Starting from Zero

Seeing that the two of us are so enthusiastic, Woma quickly poured cold water on us. "You'd better not hold too much hope. Even if you can actually build a flying machine, it is probably not controllable by ordinary people."

The rose standing next to it asked: "Don't we have air turbines? If it can be miniaturized, how about using it to build an airplane?"

Woma shook his head. "The volume of the air turbine itself is difficult to shrink, and the volume of the magic crystal power extractor is also very large, even if it uses a single propeller, it will not be much smaller."

"That is to say, it is very large. There’s no problem with the sky fortress, but you can’t build a small plane, right?"

"Almost!"

I said to Woma: "Don't care about so much now, your technical department should pay attention to the research. That's it. Success is the best, and failure is nothing. By the way, the most urgent thing now is to study the energy extractor."

"What energy extractor?" Ashford was alert. A key issue was found.

"It’s useless if you know it, because this technology involves a rare mineral, and this mineral is only so small. Even if we develop this technology, we can only use it by ourselves, so don’t ask. Yes. By the way, will you come all the way to see Isinger just to see my new city?"

Ashford said with a smile: "Of course not. I have one more. I want to tell you very important news."

"What news?"

"News from East Timor."

I heard it was from East Timor. The news from Bian immediately came to mind. Last time East Timor was bought by the Japanese, and then I planned to grab East Timor, but I heard Ashford said that the Americans would also do it, so I didn’t do it. Later, I happened to encounter the Four Divine Beasts incident, which was delayed in the middle. It’s been a long time, and it’s almost half a month until now. I don’t know how things are going. I said to Ashford: "That land is now occupied by the Americans?"

Ashford immediately shook the head: "If it is occupied by the Americans, why would I come to you? "

"Huh? The Americans didn't grab that piece of land?"

Ashford nodded: "No, they failed."

"So the Japanese occupied it? How could this happen? Are the Japanese so powerful?"

Ashford said: "You really underestimate the power of the Japanese, but the land is also It's not in the hands of the Japanese like you think."

"I'm confused by you, what is going on?"

"It's very complicated. "Ashford explained: "On the final day of determination, the Japanese sent a large number of battleships to the area and concentrated a lot of forces to defend the city. There were also many Americans who attacked, but there was a point. Question. The Americans who participated in the war did not discuss it beforehand. They all wanted to swallow the land, but they had not yet exchanged fire with the Japanese. They had already suffered both sides."

" What about?"

"After that, it will be more interesting." Ashford smiled and said: "Hehe, does your observation ship only report to here?"

Ah This guy Xiufu is really good at selling things. In fact, before the battle in East Timor started, I had already sent an observation ship to monitor the scene. It is said that I can know what happened, but human's calculation are inferior to the heavens calculation. At that time, there was a foggy weather in the Sea Territory near East Timor. Three of my observation ships hit the rocks and one washed up on the coast. In the end, one of the two remaining ships had a mechanical failure and was forced to return, while the other one was watching the battle. I was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet fired by the Americans, so my information was gone only here. Later, our own side was too busy, and we couldn't control any social affairs that happened.

I have no choice but to sell Ashford now, so I have to drag him to the luxurious reception room on top of Isengard to collect information while serving tea and handing water. Ashford spent a long time admiring the artwork in my luxurious reception room and putting it up for a while before opening the mouth and said: "In fact, it's not just you, I'm also confused."

"How do you tell?"

"The American forces involved in the battle for East Timor were divided into three main forces. Your monitoring ship has seen these three forces. They were surprised in the melee. I sank your observation ship, am I right?"

"Well." I nodded. "What happened later?"

"Later, it was lively." Ashford said with a smile: "After the American fleet melee, the three parties knew that they had no ability to snatch East Timor from the Japanese. , So they chose to retreat very wisely. I thought the matter was over. Who knew that another fleet appeared, and this fleet is still my acquaintance."

