Douluo's self-disciplined soul beast

Chapter 448: The lost technology tree

"Father, what is it?"

"Not long ago, you know about the earthquake in the north, right?" Xue Ye didn't answer Xue Qinghe directly, but mentioned the natural disaster that happened before, Xue Qinghe also knew about that earthquake.

Most people still call the earthquake the earth dragon turning over, but the royal family also knows what happened. Although they haven't studied it in detail, they also know that it is one of the natural disasters like the sky fire.

The earthquake did not cause too many casualties, but the subsequent tsunami caused heavy losses to the nearby fishery industry. The temperature in the northern region is extremely polar, and the annual fishing season is not long. This time, fishing boats and fisheries suffered heavy losses. The destruction of the port made large-scale fishing impossible, and only some small boats were not damaged and could still go to sea.

If you want to go to sea on a large scale, you can only recruit fishing boats from other regions, which delays a lot of things for a while

Fishermen are also a part of the nation, and the empire naturally needs disaster relief after such a big event, although the nobles whose property has been lost will definitely get a fortune from it.In order to prevent others from intervening too much and causing complaints, Xue Ye handed over the matter to Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe's ability to do these things is more than enough, and he also wants to test the opponent's ability to see how well he can govern the country.

"Remember, was there something wrong with my handling?"

Qian Renxue is not good at governing the country, she doesn't have that much time to study this issue, but it doesn't matter, Wuhundian has a lot of similar talents, less than half a day after the news was sent back by ghosts, a set of perfect policies was delivered to her.

In the eyes of outsiders, she made a perfect plan overnight, but in fact she was just following the script.She thought that Xue Ye asked her what was wrong.

"No, you handled it well, it's just that the incident happened over there. Later, a fisherman found a piece of land in the sea. He didn't know how big the island was, but in the ruins on the island, he found something magical. The man didn’t know what it was, but he just brought it back and wanted to pay back the money, but fortunately, he was discovered by the people of the empire.”

Speaking of this, Xue Ye is a little bit embarrassed, as if she is lamenting something

"Father, what exactly is that?" Qian Renxue asked this question in a timely manner so that Xue Ye could continue talking.

"It's a soul guide, but it's not a soul guide for space storage, nor a soul guide for life like the ones on the imperial carriage, but a military soul guide for war. The people of the empire discovered it by accident. For this matter, he injected a small amount of soul power into it, and then that thing unexpectedly released an impact no less than a full blow from a great soul master."

"But father, it seems useless, right? Or is there something special about it?" If this weapon only had this kind of power, then it would be a bit tasteless, and it would definitely not attract the attention of a country's emperor.

Although the two empires lack powerful soul masters, there is no shortage of grassroots soul masters.

"That's right, but ordinary people can use that thing after it's fully charged, just like a bow and crossbow. A soldier who has no soul power at all can use this thing freely."

Now Qian Renxue knew why Xue Ye paid so much attention to this item, one great soul master was nothing, ten great soul masters were nothing, even a hundred great soul masters were not too difficult a problem to deal with.

But when the number is in the tens of thousands and attacks can be launched in quick succession, it's not so simple.Low-level soul masters can only choose to run away from the established imperial army, and the combined attacks of the Royal Knights make them not afraid of ordinary soul masters.

If this kind of weapon can really be popularized on a large scale, then even high-level soul masters may not be their opponents, but it will be a major change for the entire continent.And it's just an old antique that I picked up, maybe there is a more powerful existence.

If that were the case, Wuhundian and Shangsanzong, which originally had an absolute advantage in the quality of soul masters, might lose their former limelight when facing an empire with a large population.Even if there is no qualitative change, the waist of the empire will become harder.

Thinking of this, her expression changed, if only Tiandou had this thing, then the layout of the continent would really have to be reshuffled.

"It seems that you have also thought of it, so you should be clear about the importance of this matter to Tiandou."

