Chapter 338: New king succeeds the throne

“The Source Energy Cannons a hundreds of times stronger, but the energy consumption is also hundreds of times more.Not only does it require a high density battery, it also requires the Source Energy Cannon’s body to be several times sturdier compared to before.With our battery and refining technology and the items we have on hand, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to meet the standard.”

Chu Tian didn’t care about Yun Tianhe’s questions.

“No need to worry, I have already thought of a high density crystal oil refining method in Imperial City.The battery factory and weapon factory can barely conform to the standard. As for the material, when we evacuated Imperial City, we took several hundred years worth of metals from the royal treasury.It will be enough to withstand the power of the Source Energy Cannons.”

Chu Tian proposed another heavy firearm design.

This firearm was made with very rare metals and could shoot for a long time at high speeds.This added together created super strong bullets, super fast shooting, and long term firing of bullets.

Whether it was the Source Energy Cannon or the heavy Source Energy Gun, they were all super powerful weapons, so they required a high level of technology and materials.Chu Tian had to personally help with the research to ensure they could make it before the War Hounds arrived. The Yun Sect already had a strong research power, but now combining the Imperial City Yun Sect and the Central State Yun Sect, this was increased by several times.

Several hundred scholars worked day and night, with dozens of facilities operating at the same time, involving the several thousand members of the Yun Sect.After large amounts of experimenting and calculating, they had results in just a few days.

Several Miracle Commerce airships travelled between Central State City and South Sky City, transporting large amounts of crystal oil.Miracle Commerce’s five main warehouses were filled with crystal oil. After there were enough materials, the several dozen factories began to turn.There were over ten thousand workers and over a thousand symbol masters that began their work.

Meng Qingwu personally supervised the factories.There were several hundred fist sized things that were made, perfectly shaped like some kind of fruit with runes carved over the surface.There was highly compressed crystal oil inside of it with a red button at the top. If this button was pressed, the Source Energy Battery within would activate, letting the compressed crystal oil inside return to an explosive state.

This was the Source Energy Grenade.

The structure was not complex and was quite simple.Because each soldier could carry one or two of them onto the battlefield, it would have a terrifying effect on the battlefield.Even if it landed on an Awakened Soul Cultivator’s body, they might die without leaving a trace.

In the Source Energy Weapon warehouse, there were an entire fifty thousand Source Energy Guns and over five thousand Source Energy Submachine Guns.This far exceeded the Imperial City’s storage and was enough to make up for the lack of strength from the Central State army.

Not bad.

When Meng Qingwu saw the neat line of weapons, her heart was filled with confidence.It was at this time that the Giant Shark Gang brought great news to Meng Qingwu.

“After the Fang King took over Imperial City, he wanted to immediately attack the Calm Martial Ruler, but he was instead ambushed by the Calm Martial Ruler at the three big northern ports.All the ships have been captured and those that haven’t have been burned down with the ports. The Calm Martial Ruler is now leading close to three hundred thousand cavalry to meet us in the south!”

The Central State’s garrison was too weak, the Calm Martial Ruler had come right on time!

The Calm Martial Ruler had the highest position of the Three Rulers and was someone that had supported the Southern Summer territory by himself.Not to mention bringing elites to Central State, the Calm Martial Ruler had also stolen all the boats and burned down all the ports. This would no doubt delay the War Hounds Kingdom, buying more time for Chu Tian in Central State.

“Immediately prepare to welcome them.”

Meng Qingwu led a group of Miracle Commerce staff to the Central State port to clear out most of it and prepare a temporary military camp.Two days later, several hundred warships appeared on the horizon. The Calm Martial Ruler coming to Central State this time had brought a total of two hundred and eighty thousand elites, most of them being the Azure Storm Cavalry, the main force of the Southern Summer army!

The four hundred thousand cavalry were the most important combat force in the Southern Summer Country, half in Imperial City and half in Cang State.If during the fight, these cavalry had been present, it was unknown if the Fang King could have taken Imperial City or not. Now that this army had arrived in Central State, it would be a great help to defending Central State!

The Imperial Region falling should have been a large blow to the Calm Martial Ruler.

But the Calm Martial Ruler did not seem angry or breathless, he just seemed strangely calm.It was probably as the Southern Summer commander in chief, he was very good at hiding his emotions.

The Calm Martial Ruler rebuked himself over the Southern Summer disaster.He had not seen the true goal of the War Hounds invasion of Cang State. The War Hounds’ army had entered Cang State pretending to attack Cang State City and seeming like they were really aiming to attack the breeding farms, but those were all fake.The real goal was just to draw the Southern Summer’s cavalry unit away, letting them lose their use, so the Fang King could lead his personal army into Southern Summer.

This actually was not the Calm Martial Ruler’s fault.

The Southern Summer Country’s information had clearly been delayed, not knowing that the War Hound Plains had been unified and that a Spirit Beast Warring Kingdom was supporting the War Hounds Kingdom.The new Fang King was clearly a veteran general, having studied the Southern Summer army’s main characters. In this situation where he was lacking in information, the Calm Martial Ruler could do nothing since he was not a prophet.

“The previous king has given his order!”Gu Qianqiu respectfully came forward with a bow and said, “He asks the Calm Martial Ruler, Dongfang Gan to take the position of the Southern Summer King!”

The surrounding officers all knelt down.Whether it was the Calm Martial Ruler’s prestige, fame, or background, they were all suited for this position!

The Southern Summer Country was a shaky group without a leader, they needed someone to take charge and give orders!

Who knew that the Calm Martial Ruler would coldly say, “How can a general be the Southern Summer King?This ruler cannot accept the throne, it would be proper for Dongfang Haoran to inherit the throne!”
