Chapter 851: Resources Worth 300 Billion
Chapter 851: Resources Worth 300 Billion
"Three Eighth-Rankers? That's not bad," Dragon King Cadrizzar nodded his massive head.
The Skrulls have a total of seven Eighth-Rankers. I wonder if humans on Earth can match that number.
And there's a difference even among Eighth-Rankers.
Peak Eighth-Rankers like Plante and Chancellor Cao are often the equivalent of three to four ordinary Eighth-Rankers.
For humans to truly defeat the Skrulls, they need both the numbers and the quality.
"And what about Fifth to Seventh-Rankers? How many do you think there are?" Cadrizzar asked with concern.
Zhong Feng thought for a moment and replied seriously, "The exact number isn't clear yet, but the United Government of Earth is running a '7+70+700' program. The goal is to cultivate high-ranking warriors capable of matching the Skrulls..."
Zhong Feng patiently explained the current efforts on Earth in detail.
He was actually quite pleased that Dragon King Cadrizzar had raised this question.
If the Dragon King was asking, it meant they were willing to cooperate with humans.
Zhong Feng didn't exaggerate and described the current situation on Earth accurately.
...
Zhong Feng spoke for about twenty minutes.
When he finished, Dragon King Cadrizzar poured him a cup of spring water and handed it to him, "Thank you for your efforts!"
Then, it added seriously, "Zhong Feng, I truly hope to stand by your side. For the future of the dragon race, we are willing to take the risk.
But you know the current situation on Dragon Island..."
"Your Majesty, I understand the dragon race's current predicament," Zhong Feng said solemnly. "With the current strength of the dragon race, you can't match the Skrulls. My suggestion is that we keep our cooperation secret.
We humans plan to establish a secret base on Dragon Island to operate behind enemy lines. We hope for your support!"
Zhong Feng laid out his objective.
Dragon King Cadrizzar didn't hesitate and immediately replied, "Alright, I can help you build the secret base and provide protection for your people.
However, you must not expose our cooperation. In the fight against the Skrulls, we can consider you a trustworthy ally."
Zhong Feng felt a surge of joy and quickly assured, "Rest assured, I will ensure absolute secrecy!"
"Very well, I believe you will be a good comrade-in-arms," Cadrizzar extended its massive claw in front of Zhong Feng.
Zhong Feng immediately placed his hand on the claw and said earnestly, "I look forward to our joint efforts in eradicating the Skrulls!"
...
After another half-hour of conversation, Zhong Feng proposed to leave Skrull Star and return to Earth.
The spatial tunnel to Earth was already open, and he needed to get back as soon as possible.
However, before leaving, he needed to visit the Makaton Kingdom to collect enough Moonlight Positioning Stones.
When Zhong Feng mentioned his departure, Cadrizzar didn't try to retain him.
But it suddenly remembered something and said, "Zhong Feng, why don't you wait a bit longer? I'll inform the other Dragon Kings. They all have gifts for you to bring back to Earth."
Zhong Feng had no reason to refuse and simply said, "Alright."
...
Half an hour later, the Red, White, Blue, Green, and Black Dragon Kings arrived together, entering the Dragon King's lair.
Each dragon handed Zhong Feng a spatial ring or a spatial storage device and said, "Zhong Feng, take these back with you. It's a small token of our appreciation."
"We'll keep these items, though they might not be useful to us, they should help accelerate your planet's development."
Zhong Feng did not refuse the gifts from the Dragon Kings.
He opened the spatial rings and storage devices, and found that each contained at least a hundred cubic meters of space.
In these vast spaces, gold, various types of precious metals, spirit stones, and high-tier equipment were densely packed.
Zhong Feng did a rough estimate.
In the five storage devices, there were over a hundred tons of gold alone! The large spirit stones were too heavy to estimate.
Even with a quick mental calculation, the total value of the items in the five storage spaces was at least 400 billion Lianyang coins, and together, the total value was not less than 2 trillion Lianyang coins!
This was indeed a colossal fortune!
It wasn't just the five Dragon Kings; the Dragon Emperor also had something to say.
He took out a spatial storage device and handed it to Zhong Feng: "Zhong Feng, I know your planet is in dire need of gold. I've inventoried my stock over the past three days, and I have 300 tons of gold here, all of which I am gifting to you now. Consider it a repayment for exposing the 'Dragon's Threshold' research facility."
Zhong Feng took the round, disc-shaped storage device from the Dragon Emperor, and checked inside. Indeed, it contained 15 cubic meters of pure gold, almost devoid of any impurities.
Besides the gold, the storage space was also filled with spirit stones and some high-tier equipment.
Most of this equipment was crafted by the Skrulls for use by the Skrulls, and the dragons found aesthetically pleasing, now they decided to give it all to the humans of Lianxing.
The value of the items in the Dragon Emperor's storage space was at least 100 billion Lianyang coins, and all of them were physical items, not just worthless currency. The dragons were indeed generous this time!
Zhong Feng was deeply moved by the genuine words of the Dragon Kings.
However, he did not intend to accept these precious items without any conditions.
Since the humans of Lianxing and the dragons had formed an alliance, allies should benefit each other.
The dragons had given him 3000 billion Lianyang coins worth of items, and now it was time to display their sincerity.
He looked at the five Dragon Kings and the Dragon Emperor, and said, "On behalf of the humans of Lianxing, I thank you all for your generosity. However, as allies, we should not have one-sided gift-giving. We should both benefit each other and ensure Zhong Feng stood his sincerity and determination, and the alliance between the humans of Lianxing and the dragons should be strong and mutually beneficial.
