Arad's Sword

Chapter 276 Are You Coming?
"Are you kidding me?" Reinhardt hesitated for a moment, but still asked this very low-level sentence.

"How could you be joking? Do you know who the celestial girl who came with me just now is? Her name is Victoria, Victoria Rothschild." Midi spread out a card calmly.

"Rothschild? That trade route spans the entire sea of ​​clouds, and the Rothschild Chamber of Commerce has airship manufacturing technology?" Reinhardt's face suddenly became a little ugly.

This behemoth seems to be among the giants in the sea of ​​clouds that suppressed the Delos Empire and the Kingdom of Belmar.

And Victoria Rothschild was hailed as a generation of geniuses in the chamber of commerce, and was placed high hopes on her successor. It is said that her prestige surpassed her two elder brothers, and she could be said to be the elite among the elite.

When did Midi actually have a relationship with such a big man?

"That's right, if you agree, with just one sentence, Victoria can pay you a lot of money, and by the way, send you a few swordfish-class airships, a team of twenty black bat vanguard boats, and supporting equipment A full set. By the way, I spent 20 crystal coins to buy the ice-breaking technology auctioned by Emile, if you don’t believe me, just wait a few days for the gold star auction house to send the money.”

Midi explained slowly, with an extremely leisurely attitude.

20 million crystal coins!
Reinhardt swallowed hard, and Wiseman whistled in surprise.

Converted into the currency of the Arad continent, the value of 20 crystal coins is at least 600 million gold coins.

Of course, this amount of money is nothing to a prince, but it is impossible for the power of Yunhai to allow humans from the lower realm to exchange gold coins for crystal coins. In other words, if you want to spend money in Yunhai, you must first make money in Yunhai.

How long does it take to earn 20 crystal coins?
Reinhardt didn't know, he only knew one thing, in the past year and a half, the sum of money in his and Wiseman's pockets never exceeded five hundred crystal coins.

But fortunately, if the poor return to the poor, the tolerance and insight of the superior will not be weakened. Although the condition proposed by Midi is indeed extremely exciting, Reinhardt will not be shaken just because of this condition.

"Sorry, I don't intend to agree to anything until I know the truth about the ancient battlefield." Reinhardt gritted his teeth and threw out his own conditions, although he also knew that doing so was completely unreasonable. .

Midi has no obligation to tell them the secrets of the ancient battlefield, and Reinhardt does not have enough chips to let Midi speak.

But unexpectedly, Midi nodded briskly and abnormally, and said: "There is no special truth, I just want to get a few ancient warships."

"Get a few ancient battleships?" Reinhardt felt that Midi didn't seem to be fooling himself, but he didn't understand what Midi meant.

Isn't salvaging ancient warships what I and Emile have been doing recently?Didn't find any special mystery in it?Could it be that there are some earth-shattering secrets and inheritances hidden in some warships?
"A complete ancient battleship." Midi smiled and added.

Very short hint, but enough for smart people.

So far, what Reinhardt and Wiseman have brought for Emile are nothing more than some warship wrecks drifting in turbulent currents and reefs. Using these wrecks to research new technologies is in the final analysis just to make money. Just like auctioning the ice-breaking technology, it is a way to make money by using alchemy and monopolized fishing grounds.

But Midi deliberately wants to obtain a "complete" ancient warship, and the meaning of it is completely different.

"You want to conquer the entire sea of ​​clouds in the sky?" Reinhardt could no longer hide his inner horror, and couldn't help standing up abruptly.

The complete ancient battleship, the alchemy master hidden in the sea of ​​clouds, these two things put together, it is easy to remind Reinhardt of the good things he did in Midi in Faroe Bay on the west coast.

At that time, didn't it rely on a designer from the Feifan family on the west coast, combined with the strength of the Falcon Group, to allow Midi to build the pioneer boat first, and then reversed the entire battle situation?

Now, is this guy going to start relying on his technological leadership, do the same thing, and then step on the giants of the entire sky and sea of ​​clouds?
"I don't have that interest, and currently, I don't have the ability." Midi shook her head.

Reinhardt made this inference because the prince didn't know the energy possessed by the big forces of the sky and the sea of ​​clouds. If he had the experience of being in contact with the forces of the sea of ​​clouds in his previous life like Midi, he would never come up with such a power. It's an idea.

You must know that although these big forces are independent, if they are combined, they will definitely be stronger than the Delos Empire, and it will definitely not be settled by just relying on a technological lead.

War is an art of accumulating life, but it is by no means simple addition and subtraction. If you can win with advanced technology in your hands, is there still a need for war?Everyone puts out the technique of pressing the bottom of the box with their hands and compares it to determine the winner?

