The second floor of the castle.
Tang Yu made a rare appearance in the office. Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, you could see the light rain falling outside.
"The weather is not very good... But now that I go out, I don't seem to need to bring an umbrella."
His skillful control of the source of power allows him to easily control the source of power to penetrate the body and form a translucent gas flame, or gas shield, to block rainwater, blood and other filthy objects that may be affected during battles. outside the body.
He has practiced this trick so well that he can do it by instinct without any distraction.
The test flight of the first aerostat was successful, and the second and third boats were also put into production.
There is a workshop, and time is mainly spent on assembly. On average, an aerostat can be formed every five days.
"However, the existing materials are enough to build three small aerostats, which is the limit. The urgently needed materials must be purchased by Elaine as soon as possible and arranged by people from the logistics department."
"The control positions of the aerostat can be subdivided, and the captain controls the overall situation. In addition, it is best to be equipped with specialized helmsmen, artillerymen, observers, defense rune control specialists, etc... Preliminary estimates are that an aerostat will It requires at least fifty people to operate it perfectly and exert its due combat power.”
It is also necessary to equip certain armed personnel, that is, air troops.
The first position of the aerostat is to transport cargo, but in the future it may also carry some passengers. The existence of air troops can not only deal with emergencies, but also deal with passengers with evil intentions.
"Another important point is that there must be a relatively safe route. Although the aerostat is comparable to extraordinary combat units, it is best to avoid high-intensity battles... At least it can save a lot of source crystals. Well, I will give you the information later. The people from the Ministry will drive the floating chariot and first explore an air route between Green Shade and Jingcheng."
Tang Yu thought about it and wrote down some key points.
At this time,
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in," he said.
The door was pushed open and Chen Haiping walked in, holding a pile of documents in his hand.
"Director, these are the information for recruiting personnel for the aerostat."
Tang Yu stared at at least a few books of highly stacked information, his eyelashes twitching, "I'll just leave these... to you."
"There are several candidates for captain, you should take a look at them. Of course, they don't know what position they are applying for right now."
Tang Yu rubbed his temples and nodded helplessly.
Chen Haiping spoke again, "One more thing. Several people have come to the castle. They claim to be envoys from Jingcheng and hope to meet you."
"Take them to the drawing room."
…
living room.
There were three people in this group from Jingcheng. The leader looked to be in his thirties. Ever since Tang Yu walked in, he had been staring at them with an inexplicable light shining in his eyes.
"Are you Tang Yu of Lvyin?" he said, with contemptuous eyes and a harsh tone.
Chen Haiping is about to get angry.
Tang Yu waved his hand to stop him.
The leading young man raised his chin slightly and continued, "This time, on behalf of the Jingcheng official, I recruit you to join the exploration team of the Mirage Mountains..."
"Recruitment?" Tang Yu raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." The leading young man said with an arrogant expression, "For a small shelter like yours, this is a rare opportunity. I hope you don't belittle yourselves—"
As he spoke, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
A powerful momentum emanated from the young director in front of him, like a mountain, pressing down on him.
"Get out of here yourself, or should I help you get out?"
The three 'Jingcheng Messengers' did not dare to speak any more, and left the castle in embarrassment with their heads lowered.
"Director, these Jingcheng people are simply arrogant! Is this the attitude of inviting people!"
Chen Haiping said angrily, since the development of Luyin, even an ordinary official must be taken seriously by outsiders. How can he be so despised and belittled
"Arrogant? That's just pretending. They are not here for the exploration team at all."
"That is… ?"
Tang Yu shook his head.
On the map, the small dots representing several 'messengers' are red dots, and they are deep red.
In order for Lu Yin to join the exploration team, even if he is an arrogant person, he cannot be marked with a red dot. The only explanation is that those people were already hostile before they arrived.
For some purpose that was unclear to him, he did not detain these offending people.
…
The next day.
Jingcheng, Li clan.
‘Leading Messenger’ Li Ran was standing in front of a middle-aged man with a majestic face.
"Tang Yu is the murderer of my son?"
"That's right." Li Ran nodded, "My tracking ability has determined that the murderer of Master Li, even if he is not Tang Yu, must have a close relationship with him."
"That director of Green Shadow is indeed as powerful as the rumors say. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to deal with."
The dignified middle-aged man walked to the window and said nothing.
The rain was pouring down.
…
King City Council.
Many giants gathered together today.
The exploration team returned without success two days ago, but a shelter that was originally inconspicuous and no one even knew about it has entered the sight of the giants.
Green shade.
Possessing unimaginable rune equipment manufacturing technology, and even being able to engrave spells on scrolls, the strength of each of the awakened ones who stepped out of the green shade was astonishing.
"If the rune technology mastered by Lu Yin is in our hands, the overall strength of the shelter will increase by at least 50%! I propose that Lu Yin hand over the rune technology."
The leader of the Li clan opened his mouth and mentioned in passing that he sent someone to "kindly invite Lu Yin to join the exploration team, but Lu Yin didn't take it seriously and kicked him out directly."
"Since Lu Yin is unkind, there is no psychological burden for us to force him to hand over his rune technology. If we can get hold of such a great technology and carry it forward, it can be regarded as a benefit to mankind."
"Director Li is right."
"It's not that we are greedy for rune technology, but for human survival."
"Hey, leave it to me to do the bad things."
Some giants echoed, all with their own plans.
They said, looking at the No. 1 giant.
The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat tapped his fingers on the table, neither agreeing nor rejecting.
After just a few words, the meeting was dismissed.
…
late at night.
"I don't know what the Li family is up to."
"Clan leader, then we..."
"First send someone to the Green Shade Shelter to investigate, and then wait for an opportunity."
…
"Chief, what happened today?"
"Lvyin is not just a shelter. It has already formed a relationship of interest with shelters such as Lindong and Hengcheng... In this way, I will send people to Luyin secretly tomorrow. I need first-hand information about Lvyin. In addition, We can consider inviting Lu Yin to join the exploration team."
…
"Boss, if we can get the rune technology, we'll give it to you."
"Hmph, I still don't know what kind of medicine that old guy Li Zongwei is selling in his gourd. Rune technology is of great importance. We can't follow the rhythm of the Li family, like this..."
The dark figure paused, "Send someone to Green Shade. It's best to contact their senior officials secretly."
