The night was dark, as if someone had poured a layer of thick ink on the sky, blocking out the sun, moon and stars.

Only darkness enveloped the world, as if a giant beast had swallowed the world.

A fishing boat docks at the quiet pier.

It's like a sleeping child in its mother's arms, especially peaceful.

"Third uncle, third uncle, there's news, there's news."

On the fishing boat, Liu Xian sprinted into the corridor, opened the door to the captain's cabin with great excitement, and kept talking noisily before entering the room.

"The latest notification from the United Nations declares that all rights and interests on the high seas belong to the world and belong to every country and individual. No person or organization may occupy the high seas for any purpose or hinder others from carrying out any legal actions."

"Uncle Third, you really got it right. Countries around the world have reached a compromise, and the Poseidon Kingdom is open to the world."

"Third uncle, you are really a god, you know things like a god."

The more Liu Xian talked about it, the more excited he became. He just wished he could sing a song to vent his excitement.

The third uncle was sitting on the bed, with one foot on the edge of the bed and one foot casually resting on the edge of the bed, leaning against the bedside and reading a book.

The book is Romance of the Three Kingdoms. It is full of dirt and creases. The cover of the book is even worn. It has obviously been read countless times.

He looked calm, as if he had not heard the good news from Liu Xian at all.

Liu Xian felt admiration from the bottom of his heart when he saw his third uncle looking calm and composed.

When will I be able to have the magnanimity of my third uncle?

He even couldn't help but slow down and cautiously came to his third uncle. He stared at his dark and ordinary face with longing eyes and asked respectfully: "Third uncle, how do you know about the United States Federation and those individuals?"

Won’t other big countries monopolize Poseidon’s kingdom?”

When the third uncle heard this, he raised his head.

This time, he was not as rude as before and asked: "Can't you understand?"

Liu Xian quickly shook his head and said: "I don't understand."

"The Poseidon Kingdom has now been proven to be related to the gods, and it is even more proven that there are mythical creatures in it that we have never discovered before."

"Let's not talk about whether this is the country of Poseidon. Let's talk about the treasures here and the mythical creatures that have never been discovered before. None of them are priceless."

"Now that the situation in Poseidon's country has been exposed, those countries that used to be like bandits have now become polite and know how to be humble to each other. I really can't understand it."

"Even if the U.S. Federation cannot monopolize it, don't they know how to join forces to blockade the Poseidon Kingdom and let all countries lead the development? If I were to choose to blockade this place, and then cooperate with other countries to develop it, although it is not as good as the benefits brought by monopolizing the Poseidon Kingdom, but

It would be better than just opening it up like now."

The more Liu Xian talked, the more excited he became.

Because he really couldn't understand.

The third uncle smiled, patted the edge of the bed, and motioned for Liu Xian to sit down.

He pondered for a moment, then said slowly after careful consideration: "The specific situation of Poseidon's Kingdom is still unknown to all of us."

"The unknown represents unpredictable risks."

"Especially now that it is known that there is a mythical monster like the Blue Giant in the country of Poseidon."

"If you want to deal with a monster of that level, ordinary guns and artillery are of no use. Even if you say it's just scratching the itch, it's a little overrated. To destroy it, at least heavy artillery will be used, and it may even require the use of nuclear weapons."

Liu Xian listened very carefully.

Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Only those who have personally experienced the sea giant incident can truly feel the terrible sense of oppression. The monster is as tall as a forty-story building. Just standing motionless on the sea, it seems as if it is a towering mountain.

The sense of oppression, every time I make a move, it is like a tsunami that will destroy the world and destroy the earth!

Standing at the feet of the monster already makes your legs weak and your scalp numb, let alone dealing with him.

"One Blue Giant may require countries to use nuclear weapons. Not to mention the seriousness of the nuclear radiation pollution problem after the launch of nuclear weapons, which will seriously affect the subsequent development work. How many others do you think are like the Blue Giant in the Poseidon Kingdom?

monster?"

"One head, ten heads, or a hundred heads."

"If each country wants to develop Poseidon's kingdom on its own, how much manpower and material resources will it cost, and how many soldiers' lives will it cost?"

