Chapter 210 Hundred and Waste Waiting to Be Rebuilt
He didn't want to die at this moment, so he tried his best to stand up slowly, wanting to rely on the blood in his body in exchange for his last hope of survival!
As long as you can awaken the demon bloodline in your body, you can still live!
However, in the next second, he was horrified to find that fierce and terrifying tentacles had grown from the wound on his chest!
The tentacles seemed to take the place of his heart, and then, in the fear of Chinoby's eyes, spread his entire body!
The whole person suddenly exploded into countless pieces!
And at this time, the explosion of the demonic bloodline produced an extremely terrifying power!
Ace was closest to Chinobi and bore the brunt of it. He was overthrown unprepared! However, with Ace's strength at this time, this certainly won't cause him much damage!!
The shock wave from the explosion instantly lit up the sky and the earth.
After Chinobi's death, the demon army also disappeared into the black mist.
The savannah was greatly affected in this unprecedented war!
How terrible can it be when two people beyond the level of the gods go all out? Thus, after the war, the entire steppe was seriously damaged. The steppe itself was destroyed, and many innocent people were affected!
Although Ace evacuated the residents of Ancient Star City in advance, the ordinary residents of the surrounding cities did not evacuate in time. Although there is a distance from the main battlefield, the distance is insignificant in terms of the destructive power of this unprecedented war. Nearby cities are still badly damaged with heavy casualties!
After the end of the war, the entire prairie was basically in a state of ruin.
Initially, the subhuman population was very small. Nearly 30,000 young people were killed in this war, making the population of this race even more strained!
For a time, the alchemist and a handful of Holy Light mages became the busiest people in the alliance!
Nowadays, the situation in the Mandala Continent has changed dramatically, and it can be roughly divided into three different forces!
The new coalition formed by Ace, including the original Yalijiang Province, the Prairie, the Elemental Envoy and the Dwarf, as well as six other empires, participated in the Resistance War this time.
These six empires, in addition to the Yama Empire, in fact, the other five small empires are not powerful, but when they are united, they are also a force to be reckoned with!
In this way, the new alliance on Ace's side will become stronger!
The second force is, of course, the New Delhi Empire!
Initially, the New Delhi Empire, in alliance with the Devil, should be considered the same camp. However, from the point of view of this war, the New Delhi Empire did its best in the first half of the journey of uniting the Demon Army against the Ace Coalition Army. But later, after the King of the Abyss captured Chinobi, the situation changed significantly.
As the highest-ranking commander of the New Delhi Legion, Huatahi was no fool. He was clearly dissatisfied with the Abyss King's approach and disagreed. Thus, in the second half of the war, the New Delhi regiment largely stood by and did nothing.
Therefore, from that moment on, the alliance between the New Delhi Empire and the Devil ceased to exist!
Now, the one who commanded the alliance has died, which doomed the collapse of the alliance on both sides.
The third force, it goes without saying, is the demon that has invaded the human world from the abyss realm!
Under the guidance of the new coalition forces, the steppes began to be restored after the war. However, due to the devastation caused by the war, the entire Savannah Island was almost in a dilapidated state, and the materials needed for restoration could not be delivered from various places in time, so progress was relatively slow.
At this time, Ace and all the troops of the New Alliance were discussing post-war affairs in a makeshift military tent in the ruins of Ancient Star City.
There were more than 30 people in the military tent, which was quite crowded, but the atmosphere inside was very dreary. After all, the losses of all the troops in this war are not small!
In particular, the Elemental Envoy and the Dwarves have lost their homes! How can such a terrible price be recovered in a few years?
After the last war, the new coalition made it clear that Ace was the commander and ***. After all, he is the only one who can stand alone against the King of the Abyss!
In the military tent, everyone's eyes fell
In Ace, waiting for his words.
Ace looked down and thought for a moment, then looked at the Elemental King and asked, "Your Majesty, has the ancient forest really been completely destroyed?"
The Elemental King and all the elementals present made the family members show expressions of extreme pain.
"Yes! Over the past tens of thousands of years, the ancient forests have been able to grow and nurture countless rare flora and fauna, mainly because of the existence of the Tree of Life! The roots of the tree of life, looking in all directions, make every inch of the forest full of life. Today, the Tree of Life has been destroyed, and the ancient woods have been completely burned intact. It is estimated that it will be difficult to recover in the coming decades! 「
The Elemental King's words immediately caused everyone present to shout in a low voice. In particular, the elders of the Elemental Envoy lamented.
