708 Vertical Alliance, Trend (Part 2)

Even if this suggestion did not tempt Saleen, it would have tempted the noble families around him. Gathering their armies at Huoxing City was only an opportunity. Whether anything would come out of it would still have to depend on Holy Rock City. Since Lex had decided to rebuild the city, there was no need to worry about Holy Rock City anymore.

In the end, Saleen still managed to convince Lex to invest in a fleet.

The reason was simple. There was a gigantic lake separating Qin, Cloudflow, and Titan. This lake was close to one-thousand miles wide and was practically an ocean.

If a fleet patrolled this lake actively, all the cities around the lake could be potential targets.

Lex occupied some lands near Luolan where the lake was only a few hundred miles behind. It would be a good location to launch attacks on Cloudflow or the south of Qin in future.
