Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 145 Breakthrough progress value upper limit

Soon a simple but fair contract was completed under the negotiation of both parties, and the signing was completed under the witness of Owen.

The established contract was signed by Maya, and the little finger also pressed her handprint. Since then, the contract has been concluded. Once the two parties violate it, they will pay a huge price.

Little Thumb didn't ask Owen to sign the contract, because it was unrealistic, and no nobleman would sign the contract with his head watered unless he was desperate or too weak.

The size of Akita Town is nothing compared to the empire, but the problem is that the opponent has a legendary powerhouse who is loyal to him, and his background is even more unfathomable. Little Thumb is very self-aware about this, so he has no objection to Maya's signature.

Then Little Thumb was leaving the only hotel in the territory, which Owen gave.

It is not important to be the only hotel that allows outsiders to live. What is important is that it can help the territory manage outsiders and prevent them from messing around.

The reason it is not important is because many methods cannot be prevented by soldiers and hotel staff alone.

A ninja can certainly do the job, but it doesn't have to, because the Black Hand is the best at it.

Of course, the hotel is not free. After all, even if it is not the land, the building alone is worth a lot of money, not to mention the many decorations and drinks inside, so Little Thumb took out the reward commonly used by black hands, information.

Compared with the incomplete Northland witch intelligence network, the black hand is more professional, and the degree of penetration into the border of the empire is quite high. Therefore, although the intelligence provided is only ordinary information, Owen has a considerable understanding of the overall situation of the border of the empire. learn.

"The black hand really lives up to its reputation. This information is really professional." Owen rubbed his chin, watching the thick pile of information constantly turning in Maya's hands, and he didn't feel that he was at a disadvantage in this transaction.

"Master, do you need to prevent the forces of the Black Hand from entering Greenshade Town?" After checking with the information she had and finding no problems, Maya put down the information in her hand and said to Owen.

Maya has no control over Greenshade Town, where General Goblin and Emile are mainly in charge, but she knows the uniqueness of Greenshade Town, so she asked this question.

"You don't need to stop it, as long as you don't make trouble, let them do it." Considering the black hand's expertise in infiltration and intelligence, prevention is meaningless, and it is easy to attract the other party's excessive attention, so Owen said indifferently.

"Understood the master." Maya nodded, but this does not mean that she will allow anyone to enter Greenshade Town. Except for adventurers and non-humans, the black hand must pay a sufficient price to reach in.

Owen didn't know what Maya was thinking, but he really didn't care much, because no matter whether it was Qiutian Town or Lusha Town, as long as it was exposed, the value of existence would only be used to attract other people's attention, that's all.

As long as the progress value keeps recovering, any construction is a repetitive monotonous behavior for Owen, which is of little significance.

Owen's purpose is not to be a powerful lord, nor to rule a country, but to wait, wait for the progress value to break through the upper limit, and wait for the day when he becomes extremely powerful.

For this reason, he doesn't care about the loss of one or two territories. Even if everything he currently owns is destroyed, it's just a start over for Owen.

Building a territory, other than maintaining a high standard of living, passing the time, and making yourself less lonely, really doesn't mean much.

In fact, if Owen hadn't discovered that the breakthrough of the upper limit of the progress value had something to do with the development of the territory, he could have lived in seclusion. Anyway, he didn't need to worry about food and drink at all, so he didn't value the territory as much as Maya thought.

Next, Owen will restart the dungeon project, build new bases, and even set his sights further afield.

The empire is not the first choice. Judging from the information provided by Maya, Emile, and Black Hand, the empire is too deep for him to grasp, even if he creates a legendary warrior like Shire.

A force with legends is only qualified to enter a certain circle, and it is still a newcomer in this circle, because all forces with a few cards have the ability to kill legends, which is the foundation of their long-term foothold.

A mere legendary fighter can only make Owen pay a little attention, and nothing else, unless he produces energy, but unfortunately he still can't do this now.

While Owen was preparing for the next phase of his plan, Little Thumb had already taken over the hotel.

As one of the five fingers, of course the little finger will not only bring Harvey alone. In fact, as early as a month ago, people have entered Akita Town one after another. This time they brought a lot of people, so they quickly took control hostel.

Little Thumb did not replace the hotel staff. Firstly, he could tell that these hotel staff were ordinary people without any training. Secondly, it would be too wasteful for all the staff he brought to do chores, and it would easily cause trouble for others. Therefore, except for a few people, most of them remained the same.

Before the hotel was built, it was considered to be used as an information point, so in addition to the cellar, there are more underground spaces, all of which are open to the little finger without any concealment.

For these places, Little Thumb did not avoid using them. On the contrary, he set up the information center in the underground space of the hotel as he did.

"Master Little Thumb, shall we establish another stronghold?" Harvey has changed from being a criminal to an elite member of Little Thumb's subordinates because of his meritorious deeds and his familiarity with the situation in the Northland. At this time, he proposed with a loyal look, After all, this is not a stronghold established by the black hands themselves, but given by others, and the sense of security is not enough.

"It's not necessary." Little Thumb was personally categorizing the information collected by his subordinates, and rejected Harvey's proposal without even thinking about it.

The reason is simple, he knows that the other party looks down on him.

Although we only met once, and the main object of the discussion was not the other party, Little Finger still keenly sensed how arrogant Hydera III was in his heart.

In the eyes of the other party, not to mention a black hand stronghold, even the entire Qiutian Town, the other party didn't really care about it.

This is simply incomprehensible, and I don't know where the other party's confidence is, but Little Finger doesn't think that his feelings can be wrong. He is a monster who looks gentle but is extremely arrogant in his heart.

Putting the sorted information on the side shelf, the little finger took out a mark from his arms, which was a mark of a fist with only the little finger sticking out.

Harvey was taken aback for a moment, then made a fist with his left hand, stretched out his little finger, with the fist facing his heart, and then stood aside with a serious expression.

Little Thumb didn't hesitate. After standing up, he pressed the imprint on the wall beside him. In a blink of an eye, the complex magic pattern spread out with the imprint as the core, covered the whole wall, and penetrated towards the wall.

When the magic pattern was completely integrated into it, only an inconspicuous palm mark was left on the wall.

This is a special mark that only the five fingers have, and it also means that the little finger regards this place as his information center.

Although the information center is not irreplaceable, its meaning is still different, which shows how much Little Thumb attaches great importance to it.

Almost at the same time, Owen's system, which had not been touched for a long time, suddenly rose up as if he had taken the little blue pill. It immediately broke through the original upper limit. .
