Chapter 743: Resources are like a tide
"Whew, count them as acquaintances. Seeing the ghost spider and the others retreat, Mei Sanhan let out a long breath.
Luan Yushu looked at the two hurricane ships of the Yue Kingdom that began to turn around and said, "Chang Feng, if they don't retreat, will you really order the first attack?"
"Yes, of course. Chang Feng replied unusually neatly.
"If a full-scale war breaks out, we are no match for the Yue Kingdom at all. Luan Yushu's eyes widened, almost unable to believe Chang Feng's decision.
In the past exploration of the open sea and even in the battle for other resources, it is not uncommon for similar things to happen, in the face of the powerful Seven Kingdoms of Mountains and Seas, most of the time, it is the forces of the rivers and lakes that give in and suffer dumb losses.
"I know that we are not the opponent of the Yue Kingdom, but even if we attack first, the Yue Kingdom will never dare to start a war with us. Chang Feng gave a clear answer, and then explained directly without waiting for Luan Yushu to ask:
"Shanhai Kingdom has just made a big fight against the Jianghu forces, no matter what the purpose is, it will not be too persecutive to the Jianghu forces now, for Shanhai Kingdom, stability is overriding everything at this time, they will definitely not sit idly by and watch us start a war with Yue Guo, otherwise there will be no order at a critical moment. ”
"What's more, we still have the opportunity to occupy the reason, and we are still the number one sect in the rivers and lakes, the leader of the forces in the rivers and lakes, as long as the ghost spider is not crazy, he will not dare to start a war with us. ”
After listening to Chang Feng, Luan Yushu also touched his forehead, and turned to Mei Sanhan and said: "The older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous we are, Elder Mei, are we too timid when we get old?"
"No, we're worried too much. Mei Sanhan shook his head and responded, and then said, "No wonder Master Chu reuses young people? They have a lot more courage than us. ”
"Yes, Elder Mei, you're right. This time, Luan Yushu nodded again and again.
"Two, don't be there to compliment me in disguise, I forced the Yue Kingdom to retreat, and the Shanhai Kingdom also issued an order, I don't think there will be other forces coming to fight for it, and we should do the right thing. ”
After saying a word to the two of them, Chang Feng immediately issued an order in succession: "Elder Ma, you quickly dispatch five spirit ships to the sea area where the accident occurred to rescue the disciples of this sect, and also count the casualties of this sect in the sea disaster, and tell me as soon as possible." ”
"Deputy Head Luan, Elder Meng, Elder Cai, and Elder Xia, the three of you immediately arrange for the disciples of this sect to explore and exploit resources, especially don't let go of the resources under the sea. ”
"Elder Mei and Elder Xu, the two of you will lead the disciples of the Sect's Political Affairs Hall and Law Enforcement Hall to patrol the sea areas we occupy, vigilance and law enforcement, and ensure the safety of the disciples of the Sect and all harvests.
"Yes. As soon as he answered, all the elders immediately took action, and all the monks of the Xuantian Sect were also busy.
......
No matter how much scramble and fighting, and no matter how many ships and monks were damaged by the various forces in the sea disaster thunder dragon sucking water, under the coordination of the mountain and sea country, after three days, the entire resource island sea calmed down, no matter whether there was more or less grabbing, all the forces immediately invested in the exploration and mining of the resource island.
It was also at this time that Chang Feng convened a meeting of the Council of Elders, including the consul elders of the three affiliated sects, on the flagship.
Ma Le first reported to Chang Feng about the losses of the Xuantian Sect in the sea disaster: "Elder Chang, elders, in the sea disaster, eight spirit ships of this sect were struck by lightning many times and sank into the sea, and the other seventeen spirit ships were severely damaged, although they did not sink, they needed time to rest, and nine of them may not be able to catch up with the time for the fleet to set sail again." ”
"In addition, in the sea disaster, the sect lost a total of more than 6,300 disciples, including six Yuanying elders, seventy-eight deacons of the Jiedan, and the rest were all elite disciples of the sect. ”
"So much!" After listening to Ma Le's report, Chang Feng also frowned, he didn't expect that a single thunder dragon water absorption would cause Xuantian Sect to lose nearly twenty spirit ships, accounting for one-sixth of ordinary spirit ships.
It doesn't seem like much, but in fact it is a heavy loss, you know, this is the beginning of the tide of resources in the open sea, they have only entered the open sea for a little more than half a year, and there are still more than two years to go, God knows what will happen.
