The world enters the age of myth

Lu Yiming thought for a while and shook his head: "Selling islands... is not what you think. Because it will be dark soon in Yanghe. If this Bolier Alliance does not allow any civilization to settle here, it means There will be a war between the two sides.”

"In order to survive, war is a normal thing."

"They have already occupied the best territory, and there is no way they can leave us with nothing. Instead of risking war, they might as well sell the islands and blackmail us."

"That's probably what the other party thinks..."

"That's true." Professor Zhang from the reconnaissance team said: "If you don't sell the islands, you will have to fight. If you lose, you will be wiped out. You can also get resources by selling the marginal islands. Which one do you choose?"

"Moreover, the population settled here is generally relatively small, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands, and there is actually quite a lot of land."

Li Yao opened his mouth but was speechless.

In the end, I can only admit that what they said makes sense.

Lu Yiming turned his head and asked General Zhao of Jin: "Have you ever encountered this kind of situation before?"

Zhao Yi shook his head, his face looked not very good, he had never seen him before.

It is absolutely abnormal for more than 20 civilizations to be crowded into one planet. In the past, meeting two civilizations at the same time was already a very rare phenomenon.

"It's rare, very rare." Zhao Yi said, "We have only encountered five civilizations in the past ten years. Counting you, you are the sixth."

Professor Zhang continued his analysis: "You don't need to be too anxious. I think there is a high probability that this alliance is loose. Just like what was expressed on the parchment just now, as long as you buy an island, you will be considered a member of this alliance.

"So, the so-called more than 20 civilizations are very likely to be like us. They came here to avoid disasters. The Bolir civilization, which was the first to discover this world, cannot compete with so many civilizations. We wanted to fight, so we simply organized this loose alliance.”

Lu Yiming frowned and asked, "But why does this parallel world attract so many civilizations?"

The expert said: "Maybe it has something to do with the last space tide."

"The last space tide was the first large-scale space tide after the reappearance of the Yang River. Perhaps this space tide is special and has brought all the previously scattered civilizations together; it is also possible that this world is a special one. space node.”

"Hey, there are still a lot of unsolved mysteries here... maybe it really is a safe zone, or maybe it's hiding something."

"Lijun, what do you think..."

Lu Yiming sighed and looked at the people around him. Everyone also looked at him, waiting for him to make a decision.

He waved his hand and said: "Now that it's here, let's make peace with it. No matter what, we have to explore it."

"Let's get closer, get closer to the island in the middle!"

Following the order, the destroyer's engines started to fire again and passed through this archipelago. Some of the islands are covered with lush vegetation and look like primeval forests. There are some wooden sailboats parked on the shore, and workers are busy working on them. It should be a major construction project just after the island was purchased.

On some islands, a small number of artificial buildings have been built.

Some of them look like European-style houses, with pointed and rounded roofs, full of religious charm; others are oriental-style, with square and square houses.

Even on a relatively large island, a variety of different buildings appeared. It should be that several civilizations settled on the same island.

This feeling is very strange, as if a mysterious force has mixed all cultures together.

"It seems that these civilizations have not been here long."

"The number of houses is not very large. Some civilizations only last for less than a year, and some may only last for two or three months."

Observing this scene, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's possible that it's a loose alliance."

The large island in the center is about 70 kilometers long. It is the largest landmass in the world, with an area of ​​6,000 square kilometers.

There is a pier with a very deep waterline here and a relatively busy flow of people.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming actually saw a large technology shelter docked on the dock!

The size of this shelter is almost the same as that of the Nanfeng that we have encountered before, and it can accommodate a population of about 20,000.

Its appearance soon aroused everyone's interest.

However, after observing for a long time, people did not think that this shelter was from Earth, because some of the words on it were simply unheard of and did not belong to any country on Earth.

"Technological civilization...there is actually technological civilization here."

This phenomenon has aroused everyone's vigilance. The emergence of this refuge means that the Unkai is not the only technological civilization here. If a war is to begin, the technological civilization here also has firearms and cannons.

Even...nuclear weapons!

Even though the technological level of this technological civilization is not as good as that of the Yunhai.

