"The maelstrom?" In the impression of a thousand nights, the events of the empire seem to be a long memory. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe impression left by the maelstrom is only the decisive battle of the city that does not fall that day. All the accidents that followed came from this moment.

However, Thousand Nights still remembers that the entrance to the Maelstrom is not in a neutral place, and the opening time is quite limited. It is in order to compete for a place in the maelstrom that the empire and the young generation of Eternal Night fight in the city of the unfalling. But it's been a long time now, and it stands to reason that the entrance to the maelstrom has long been closed, waiting for the next opening. How did it suddenly become the source of war in a neutral place?

Song Zining knew that Qianye had doubts in his heart, so he drew a map of the distribution of various continents and neutral places on the paper, and then slowly rotated, and said, "You know, the world we live in is not static, but constantly rotating. ”

This is common knowledge in the world, and Qianye has learned it when she was in the Huangquan training camp, but she doesn't understand it very well.

Zi Ning continued: "What kind of world is the maelstrom, so far there is no conclusion, but we know that it is very different from our world, so there are many rare resources produced. There are only two passages to the Maelstrom, one that appears and disappears, and that is the one we compete with Eternal Night for a spot. The other is in a neutral place, but it can't be used at all. ”

Rotating the continental distribution map around the world, he went on to explain: "When the whole world rotates around once, the passage of the first maelstrom is possible. It's not absolute, but it's much more likely. The passage in the Neutral Land had been unusable in the past, and only a few people had managed to get out of it, but they couldn't tell why they were able to get out. Basically, the entry passage is one with no return, so whether it is the Empire or the Eternal Night, it is as if this passage does not exist. ”

After a pause, Song Zining's expression turned solemn and said, "But since I have reached a neutral place, I feel that the surging force here is a little unconventional. After this period of reckoning, I feel that the once-in-a-century Force tide is coming. ”

Song Zining said as he wrote down a large number of formulas on the paper to prove it.

Qianye listened to it in a daze, and even more so did he understand the large number of formulas. These studies are too advanced to be studied, and few people can understand them even by listening to them. It is no wonder that throughout the ages, there are very few people who are proficient in the deduction of heavenly machines. It turns out that there is such a difficult and obscure knowledge to be practiced behind the scenes. It is conceivable how many people who have both cultivation talent and intelligence, and can combine both. It is no wonder that people who are good at the deferment of heavenly tricks are often good at military strategy, even if they are not the only party, they are also the military advisers of the big people.

Song Zining knew that Qianye didn't understand, so he roughly explained the Force Tide. That is, every few hundred years, the Force surge of the entire world will go through a cycle from high to low, and then from low to high, just like the tides of the sea. Why this happened is a matter of controversy and inconclusive as to the Eternal Night of the Empire.

The empire has only been established for a short time, and it has not experienced several Force tides since its founding, so it is difficult to study due to the lack of data. Although the Eternal Night side has a long history, because most of the major races only rely on instinct and bloodline power, they are not as systematic and systematic as the empire for exploring the world.

As Lin Xitang deduced, the reason for the formation of Force tides may be because the whole world is revolving around an unknown target, and one rotation is a complete Force tide.

This assertion was so astonishing that few in the empire believed it. The strong man had already started the process of exploring the void, but after flying over the edge continent, he was faced with an endless void, not to mention that there was no end, and there was not even a place to settle down halfway. And whether there is still a place to stand in the vast darkness ahead, no one can say, even the Supreme of the Eternal Night Holy Mountain cannot see through this endless darkness.

The stars in the night sky seem so close, but in fact they are so far away, so far away that it makes people feel palpitations and despair.

The imperial court didn't care about Lin Xitang's hypothesis. In the eyes of both the emperor and the important ministers, this is just a conjecture. Even if it is true, it is not as important as Lin Shuai's record against the rebels in the Western Continent. What's more, the empire and the eternal night have been fighting for many years, and there are many great wars related to the fortunes of the country. If the empire is dead, what is the use of proving that the earth under your feet is round?

For Qianye, what Song Zining said was too difficult and obscure, and it was even more difficult to understand than the inheritance of the long river of blood. In contrast, it may be much easier to kill a marquis.

Song Zining didn't expect Qianye to understand, and after roughly explaining the principle of the Force Tide, he returned to the topic.

This is the trough of the Force tides, and it won't be long before the Void Force has its calmest time in hundreds of years. During this time, the Force Storm in the passage leading to the Maelstrom will also become much calmer, at least not in a state that it was once absolutely impossible to traverse alive. If this is the case, then there will be a steady passage to the maelstrom.

Although relatively calm, the Force storm remains. But there is no need to say much about the value of a passable passage. For the sake of this passage, Eternal Night and the Empire could start a new war. And this war will inevitably involve many forces in the neutral land, and it will be extremely chaotic.

