Chapter 676 - 676 7 Transaction in Progress_2

676: Chapter 7, Transaction in Progress_2 676: Chapter 7, Transaction in Progress_2 There were actually disagreements within the kingdom’s military about the vigorous development of the Magical Beast Legion.

Some people were in favor, while others were against the idea.

Both sides had their arguments, especially after Hudson’s proposal to build the Magic Crossbows and Magic Crystal Cannons pushed the dispute to a climax.

Compared with Magical Beasts, which could have accidents at any time, lifeless Magic Crossbows and Magic Crystal Cannons are obviously much easier to control.

Currently, within the Military Department, they’ve barely reached an agreement: vigorously promote the construction of the Magical Beast Legion.

In order to develop the Magical Beast Legion well, he must first secure Hudson’s support, otherwise the plan cannot proceed at all.

“His Excellency the Grand Duke, the Magical Beast Legions of the various major forces are indeed powerful.

In my view, once the cost issue of Magical Beasts is solved, the Magical Beast Legions will become the mainstream of the Continental Army.

It is said that the Tyrannosaurus of the Frank Kingdom, with the help of magic potions, only needs seven years to go from birth to the battlefield.

The time taken to cultivate Pterosaurs is slightly longer, but won’t exceed ten years.

Although this growth time is far longer than that of war horses, it is already acceptable.

If research continues, this time can be further reduced.

If cost is not considered, they now have the ability to breed Magical Beasts on a large scale.

The progress of several other major powers is somewhat slower, but this gap should not be too big.

Maybe in just a few decades, Magical Beast Legions will become common!”

Hudson voiced his worries.

This information is public among the allied forces, and as the commander of the kingdom’s army, Hudson naturally pays attention to the news of his allies.

As for the question of the reliability of the news, it’s not that important.

The fact that Duke Eufeele came to him clearly shows that the kingdom wants to develop the Magical Beast Legion.

“Both Your Majesty and His Excellency the Count agree that the Magical Beast Legion is the mainstream of future warfare.

Not only our human race, but also many of the different races are deeply researching this and have formed their own Magical Beast Legions.

Among all, the ones who have advanced the furthest in this field are not the Frank Kingdom, but the ancient Elf race.

Compared to our humans, Elves are naturally closer to nature and thus are more likely to win the favor of Magical Beasts.

How much progress they have made is still unknown.

However, it is certain that the Frank people are already preparing to form Magical Beast Legions on a large scale.

According to the intelligence gathered by the kingdom, Charles III has secretly declared his intention to form eight Tyrannosaurus regiments and five Pterosaur regiments within the next five years.

The exact number of personnel is unknown, but given the reputation of the First Kingdom of the Continent, each of their Legions should have at least several thousand Magical Beast Knights.

The Clergy, Iberia Kingdom, and more than a dozen other major human forces, all have similar plans.

The remaining human forces have also been taking action in secret, but their progress is still not apparent.

The kingdom is seriously lagging in this regard.

If it doesn’t catch up quickly, it will be in big trouble once all major forces complete this military reform!”

After listening to Duke Eufeele’s words, Hudson muttered a curse about the shamelessness of it all.

All these reasons are just for breeding Dragons.

Besides, he was subtly telling him: Don’t take advantage at this time, it will annoy everyone.

“Your Excellency, if the kingdom is to form a Magical Beast Legion, I will certainly support it one hundred percent.

But the problem is that although I am a magician, I know nothing about breeding Magical Beasts.

Even though I want to contribute, I don’t know how to start!”

Hudson pretended to be confused.

He may not take any advantage, but it’s still necessary to fight for the initiative.

As Duke Eufeele, the Minister of Military Affairs, is quite busy and doesn’t have time to dawdle with Hudson, he cut straight to the point:

“Your Excellency, I’m certain that you can help with this task.

According to the Magical Beast Legions formed by various major forces, they all mainly consist of sub-dragon beasts.

The seeds for breeding and research mostly come from giant dragons.

As the fourth Dragon Knight on the continent, the future of the kingdom rests on you.”

Upon hearing this explanation, Hudson nearly turned pale.

What does he mean by the future rests on him?

It was clearly resting on Maximus the Red Dragon.

But it was Maximus, the Red Dragon, who was to mate with the Magical Beast, not Earl Hudson.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally didn’t retort.

It was merely a slip of the tongue, no need to be so petty.

“Your Excellency, it’s no use just persuading me, it’s crucial that the giant dragon is willing to cooperate.

You know, the mating period of giant dragons is completely irregular.

Although theoretically, adult giant dragons can voluntarily enter the mating period, there are barely successful cases like this.

At least the other three Dragon Knights haven’t been able to convince their Dragon to agree.

As a new Dragon Knight, my understanding of dragon habits is even less, and persuading the Red Dragon to voluntarily enter the mating period could be quite difficult!”

“Difficult” is not to be feared, as long as it can be done.

Whether by trickery or bribery, as long as the Red Dragon contributes its seed, Duke Eufeele does not care about the process.

The worst-case scenario is to wait for the Dragon’s natural mating period.

If it can be triggered earlier, it is worth paying a certain price.

“Your Excellency the Count, if there are any difficulties, just raise them.

As long as the kingdom can solve them, they will definitely help you accomplish it!”

Duke Eufeele said helplessly, massaging his forehead.