Ace frowned, "Once the Tree of Life is dead, is it impossible to restore the ancient forest?"
Simon replied, "Actually, the tree of life originally had two roots, a seed. One was burned in the fire, and the seeds entered the body of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the other was the white wooden stick that Her Majesty used before."
"Originally, we could have used His Majesty's white wooden stick to regenerate the Tree of Life, but in the war that just ended, His Majesty saved ......."
Before Simon could finish speaking, the Elemental King interrupted him with a low cough, "The situation was really urgent, I didn't have time to think about it! In retrospect, I am also very glad that if we had hesitated at that time, we would have faced a more serious defeat in this war!"
Even though the Elemental King had explained the situation and didn't want to put the blame on Ace, Ace still had some guilt and self-blame. After all, because of him, the Elemental Emissaries lost hope of rebuilding their homeland!
Naturally, the Elemental King saw Ace's worries and guilt. He smiled faintly and said, "Nothing! The Elemental Envoy has suffered few casualties, and we can still rebuild our home!"
Ace shook his head helplessly and said, "You can settle down in the savannah for a while. I'll arrange for Thorn Rose to provide enough materials as soon as possible!"
After making improvised arrangements for the follow-up of the Elemental Emissaries, Ace looked at the dwarf King Sumeru again.
Sumeru smiled faintly, "We might be lucky. Although the dwarven kingdom was also destroyed by a volcanic eruption, it will not be reduced to ruins! It will only take two or three years for the kingdom to return to its original state!"
Speaking of this, the old dwarf king sighed, "It's just that there is no defense on the west side of the flint wall, and the barbarians may invade the dwarven kingdom. It's hard to say what the situation will be!"
When Ace heard the news, he was also worried. It seems that the dwarves are temporarily unable to return to the Dwarven Mountains and can only stay in the savannah for the time being.
As for Yalijiang Province and the Savannah, these two places, as two of the most important battlefields of the war, suffered more serious natural damage.
As a result, the new coalition also needed more supplies for post-war reconstruction and repair.
After two or three hours of discussion, Ace assigned each person the corresponding tasks, and then the meeting ended temporarily, and everyone dispersed.
Standing on the ruined walls of Ancient Star City, Ace couldn't help but feel sad and hated demons even more as he looked at the ruins around him.
Just as he was in a trance, a familiar but strange voice sounded behind him: "I say, man, can you not be sullen all the time?"
Hearing this voice, Ace couldn't help but smile calmly. He turned to the man in the golden robe and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you have come here from the Yama Empire!"
This is none other than Ace's good brother, Alexander Fire, the prince of the Yama Empire.
Alexander walked up to Ace, looked up, smiled and cursed him, "Aren't you tired after being busy for so long?"
Ace smiled, then jumped up to Alexander's side.
Alexander looked at Ace and said, "You've grown taller and stronger. What a monster, how long has it been since your strength has become so terrifying?"
Alexander had just arrived yesterday, so he hadn't experienced or witnessed this war before, but he could feel it even hundreds of miles from here
Subjected to the shaking of the ground and terrible shock waves.
Later, Alexander was shocked to hear that Ace had defeated the King of the Abyss alone.
Ace sighed, "There is a certain number in the dark, since God has given me such strength, there must be something for me to do, and only I can do it."
Alexander gave Ace a vicious look and said, "Huh~ I'm curious, why have you made such rapid progress?"
Ace shrugged, "I don't know. All I can say is that I'm lucky."
For such an answer, Alexander, of course, did not believe it, although it may be true.
Instead of continuing on the topic, he asked, "Ace, do you have any plans and plans for what's next?" After all, the new alliance has expanded a lot, and there is a New Delhi empire between them!"
Ace pondered for a moment and said, "This requires the help of your empire."
Alexander looked confused: "Rely on us? What can we do?"
Ace said, "At present, I can't build a transmission array of more than 10,000 kilometers, and there is at least 11,000 kilometers between the savannah and the farthest East Cliff Empire. So I had to build a transit hub between the transport arrays. After thinking about it, the Yama Empire was the best choice."
Alexander stared at Ace, "You're saying you're going to use the so-called teleportation array to connect several empires?"
Ace nodded, "It's the plan, but now may not be the time. After all, the demons could strike again at any moment! Not in the short term. But I can take this opportunity to build a transport array."
