Chapter 990 204. Dragon Island (Twenty-one)
"So, in the past few decades, there have been fewer and fewer young people from the Dragon Clan... because everyone is focused on killing the Dragon Clan."
"That's right. If you kill the dragons, you can also get dragon blood, dragon horns, dragon teeth, dragon bones, and dragon scales. You can build magic fortifications on site and cast large-scale destruction spells."
"In the final analysis, this is deliberately targeting the Dragon Clan. The other top ten races are all prosperous. Losing a few talents is nothing at all. Only we, the Dragon Clan, can take hundreds of years to grow..."
"This is murder! It's not fair at all!"
"Fair?"
Naijia snorted coldly, grinned, and two troll fangs passed through the temporal holes, making a low muffled sound:
"There is no fairness. If you want fairness, go to the empire, the group, the temple, any place that respects laws and civilization."
"This is an alliance, only blood and fire are the only truths!"
"You want to talk about fairness in a place that talks about race? You are the one who has trampled on the fairness of the citizens of the alliance! People recognize it, they love it, and they believe in it. People rely on this to develop a narrative. It is the alliance that brings the realm. Having defeated the void eight times, what qualifications do you have to question others?”
"Weak people, no matter what they say, are wrong."
"Patience, Naija, don't scare the children."
Sodoregolas held Naija down and turned to look at everyone:
"I know this is very dangerous, but now the Dragon Clan has reached a life-and-death moment. This game is crucial to us. I also know that slogans and feelings alone cannot keep you, so..."< br>
He took a deep breath, made up his mind, and said:
"As long as we can maintain our ranking this time, all foreign players present will receive one percent of Dragon Island's annual GDP for a thousand years."
As soon as these words came out, the foreign players who were still worried immediately became quiet.
"One percent..."
"Don't say one percent, even if it's only a few tenths, it's still a huge number. With four contestants, that's four percent, which can feed an army."
The Golden Dragon Monk frowned:
"Old Chief, isn't a thousand years too long? This is not a lump sum payment. Paying a 4% dividend every year is too much of a burden for all the people of Long Island!"
"Archer, don't worry, the bulk of this money will not fall on the heads of the entire dragon clan."
Chief Sodorei signaled his patience and explained:
"I will pay for this dividend profit. I will use all my savings to protect you. From the war era outside Houyuan, the heirloom treasures, antiques, artworks, broken artifacts left from the Deep Abyss and Qunyuan, I will give you all the rare and exotic herbs if you need them.”
Having said that, the old dragon chief who had witnessed the alienation of the Gods rolled up his sleeves and bowed to all the dragons present:
"I ask everyone, we must win! Keep the Dragon Clan's current status."
Click.
Li Ozi scraped off the tea foam and looked at the golden dragon warrior monk Archer in surprise:
"In other words, Chief Sodorei is willing to open his treasure house and let you stay."
"Exactly." Archer smiled bitterly: "It seems that the situation is quite serious. The high dragon clan has always regarded the treasure house as life, and the chief really has no choice."
"Even if you can help Longdao maintain its position this year, in ten years' time, when there will be competitions, will the Dragon Clan be able to develop talents?"
"The chief has his own ideas."
The Golden Dragon Monk thought for a while and said:
"It's like borrowing money to buy a house, then mortgaging the house to the bank, getting more loans, and then using the loan to invest and make money... As long as the capital chain is not broken, the money will only become more and more, and the debt will reach a relative balance. The state eventually became a process of using money to make money. The dragon tribe was the first race to master capitalism, and its awareness of investment and consumption has always prioritized other civilizations. ”
"I don't understand this kind of vain financial stuff. In my opinion, industry is the only right way."
Li Ozi frowned:
"And I don't understand, now that our lives are at stake, why aren't we promoting those middle- and bottom-level dragonborn?"
"He can't do this." Archer sighed: "Although the number of dragonborn in the middle and lower classes is huge and there are some outstanding talents, once this precedent is set, it is tantamount to admitting that the superior dragon clan has weakened and will not be able to suppress it. Living with the people at the bottom may even endanger the rule.”
"The race is about to be ruined, and you still want to rule?"
Li Ozi shook his head:
"At this time, we should fully admit our mistakes, carry out racial system reforms, deliberately promote the leaders and elites of the grassroots dragon clan, let them divide each other, and each fight for their own way. With the help of the national crisis, it can also promote the development of national enterprises , or even take the opportunity to collect a tax, increase the proportion of military spending, stabilize people's hearts and stimulate employment at the same time - is it that difficult for Longdao? "
"...Brother Li Xian, are you a little too extreme?"
