Although Zhao Jundu said this and knew about his genius and ability, Qianye was still not optimistic. No matter how magical the super-grade raw crystal was, it was still an external object. For the King of Heaven who pays attention to the true and pure, any
Foreign objects mean that the road is cut off. Perhaps becoming a god general has been a lifelong dream for many people, but for Zhao Jundu, not reaching the king of heaven means failure.
If Zhao Jundu had not entered Baicheng that day, he would not have damaged the foundation.
Song Zining broke the somewhat solemn atmosphere, changed the subject, and asked: "What does this base do, and why is it making such a big noise?"
Zhao Jundu said: "It's okay to talk to you. Anyway, it won't be a secret after a while. This is the forward base prepared by the empire for landing in the new world. Because time is tight, we will proceed in this wartime mode."
"Is there any news about the new world?" Qianye also pricked up his ears.
Zhao Jundu nodded, "I finally got some definite news from Yong Ye. When the new world opens, entrances to the new world will appear on many continents. Well... it's similar to the Great Whirlpool. According to Tianji's many sources, everyone
It is estimated that an entrance will appear in this area above the Qin Continent, so the empire decided to build a base here in advance, just in case."
"If there are so many entrances to the new world, what are the giants of Yongye doing?"
"They should open the door."
At this point, Qianye and Song Zining understood. Song Zining said: "In other words, when the entrance here opens, we are likely to encounter a strong person from the dark race inside."
"That's how it should be."
There was a hint of worry on Song Zining's face, and he sighed: "They got the better of us this time."
Since the door to the new world is opened by the dark race, the first batch of powerful people to enter are naturally from the Yongye side. By the time other exits are opened and the empire can enter, it will already fall behind.
Zhao Jundu said: "There is nothing to regret. Judging from the news we have received so far, Yong Ye has been preparing for the arrival of the new world for thousands of years. But all the secrets are in the hands of the Supremes of the Holy Mountain, and they are the only ones.
Only then can we perceive the opportunity of the opening of the new world. This cannot compete with them. But just like the maelstrom, there is no need to care about temporary gains and losses."
Later, Zhao Jundu also asked Qianye about the development of Yonglu, and was surprised to learn that the most important batch of aid came from Empress Li. However, Empress Li has always acted in an unpredictable manner, and the three of them were young after all.
We discussed it together for a long time, but we couldn't come up with a reason. We still didn't understand why Empress Li looked at Qianye with new eyes. Song Zining's expression was always very natural, so nothing would be noticed.
Qianye's progress in Yonglu went very smoothly, and Zhao Jundu had no advice to give. He just ordered a batch of weapons and equipment within the scope of his authority and ordered them to be sent to Yonglu. With the example of Empress Li, no one could do this.
What is the whereabouts of this batch of equipment? Moreover, it is not given away in vain. Qianye needs to compensate it with the price of various mineral resources produced by Yonglu. The compensation period can be extended to three years. It can be regarded as falling into the empire's normal trade with third parties.
This just alleviates Qianye's urgent need. However, the empire's thousand-year-old foundation is not in a hurry. It hoards as much rare minerals as it can and slowly digests them, so that it can maximize the value. This transaction can be said to be a case where everyone gets what they want.
need.
The base here has been regarded as a top-secret place for the empire's recent war preparations. Although Zhao Jundu is the chief official here, Song Zining and Qianye cannot stay longer. After chatting, they are ready to leave.
The two were about to leave when an officer rushed over and said: "Lord Jundu, we have the latest secret report!"
"speak."
The officer glanced at Qianye and Song Zining, and reminded in a low voice: "Sir, this is the highest level secret report. It can only be reviewed by you alone, and no other people are allowed to be present."
Zhao Jundu ignored it, reached for the secret report document bag, casually opened the sealed Force Seal, glanced at it, let out a light sigh, and looked thoughtful.
The officer didn't dare to really accuse anything and could only stand aside.
Zhao Jundu raised his head and said to Qianye: "Xiao Wu, when you return there, you must be careful. The big shots above do not intend to watch Yong Ye open the door to the new world so easily, and are determined to destroy it. No matter whether this move succeeds or fails, I'm afraid
This will cause a strong backlash from the dark races. It's okay for Zining to be in the empire, but you should be careful when you are alone outside."
Qianye said: "Yonglu is remote and desolate, and the gain of sending a large army outweighs the losses. If only a few strong men come alone, I won't be afraid."
"That's good."
Zhao Jundu didn't keep them much longer, and ordered Qianye and Song Zining to be sent to the aerospace boat, and then went back to supervise the construction of the base. When leaving, Qianye suddenly felt uneasy for no reason, and he didn't know why.
Deep in the void, an aerostat with a shabby appearance was speeding along. It flew steadily and fast, which was definitely not what an old cargo ship should do. It was clearly disguised.
It bypassed a group of outer floating islands, and with the help of the cover of these uninhabited floating islands, it landed quietly on a remote edge of the Twilight Continent. Several people stepped off the airship, one of whom was wearing a hooded cloak, his face hidden in the shadows.
Inside, the aura of the whole body was almost non-existent, and even the race could not be discerned. And the others were actually human race.
A middle-aged man took out a tightly sealed wooden box and handed it to the mysterious man. He said, "How to open it and when to open it. Do you remember it?"
