The temporary peace was broken.
War was finally inevitable. However, the White Phoenix Territory wasn't dragged into the flames of war.
"What's going on with Mengchuan? He actually declared war on a territory under the Great Xia Territory. Could it be that Lord Xia Feng has met with misfortune? "Qiao Rui asked.
The other parties that had declared war on Tianfu Territory, such as Cecil Territory, were all vassal territories of Tianfu Territory.
Vassal territories advancing and retreating together with the lord's territory was more of a political statement. No one felt that vassal territories had much potential for war. The outcome of the war was still decided by the lord's territory. At the very least, the vassal territories under Tianfu Territory were all weak and empty shells.
Of course, Tanggu Territory was an exception. Lord Xia Feng's attitude towards vassal territories was unique. He didn't impose any harsh conditions on them. He even allowed Tanggu Territory to retain its own army. This was something that many Staralliance lords couldn't understand.
Xiao Xing, the lord of Tanggu Territory, was also known as the luckiest lord of the Staralliance. Not only did he obtain a lot of freedom, but he also had the protection of Lord Xia Feng's prestige. This was why he and Goldenstone Territory's Shi Yu were known as the "Twin Stars" of the younger generation of lords.
This time, Mengchuan had directly declared war on Tianfu Territory because of the grudge from three years ago.
Mengchuan had given Bai Xiaowen a detailed description of the grudge between the two of them, but Bai Xiaowen didn't even bother to read it.
What grudge? It was nothing more than an excuse for war, a fig leaf.
Because of this, Mengchuan received a lot of criticism from the lords. Many of them thought that Mengchuan was too warlike and was a dangerous lord.
Many lords had closed their mutual trust agreements with Mengchuan and refused to cooperate with Tianfu Territory.
For a territory, this kind of isolation wasn't fatal, but it was very uncomfortable. It meant that many aspects of the territory's development would stagnate, and it would become an isolated island in the Staralliance. Without the help of other territories, Tian Fu Territory would have problems even changing the standard equipment of the territory army.
Bai Xiaowen also gradually gained a better understanding of the demand for standard military equipment.
In the world of evolvers, equipment was very easy to destroy. It wasn't as if one could get a piece of equipment that could be used once and for all.
Evolvers or natives of the same strength could use spirit energy to enhance their attacks and increase their destructive power. The destructive power of a spiritual attack would first affect the material of the equipment, and the durability of the equipment would be the price.
Powerful evolvers usually used gold-quality equipment. The quality of the equipment was passable and could last for a long time.
However, the equipment of the Spirit World army was usually mainly blue and white equipment, and the quality of the equipment was worrisome. Even if they didn't go to war, the usual training would cause the durability of their equipment to decrease.
The standard equipment of the Spirit World army could not be repaired by the laws of the Spirit World. They could only rely on blacksmiths like Han Xu.
Although blacksmiths could repair the durability of equipment, it was often at the cost of reducing the "upper limit" of the equipment's durability. For example, a piece of equipment with 2/50 durability could become 40/40 after being repaired by a blacksmith.
Only a top-notch master with exquisite craftsmanship could perfectly restore the durability of equipment and make it as good as new. However, such a Master would usually be busy with repairing Dark Gold and Epic equipment. How could he possibly repair the standard equipment of the army?
Therefore, every once in a while, the Spirit World army would need to change their standard equipment.
The creation of standard equipment required raw materials, manpower, and equipment … It was very difficult for a territory to gather all the necessary materials. After all, it was impossible for the territory's specialty products to cover everything. At this time, they would need to trade with other territories to obtain what they needed.
This was only the equipment, and only one aspect of the territory's development. Other than that, there were also all kinds of medicinal materials needed for evolvers to break through, all kinds of rare resources needed to create special products, and so on.
At this time, even Bai Xiaowen did not dare to rashly start an invasion.
However, Mengchuan was like a madman. He ignored the condemnation and blockade of the territories and had no intention of withdrawing his declaration of war.
Bai Xiaowen took some time to upgrade the territory's Five Elements Formation to Rank 3.
Although he had to pay five epic-quality elemental materials, it was worth it to strengthen the territory's defense. A Rank 3 formation was the standard of a top-notch territory. With such a formation, even if the enemy invaded the territory, they would be weakened by 30%, and their allies would be strengthened by 30%.
Not to mention, the different types of territory formations had different uses.
Now, the "Thousand Souls Jade", the source of spiritual energy, could finally be used to 100%.
… …
After upgrading the territory's formation, Bai Xiaowen was cultivating with his teammates when he suddenly received a private message.
"Who is it?" Li Shuyi saw that Bai Xiaowen's expression was a bit strange.
"A person who is expected, but beyond reason …"
Bai Xiaowen stood up and said, "It's Xiao Xing, the Lord of Bone Melting Territory. He asked me to meet him, and he even invited the Queen Bee. "
"So it's him. It seems that Mengchuan really wants to start a war. He's not bluffing. Now, Xiao Xing probably can't sit still, "Qiao Rui said.
"Why did he invite both our territories?" Li Shuyi asked.
Bai Xiaowen said, "The Queen Bee has always had a good relationship with the Great Xia Territory. As for me, I owe Lord Xia Feng a favor. Apart from the two of us, I'm afraid that no one else in the Great Xia Territory is willing to help. "
This was the disadvantage of a territory that rose too quickly. It would cause many people to be wary and hope that you would fall.
In addition, Xia Feng had a proud personality and wasn't as good at socializing as Bai Xiaowen (being good at socializing with female Lords was also a skill). The Great Xia Territory didn't have many decent allies, and there were many potential enemies.
"What do you plan to do?" Qiao Rui asked.
"Of course I'm going … I have a question to ask him." Bai Xiaowen's eyes were very deep.
… …
Blue Star Evolver Platform, Arena Box.
Bai Xiaowen also invited another person, Lord Candice.
After all, Candice was an intelligence expert.
The four of them sat down. Because of Xiao Xing's participation, the four of them exchanged some pleasantries.
Xiao Xing and Candice both praised Bai Xiaowen. Recently, it could be said that he was making a lot of money. Many territories had contacted Bai Xiaowen to do business with the White Phoenix Territory.
Currently, in the market, the Cores of Chaos, Evil Flame materials, and other specialties were being sold in batches. The White Phoenix Territory's stock also seemed to be endless. They were never sold out.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen wouldn't say that this was his marketing strategy. He just laughed it off and let it go.
"Overlord Xiao Xing, we all know why you called us here."
Bai Xiaowen went straight to the point. He stared at Xiao Xing and said slowly, "Then, we also have a question that we hope Lord Xiao Xing can answer truthfully …"
