Chapter 267: The Real Secret

In the New World, there are many islands that are considered extremely dangerous, and Thor Island is one of them.

Due to the special climatic conditions, this island has been in thunderstorms all year round. Black clouds in the sky have been shrouded in the sky above the island, and violent purple thunder and lightning are smashing into the land of the island every moment. , The entire Thunder Island is a cage of thunder and lightning, and it is impossible to find a landing point.

Perhaps because of the perennial lightning strikes, a stone that can store the power of thunder and lightning has been produced on this island. This is the original mine of thunderstone.

But Thor Island is not suitable for people to live in. It is naturally impossible to mine raw ore. Varudo also discovered this gem island by accident. After research, he discovered that this island seemed to be part of Thor Island before. It split from Thunder Island only two or three hundred years ago. Under the shallow ground veins of this island, there are naturally some mines of thunderstone.

When the world government and the navy closed the research institute and nearly killed Varudo, this matter has always made him worry, so after occupying the island and starting to mine Thunderstone, Varudo studied the purpose of Thunderstone. , I just want to use Thunder Stone to make a powerful weapon, and then retaliate against the world government and navy.

As the saying goes, this man is born from the heart, Varudo is actually very sinister. Although he has the idea of ​​revenge in his heart, he is able to cooperate with the world government on the surface, by providing them with some thunderstones in exchange for what he needs. Research funding for the country, after all, scientific research is quite expensive.

The world government and navy, I am afraid they would not even dream of it. The real purpose of Varudo's cooperation with them is actually to bite them...

Since research requires a lot of money, Varudo naturally cannot have too much money to invest in the army. He can only squeeze the miners on the island to force them to provide himself with a steady stream of raw materials. His mind is fundamental. It was not put in consideration for the country and the people, so over time, the unbearable citizens began to resist him.

In this world, there are indeed very few pirates who can be good kings, and after discovering that the momentum is not right, Varudo's first thought was not to appease the people, but to suppress them.

He took out a portion of the money and hired more than 3,000 pirates. He didn’t care what they did. He only told them to suppress the wave of resistance. So the pirates who took the chicken feathers as the arrow adopted their own The best way.

This is the scene of the massacre that Ian and the others saw after landing on this island.

And now, due to an inexplicable appearance of Qiwuhai, all the pirates hired by Varudo ran away. Varudo does not have enough manpower available. When the next insurgent counterattack comes, he is likely to After being driven off the throne of the king, the rebel army will occupy his palace, and all research will be burned.

The thought of the possibility of recurring the scene of the bombing of the institute, Varudo couldn't tolerate it. He didn't want to repeat the painful experience at the time.

"Habs! Habs!" Varudo called out the names of his confidants.

Habs quickly appeared, ran to Varudo, and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, what's your order?"

"Contact the Qiwuhai named Ian and say that he hopes he can protect my king!" Varudo said: "The price is whatever he wants, but the premise is that he will deter the damn miners' uprising! "

"Your Majesty!" Habs said with some embarrassment: "He has been on this island for a long time. I am afraid that he came at Thunder Stone. Those miners have discovered the secret of Thunder Stone, and he may have leaked it out. Otherwise, we don’t need anything on this island, how could he stay here forever?"

"It doesn't matter, you go and tell him! If you cooperate with me, I can provide him with a part of the Thunder Stone!" Varudo gritted his teeth.

"Is this really good?" Habs was still worried, and said: "What if he is not greedy enough and wants to completely control Thunder Stone?"

"Don't worry, as long as a period of time passes, my Thunder Roar Cannon will be successfully developed. What about Qiwuhai?" Varudo said somewhat proudly.

After receiving Varudo's order, Habs went down. He went back to the hotel in the city and found Ian.

"Oh? Did your king say that?" Ian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that in the message sent by Habs, Varudo had guessed his purpose and directly stated that he could provide him with a part of Thunder Stone .

Ian has not been idle during this time. He has been studying the small thunderstone crystal that Konanai obtained. Because of the Misaka Mikoto card, Ian can also control the power of lightning. I tried to see if I could absorb the electric energy in this thunderstone, but found that it didn't work.

However, even though it cannot be absorbed, Ian may take out the electric energy inside and use it. Originally, skills such as the sword of iron sand and the super-electromagnetic gun would consume a lot of his mind energy, but if he held the thunderstone in his hand to use it. , Ian found out that he could not consume his own thought power!

In other words, if there are enough thunderstones for him to use, he can completely treat the thunderstones as an external storage...

Although Ian has now broken through the master-level training skills, he can use the lightning sword of the gun sister card and the last thunder of the profound meaning, but this amazing skill, even if there is a master-level training, the consumption is reduced by 25%. It also consumes a lot of Ian, so it would be a good idea to get a lot of Thunder Stones to use as blue bottles.

However, even though Varudo felt that he had made a huge concession, how did he know that what Ian wanted was not the Thunderstone he provided, but completely controlled the production of Thunderstone in his own hands.

Because in addition to his own use, Ian also wants to use it to make transactions with the world government and make a lot of their money.

Ian thought quickly in his mind. He also knew that revealing his true purpose now would only make Varudo more vigilant. Now that he has agreed to cooperate with himself, it is a good start, so don’t Anxious.

Therefore, Yijian Zuo said with satisfaction: "Very good, then it is set, 300 million Baileys, plus a part of Thunder Stone for me, I can provide shelter for your king!"

Three hundred million Baileys, the money as an employment expense is really amazing, but Habs is very pleased because Ian agreed.

The deterrence of a Qiwuhai is higher than that of a dozen pirate groups. With Qiwuhai's promise, Varudo and the others will surely be at ease for a while.

Of course, Habs also knows that he cannot easily trust a pirate, even Qiwuhai, but it is important for them to buy time. As long as there is a certain time buffer, His Majesty Varudo’s research is successful. Can defeat any enemy!

"So, can I meet your king?" Ian asked.

"Of course, Your Majesty Varudo will welcome you!" Habs said.

………………………………

Later that afternoon, Ian finally entered Varudo's palace.

As a small country, the palace is nothing unusual. It is small and does not look very luxurious, but Ian still secretly keeps the environment along the way in mind.

In the palace, Ian finally saw this Varudo, a scientist, a pirate, and a king. The scars on Varudo’s face, coupled with the sulky eyes, made Ian When he first saw him, he felt very uncomfortable. He knew very well that such a person is impossible to force him to tell a secret through torture.

Although Varudo was smiling all the time when they met, he was also secretly looking at Ian. Although Ian looked young, Varudo didn't dare to be careless, carefully testing Ian with words. personality.

Ian knows the truth that too much talk must be lost, so he hasn't said much. After Varudo invited him to dinner, Ian asked to see the refinery of Thunder Stone.

Ian originally thought that Varudo might refuse, but he didn't expect that he would agree directly.

There is nothing unusual about visiting the refinery. Ian doesn’t really understand. He is just watching piles of ore, which are sent into the furnace along with the conveyor belt. After many processes, they become something Small pieces of thunderstone crystals were sent out.

After Ian watched for a while, he left, and Varudo sent him out himself.

When I left the palace and joined Konanayi who was waiting outside, Ian immediately sank and said in a low voice: "There is a problem, the refinement of Thunder Stone, I am afraid there is nothing special, but Varudo must hide it. Some other things!"