"Or how many nuclear weapons would it take to do it?"

"Is this price worth it?"

Liu Xian thought thoughtfully and retorted: "That's true, but don't they consider the huge benefits that may come from developing Poseidon's Kingdom?"

"That is a world in myths and legends, and it is impossible to estimate how many priceless treasures there are."

"Such a huge benefit is comparable to a golden mountain, no, it should be a golden continent."

"Although there are many challenges to develop the Poseidon Kingdom, the benefits are equally amazing. And if they want to develop the Poseidon Kingdom in the future, they will also have to face these problems. I still can't understand how they could give away such a golden mountain."

The third uncle sneered and shook his head in amusement.

"Giving it away to others, you think too highly of their kindness."

"They are not giving it away, they just need a low-cost death squad."

"Do you think the one who strikes first will have the last laugh?"

"Those who take action first are just dead soldiers exploring the path, and they are used as bait for fishing."

"Those who are lucky may be able to get some benefits from it, but the final result has long been doomed. After various countries and major forces have collected enough intelligence, they have determined the basic situation and danger level of the Poseidon Kingdom, and formulated a relatively complete safety plan.

With our plan, we will immediately swarm up and carve up this golden mountain just like a shark has found its prey."

"And the price they need to pay is just that this golden mountain is scattered in every corner of the earth."

"Using some scraps in exchange for the opportunity to obtain maximum benefits at the minimum cost, don't you think it's worth it?"

Liu Xian's pupils tightened, he took a deep breath, and then he understood.

Even if the small forces are the first to enter the Poseidon Kingdom, the resources they control are not enough to develop the gold mine. At most, they pick up bits and pieces of scraps outside the gold mine. The value of their existence is to explore, determine the situation of Jinshan, and

Danger, providing intelligence to the giant crocodiles watching behind the scenes.

When the giant crocodile determines the details of its prey, do the small shrimps exploring the path have the right to resist?

Absolutely impossible.

Those giant crocodiles can kill most of the smaller forces with just a sneeze.

All of this was clearly calculated by others.

Liu Xian completely woke up, thinking that he had become a pawn in the eyes of the major forces. The young man's self-esteem was greatly challenged. He couldn't help but feel ashamed. He couldn't help but cursed with a livid face: "His uncle,

These guys are so insidious."

"After doing this for a long time, I was happy for nothing. I thought they had not reached an agreement and were trying to restrain each other before they relaxed the restrictions of Poseidon's Kingdom. What turned out to be a bunch of old bastards squatting in the grass waiting to pick their heads."

"Third uncle, what should we do now? Are we still involved in this matter?"

Liu Xian thought about the calculations of various countries and major forces, and his heart was full of uneasiness and anger. He asked cautiously: "If we continue to participate, will we be targeted by those giant crocodiles in the future?"

The third uncle's eyes were slightly narrowed, and a gleam flashed through his eyes, as if a tiger had discovered its prey and was waiting for the moment to enjoy its prey.

He asked: "Why don't you participate?"

After asking, before Liu Xian could speak, the third uncle taught him earnestly: "Little people like us must have the self-consciousness of little people. The little pawns exploring the path may not be able to eat meat, but they will have the opportunity to smell the aroma of barbecue and touch it."

A touch of oil and water. Even if you just put a little oil and water on your hands, it will be enough for us uncles and nephews to have three generations of worry-free."

"Those little pawns who come in later will become food for the giant crocodile, let alone oil and water."

"If you want to make money, you can't take risks. Little people have their own ways of living, and giant crocodiles have their own ways of playing. What we have to do now is to make money step by step, and there is no need to consider other things."

"Just wait and see, it won't be long before a large number of small private expeditions and mercenaries rush in."

Liu Xian felt uncomfortable listening to his third uncle's answer.

I just thought about the reality, but I couldn't refute it at all, so I could only lower my head dejectedly.

In fact, just as the third uncle expected, in this game involving the future, the giants were not nervous at all, they were just sitting on the Diaoyutai waiting for their prey to appear.

As for the little guy who has nothing...

Danger?!

Is there anything more terrifying than poverty in this world?
