Chapter 2096: War is Too Expensive

Her nonchalant look made Zhang Yi raise his eyebrows again.

It still looks familiar.

Zhang Yi even wondered if there was still a part of her soul that had not returned to the ether?

Of course, this is impossible.

Zhang Yi told Lu Keran that the first thing to solve was the problem of Ling's energy supply, and to repair the combat-type mechanical life forms on a large scale.

An anxious look immediately appeared on Lu Keren's face.

"Brother Zhang Yi, this... I really can't do this!"

"If we want to attack the Wuluan Empire, we must have large mechanical life forms. For example, super-large mechanical life forms can cause destructive power comparable to that of a tank-class Ipsilon ability user."

"But relatively speaking, they consume a huge amount of energy. Even if we use up everything we have, we can only form two legions of mechanical life forms with a strength of 10,000 units."

"But it's not enough to give all this energy to Ling!"

At this moment, Zhang Yi finally understood one thing.

What is the ultimate cause of large-scale wars? Money.

To be precise, it is resources.

Manpower, weapons, and support are all difficult to resolve.

Zhang Yi closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then said to Lu Keran, "You try your best to do it first! I will solve the energy problem."

Lu Ke Ran nodded helplessly: "Okay then!"

The look in her eyes when she looked at Zhang Yi was actually somewhat sympathetic.

Because everyone knows that the resources required for this kind of war at the level of hunting a country are incalculable.

If Zhang Yi wants to launch a war to destroy a country, he must integrate the forces of all parties.

Zhang Yi thought about it, then reached out and handed Lu Keren the ten sun fruits given to him by King Jin of the Deep Blue Kingdom.

"You should keep my brother's assets for now."

Ling saw this and nodded, commenting, "The mission standard completion rate is 1%."

Zhang Yi almost fell flat on his face.

"I……"

He looked at Ling helplessly, pointed at her, then at himself, and then at her again. Finally, without saying a word, he fled from the studio.

After returning to the top floor, Zhang Yi rubbed his head, and said to Yang Xinxin with a relaxed smile: "There is hope!"

After listening to this, Yang Xinxin took a sip of coffee and smiled, "It's still a difficult task."

"It's better than seeing no hope at all."

Zhang Yi spread his hands.

He crossed his hands under his chin and calmly began to think about his next strategy.

"In the short term, the Wuluan Empire will not dare to land. They are extremely wary of the Qinling Dragon Clan."

"At worst, we won't go to the coast. No matter how big the storm is, it won't reach Blizzard City."

"They can't make too much noise, otherwise they might disturb the dragon clan."

Yang Xinxin said, "But we must consider a possibility. They will continue to test the bottom line of the dragon clan. Previously, they flooded dozens of cities along the southeast coast. Next time, they may invade deeper areas."

"Once they discover us, the Dragon Clan won't care much about Huaxu Country. By then, the real war may not be initiated by us."

Zhang Yi nodded. "You're right. This is what I'm most worried about. We can't wait for others to make the first move. We have to strike first."

"As for energy, I can make the decision for the Jiangnan Region. The Deng family's experiment has provided us with an idea, and it can also meet some of Ling's needs."

"And what I have to do next is to integrate all the forces of the six major regions of the entire Huaxu Kingdom! Fight them to the death!"

Zhang Yi's eyes became increasingly fierce.

"Not only do we need them to provide weapons, but we also need them to dispatch high-level aliens."

"The enemy has about 20 Ipsilons. We must ensure that we have at least 30 Ipsilon-level fighters to have an overwhelming advantage."

Yang Xinxin said: "This is very difficult. Even if the second mutation wave comes, the number of Ipsilons in each region is extremely limited. Not every region is as courageous as us to venture to places where underground civilizations are present."

Zhang Yi frowned: "We need to talk about this."

Yang Xinxin raised her head and asked, "Can we seek external help?"

Zhang Yi took a deep breath and then exhaled.

"I have thought of this method, but right now, there are still conflicts between me and the Nordic countries and the Junzheng Church. Firstly, it is difficult for me to trust them, and secondly, they are probably waiting to see me make a fool of myself."

"Forget about Saladin. His area is too awkward. It is close to Baitigang and Northern Europe, and he dare not leave his territory easily."

"As for Columbia..." Zhang Yi shook his head. "If I ask now, given their tempers, they will probably ask me to share the right to use Ling!"

Zhang Yi rubbed his hair.

Fighting a war is indeed not as simple as fighting alone.

Just when Zhang Yi was worrying about how to gather the army and resources, the communication equipment suddenly rang.

Zhang Yi's thoughts were interrupted and he was still wondering who was looking for him.

But when I opened the communication interface, I saw a very familiar name.

【Supernova】Brian Griffin.

"Well, why is this guy looking for me now? Is he here to comfort me? Or is he a representative of Columbia and wants to negotiate with me about the right to use Ling?"

Zhang Yi rubbed his chin, but still answered the video call.

As soon as the video was opened, a dog face with a simple yet confused look appeared in front of Zhang Yi.

Brian had a confused look on his face, and he seemed quite surprised by the call.

"Um... Blaine?"

"Hmm... Chaos."

"What do you want to talk to me about now? To be honest, I've been very busy recently. As you know, there was a big flood and my house was flooded. Now I'm busy hanging out quilts every day because I have too many quilts at home."

Zhang Yi held his face with one hand and said lazily.

Brian said, "Usually I sleep in the doghouse, but it doesn't matter."

Its big face was close to the camera, and it tried to force a smile: "Hi, bro. I heard there was a tsunami in your area recently? I was wondering if the seafood price has dropped? Haha."

Zhang Yi said, "Come on, it's free."

"Well, let's get down to business. I know you're being attacked by lizardmen. If you have any trouble, I can come and help."

Zhang Yi felt even more confused.

Brian wants to help himself?

After thinking for a while, he said to Brian, "You should know that I fought with Pluto from your Natural Science Association not long ago, right?"
