Green and the others were puzzled as they looked at the excited face of Zhao Hai. They didn't know what Zhao Hai meant. They only knew about some of the normal abilities of the space, but they didn't know about the several big tricks of the space, such as the release of insects, weeds, and mosquitoes.
Zhao Hai had almost forgotten about these abilities, because he didn't want to use them at all. When these functions were designed in the game, Zhao Hai rarely used them, he just thought of them as fun.
Since arriving at the Ark Continent, Zhao Hai had wholeheartedly thought about developing his own territory. He didn't have the mood to release insects, so he didn't pay attention to these functions.
Just now, Meg had said that if he wanted to cause trouble for the Purcell clan, it would have to be a natural disaster. This made Zhao Hai think of the function of releasing insects in the space.
For a country's agricultural production, insect plagues could be regarded as a natural disaster. Moreover, it was a very powerful natural disaster. The most famous one was the locusts. People generally described it as "locusts passing through the border". A place was completely destroyed, which showed how terrible this insect plagues were.
The insects released by Zhao Hai weren't locusts, but the big meat worms in the game. These insects were very serious when it came to crops that hadn't yet grown up.
Zhao Hai wanted to release these insects and let them destroy the crops in the Ica plains. As long as the crops there were destroyed, the Purcell clan wouldn't have nothing to do.
Moreover, they used the method of releasing insects. It looked like a plague of insects. No one would think that this was actually caused by humans.
Zhao Hai looked at Green and the others. He knew that they didn't understand what he meant. He smiled and said, "Grandpa Green, Grandma Merlin, you have a certain understanding of the space, but you still don't know that the space has several functions. I thought that these functions were useless, so I didn't tell you. Hehe, now it seems that these functions are really useful."
Green looked at Zhao Hai puzzledly and said, "What functions? Young Master, does it have anything to do with the insect plague you mentioned? "
There are a total of three functions that we can use right now. One is the pest release function, the second is the weed release function, and the third is the mosquito release function. The pest release function is very simple, it just releases pests into the crop field. These pests are very destructive to the crops. The weed release function is similar, it just releases weeds into the field. These weeds will compete with the crops for nutrients, reducing the yield of the crops. The mosquito release function is not yet used, but this function is to release a large number of mosquitoes. "Zhao smiled faintly and said," Yes, it's very important. There are three functions that we can use right now.
There were mosquitoes in the Ark Continent, and they were really annoying. They were everywhere, and their name was the same as on Earth. Therefore, when Zhao Hai said that they were mosquitoes, Green and the others understood what they were.
As soon as Green and the others heard Zhao Hai, they understood what Zhao Hai meant. Their eyes lit up, Green said, "Young Master, is what you said true? You mean, the Space can release insects to eat up the crops? "
Zhao Hai nodded and smiled, "Yes, it can. And unlike the land improvement, where there are some restrictions every day, there are no restrictions on the release of insects."
As soon as Green heard Zhao Hai, he happily stood up and said, "Good, very good, as long as we have this ability, we can immediately start. Right, Young Master, we should go back to Stony Mountain and then go to the Ica Plains. After we release the insects, we'll go to the Purcell clan to break off the engagement."
Zhao Hai nodded, "We don't need to worry about this matter. The Black Wasteland isn't close to Montenegro Fortress. These people have just entered the Black Wasteland, so even if they heard the news, it would still take some time for them to return. We still have enough time."
Green also calmed down at this time, nodded and said: "Yes, we still have enough time. From the Black Waste to Montenegro, it will take some time. From Casa City to Ica Plain, it won't take that long. But after we return to Stony Mountain, we still have to arrange things there. I think this time we shouldn't send too many people, too many people will be troublesome. What do you think, Young Master?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "This time, we can't send too many people. I think only the two of us should go. Let Zhao Jia and the others be on standby in the space. So even if something happens, we can deal with it."
Green nodded. Most of their forces had been taken by Drunk to the Carrion Swamp. The remaining forces were left behind to guard the Black Waste and the Stony Mountain. They couldn't be rashly mobilized. Therefore, they could only rely on Gary and the others to follow his orders.
Merine didn't oppose. In any case, Zhao Hai had the space, so they weren't afraid of an accident. If something happened, as long as he hid in the space, he could return to Stony Mountain or Fort Iron Mountain.
