After mutual probing, Du You finally determined the current circumstance of the Divine Fla Empire. They probably intended to test his strength, then weaken it, along with the dissatisfaction from certain nobles toward him.
After all, once he had acquired so land from the south of the Divine Fla Empire, he had driven out the local nobles.
Many of these nobles had their forr territories here, and now without lands—given the not-so-long elapsed ti—there were certainly those who harbored resentnt against him, and not just a few. With these individuals’ maneuvering, one could easily predict the outco.
Similarly, Du You now needed ti and had no choice but to agree to support them.
After so thought, Du You spoke, "How about this, we leave half of our experts here, and we can support you with a hundred. We can send forty Fire Lizard Cavalry and sixty Lava Warriors."
"That’s not enough. This amount of force isn’t even enough for supporting one war zone," Anlute imdiately responded. This negotiation, after all, ca with specified quotas from above for him to et, with the minimum being at least one hundred fifty.
Du You waved his hand, "Hear out. Although we cannot increase our forces, our support in other areas will be substantial. We can supply all the food and weapons required by the most southward battlefront of the Empire as a gesture of our sincerity."
The supply of food and weapons for a warzone was no small number, initially a significant burden for both the border nobles and the Empire. If Du You were to share this burden, it would lessen significantly on his end. Yet, it still wasn’t enough.
Du You continued, "Moreover, in terms of military forces, we can support you with a batch of Gang Blade Cannons."
Upon hearing about the Gang Blade Cannons, a spark of keen light montarily flickered in Anlute’s eyes. "I need to report this matter to His Majesty."
Though the number of troops wasn’t sufficient, the Gang Blade Cannons were no ordinary objects. The Divine Fla Empire had long desired the Shenghai Kingdom’s Gang Blade Cannons, which possessed destructive capabilities so ferocious that, with a sufficient amount, they could even threaten a tier five entity—of course, only a threat, as any tier five being with peculiar thods wouldn’t be killed by such a weapon.
Nevertheless, it was still a deterrent weapon. On many battlefields lacking tier-five presence, the Gang Blade Cannon was simply the ultimate weapon.
The result was as Du You had expected. The Empire had long coveted them, and as early as that very afternoon, Anlute had approached him indicating agreent. What followed then ca easily, with Shaliya coordinating the transport from the rear.
"Rember, the most crucial aspect you need to watch for in this operation is safety. Just focus on your own safety. Sotis, you need not heed their commands if they compromise safety, even if it ans failing the mission,"
Du You told his domain’s specialists. Though he believed losses were trivial, he questioned why he should incur any. Militarily, Du You did not believe the Divine Fla Empire would be inadequate.
To protect these individuals, Du You had even dispatched Luo Jia, the highest military commander of his domain, to coordinate the efforts, ensuring foolproof arrangents. As for the Gang Blade Cannons, Du You was not at all worried.
If the Gang Blade Cannons were so easily replicable, during the Three Kingdoms Battle, the other two nations would have succeeded in their endeavors.
Crucially, the energy employed by the Gang Blade Cannons was entirely different from the energy used in this world; they were incompatible, stemming from different foundations. The issue of research was theirs to headache over.
Not to ntion, these objects were produced by domain buildings, protected by the highest laws. They could be disassembled for observation or repaired, but replicating them from this model was nearly impossible.
The technology of the Gang Blade Cannons was alien to this world, incompatible with the world’s laws. If one tried to design and fabricate based on the original Gang Blade Cannon, they would at best create only a model, never a functioning product. Moreover, a slight mishap could lead to an explosion, potentially even killing several Empire experts.
Otherwise, Du You would not have been so confident in selling his attack weapon.
The developnts that followed were smooth sailing. With so support entering the Divine Fla Empire, he could better grasp their various movents, making it virtually impossible for them to deceive him.
Under Luo Jia’s disruptive and persistent command, the plans intended to weaken his military strengths were essentially shelved. After so ti, out of the hundred experts deployed, not a single one was lost.
At this juncture, Du You began to consider his next moves. Regrettably, he couldn’t afford to leave anyti soon; who knew what the Quicksand Empire might do next? Even though analysis deed it unlikely they would attack him again, he dared not take any chances against a vast empire.
Du You did not want a mont’s negligence to risk his domain being overrun by the Quicksand Empire.
If he lost his domain, the consequences would be significant, and control over this world would also fade. Soon after, given the rules from Earth, it wouldn’t take long before nurous powerful entities from Earth would appear in this world.
At that ti, the world would no longer belong to him alone, and Du You did not wish to make a mistake. Simply waiting was not an option; he needed to take action to capitalize on this period.
Du You did not possess the leisurely mindset of other Professionals who could spend decades or even centuries advancing; in Du You’s eyes, the faster, the better. Since arriving in this world, he had always felt a sense of urgency.
Having spent a few days deliberating, Du You and Shaliya finally settled on a new objective.
"Is this the place? Are you certain now the Quicksand Empire will not pay attention to this area?"
"Definitely not, for a few reasons. First, few know about this location. Second, the Quicksand Empire wouldn’t expect us to strike here. Third, the Quicksand Priests are currently withdrawn and won’t venture here now."
This was an unexpected discovery by Shaliya near a coastal area on their side, where a large underground cavern housed a Sand Snake Nest. It could be said that most of the Sand Snakes for the Quicksand Priests originated from here.
This Sand Snake Nest was reportedly once an extrely powerful force within the Quicksand Empire, harboring a tier-six Sand Snake. However, it was later dealt with by the Quicksand Empire. After signing contracts, the Sand Snakes beca slaves to the Quicksand Priests. Each year, many Quicksand Priests visited to find their pets.
It could be said that among the Quicksand Priests, if the Death Scorpion was ranked first as a pet, then the Sand Snake was second. "There are no tier-sixes, but there are quite a few tier-fives. This really is an excellent place."
