Lord Yunzhong in Douluo

Chapter 464 The monopoly that will be shaken

Heaven Dou Empire, Calisia Province, Solius City, late at night.

On the dark street, there was no noise on the once prosperous street.

After the war between the two empires, this city in the south of the Heaven Dou Empire gradually disappeared under the continuation of the war. More and more residents began to move north following the order of the province, and more and more The soldiers and armed forces gradually refilled the ever-empty city.

Later, Suo Liusi City became an important transit hub in the Tiandou Empire, a large number of people and materials kept coming and going, but also because of its proximity to the front line, when the war between the two countries was at its most intense, this place was repeatedly hit by Star Luo. Attack of the army.

The city lord of Suo Liusi City once hesitated whether to temporarily transfer materials to preserve power, but fortunately, Suo Liusi City survived, and it was not breached until the official end of the Wuhun Palace, and it was still firm on the territory of Tiandou.

At present, due to the intervention of Wuhundian, the Xingluo army in Tiandou territory began to retreat, pulling the front line back again, most of them re-entered the territory of Barak Principality, and turned from offense to defense. Under this situation, Suo Liusi City The tense situation has gradually improved, but due to the previous war, the night has become much more bleak, and there are only lonely lights left on the dark streets.

Under the dim light, a thin man walked towards the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city along the trail of lights, holding a long pole tightly wrapped in cloth strips, making it hard to see what it was .

"Tap..."

The subtle footsteps are particularly special in the quiet night. Some nocturnal creatures wandering in the city walk on the roofs of houses and houses. Their eyes blended with the night are somewhat curious, looking in the direction of the footsteps. , and even a few bold guys relied on their whereabouts to hide and leaned towards the man.

"Snapped!"

"Meow!"

A stone hit a roof near the street, and a stray cat hiding on it screamed in fright, then its hair exploded, and it fled the place a few times.

The man looked away, and after driving away the little tail that followed him out of curiosity, he felt better.

Although these little tails will not cause any impact if they keep up, he just doesn't like it.

The thin man's movement speed was not slow, his legs alternated back and forth, and after a short while, he passed through this not-so-big city and arrived outside the city lord's mansion.

Stopping, the man looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he pushed open the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and walked in.

"Take me to see my elder brother, I have something important to show the owner."

"plz follow me."

The thin man followed behind a servant whose hair was long in front and short in back, and quickly walked to the room where the castellan was, a room with candle lights and lights flickering through the windows.

"Knock knock, big brother, it's me Jarvis."

"Come in by yourself."

Hearing this, the thin man pushed open the door and walked in.

"Is there something wrong with you coming back this time? I remember you should be fighting Xing Luo on the front line now?"

A purple-haired man with a canary and copper sparrow pattern carved and embroidered on his clothes was sitting on a chair, holding a bowl of tea in his hand, blowing on the surface of the tea, lowering the temperature of the tea. The clan brother who came in asked.

Looking at the dark night outside the window, the thin man with a pole in his hand wandered his gaze over the teacup in the hands of the city lord for a while, thinking whether drinking tea at night would make him sleepless, while kneeling in the He bowed his head on the ground and replied:

"Brother, the Xingluo army is currently locked up, turning from offense to defense. The troops of the Empire and the Wuhun Temple are attacking from north to south, blocking them to death. The current battle is not tense. It is not a big problem if I am missing on the front line. I sneaked back, and I have to rush back tomorrow."

The purple-haired city lord closed the lid of the teacup, put the teacup on the table beside him, put his hands on the armrest, looked at the thin man and frowned: "What on earth is it worth you to come back and run in person, the military?" It's not like they don't have a family, can't you just ask them to send it back?"

Pointing to the seat beside him, the purple-haired city lord motioned for the thin man to sit down.

The Galides family is a family rooted in the province of Calisia.

Although the scale is not comparable to those of the princely family and the hereditary nobles in Tiandou City, it can still be regarded as a family with certain influence in the Tiandou Empire, especially in the province of Calisia. There are people from the Garides family in all walks of life in business and industry, and they seem to be the biggest local snakes in the province of Calisia.

