Søren's gaze fell on Hai Die'er's beautiful face and enchanting butt, but his eyes weren't focused. It was obvious that he wasn't looking at a beauty.
The Rock Demon said, "My dear brother, is it really that hard to choose? I know I'm asking for a lion's share, wanting to take away your trump card, Sky Shattering Thunder. But in comparison, isn't it more important to survive? Sea trade is your lifeline. "
Søren closed his eyes and began to contemplate. Although Princess Jung Yeon was Søren's ruler, she didn't say a word, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
But when Søren closed his eyes to contemplate, Princess Jung Yeon gently stepped forward, placed the back of Søren's head on her chest, and then gently massaged Søren's forehead and temples.
Seeing this scene, the Rock Demon was a bit frightened.
He had traversed the oceans, and didn't have much reverence for the human kingdoms on land. But Princess Jung Yeon's peerless beauty, her extraordinary temperament, still made people feel that she was unattainable. But at this time, she was gently massaging Søren, doing things like a maid, it was really shocking.
Søren opened his eyes again and said, "Rock Demon, my elder brother."
Hearing this, the Rock Demon's eyes narrowed. This should be the first time Søren called him elder brother, especially after he kicked Søren into the bottomless abyss.
"Speak, my younger brother." The Rock Demon said.
Søren said, "How about we block the surroundings and talk alone?"
The Rock Demon nodded, then waved his hand. His stunning wife, Hai Die'er, stood up and left, looking at Søren with resentment. Even when she left, her little snake waist was still twisting in a soul-stirring manner.
Jung Yeon also retreated and entered the cabin, leaving only Søren and the Rock Demon on the deck.
"Brother, your only goal for the past ten years has been to annihilate the Hai family and occupy Immortal Abode Island, right?" Søren asked.
The Rock Demon nodded and said, "This ocean is too small. It can't accommodate two hegemons. I and the Ocean Island's Hai Clan can only leave one behind."
Søren said, "How about this? Let's form an alliance. I'll send troops to help you eliminate the Hai Family and seize Immortal Abode Island. After that, I'll completely withdraw from Immortal Abode Island and hand it over to you. And if you pledge your loyalty to Princess Jung Yeon, I will confer you the title of Duke of the Kingdom. When the time comes, you will replace the Rouran Ashen Family and become the biggest feudal lord of the Raging Wave Kingdom. "
Hearing this, the Rock Demon's eyes trembled.
Søren's offer was quite generous. It was even beyond the Rock Demon's imagination.
According to Søren's offer, the Rock Demon didn't need to pay anything to obtain Immortal Abode Island.
Søren said, "Brother, create some friction with the Hai Family first, then start a naval war. I have 25,000 naval troops, and you have 70,000 naval troops. With our combined forces of 100,000 naval troops, we can completely annihilate the Hai Family's navy. After we completely dominate the sea, my 100,000 plus army will land on Immortal Abode Island. With your Rock Pirate Army, our allied army will be 200,000 plus the Black Kerosene and Heaven Blasting Thunder. It will only take a month or two to eliminate the Hai Family. After taking down Immortal Abode Island, I will withdraw completely and not leave a single soldier behind. You will become the new owner of Immortal Abode Island and have millions of citizens. I only have one request, and that is for you to pledge your loyalty to Princess Jung Yeon. "
The Rock Demon's breathing became hurried.
Søren's offer was too generous.
This time, it was the Rock Demon's turn to close his eyes and enter into deep thought!
When he opened his eyes again, the Rock Demon's gaze regained its beast-like calmness. He slowly smiled and said, "My dear brother, you would rather mobilize 100,000 plus soldiers to help me fight than to hand over the recipe for Heaven Blasting Thunder. It can be seen that you really value it."
Søren of course valued it. This was an absolute secret. This was a revolutionary weapon that could change the entire pattern of war.
Furthermore, the current gunpowder was still very primitive. His team of alchemists and Warlocks were desperately researching, striving to complete more advanced and more powerful gunpowder as soon as possible.
In the future, whether it was fighting the southern barbarians, expelling the Dragon Temple, or even unifying the world, they would all need gunpowder.
In order to preserve the gunpowder, Søren was naturally willing to pay the price of 100,000 plus soldiers.
