Li Fang finally couldn't help but relent, and said bitterly: "Qianye, don't think that you can do whatever you want in a neutral place. Sooner or later, someone will teach you a lesson."
"Really? I'll wait." Qianye replied indifferently. He had heard too many similar threats and no longer cared about them.
Li Fang was so angry that he puffed up his sleeves and turned around to leave. He looked rather hasty when he left, but he no longer looked as calm and dignified as when he came back.
After he left, Qianye became serious and asked again: "What does this person do? Why is he here?"
Song Zining also said seriously: "This Li Fang still has some real abilities. Although he is a sinecure in the court, he has always studied ways to help the world and has his own opinions on how to establish a complete military and economic system. This person is
A member of the Li family's family background, and his current official position is mostly due to his own true ability. This time the Li family moved to a neutral place, he also moved into a position, hoping to put it to good use here."
"But looking at the way he looked just now, it didn't look like he was here to do something."
Song Zining smiled and said: "Qianye, you don't understand this. The more junior officials with little authority, the greater their official authority and the more arrogant they are, for fear that others will look down on them. On the contrary, they are powerful officials who are often approachable and have no airs.
.”
"Okay, but what are the Li family doing here?"
"Because Li Kuanglan is here. The Li family nominally sent some guards here, but actually three hundred people came."
Qianye frowned and said, "Three hundred people, that's a lot. Who are these people?"
"They are all elite soldiers of the Li family. The ones leading the team are two elders. In another two days, there will be people from the palace coming."
"So many people come to the Neutral Ground? Aren't they afraid of the Blood Throne's backlash?" Qianye's question is not unreasonable. As we all know, the Blood Throne is extremely disgusted with Yongye or the Empire's intervention in the Neutral Ground. That one has even done so many times.
The record of the shot. With the broken years in hand, and the advantage of a neutral home court, even the kings and kings are at risk of falling.
This time the empire sent nearly a thousand elite troops into the neutral ground, which can be said to have broken the previous rules. If the Blood Throne takes action, these people may not be able to leave the neutral ground alive.
However, Song Zining was not worried and said calmly: "Don't worry, this matter involves Empress Li. The old men in the imperial capital are very afraid of death. How can they dare to do such a thing unless they are safe? Now that everyone is here, it means that they
The terms have been negotiated. Although those old guys have no other skills, they are very good at fighting among themselves and negotiating terms."
"Why the Li family?" When they were in the misty forest, Qianye had a very unpleasant quarrel with the Li family. Later, it was the Zhao clan who worked behind the scenes to get the Sky Fengyun Yanzhu back.
Song Zining said matter-of-factly: "Because Kuanglan is here, if they don't come, who else will come?"
The political arena of the empire has always been complicated, and it was even more so when it came to the palace. Song Zining refused to say more. Qianye felt a headache just thinking about it, so he simply put the matter aside and first talked about the mysterious demon young man.
Already.
When Song Zining heard this, he knew that the matter was serious. He put away his happy expression and mused: "So, the devil has produced another genius who is comparable to the witch? No, he should have existed for a long time, but he hid it very well, so he has never been there.
It's known. If he comes too, it will be really difficult. What are you going to do?"
"Enter the wilderness again and choose the opportunity to fight. The demons are severely restricted in the neutral land. No matter how strong they are, they will always have a way to deal with them."
Song Zining nodded. This is the best way to bring out Qianye's combat power. In the wilderness or misty forest of a neutral land, Qianye's combat power can be greatly improved. Even a marquis can be attacked by Qianye first.
Very likely to be killed on the spot.
But then he remembered something, his face changed drastically, and he said anxiously: "Wait! If that demon descendant came with the vanguard..."
Song Zining immediately ordered someone to get a route map of the neutral ground, and drew more than ten lines on it. The more he drew the lines, the uglier he became. He stepped back and asked Qianye: "Can your Hall of Heroes now?"
Sailing in the void?"
"Of course it can. It's just that the outer wall hasn't been built yet, so people with weak combat power may not be able to survive on it for a long time. I'm afraid only half of the existing manpower can do the job."
Song Zining raised his eyebrows and said: "I will give you fifteen more people. This is the limit I can distinguish. But half of them are craftsmen. If we really fight, we must protect them."
"Want to fight in outer space?"
Song Zining nodded, pointed to a certain place on the route map, and said solemnly: "The last batch of engines and ballistas from Ningyuan Heavy Industry are already on the way. Although no one knows about this secret route, it is connected to the Yongye Demon Continent.
There are several approaching points on the route to the neutral land. If the Evernight follow-up troops are already on the way to the neutral land, then it is possible that they will collide with our transport fleet at this location in three days. This ship
We also have a batch of high-performance alloys in the team, so we can’t afford to lose them.”
Qianye looked at the route map and said slowly: "You mean, I will drive the Hall of Heroes to meet you?"
