Chapter 699: I don't understand
"The world will go through terrible tribulations, and perhaps in the future the population will be drastically reduced and the whole world will become desolate. Lynch...... You have to improve yourself, you can't rely on others. Xia He still held back and didn't mention the mysterious gods.
He was afraid that the gods would know that they had seen through it and would come to him for trouble.
"I understand, I haven't relied on anyone else for a long time. Lynch said confidently.
"Then you can ask Freya for resources, and then make a war plan, and I must take down that island. β
"Location isn't critical, is it?" asked Lynch, curiously.
"In this world, the barriers of the sea are about to disappear, so what is south of the sea? Maybe there are new continents that we don't know. The old legends are clear, but they don't say it. β
"Well, I'll take my troops to fight that island. Lynch didn't ask any more, the Lord God gave him a task, and he ignored it. Recently, he has hardly done any tasks, and his strength has grown entirely on his own cultivation.
After dealing with the problem of Storm Point, Xia He returned to Sun City.
It's summer in Rhode Island, and it's full of life. After a long period of construction, the CitΓ© Soleil has become so beautiful that it looks like it is a thousand-year-old capital. The branch of the Academy of Magic was built here, which made Xia He miss the Tenth Academy of Magic a little. He didn't want to go, because he felt uncomfortable when he went, and he thought of Jennifer.
The royal family also pays him a salary every year, and as the president of the Tenth Academy of Magic, his status is quite high.
Now that he has his own academy, even if he is not a duke, he is an important figure in the empire. It's just that other deans are all the same in the academy and have die-hard followers. He was in the Tenth Academy of Magic, and he only had a reputation, but if he didn't go, the teachers and professors would be a little unfamiliar with him.
Back in Sun City, Xia He first paid attention to the development of his Rhode Island, and did not learn about the Empire's war in the New World.
Rhode Island is doing well now, with a lot of people moving in.
The northern side of the city has become a mineral processing center, and Daliang City is still a training base. On the other side of the city, it became the center of food production in Rhode Island, and there were also troops stationed there, mainly for more in-depth training. Needless to say, Sun City, the attached Samsung Town has become a big city, but it is still called a town.
The biggest change is the city of stars in the south.
A huge urban circle, all kinds of strange artists, magicians, all in search of opportunities.
Although the empire continued to invest troops in the war, and suffered a lot of losses, the nobles were still keen to chase these useless things.
The City of Stars is much more profitable than the training base in Daliang City.
What makes Xia He happy is that the intelligent mechanical life is well integrated and survives peacefully in Rhode Island. Because Xia He provided better technology, so that their appearance was no different from that of humans, but they could be directly recognized, and it didn't cause much trouble.
Rhode Island is not rich in water resources, and Xiahe cannot build a hydropower station to supplement the robotic energy. Fortunately, in this world, the magic rough stone generates electricity, which is more economical than using raw coal. The robot itself can also convert bioelectric energy through ordinary diet, and only in combat state will it run on batteries to provide powerful power.
The principle of the magic battery is simple, and the good performance is because Xia He has added some formations that absorb the power of deep space. This makes the battery last long enough without much additional cost.
Now there are a huge number of robots in Rhode Island, and the main thing is not in the army, but in construction.
Lifeless robots recycle metal after they are scrapped, and they don't need to be as complicated to make.
The territory is stable, and the demonization of the demonic beast incident that happened before has been repeatedly investigated, and it is finally determined that it was an accident at all, and it was not intentional by the demons.
Xia He paid attention to the matter of the imperial expedition to the New World, and after checking the information, Xia He frowned.
The empire's losses were not small, millions of troops were invested before and after, and more than 30,000 soldiers were lost.
On the side of Sanxing Town, there were more than 2,000 losses, and only two of his expeditionary forces were killed, and thousands of nobles were killed. On the side of the princess and the county king, there were also more than 1,000 losses in total.
But when the royal family attacked deeply, at the expected location, it was ambushed by the demons.
After controlling the passage to the east, the royal family built a city in the plains, intending to create another forward base. However, this passage was blocked by the demons again, and the follow-up troops were not replenished, and more than 8,000 people were lost in the siege battle.
Later, reinforcements arrived, and they fought fiercely with the demons, losing more than 10,000 people.
In the next three months, there were not many deaths, but the human race was confined to the city, and the demons kept harassing, and they no longer sent large-scale troops to attack the city, but harassed them with small forces.
This makes it difficult for the human expeditionary force to survive, and it must be guarded against every day.
Because the demonic qi of the demon clan is extremely contagious, soldiers must wear fully enclosed armor when fighting. So the battle is not easy either. Not everyone makes the soldier's armor comfortable, and sometimes a little bit of feeling has to be sacrificed in order to reduce costs.