Not long after coming to the neutral place, Song Zining recruited Ji Tianqing and Li Qianglan, on the one hand, to help Qianye, and on the other hand, to lay the groundwork in advance, in case the matter of the passage is true, then it will take the lead in the battle with Yongye. This is also the reason why Song Zining was unusual, did not take root in Beilu and develop silently, but chose to gain a foothold in Nanqingcheng, the place of the four wars.

Qianye listened silently, and after a while, he said, "Do you think I'm still suitable to fight for the Empire?"

"You can't stand on the side of the eternal night, can you?" said Song Zining.

Qianye stood silent, Song Zining's smile became more and more reluctant, and finally he smiled and sighed.

Qianye finally spoke, "Why not?" just now, you should have felt it too, my blood qi has far surpassed the Dawn Force. By the standards of the Bloodline, I am already a Marquis. Now it is becoming more and more difficult for me to control the development of the blood, and maybe one day, the blood will completely overwhelm the Dawn Force, and then I will be a bloodline. ”

"What else?"

Qianye hesitated for a moment and said, "Also, what if...... She eventually returns to the Eternal Night, and if she wants me to pass, I'll go too. ”

"Will you?"

"Of course...... Yes. ”

"Forget it. Song Zining was unceremoniously, patted Qianye on the shoulder, and said, "It's really a good thing for her to return to Yongye? ”

"Imperial ......" Qianye smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I understand, you don't want to fight for such an empire. ”

Qianye let out a sigh of relief and said, "Indeed." ”

"I'm the same, but I can't help it. When it comes to the time of war, how can you sit idly by?" Song Zining also smiled bitterly.

"It only makes sense to keep the current empire going?"

"Whether it makes sense or not is a matter for later, but I can only talk about it in front of me. If we don't fight this war, will we still be able to hide from it? We have all taken refuge in neutral places. ”

Seeing that Qianye was still depressed, Song Zining laughed and said, "Anyway, we have to fight, and if we don't, we have to fight." Who let this passage appear in a neutral place? ”

Qianye snorted and said, "I'm not interested, it's a big deal to go to Hokuriku to hide." ”

"I really don't want to fight, there is a lotus life on the sea in the maelstrom!" Song Zining smiled treacherously.

"......" Qianye only snorted heavily to show his dissatisfaction.

Waiting for Qianye to push the door away, Ji Tianqing's voice sounded next to here, "Are you so sure?"

This eldest lady has been hiding in the room, and with her ability, she can naturally make Qianye unaware.

Song Zining sighed lightly and said, "Don't look at what he says, when the fight really starts, he knows that we are also on the battlefield, so he will naturally come." ”

"It's not us, it's you. Ji Tianqing said.

"No, it's us. Even if it's just you, he'll come. ”

Ji Tianqing seemed to have something flashing in her eyes, and suddenly slapped Song Zining's shoulder heavily, almost slapping him to the floor, and said, "Next time you do something bad, make a louder voice, so that Miss Ben won't hear clearly!"

After all, without waiting for Song Zining to stand firm, she had disappeared from the same place.

Song Zining was so painful that she even inhaled cold air, and finally stood firm, snorted, and said to herself: "Dead girl, with such a heavy hand, I think Ben Shao can't see your thoughts?"

The following month was calm.

There are many unusual things about the seemingly calm situation. In Nanqingcheng, the flow of people and goods has increased sharply, and the streets that were already congested are now often overflowing. People curse the congested traffic while rejoicing in the increasingly heavy purse strings.

With the constant influx of material resources into the city, the construction of various workshops has increased dramatically, and new workshops are being built almost every day. For merchants, time is gold. Once a workshop is completed, every day it is vacant will lose a day, so almost every trading house is recruiting craftsmen in large numbers to prepare for the workshop that is about to be completed.

The industrial system of Nanqingcheng has begun to take shape, and almost an entire floating warship can be built here. As long as people who are not stupid enough to go home, they have seen the huge business opportunities ahead, so they have increased their investment again. New inputs mean more people and more supplies, which accelerates the cycle even more.

With the massive wealth converging in Nanqingcheng, how to ensure the safety of this wealth has become an important issue. In the face of the real gold coins, the forces of both Guanlan and Tingchao City became no longer important, and even Zhang Tianwang's deterrence was invisibly diluted a lot. When Song Zining proposed to expand the military war and build fortress turrets, all the commercial houses strongly supported and contributed money and efforts, and they did not feel that there was anything wrong with the plan proposed by Song Zining. In their opinion, the more troops they have, the better, even if the size of the troops already threatens Tingchao and Guanlan City.