"Your acquaintance?"< /p>

Ashford said: "In fact, you have seen it too, I don’t know if you remember it. His name is Silo Paderek, he is the heir of the German Paderek family. You saw Over time. That guy is my main competitor in Germany. After the Americans are gone, Silo Paderek's fleet arrived, and quickly took over the American positions and began to approach East Timor. This fleet is large in number. It’s terrifying. No one on my intelligence network in Germany told me that Paderek has so many battleships. Fortunately, he exposed his strength for this battle, otherwise I’m afraid he will be calculated."

"How did they fight the Japanese?"

Axiu Fude immediately said: "They and Japan simply didn't get involved."

"Huh? How come there is no exchange of fire? Are they going to help the Japanese defend?"

"No."

"Then why not exchange of fire."

" Because there is a new fleet here."

"Damn! Who has come out again? This battle is really the world's attention!"

Ashford said: "That’s why I said this battle was particularly chaotic! When Paderek’s fleet was about to come into contact with the Japanese, a new fleet suddenly appeared. This is a fleet from Australia. I didn’t know that there was another one like this before. Fleet."

"Is it special?"

"Special, very special. Although Paderek’s fleet is not as super battleship as yours, their strength should not be underestimated. Yes, at least their number can not be easily eliminated. But this Australian fleet has won. Their fleet battleship is only half of the Paderek fleet, but the battle has been easily resolved."

< p>"Should they have missiles?"

"That's not it." Ashford's words relieved me a little, but his subsequent words made me worry again. Ashford said: "All the battleships in this Australian fleet are equipped with a super fast gun. The firepower of this gun is not outstanding. My people say that the formidable power of the cannonball is far inferior to that of your guild. The formidable power of the shells is large, but the rate of fire of that kind of gun is crazy. The artillery on the battleship is almost like a semi-automatic rifle, almost two shots in three seconds. Although the formidable power of a single shell is not good, it is so dense and large. No one can stand it! Paderek's fleet only had time to complete two salvos and it was all over."

"This is too fierce, right?"

"In my opinion, this type of artillery is totally winning by quantity. If the same battleship is shot in too many at the same time, the shock waves generated by the explosion will interfere with each other. The battleship is not penetrated by the shells but is shocked by the cross interference of the shock waves. Dispersed. Even if equipped with super armor like your battleship, as long as it cannot resist high-frequency shock waves, it will be scattered. The thicker the armor, the more likely to break, so your large battleship is not as good as a small battleship. Reliable."

I shook my head: "No, my battleship has a mirage system. They can't see us, and my range is absolutely above them. Even if they rush to our vicinity and I found out where we are. I also have an air-to-air sound barrier system, which can easily intercept barrage attacks such as grenade bombs. Super battleships are not called super battleships because they are big. All the equipment of the super battleship is super. , Don’t think that my battleship can be sunk easily."

Ashford said: "Pardrick also said that his fleet is invincible. Wasn’t it sunk in the end?"

p>

"This is different. It’s not certain if you don’t meet to fight a battle together. I won’t discuss this now, let me know what happened? What happened after Paderek’s fleet sank? This fleet was fighting with the Japanese. Are you on it?"

Axiuford shook the head again: "After the Australian fleet wiped out Paderek's fleet, it did want to fight the Japanese, but at this time another appeared The fleet of the American guild. Because they came late, they just avoided the scuffle of the three major American guilds, but they met the Australian fleet."

"Pardrick’s fleet is Can't beat the Australian fleet, doesn't this new fleet mean to die?"

"The result was just the opposite." Ashford smiled and said: "This time the incident is really too dramatic. The cannons of the Australian fleet do have formidable power, but they do not The speed of ammunition consumption is the same as their formidable power terrifying. After killing Paderek's fleet, Australia's fleet has almost used up all the shells, and the remaining shells are not enough to form a barrage, and their shells formidable power are too small, and a single shot is meaningless. "

"You mean they were wiped out without shells?" "

"The Australians knew that their artillery was a waste of shells, so they carried a lot of supply ships behind their fleet, but they had just finished fighting the Americans with Paderek's fleet. The cannonballs were transported on the supply ship, but the Americans ended up taking it in one go. "

"It's so miserable! "

