1352 A War Without Smoke (3)
Speaking of which, even if the time in the Eight Views Palace was different from the outside world, forging 10,000 connate divine weapons was definitely not an easy task.
“We don’t have a choice,” Zhou Shu said. “Although the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom has temporarily retreated, you can imagine that the next time they attack, the world will probably collapse. And with the human race’s current strength, we can’t withstand the invasion of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom at all. To put it bluntly, at that time, even if the human race really wants to perish together, it might not be possible.”
“Ten thousand connate divine weapons…” Shi Songtao wanted to say something but hesitated.
“You’re trying to say that even with ten thousand connate divine weapons, the strength of the human race won’t increase much, right?”
Zhou Shu smiled. “That’s right. No matter how strong a divine weapon is, it depends on who uses it. Even if ten thousand connate divine weapons are handed over to the human army, it won’t increase their strength much. It’s impossible for them to defeat the army of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom.”
“Then…”
“These ten thousand connate divine weapons are not for the human army,” Zhou Shu said solemnly. “These ten thousand connate divine weapons are for Lin Kelei.
“I’m using these ten thousand connate divine weapons to hire ten thousand elite soldiers from the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom, three thousand half-step Nomological realm experts and seven thousand Grotto-Heaven realm experts.
“Although it’s still very difficult to defeat the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom with this ten-thousand-strong army, we don’t need to defeat the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom. As long as we block the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom’s army outside the ancestral land, it will be considered a victory for us!”
Shi Songtao gasped. “Three thousand half-step Nomological realm experts and seven thousand Grotto-Heaven realm experts?”
Although he didn’t know what the Nomological realm was, he knew about the Grotto-Heaven realm.
Now, there were at most a few hundred Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the human race.
Shi Songtao couldn’t even imagine what kind of force seven thousand Grotto-Heaven realm almighties were.
Previously, when the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom invaded the ancestral land, they didn’t mobilize so many Grotto-Heaven realm experts.
Moreover, the 3,000 half-step Nomological realm experts were clearly stronger than the Grotto-Heaven realm experts.
If there were really ten thousand reinforcements, it would definitely be timely for the human race.
Shi Songtao looked at Zhou Shu in admiration. As expected of His Highness, only His Highness can invite such powerful reinforcements.
As for the ten thousand connate divine weapons, Shi Songtao chose to ignore them.
What a joke. Since he asked for reinforcements, could he let them work for nothing?
It was only right to provide weapons to others.
“Your Highness, how long do we have?”
At the thought that there might be a way to resolve the human crisis, Shi Songtao was full of energy.
They could save the human race just by forging connate divine weapons. Was there anything better?
“The sooner, the better,” Zhou Shu said. “With Lin Kelei’s speed, he will come back in a month.
“At that time, if we can’t produce ten thousand connate divine weapons, this deal will probably fall through.”
Zhou Shu said solemnly, “Deputy Pavilion Master Shi, I might not be able to forge ten thousand connate divine weapons in a month alone. Therefore, this time, I need all of you to cooperate fully. You have to forge connate divine weapons independently.”
Even if he could change the flow of time with the Heavenly Emperor Jade Book, forging ten thousand connate divine weapons in a month was still a huge gamble.
Previously, he had boasted in front of Lin Kelei that he was rich and generous. But in fact, he knew very well that ten thousand connate divine weapons were not an easy feat for him.
Once Lin Kelei brought the soldiers over, and he had yet to forge ten thousand connate divine weapons, the cooperation between the two sides would probably immediately shatter.
After all, the relationship between him and Lin Keli was now purely a matter of interest. There was no trust between them.
Shi Songtao’s expression became incomparably grave. This concerned the survival of the human race, and he immediately felt pressured. “Your Highness, in that case, why don’t we call Yao Qing over…”
“No, Yao Qing has something to do, and that matter is also very important,” Zhou Shu said. “Deputy Pavilion Master Shi, this is the battle of our Huaxia Pavilion.
“Although there’s no smoke, its success or failure concerns the survival of the human race.
“Are you confident?”
Zhou Shu’s expression was solemn.
Shi Songtao’s heart skipped a beat. He felt a mountain-like burden suddenly fall on him.
Although he had always thought that the responsibility of the Huaxia Pavilion was very important, the Huaxia Pavilion was only the logistics department. He had never felt so much pressure before.
His actions directly concerned the survival of the human race.
While Shi Songtao felt immense pressure, he also felt a little ardor and zeal coursing through his blood.
All along, he had wanted to go into battle with the human soldiers to kill enemies and prove that he, Shi Songtao, was not a useless person who only knew how to hide at the back.
But Zhou Shu had never allowed forgers like them to go to the battlefield.
Now, it was finally Shi Songtao’s turn to shine.
Although it was a war without smoke, war was war. Now, it was time for him, Shi Songtao, to serve the human race!
Shi Songtao said earnestly, “Your Highness, raising soldiers for a thousand days to deploy them at one moment. Our Huaxia Pavilion’s forgers have been painstakingly studying the art of forging for more than a hundred years. We have been waiting for this day! Our Huaxia Pavilion will definitely win this battle!”
“Victory!” the forgers of the Huaxia Pavilion roared.
They were all slightly excited, and their eyes turned red.
Zhou Shu looked at the forgers. Among them, there were people he knew and new talents he didn’t know. But now, they were all full of fighting spirit.
Zhou Shu smiled. “Very good. I knew it. There are definitely no cowards among the forgers of my Huaxia Pavilion.
“Then, let’s begin now.”
He waved his hand, and a light screen appeared in front of everyone. “Remember carefully and forge according to this sequence. We will advance hand in hand and win this war without smoke!”
