s one.Use it again.I command, 【Fire Affinity】 possess!10, 9, 8......3, 2, 1......The flames were about to appear on the skin.Holy crap!Another spear!Can only evade.Looking at the two spears stuck in t...Having stayed in his desolate territory for thousands of years and fought a powerful enemy, he only managed to build one 【Yunmengze】.
There are no more resource cards in reserve.
This newly acquired territory, I just casually assembled a small rebel force, with a little trickery, the asteroid was mine.
The alliance's bounty is more than the entire South China Sea's war reserve.
First hide them in the deserted star zone, and when Xuanwumen is open, bring them all back to store!
Li Cheng was still appreciating the view when he suddenly received a notification.
(Because your deck's intelligent species has a higher intelligence value than the strategy card currently targeting you.)
【Capacity Lock】 (You will not see any options related to the "Ethereal Tribe" in any card draw actions. You cannot use this option to draw additional cards.)
Lu Cheng's eyebrows were tightly furrowed.
The Illusory race, despite their skill in mimicry, truly dominate the alliance's transportation capabilities due to their ability to open channels between high and low dimensions, as well as their understanding of trade rules.
Any time a League Cardmaster draws a card, the option of the Illusory race will appear.
Lu Cheng wasn't a member of the alliance before, but he appeared occasionally, probably like a black market dealer. He paid a certain fee each turn to draw extra cards.
But this isn't actually very useful!
If you could pay extra to draw cards each turn, that would be fine.
Because of its monopoly status, it can be domineering. Take the option of virtual black merchants appearing in Lu Cheng's case as an example.
If you use others' cards, they will disable your own cards from being used to draw. Once discovered, your cards will be invalidated and the payment will not be refunded...
Of course, within the alliance, it's impossible for the virtual clan to be so harsh. Generally, they allow a 73 split, meaning you have to use 70% of their channels for commission and 30% of your own.
If your homemade cards are too powerful, the Illusions will think you're competing with them and challenge you to a trade duel. They'll use every means necessary to take your share and leave you unable to recover forever.
Many indigenous races' self-developed technologies ended up stillborn.
Now that the Xu Ling clan has suddenly imposed a trade embargo on themselves, Lu Cheng analyzes that it is likely because the Xu Ling clan believes their luck has affected their status.......
His business acumen is still quite sharp.
But........
So what
The Xūlíng clan was originally on the little booklet, and each one had to pay a yearly tribute.
We do not intend to engage in large-scale hot wars first, but fierce competition is inevitable, whether sooner or later.
If you're the one making the first move, then go ahead.
......
The first time on the dragon boat journey, I encountered a little monster.
The second round is a trade showdown.
The goal is to, through hand cards, break the Illusory Tribe's monopoly on fortune-telling power and secure a share within the alliance.
Even if the Illusory Spirit Race didn't show up, Lu Cheng would have to do this anyway.
Because, in fact, Lu Cheng's deck is not currently running smoothly.
During wartime, nearly half of Jade City's population was relocated to Qingqiu and Penglai.
The rest of the population is located in [Yunmengze], which allows for card production resource output.
During non-warring periods, a large number of people are inevitably idle.
When [Yundangze] is full, Lu Cheng cannot provide enough jobs.
Therefore, the newly established 【Southern Province】 after the war housed a portion of them and launched the cultural entity 【Tai Bai】, cultivating a large number of "literati."
The card economy is booming.
Later, as a large number of humans returned to the Tang Dynasty, the population increased again.
And at one time, [錦衣玉食] , the human race upgraded. Lu Cheng didn't have that many high-star work card options available.
A staggering 40 million high-star population units are in a state of idleness.
They consume a lot of resources every turn and have nowhere to work.
It is known that the boundary world has an extremely low discovery rate of resource stars.
Each round even requires importing large quantities of water from the whale clan to sustain life.
How long can Lu Cheng hold on as the situation deteriorates
To be completely honest, it's not entirely absent.
Literati, artists and craftsmen built the Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains.
It is estimated that by the middle of the Song Dynasty, the "Thousand Miles River and Mountains" painting could be completed.
Its workforce could fully load either the "Penglai" or "Qingqiu", upgrading one of them into a mythical naval base.
Then, assembling a Yunxiao Immortal Boat in one go will no longer be a dream.
But here's the catch...
One is the throughput of red one star per round, there aren't that many industrial raw materials.
During non-war periods, the production capacity of Jin 10 Star Industrial Card is idle. Where is the production capacity of Mythological Military Harbor released to
Orders from the Sand Domain and the Whale Clan are essentially meaningless to the Mythical Naval Base.
DIY your army
During peacetime, standing armies have their limits. If they are expanded beyond these limits, the consequences can be disastrous, leading to overstretched military resources and an inability to effectively respond to threats.
It's too much to handle, I can't afford it. This is a big problem.
If production capacity is idle, products cannot be exported, and a huge amount is consumed each round.
Therefore, it is imperative to open a breakthrough in the central world as soon as possible. This is the basic policy of Lu Cheng's next stage of playing cards.
The strategy of the virtual tribe is actually unrelated.
You do your thing, I'll do mine...
However, Lu Cheng thought it over carefully.
I'm afraid we can't compete for the central world in too ostentatious a way.
The reason is very simple.
Lu Cheng couldn't possibly know that he was militarily undervalued by the Xu Ling Clan: as insignificant.
And this review was submitted to the alliance.
After all, he's already shown off his muscles.
Displaying sufficient military strength is to tell the petty villains not to have any ideas about me.
Economically speaking, it's different. To keep others from eyeing you, the key is to hide your wealth.
A gentleman keeps his weapons hidden, and his wealth is not displayed.
I'll tell you how awesome I am, but I won't tell you how much money I make.
……
The triangular area, as a temporary reserve warehouse and resting place for dragon boats, is quite convenient.
Lu Cheng has a century-long wormhole lease agreement with the natural insect swarm.
The zerg have a wormhole at the edge of the Triangle District, leading straight to the vicinity of Xuanwu Gate. The transportation channel is open and unobstructed.
Lu Cheng decided to secretly strike the Xu Ling clan first, taking down their share of territory within Yan Guo and stabilizing the areas around the Triangle Zone.
Iwaki.
A typical ageless nation.
Led by a single Emperor granite, it occupies the extreme southern border of the alliance.
Typically, the intellect-challenged Rock clan members in card games exist as table decorations rather than players...
After all, classics say so: a table of mahjong, some forces are the players, some are the spectators, some can only be the cards...some, even just a granite tabletop.
Their racial traits are such that any strategy cards take effect unconditionally.
As for why it wasn't fully subjugated
The reason lies in the limitations of current technology. The mainstream travel techniques of the central world's races are still far from being able to fully project their strength to the extreme southern border.
Only the Illusory Race with advanced transportation capabilities can set up here, and swallowing the Rock Nation is also a foregone conclusion.
Upon arriving in Iwakuni, Riku Cheng was deeply impressed by the active rock mine.
Humans are not good at mining.
Either by using tools or by relying on the mythical creatures of ancient lore.
And the efficiency of active rock mines was three times higher than that of Song Dynasty machinery mines.
It's probably five times the size of a desert!
Their basic units possess extremely high mining skills.
If we were to make Iwashiro our mining partner and find a source for raw materials, even the mythical future naval base could potentially be built!ordinary. In this era, the Mohist school was one of the prominent schools of thought, and their skills in stealth were well-known. Given his ability to remain hidden, it wouldn't be difficult for him...
