Xu Yi was surprised.
If he had heard this before seeing Kassandra, he definitely would have been very surprised.
But he had just talked to Kassandra for a while, so naturally he wasn't excited about this news.
"This fellow Noir ….. He clearly knew that this Illusion Projection Module was brought over by that dragon Kassandra … …"
Xu Yi muttered before continuing to watch.
Through Noir's description in the illusion, Xu Yi had a general understanding of the situation.
The exploration fleet led by Noir had arrived on this island where the dragons lived around four months ago. Before this, they had been heading west on the endless seas. Although they had explored countless islands and even met some humans on a few islands, there wasn't anything worth paying attention to.
When they arrived at the island and discovered the legendary Dragon Clan on the island, everyone was shocked at that time.
But to their surprise, the ferocious-looking dragons were not as ferocious as the legends said. Instead, they showed great interest in them and began to communicate with them in a friendly manner.
After a month of communication, the fleet learned many things that they didn't know before with the help of the dragons.
For example, there were several continents in this world. For example, the closest one to this island was the Demon Cloud Continent. For example, there were halflings all over the Demon Cloud Continent. For example … …
After obtaining this basic information, Noir was certain that the fleet would be heading to the Demon Cloud Continent to explore.
But he felt that the information he had obtained was very valuable, so he needed to report it to sir chairman first.
When Noir was considering how to send people back to report, there was actually a dragon that they knew who volunteered to do this for them.
The vitality of the dragons was very strong, it wasn't a problem for them to fly at full speed for a month. They were even faster than the Magic Airships, so if it was a dragon doing this, it would save a large amount of time.
"Sir chairman, considering the existence of the Illusion Projection Module, I feel that this method of reporting to you should be acceptable.
Also, if a dragon personally came to deliver the letter, it would be more convincing, so I agreed to her suggestion.
When you saw this illusion, I believe that you should have seen Kassandra and talked to her. "
Xu Yi could not help but roll his eyes.
There was no problem for Noir to be the commander of the fleet, but his habit of spouting nonsense every time he made a report had not changed at all. When he returned, he would have to train him properly.
However, Xu Yi felt that something was strange.
According to what Noir said in this vision, Kassandra should have left about three months ago.
But with the speed of the dragons that surpassed the Magic Airship, ten thousand kilometers wasn't considered that far. Why was Kassandra so slow?
"According to the description of the dragons, the closest landing point from the Demon Cloud Continent to this island is less than a thousand kilometers away, so I decided that before exploring the unknown Demon Cloud Continent, it is best to set up a base nearby as a station, so that we can have a place to evacuate if the exploration is unfavorable."
Hearing Noir's words, Xu Yi nodded in approval.
Noir's considerations could be considered very serious, but for their fleet that was over ten thousand kilometers away from the New Flight Commerce Main Base, it couldn't be too serious. There was no doubt that his actions were correct.
According to Noir's plan, the voyage exploration fleet will first send a small number of ships and a small number of people to the Demon Cloud Continent for preliminary exploration. The rest of the people and the fleet will find a large island with a good living environment near the island where the dragons live and start to build a base.
When Kassandra said that "the fleet needed help", it was actually Noir's request for manpower and materials.
"Sir chairman, with the good relationship we have with the dragons, as long as we build a base on this island, we will have a firm foothold outside the Demon Cloud Continent. It will be a good foundation for our company to enter the Demon Cloud Continent in the future.
This subordinate thinks that we should continue investing in this place. At the same time, we have found that the dragons need some special products … … "
###
"Sir chairman, this is a good opportunity!" Kennard slapped the table and looked at Xu Yi with sparkling eyes, as his eyes were filled with excitement.
"This is a brand new continent!
It means a new and huge market!
If our company can fully control this market, it means that our company will have unimaginable space for development! "
"Don't get excited." Xu Yi raised his hand and gestured to Kennard to calm down first.
"There are two problems now.
