Douluo starts with the Pea Shooter

Chapter 539: Tomb robbing with public funds

These inexplicable plans of the Dark Five Elements Continent make the Light Five Elements Continent completely confused. Obviously, the Five Elements of Light Continent has not come back to play, although it has already benefited from the benefits of technology. But we still only regard technology as a technology. They put more energy into governance and strengthened their control over the local area. This aspect is the gap between them and the Dark Five Elements Continent.

From a certain perspective, what Bright Five Elements Continent did was indeed right. Strengthening centralization is beneficial to the development of a feudal dynasty. Only when centralization is strengthened to a certain extent can the advantages of the feudal dynasty be brought into play. The same was true for the previous Dark Five Elements Continent.

This is the normal social process. We always have to go through this before we can move into a more advanced social system and make more efficient use of manpower and human wisdom.

From this perspective, the Bright Five Elements Continent is actually making up for their debts, but the Dark Five Elements Continent is already far ahead in this regard and has not stopped to wait for their wishes.

If this development continues, although the Light Five Elements Continent has its own advantages in terms of territory, it is still not easy to win the Dark Five Elements Continent. Even if it has an advantage in terms of territory, its own high-level officials If you don't seek advancement, or even settle for pleasure in peaceful times, you may give up your advantage in vain and become a source of resources and a dumping ground for other people's goods.

The knowledge related to the future obtained by the Dark Five Elements Continent is actually very little. More of it was figured out by them. It was discovered under the rule of the dark secret.

Dark Tianji himself is one of the smartest people on the Dark Five Elements Continent. Being able to become a prophet, being able to become some of the strongest people on the continent. Of course he won't be a fool.

The Bright Five Elements Continent also has a bright future. He is also an extremely wise old man, but it is obvious that the rights of the Five Elements Continent are not in his hands. After Lie Yan gave up his power, Guangming Martial Arts Continent started an internal struggle for power. The ultimate winner takes it all. But he is not the wisest person, the one who can best guide the development of civilization.

At this point, Lan Nuo has no obligation to do anything to this continent. He has now avoided the outbreak of a major war. Even if there is a small-scale conflict in the future, the Dark Five Elements Continent will still have a sense of proportion. After knowing the bottom line of the God Realm, they also know how to deal with the Light Five Elements Continent. Under what circumstances can the two sides only quarrel and not start a war? Under the circumstances, you can do it yourself.

The rules he was told were not very clear, but these smart people could figure out a lot of things by exploring on their own.

Return to the spaceship of the Dark Five Elements Continent that was just launched. Such a hasty and reckless launch was obviously a failure. After the spacecraft was launched, it drew an arc in mid-air. Obviously, the speed did not break through the first cosmic speed of the planet, and finally fell down, hard. It hit the ground.

When Lan Nuo saw this scene, he couldn't help but cover his face. Such a wild launch method could only be thought up by the guys from the Dark Five Elements Continent. If we were to launch a spaceship like this in a world without extraordinary power, the people in the spaceship would have become meat.

This is also the reason why humans on the earth before he traveled had theoretically had the ability to use cannons to accelerate objects to the first cosmic speed, but they had never used similar means. An important reason for launching artificial satellites.

Satellite launches are carried out by this means. The contents of the launched satellite are probably already in a mess.

Fortunately, the astronauts chosen by the Dark Five Elements Continent are strong earth-attributed men with extremely strong defense capabilities. When the launch just started, soil was created to wrap itself up and control the acceleration it received.

He is also able to do this to a certain extent. Slowing the impact to a level he could bear. Only then did he successfully survive the launch, but the little tricks he did were also discovered and he was severely reprimanded. Wrapping himself in soil would increase the weight of the cannonball and make it more difficult to launch the cannon. The initial velocity of the ejection chamber became smaller, which is considered to be the main reason for the failure of this launch.

However, this is obviously a passing of the blame, and the theoretical success of their launch method may be minimal.

If you want to successfully accelerate the cannonball to the first cosmic speed, the diffusion speed of the explosive steam or shock wave must at least exceed the first cosmic speed. However, the explosives used in the Dark Five Elements Continent obviously cannot do this. Fire attributes Although the explosion created by the strong can do this, it is difficult to control accurately. It is difficult to detonate the shell at the moment it flies through the area under your control.

Therefore, most of the explosion caused by the fire attribute power they provided was wasted, and only a small part was converted into the function of the cannonball.

Unfortunately, the first launch failed and was thrown over the astronauts. Although all kinds of unreliable, this can be regarded as the first step for the deep space exploration of the Dark Five Elements Continent.

No one knows how much sacrifice is required to send people to space with such a busy way of exploration, but at least their strong thirst for knowledge is worthy of recognition.

The Dark Five Elements Continent also attaches great importance to the development of mathematics. Maybe their mathematics is still very bad now, and they haven't even arranged the trigonometric function table, but I believe that they will push mathematics to a height high enough to launch satellites in the future. By then, they may not be like they are now. They always have to calculate the speed of the gas generated after the explosion before trying to launch.

Dark Tianji has made more than one plan. In the previous war, he also realized the power of some military weapons in the Mingming Five Elements Continent, such as their airships in the sky. Although they were vulnerable in front of the dark giant, they were easily swept down.

But if these guys can fly to a higher altitude, such as tens of thousands of meters, then the dark giant may not be so easy.

Even if a ninth-level strongman can fly to an altitude of 5km, it is already good. This is the record set by the Duke of White Tiger in the second stage of Douluo Continent. You must know that the soul master in the second stage is obviously more powerful than the first. Even so, it can only fly to an altitude of 5,000 meters. You can imagine how difficult it is to reach an altitude of tens of thousands of meters.