The infrastructure of large islands is obviously much better than that of surrounding small islands. Most of the houses are still simple wooden houses, and only a small number of houses are made of reinforced concrete.

"I estimate that it may take three years to build these things." Li Yao said with a little envy, "In other words, during the time we stayed in the Nightmare Continent, the Bolir civilization that occupied the central island , has stayed in this world and has never left. What good luck!"

The luck between people is indeed incomparable. At that time, the Yunhai was fighting to the death with the Nubian civilization. After it was over, it was still trapped in the Nightmare Continent, hibernating collectively.

And the Hope is resisting the severe cold. Every day is colder than yesterday. If you don't go out to mine resources, you will be waiting to die...

As a result, there was actually a civilization that developed here safely and steadily for 3 years!

There was a hint of surprise in Lu Yiming's eyes. In three years, since a civilization has been in this world for three years... is this world really safe?

"Marine Corps, they have placed cannons on the shore. There should be a dock where you can land."

The other party had already discovered the 10,000-ton destroyer and had already displayed its cannons on the shore. This is also an unspoken rule of Yanghe: when the two sides meet, they must show off their muscles.

The Unkai was also well prepared and pushed several cannons to the edge of the deck.

At the same time, the two dragons looked up to the sky and roared angrily, then jumped into the water "plop plop".

However, under the influence of the Silent Domain, the originally loud roar of the dragon did not spread too far, and the shock effect was not as good as that of a cannon.

Anyway, it's pretty much what it means, so that's it.

Since you want to enter this trading area for trade, taxation is indispensable. The common trading units here are grain and metal, which are not expensive. Each visitor only needs to pay 30 kilograms of grain.

This situation is consistent with common sense.

The food output of ancient civilizations was limited. Even if they had a vast territory and insufficient population, the production capacity would not be able to increase for a while. Food was still a very important trading material.

After docking at the dock, Lu Yiming ordered about thirty people, plus thirty people from Jin Wenming, for a total of sixty people, forming a large diplomatic team.

The remaining people remained on the destroyer temporarily, waiting for response.

After both parties paid their resources, they set foot on this land.

"Dear friends, hello, welcome to the central island occupied by the Bollier Alliance." There were about 10 soldiers in armor standing on the pier, led by a middle-aged man in black clothes and a very tall man. Strange silver-white helmet.

When he said this sentence, everyone was stunned for a moment, because this strange language seemed to act directly on the brain and could be easily understood!

Translation, to a certain extent, means the strength of a civilization.

Jin Wenming also specially brought the golden parrot with the blood of a dragon for communication between the two parties. But this time, the golden parrot's translation ability was outshone by this strange language.

"Did that helmet play a role?" Lu Yiming was slightly suspicious, but he quickly reacted and pulled him over, cupping his hands and making a bow. This is also a very common etiquette.

The middle-aged man in black clothes said again: "Welcome friends from afar to the Bollier Alliance. I am the diplomat to receive you, Conn."

"We are rich in products and have many civilizations. We have everything you want. Including the eternally safe island. As long as you join the Bolir Alliance, you will be protected by us."

"We are a civilization that advocates peace and are willing to develop together with all major civilizations. We have developed this mind helmet so that you can talk to us directly in your local language."

"Dear Lord Conn, how much does an island cost?" Lu Yiming asked straight to the point.

They didn't even need a translator. The other party could understand them directly through the silver-white helmet.

"Is there a problem with purchasing islands? You need to negotiate with our professional consuls. The larger the island, the more expensive it is, and the more remote it is. The smaller the island, the cheaper the price." I heard that there is a big business, China The young man immediately smiled excitedly.

At the same time, he quietly looked at the destroyer sent by Yunhai.

His heart suddenly moved. Scientific and technological civilization... is definitely a real technological civilization!

The population does not seem to be too large, and this destroyer is not too big. It can support a thousand people, which is the upper limit. It also does not look very advanced, and some of the paint has faded.

Their Bolir civilization has also mastered technology to a certain extent, so they are not too worried about this technological civilization with a relatively small population.

But it cannot be ruled out that the opponent still has a base camp squatting behind them.