Taking a deep breath, the Rock Demon said, "My dear brother, I'm very tempted by your offer. It's too generous, completely exceeding my imagination. But … this should be considered as food given out of pity! If I want something, I will fight and snatch it myself. The only thing I don't want is to borrow the hands of others. You conquer Immortal Abode Island and give it to me? This is reaping without sowing, it's the shame of the rock people. If I agree, how will the rock people look at me? How will I have the face to be the king? "
Hearing this, Søren's pupils constricted like a venomous snake that saw its prey.
The Rock Demon's words sounded reasonable, but it was completely … bullsh * t!
He rejected Søren's generous offer and insisted on gunpowder. There was only one reason. He was ambitious. He didn't just want Immortal Abode Island, he wanted to get his hands on the mainland.
Once he conquered Immortal Abode Island, he would have a 100,000 plus navy. No other forces in the world would be able to threaten Immortal Abode Island. He would have an absolutely stable rear. Then, he would train a large number of ground troops and start to attack the mainland. With the help of gunpowder, he would be irresistible and could conquer at least a few provinces.
By then, he would no longer be the overlord of the sea, nor would he be a vassal of a kingdom. He might even become the founder of a country.
He would be like the top hero leaders of the human kingdoms, founding a country ruled by the rock people.
It was because of his huge ambition that he rejected Søren's generous offer.
…
At this point, Søren already knew that there was no room for negotiation.
Both parties were too ambitious. There was no way to negotiate.
The Great East Sea and the Nu Lang Kingdom were too small to accommodate the ambitions of these two brothers.
Søren smiled for the first time and said, "Brother, this is too important. Can you give me some time to consider? Also, you should consider my request. I really want to form an alliance with you. Just like what you said, we brothers are connected, and we are invincible! "
The Rock Demon said, "Alright, my dear brother. You can consider, but don't take too long. We, the rock people, are not very patient. When will you give me a reply? "
"Three months?" Søren said.
"No, ten days at most!" The Rock Demon said.
"Two months?" Søren said.
"No, half a month at most." The Rock Demon said.
Søren said, "Then one month it is. I will definitely give you a reply!"
"Alright, one month it is!" The Rock Demon said, "If you don't reply in a month, then don't blame me for being merciless. At that time, I'll lead a hundred thousand troops to wreak havoc along the coast of Tianshui City. I'll find your Magic Mirror Base and take it for myself. I will completely seal off your rocky island and let the people there starve to death. Then I will take over your rocky salt fields! "
Søren raised a finger and said, "One month!"
Then, Søren said, "Jung Yeon, let's go!"
Jung Yeon walked out and disembarked from the gorgeous ship with Søren. They boarded a small boat and rowed towards the Suo Clan's fleet.
Hai Die 'er leisurely walked out. The lustful expression on her face was gone. She looked like she was about to cry!
"Luckily, that bastard Søren didn't extend a finger over you. Otherwise, I would have cut off his hand." The Rock Demon lovingly hugged his little wife and smiled, "Women are like clothes, brothers are like limbs. Whoever wears my clothes, I will cut off their limbs!"
Hai Die 'er said, "But I'm wearing so much, my body has long since been seen."
The Rock Demon said, "We Rock Bandits don't care if our women are seen, as long as they don't touch us."
The Rock Demon really didn't care if their women's bodies were seen by other men. Because they lived on the sea and the weather was hot, women wore thin clothes. Once they entered the water, everything would be exposed.
Some men and women would even openly have sex on the deck, completely unafraid of other people's gazes.
"The negotiation failed?" Hai Die 'er asked.
"Yes, it failed." The Rock Demon said.
Hai Die 'er said, "Then why did you agree to give him a month to consider?"
The Rock Demon said, "We need to prepare for a great war. Moreover, there's a saying, 'one won't shed tears until they see the coffin'. After I've repeatedly plundered his merchant ships, destroyed his warships, and made him feel the pain, he might become smarter and agree to my conditions."
"Right, if you want someone to surrender, you have to beat them until they're in pain, break their arms and legs, break their teeth, and then press a sharp dagger against their chest. Only then will they surrender," said Hai Die 'er.
The Rock Demon lovingly caressed her round and beautiful butt and said, "You are the daughter of the Hai Family, but I was plotting how to eliminate the Hai Family and seize Immortal Abode Island. Don't you hate me?"
Hai Die 'er said, "My mother was a white female slave. My father raped her when he was drunk. My status was low since I was young. Until I found one of my father's daughters to marry you, I found out that I was the only virgin among the dozens of daughters. So I hurriedly asked the first madam to adopt me and pretend to be the first wife's daughter to marry you. So compared to the daughter of the Hai Family, I would rather be the high and mighty Rock Queen and see my brothers and sisters kneel at my feet. "
"Well said." The Rock Demon excitedly slapped his wife's butt and pressed her on the deck. He ferociously entered her body and roared, "Give birth to children. Give birth to a lot of children because they will have thousands of miles of territory and millions of people to inherit."