Seeing the change in Xue Qinghe's face, Xue Ye only thought that he also understood how important this matter was.He hasn't said anything more detailed yet, this is just what the man casually found in the ruins, but there is still a large part of the huge ruins that no one has gone in to investigate, maybe there are better things inside.

"Father, how is the research on this thing? Can it be copied?"

"The technology of soul guides is not so easy. Space soul guides have been researched for so long and have no clue. Only life-like ones can be made. Besides, that thing is too old. After two experiments, it was completely destroyed. Even There is no dross left, it seems that there is some mechanism, or it may be too corrupt."

"So what are you going to do, Father?"

"The personnel of the empire tried to go to the island to search for the ruins, but there seemed to be something left on the island. Soul masters above level 50 couldn't go there at all. Ordinary people would want to escape there after staying for a long time. Now the soldiers of the empire have blocked it. I got the news, but I don’t know how long it can be blocked.”

He knew very well that the empire was not monolithic, especially the teams in the border areas. Although he strictly ordered the blockade, the news would leak out sooner or later.

"I need you to find a group of reliable people from within the empire, with soul power between level 40 and level 50. Search the ruins as soon as possible to find enough samples. It's better to have technology, and then... destroy it. .”

This is the best way to deal with it. Relying on the advance amount to quickly search for the loot, and then destroy the things that cannot be taken away, although this will cause a lot of losses, it can bring great benefits to Tiandou.If all goes well, within a few years, Tiandou will be able to truly overwhelm Xingluo with his strength, and it is not impossible to even overwhelm the Hall of Spirits.

And the reason why he entrusted Xue Qinghe to do this matter is to hope that this power can be controlled in the hands of the royal family, so that Tiandou's imperial power can be further concentrated, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

He was worried about the existing soul masters in the empire, so he sent his confidants to recruit some newcomers from this year's academy to replace those soul masters who were 100% placed by others.

"I understand, but Father, is this kind of thing really credible? I haven't seen anything, could it be... After all, the technology of the soul guide has been lost for many years."

Existing soul guides, except for a small number of daily necessities that have been handed down, their production methods have long been lost, especially the most frequently used space storage soul guides by soul masters, most of which are left over from ancient times. They are old antiques, and some of them have been passed down for an unknown number of years.

Moreover, one thing is broken and one less thing is missing. It's not that no one has tried to reproduce it, but no one has ever succeeded, and it has lost a lot of precious soul guides.

"I have established the Heaven Dou Empire so far, do you know what the Heaven Dou Empire looked like before it was established?"

"Separate rule by heroes." This is royal history, Qian Renxue has memorized this point, she knows the history of Tiandou imperial family very well, including the chaotic period before the founding of the country.

"What about before?"

"This...I don't know." Not only did he not know about Xue Qinghe, but she also didn't know about Qian Renxue, because she had not seen any records about that, Tiandou had not seen it, and she had not read about Wuhun Palace. Been to something similar.

"That part is something that only the emperor can see, and you can see it after you ascend the throne, but what is known is that before that chaotic period, long ago, the mainland was once unified, and it was a very prosperous place. empire."

The world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. Before Tiandou, it was divided by heroes, but it was unified before that, and that empire relied not only on powerful soul masters, but also powerful soul guides.

"Today's soul guides are all left over from the period of that empire. Later, when the empire was destroyed, the production methods and craftsmen of the soul guides were all taken away by the survivors of the imperial royal family. It is said that they went overseas and established a small overseas country. , but these are somewhat similar to legends.”

There are soul guides on the mainland, but no one can make this kind of soul guide, so where do these soul guides come from?

Obviously, this thing didn't pop out of the stone. As tools used by humans, these tools were naturally created by humans, but there was a huge fault in the middle.

Years of wars caused similar technologies to be completely lost. In addition, the empire paid great attention to this aspect of technology at the time, and all the craftsmen were taken away. Over time, the source of the soul tool became a mystery. people forget.

In this era, common people don’t have the concept of a country, and what they want is food and clothing, so it doesn’t matter who is the emperor to the common people, as long as they can eat, clothe and live, no one will rebel.