If there is something that can fly in the sky and reach that height, although it will not be as useful as reaching space. It can also be used as a very useful firepower platform.

Obviously, the Five Elements Continent is far from giving up the war. It is far from giving up the use of force to solve problems. In fact, the God Realm has never opposed them using force to solve problems.

Lan Nuo has given indicators. As long as the casualties of the army and civilians can be limited to less than 30 million, they are qualified to start a war and unify the two continents through war.

Although the Bright Five Elements Continent lags behind in technology, it is not inferior in infrastructure construction. In the Bright Five Elements Continent, the accumulation of wealth is actually more than that of the Dark Five Elements Continent. After all, their territory is larger. Although it is not unified and there is no centralized production. But the wealth accumulated among the people for a long time is more than that of the Dark Five Elements.

Although society has developed to this point, the difficulty of obtaining wealth from the people through plundering and other means has greatly increased. But it is still very easy to obtain wealth from the people through trade. The government can easily mobilize a large number of manpower and let them produce wealth far exceeding the amount of money they need to pay. Then use this method to reap the wealth of the people.

Although the current emperor has obtained his position through the struggle for power and profit, he still has certain ambitions. He is not a foolish and incompetent guy. At least he can grab his throne, which shows that his brain is good enough.

Although he is limited by his own ability and cannot jump out of his historical limitations. But if he just wants to make his country rich and strong, he can still do it.

Use these wealth collected from the people for infrastructure construction, plus the timely start of the Bright Five Elements Continent, which is a few months earlier than the Dark Five Elements Continent. There is still a certain first-mover advantage in many things. So that their technical diamonds are still in a leading position, especially in the field of clockwork technology. Many ways to control the elasticity of metals are kept secret in the Bright Five Elements Continent. This disease is difficult to understand directly even if you get the clockwork.

The only way is for the Dark Five Elements Continent to ask the Bright Five Elements Continent to help charge the clockwork, or to supplement its elasticity, so that the clockwork will have a longer service life and can be charged more times.

Before this series of technologies were cracked, the Bright Five Elements Continent still had certain advantages over the Dark Five Elements Continent, and some bargains could be seen in trade. Of course, these were gone after the technology was learned by others.

The emperor of the Bright Five Elements Continent also knew that it was impossible to keep the technology secret. With the existence of the space system, everyone can communicate with each other through the network, and the difficulty of keeping the technology completely secret has greatly increased. As long as the opponent's spies get in, they can always pass back the intelligence they have spied on. Of course, this kind of thing is the same for the two continents, including the Bright Five Elements Continent.

They also sent spies to the Dark Five Elements Continent. Although most of these spies are ordinary people, they can do a lot of things in the Dark Five Elements Continent. For example, tomb robbing in the Dark Five Elements Continent.

Tomb robbing requires more experience for the participants, rather than strength. Although the people on the Bright Five Elements Continent are not familiar with the structure of the tombs on the Dark Five Elements Continent, they have a stronger sense of the crown crystals on the Dark Five Elements Continent, and it is easier to determine where the crown crystals exist.

The energy crystals of the two Five Elements Continents are the most precious treasures to each other. This kind of thing is of no help to their own cultivation, but it is of great benefit to the cultivation of the other party. Because of this, they themselves are not very sensitive to this kind of thing. In contrast, the party with the opposite attributes is very sensitive to these.

Because of this, even the weakest supernatural person in the Bright Five Elements Continent has a strong ability to sense the crown crystals of the Dark Five Elements Continent. The Dark Five Elements Continent also collects their crown crystals for storage, which makes it easier to sense. In this way, the spy of the Bright Five Elements Continent is not to guide others to rob tombs, but to guide them to find the location of tombs.

To be precise, this thing is not called a tomb, but a sealing point. It’s just that most sealing points are chosen in the ancient tombs of well-known strong people, so they are often called tomb robbing.

Obviously, this is a way to make up for the gap between the two continents. If the Dark Five Elements Continent holds on to its own crown crystals and does not sell them, it will lead to unfair trade between the two sides. Compared with the impact of the value of the item itself on the price, the scarcity of the item actually has a greater impact on the price.

The Bright Five Elements Continent did not want to sell crown crystals to the Dark Five Elements Continent, but there was no way. Their crown crystals were not buried together, and they had not considered that they might be obtained by people from the Dark Five Elements Continent through some means. As a result, these things were distributed in large quantities among the people, and almost every extraordinary person could find some in their hands, especially some extraordinary people whose families had passed down their crown crystals. Now the ashes of these ancestors are valuable.

It is almost impossible to stop them from selling to the Dark Five Elements Continent, and the current market price is that the Dark Crown Crystal is 30% more expensive than the Bright Crown Crystal. If this continues, the Bright Five Elements Continent will lose a lot of funds, and the speed at which the extraordinary people's strength increases will be much slower than that of the Dark Five Elements Continent.

And this kind of free trade is something they cannot interfere with. This is clearly written in the agreement. They know that this is unfair, but they can only sign it. Who made them unable to beat the strong men of the Dark Five Elements Continent? This is already a very generous agreement.

In the face of this problem, the envoys sent by the Bright Five Elements Continent chose to work for free after mixing with the people, and served as detectors for the tomb robbers of the Dark Five Elements Continent for free.

They almost never asked for compensation, and only rarely asked for a small amount of dark crown crystals as their own compensation, which was mostly the part they kept privately. The purpose of doing so was just to increase the number of dark crown crystals on the market. In this way, the price can be lowered.