"Remember."
"Okay, don't let us down."
Several people returned to the aerostat, leaving only the mysterious man outside. Immediately, the aerostat took off and flew away. The mysterious man watched the aerostat go away. When he raised his head, he finally revealed his face, with a pair of eyes filled with blood and energy.
He is a vampire.
After the aerostat disappeared into the void, he lowered his hood and quickly walked away, disappearing into the undulating mountains of the Twilight Continent.
On the outskirts of the Twilight Continent, there stands an ancient and elegant castle. It was built on a straight and steep mountain peak, overlooking the vast plain below. There are traces of wind and frost everywhere on the cliffs, but there are also ancient vines and small trees growing tenaciously, and under the traces of time
Under the cover, the remaining traces of the past wars can still be seen. Some traces of slashing and slashing with swords even stretch for tens of meters.
The Castle of Decius is one of the oldest and most famous castles in the Twilight Continent. In the Age of Strife, it was the forefront of the battle between the Vampire Race and other dark races, and countless battles took place here.
Later, the human race awakened to the force of dawn. When Taizu led the human race to fight out of the Twilight Continent, he also captured the Castle of Decius and repelled the vampire's pursuit troops here several times. In the end, more than half of the rebellious humans successfully escaped from the Twilight Continent.
The Light Continent, far away from the eternal night, took the first step towards the founding of the Qin Dynasty.
At this time, in this ancient castle where every stone brick is full of stories, fully armed elite warriors of the blood clan can be seen everywhere. Each patrol team has a strong man with a title, and the guard level has been raised to an extremely high level.
This is not unusual. You must know that since the awakened human race came out of the Twilight Continent, there have been few wars in this area. In the past thousand years, disputes between other dark races and the blood race have rarely ignited the flames of war in the core area of the blood race.
When the Twilight Continent comes up, it mostly happens in the lower or middle-level continents where races are mixed. There are usually only a few soldiers stationed in the Castle of Decius, but now, the number of garrison troops alone is ten more than before.
times.
The main building of the castle was filled with a chilling atmosphere. As long as they got even slightly closer, the vampire warriors would feel the trembling coming from the depths of their blood. This was the natural intimidation of the upper-level vampires towards the lower-level ones.
The vampire warriors in the castle now all come from the twelve ancient clans, and their own bloodline is quite superior. However, within tens of meters around the main building, there is not a group of patrolling warriors, and even the powerful knights only appear occasionally.
He passed by in a hurry and didn't want to stay longer. This shows how terrifying the bloodline suppression in the main building is.
As for the lack of guards in the main building, it is actually not a problem at all. If anyone tries to sneak into the main building at this time, he is really seeking death.
The main building of the castle has four floors. The hall on the ground floor is extremely grand. The upper floor is a hollow structure with a dome supported by countless giant pillars. It is a commanding fortress. Only the second and third floors are inhabitable. Some counts live on the second floor.
The residence of the Viscount, and there were only three rooms on the huge third floor, each of which had its own owner. The original person in charge of the Castle of Decius, Count Pinode, had no choice but to squeeze in on the second floor.
Although the high-ranking vampires living on the third floor deliberately suppressed their aura, the faint and faint coercion stirred up each other, making people breathless.
A vampire viscount hurriedly entered the main building and went straight to the third floor. After carefully identifying the family emblem on the door, he lightly knocked on the door knocker.
"Come in." A cold and crisp voice came from behind the door, and the thick bronze door opened on its own.
The Viscount walked into the door. Behind the door was a spacious living room. Every piece of furniture and ornaments in the hall was at least a hundred years old. The carvings were delicate and ubiquitous, and the carvings were just right. They interpreted the gorgeousness without being too dense. On the big sofa
, sat a vampire girl in black, flipping through a thick ancient scroll without even raising her eyelids.
The pulsation of the Viscount's blood core involuntarily accelerated a little, and his breathing became a little heavy. However, he controlled his emotions very well and did not touch the boundary of impoliteness.
Although the girl on the sofa is privately considered to be one of the most beautiful vampires in history and can compete with the Queen of the Night in appearance, her terrifying strength has also been proven. She can crush anyone with just a finger.
A dead Viscount.
"Your Highness Nighteye, there is a viscount from the lower continent who claims to be one of your tribesmen and wants to see you."
Nighteye was still looking at the ancient scroll in his hand and said: "Lower continent, my people? Are they a branch of whose family?"
"No, he said he came from Eternal Night."
"Yong Ye?" Ye Tong finally raised his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Let him come in."
A moment later, a vampire viscount appeared in front of Ye Tong. His long light gray hair looked a bit messy, the blood in his eyes was dim, his face was as pale as paper, and his eye sockets were sunken deeply. As a
Viscount, he is obviously very miserable.
He first stared at Ye Tong for a while, and after a while he realized his rudeness, lowered his head hurriedly, and asked: "Are you His Highness Ye Tong?"
There was blood in the depths of Ye Tong's eyes, reflecting him in her eyes. In the turbid smell of blood, she found a familiar smell, which gradually overlapped with long-standing memories, and also awakened those who had been sleeping, and the bloodline awakening
memories from before.
"On the territory...are you okay now?" Nighteye asked.
