Chapter 130: Various Parties Involved, Pressure on Munitions Supply
Chapter 130: Various Parties Involved, Pressure on Munitions Supply
"Master, the pressure on munitions production is too high. We need to increase production as soon as possible. The front lines have already started fighting, and although it hasn't reached a critical point yet, it's coming soon," Black Hand said with a serious tone.
Today is the fifth day. After just a few days of probing, the war has officially broken out, with the six servers entangled in chaotic battles.
The True Dragon Son is being held back by Jiang Tianjun from the eerie village server, while the remaining Death Lord and others are each facing their own opponents.
However, Qin Muye did not go to the front lines. Instead, he has been entrusted with a large number of munitions orders.
This is quite normal. Qin Muye is only a 4th-stage lord, so why would he involve himself in battles among 6th-stage lords? Additionally, his territory is located in the heart of the Magic Continent, which is relatively safe.
In just five short days, out of the 77 lords in the six servers, 23 have been eliminated, leaving only 54 remaining. The fighting has been intense.
Even Qin Muye can vaguely feel the entire Magic Continent trembling.
This is due to the True Dragon Son, the deities, Jiang Tianjun, and the major tricks from the opposing world battling each other.
In addition, the Corpse King is leading a large number of king-level zombies, clashing with Chen Sheng and his band of mutated beast kings from the neighboring server.
The Sea Dragon King is piloting his ghost ship, continuously breaking through the ice in the extremely cold ice lands to confront Han Mei.
Basically, everyone is paired up one-on-one, all waiting for the True Dragon Son and Jiang Tianjun to determine the victor. Their rankings represent their strength, so no one dares to underestimate them.
Therefore, except for Jiang Tianjun, the others are picking the easier targets.
Qin Muye has also dispatched a large number of mimetic dragon blood goblins as spies to the other five servers for reconnaissance.
He wants to pick the easier targets as well, but due to his own limitations, he dares not venture out. So, he is conducting lightning raids, using the super-time-space transmission channel to teleport his entire army to eliminate the enemy after the dragon blood goblins gather intelligence.
"Then increase production. If that doesn't work, send a batch of people to the Hell of the Horror Universe. The munitions production cannot stop. In just five days, we have gained a large amount of resources from this war. If it continues for another one or two months, the resources for the floating city will be sufficient."
Qin Muye thought for a moment. During wartime, munitions are naturally the most sought-after. Especially since Qin Muye's Crimson series munitions have been discounted, they are now both high-quality and affordable, so the orders are naturally increasing.
"Yes, Master, but this will increase daily costs," Black Hand said.
"Don't worry about it. Do you really need to be concerned about this? Alright, I know what you want to say. Here, take the super-time-space transmission channel. This is the foundation of our operations. Don't lose it, and it's best to use it in the material warehouse," Qin Muye knew that Black Hand wasn't really worried about the costs. Compared to the benefits, the costs were just a minor issue.
What Black Hand truly wanted was the super-time-space transmission channel. With this, traveling to the Horror Universe would be much easier, and subsequent munitions production could keep up.
"Stop beating around the bush. It gives me a headache. Just say it directly. Here," Qin Muye handed the super-time-space transmission channel to Black Hand.
"Thank you, Master. I'll go get to work then," Black Hand took the channel and left. He was busy every day, even with the steward goblins and newly added heroes helping to manage. With the family business growing, there were naturally more tasks, especially with Qin Muye's floating city plan and munitions preparations.
Currently, apart from the Magic Continent, the remaining five servers have all been hit by multiple Crimson Invasions, even the latest version of the Crimson Hell.
The worst off are the Wasteland City and the Zombie Nation. The mutated beasts and zombies in these worlds have undergone significant evolutionary mutations.
If successful, they will become vicious Red Prison beasts and Red Prison zombies, no longer under the control of the original lords and inhabitants, and extremely aggressive, biting anyone they see.
Fortunately, their strength is not very high. Compared to radiation and decay, these Red Prison mutants are a minor issue.