Alexander was naturally happy to hear this. After all, this is definitely beneficial to the Yama Empire.
He had heard that Ace's previous alliance had a long line of business. The business line covers the two provinces of Yali River and Yanli, and extends to the grasslands, ancient forests and dwarf kingdoms in the west.
Over the years, all the strengths along the way have benefited a lot, which has greatly improved the predicament they faced. The savannah, in particular, has changed dramatically.
Alexander, of course, wanted the Yama Empire to join the ranks. Now hearing Ace's words, Ace wants to build a teleportation array on the territory of the Yama Empire. He was naturally pleased.
Alexander couldn't help but ask, "How long will it take for this teleportation array to be completed?"
Ace sighed, "Now there is a tricky problem, that is, the materials that need to be prepared in advance. If there are enough materials, it may only take four days to build a transmission array."
Alexander hurriedly asked, "What materials do you need?"
Ace replied, "The most important are the two kinds of stones, the Black Magnet and the Wind Magic Stone."
Alexander frowned, "Black magnets shouldn't be a problem. On the borders of the Yama Empire there was a large desert, which should have been very rich in mineral resources. As for the Wind Stone, I don't know where to find it."
At that moment, a beautiful voice came from behind them, "I know where to find the Wind Stone."
The two men turned to look at them and saw a beautiful fairy looking at them.
Ace's voice suddenly became softer, "Why are you here?"
He didn't know why, he was always defenseless in front of the princess, without any disguise or disguise.
Alexander looks at Ace strangely, which makes Ace feel embarrassed.
Goliath didn't care. She slowly walked up to the two of them and said, "You said you needed a lot of Wind Magic Stones."
Ace nodded, "Yes, I need two kinds of stones with those two attributes to build a teleportation array, which can be used to transmit the energy of spatial magic at different times."
Golia pointed to the northwest, "There are a lot of wind magic stones in the ancient forest."
"But the old forest has been completely destroyed," Ace said.
Goliath waved her hand, "It's okay. Even if the fire burns down the entire forest, it won't have much of an impact on the Wind Stone. In addition, the reserves of wind magic stones there are definitely sufficient. We mine a portion of it every year when we hold a moon worship ceremony."
Ace nodded, "In this way, the material problem is solved
We will arrange personnel to mine as soon as possible."
At this time, Ace's expression changed slightly. He looked up to the east. There was a figure in the distance. At this time, he was coming here.
The man was wearing a black cloak. But it's too far away to see clearly.
From the breath, Ace had already guessed the identity of this person. He couldn't help but mutter, "Coming so soon? Looks like he's got something in mind!"
In the military tent, Ace stood across from the man in the black cloak, silent.
Ace wasn't in a hurry at all. Just watched him quietly.
The man, on the other hand, lowered his head and completely covered his face with a turban. I don't know what I'm thinking.
After a long time, Ace couldn't help it, so he took the lead and said, "There is no one else here. Can't you take off your hood?"
The man listened, hesitated for a moment, and finally took off his heavy black turban, revealing a cold face. It's Hua Tahi.
He turned to face Ace and said coldly, "You guess I'm going to come to you, huh?"
Ace didn't speak, just nodded.
Hua Tahi smiled wryly and said, "To be honest, I don't agree with such a decision in my heart. But now that it's like this, I have no choice but to accept it."
Ace looked at Hatahi with a smile on his face and asked, "Do you think I'll agree to your request?"
Huatahi as usual: "Whether you want it or not, you can only accept it now, can't you?"
Ace smiled and said, "Of course not. I can kill you at any time. Can you believe it?"
Flowerashi wasn't alarmed at all, "I know you won't do that!"
Ace pretended to be curious, "Why? I can do it easily."
Huatahi looked outside the camp and said, "You can, but you can't! Your main enemies now are the demons, not us."
Ace didn't deny it because it was true.
"But even so, you fought in this war, with huge casualties on both sides. Now you've come to beg for peace, do you think we'll agree?" Ace's voice was a little cold.
Hua Tahi hurriedly said, "But you can also see that at the most critical moment, we finally chose to sit on the sidelines instead of throwing stones at you, didn't we? So I think there's room for negotiation between us. And I'm not here for peace, I'm here to make a deal!"
Ace was a little surprised: "Oh? Trade? I'm curious. What chips do you have to trade?"
