Chapter 358: Deliberations in the Floating City

Jia Zhengjin didn't believe that there were only 200,000 gold coins in Nuoda Sea Dragon City!

Judging by the number of elves captured and sold by Duke Fairman for slave trading, I am afraid that it is a large number!

The number of elven slaves sold to a majestic empire alone has reached nearly 1,000, and the cheapest of each elf is a few thousand gold coins, which is a huge asset of millions of dollars. One or two hundred countries in the entire continent, they must not only export elven slaves to the Mighty Wind Empire, you can imagine how terrifying the profits behind them are!

200,000 is not even a fraction of this business!

So the question is, where did the gold coins that Duke Fellman got from selling elves go, and why did the vault of Sea Dragon City only have 200,000?

Jia Zhengjin didn't believe that Duke Fairman was using all the gold coins to help the people in his city, if that was the case, Owen's rebellion would not have succeeded so easily! Even if the main army was defeated, as long as the people's hearts were still stable, they would not be instigated at all!

Of course, now that Duke Fairman and the officials and nobles of Sea Dragon City have been imprisoned in their own prisons, sooner or later they will be able to find out the whereabouts of the gold coins.

What Jia Zhengjin needs to care about now is how to deal with the situation where it is very likely that human countries will jointly attack the Holy Dragon City!

If 100,000 gold coins were used to hire Imperial soldiers, it would only be 2,000 people!

In the current situation, adding 2,000 Imperial soldiers to the city is not very useful, because once the enemy is all united, there is actually no difference between 20,000 soldiers and 22,000 soldiers!

But 1 gold coin is equal to 100 iron ore, and 50 iron ore smelts one iron ingot. So 1 gold is equal to 2 iron ingots. 100,000 gold coins is equal to 200,000 iron ingots!

Instead of recruiting 2,000 Imperial soldiers, it is better to go to the Resource Exchange and exchange them all for iron ingots, half of which are used to make iron armor, which can turn at least a few thousand soldiers into tank warriors armed to the teeth with full iron armor. The remaining half of the iron ingots are used to craft musket parts, and all the low-quality ones are melted down and recrafted. Regardless of wear and tear, plus the resources mined in the later mines, it is enough to improve the quality of musket crafting to a perfect level, and make three or four thousand powerful muskets!

Build a tank hoplite, a long-range musketeer, plus the elven archery regiment, the city guard troops, the kobold troops, the holy dragon guards and the town guards, and Ruluto can be used as an air force surprise attack force, specially carrying kobold slingers as bombers, relying on strong fortresses, dangerous monster forests, and floating cities, and there are enough food supplies and potions in the city, it is impossible to be breached in a short time!

Hold on for a few months, how can Connie's dragon bring Lizzy back, right? Unless she doesn't want the territory of the Warcraft Forest! Of course not, Warcraft values the territory and can defend it with her life. And the dragon cares more about the territory, and definitely doesn't want the Warcraft Forest to be invaded and ruined by the human alliance.

If he hadn't inadvertently saved Lizzie, and had been approved by the forest goblins in advance, I'm afraid he would have been killed by Connie a long time ago!

In short, this is a crisis and a great opportunity!

If Connie comes back and is defeated, then the Holy Dragon City will be finished! There is no way to retreat at all, and he can only fight hard and hide in the deepest part of the Warcraft Forest. Then you will either be wiped out by the Otherworldly Human Alliance, or you will be killed by those terrifying demonic beasts!

But if it is victorious, the human empire of the entire continent will suffer serious losses in the future, and at least for tens or hundreds of years, it will not dare to raise troops to conquer the Holy Dragon City. Then the fame of the Holy Dragon City will spread, the prestige of the giant dragon will be even greater, and the countries that know each other will take the initiative to seek peace, and will never dare to attack at will again.

It can also deter various other organizations and churches, making the Holy Dragon City a real paradise that no one dares to provoke at will!

When the time comes, you will be able to fight monsters and upgrade equipment within the entire forest with peace of mind, develop technology and upgrade buildings, and finally build the Holy Dragon City into a prosperous modern city, or even a more powerful science fiction city!

Of course, passive defense is not Jia Zhengjin's style. Therefore, he selected some members from the town guards, holy dragon guards, and imperial soldiers who were more clever and knew how to adapt to changes, gave these people a certain amount of activity funds, and used Ruluto as a flying mount, so that they could go to the surrounding countries near the Warcraft Forest, infiltrate their borders to collect intelligence, and act at the same time!

Naturally, there are other important things at the moment!

Back in the city, Jia Zhengjin asked Wolf and Vera to be responsible for rewarding the returning city guards and the army of Sea Dragon City, and then rode the fake dragon himself, leading Dolma, Alvin, Moses, Michael, Leo, and the messengers of the Elven Forest into the Floating City.

After arriving at the Floating City, the five generals who got down from the giant bee Ruruto, as well as the messenger of the Elven Forest, were all dumbfounded, and they were shocked by this city built in the sky!

Dolma, Alvin, Moses, Michael and Leo, these five generals felt that Lord Keane was unfathomable, and they had a deeper trust in the identity of the space archmage. I also feel that following him has a bright future, even if the human empire of the entire continent unites, what if there is a space archmage like Lord Kean, and there are dragons who can come back to help at any time, even if there are many enemies, they can all be destroyed!

Compared to the morale of these five generals, the messenger of the Elven Forest thought for a moment, this Lord Keane could not be the reincarnation of a certain god, right? If it were not for divine power, who would be able to build such a city in the sky? From ancient times to the present, history records that only gods can live in the sky!

This also made him full of confidence in the cooperation between the elves and the Holy Dragon City.

Jia Zhengjin led them into the king's palace, invited them to sit left and right, and then beckoned the girls in the city to bring them all kinds of delicious food and wine.

Considering that elves generally don't eat meat, only the elven forest messenger's table is full of vegetarian dishes, fruits, and nectar.

After Jia Zhengjin sat down, he politely said to the elf waiter: "The road is far away, the envoy must be tired?

The elven messenger said in his heart, I have never seen so many delicious foods in the elven forest, and the smell of it makes my mouth water. The only thing that can compare to these delicacies is the spring of life! If this is coarse tea and light rice, it is too luxurious!

Of course, he didn't come here to enjoy it, so he looked up at Jia Zhengjin: "There is no hurry to eat! Let me introduce myself, I am the guard waiting for the Elf King, my full name is Cadillat Avaki Lovis, you can simply call me Carter! This time I came to the Holy Dragon City to express the Elf King's gratitude to you. Moreover, I hope to form an alliance with the Holy Dragon City, and connect the three places of the Elven Forest, Sea Dragon City, and Holy Dragon City to help each other and benefit each other!"