The three-star coalition army in Rhode Island also increased its troops, raising the total number of troops to 20,000.
In general, the war was dominated by humans, because many demon legends were killed. But Xia He knew that as long as the demons were willing to sacrifice, they could artificially promote some legends.
If the population of the Demon Realm exploded and had to launch an external invasion and enter the main world forcefully, then it would not care about sacrifice.
The Second Field Army, which has now expanded to 42,000 men, has reached the minimum standard.
However, on the New World, there are still only 500 people.
This isn't very good, the demon starry sky battleship is almost finished. The empire has invested millions of troops, but it is still not enough, and more soldiers should be recruited from the other world to launch a full-scale attack on the demons.
Another piece of news is that many temples in the Green Forest have sent expeditionary forces to the New World.
The empire of the Green Forest Continent has not moved, because the Green Forest is also being invaded, and the mysterious mechanical life is endlessly slaughtered. Sometimes, only a little mechanical core remains, and if it is not cleaned up, the mechanical core kills nearby creatures, absorbs nutrients, cultivates flesh, and grows again.
As for the Leo continent, his own family is overwhelmed by the orcs, so it is naturally impossible to send troops here.
The power invested by the temple is quite large, and the alchemy factory on this side of the Xia River has been producing warships for each temple to buy. These temples are also rich, either with materials or gold, in short, the money is in place, as long as the performance is good, it doesn't matter the price at all.
However, the subsequent transactions were not as interesting as those of the Temple of Dawn.
The stars of the Temple of Dawn, now Freya has been mined, and it is indeed rich in resources, not only precious blue copper colored gold, but also too many mineral deposits. It's just that it needs master-level humans over there to work for a long time. Robots also have to be of a higher level.
This is not a problem for Xia He, because of the war in the East China Sea, Xia He did not want to expose the magic of the rough ore veins on the seabed, so he temporarily stopped mining. His five ghosts, the heavens, the earth, the ghosts, and the gods, can all be sent there to mine. He can also make high-level robots.
Xia He can understand that this is the kindness released by the Temple of Dawn to himself.
No matter how difficult that star is to mine, the Temple of Dawn will not be impossible to develop. The powerful temple always has a way to deal with this situation, after all, although the stars are not big, they are quite valuable.
It's a complete plane, and it's worth a lot on its own.
A heavy planet, close to the stars in the galaxy, with high temperatures, and the Nine Heavens Gang Qi is full of poisonous gas. It looks terrifying, but it is very common for Daomen to mine this kind of star. The closer you are to the star, the higher the specific gravity of the metal and the more valuable the material.
Dawn Temple, what deal do you want to make with yourself?
Xia He doesn't understand, the Dawn Temple is so powerful, what do you want from her?
When the old pope left, the Temple of Dawn did not look weak, and three pairs of saint armor were created, and after the three saints wore them, their combat power was no different from that of the old pope.
The power of the old pope, it's too easy to kill ordinary legends.
The Lord of Dawn can have such an excellent believer, and the divine position is very stable. Such a god does not have to please himself at all.
I originally thought that after coming back, the empire had made progress in the New World, but I didn't expect it to be a mess. The more Xia He thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and if he continued to fight like this, it was only a matter of time before the demon clan counterattacked.
Not to mention the demons, the half-elf empire is only temporarily suppressed by the empire, and it is not dead yet. The Half-Elven Empire controls some other worlds, and its forces are still sufficient. If you want to exhaust the war potential of the half-elves, I am afraid that you will not be able to do it in ten years.
If the empire loses too much in the New World, the half-elves may counterattack.
The smooth progress of the goblin world has become confusing when it comes to the main world. Xia He feels that a person's luck cannot be good all the time, and now may be a key point.
He immediately contacted Freya and asked Freya to send the prepared support to Rhode Island a month in advance. As for why, he doesn't know.
Xia He couldn't help it, so he went to Sanxing Town to see Enslin.
Enslin has a special residence in Sanxing Town and has built a laboratory. Xia He came over, and he smiled when he looked at it.
"Asla, what are you worried about?"
"The battle situation in the New World. Enslin was so smart, and Xia He didn't hide it, so he asked directly: "Why don't you increase the intensity of the attack?"
"Let you fight, can you beat it?"
Xia He shook his head, and Enslin said, "Since you can't beat it, ask others to help?"
......
"Your Majesty, he doesn't want to be so fast, then we'll wait. Enslin said, "Come on, come on, look at the new gadgets I've designed." β
Only then did Xia He see that there was a bird on the experimental platform, a relatively rare looking magical beast - the snow gull.