Huatahi thought for a long time this time, as if to organize his thoughts, and then said, "I promise you that from now on, we will never interfere in the war between you and the demons. Also, I can guarantee that we will not block trade on your borders. But on condition that you can't hold us accountable!"
Ace sneered, "Is that all? Do you think the war with the devil is our responsibility? Don't you think you guys should contribute? More importantly, can you represent the attitude of the entire New Delhi Emperor *** team?"
Ace is well aware that he now has the initiative in his hands, which mainly depends on his strength. Hua Tahi came here completely out of desperation. So he wasn't worried at all and was able to put forward his own requirements exactly as he thought about them.
As it stands, Huatahi is not eligible to trade with him.
It wasn't until Huatahi finally saw the ugly face of the demon that he decided to abandon the alliance for the time being, leaving a glimmer of hope and opportunity for his visit today.
Huatahi patted his chest and said, "I am the current commander of the New Delhi Army, so I can guarantee that the New Delhi Army will not embarrass you in the future."
Ace replied coldly, "To be honest, you don't have this ability!"
Huatahi's eyes were uncertain, but he eventually insisted, "What I want is simple, to secure my current position! You can just say it, and even if you want to kill the new king in the future, I won't stop it. There is only one premise, and that is that you should make sure that my interests are not harmed."
Ace looked at Hua Tahi quietly. After a long time, he
Say, "You're really cruel. For your own sake, even if you kill the new king!"
Huatahi showed no shame. He said, "In such a turbulent world. There's no point in being sincere and loyal, is there?"
Ace sneered, "How dare you say that! Well, since you are so straightforward, I will make it clear that I will not provoke a war, and even if the new king wants to kill you in the future, I will be able to help you. But you've given me too few chips, and I'm not satisfied!"
Hua Tahi asked with a serious expression, "Tell me, what more do you want?" No matter how much money or resources you have, I'll do my best to help you find it."
Ace waved his hand, "I'm not interested in these things. Now I only need one thing, and that is military force."
Hua Tahi's face changed immediately. He wanted to say no, but seeing Ace's ridicule, he swallowed the words in his mouth anyway.
He thought for a moment and gritted his teeth. He seems to have made a decision: "Yes, but there should be no more than 40,000!"
Ace immediately agreed, saying, "Okay, 40,000 is 40,000!" The sooner the better!"
Hua Taxi couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had just said "30,000", maybe Ace would have agreed. But it's too late to regret it now.
"There is one more condition!" Ace continued, "You must send all the goblins controlled by the Empire to the savannah."
"What!" Hua Tahi looked shocked. "How is this possible? Goblins, they are all cash cows of the old nobles of the empire. How can I have so much power to get hold of them all?"
Ace didn't seem to care, "It's all your business, it's none of my business. Do it yourself. If you can't, our deal won't work."
With that, Ace turned and walked out of the camp.
Seeing Ace turn away, Huatahi suddenly became very worried and shouted to him, "Wait a minute! I promise you, but can you guarantee it?"
Ace turned to him and smiled. He knew that Hua Taxi had no choice at this time, and he had no bargaining capital at all.
"Yes, happy cooperation! I hope you can arrange 40,000 soldiers as soon as possible, and all the goblins, you should arrange it as soon as possible!"
After that, Ace patted Huatahi on the shoulder, and then left the military tent with a smile, leaving Huatahi alone, standing in the same place, sighing incessantly.
He even began to wonder if this active trade was the right one!
Three days later, the steppes entered a state of order, and all post-war recuperation was carried out in an orderly manner.
On that day, 40,000 soldiers and horses provided by the New Delhi Empire also came outside the Allied camp, but Ace did not let them in. Instead, he said, "You and I have other arrangements." Then he asked them to stay outside the barracks, set up their own camp and did not talk about it.
Such a decision naturally upset the 40,000 New Delhi soldiers. But they came here under the command of Commander Huatahi. They had to obey Ace's arrangement, so they could only get angry and dare not speak.
At the same time, the Elemental Envoys also sent thousands of Elemental Envoy guards to the ruins of the Ancient Forest to dig up the Wind Demon Stone.
In this way, Ace needs to solve the Wind Demon Stone problem as soon as possible. However, now that he had mastered the magic of time and space to a large extent, he decided to return to the Yama Empire with Alexander and assign the task of mining black magnets as soon as possible.
However, no one can predict when the demon army will next invade. However, considering that the Abyss King's body was injured by Thor's Shiro, it is estimated that he will not be able to fully recover in a short period of time.
