Chapter 143: Monthly Meeting (Part I)

The subordinates rushed into the council hall. Qingyi sat down in his chair steadily, squinting his eyes, looking at these faces that had been facing each other day and night, and then his gaze drifted to the ceiling unconsciously.

When everyone was seated, Qingyi "came back to his senses", clapped his palms, and said, "Start the meeting now." First of all, let me introduce my new colleagues, Necromantic Scholar and Brian. He has been working in the library. ”

"Hello everyone. It's been a pleasure working with all of you. I'm Brian and I'm good at research. At the end of the table, the named scholar stood up, his movements and tone of voice very gentle.

"Compared to us, this is a very ordinary guy. Anyway, I can't see anything powerful about him at a glance. Walterpole Cullen rubbed his mustache and smiled nonchalantly.

(Xue Duo interjected: "If the 'unusual' you say is 'messy', then he is indeed ordinary.") ”)

"Mr. Brian is a very smart, very smart man. I asked him a few academic questions, which bothered me for a long time, but he was able to give unique and accurate insights. To be honest, it helped me a lot. Strunm, who had dealt with Brian, applauded and praised him very sincerely. You know, he's quite conceited (Brian was the only intellectual in the "City of Waiting" before he appeared), and he rarely compliments others, let alone mid-level NPCs as a high-level NPC.

"It's all a life profession anyway, and it's completely useless." Compared with the comments of the previous two, Nave's words are very offensive. But she didn't realize it at all, and glanced at Brian a few times with disdain, and then lost interest in it. Everyone looked sideways at her - except for her, all the people present were "useless" life professionals.

Fermat stepped forward: "Ignore her! Brother Brian, you helped me revise the blueprint last time, and I haven't had time to thank you yet! You've got a lot better than I do! ”

"It's a gesture." Brian laughed.

"It seems that Mr. Brian is a very intelligent person, I wonder if he can come to the Central Intelligence Agency and serve as a despicable assistant? That kind of little thing will definitely not bother you. Oskol smiled and expressed his friendship directly. There was a strange light in his eyes. "Really, just by looking at your appearance, you know that you are quite a smart person."

"Maybe I can't help, but I'll give it a try." Brian nodded, then took a seat.

"Okay, so let's get down to business. Let's talk about what you've done. Strom, you come first. ”

The alchemist stood up, cleared his throat, and then opened the thick stack of reports and began to read aloud: "In the last month, I have developed the 'Roaring Detonator' and the 'Embryo Body Tissue Fluid', and I am currently working on compressing the 'Embryo Body Tissue Fluid' and the 'Soul Potion' to make them easy to carry. In addition, there is a deeper study of the 'soul gem', and its crystallization conditions, physical properties, and magical properties are roughly known. The direction of my research is very clear, which is to try to make alchemical creatures - to create life with alchemy! Although I am still just getting started, I hope that Your Majesty will allocate more funds to me! ”

"I can approve you to take more funds, but, Stroum, and everyone, please remember......" Qingyi paused and said, "We suffered a fiasco not long ago, so I hope you can focus your research on 'war'." In recent months, everything has to be put in the service of the war. Okay, please go ahead. ”

Strom, who was interrupted, as always, began to lack confidence and twisted and pinched. He was a little afraid of Qingyi's gaze, his fingers drew circles on the desktop, and the report couldn't be turned at all. After holding it for a long time, he said, "Hmm...... That, that, I'll try to make more inventions, I'm done......"

As soon as Strom sat down, Fermat stood up with great interest: "It's my turn!" Your Majesty, thanks to the help of Brother Brian, I have reworked the parts of 'Embryo Body II.' to make them 9% lighter in weight while their original properties remain the same! ”

He stopped talking and looked at His Majesty intently, expecting a word of encouragement or praise.

Qingyi frowned: "That's it?" I was disappointed. ”

"Oh, no, no! Not what you think! Fermat hurriedly argued, blushing and thick-necked: "9% is a very good number!" From now on, every 1% increase in this number can be called a major technological breakthrough! ”

"No, Fermat, the parts you developed are expensive, finely made, and require so many people and materials that they can't be mass-produced, that is, they can't be put into practical applications. Although I haven't opened my mouth, I have to remind you this time: you have done a lot of useless work. You're putting too much effort into puppet development, but it's not necessary. When we conquer a city with puppet information, you will naturally get the latest and most authoritative information in the academic world. So, put your mind to the Fermat airship, and I hope to see a new airship with a larger capacity and more stable flight next month." Brian, you're in charge of assisting him. ”

Fermat stammered, unable to speak, so he sat down in a gloomy manner.

Then stood up Walterpole Cullen. He shrugged, "After the last great battle, the number of dead and wounded rotting vultures is more than eighty percent, the number of nocturnal peregrine falcons is seventy percent, and ghost wolves and ghost hounds are nearly extinct. The heaviest losses were the Necromantic Beasts, all of which were wiped out, and not a single one survived. ”

Nave interjected, "It's inevitable. The heavy cavalry ran into a corpse wetland, and it didn't take a few steps to drown itself. "She even carried a horsewhip when she entered the conference room, which was really fierce.

