Iksil said with a hint of resentment, his eight octopus tentacles swaying back and forth.
Ye Feng then said with a smile, "Since you came here in a daze, it means you have a connection with our Silla City. So why don't you stay in our Silla City for a while? Maybe you will experience a different kind of fun here."
“It’s good to relax. Although our underwater world is very beautiful, we’ve been looking at it for hundreds of years and we’re getting a little tired of it,” Iksil nodded.
Iksil yawned, looking utterly listless. "I'm tired and need to rest. Have you arranged a place for me to sleep?"
"Qing'er, take Miss Iksil to her tent," Ye Feng said with a smile.
"Yes, Ancestor."
Luo Qing immediately led Iksil away from Yefeng's tent and headed towards a tent not far away.
After entering the tent, Luo Qing looked at the empty tent and said, "I'm really sorry, because of the short notice and because we don't know what your Sea Spirit Clan usually needs, we haven't prepared anything except a bathtub."
"If you need anything, just ask, and I will do my best to meet your needs."
Iksil shook his head and said nonchalantly, "No need, this bathtub is enough!"
As he spoke, Iksil approached the only piece of furniture in the tent—the very large bathtub.
She dipped an octopus tentacle into the bathtub, got some water in it, and then put it in her mouth, smacking her lips as she tasted it.
"Did you add salt?" Iksil asked.
"I added it! I added a whole bag!" the maid Luo Xiaotong said crisply.
"Not enough, add more! Never mind, maybe next time. I'm so sleepy, I'll just take a nap first."
After saying that, Iksil jumped into the bathtub, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
Seeing that Yikshir had completely sunk into the water and his body was completely covered by water, Luo Xiaotong immediately looked nervous.
"Miss, she won't drown, will she?" Luo Xiaotong asked.
Luo Qing said with a smile, "She's different from us humans, she's a marine creature!"
"Marine life?"
Luo Xiaotong's face showed an expression that seemed to understand but not quite.
When Luo Qing returned to Ye Feng's tent, she found that Chen He had already left.
As the Director of the Security Department, Chen He has many things to do every day. Moreover, the infantry corps of Silla City is rapidly expanding, and an artillery corps of two thousand men has even been formed.
Therefore, the burden on Chen He's shoulders is also very heavy!
At this very moment, Rowling is reporting the shipbuilding progress to Nightwind.
“Ancestor, the steel warship you designed is really too complicated, and it requires a huge amount of steel. It can’t be built in a short time.”
"However, we have already overcome several technical difficulties in building steel warships. It seems that building steel warships is only a matter of time."
Just as Rowling finished speaking, Night Wind asked, "So, exactly how long will it take to build the ship I want?"
"At the earliest... it will take twenty days. The first steel warship can be launched after twenty days."
Rowling paused, then quickly added, "With the experience of building the first steel warship, our construction speed will definitely be greatly accelerated. Moreover, I have already appointed people to build the second and third steel mills to increase the scale of steel production."
"According to my calculations, we will have ten to fifteen steel warships within two months!"
Night Breeze frowned, lost in thought, and murmured, "Two months? Hopefully, it'll be in time..."
"In time what? Ancestor, is something big about to happen?" Rowling asked immediately.
Luo Qing, Zijing, and Gongbu Qiuye also looked at Ye Feng with curiosity.
Ye Feng asked with a smile, "The Hongtian Empire is like a dilapidated warship sailing on the sea, but riddled with holes. How long do you think this warship can hold out?"
Luo Lin and Luo Qing looked at each other, unsure how to respond.
After all, these words are no different from treason.
Night Wind continued, "Moreover, the other city lords in the Southern Territory are probably getting restless now. Perhaps all it takes is a trigger for a major upheaval."
Rowling then felt a strong sense of urgency.
She nodded vigorously and said, "I understand, Ancestor. I will complete the task you have given me as soon as possible!"
"We must prioritize quality and quantity, not just speed," Ye Feng said.
"yes!"
Rowling said firmly.
Ye Feng smiled and looked at Luo Qing, saying, "Although the Wave Cannon is very powerful, its size is too large... Let's improve it again, reduce its size, and make it suitable for single-soldier use."
“Yes!” Rowling replied emphatically, mimicking her aunt.
After Luo Lin and Luo Qing left, Ye Feng turned to look at Zi Jing.
Zijing, who was munching on sunflower seeds, suddenly froze and weakly asked, "Do I have a mission too?"
"Didn't you always complain to me that you, the director of the Inspection Department, are just a figurehead?" Ye Feng said.
"Are you going to send me more men? Oh, that's great!" Zijing jumped up in surprise.
Night Wind shook his head and said, "It's not me who will send you more men; you'll have to find them yourself. I remember you told me before that you had a bunch of cronies, and they were all talented and had a silver tongue..."
"They're either thieves or swindlers; they don't have any real skills," Zijing said awkwardly.
"What I want are thieves and liars."
As Ye Feng spoke, he waved his hand, and Zi Jing skipped over and put her ear to Ye Feng's mouth.
As the night wind rustled and whispered its tale, Zijing's face lit up with excitement.
"So you're planning to build an intelligence network! No problem, leave it to me!" Zijing said, then dashed out of the tent and disappeared without a trace.
All that remained inside the tent was the night breeze and the autumn leaves of Kampot.
Ye Feng turned to look at Gongbu Qiuye, who had been calm and composed, but suddenly became a little nervous.
“Old buddy, you don’t want me to do things for you too, do you?” Gongbu Qiuye asked.
"Nonsense, why would I keep you in Silla City if I didn't want you to do anything?"
Night Breeze said irritably, then his smile faded: "Autumn Leaf, what position should I assign you? And what tasks should I give you?"
Gongbu Qiuye's face showed reluctance.
He sighed and said, "My strength is no match for yours. Moreover, now that Xinluo City has Director Li, a Saint Realm expert, and a Sea Spirit Clan Miss, who is at the Transcendent Realm, I am even less of a threat. So you definitely wouldn't think much of my martial arts skills."
"There's no need to belittle yourself. After all, you're at the mid-stage of the Divine Travel Realm, which puts you in the top five in our Xinluo City," Ye Feng said with a smile.