Axiu Fude said excitedly: "The misery is yet to come!" After the Americans wiped out the Australian fleet, they also lost some battleships. After all, this American guild was not a super guild. As a result, their battleship was prepared to defend the Japanese who were attacking East Timor with injuries. But the Japanese watched a good show for a long time, and they couldn't help it. They decided to take part in the show on their own. "

"Then the American guild is over? "

Ashford nodded. "The guild's fleet was beaten severely by the Japanese fleet without even setting up its formation, and in the end not even a ship ran away. "

"So the Japanese should have succeeded in defense? Why do you say that the Japanese did not catch it? "

"The Japanese also have an idea with you. They think that they have finally succeeded in defense. Originally, they stocked a large number of unmanned personnel and ammunition to prepare for this attack. They didn't expect the attackers to each other. Fighting, and finally let them pick up a ready-made bargain. Before the Japanese had time to celebrate the victory, another new fleet appeared. "

"Any new people appear? "

Axiuford laughed: "This time the fleet is very famous, and you will meet with them." "

"Meet me? Is it the South Korean fleet? "

"Reminder, it's a silver white battleship. "

"silver white ...? Is it the Empire Fleet? The British are also stranded? "

"haha! Who says the wood in East Timor is so valuable? Who can't see it? The British imperial fleet never left the European Sea Territory before, but this time it rushed from Europe to Asia. There are indeed a lot of Japanese fleets, but it is still not enough to see the old naval powers. In a total of twenty minutes, the British sent all the Japanese battleships to the seabed. "

"So East Timor is controlled by the British? "

"No! "Ashford's answer surprised me.

"Could there be a new fleet again, right?" "

"There is indeed a new fleet, but this fleet is not very good. This new fleet is French, and there are not many. Their battle with the British was quickly over. The French lost one third battleship, and the rest ran back. The British lost a third battleship from the time they appeared to the victory over these battleships. However, the remaining battleships cooperated with ground forces to capture cities on land and seized East Timor. "

"Then how do you say that the British did not get the city?" "

"They grabbed it, but they couldn't hold it. The American forces have reappeared, and this time they attacked from land. The Americans and the British fought a melee in the forest. The British fleet could not see the target and could not support it, so it had to rely on people to fight. The British at first fought too hard with the Japanese. At this time, there were not many people left, and the result was soon defeated. However, the British relied on their superior firepower to keep the Americans in the forest, and they eventually saved the easternmost city-Tutuara. The British used their fleet of artillery to suppress this small city like a village. The Americans felt that if they were to fight again, the loss would be too great and they would not continue to attack. But the French fleet suddenly came back. The British fleet suffered heavy losses by the sneak attack. Although the French did not get any benefits, they completely wiped out the British. Tutuara was occupied by the French, but there were only three ships left in the French fleet, and they ran aground on the shallows. "

"So the Americans control most of the area?" "

"The Americans did manage most of the area, but the Indonesians suddenly appeared and began to fight back. "

"You mean the exiled Indonesians?" "

"Well. They happened to be Siege Day, so they concentrated their efforts to beat the Americans a completely unprepared. Originally, the American guild had already suffered a serious loss, but it was finally unable to withstand a second time. Fortunately, the Indonesians are not very strong, and the Americans are divided. The piece of land not connected to the mainland in East Timor and the nearby Indonesian city of Catamananu were all acquired by Indonesians. Now Indonesia has been restored. "

"What? "

"It's funny, isn't it? I thought it was incredible that they were restored to the country so soon, but the two cities are not big in size, so it doesn't matter. "

I asked, "What about the large forest in the middle of East Timor?" Occupied by the Americans? "

"Some problems have also occurred on that land. The Japanese actually established a new small village in the forest. Everyone didn’t know, so the Japanese controlled a small area there. Then the East Timorese exiles also launched a counterattack. They took the capital from the Americans. The Emperor's Power was taken back. "

"So East Timor is also restored?" "

