Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Chapter 133: Generosity brings big rewards

[With the flash of electric light, several corpses emerged from the exploding machine. The corpse had obvious features, including eight claws and huge eyes. 】

[The captain shouted: Oh my God, it’s a whale and an octopus! Goddess of Glory, should we help the octopus and whale people fight against each other? 】

[I know that the purpose of our trip is to seek help from the octopus man. That altar leads to the octopus man's territory. However, looking at the huge, bloated but extremely flexible whale man, I understood the captain's dilemma: we can't defeat the whale man. 】

[An octopus man drives an underwater machine, fires at the whale man, and emits a beam of blue light. 】

[A whaleman was hit, and a huge hole instantly appeared in his body. 】

[Fortunately, the winner was soon determined. The octopus man gained the upper hand and drove the whale man away. 】

[An underwater ship approached our ship, the lid on it was opened, and an octopus man stuck his head out: Humans, you shouldn't be here. 】

[I quickly said: We don’t mean to offend, but humans have always been friendly with the octopus people in the angry sea. This time humans are in disaster, we are here to ask for help. 】

[The octopus man said: Human beings, I can’t make the decision on this matter, you just follow me. 】

[Underwater machines maintain navigation on the sea surface and lead our sailing ships to their altars. 】

[The altar is more than ten meters above the sea. God knows how they erected such a high altar in the sea. On the altar, there is a big bell. 】

[I asked the octopus man: Do I need to tap it? 】

[The octopus man smiled: You have already met us, so of course you don’t need to knock on the door. Wait a minute, I'll go find our leader. 】

[We waited for a moment, and an unusually tall octopus man appeared. He was the leader of the octopus men. 】

[The leader of the octopus men asked me: Explorer, you will be disappointed this time. Our octopus tribe and the whale tribe are at war, and we may not be able to support humans! You have also seen how belligerent those big guys are. The war has been going on for many years and they will not stop. 】

【I feel desperate...】

Zhao Chuanxin quickly started thinking.

If two countries on earth are at war, how should he solve this problem?

After thinking for a while, Zhao Chuanxin said: "If both sides stop fighting, can the octopus people help humans once?"

[The octopus man is surprised: But how do you make the whale man stop? They have been coveting our azure crystal mine for a long time! 】

[I bit the bullet and said: Why don’t you let me go find the whale man and give it a try? 】

[The octopus man was silent for a while and then said: Explorer, I admire your courage and indomitable spirit. You come aboard with me, and I'll send someone to take you to the whalemen's outpost to find their leader. 】

[I boarded the Octopus Man's ship and couldn't help but marvel at their technology. The instruments I put on were all incomprehensible to me. 】

[Arrived at the whaleman outpost, the octopusman sent a signal to explain his intention. 】

[A group of whalemen led the ship into the outpost fortress in the sea. 】

[In the dark seabed, there is a brightly lit place, which opened my eyes. 】

[When the water drained, I exited the cabin and entered the whaleman outpost. 】

[The buildings here are gorgeous, neat, and more solid and beautiful than human buildings. There is no water here, I can breathe. 】

[The leader of the whalemen met with me and said: Explorer, if you want to persuade me to cease the war, then you should go back. That blue crystal mine belonged to us whale people two thousand years ago. Despicable octopus men cheated the crystal mines away from my ancestors. 】

[The octopus man who came with me said angrily: That’s nonsense. Two thousand years ago, we octopus people spent money to buy your azure crystal mine, and we still keep that agreement. You can see it anytime you want. 】

[The huge teeth of the Whale Man made me a little scared. I just heard him sneer and say: I admit that the Whale Man was still in a period of ignorance two thousand years ago, so he foolishly signed a contract with you. And your technology at that time was far superior to ours. Even then, we still needed to go to the sea to breathe from time to time, and we didn't dare not sign. Therefore, you used unfair means to plunder it from us. 】

[I don’t know what to say anymore. Both sides have reasons to protect their own interests, but there is only one azure crystal mine. I have to ask: Is there only one blue crystal mine like Nuhai? 】

[The whale man said: Maybe there are more, but the time to explore new mines is enough for us to take it back from the despicable octopus man. Besides, other azure crystal mines are occupied by other sea tribes, and we just want to get back what belongs to us! 】

For a while, Zhao Chuanxian didn't have any good ideas.

But he still asked tentatively: "Is there no other way but to engage in war?"

[The octopus man interjected: We have given suggestions and can trade with them. They have metal mines in their hands. Our development requires a lot of metal, but these barbaric whalemen refuse to do so. 】

[The whale man said angrily: Our alloy drill bit broke a few years ago, and now it is no longer possible to mine metal ore. We cannot obtain human high-strength metals! 】

[The octopus man sneered: Your metal drill is broken, so that’s the reason to start a war with us? 】

Upon hearing the sound of high-strength metal, Zhao Chuanxin suddenly felt something in his heart.

But there was some hesitation.

Somewhat reluctant!

Seeing that the octopus and whale man were still spraying each other, he gritted his teeth and said, "I have some high-strength metal. I wonder if it will be of use to you?"

After saying that, Zhao Chuanxian immediately regretted it.

Naturally, he wanted to take out his spider legs.

But the spider leg is not only a handy weapon, it can also be an energy source that provides energy to the ghost armor.

Hand over the spider legs and he may lose two pieces of equipment!

There is no substantial reward for this trip, and losing two pieces of equipment is not worth it.

But then he thought, if human civilization was destroyed, it would not be a good thing for him.

[I said to the whaleman: This is made of high-strength metals such as Gemini metal and the plateau metal of the bear tribe. If it is made into an alloy, it may be helpful to you...]

[After carefully studying the spider legs, the whale man said in surprise: Explorer, this is a treasure. Not only are there various high-strength metals, there is even a piece of devil crystal inside. The perceptual properties of Devil's Crystal are of great use to our drilling work! 】

Not to mention it was okay, but when I mentioned Zhao Chuanxian, my heart ached!

[The whaleman asked: Explorer, are you sure you want to donate this treasure to our whalemen? 】

Zhao Chuanxin still agreed.

This is the largest investment he has made in the diary world.

[The whale man said to me sincerely: Explorer, the whale man never treats his friends badly. In this case, I will make a truce with the octopus man! I heard that you humans are encountering an unprecedented disaster. I think the whale tribe can also help. By the way, in order to make up for your personal loss, I will give you another piece of blue armor from our whalemen! 】

[The octopus man was extremely surprised to see that I had actually succeeded in getting the whale man to agree to a truce, and said: Explorer, you are a generous and capable man. Since the whale people are willing to donate generously, the wealthy octopus tribe will not be stingy either. The whaleman's azure armor has the word azure in its name, but it lacks the core energy source - azure crystal! I am willing to give you a reactor made of azure crystal for you to install on the azure armor. Although Azure Crystal does not have the perceptual properties and display properties of Devil's Crystal, its energy storage is more than a hundred times that of Devil's Crystal! 】
