Chapter 197 The Great Xia's Domineering Chapter: Don't say you weren't warned!
The scene switches to the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Great Xia.
The spokesperson appeared serious, and when pressed by foreign journalists, his voice was strong and clear.
"The Great Xia Dynasty has always pursued a defensive national defense policy!"
"We love peace, but we are never afraid of any external threats."
"Our normal troop movements and combat readiness upgrades are solely in response to the actions of certain countries that are brandishing weapons on our doorstep and deliberately provoking conflict!"
"It is a necessary measure to safeguard one's own security."
The spokesperson scanned the entire room, his tone becoming unusually sharp.
"On the contrary, some countries, instead of reflecting on their own actions, have repeatedly provoked incidents, and now they even have the audacity to accuse others and confuse the public!"
"We solemnly reiterate that Great Xia will not provoke trouble, but it is absolutely not afraid of trouble either!"
His gaze locked onto the reporter who asked the question, and he spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice resounding throughout the press conference hall.
"Don't say you weren't warned!"
The last seven words were spoken with resounding force.
The video ended, and the car fell silent again.
Lin Mo felt a surge of heat rush from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head.
happy!!!
"It felt good, that's great." Zhao Gang turned off the screen, his smile fading slightly.
"But the joint exercises with the United States have not been canceled; on the contrary, they have sent two more aircraft carriers."
"What they mean is that unless we 'restore' our military scale to what it was before, their exercises will continue to escalate!"
Long Zhan's face was stern, and he snorted coldly.
"Overestimating yourself!"
The atmosphere in the command room was somewhat somber.
Lin Mo frowned. This Eagle Nation is truly disgusting.
He looked at Zhao Gang and said:
"How's the progress of the super mecha 'Pangu' going?"
Zhao Gang was taken aback, but then he understood what Lin Mo meant.
"It's almost done."
"We're still missing the most crucial step—the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion." A hint of regret lingered in Zhao Gang's voice.
"Dozens of project teams at the Chinese Academy of Sciences are working around the clock, sparing no effort to overcome the challenges."
Lin Mo: "If only we could get it ready on the day of their military exercise..."
He paused, a cold smile appearing on his face.
"It's a good opportunity to take the 'Pangu' out for a spin and test its power against their aircraft carrier fleet."
Upon hearing this, even Long Zhan couldn't help but glance at him.
Zhao Gang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
Who doesn't look forward to that day?
Piloting the steel god forged by the Great Xia Dynasty, let's tell the world who the rule-makers are!
Just then, there was a knock on the door of the command room.
A soldier salutes and reports.
"Reporting, sir! Elder Thorin Steelbeard, the dwarf, and Grom, the orc chieftain, have come to visit and wish to see you."
Lin Mo and Zhao Gang exchanged a glance.
"Let them in."
"yes!"
The door was pushed open, and Thorin Steelbeard, a short and stocky figure, was the first to enter. His white beard was braided into several thick braids, and he walked with a powerful stride.
Immediately afterwards, a huge figure followed cautiously behind.
Grom, the orc chieftain, was so tall in his centaur form that even with his head bowed, his forehead slammed solidly against the alloy door frame with a "thud."
A heavy thud echoed in the command room.
Grom shook his enormous head, bent down, and squeezed into the room.
Lin Mo's facial muscles twitched, but he managed to suppress his laughter.
Thorin didn't even turn his head. He walked straight to the table and slammed a rolled-up piece of parchment onto it.
"Commander!" His voice was as loud as if it had been struck by iron.
"Your portal expires this afternoon!"
"As agreed, you were supposed to sell us a batch of equipment on the last day!"
"It's time to keep our promise!"
Grom echoed in a low voice:
"That's right!"
Lin Mo, with a straight face, gestured for him to enter.
"Of course, Elder Thorin, I haven't forgotten. The things have been prepared for you."
He gestured for the dwarf to sit down, while Lin Mo was already used to Grom standing.
Thorin's tense expression finally relaxed. He snorted and pushed the parchment in his hand in front of Lin Mo.
"This is a list of goods that we dwarves can offer for trade. Take a look!"
Lin Mo smiled, picked up the parchment, and unfolded it.
A strong smell, a mixture of ink and some kind of specially tanned leather, wafted over.
The handwriting on the list was strong and powerful, and it was written in the common language of Terra.
Zhao Gang and Long Zhan also came over, and the three of them looked at the list together.
The first category is weapons and equipment.
Dwarves forged battleaxes, warhammers, longswords, and sturdy chainmail and plate armor.
These are hard currency on Terra and are highly sought after by all races.
The list also indicates the quality level: Common, Excellent, and Rare.
There are even "epic" level equipment and "legendary" equipment!
An epic warhammer called "Wrath of Fury" is described as being able to double combat power and having the ability to ignore defense.
An epic longbow named "Starfall".
When the bowstring is drawn, it automatically condenses into a magical arrow, automatically tracks the target, and has the effects of armor penetration and explosion, making it incredibly lethal.
Long Zhan paused slightly, clearly showing great interest in these masterpieces of the era of cold weapons.
And at the very end of the weapon and equipment list is the only legendary item—the Space Ring!
Description: The internal solidified space is 1,000 cubic meters.
Lin Mo's pupils dilated slightly.
Finally, I saw it—the spatial ring!
This thing has a strategic value far exceeding that of any weapon.
In any novel, a prop that can carry 1,000 cubic meters of supplies is an absolute cheat code!
If this spatial ring were in the hands of a nation, its significance for logistics and special operations would be self-evident!
To put it bluntly, with it, a special operations team can assassinate any target and will never fail.
Great Xia, we have longed for this moment for so long!
If Qian Zhenhua and others saw this, they would probably go crazy for it, right?
The second category is handicrafts.
A wide variety of enchanted jewelry offers effects such as shields, purification, beautification, detoxification, and youthfulness.
Lin Mo was amazed. If the women on Earth saw this, they would all go bankrupt for it.
The third category is mineral resources.
Upon seeing this column, Zhao Gang's breathing noticeably quickened.
Gold, silver, platinum... these are just appetizers.
What follows is the main event.
Mithril, Adamantite, Thorium, Arcanite...
A list of rare metals was now clearly written on the parchment.
The recently developed "Zhengjin" requires metals from the Terra continent as its base material, with mithril being an excellent room-temperature superconducting material.
These things can bring about a qualitative change in the Great Xia's technology tree!
The fourth category consists of the dwarves' core products: various runes.
Stable, weight reduction, sharpness, stability, explosive, acceleration, armor penetration...
Each item corresponds to a specific magical ability.
These runes can be embedded into various equipment, weapons, and even objects to produce corresponding effects.
Lin Mo and the other two exchanged glances, their hearts pounding!