"How distracted you are from this matter, I will let the Royal Knights form an elite group to accompany you to protect your safety."

"understood."

An hour later, Yue Guan appeared next to Bibi Dong with the news of the ghost, and told the whole story, so Bibi Dong had the idea to inform Xing Luo.

After all, it is the domain of Tiandou. It is impossible for Wuhundian to grab it. Even Tiandou will not agree to such a thing. This is an opportunity for the rise of the empire. No one will give up, so it is not good for Wuhundian to intervene directly , Wuhundian also has its own face.

But Xing Luo doesn't care, they are also an empire, especially this kind of thing, Xing Luo can't just sit back and watch Tiandou get these things, even if it takes an expedition, Xing Luo will definitely step in, as long as the Spirit Hall has If there is no reason to intervene, you can join in on the grounds of mediation.

At the same time, the corresponding news was also sent to various sects, and in less than a day, all the respectable people in the entire continent knew about it.

Steel Mane was no exception, and he quickly sent Ye Qing the summarized news.

Not long after Ye Qing returned to the Star Dou Great Forest, he received this news, and the news compiled by the steel mane is more detailed, and even the external map is roughly drawn.Although I don't know what it looks like inside, the location of the island is clearly marked.

Looking at the information collected by Steel Mane, Ye Qing always felt a little familiar, he seemed to have heard of this place.

"Bing'er, take a look." Ye Qing immediately called for Bingdi.

"Why did you call me?" Ice Empress poked her head out from the side room, and the remaining insect limbs at the corner of her mouth showed what she was doing just now.

Pointing to the map drawn by the steel bristle, Ye Qing asked.

"Bing'er, does this place look familiar? Whose territory is near there?"

"You show it to me."

Looking at the map, Ice Empress thought about the location in the picture.

"This is the far north, over there is Xue'er's territory, and this side is mine... This coastal area is also mine, and my territory goes north... I remembered, this is not the sea The princess’s territory? The sea princess clan is in the nearby sea, it should be here.”

"Princess Sea... I'll call and ask."

He took out the phone bug and dialed the number of Princess Hai. After a while, the phone bug changed into a mermaid costume.

"Isn't this Lord Qingdi? What's the matter?"

"It's not a big deal. The south part of your territory is close to the west of the Far North. Has there ever been any country there?"

"....In the sea?"

"Yes."

There was a moment of silence on the other side of the phone bug, and then the voice of the sea princess continued: "Do you still remember when I told you about the relationship between our sea princess family and the half-merfolk?"

"remember."

Ye Qing has not forgotten this matter, back then a group of people were arrogant, thousands of people claimed to be a country, and they wanted to enslave the entire mermaid clan.At that time, Princess Hai was about to go mad with anger, and directly led the tribe to flood the country with a tsunami, and the island sank later, turning into a ruins under the sea.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing understood something.

"You mean that's where the underwater ruins are?"

"That's right, although there are few people in that group, they are all very proud. They occupy a large piece of land over there, and there are a bunch of strange things. They are very different from soul masters. It should be the land that was destroyed in the first place." The island, but I have never seen it, this is the word handed down by the sea princess back then."

Speaking of this, Ye Qing understood how the soul tool was lost, the history recorded by Tiandou is correct, there was indeed an empire on the mainland, let's call it a super ancient empire.

The technology of this empire was very advanced, but it was just a soul-guided technology that distorted the technology tree. After retiring to the island, it was still extremely arrogant, and finally angered the sea princess at that time.

At that time, Poseidon had not become the god of the sea, and the sea princess was also extremely powerful, and destroyed the empire with the power of nature.

All this eventually led to the loss of soul-guided technology, and also set back the development history of the mainland a lot. With fewer and fewer soul-guided devices left and no related technology and mentors, future generations want to reproduce this technology Very difficult.

Coupled with the obscurity policy implemented by the empire in order to rule, no one can make that kind of soul guide in the end.
