38 Do you want to be a fading memory?

Time moves forward slightly by a few minutes.

"Are you so sure that the queen of Loulan will agree to talk to you about this business?"

Still trapped in the body of an extremely rudimentary puppet, the Red Sand Scorpion looked at the newly collected intelligence scroll in his hand and asked Kaguya without raising his head.

"Half and half."

Kaguya sat in her place and drank the medicinal tea that only had a placebo effect, and while frowning at the bitterness, she replied in a murky voice:

"Half of the defeat is that the people of Loulan who experienced the An Lushan incident are basically still alive, and they should still have fresh memories of the things that were once reduced to coolie slaves......

"And what about half the battle? In your words?" The Red Sand Scorpion asked in an emotional voice.

"No, it's also on these Loulan remnants who have seen An Lushan build a thousand towers for Loulan, so that Loulan, who is so small that it can't be smaller, has almost no sense of existence except for the dragon veins that can't be used, and has become a city of miracles."

Kaguya Ren swallowed the last bit of medicinal tea, resisted the desire to be disgusted, and said with a hideous expression:

"They have seen the miraculous productivity that is born after the combination of puppetry and dragon veins, and there will always be some smart people who can realize that if they want to rebuild Loulan, they can't live without the power of this miracle."

"Just listening to what you said, I really think that you are a careerist who is plotting against other people's treasures."

The Red Sand Scorpion closed the intelligence scroll in his hand, and there was a rare look of interest in his calm eyes:

"However, the power of this dragon vein is indeed worthy of your attention to it. Even in the hands of a puppeteer as mediocre, ordinary, or even stupid as An Lushan, the dragon vein can exert such power, and if you can get it, the last defect of the human puppet can be repaired......

"You're thinking too much, I'm not going to go down your puppet path, Scorpion."

Kaguya Ren shook his head, looked at the intelligence scroll in his hand, and said with a speechless face:

"But one thing to say, I really obeyed the brain-dead logic of An Lushan, he has dragon veins in his hands, and the endless chakras comparable to tailed beasts can be claimed by him, and after the arrangement, he can even control all the puppets in Loulan at the same time, obviously he can directly use the tireless puppets to carry out endless automatic explosions, how could he think of arresting the residents of Loulan and being responsible for the production of puppets like coolies?"

"Humans are inferior beings to puppets, and there is something wrong with using incompetent and useless people who will eventually decay to produce eternal and perfect puppets?" The Red Sand Scorpion asked expressionlessly.

"Did the golem design be done by humans?" Kaguya looked at the Red Sand Scorpion, who was already a prisoner but still unconscious, and pointed to the regeneration core on his puppet's body and said, "Take your regeneration core off, can this parasitic puppet continue to move?" Can you design newer and stronger golems?"

"No, but that doesn't stop the puppets from being physically better than humans."

The Red Sand Scorpion is still hard-mouthed, but from his retort, it can be heard that he does not have so much confidence to continue to insist that the puppet is better than humans in all aspects, in this regard, Kaguya Ren thinks that this is quite a huge improvement, so, in order to make the Red Sand Scorpion more obedient in the future work, Kaguya Ren pretended not to care and stretched his waist, yawned and said:

"Whatever you think, unless you have the ability to make the puppets you design have intelligence close to or even higher than that of humans, and can optimize, upgrade, and iterate on their own without relying on human involvement, I will only continue to insist that puppets are just tools in the hands of humans."

「…… Give me the dragon vein, and I'll try to do it."

In the face of the red sand scorpion's lack of shame and the captive's consciousness of reaching out to the party, Kaguya was really choked,

After beating his chest hard to prevent himself from being choked by the bitter taste of the medicinal tea, Kaguya looked at the red sand scorpion with a paralyzed face with a speechless face, and said slowly:

"Don't you think you're a captive and speak in a somewhat arrogant tone, Scorpion?"

"Since you still have my Regeneration Core behind after asking for information about the Root Organization, it means that I am useful to you, and I will not casually discard the tool."

The Red Sand Scorpion calmly looked at Kaguya's eyes, and his tone was unwavering:

"And a bold careerist like you probably wouldn't mind giving the tools that are still under your control the most suitable tools for their production. For example, if you provide Orochimaru with all kinds of Blood Inheritance Limits that can fascinate him, and give him the tools and opportunities to spy on the source of ninjutsu and Blood Inheritance Limits, then for me, a tool man in puppetry, the power of the dragon vein is naturally the most suitable production tool......

「…… , this trip to Konoha should give the water stop some strength, so that he can awaken the other gods as soon as possible, otherwise the tool man of the Red Sand Scorpion is really not so easy to control."

Kaguya looked at the red sand scorpion with a "I said it" expression with a toothache and thought a little angrily.

……

Time comes back to the present.

"Business? Or is it impossible to make any good impression on me? Are you fighting the idea of the dragon vein?"

Queen Sara looked at the white snake on Uchiha Shisui with a wary expression, and her hand, which was a little pale, subconsciously reached under her pillow, where she hid a chakra knife that she had obtained from the hero who saved the people of Loulan Kingdom.

"Very sensitive, Queen Sarah," Kaguya's voice was unabashedly approving, "It seems that you know very well what Loulan's most valuable hole card is, and in that case, I can make it clear."

He coughed lightly a few times, then took out a meticulous posture and tone, and said in a deep voice:

"I hope that Wuyin can reach an agreement with Loulan Kingdom, that Wuyin will provide the knowledge and technology of puppetry, and Loulan will provide the dragon vein as the means of production, and we will re-establish Loulan Kingdom together, and on the basis of the dragon vein, further research the puppet technology that can be charged and used, so that the puppet art will be separated from the attributes of combat tools and transformed into a discipline with production and construction as the main research line of defense......

I wonder if Queen Sara would be interested in talking to me more deeply about the details of this business?"

"Do you think I'm like the kind of fool who pretends not to know the dangers of puppeteers and puppeteers after suffering a big loss from puppeteers and puppeteers!?" The red-haired Sara bit her lip tightly, her chest rising and falling in anger, driving her already difficult gasps to become heavier.

"But you should also know very well that with the strength of your current people, it is just a fool's dream to rebuild Loulan."

Kaguya shook the white snake's head disapprovingly, and said slowly:

"You have seen the superb scenery of thousands of towers rising from the ground in Loulan like a miracle, and you also know that the dragon vein has incredible power, don't tell me that you plan to guard that seal and the ruins of Loulan, and live forever on this barren Gobi with your people and all your descendants, watching the glory of Loulan once go from the memory in the minds of one generation, slowly into the stories in the ears of the next generation, and then into the legends and myths in the eyes of the next generation, and finally with your race, It is completely dissipated in the torrent of history rolling forward, and no one will lift it up and remember it."