Archer scratched his head:
"Although Dragon Island is facing a crisis, it is still big and not broken up. Our Dragon clan is so big and has such an ancient heritage. And I have seen that economically our data is always healthy, and the current ranking has not changed. Foreign investors also have confidence. , as long as it takes ten years, through capital operation, it will be able to recover sooner or later.”
"Then what? If money can buy peace, what else do the gods do?"
Li Ozi took a sip of tea, pursed his lips, and said:
"In the final analysis, it is because Chief Sodorei is the chief of the superior dragon clan, not the leader of the entire dragon clan. For the traditional dragon clan people, the glow dragon is the real ruler, but the strength of the glow dragon princess Galina Neither his influence nor his influence, and Red King’s ignorance of world affairs, there is no way to shake the current situation.”
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's been this way for thousands of years. Since Longdao has done this and it has continued successfully for so long, there must be a reason."
Archer is helpless:
"The matter has come to this, I can only do it."
"I hope so." Li Ozi took a sip of tea and asked: "Brother Archer, what did you just say about the void experience?"
"Well, you also know that Jingyuan has fought eight wars against void invasion. This void experience was proposed by the then leader of the alliance after the fifth war."
Archer introduced:
"Void Narrative is different from other star abyss. They will erode various planes through the void to form a void realm. In addition, they have reached a contract with Zhou Yuan. The abyss is the void, and the void is the narrative. All void realms are regarded as third parties. Layer Xingyuan—Zhou Yuan’s universe”
"Fortunately, the land of Jingyuan is extremely vast. Even if it is invaded seven or eight times, the corroded Void Realm is only a drop in the bucket. Some Void Realms have even become a way for local people to make a fortune and smuggle people to make a living."
"Our experience in the void is to step into Zhou Yuan through a corroded void realm, but it does not really enter Zhou Yuan. It is like going to an enclave in the void, although we have not come into contact with a higher-level knowledge system. , but you can get Zhou Yuan’s blessing, and at the same time you can have access to many Void-specific creatures, minerals, and material resources, without the interference of those overly powerful Void Lords, which is quite cost-effective.”
"I see, it's a practice confrontation with an imaginary enemy."
Li Aozi nodded.
People on Earth often engage in this kind of imaginary enemy confrontation, which has become normal, but in the Star Abyss, they have to wait for thousands of years of invasion by [society] to learn it.
Fortunately, now the Xingyuan side has begun to introduce this tactic.
"However, since these void realms nominally belong to Zhou Yuan, doesn't it mean that the void kings can be teleported here at any time as long as they are willing?"
Li Ozi raised a question.
"The probability is not high, not to mention that this risk is nothing compared to its rewards - that is the potential to directly unlock the level of demigods and above. To put it mildly, as long as there is no talent at all, even [ [Destruction] A pure waste that can’t even cultivate, come here once, and basically become a demigod.”
Archer is more interested in this experience than the reward promised by the dragon chief:
"Brother Li Xian, you are also a martial arts practitioner. This opportunity should not be missed."
"Well, that's true, but I have other things to do when I come to Dragon Island, so I probably won't be able to go with you."
Li Ozi was not very interested.
In his current situation, if he descends into the void, Sides' master [Dusk Qing] will definitely come directly and tear him apart.
He is not in a hurry to enter the void.
The Void was originally a game area that was only opened in version 14.0. In other words, it was beyond the advantage range of his foresight.
Either wait until the historical plunder of Sidis is completely integrated, or wait until all players enter the void together.
Of course Archer could not have imagined this. After all, Li Ozi came with him this time to find someone.
"Haven't you found Eleshia Sunwind yet?"
Li Ozi shook his head:
"No news, it seems she doesn't like hanging out very much."
"There's no need to worry." Archer nodded: "Anyway, as far as I know, Ilesia is a genius and will show up sooner or later. It's hard to get back to Dragon Island. You might as well go and meet Chief Sodorei and participate. This competition will also be of great help to you.”
"Let's talk about it."
Li Ozi took a sip of tea and spoke perfunctorily, but in his heart he had already made up his mind.
Rather than openly defeating his opponents and helping the Dragon Clan gain a high ranking, Li Ozi planned to take a different approach.
There is a saying on earth that if you improve one point in an exam, it is equivalent to defeating a person on the playground.
So, how to improve your ranking quickly?
Since it is a proverb from the cruel, scary, and intelligent people on Earth, we must use their logic to think about it.
So, Li Ozi thought of a perfect way:
[As long as I kill all the people at the top, I will be the first in the test! 】
Originally, Li Ozi had no intention of participating in such a boring competition. It would drag on for ten days and a half, and he would have to get into conflicts with a bunch of people.
Since the game itself is very bloody and cruel, the race pursues absolute advantage.
In the Star Abyss, is there anything more cruel than Earth?
The answer is: no.
"Let them see the cruelty coming from the earth!" (End of Chapter)