Although the space had three fixed transmission points, and Zhao Hai only used two, he still had three transmission points. Two were fixed, and one was not fixed. Wherever Zhao Hai went, that would be the transmission point.
But now, Stony Mountain really couldn't be left alone. Not only did they have to cooperate with Laura, but there might also be other troubles, so there must be someone to guard there.
After discussing the details of the operation, Zhao Hai returned to Stony Mountain. They were ready to wait for the second convoy sent by Laura to arrive, and then they would go to the Ica Plains. Anyway, they had enough time.
Two days later, the second convoy arranged by Laura arrived. Their vehicles were loaded with a lot of wooden barrels and some tools for oil extraction. They were very well prepared.
However, there were fewer barrels. Each barrel could only hold two hundred jin of oil. This time, Laura gave them two hundred barrels. In other words, they could hold twenty thousand jin of oil, which Zhao Hai and the others could squeeze out in five days.
Zhao also told the people in his team to pass on a message to Laura. First, he wanted her to help him collect more barrels. Second, he wanted her to go out for a while, and it might be a while before he comes back. But if there is anything, she can still come to Stony Mountain to find him.
The captain of the convoy was still Shawn. Now that Shawn had a lot of power, he was very polite to Zhao Hai. He was very careful and didn't dare to neglect.
Shawn was very clear about Zhao Hai's position in Laura's heart. He had always been Laura's confidant, so he naturally understood what Laura was thinking. Zhao Hai could be said to be a powerful backer of Laura, so Shawn didn't dare to be disrespectful.
After sending Shawn away, Zhao Hai and Green set off. Like before, Green took the Ghost Cane and sneaked out of Stony Mountain. Then the two of them went straight to the Ica Plains. This time, they went at night and went to the space to rest during the day.
The area of the Ark Continent was too big. Although there were a lot of people, there was very little damage done to nature. Moreover, it wasn't as developed as Earth. At night, people would go to sleep, so they wouldn't be able to find out that there were people out and about. Because of this, Zhao and the others wouldn't be discovered.
From Casa City to the Ica Plains, it didn't take a long time. After all, the Ica Plains was the main source of food for the Purcell clan. The Purcell clan attached great importance to it, so it was impossible to go too far. If something happened in the Ica Plains, they wouldn't have time to rescue.
In the Purcell Duchy, the Purcell clan was the first to establish the Purcell clan, and then Casa City. Casa City was built by the Purcell clan because it was convenient for transportation. Not only were the roads accessible in all directions, but the most important thing was that the city was not far from the Aksu Empire's largest river, the Jade Belt River, so water transportation was very convenient.
When Casa City was first chosen, it wasn't far from the Ica Plains. The Ica Plains was the place where the Purcell clan started, and there was also the Purcell clan's old castle.
The reason why the Purcell clan gave up the Ica Plains and decided to build a city in the current location of Casa City was because Casa City was very convenient. The second reason was because the Ica Plains didn't have any danger to defend. The Ica Plains was just like its name, a plain area. At a glance, one could see things dozens of miles away. The terrain was completely flat, so even if a city was built, its defensive capabilities would be very limited.
Although the core of the Purcell clan had been placed in Casa City, they still attached great importance to the Ica Plains. The Purcell clan was very clear about the importance of the Ica Plains to their clan. The food produced here was their foundation.
Once a clan truly established a Duchy, they would immediately understand the importance of food for a clan and a country. If your economy was developing well, without enough food, you would always have to rely on others.
Food was the most important thing for the people. Although there was no such thing in the Ark Continent, those in the upper echelons knew that food was the foundation. Once the foundation was lost, the country would be in chaos.
It was precisely because of this reason that the Purcell clan had used countless means over the years. From the hands of the small nobles and commoners, the Ica Plains didn't belong to their clan. In the end, the entire Ica Plains belonged to the Purcell clan.
With Yi Ka as their grain-producing land, the Purcell clan became more confident. Now that the Purcell clan was among the old clans, they could be considered as having strength. They had grain, so they could raise more soldiers. With soldiers, they would be able to speak more confidently.
Knowing that this place was very important to the Purcell clan, the Purcell clan had 5000 elite soldiers stationed in the Ica plains all year round. These 5000 elite soldiers were the most elite of the Purcell clan, the Benniu Guards. Even if they were placed in the entire Aklao Empire, they would still be considered as elite soldiers. Just raising these soldiers required an astronomical amount of money every day.
