Chapter 791 -555: The Clash Begins at This Moment!_3
There isn’t much problem with opening a market on minor matters.
But with such major issues, what if Green Grass City loses and takes it out on us?
Fortunately, the real showdown is about to begin, and he can finally relax — after all, winning or losing is beyond his control, he can only watch and wait.
…
At 9 o’clock in the morning, small floating spaceships steadily flew out from the Floating Fortress.
These floating spaceships were about 20 meters long, with a height and width of around 5 meters, each ship carrying five hundred soldiers in power armor!
On the spaceship at the forefront, it carried an imposing Flame Beast, the Dwarf Clan’s council president, Stormbrew, and a large group of Strangers.
“The day has finally come, under the watchful eyes of many, we must achieve a brilliant victory! Are you confident?”
“Yes!”
This gambling contest is practically a comprehensive test of all-around strength.
Before both parties officially meet, they also have no certainty in their hearts.
50 kilometers away, it takes less than half an hour to arrive.
At an altitude of 20,000 meters, the dwarves saw a city that was not too large, occupying an area of about 200 square kilometers.
Its structure is quite exquisite, pyramid-shaped, divided into upper, middle, and lower layers.
The engravings on the walls shimmered with an ancient glow, and the emerald green strange plants left a deep impression on them—Green Grass City, indeed the city lives up to its name, entirely made up of plants!
To achieve a greenhouse in an icy environment, one needs to consume a massive amount of energy.
And energy is a scarce and precious commodity in the Northern Territory.
The sheer density of plants alone proves the prosperity and strength of Green Grass City.
“They must have invented Controlled Nuclear Fusion technology… to provide such massive greenhouses.” A technocrat sighed lightly, “Solar energy alone is completely insufficient.”
“Eternal Energy?” An old Stranger recalled the term from his memory.
“Yes, only a technological civilization that follows a purely materialistic path can develop this great technology.”
“Can we purchase an Eternal Energy device?”
“Uh… depends on whether they want to sell it.”
“If it’s just maintenance, I think our population is enough, but trying to replicate one is almost impossible… even knowing the principles makes it difficult.” The technocrat shook his head.
As the Northern Territory’s great clan, the dwarf population is nearly thirty million, enough to gather plenty of scientific talent.
However, to replicate a “nuclear fusion device,” one needs a sufficiently strong industrial chain.
Starting from scratch to build a materialism-based industrial chain is practically unrealistic.
Their docking location is not Green Grass City but rather the plaza near the Trading Market.
The Trading Market occupies about 60 square kilometers, considered a decent small city, with high-rise buildings lined closely together, and silver solar panels spread across the topmost edges of these buildings, where at least 300,000 creatures from various races are gathered.
“In just three years, the scale has already surpassed our market…” Council President Stormbrew thought sourly.
The emergence of this phenomenon is not just because of the favorable conditions offered by Green Grass City, but also due to good city public security.
Moreover, an important reason is that cheap industrial goods bring a comfortable life!
Who could refuse living in a spacious and warm house—even the notorious goblin clan behaves here like model citizens abiding by the rules.
No way, committing a crime results in permanent expulsion! Never able to return.
“Humans do this to promote their Sky City.”
“Once various races get accustomed to living in such comfortable houses, they would be willing to spend ‘Civilization Points’ to buy a city of their own.”
“Hmph, they certainly play a good strategic card.”
Could not help but feel a bit sour inside.
However, the dwarf civilization cannot imitate this; they veer towards a mind-oriented path and lack the production capacity!
At the eastern-most airport, the signal lights flickered as the air control command signaled them to dock at the eastern airport.
Many drones in the vicinity made various indications.
“Let’s dock.” the council president commanded.
On the railway connecting Ulan City, trains were coming and going, transporting large numbers of races—even a special carriage for the large-bodied One-eyed Clan.
“Wow!” the rough guy shouted.
All the races were thrilled, eagerly anticipating the stories of this day.
Thus, as the spaceship touched down, the council president softly dusted off his clothes, walked out the door with a nervous heart.
In sight was a large group of wise beings adorned in black power armor, among them Lanpeng people and ratmen.
The Human 18th Civilization is a multi-racial alliance civilization; they have long discovered this.
Furthermore, a Green Grass Empress is the city’s nominal ruler, also an Ancient Era legacy Stranger—the dwarf civilization’s intelligence department has gathered data for many years, understanding this detail.
The existence of the Green Grass Empress also explains why the Human 18th Civilization is so powerful.
Civilizations benefiting from former dynasty’s advantages include more than just the dwarf clan.
“We must exert all our efforts to possibly overcome the humans! We must be cautious!” the council president, Stormbrew, thought solemnly.
