Chapter 183 Let’s Escape from Castel Together

Banshees are good at head-on combat, but sea urchin monsters are difficult to fight head-on, so the nymphs' abilities of perception and concealment may be more useful.

Hughes planned to have a good chat with Chloe later. He turned to look at Una and said, "I think your work here will be heavier. In addition to the emergency team, the Banshees should all focus on the construction. It will take three days to complete the underground part. I have already told the islanders about your existence. Then you can show up in public on the island."

The banshees were silent for a moment. They were still quite nervous about this. No one knew whether banshees, as an alien race, could be accepted by humans. If there was any friction, how to deal with it? These were all unknowns.

In comparison, the Banshee would rather fight the sea urchin monster.

"Don't worry. This matter has been preheated for a long time. Didn't your contact with the advanced class students go smoothly? After the exhibition of Nini's statue a few days ago, the feedback was also very good. You will get along well with the islanders."

In the crowd, Erwin scratched his head unconsciously. He felt a little scared when he first saw the banshees. After all, they were an inhuman alien race and so tall. But after more contact with them, he found that these banshees were actually very similar to humans.

No, to be precise, they are very similar to Lord Zeus. He did not have much contact with Zeus, but Zeus's unique way of thinking left a deep impression on him, and these banshees gave him the same feeling.

Everything will go well, he couldn't help but pray secretly in his heart. These powerful and interesting banshees had won his favor unknowingly. He liked working with these banshees when he was a student in the advanced class, so he sincerely hoped that they could get along well with the islanders.

"Okay, let's go back. The battle has begun. Castel's fate depends on us."

People nodded silently and dispersed.

The enemy arrived earlier than expected, and they were not prepared, but they were not without the ability to fight back.

Castres is no longer the remote island with nothing.

Chloe stayed, she waited quietly by the side, watching Hughes rub his forehead slowly.

"Actually, I have a way to leave here and even take someone with me." She suddenly said.

Xius's hand paused, and he looked up at her.

"In the Sea of ​​No Knowledge, the more knowledge one possesses, the harder it is to move. However, the Fire-Chasing Moth has a secret method that allows it to pay a huge price and force itself to dive in the sea - in other words, to stay away from here."

"You mean"

"Yes, I can take you away from Castel, to the Empire, or anywhere else, but I can only take you with me, and the cost is too heavy."

Xius was silent for a while, then he said softly: "What is the price?"

"I will die and sink forever in the sea of ​​unconsciousness, but my consciousness will be attached to you. If you can find a new body in the future, you can separate me out."

Hughes pursed his lips, his eyes full of surprise.

"Why would you want to do that?"

Chloe walked slowly in the room, leaned against the wall, folded her arms across her chest, and lowered her head. "I am the chief of the Fire Moth, and I must always consider the survival of the sect. You are very important to us."

Hughes raised his eyebrows.

"We have traveled to many places and met many lords and countries, but only your Castel gives us the most hope."

"So I'm more important than you? Most of the Fire Moth's power is here, right? Can they really do without you? If you don't take me with you, you won't have to die, right?"

"I didn't really die with you." Chloe muttered, "I just lost this body. In the future, maybe I can meet a new one and break out of the cocoon and become a moth again, but you are dead."

Zeus seemed to suddenly understand something. Chloe was actually very similar to himself. The flesh and blood in front of him were just shells. He could always come back to another place.

But if the two sides exchanged their positions, would he be willing to give up Lord Xius's body to save the other party?

He didn't know either. Maybe only when this moment really came would he have the answer in his heart.

"Well, don't worry. We are not really forced to that point. I have a lot of knowledge in my head. I am just randomly taking out some of it now. Castel has just started industrialization. Soon its production capacity will surprise you."

Chloe was silent, contrary to her usual behavior. She was usually noisy, but now she just nodded quietly.

The steel plant is very close to the Eastern Test Field, so she is responsible for its management. The gradually increasing production capacity of the steel plant even makes her feel a little scared.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The roaring noise day and night, the physical pollution poured into the boiler, the complete set of modern production processes designed by Hughes, and the efficient management system, all of these together seemed to produce a chemical reaction, turning the steel plant into a huge monster that swallowed raw materials and spit out steel.

It carried out the lord's will coldly and ruthlessly. The piled up iron ingots filled up the warehouses. She was originally worried that the production capacity would not be enough for the entire island, but she soon found that she was overthinking.

The efficiency of modern factories far exceeded Chloe's wildest imagination. It was not that she had never seen a factory before. She had also sneaked into those dirty and chaotic factories in the Rhine. She had wanted to see if there were any new technologies worth learning, but in the end she walked out disappointed.

She used to think that those factories were representatives of advancement, and that chaotic management and machine injuries were inevitable. However, it was here in Castel that she truly witnessed the power of industry.

The terrifying production capacity alone shocked her. After a truly in-depth understanding, she realized how far-sighted Hughes was. As the factory operated, those seemingly inexplicable systems suddenly came into play and avoided accidents from happening again and again.

Chloe looked at Hughes with a more determined look. Whether for the sake of the Fire Moth or for her own selfish reasons, she had to ensure that Hughes survived. He was the hope of this era.

Hughes was looking through the cabinet with his head down. He took out a few blueprints and said, "Look, this is a rifle. It should be very easy to manufacture. We can even find some craftsmen to make it by hand. The quantity we need is not too large. The preparation process of smokeless gunpowder is also here. You can arrange for someone to prepare the nitrocellulose first. Chloe?"

Chloe finally came back to her senses, and she nodded quickly: "No problem, I'll arrange some staff right away."

"There is one more thing." Zeus pointed to the fishmen corpses on the table. "Let's dissect them. I always feel that something is not right. These fishmen may be hiding some secrets."