"Well. East Timor, like Indonesia, has been restored, but the land area has shrunk a lot. After that, a new force appeared, and a Canadian fleet ran over. Although their strength was not good, after all, the people here were unable to fight, and no one had extra strength to counter them. The Americans knew that it was impossible to defend such a large area, so they took the initiative to abandon the two cities and control a relatively large village to the south. After the Canadians came, they occupied a village by the sea, and the remaining one was occupied by the Italians who arrived later. NS. "

"Fuck me! Such a big place is crowded with so many countries! "

"That's why I said this time is particularly interesting! "

"Fortunately, I didn't drip this muddy water, or I would be the one who was unlucky! "

Ashford said: "Speaking of which this piece of land has been divided up by everyone. In fact, no one has gotten it right. Everyone has invested a lot. What's worse is who will return it in the end. Not necessarily, I think the final layout there may have to change. "

"No matter who he changes to, I won't intervene anymore. That damn place is simply a bottomless pit! "

"haha! I didn’t know who was calling to get in for a kick? "

"I didn't know the situation was so complicated at the time! "I suddenly remembered that Ashford had come to me and told me that there must be a reason for this." Ashford, you tell me this is not as simple as just letting me know the current situation, right? "

"Of course. "Axiu Fude said immediately: "To put it bluntly, everyone robbed of the land there is not all for the trees. "

"Then why are you looking for me?" "

Ashford said: "Your guild will have a large diving dock, right? "

"How did you know?" "I don’t remember telling Ashford! Could we have a spy?

Ashford said disapprovingly: "The last time you attacked the Japanese island in the storm belt, you were caught by the Japanese. I took a snapshot of the person, and that guy is not too small? Can you tell me how big the earth is? "

"It's about the size of six aircraft carriers. "

Ashford thought about it for a while and then suddenly said: "Yes, it's big enough. Shall we cooperate? Use that thing to smuggle? "

"Smuggling? "

Ashford said: "There is a large logging machine in my guild, and you happen to have a large diving dock. Why don't we go to East Timor to steal wood together?" You helped me transport the logging machine to East Timor, and then we started to cut trees. Your puppet is just suitable for carrying cut trees. At the speed of my machines, I think you can fill up your large diving dock in three or four hours. As long as we can do more than ten times, we are equivalent to occupying the city of East Timor. Anyway, the value of those trees after removing the operating and maintenance costs and war costs, the remaining net profit is about 10 ships. We steal it out as a non-profit business? "

"People say that Germans are rigid like wood. Why do I think you are like a loach?" "

"My grandmother is Jewish! "

"No wonder! "I patted my forehead and said: "With the speed and carrying capacity of the Great White Shark, it can be a great deal to do so, but...! "

"What's the matter? "

"How to calculate the dividend? "

Axiu Fude replied straightforwardly: "Three to seven split the account, you seven and three. "

"Transaction. But I am only responsible for transportation, and your people are responsible for cutting down trees and alerting. "

"No problem. "Axiu Fude said with a smile: "As long as we can ship one ship back, we will have a net profit of 1 million crystal coins. I can also get 300,000 yuan in three to seven points, which is very profitable! "

"The speed of Great White Shark is not very fast. If it is shipped from East Timor to Asingra, isn't it too far? "

Axiu Fude smiled and said: "Will I be unprepared?" He all around looked around and asked, "Is there a chart?" "

"Not here, let's go to the Conference Hall, there is there. "

After arriving at the Conference Hall, Ashford quickly found the corresponding position on the full map of the world drawn on the floor. "This is a blank area between the cities of East Timor. My people are here. I found a cave with an underground river connected to the depths of the forest. Your diving dock can wait outside the cave. We made some modifications to the logging machine so that it can move underwater, and then we followed the underground river into the forest to log. Your people only need to cloud the cut trees into the dark river, and the current will naturally wash the wood into the sea, and you can load it. After a full boat transfer, we walk from here. There is an unnamed island here that we bought. We have established a city there some time ago, and it is now a German territory. There are many Transmission Formations in the city, which can directly send wood to our cities in mainland Germany. How about it? Is it convenient? "

"Fang is inconvenient, I don't know, anyway, you are bad enough! "

"When can your dock leave?" "Ashford seems to be in a hurry.