The owner of the purple-haired city is the owner of the current generation of the Garides family and the owner of Solius City, and the thin man is a general of the armed forces of the province of Calisia.

The thin man handed the pole wrapped in cloth strips to the purple-haired city lord, sat on the seat, and said:

"Brother, you also know that in this battle, the Hall of Spirits has newly used several powerful weapons, and those who wield these new weapons have the ability to outnumber ten. And Hall of Spirits also attaches great importance to these weapons. After the battle, the number of weapons will be checked and counted to prevent weapons from wandering."

"All these, I entrusted my relationship in the Wuhun Temple, and troubled them to forge some loss records on the inventory list, so I got some of them. Brother, you don't even know how much effort I spent on these weapons .”

After the Wuhun Palace officially launched war against the Star Luo Empire, several armed legions armed with "guns" and "cannons" appeared on the battlefield, starting from Wuhun City and approaching south and north.

The terrifying destructive power of these strangely shaped weapons is enough to make the hearts of most forces on the mainland itch.

When the purple-haired city lord untied the cloth strips and looked at the guns inside, the thin man kept lobbying:

"Brother, I have carefully checked these 'guns'. The name is really a mouthful. To be honest, I don't even know how to write the word 'arms'."

"I have seen the structure of these firearms, and they are actually not particularly complicated. Although the strength of some components is indeed difficult to achieve, even if the quality is poor, it should not be a big problem to use, but the service life will be shorter. With our family If you have a sample and spend more time, you should be able to imitate it.”

Speaking of this, the thin man also took out a bag from the storage soul guide: "In addition to the firearms, I also brought back some bullets and gunpowder powder."

"Brother, with this group of armed forces, our family will be even stronger, and with the achievements of the war between the two countries, maybe the entire Calisia will only be left with our Garides family in the future." the sound of."

A firearm was taken apart, the purple-haired city lord checked the parts, frowned, and after reading all the things the skinny man brought back, he asked in a low voice:
"These weapons don't require soul power, do they?"

Hearing the Patriarch's words, the thin man froze for a moment, then nodded and replied: "That's right, these weapons don't require soul power to use, so the manufacturing difficulty should be lower than those soul guides. Provided that there are enough resources , should be able to be mass-produced.”

Purple-haired city lord: "..."

"Jarvis, the family can study these weapons and figure out how to counter them, but they must not manufacture them on a large scale."

"If possible, we should even unite with other soul master families on the mainland to resist killing this weapon."

The thin man's eyes were wide open, and the doubts in his eyes were very obvious: "Why? Isn't this a very convenient weapon? It is also easy to use, and it is easy to assemble an army that has always been extremely powerful! Shouldn't we develop them? ?”

"Jarvis, do you know why our family can have the current status in Calisia Province?"

"Naturally, it's because our family has excellent bloodlines, outstanding martial arts talent, and possesses strength that ordinary people don't have!" The skinny man answered very simply.

"Yes, our status is due to our strength. Similarly, the special status that soul masters have on the mainland today is also because only our soul masters have power, and ordinary people cannot compete with us."

"So as long as we monopolize power, our position will not be shaken."

"but……"

Tapping the gun in his hand with his fingers, the tone of the purple-haired city lord was very serious:

"Now there is such a weapon that can exert great power without soul power on the mainland. Have you ever thought that if this weapon is produced and developed on a large scale, the power will no longer be monopolized by soul masters!"

"Even ordinary people without soul power can use this to attack and kill a powerful soul master."

"When it is discovered that the strong can also be killed to leave blood, the awe in the hearts of the weak will continue to decrease. And the decrease in awe means that the status is shaken."

"Power is no longer unique to us, so ordinary people's awe of us will continue to decrease, and the transcendent status of our soul masters may no longer exist."

"So Jarvis, as soul masters, even though we know the power and potential of this weapon called guns and gunpowder, we still have to resist its development."

"It's nothing else, it's just for our benefit and status."
