Chapter 411: Demons Attack, Plane Merchants.
Arcane Floating Ring technology, Elemental Pool 6.0, Arcane Energy Fitting Technology combined with Arcane Dome Scroll...
Arden himself came up with this set of Demon-Suppressing Great Wall technology plan, and he had already made a very careful plan in advance.
Arden believed that if this building was successfully constructed, it would be enough to ensure that the Chaos Islands would be much more stable during the subsequent chaos.
Now, after the first round of meteorite falls, a large number of meteorites are still falling, equivalent to 1% of the original frequency.
City wall?
Many of the more than 80 representatives were confused and had expressions of shock or confusion on their faces.
Did they hear wrongly?
Before these life-doubting legends could react, they saw more than 80 different documents suddenly appear on the table.
Every document was exactly the same, and the name was written on it in large gold-plated letters.
"Demon-Proofing Great Wall Construction Plan"
"Everyone, wait a minute, take a look at this."
After Arden finished speaking, the Legends all opened his carefully prepared plan.
At this moment, the weirdness and confusion on their faces turned into shock or contemplation.
Seems feasible?
What Arden built was naturally not an ordinary classical city wall, but a top-notch building filled with the Arcane Empire's cutting-edge technology.
In the magic technology.
Mechanical Zerg, Arcane Empire, and mages are among the best in the world. Even wizards derived from the same magic faction cannot compare to the first three.
In addition to the mechanical Zerg, which is a combination of flesh and machine, it is also one of the most terrifying forces in the world.
The latter two forces are relatively united and good at utilizing and relying on external forces, so they are able to develop magic technology to its peak level.
Demiplane collision fortress, inter-plane star train, dimension crazy cutting machine...
The human imagination, combined with the power of wizards, has created all kinds of incredible creations.
It owns a floating city that represents the highest technology of the Arcane Empire, and a tower spirit that has a long history and technology of Arcane civilization.
Arden has surpassed others by far in many aspects.
Meteorites that continue to fall from the sky will also contain a large number of demons, which is an ongoing disaster for many countries.
Although the noise caused would be much smaller than the first time it happened, it would definitely be terrible for countries other than the Empire that did not have such a perfect and secure defense system.
What Arden wants to do now is to create a system similar to that of an empire, such as the heavy magic and heavy artillery defense system of the Duncan Empire, or the "Eye of the Starry Sky" of the Ryan Empire.
If the Demon-Proofing Wall System can be successfully established, then a huge protective shield can be erected for a long time in all directions without blind spots, blocking and hindering the meteorites falling from the sky, and firing at the demons after they are exposed.
Or you can find out the exact location of those demons, arrange strong people or use the now very mature remote control magic machinery technology to eliminate them on the protective shield.
The financial resources consumed are undoubtedly staggering.
For those empires with vast territories, the Chaos Islands' territory is less than one-fifth of theirs.
Therefore, the cost of building this system will be much lower, but it is still a terrifying astronomical figure.
The reason why Arden proposed this system was to successfully build this system with the support of major forces. There were more than 80 legendary forces present. As long as they nodded, there was nothing in the Chaos Islands that they could not solve.
"The disaster has arrived. We must work together. Otherwise, the Chaos Islands will be isolated from other continents. With the rampage of demons, even if the three powerful Abyss Lords do not take action, there will definitely be many smart demons, at least legendary ones, coming to the Chaos Islands to cause trouble. If we want to ensure our safety, we must all work together."
Arden's words were as loud as a bell, and after everyone had almost finished reading the plan he provided today, they spread throughout the palace where the meeting was held.
"We agree."
"So do we."
"So are we."
More than 80 representatives looked troubled.
But soon, many legends who were close to Arden and had received inside information about Arden in advance and were mentally prepared responded.
The sparse voices soon became passionate, and in an instant, more than one-third of the 80 legends supported Arden's decision.
They had no choice but to nod.
The world has lost its order. The situation of cannibalism in the dark has now come into the open.
Now they are all in a difficult situation.
In order to protect themselves in the coming demon wave, in the Chaos Islands where the situation or terrain is the most unfavorable, all forces are now tied to the same rope!
Arden has already estimated the astronomical amount of money that would be needed to successfully build this system.
Generally speaking, a kingdom’s tax revenue in a year is only 10 crystal cores.
The fluctuation will not exceed 10%, and this is what some of the richer kingdoms in the Chaos Islands can afford. With the cessation of trade, their tax revenue has dropped significantly. However, the accumulation of previous years can still make them a little more abundant than those kingdoms that are currently suffering from great disasters.
But according to Arden's expectations, if this system is to be built, it will cost as much as 20 million crystal cores!
No wonder it took decades for those empire-level beings to build this system. Just seeing this astronomical figure, the representatives of all major forces, even the three major kingdoms such as the Kingdom of Zierste and the Kingdom of Gas, all turned pale.
It would take them at least a hundred years to come up with such a large sum of money, during which time they would not be able to do anything else.
This shows the difference in financial power between ordinary kingdoms and empires.
But no matter how reluctant everyone was, they still had to accept it.
Looking at the representatives at the meeting, more than half of them chose to agree, and Arden made the final decision immediately.
Then, in order to make those reluctant representatives feel better, he decisively threw out a series of news.
To build such a defense system, not only wealth is needed, but also material and human resources. As for high technology, his Silver Dragon Kingdom can afford it, so it does not need to spend too much.
In order to show his responsibility as the leader of the Islands Alliance and the number one force in the Chaos Islands, Arden took the initiative to pay a fee that exceeded that of the other three kingdoms.
Undoubtedly, many legends present had a favorable impression of him.
In terms of negotiation skills, it is also appropriate to use the technique of first hitting the target and then appeasing the target.
The slave trade in Chaos Islands was prosperous, but now the trade has been cut off. The major powers have left the slaves here. If they ignore the protests of other kingdoms and use the slaves left by the trade as construction teams,
Then at least 100 million crystal cores can be saved. After all, the slaves purchased in the Chaos Islands are as bad as the most common gnolls, or forest spirits, and powerful orc mixed-blood behemoths.
If these powerful slaves were used for construction, at least a lot of slaves or laborers could be reduced, and the losses of various kingdoms would also be reduced.
In reality, the other kingdoms had completely cut off their trade with them at this time, so they couldn't take it back even if they wanted to. If they didn't provide food, according to the agreement, the slaves would starve to death. So the major forces decisively agreed to Arden's intentional violation of the contract.
Even if some powerful representatives are concerned about their own face and high self-esteem,
He was obviously interested but only vaguely wanted to go back and ask his own emperor for instructions, obviously trying to shirk responsibility.
There is no doubt that no one could find a reason to refuse.
I would rather die than let my friend die. Anyway, I only took a sum of slaves. At most, I can give them back after they get through the difficulties. Now they are dying of thirst in the desert. No one is willing to give up anything that can save their lives!
This point was decisively passed.
