This port city is still under construction, and three sea-blocking magic formations are yet to be completed.
Similar to the Eastern formation, the main material of the magic circle's lines is also silver-like metal.
This kind of resource card has a significant shortage in China.
"Your Majesty," the treasurer, Jin Shan, bowed. "Recently, a mixed fleet from the descendants of the Greek Longship Gods and Qin merchants docked to peddle their wares. They brought silver, in large quantities and of excellent quality. However, its value is considerable."
Thunder had already become emperor during the era of exploration, so it was natural to call him Your Majesty.
However, many years after the incantation was cast, this was the first time Hua Xia and Zhong met in Xinchang District. It is unknown what version they were using, possibly dating back to the late Qin Dynasty or early Han Dynasty.
"Continue." Lei Ting played with the ring on his finger.
"New World imports."
Upon hearing this, the general immediately looked up and asked, "I've long heard news about the New World. How are our naval card preparations coming along"
"Unable to go overseas," Jin Shan trembled and lowered his head.
Without the support of massive expansions, it's good that the cards haven't regressed.
"Damn it!" Thunder instantly disintegrated the [Ring] into [Gem Dust].
Slowly getting to his feet, Thunder fell into deep thought.
Back then, when the families split, Zhongdu and Dongling signed a treaty to jointly resist the Holy Domain. Although their paths diverged, they shared a common enemy.
For so many years, the Thunder had always believed that Dongling would perish under the assault of the Belmani. Unexpectedly, it has developed and thrived instead.
The relationship between the two sides is not good, but there is still a trade agreement, which benefits both parties.
After their defeat in Troy, the forces were on the defensive and lacked any major expansion packs. Facing off against Saint King, a 9-star champion at the card table, proved incredibly difficult.
When the Northern consulate was in trouble, Qin sent troops to help the refugees, while Zhongdu remained aloof.
Later, the situation changed dramatically.
Upon learning of the Death Reaper King's plan to sanctify Aegaea and resurrect Poseidon, Qin decided to take the initiative by revealing an extra-limit card and dispatching people to Zhongdu to fulfill the terms of the ancient pact, providing as much assistance as possible during the war.
The alliance indeed exists, and the fighter jets do indeed exist.
The Huaxia clan, after their on-site investigation, told Lei Ting that Mount Bu Zhou had collapsed, causing a large amount of water to flow into the original Holy Nation's Hell Pit and leaving depressions where the Huaxia ecological migration took place. Zhong Du itself would not be greatly affected, and they would try their best to use residual magic power to sweep away a wave of Trojans. This was a great opportunity, and they hoped Lei Ting would fulfill the ancient contract and launch an attack.
But Lei Ting, being cautious and prudent, ultimately did not bet on the Qin state.
They never actually marched on Troy, but rather held their position for many years.
Water magic is powerful, but it's outdated. It has to be said, Thunder regrets it. If they had truly marched according to the treaty, they could have retaken the West Coast. But there's no medicine for regret in this world.
"Your Majesty, calm yourself! I believe we have only one option: to request blueprints for heavy warship cards from the Greek demigods and the Qin!" Jin Shan spoke rapidly.
"How is that possible!" His thoughts were interrupted, and he looked at the Minister of Finance below: "Our trade agreement doesn't include advanced cards! And we didn't advance according to the treaty back then, they would never provide us with such technology!"
Jinshan's eyes flickered, as if he had something to say but held back.
"Say!"
"Your Majesty, we could seize these divine vessels and Qin-class merchant ships for research."
"Hah!" Thunder was nearly laughing at this pig-brained idea. "You mean, we declare war on former allies One with a full nation and the other a half"
The fact that the Qin people have expanded is as solid as iron. Otherwise, there would be no reason to obtain resources and develop into what they are today over several thousand years.
While the Greek expansion pack's nation is composed of fragments, it includes two main god cards. Calling it a semi-expansion isn't entirely inaccurate.
As he spoke, Lei Ting took a deep breath. The Demon Dragon was still not recovered, and the location of that legendary Eastern expansion pack remained unknown.
"Your Majesty, we can declare the old trade agreement void. When it was signed, both parties were landlocked nations, so the agreement was for land-based trade. Now that there is water involved, we need to send someone to negotiate a new maritime trade agreement. Please have the merchant ships stay in our harbor and undergo inspection until the new agreement is signed."
"Are you suggesting that the Qin people and the Greeks are three years old" Thunder interrupted Jinshan, his voice filled with rage. "One more word and I'll cut you down!"
"Your Majesty, hear me out!" Jin Shan said. "I believe we are currently in a favorable position!"
"Hmm" Lei Ting chimed in.
Under the might of the thunder, Jinshan finally got a chance to catch his breath.
"The Qin forces cast their magic, aiming to defeat both the sacred kingdom and Troy in a battle that leaves them both ruined. Our army has spent so many years aiding the Qin people against the Trojans, they must still rely on us, and now more than ever! As long as we provide even a flimsy excuse, and it's clear we don't intend to truly harm them, I wager they won't turn their backs on us at this crucial moment!"
