raymond's expression was indeed not quite right now, but what he said made everyone ecstatic, "Well, the king approved this application, just to silence those nobles, and he still needs your help to complete one thing." ”

It turned out that this was the case, no wonder the eldest brother's expression was so unnatural, Sojes did not doubt him, and just waited for the eldest brother to sit down and then slowly narrated.

Raymond didn't go back to change into civilian clothes, he sat directly next to Sojes, and the servants who were waiting nearby naturally went to get a pair of tableware and sent it over, Raymond was not in a hurry to eat, but said with a serious face: "Which island to give you this time, big brother, I don't know very well, but what you have to do is not very easy, I will tell you the specific matters first, whether it will be completed by then, you will discuss it yourself, and give me an answer tomorrow." ”

Sojes nodded, he wasn't worried, after all, he still had information that he hadn't told Raymond, if this mission was not too difficult, then they could hide it, if it was really not something they could complete, then it would not be too late to tell Raymond about the coconut.

"You also know that the French Empire has an advantage that other empires do not have, that is, the Sea Beast Knight, some of the magical beasts in the Holy Beast Sea have the blessing of the legendary Holy Beast, so many of the not very high-level magical beasts have also opened their spiritual intelligence, and many of them can speak their mouths, and the French Empire has also hired these sea beasts for us to drive after paying certain benefits. ”

Everyone listened and nodded continuously, the history of the French Empire was the shortest of the seven empires, but it was able to develop from a kingdom to an empire in a short period of time, and these hired sea beasts could also be said to have contributed a lot.

Presumably, this mission has something to do with these sea beasts, and the five of them had such an idea in their hearts at the same time.

Sure enough, Raymond's words confirmed this conjecture, "Others may not have heard of it, but junior brother, you should know that there is a place called 'Arrow Turtle Island' in the southwest of the Holy Beast Sea, right?" "Arrow Turtles?" Sojes was stunned for a moment, and then recalled the name, "I know, Arrow Turtle Island didn't reach an agreement with us at the beginning of the founding of France, and the imperial side provides a large amount of food and some magic crystals that can be used by demonic beasts to cultivate every year in exchange for three thousand arrow turtles serving every year. ”

"Three thousand?!" The four of Ji Nevia were taken aback, the arrow turtle is not very powerful, compared to the deep sea spiny turtle of the turtle monster at the same time, I don't know how much worse, but don't forget, the arrow turtle is a social creature, and it turns on the spiritual intelligence, no matter how weak they are, they have the strength of the first order at worst, and some of the more powerful ones do not have the level of the second order, such as the king of the arrow turtle has the strength of the peak of the fourth order, if they fight alone, the arrow turtle is not strong, and it is not the category they are good at, but if hundreds of arrow turtles spray water arrows in the water with a power comparable to bullets, it only takes one round of strikes to sink an ironclad ship！

Therefore, the influence of 3,000 arrow turtles per year is definitely no less than that of a fleet of 50 ships, or even stronger!

"Ah, you're right, but you missed a point, the Fran Empire also needs to provide protection when the Arrow Turtle is exposed to powerful foreign enemies, and now is the time for the Fran to send reinforcements. Raymond rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, and the others looked at each other, and finally, Genevia spoke: "Big brother, if a race as large as the arrow turtle encounters a foreign enemy that can't be dealt with, I'm afraid our strength alone won't be able to help, right?"

Raymond glanced at it and found that the other four, including his younger brother, had the same expression, so he smiled bitterly and said, " In fact, I don't know if it was a strong foreign enemy or something else, according to the intelligence, the turtle family has seen a decline in the reproduction rate since last year, such as the turtle monsters often produce more than a dozen or even dozens of turtle eggs at a time, it stands to reason that there is no natural enemy under the protection of the flange They will not have a decline in the reproduction rate, but the current situation is that after each breeding period, not only the output of turtle eggs is less than one-third of the original, but the survival rate of newborn arrow turtles after birth is less than half of the past。 ”

"Is there such a thing?" Sojes's expression also became a lot more cautious, generally speaking, the decline in the reproduction rate of the demonic beast is either related to the climate, or it is related to the food, unless it is man-made, otherwise there will only be these two reasons, but the holy beast sea area is south of the blue sea, the climate of the blue sea is the most stable, and even the southern area with the holy beast sea area has also been affected, even if there is a change in the climate, it will not affect the reproduction of the demonic beast, in this way, climate change is impossible.

Then there is the food, in addition to the arrow turtle hunting itself, the French Empire will also provide a large amount of food every year, such as the food provided to the hired monsters will always have more than a dozen processes to check the quality, and it is impossible to be shoddy, so the possibility of this is not very large, according to this view, there is only the human factor left.

Sorges's fingers tapped rhythmically on the tabletop, a habitual action he made when considering things, and the other seven knew about his habit and didn't bother, and for a moment, all that was left of the restaurant was the sound of a knife and fork touching the dishes.

"Big brother, I took this task. Sorjes leaned back in his chair, his face unfazed but not worried.

"Jack, you have to think about it, this kind of task can't be done by force. Seeing that Sojes took over this task, Raymond was both relieved and worried, and he was relieved that his younger brother was indeed as the king said, and he was not without feelings for the empire, and he was worried about his safety.

"Don't worry, if you don't have a clue or encounter a strong enemy, I can't beat it, I can run away, besides, this is not necessarily a terrible creature, it may also be the impact of the environment, .com otherwise, they can slaughter the arrow turtles on a large scale, why bother to cut off their offspring to let them exterminate the race? Don't forget, no matter how weak the arrow turtle is, the monster as a turtle also has a long lifespan!"

"Huh......" Raymond let out a sigh and handed a wrist wheel that had been prepared long ago to Sojes, "You can hold this teleportation wrist wheel, if you really encounter a strong opponent, notify me in time, and I will try my best to rush to the scene as soon as possible to support." ”

Raymond was full of concern for his brother's safety, but unexpectedly, Sojes pushed his wrist chakra away, only to see him smile and say: "Brother, if I accept the wrist chakra, even if I complete this mission independently, I'm afraid there will be people who don't believe it, and when the time comes, they will have enough excuses to criticize the two of us, and the ownership of the island will not be so easy to decide." ”

"Do you want the island or do you want your life!" Raymond didn't know what to say, his brother was getting more and more incomprehensible.

"Islands, of course!"

"I'm getting hopeless and less hopeful about you......"

"That's good, I'm free to be a pirate leader, and you'll inherit the family. ”
