Chapter 1449: Chapter 248: Because I Am the Prophet!
But even so, Xiawei Territory has a three hundred mber Energized Rifle Shooting Brigade and a seventy mber Magnetic Storm Armor Squadron.
In addition, counting Ian’s own Armor Suit “Cyclops Giant,” two other suits are also being manufactured.
“Make a few more.”
Upon hearing this, Ian gave the instruction: “Xiawei Territory has been upgraded to an Earl’s domain, and the surrounding Mountain People’s Autonomous Region is already my territory. Three armor suits are far from enough; at least twelve are barely adequate for my requirents.”
“If we weren’t strapped for cash, I’d really like to make thirty, forming an armor battalion.”
“Boss, only Scott, Gu Ying, and I can drive the armor suits.”
Qingchao responded seriously: “Among those mountain people, only Elder Mantle’s faction is trustworthy, but even they can only find three people to drive the armor suits.”
“Even though our territory has enough resources to produce and buy once the mountain people’s mines are operational… training drivers can’t be rushed.”
“Then spend a few years cultivating them. Qingchao, those ‘Sublimator Reservists’ you’ve been teaching must all learn to drive armor suits in the future. That’s your task.”
Ian calmly said: “As for now, we must ensure we have enough armor suits in reserve — did you think my prophecies at Nauman City were all false? Fiery Fla Land will definitely make big moves in the near future, and we must be prepared.”
“Having armor suits without drivers is better than having drivers without armor suits.”
The logic indeed holds; given Ian’s resolve, Qingchao had no reason to refuse.
Still, Qingchao had other concerns: “Boss, since Fiery Fla Land will surely make big moves soon, how should we respond?”
Ian looked at Qingchao strangely, puzzled: “Didn’t I spell it all out in my prophecy at Nauman City?”
“On the coastal side, I’ve already entrusted Marquis Barton to dispatch the South Sea Fleet to patrol. The King of the Mountain can be set aside for now; Sio will survey around the mountains to ensure we don’t lose airspace control.”
“As for us, we must guard several areas between the Bison Mountain Range and Fiery Fla Land. At the very least, establish warning towers so they can’t covertly send more Constructed Knights like before.”
“Huh…”
The blue-haired swordsman grew sowhat confused, wondering, “But haven’t you prophesied these ans, boss? They should avoid these tactics that have already been exposed…”
To this, Ian slightly shook his head.
“I only use prophecy to influence Fiery Fla Land.” He patiently explained: “These are indeed the current flaws in the Southern Ridge Defense Line. I openly point them out under the na of prophecy, partly to pressure the Naling Nobility, forcing them to prepare as well, and to pressure Fiery Fla Land, making them hesitate and consider other approaches.”
“No one wants to undertake a plan their adversaries have clearly seen through.”
“But all this is predicated on our genuine ability to block enemy invasions, otherwise, if Fiery Fla Land attacks head-on and we fail to stop it, what’s the difference between foreseeing or not foreseeing it?”
“All this is rely talk without actual change, so what significance does prophecy hold?”
According to Ian’s plan, the armor suits produced by Xiawei Territory need to provide dependable, strong firepower with “Heavy Armor Suits,” first ensuring the defense capability of key areas and fortress regions.
Currently, the Southern Ridge is the weaker party; Ian has no plans for active engagent until developnt progresses.
His plan is to continuously build towers in the mountain people and Bison Mountain ranges, expanding visibility and fortifying settlents into fortresses.
So even if Fiery Fla Land goes crazy and drops troops in Southern Ridge, the Prismatic Forts centered around native gathering places would be enough to annoy them for half a year.
Receiving Ian’s instructions and evaluations, Scott and Qingchao left quite happily.
Even when Ian isn’t present, they both perfectly complete their tasks, but they also know their handling could never match Ian’s.
Through Ian’s choices, they can learn Ian’s ways and thoughts in handling various affairs, becoming more proficient and reliable.
And in the conference room, with only Ian and Adalbert remaining, the Deceased Monarch Researcher spoke up.
Ian originally thought Adalbert, like Scott and Qingchao, intended to report recent work and ask Ian for so guidance in research direction, along with so funds…
But the result was unexpected.
“Ian.”
Sitting beside Ian, Adalbert thought for a while, then said cautiously: “The Grand Duke contacted .”
Ian’s eyebrows furrowed, and he cautiously said while looking at the Deceased Monarch: “When?”
The Grand Duke ntioned by Adalbert is naturally the forr Western Duke of The Empire, Splitt Solin, who beca Fifth Energy Level through the ‘Deceased Monarch’ thod, taking almost everyone from the Grand Duchy into Earth’s Core as the King of Hell.
Duke Solin was disappointed with The Empire and the entire Terra Human society due to the Dark Moon tumult and his ntor Inega II’s passing, hence making an extre decision to exile himself from Terra.
In theory, this Fifth Energy Level will stay in Earth’s Core indefinitely until his death.
Yet he has contacted his most accomplished subordinate, Adalbert, once more.
