Chapter 2126
He was born in the Kite Kingdom and is the son of the current Shen King. What does Spirit Void City think of this?
"I haven't heard my father mention it." He Yue thought carefully, "Before I set out, the Treasure Elephant Demon Kingdom seemed to have just signed three or four border trade agreements with my country, so it was quite harmonious."
He Lingchuan nodded slowly.
"Big brother, Spirit Void City isn't causing us trouble—what do you think is the reason?"
"Naraka Heaven." He Lingchuan spoke frankly, "First, my development is already independent of He Chunhua, and he cannot interfere. Even if Beijia goes to cause trouble for Shen, it would be useless—great nations usually don't engage in meaningless quarrels; second, Shen was ultimately established by the Kshatriya Heaven—let me be blunt, don't get angry—the gods of Spirit Void are currently in internal turmoil and probably don't want to provoke Naraka Heaven for now."
He glanced at He Yue's worry: "You can tell from the recent frequency of imperial flow slurry appearing that the heavens are quite chaotic. I think Shen doesn't need to worry about Beijia's retaliation in the short term."
He Yue visibly relaxed: "That's good. Father, the king also said the same, but I always feel he's only reporting good news, not worries, deliberately comforting us."
He Lingchuan laughed. This foolish boy clearly told him he trusts his elder brother more than his father.
However, once He Chunhua's nature is revealed, others find it hard to place trust in him.
This is his own doing.
He Yue hesitated again.
He Lingchuan personally poured him a cup of tea: "But speaking is fine."
"Big brother, I heard Ya Kingdom is very strong." He Yue spoke softly, "Why are you sending troops now?"
He Lingchuan said leisurely: "If I were to attack a weak country, could it deter other powers? Could it allow Cangyan to hold its head high on this land?"
"That makes sense." He Yue asked when he didn't understand, "By the way, Mr. Dong brought me to observe the battlefield today, and the Dragon God Army's vanguard held knives and spears that pierced armor and broke through defenses as if entering an empty realm—even Ya Kingdom's yuan force couldn't block them!"
This was exaggerated by three parts, after all, he was praising his own brother. Ya Army wasn't that weak, but he was indeed curious.
"They are special weapons." New weapons appearing on the open battlefield can't stay secret for long, so He Lingchuan doesn't mind leaking them, "Compared to ordinary weapons, they have one or two additional custom properties, such as armor-piercing, sharpness, explosion, etc. This is a legacy from antiquity; as the world's spiritual energy density gradually recovers to ancient levels, these old formulas can be used again."
He took a sip of his cup: "The opponent's yuan force still functions. Let me give you a rough analogy: the Black Armor Army's original attack power, after being reduced by the opponent's yuan force resistance, would be five tenths; with special weapons, it could still be one or two tenths more than before. Of course, the actual effect depends on the opponent's yuan force. But battlefield victory sometimes hinges on the slightest margin—even a one-point increase is good. Ha, if the opponent's yuan force is weak, then the special weapons' effectiveness is even greater."
He Yue exclaimed: "That's incredible!"
Becoming stronger on the original basis, even by just one or two points, when placed on the battlefield, increases the chances of victory.
He marveled: "Opened my eyes—I've never seen this on the battlefield before."
Over a year ago, in Shen's founding war, soldiers still held pure cold weapons. Indeed, this trip wasn't wasted—arriving at my brother's territory, I can see these novel good things.
He Lingchuan laughed: "Don't say it's just you—Ya Kingdom is also seeing this for the first time. You kid picked a lucky moment."
The great battle lasted two days; early on, both sides engaged in indirect contact, until today when the main forces appeared, the Black Armor Army unveiled the special weapons as their trump card, indeed delivering a small shock to the enemy.
How long has Ya Kingdom existed? Their troops had never encountered special weapons before, and this time they were thrown into chaos by the Black Armor Army's assault.
They still suffered from lacking history/culture.
The gap between special weapons and ordinary weapons is too great; according to He Lingchuan's knowledge, Beijia and Mu Kingdom's frontlines only have a few troops possessing them, and they haven't achieved large-scale deployment.
The world's spiritual energy density has just recovered, and human warfare won't catch up that quickly.
Unless there is a driving force.
However, the changing environment will inevitably bring new forms, new weapons, and new propositions to war—whoever reacts first and adjusts in time gains the initiative;
Whoever remains like a frog in warm water being boiled will suffer heavy losses on the battlefield.
He Yue was greatly moved: "Can these special weapons be custom-made?"
"Of course, but they require specific materials and formulas." He Lingchuan smiled, "Fortunately, I have abundant mineral resources on the Flash Gold Plains."
Is the formula hard to obtain? Nonsense, of course it's hard!
These are materials preserved from antiquity—very few countries in the world can possess them.
At this moment, whether it's Lingshan or Mu Kingdom, their relations with Cangyan are not pleasant, so they would never share the special weapons formula with it.
But this doesn't stump He Lingchuan, because he has another more convenient acquisition channel:
Panlong World!
In Panlong World, Lingshan and Panlongcheng reached an agreement: not only did they open the special weapons formula to Panlongcheng, but they also transported materials from the Flash Gold Plains to it.
He Lingchuan now controls the Flash Gold Plains, lacks no such materials, and will start work immediately upon obtaining the formula!
Special weapons aren't easy to make—Moyang Prefecture, after obtaining the formula, tested seven or eight versions consecutively before producing a sample with stable quality, controllable properties, and suitability for the current spiritual energy environment, only then enabling mass production.
Due to stability in the manufacturing process and proficiency in craftsmanship, a few months' time is insufficient for rushed production, so only part of He Lingchuan's Black Armor Army can be equipped with them.
He must ensure the special weapons play their most important role in the most critical battle, so he has held back until today to deploy them as a trump card.
The effect was indeed extraordinary.
He Yue immediately asked: "Does Shen Kingdom have these materials?"
He Lingchuan shook his head. The former Panlongcheng didn't have them, and now Shen Kingdom doesn't either.
"Then, can our country purchase these materials from the Flash Gold Plains in the future?" He Yue, as an envoy, naturally thought of national interest first: "Um, I mean, after the special weapons' secret can be made public."
He Lingchuan smiled faintly: "If Shakra Heaven holds the formula, I don't mind selling the materials to Shen Kingdom now. Otherwise, we'll just have to wait a bit longer."
He Yue nodded: "Understood!"
He thought for a moment, still couldn't help but ask: "Big brother, just based on special weapons, are you really going to attack Ya Kingdom?"
Special weapons and ordinary weapons are indeed not of the same era. But...
"How much do you know about Ya Kingdom?"
"Ya Kingdom?" He Yue recalled the materials he had read, "I heard it's a powerful kingdom spanning from Mu Kingdom to the Flash Gold Plains, with military strength second only to Mu Kingdom."
"Correct, and there's more?"