First, the authenticity of this illusion is still uncertain. "
Kennard was startled, "Sir chairman, do you … … suspect Noir?"
"I can't be sure whether this illusion is real or not." Xu Yi glanced at him.
"You should know that the principle of illusion is to use an illusion array to create it.
This means that there is the possibility of directly creating false illusions. "
"But Noir in this illusion is very real. I don't think that a direct forgery can reach this level." Kennard said.
"Yes.
So there is another possibility, that Noir himself has been tampered with.
Of course, this is only my conjecture. The reason is that Noir didn't send a single subordinate back this time, and only sent Kassandra back to report. This doesn't make sense.
"Mm … …" Kennard thought for a while before lightly nodding.
"This doesn't make sense.
Noir shouldn't have thought of this. "
"The second question is, even if this illusion is real, to what extent should we provide support?"
"This … …"
Kennard thought for a long time this time.
After thinking for a while with his head lowered, he replied with certainty, "To the best of our ability!
Sir chairman, for a company, a new market is the hardest to come by.
The reason why our company has developed so quickly in the past few years is because the magic machine industry in Sines is completely empty. So we have the advantage and have developed quickly. "
"But with the other countries on the continent paying more attention to the magic machine industry, our company can no longer monopolize the market like before.
So from now on, finding a new market is the most important thing for us to consider.
And now, if the news brought back by this dragon is true, it means that she has brought us a huge new market.
If we don't use it well, it would be suicide! "
Seeing the excited Kennard, Xu Yi revealed a faint smile. He thought that Kennard was a true merchant.
But the angle he considered was slightly different from his.
"But Kennard, since we know about this news, it is impossible to hide it from others.
Sooner or later, other countries will know that there are several continents outside of Sines. Do you think that they can't think of this problem? "
"So what if they can think of it?" Kennard gave a soft snort, as his voice was filled with confidence.
"Right now only our New Flyer has the Magic Boats that can sail the seas. Even if they know that there are other continents outside of Sines, without the support of the Magic Boats, they can't go there at all."
"Have you forgotten that our New Flyer's main body is still in Sines?
It is impossible to completely abandon them. "Xu Yi shook his head with a smile.
"Of course, I agree with you.
A new continent means a new market.
No matter what angle we consider it from, we have to grasp this chance.
Un … … "
Xu Yi thought for a bit before taking a piece of paper. He drew a circle on it and marked the Sines, before drawing a long line to the left. He put a dot on it and wrote Noir. Then he drew another circle to the left and marked the Demon Cloud Continent.
"Now we have to confirm the authenticity of this information." Xu Yi tapped on the dot with Noir.
"Then we'll decide how to operate this outpost according to the situation.
At the same time … … "
Xu Yi tapped on the line again before knitting his brows.
"The biggest problem right now is communication.
Whether it is that island or the Demon Cloud Continent, they are too far away, so it will take a long time to send any information. It will take at least a month to go back and forth.
That long time is enough for many things to change. "
Kennard looked at the small dots that Xu Yi had tapped on the line and said with a frown, "Sir chairman, you wouldn't be thinking of building magic signal towers one by one, right?
This investment is too terrifying, even our New Flyer can't take it.
Moreover ….. the environment of the endless seas won't allow it. "
"Un, so this is a big problem right now." Xu Yi tapped on the paper a few more times before giving up on this problem.
"Forget it, we can only think of a way to solve the communication problem later. Right now we should consider how to confirm the authenticity of this information.
Kennard, I want you to immediately make a detailed plan.
Once we decide to send reinforcements, I need you to organize a fleet with enough power as soon as possible. "
"No problem!" Kennard replied without any hesitation.
Then his expression changed as he asked, "That's right, sir chairman.
That dragon said that there are several continents other than the Demon Cloud Continent, shouldn't we explore those other continents? "
"Don't think of becoming a fatty in one bite." Xu Yi reprimanded.
"The most important thing is that our company's current strength isn't enough to support all these exploration lines at the same time."
Kennard blinked and could only give a sigh.