The Fertile Ocean is in a better position. Since most of it is water, even if the Crimson Hell and Crimson Invasions break out, they will only form clumps of red crystals floating on the surface.
The lords' territories in the Fertile Ocean are ships, which are highly mobile on the sea.
So even if they can't win, they can always run away. Unfortunately, the Crimson series munitions target more than just individuals or factions; they affect the entire world's environment.
Explosions, whether it be once, twice, or even a hundred times, might not show immediate effects, but over time, the entire world will be engulfed in intense radiation, creating an extreme environment similar to hellish erosion and crimson radiation.
Apart from the mutated beasts and zombies in Wasteland City and the Zombie Nation, other species are unlikely to survive and adapt to the environment in such a high-intensity war. This action could have endless repercussions.
Qin Muye is unsure how the Magic Continent will break its limits after wiping out the lords from the other servers. If it just grows in place, it might be manageable, but if it merges with the other five servers, it could spell disaster.
"To be honest, I've always been curious about what the requirements are for a 6th-stage lord to advance to the 7th stage. It seems to be holding so many people back."
However, he knows one thing: all lords initially come from 6th-stage servers, and to break through to the 7th stage, they must fight their way through.
"Never mind, I can't do anything about them. I can only try to get a small share of the spoils." Qin Muye understands that if he were to destroy a 6th-stage champion-level lord's forces, he would indeed gain a significant amount of resources.
Unfortunately, such thoughts are best left aside. Given the current situation, a 4th-stage lord can win relatively easily, a 5th-stage lord would need the Crimson Hell for coverage attacks, and 6th-stage lords already have the capability to counter and even clear such attacks.
This isn't because the Crimson Hell bombs are ineffective, but because Qin Muye hasn't had the chance to further develop them. He needs to reach at least the 5th stage for that.
"The other servers aren't just about lords; they also have other factions."
The lords of the servers have long been monitored by the top-ranked lords. Qin Muye's Magic Continent has developed relatively well, with figures like the True Dragon Son, the Death Lord, and the Demon Subduing Scholar, along with the relatively normal native inhabitants, which is why he hasn't been affected yet.
In Wasteland City and the Zombie Nation, the lords of those servers have temporarily allied with intelligent mutated beasts and zombies, but most of these mutated beasts and zombies lack intelligence and are only interested in living things, often betraying their lords.
The sea beasts of the Fertile Ocean are similar, but their numbers are fewer, and many are intelligent. However, the native inhabitants of the Fertile Ocean are mostly marine races, which limits their effectiveness on land. Additionally, their territories are ships, which are highly mobile but cover a smaller area.
Each server has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Qin Muye's Magic Continent also has its share of drawbacks, such as fixed mana recovery and mystical arts, unless they have artifacts, special skills, or talents.
Furthermore, other servers offer more diverse and numerous skills.
There are also drawbacks like reliance on magic and troop adaptability.
However, there are also advantages, such as instant-cast spells, specialized magic and troop-enhancing magical artifacts, and various fantastical races forming troops.
Each server has its own strengths and weaknesses.
Qin Muye has gathered this information through his own searches and from other lords on the Magic Continent.
Now, the trading market and chat channels have become completely deserted, as they are shared among the six servers, and no one wants to communicate with their enemies.
Even idle chatter is avoided, as it could lead to unwanted attention from enemies, which would be counterproductive.
Qin Muye hasn't given it much thought; the chat channels and trading market have always been more of a formality.
After all, with so few people, good items won't be sold, and ordinary items won't be of interest to anyone.
Even before, Qin Muye's trades didn't go through the trading market.
"Once I acquire the specialties from Wasteland City and the Zombie Nation, I can update the Crimson Hell again."
"For now, I'll focus on researching the Gargoyle-level armor."
Qin Muye is quite optimistic about the mutated beasts and zombies. They seem to have mutated due to some form of energy, otherwise, without an energy environment, his Crimson Hell wouldn't be able to detonate in those servers.
If he acquires these two types of creatures and combines them with the bio-tech of the Iron Blood Civilization and some Chrysanthemum Beast genes, he can create cheap biological weapons.
