Chapter 25 The Beast Kingdom's World Item—Beast Taming Rod, Beast Legion

"But sir, even so, we have to pay a certain price to obtain the sweet potato seeds, and it's actually worth it," one subordinate said in a deep voice.

He believed that the more tightly guarded something was, the greater the benefits after obtaining it. Even if they had to sacrifice dozens of extraordinary warriors, it was worth it. After all, this was about the national fortune of the Beast Kingdom.

"That's right. The Tang Kingdom is so vast. Once we steal the sweet potato seeds, we'll be free to roam the skies and seas. Even if we hide in the ocean, no matter how strong the Tang Kingdom is, they won't be able to find us."

"Exactly! Even if they have extraordinary warriors, a fierce tiger will still need to rest, right? As long as we take advantage of their carelessness, we can steal the sweet potato seeds."

"Right. If worse comes to worst, we could bribe some of their people to steal the seeds for us."

Everyone was brainstorming strategies.

"No, no, no, it's not as simple as you think."

Jiang Santong said in a deep voice, "Perhaps you don't know, but the Tang Kingdom is also a nation skilled in taming magical creatures. They have tamed a magical creature called the Sky Bird, which, with its speed of 05, can cross 3,000 kilometers in an hour."

"This means that if something happens in a certain area, the nearby troops or extraordinary warriors can use the Sky Bird to reach the location in just a few hours."

"But even so, if we steal the sweet potato seeds, even if they want to send a message, it would take at least a few hours for the message to be sent back and forth. By then, we could have already escaped to some remote place," one subordinate remarked.

"I originally thought that too, but the Tang Kingdom has another magical creature called the Thought Worm. With the Thought Worm, real-time communication is possible. Even if they are tens of thousands of kilometers apart, they can communicate as if they were right next to each other. So, once the news of us stealing the sweet potato seeds leaks, the message will be spread across the entire country in an instant," Jiang Santong said helplessly.

"This!"

Hearing this, everyone was left speechless, their plans thoroughly thwarted by the Tang Kingdom's tightly woven net.

Stealing the sweet potato seeds now seemed as difficult as ascending to heaven.

"I didn't expect the Tang Kingdom to be so skilled in taming magical creatures. I always thought only our kingdom had such expertise," one subordinate said with deep emotion.

The reason their kingdom was called the Beast Kingdom was because the ruler of the Beast Kingdom controlled a powerful world item—the Beast Taming Rod.

As long as the Beast Taming Rod lightly tapped a magical creature, it would immediately be tamed and become humanity's most intimate companion, reaching a 100% bond.

With this world item, the ruler of the Beast Kingdom had tamed countless magical creatures, turning them into helpers and forming a vast empire.

These magical creatures were incredibly powerful, with some being as strong as extraordinary warriors, and even stronger than ordinary ones. They also possessed many extraordinary abilities.

The Beast Legion of the Beast Kingdom was especially famous. On the vast seas, it had an invincible reputation that made countless countries tremble with fear.

"Indeed, it's hard to believe there are such creatures like the Thought Worm. Why doesn't our kingdom have them? If the Beast Kingdom had the Thought Worm, we could communicate instantly and send messages across the nation in the blink of an eye," one subordinate said excitedly.

To be honest, even though the Beast Kingdom had the ability to tame magical creatures, that didn't mean they had access to all of them. Even if they wanted to tame a magical creature, they first had to find it.

The Thought Worm was a magical creature unique to the Tang Kingdom. No other continent had a creature like it.

It was like the panda—other than the lands of China, no other place has wild pandas.

This was the same principle.

Therefore, even the Beast Kingdom didn't possess magical creatures like the Thought Worm.

"That's right, we not only need to steal the sweet potato seeds, but also the Thought Worms," one subordinate immediately said.

He felt that the Tang Kingdom had so many good things, and he couldn't help but want to steal everything from them and keep it for himself.

"Stealing the Thought Worms isn't that simple either. The most important thing about the Thought Worms is the queen. Only with the queen can countless larvae be produced. If we just steal the ordinary Thought Worms, it would be useless," Jiang Santong said impatiently. "The problem is that the queen is heavily guarded by the Tang Kingdom. We have no chance of getting our hands on it. This matter still requires careful planning."

"Damn it, why is the Tang Kingdom so heavily guarded? Isn't there any opportunity to take advantage of?" The group cursed loudly.

"You think that's why the Tang Kingdom can become an empire? Without such a sense of secrecy, how could they possibly succeed? The more difficult it is, the more valuable it proves the importance of these things," Jiang Santong's eyes gleamed coldly.

"But sir, this won't work, and that won't work. Are we really just going to give up?" the subordinates asked.

"Of course not," Jiang Santong replied. "I'm just saying it requires careful planning. I'm not saying it's impossible to succeed."

He continued in a deep voice, "We need a lot of helpers, a perfectly cautious plan, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Only then can we move and steal the Tang Kingdom's treasures." As the famous intelligence head of the Beast Kingdom, Jiang Santong could never give up easily.

On the contrary, the more difficult the task, the more interested he became.

"However, we still need to be cautious of the Tang Kingdom's movements. If they take action against our Beast Kingdom, it may not be a good thing, especially since we are so close to them," one person spoke up.

"This issue is not significant," Jiang Santong waved his hand. "Although the Tang Kingdom's national strength and military power are formidable, they are strong only on land. Their navy is not strong enough."

"If the Tang Kingdom were to abandon its strengths and come fight us at sea, it would be nothing but disgrace. We might even have the chance to wipe out their navy," he said, feeling that the Tang Kingdom's development was still too young and their weakness lay in their navy.

The saying "A ten-year army, a hundred-year navy" wasn't just a saying.

Training naval personnel, building warships, and other naval operations could not be done in just ten years. It required centuries of experience and development.

So in the short term, he didn't need to worry about the Tang Kingdom invading the Beast Kingdom.

Right now, the Tang Kingdom didn't have the strength to invade other countries.