"So you're going to a special place?" Wiseman whistled, and a frenzy ignited in his eyes.

Exploring the unknown is always what "Hand of Nightmare" Wiseman is most interested in. In essence, he is more worthy of the title of adventurer than Midi and Reinhardt, because he has nothing to worry about , also heartless.

"Go to the big storm area." Midi nodded and replied in a deep voice.

For a moment, the entire reception room fell into silence again.

But not because of embarrassment, but because the information and ambition contained in this short sentence are too huge.

"I heard that the big storm area is a forbidden zone for the sky and sea of ​​clouds? What's there?" After a while, Reinhardt finally spoke again.

Midi just smiled slightly, and said: "What is there, you can only know after seeing it? But what is certain is that, from the structure of the entire sky and sea of ​​clouds, the best resources must be there. And from the present I Judging from the information we know, the strongest enemy must be there."

As for why this information was revealed, it was very simple, because Reinhardt and Wiseman could only be regarded as two adventurers in the sky and clouds that the Delos Empire could not get their hands on.

Maybe they have a high vision and are very smart, but the lack of background and the predicament of starting from scratch make these two people doomed not to make any waves.

Without Midi, with just the two of them, even if they salvage a complete ancient battleship for Emile, they still cannot manufacture a heavy armored cruiser.

After all, without the injection of a large amount of capital and the input of manpower and material resources, such a large-scale project would be impossible to complete with only the intelligence and creativity of a master alchemist.

Only Midi can do this.

Because he not only has the support of Victoria, but also can rely on his formidable force to obtain rare materials from the Frozen Cloud Circle that can be sold for huge profits!
If it is said that Reinhardt's geographical and human advantage is due to luck.

So at this moment, Midi is relying on his own powerful force and supreme strength, and crushing with domineering schemes.

Even if you take the upper hand in some parts, the overall situation is set by me.

Even if I tell you my purpose and ideas, you still have to give up because you have more than enough heart and not enough power!

"Let me join." Suddenly, a voice rang out.

Very rarely, Wiseman put away his cynical expression and spoke in a very serious tone.

"Oh?" Midi's eyes flashed with surprise.Even if he knew that Wiseman was an unprincipled guy, he never expected that this person would abandon his prejudices so readily.

I am the sworn enemy who has killed him twice.

"Let me join the gang unconditionally. The fact that you killed me twice before will be considered a write-off, and I will not owe you anything. How about it, isn't it a good deal?" Wiseman looked into Midi's eyes and said every word clearly Said, "In addition, if there are new species or something, bring them to me for experiments. I don't have any requirements, I just want to see something new."

Does it look fresh?

No, this guy may not be "unprincipled", but because he always has a heart of exploration and insists on the attitude of seeking the truth, no matter whether it is politics, position, or status, he cannot be restrained. live him?
Wiseman Newton, maybe this guy is more innocent than he imagined.

Thinking of this, Midi's mouth slightly raised a smile full of emotion.

"No problem." Then, he replied in a positive tone.

"What? I don't agree!" Reinhardt stood up again with a bang, and slammed the table hard.

In fact, the fourth prince felt that he could not keep up with his train of thought. While talking, why did he change from a good situation with good location and harmonious people to a situation where he was led by the nose?

And it's even more outrageous now. Why did Wiseman suddenly become Midi's man, or did he ask for it?
what on earth is it?

But before Reinhardt could figure it out, Midi cast her sharp gaze over and calmly handed over a sentence: "Reinhardt, do you want to come together?"

"Wait, wait! Midi Asrex, what are you talking about? I am the fourth prince of the Delos Empire, and I will not be anyone's subordinate!" Reinhardt replied angrily, " Stop talking nonsense here and let's continue the negotiation!"

"We're negotiating now." Midi replied succinctly, "Either you take a large sum of money, add the Swordfish-class airship and the Black Bat Vanguard, and never ask about Emile's affairs again. Or , you just join me.”

"Do you think the latter is also an option?" Reinhardt sneered.

"Of course." Midi nodded earnestly, "Actually, from a third party's point of view, only going to the big storm area is your only chance to defeat your second brother and aspire to the throne of the Delos Empire. "

Reinhard fell silent for a moment.

Midi's words hit him directly.

After a while, the prince asked in a hoarse voice: "Why are you so sure?"

Midi stared straight into Reinhardt's blue eyes, and then showed a silent smile: "Because the place with the greatest danger must also be the place with the greatest opportunity, isn't it so, my dear His Royal Highness?"