"How many troops do we have left?" Qingyi asked.

"The cavalry brigade is no longer formed, but we still have 50,000 light infantry of Issinger left." Nave said. Her right arm resting on the table has not fully recovered, like a moray eel twisted by lack of oxygen, which is very noticeable. Because of her feat at the gates of Osgilia, the other subordinates privately called her "Nav of the Iron Arm".

"So, when will the other necromantic creatures recover their numbers?"

Walter Pole shook his head and said in an expert tone: "It's hard to say, it probably takes ...... Trimester? It will take two and a half months at the earliest. Fortunately, I didn't send a few specially bred babies to the battlefield, otherwise it would have taken half a year. ”

"It's been too long, I can't wait. Xiaowei, I remember that you have a [Blood Qi Hormone], so use it to speed up the reproduction of your people. ”

【Blood Gas Hormone】Clavisol can use blood as a hormone to detonate the breath of life in a target's body. It has a catalytic effect on plants and an aphrodisiac effect on animals.

("I...... I'm not done yet! And the Flesh Slime's ecological report doesn't say ......" Walter Poyler rolled his eyes)

"Okay~ Then it's my turn to report!" After Clavisoll stood up, she didn't stand up obediently, but sat down on the table, supporting the table with her right hand, looking soft and boneless, and her hips curved hot and reverie. She threw a wink at Qingyi: "My job, there's nothing, it's just to find out the information, and by the way, seduce those stupid men." ”

Turning a blind eye to the seduction of the beautiful woman's subordinates, Qingyi said: "Collecting intelligence is Oskol's job, and this kind of task is quite dangerous, so I decided to adjust the scope of your work." In the future, you will be in charge of foreign affairs, so be sure to bring together more forces to make them allies, and at the worst of all, make sure that they are in a neutral position. Can it be done? ”

"It should be no problem, as long as you can pay all the expenses for me~ Then, I received a letter from Cornhill Villa. The higher-ups of the Blood Elves want to meet you, and they can go whenever they want. Pulling up her hair, revealing her slender and soft ears, Clavisol bit her lip in a misty manner, a scene that would make any man unable to control his lower body.

Looking at the letterhead, Qingyi frowned slightly. The font is graceful and elegant, almost like a landscape painting.

"Your Majesty the June Sunshine:"

"I was also shaken to hear of your defeat in the war with humanity. We believe that you are ready to fight again, and we hereby invite you to meet at Camphill and let us discuss the future development together. Blood Elves value allies above all else, and will selflessly extend an olive branch to you. ”

"I wish you good luck in your country."

"Your Loyalist, Poison Dill"

Blood Elves, the famously insidious and cunning Fallen, who value allies the most? What about deceiving children?

The relationship between the Twilight Empire and the Villa is a very delicate moment. Necromantic creatures don't like the Blood God Cult because they don't have any flowing blood in their bodies, so how can they turn blood into magic? By the way, no one has been transferred to the Blood Muse Master (many Sword Dancers have changed jobs); The same is true of the Blood Elves, who like the feeling of immortality, but immortality is for the enjoyment of youth, beauty, and good food and wine, and if they become necromantic creatures, they have no sense of taste or smell...... How can this be endured by blood elves? Except for the fact that they are "hated by the world", the two sides do not have a common language at all, and it is already a miracle that they can form an alliance.

Leaving aside the small details, let's talk about the recent big events: the Twilight Empire has also lost the sharpness of its early rise and is beginning to decline. As everyone knows, the city defeated by the White Bone Tyrant changed hands again in less than half a month, and the necromantic creatures were defeated in the Battle of Ayalotis, which will also weaken the overall voice of the Twilight Empire. Will the Blood Elves completely change their attitude - "What kind of judgment do you talk about if you don't have the ability?" You are no longer qualified to be allies, so hurry up and sign an unequal treaty! ”

("Your Majesty is a little weird today?") Strum asked Fermat in a low voice)

("I think so too, as if he doesn't see things going well for us......" Fermat lowered his voice)

(Xue Duo: "Host, your subordinates are speaking ill of you!") And I used the wrong words! ”)

("Shhhh Strunm and Fermat hurried)

After weighing the pros and cons of the meeting, Qingyi put the letter aside and said, "The chief manager will arrange the itinerary for me, inform the ghost fleet, and ask them to take me to Qinli Villa." It must have been an interesting meeting. ”

"Let me go with you. The stakes are high on this trip, and it is up to me to remind you of many etiquettes so that you do not lose your country. Jon nodded, but didn't make any moves, already taking Qingyi's instructions to heart. If you evaluate the sense of presence, his sense of presence is the least. He is like another shadow of Qingyi, acting silently and not being noticed, but he will appear everywhere.

Qingyi didn't make a sound, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Nave stood up suddenly. She shook her hair and looked at Qingyi with blazing eyes: "Your Majesty, I have something to say." ”
