Chapter 833: Chapter 815: New Stage
It took a full week for all the cargo sent by the Sky Alliance to be completely loaded and unloaded. With the departure of the cargo ship, Elder Gandalf, who had been staying in Thunderhawk City for quite a long ti, also left.
As a result, two mbers of the Three Great Alliances had left, leaving only the Great Elder Simonuo of the Magic Energy Research Institute. However, Simonuo didn’t wait long, because shortly after Elder Gandalf left, people from the Magic Energy Research Institute and two major companies arrived.
Since Rocky did not request any materials from the Magic Energy Research Institute, he asked for all technology. Thus, the institute sent a cargo ship, and on this ship was a load full of research materials.
Whether it was intentional or because the research materials were indeed too vast, when the institute’s cargo ship docked, Rocky watched them unload several hundred boxes from the ship, each containing research materials.
Seeing this, Rocky was a bit dumbfounded because he indeed asked for a lot of technology from the Magic Energy Research Institute, but he didn’t expect them to bring so much material. How long would it take him to verify it all?
Luckily, since it was technology-related, Aniye was by his side. Just when Rocky was at a loss, Aniye waved his hand: “Don’t worry, the Magic Energy Research Institute wouldn’t resort to deceit. They just want to annoy you a bit.”
Aniye smiled slightly at Rocky, revealing the little trick of the Magic Energy Research Institute. He was right; as one of the Three Great Alliances and the sanctum of academia, the Magic Energy Research Institute certainly wouldn’t use fake technology to deceive Rocky. This can be guaranteed. However, the fact that they brought so many materials indeed had an ulterior motive—to let Rocky sort through the overwhelming amount of information himself.
But in Aniye’s view, this was rather a good thing. Although organizing these materials was a hassle, the fact that they were preserved at the institute indicates their value. So, if they could really sort through all this material, it would definitely help improve Thunderhawk City’s current technical level.
In such a situation, Aniye personally oversaw the workers as they moved hundreds of boxes of materials to the research institute. Just after that, people from the two companies, Sigma and Uranus, also arrived and brought dozens of cargo ships.
Though Rocky’s request to these two companies was also mainly technology-focused, he also asked them to deliver a large amount of Gold Coin. Originally, these Gold Coins could be stored in Eternal City, as Rocky could store large sums there as a VIP for convenience and transactions. Unfortunately, after recent events, Rocky no longer trusted Eternal City, so he had the two companies transport all the Gold Coins here, too. Thus, on the dozens of cargo ships they dispatched, the only cargo was Gold Coins.
The loading and unloading of Gold Coins was much simpler. Within a day, millions of Gold Coins were moved into the treasury of Thunderhawk City, filling the enormous vault to the brim with gleaming gold.
More importantly, regarding technology, the two companies did not play tricks like the Magic Energy Research Institute did but instead handed over all docunts directly to Rocky—a few boxes, no more.
With this, as Sigma and Uranus also delivered their ‘ransom,’ all hostages in Thunderhawk City were released.
This marked a new phase in the developnt of Thunderhawk City.
Rocky was now extraordinarily wealthy.
He had an innurable amount of Gold Coins and a vast supply of materials. More importantly, he had received a large amount of technology. Faced with so many good things, Rocky felt a bit at a loss on where to start.
So in the following days, he carefully made so plans. The expansion of Thunderhawk City was nearing its end, and the new shipyard was about to be completed, so there wasn’t much need for additional investnt in the city’s developnt.
However, considering the upcoming great war, the demand for Armor and warships would surely increase. There was no worry about warships, as the Apple Tree Corporation had its large shipyard, but Rocky had to make preparations for Armor, so he decided to add another arms factory in Thunderhawk City.
In addition, after witnessing the power of the Asura Cannon during the battle in Eternal City, Rocky decided to not only increase the number of Asura Cannons in Thunderhawk City but also to start working on renovating Carltos City.
Carltos City’s population had not yet t the threshold for an upgrade, but since it was a dium-sized Sky City, implenting the City Armant Plan was still possible. Of course, this also ant letting the Sky City descend once and replacing the Super Crystal. However, with the previous experience, Rocky felt quite confident about this.
Apart from expanding and renovating the city’s facilities, his other developnt focus would be on technology, as his gains from technology this ti far exceeded those from Gold Coins and materials. He not only obtained nurous technologies from the Magic Energy Research Institute but also acquired the technology of Magic Conduction Machines and research data of the sixth-generation Armor. Both of these could be imdiately applied, so after doing so planning for the city, Rocky plunged directly into research.
……
……
On the other side, with the release of all hostages, the conflict between Rocky and the Three Great Alliances was now completely resolved and soon forgotten by people.
In ordinary tis, such a major event would surely have been the subject of intense discussion for a while. Unfortunately, the current situation left no room for idleness, as the brilliant pre-war mobilization eting ended, and the wheels of the third counter-attack war were set in motion. Almost all forces and Sky Cities, except for Rocky, worldwide were engaging in feverish preparations for this impending battle.
Everyone was intensively training troops, purchasing weapons, and stockpiling supplies. Be it small Sky Cities or top forces like the Three Great Alliances; the scenario was the sa. anwhile, the doors of the Apple Tree Corporation were being overwheld ti and again.
There was no choice. At present, the Apple Tree Corporation was the only Chamber of Comrce worldwide selling Rune Battleships externally. Therefore, any City Lord with power was scrambling to place orders for warships here, hoping to form a substantial, organized force in preparation for the fierce battle.
Unfortunately, too many people harbored the sa idea, and more importantly, Rocky had reached a cooperative agreent with the Kafka Empire. Faced with the Empire’s massive order for over a thousand warships and looking at the line of City Lords queuing up daily to purchase warships, Apple Tree Corporation’s Guild President, Pansen, for the first ti felt that being popular was a particularly daunting affair…
