Chapter 90: The Meeting
After visiting the first tests of the Cobra tank, White Tang concluded:
"The 'Cobra' hovering assault fighting vehicle, itself focuses on an infantry fighting vehicle, which is used to load infantry for long-distance maneuvers and provide a certain degree of fire support."
The "Cobra" chariot, which can reach a speed of 300 kilometers per hour in the ground effect flight state, is now the fastest moving vehicle in the hands of the "Journey to the Underworld".
Each vehicle can transport ten Marines or five Heavy Hammermen.
"Susie," after the test, White Tang approached Susie: "I have a short-term plan, I need three Cobra tanks, and three Marine squads, see if you can help me arrange it."
Susie nodded and said, "Mr. Tang, no problem, that, can you tell us a little bit about the plan?" ”
White Tang replied, "Elena told us that the planetary control center is at the North Pole, and I plan to go north to check first, to see if the sea north is really impassable." ”
Susie thought for a moment and said, "Okay, at the current construction speed, you can prepare the vehicles and personnel you need in three days, can you?" ”
White Tang nodded: "No problem, I just took this time to go out for a walk, thank you for your hard work." ”
……
At lunchtime, the "Northeast Tavern" in Lingqi Village attracted two teams of important guests.
Since the scale of the "Divine Sleep" base has become larger and larger, more and more workers from all over the world have come here to "work", and Lingqi Village has now changed greatly.
The low-rise tiled houses in the village are now all overturned and rebuilt, and small western-style buildings with two or three floors have risen from the ground, in addition to various large hotels and hotels joined by foreign capital, and even the underground hot springs in Lingqi Village have been used to build hot spring hotels.
Lingqi Village, which originally had only about 100 people, has now become a gorgeous town integrating various functions such as shopping, food, and tourism.
This "Northeast Tavern" was opened by the Handel family whom Daniel met at the beginning.
Madame Handel's eyes were vicious, and she was the first in the village to let her husband help in the "greenhouse farm" of the lord's house, and she was the first to build a tavern to find customers.
Although Hobruns's travel funds are now crowded into Lingqi Village, and there are no less than 20 hotels of all sizes, relying on the advantages of first mover and connections, the Handel family's "Northeast Tavern" is still very prosperous.
"Yo, you're here, please sit inside." Mrs. Handel, who was standing at the door, saw Cha Mo and the others coming, and hurriedly greeted: "Carl, quickly take your sister Cha Mo to the VIP room." ”
Cha Mo also greeted her, and then introduced: "This is Mr. Tang." ”
Mrs. Handel bowed to White Don: "Hello Mr. Tang, I have heard of you from the tea powder and Fran's mouth for a long time, and you really have an extraordinary temperament when you see it today. ”
White Tang smiled and said, "It's hard for me to make a trip, just to taste the good craftsmanship of your 'Northeast Tavern'." ”
"Is April here?" Tea Powder asked after taking a moment.
Madame Handel nodded: "She's in the VIP room, and there is a cardinal besides her, so you want to discuss important matters with her, right?" Why don't I push the other guests away? ”
Cha Mo waved his hand: "No need, we just have a light meal, don't be so nervous." ”
White Tang also nodded and said, "Yes, we have known each other for a long time, so let's just sit down and talk." ”
Carl led the two to the VIP room on the second floor, and when he pushed the door open, both people in the room stood up to greet them.
Those two were none other than Cardinal April, the Thirteenth, and Cardinal Mathières, the Third.
White Tang shook hands with the two and introduced each other, and the four sat down around the table.
After a brief pleasantry, Aprile glanced at Mathières, and after receiving an affirmative reply, she asked straight to the point:
"Mr. Tang, I heard Fran mention it before, she said that you are the only messenger of the gods in the 'Journey to the Underworld' team, is this true?"
Her question is a bit sharp, because both the Vulcan Church and the "Journey to the Underworld" believe in their own "gods", and the gap between different religions is very deep, especially the question of April.
Everyone has a different "god", but who is this "god"?
White Tang smiled and said, "They are right, but I, the messenger of the 'gods', may not be what you think. ”
He retracted his smile and asked, "Lady April, what do you think of 'God'?" What kind of presence does your god of fire have in the hearts of believers? ”
White Tang's question was also very sharp, pointing directly at the core of the Vulcan Sect, and it was difficult for Aprile to answer at this time, so he could only look at Mathiès on the side.
Mathières cleared his throat, his gaze shining from under the bishop's hood.
"Mr. Tang, the development of the Vulcan Holy See originally started from the Vulcan Mountain......"
As the third cardinal, Matthias naturally knows the history of the Vulcan Church very well, and in his eloquent speech, everyone reviewed the development process of the Vulcan Church.
Speaking of the blessing of the god of fire, Mathiès stretched out his right hand, then removed his gloves and placed his scarred palm, palm side up, on the table.
"The god of fire has given us the power to control the flames," he exerted a slight effort, and a flame immediately ignited in the palm of his hand, and the flames jumped in his palm, as if they would not hurt him at all.
White Tang frowned, he was sure that Mathiès would not perform magic in front of him, so there was no doubt about the Vulcan Sect's ability to manipulate flames.
After thinking for a moment, three words suddenly popped out of his mouth: "Fire elemental." ”
Hearing these three words he said, April's and Mathiers' eyes lit up, but then White Tang's behavior made the two of them a little foggy.
"Hahahaha!!" After White Tang finished saying "fire elemental", he immediately burst out laughing, as if remembering something happy.
Even the tea powder on the side was a little inexplicable, and she couldn't figure out what was funny about it.
White Tang laughed for a while before stopping, he turned his head to look at the end of the tea, his face was still full of smiles: "The end of the tea, haven't you noticed what I'm laughing at?" ”
Cha Mo shook his head blankly: "Mr. Tang, what do you want to say...... How to manipulate the fire elemental is the key core of the Vulcan Holy See? ”
White Tang nodded: "This is just the surface reason, don't you remember what Fran said before?" ”
"Man does not depend on God to exist, but God is attached to man and exists."