…
As soon as they returned to the Suo Clan's flagship, Yan Chao 'er immediately asked, "How was it?"
Søren said, "The Rock Demon wanted gunpowder, but I refused. Negotiations have broken down. Prepare for war!"
Yan Chao 'er's beautiful brows knitted and said, "Consecutive wars have greatly damaged our vitality. Now is not the time to start a war."
Who said it wasn't?
Tianshui City had just experienced a great war that lasted for a month. Although the casualties were not large, they had spent hundreds of thousands of gold coins on military expenses and astronomical amounts of resources.
Moreover, Søren's most important enemy was Zhi Li. The most important thing now was to reorganize the captives, transform and govern the Southeast Province, and make it into Søren's absolute war potential. Then, he would further expand the army to 200,000, or even more.
Søren had no desire to expand on the sea, so there was nothing to be gained from fighting the Rock Demon.
However, he didn't provoke the Rock Demon, but this half-brother of his took the initiative to fight him.
Most of the time, people really had no choice!
Søren, Jung Yeon, and Yan Chao 'er entered the secret cabin!
At this time, the Rock Demon had completely dominated Søren. Either compromise or fight!
If Søren wouldn't compromise, then they could only fight!
"The Griffins have practiced boarding the ship dozens of times. What's the result?" Søren asked.
Queen Yan Chao 'er said, "There is a certain degree of deterrence, but the results are not obvious. First of all, the Griffins have to fly at an altitude of more than 400 meters to ensure their safety. However, the accuracy of throwing gunpowder bags at this altitude is very poor, even on land. The sea wind is strong, so the error is even greater. The size of the warships is too small, and the distance between the warships is too far, so the accuracy is less than 5%. "
Of course, the most important thing was that there were too few Griffins.
If there were one or two hundred Griffins, even if the accuracy was only 5%, it would be enough to form a carpet bombing.
However, there were only a dozen Griffins against the enemy's thousands of warships, so it was indeed somewhat helpless.
Yan Chao 'er had practiced boarding the Griffins, naval battles, and air raids many times. In the end, she concluded that because of the poor water resistance of the gunpowder bags, throwing gunpowder bags was not as effective as throwing kerosene barrels.
However, regardless of whether it was the kerosene barrels or the gunpowder bags, there was only one conclusion. The Griffins' air raids were a great deterrent in naval battles, but it was still a long way to go before they could decide the outcome of a naval battle, especially a large-scale naval battle!
"Do we have to use our top secret weapon?" Yan Chao 'er asked.
Immediately, Søren and Jung Yeon raised their heads.
The research on this top secret weapon was carried out almost at the same time as the development of the gunpowder. Currently, there were more than a few thousand people invested in it, and the capital invested was more than 200,000 gold coins.
The finished product was produced more than half a year ago, and it could be used in actual combat.
However, Søren really didn't want this weapon to be used prematurely!
Because this thing was the real God of War, and it could completely change the outcome of a war. When Søren wasn't absolutely strong, he really didn't want this thing to be used!
However, the maritime trade was Søren's economic lifeline, and it had to be protected. When it came to a life and death situation, they could only use this weapon to be used prematurely!
"Let's go to the secret shipyard. Let's see how far our top secret weapon has progressed." Søren said.
…
The fast boat sailed with the current!
After the Søren's fleet entered the waters of Sky Water City, they immediately returned to the base. Then, Yan Chao 'er, Jung Yeon and Søren rode their Griffins and flew along the sea, towards another top secret base of Søren, the secret shipyard!
This shipyard was also located in a bay near the Barbarian's territory, and the entire shipyard was located in a huge cave!
The number of people who knew about this top secret shipyard did not exceed ten.
At this time, there were three huge warships floating on the sea surface of the shipyard, and they were as tall as small mountains.
Anyone who saw these three startling warships would suck in a breath of cold air!
These three warships were completely different from all the other warships in this world.
The front, sides and rear of the warships were densely packed with dozens of thick black iron pipes!
That's right, these were cannons, the real God of War!
These were three huge cannon warships, a super weapon that could turn the tide of naval warfare!
A weapon that Søren didn't want to be used prematurely!