Song Zining nodded, "This is the only way. Whether it is this transport fleet or your Hall of Heroes, now is not the time to let those in the Li family know about it. After you receive the transport fleet, you can directly dock and unload the goods in the void.
Then let the transport fleet return the way it came. Send the craftsmen and crew members who came with the fleet directly to the Hall of Valor to work. These people are all reliable and they are the team I have trained for many years."
After saying that, Song Zining patted Qianye on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I've given you everything I have now. If you want anything more, you'll have nothing left."
Until this moment, Qianye didn't know Song Zining's true net worth. At such a young age, the Seventh Young Master could already see the shadow of the word "rich as a country". With the true strength of Ningyuan Heavy Industry, he could independently support a low-class family. If
Give Song Zining another two or three years to thoroughly understand the new alloy formula. By then, he will be qualified to be the mainstay of a top-grade family.
The people in the Song clan have a really keen sense of smell in this regard, and they tried every means to get the control of Ningyuan Heavy Industry. Unfortunately, Song Zian was not born at the right time. He originally had an excellent opportunity, but he happened to meet Qianye and was defeated.
Qianye turned the situation around with his own efforts. Otherwise, if Song Zian had taken Song Zining away, I don't know what would have happened.
And now, in the short time since Song Zining arrived in the neutral land, he has moved most of Ningyuan Heavy Industry's wealth, and most of the accumulation will eventually be invested in Qianye's Hall of Heroes. The Hall of Heroes is unusually floating.
The battleship is based on the bones of the Earth Strider, and its control mainly relies on the remaining will of the Earth Strider. Now unless Qianye is killed, no one can take away the Hall of Heroes.
Song Zining was indeed not exaggerating. If he invested his assets in the Hall of Heroes, he would never get them back. Even Qianye himself didn't understand why Song Zining was so concerned about the Hall of Heroes.
However, Qianye was still worried and couldn't help but ask: "Can you handle it if I leave?"
Song Zining disagreed and said: "Aren't Kuanglan and Tianqing still here? I can't let them go out and take risks, but if the demon comes to knock on the door, it won't be my responsibility."
Qianye was speechless. Now that he thought about it, he could only rest assured if he left early and returned early. He simply didn't even return to Nan Qingcheng and went back to the wilderness. He chose a deserted direction and ran for half a day. When he saw no one was following him,
Fang jumped up and flew high into the sky.
The huge hull of the Hall of Heroes loomed in the clouds, gliding silently. Qianye flew directly into the ship from the opening on the side, and then the giant ship seemed to have come to life, raising its head to the sky and flying higher and higher.
, flying straight into the endless void.
There are dozens of crew members in the Hall of Valor, and most of them are busy pushing an engine to the designated position. After the engine is in place, several craftsmen come over and start inspection and debugging one by one.
About one-third of the people in the Hall of Heroes are Gaohu people, and most of them are natural mechanical craftsmen. The other ones are Song Zining's confidants sent from Ningyuan Heavy Industry. There are craftsmen in this group, and there are also ten very powerful and experienced people.
Rich warriors. This group of warriors can serve as efficient laborers at ordinary times, and at critical moments they are the core force for protecting the facilities inside the ship. In fact, they are guarding against the Gaohu people, and Song Zining instinctively does not trust any outsiders.
Qianye entered the ship. The crew members respectfully greeted "Sir" and continued to do their own business. The Hall of Valor was too huge. Just the power sails needed to be equipped with dozens of them, and there were more than a hundred engines of various sizes.
, the amount of work is so huge that it may take more than ten years for these dozens of people to finish it.
Qianye clapped his hands, raised his voice, and said: "We are about to enter the void. All people below level five will stop working immediately and enter the cabin to rest. Those above level five will be on standby at their respective posts."
These crew members have long had a division of labor. They are craftsmen in peacetime. In wartime, some are responsible for lookouts, some are responsible for ballistas, and some are responsible for controlling engines and power sails. Now there are too few people, so they can only start two engines.
Raise a power sail. As for the ballista placed in the mouth of the ground strider's skull, Qianye can only operate it himself.
Qianye gave an order, and the undermanned crew returned to the partially built crew cabin and closed the door firmly.
After they all returned to the cabin, Qianye controlled the Hall of Heroes to jump up, broke out of the protective layer of the East China Sea continent, and sailed into the vast void.
At this moment, the Hall of Heroes still looks like the skeleton of a giant void beast from a distance, but on the skeleton around the heart, body tissue is spreading and growing, closing the chest cavity. According to Qingyue and Song Zining, these bodies are
The best hull materials. The tyranny of the void beast cannot be compared to those of the empire's warships.
However, the growth of these bodies relies on the energy of the Earth Strider's heart, and the process is very slow, so it needs to be supplemented by artificial construction of the hull. However, the Earth Strider's body is so huge that just building the hull is probably equivalent to several motherships.
As soon as it entered the void, the entire body of the Hall of Valor shone with faint light and flew to the predetermined location.