"What about the other forces of the Five Sects and the Four Sects?" Chang Feng needed to know the losses of the other forces in order to know in his heart, the most important of which was the situation of the other Jianghu forces, which had a direct relationship with them.
Ma Le obviously also had an investigation at this point, and then directly responded: "The Yin Corpse Sect has suffered the greatest loss, because the government decree is not working, at least thirty spirit ships have been sunk this time, followed by the Yumi Zhao family and the Heavenly Demon Sect, they are not very lucky, at least twenty spirit ships have sunk, and there are a lot of injured, as for the other forces in the rivers and lakes, the losses are not much different from ours." ”
Because of the reference, Xuantian Sect was not the one who lost the most, and everyone was very relieved, and then nodded and discussed for a while, and the sadness and heartache on their faces were reduced a lot.
The situation of the Yin Corpse Sect was expected, they had just replaced the Netherworld Sect, and the Netherworld Sect was destroyed, and the remaining Soul Sect was also dissatisfied with it, so it was strange that the manpower raised in a hurry could be unblocked.
In fact, at the beginning, the Yin Corpse Sect was considered to be the one among the nine major forces that had gained the least in this wave of resources in the open sea.
As for the Yumi Zhao family and the Heavenly Demon Sect, then I can only hope that their luck is not very good.
"It seems that luck is very important in the tide of offshore resources. Muttering in a low voice, Chang Feng turned to ask, "Elder Mei, how much harvest can we estimate in the sea area we occupy?"
Hearing Chang Feng's question, all the elders swept away the slightly painful faces before, Mei Sanhan bowed his hand to Chang Feng, and then said to everyone with a smile:
"Elder Chang, because he seized the opportunity, this sect has become the one that occupies the most extensive sea area among the five sects, four families, and nine major rivers and lakes, but this is not the most important. ”
"Of the hundred miles of sea occupied by this sect, there are one hundred and fifty-three large and small islands, and forty-five islands with rich ores, of which seventeen are large islands and twenty-eight small islands. ”
"Among these islands, there are five top-grade spirit stone mines, and the rest of the resources are also Wuguang Xuantian, Black Rock Crystal, Soul Condensing Stone, Ten Thousand Years Cold Essence, Yin Yin Xuantie and other high-grade minerals in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, in addition, among these islands, one is rich in Immortal Material, Yaoyang Hematite Essence, and the other is rich in Immortal Flame Purple Copper Essence. ”
Although it was only a few words of simple answer, after listening to Mei Sanhan's narration, everyone present was excited, Bao Wanli, the deputy head of Tianji Sect, Tian Qing, the elder of Taixumen, Xu Zhong, Cai Ya and others were all gearing up, shouting for God's favor, even the old monk of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect Juedu couldn't settle down, and the Buddha beads in his hands turned quickly, looking extremely excited.
Seeing that everyone was extremely excited, and the whispered discussion continued, Mei Sanhan waved his hand to signal everyone to stop talking and continued:
"Everyone, everyone, this is on the island, under our sea area, in addition to the deep-sea pearl mussel, a deep-sea ice mine was found in a trench, obediently, it is a top-level immortal material!"
"Elder Chang, everyone, this area we have seized is probably the core area of the resource island this time, just after all these resources are mined, it is enough for the sect to use it for more than three hundred years, the tide of resources in the open sea, it is really like a tide!"
"Elder Mei is right, although the sea area we occupy is only a hundred miles, far less than the sea areas and islands occupied by the Seven Kingdoms of Mountains and Seas or the three major foreign races, but when it comes to the resources that can be developed, it is definitely not less than the Xirong and Beihu forces that occupy four or five hundred miles of sea areas. ”
"According to the information we have obtained now, Beihu has found a total of more than thirty resource islands that can be mined in the five hundred miles of sea they occupy, as for other sects such as the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Sea Immortal Sect, although they occupy a lot of sea areas, the most is only about twenty resource islands. ”
After Mei Sanhan, Luan Yushu also echoed two sentences, his face was full of excitement, in the recorded tide of resources in the open sea, Xuantian Sect had never had such luck against the sky.
For a while, all the elders of the Shanhai Kingdom were overjoyed, and they almost raised their arms and shouted at the sky and smiled, but after listening to these reports, Chang Feng's brows rarely wrinkled into the word "Chuan".