"What are you doing in a hurry? "

Ashford said: "Those guys have just carved up the land of East Timor. At this time, they must be busy preparing the city to accumulate power. When we go in to smuggle wood, we can safely cut it boldly, so I just think the sooner the better. "

"I said why you burned your eyebrows. The Great White Shark is now in the port of Tianmen Island and can set off immediately if needed. "

"That's very good. "Axiu Fude said with a smile: "I'm going to prepare the logging machine, shall we gather on the Wuming Island?" "

"The Great White Shark is relatively slow. You will have to wait until tomorrow night at the earliest. You don't have to be so anxious. "

Ashford stood up and ran outside while waving his hand: "I have to modify the timber harvester. Anyway, we will make up there tomorrow night. "

"Okay. "

After Ashford left from the Transnational Transmission Formation, our city finally returned to the shore. When Isengard returned, there was no flight. We drove all the way back from the water because we reached the shore. The seabed on the edge became shallow, we had to put down the crawler system and directly drove up the seabed. The city hadn't completely landed before seeing a silhouette floating over.

"True Lord Erlang? "I was surprised to see Erlang Shen.

Erlang Shen saw me float over immediately. "Where did you go?" It made me look for it for a while. "

"I went out and went around. how? Is there anything you want me to do? "

"Of course there is something. "Erlang Shen said: "Part of it is official and part of it is private. "

"Then let's go to the reception room? "

"Lead the way. "

When I arrived in the reception room, I asked everyone to do their own business, and then closed the door. "The true gentleman is going to use Vermilion Bird as a reference this time, right?" "I guess Erlang Shen's personal matter is most likely to be this matter.

Erlang Shen immediately said: "This is a personal matter. Let's talk about it later, half-business. First of all, the question about your spiritual gathering tower has already come to fruition. "

"Oh? How does the Jade Emperor plan to compensate me? "

Erlang Shen didn't answer the question: "You know the black Qilin, right?" "

"Well. I have the task of Black Qilin here, and I have heard about him before. how? Is this compensation related to the black Qilin? "

Erlang Shen nodded: "The Celestial Court was in an uproar after Black Qilin was born...! "

"Pause! "Seeing that Erlang Shen is about to start telling the story, I hurriedly called to stop. Those silly things at Celestial Court will probably be endless without talking about three to five hours. I just want to know the key issues. "I have heard of the life experience of Black Qilin. , You can just talk about compensation. "

"Since you know I'll just say it briefly. Although the black Qilin is now in the Eighteen Levels of Hell, at first everyone did not want to send the black Qilin to guard the Eighteen Levels of Hell. After discussion, Celestial Court teamed up with some hidden Divine Immortal to build a tower. This Divine Pagoda, named Qilin pagoda, was originally used to suppress the ominous air on the black Qilin Body, and it was indeed effective at the beginning, but later as the black Qilin's mana increased, the tower could not stop it. "

"And then? "

"Then Hei Qilin ran out of the tower. Nine Heavens and Buddhas dispatched together to open the entrance of the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Everyone disguised the entrance and placed it under the Qilin pagoda. Finally, Qilin Elder came forward and tricked the black Qilin into the tower. He didn't know why the black Qilin found something wrong as soon as he entered, and then he wanted to run, but Nine Heavens together with the gods and Buddhas forced him into the Gates of Hell. "

"It's weird, why is the version I heard different?" "

Erlang Shen looked at me strangely: "What are you listening to?" "

"I heard that it was Black Qilin. He knew he was an ominous thing, so he was willing to guard the passage of the Eighteen Levels of Hell, so he himself entered the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Why did you say you were beaten in? "

Erlang Shen whispered immediately: "The one you heard is a superficial claim to the outside world. You don't know where the Eighteen Levels of Hell is, do you? How could anyone go in voluntarily? But if it spreads out that Celestial Court and Divine Immortal join forces to murder Black Qilin, the reputation is not very good, so he said later that he went in by himself. "

"Fuck me! Are you really dark enough? "

"It's not us, it's them. "Erlang Shen defended: "I was not a god at that time!" The Divine Immortal that Black Qilin participated in when he was detained is basically passed away now, and not many really know the truth. "

"Then how did you know?" "

"Because I have this. "He pointed to the third eye above his head. "The Tianmu is connected to the Spirit of Heaven and Earth, and you can see the past and the future. But you just need to know this for yourself, don't go out and talk nonsense, you and I are not good to eat the bosses! "

"I know. You talk about compensation first. "

"Oh, yes. Erlang Shen continued: "Of course the black Qilin was very unwilling after being beaten into the Eighteen Levels of Hell, and then slammed into the entrance. Eighteen Levels of Hell originally had no entrance. Under the Seventeenth Layer of Netherworld, there is a Divine Item that connects various spaces, which is equivalent to a one-way Transmission Gate. It is the only thing that connects to the Eighteen Levels of Hell. But at that time the gods joined forces to open a new channel under Qilin pagoda. This channel must be connected to the Eighteen Levels of Hell, and its power is definitely not ordinary. It took a long time for Nine Heavens to close the door after Nine Heavens shut the black Qilin in. But when the black Qilin hit, the door cracked again. "

"Fuck me! Isn't the black Qilin able to come out from there? "

"No way. The Space Gate is called the gate, which is actually quite different from the gate. The powerful black Qilin broke the door through the space, because it still had the coordinates of this space at the time, but the coordinates would change over time after the door was completely closed, and he could no longer find the position. The remaining crack is not enough for him to pass, so it doesn't make any sense to him. "

"What does this have to do with my compensation?" "

"Of course it does. Because the compensation is Qilin pagoda. "

"Is this tower very difficult to deal with?" "

Erlang Shen whispered: "In fact, it should be said that it is dangerous. "

"Huh? what do you mean? "

"The crack was unable to close completely after being knocked open, and it is still suppressed by pagoda's divine force in the tower. The cracked black Qilin can't get through, but the demons and ghosts who are hacked by Qilin can come over. After such a long time, the divine force seal on the tower has gradually loosened, and now from time to time, there will be some evil spirits and ghosts. "

"Damn, you guys don't want to pay and don't give me a haunted tower!" "

Erlang Shen said indifferently: "Aren't your original towers used to attract ghosts?" Now this is just more straightforward, sending the strongest evil spirits and ghosts directly from the bottom of hell, and it is guaranteed to be better than your original one. "

"The problem is that the original ghost can be controlled. What if you make something uncontrollable and let us kill it together? "

Erlang Shen suddenly took out an Eight Trigrams Mirror to me. "So we also gave this thing. "

"What is this?" "I took the Eight Trigrams Mirror and took a look. The shape is very simple, the outside is wood, the center is gold, and there are a lot of strange symbols on both sides.

Erlang Shen explained: "This It is the soul-binding mirror, belonging to the higher-level Divine Item. If it weren't for you to open up the territory in the future, Celestial Court would not give you this thing. "

"What is this thing for?" "

"This mirror can forcibly seal the evil spirits and ghosts into a living organism for 24 hours, and it can work continuously. When the time comes open the gate of the tower to let the ghost run out, this mirror will automatically seal the ghost passing by it into the body of nearby creatures. "

"Does that mean ghost upper body?" Is this the superior Divine Item? Are you doing a fart if you are controlled by a ghost? Why not have it! "

Erlang Shen immediately said: "Of course you cannot be counted as a higher-level Divine Item if you are controlled by a ghost, but this is indeed a higher-level Divine Item, because after being sealed, you are not controlled by a ghost, but you will get this ghost. Part of the power. This ghost will become your energy source for you to use until it is lifted. "

"What if it is lifted?" "

"As long as you don't take the initiative to separate, you won't be relieved in time. When you are about to be relieved, you will return to the Qilin pagoda side. There is a soul-absorbing array on the back of the tower. If you separate the ghost in front of the array, it will be sucked back into the tower as soon as it comes out. There is no danger. But don't overtime, or it will control you once you two are separated after you two are separated. "
