The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 655 Concession
  "...Since my tribe and I opened up the Cator Mountains, the most friction between our tribes in the north has been caused by the fact that the adventurers of several tribes have no rules and fight for the output of the mountains."

"For this reason, our three tribes have established a court mechanism between the two fortresses and shared some of the powers of the various tribes. This can calm down the conflicts and frictions between the middle and lower-ranking tribesmen of the three tribes."

"So when we were adventuring in the Cator Mountains, could we members of the Ring of Thorns organization also formulate appropriate and reasonable mechanisms to restrain the people of our respective tribes and reduce our internal friction and accumulation of conflicts?"

“I have been thinking about this issue since very early!!”

"According to the practice of the wilderness, the radiation range of our Green Field tribe's strength includes the Cator Mountains. This means that any collecting or adventurous behavior without the consent of our Green Field tribe will be discovered by the warriors of our tribe. You can stop it with your hands."

"But judging from the current situation in the Cator Mountains, it is extremely difficult to stop foreign adventurers from operating in the mountains. Since even foreign adventurers can't be stopped, no matter what I ask you to restrain your tribesmen, don't bother us. It seems unreasonable to come to our tribe’s territory to collect resources and materials from our territory.”

"But everyone, just because we don't talk doesn't mean that your people can do it without any scruples!!"

"I won't talk about things that are too far away. I will just say that in the past year, the adventure teams of the Urok clan have fought at least eighteen times with the adventure teams of my three clans in the mountains because of various resources; and the Argan clan. There are twenty-one adventure teams..."

The heads of several tribes in the field could not hide their embarrassment on their faces, but some of them quickly stopped and their expressions returned to calm. It seemed that they were really thick-skinned.

What Allen said was indeed what happened in reality, and no one could refute it. However, what no one expected was that Allen would lay it out here.

Just as everyone looked at each other and thought about how to defend themselves, Allen's voice sounded again.

"Of course, I'm not saying this now to accuse you, I just want you to see the facts clearly. If things continue to develop like this in the future, I can't guarantee whether I can still suppress the hatred of the brats under me. !!”

"Now that a problem has arisen, we all have to find a way to solve it, right?"

"So how to solve it?"

Allen looked around, but no one could give an answer.

The Cator Mountains stretch for thousands of miles from east to west and hundreds of miles from north to south. Just because the terrain is dangerous and no valuable resources have been discovered, the tribal forces before the Green Field Tribe took control of the Cator Fortress would often It is regarded as useless and allowed to grow naturally.

After all, if the income from the two fortresses that choked the prosperous trade road was enough to make a tribe fat and strong, then why would they have to do thankless things.

Adventurers from the outside often come from the dangerous environment inside, as well as the ordinary output that is not special. Although people often come in and out of the mountains, they have not formed an industry on a large scale. This is how it has been over the years.

Until the Green Field Tribe took control of the fortress and built a wide road on the edge of the mountains. The supply points, rest houses and other facilities along the way should be complete. In addition, the tribe issued various explorations through the city lord's palace and the mayor's hall. The task is to encourage the warriors of this tribe to develop the mountains.

As the resources hidden deep in the mountains are gradually discovered and gradually reach a certain scale, there will naturally be more industrial chains that can be attached to the mountain collection, exploration and other systems. Then adventurers who want to make a living through this Naturally, they came in droves.

After all, the Cator Mountains can be considered a primitive area that has not been developed for many years. It is rich in natural resources and is definitely much stronger than each ethnic group's own territory. Not to mention that the tribes that have always controlled the mountains have a laissez-faire attitude towards these places, so that adventurers do not have to worry about offending the local tribes, or being coveted for the resources they collect, etc.

The leaders of the various tribes present must also know that their family members' coming here to take risks and collect resources not only reduces the pressure on the tribe, but also collects a lot of resources for the tribe. If they rashly agree to ban the tribesmen from coming to Cato, I am afraid that many people in the clan will be resentful of requests such as adventure in the Ershan Mountains.

Anyway, the loser is the Green Field Tribe, and the other tribes present are considered to have vested interests. Even if the benefits are just trivial, no one will let go easily.

"Chief Allen, our tribe is the landowner. Let's listen to your opinions first. If appropriate, I will definitely cooperate with your request and let the tribe put things in order when I get back."

Zolf's words were beautiful in the scene, but in fact they were cunning, and the content of his words had no actual value.

"Hehehe."

Allen smiled slightly. He had already anticipated the current situation, so he would not be angry at all.

"I have discussed with Maggot Eyes and the others. Our three tribes are willing to maintain the current situation and allow adventure teams from all tribes to operate in the Cator Mountains. However, necessary rules must still be established. This is why I invite you all to come this time. Reasons for attending regular meetings.”

"The current position of the Ring of Thorns organization is somewhat embarrassing. In addition to handling frictions between various races and mediating conflicts among our members, it has no other role."

"Although this was our original intention when we created this organization, such a large investment only yields such a small return. As the main investors, the senior leaders of our three tribes all feel that we are at a loss."

"It just so happens that the chaos in the Cator Mountains is getting more and more serious. I think it is not appropriate for the collective organization of the Ring of Thorns to come forward to create a stable adventure environment?"

"Chief Allen, is this necessary??"

Fundy interjected and asked.

"Is necessary!!"

Allen replied calmly.

"Our three tribes have decided to develop the eastern foot of the mountain range at the same time. In the future, we plan to build a fortress castle at a suitable location on the eastern foot to facilitate the rest and supplies of adventurers. If you are interested, everyone can participate, but There will be a difference in how you participate, which is to participate as a Ring of Thorns, rather than as a separate clan."

"Can I ask, what can we get by doing this?" Fendi and Schfinch made eye contact, and then one of them asked, and Zolf, who was sitting next to them, was about to open his mouth when he heard the lizard man After taking the body temperature, he closed his mouth again.

"What everyone can get is the corresponding income collected through the management of adventurers."

"For example, the adventurers coming in and out of our Cattor Mountains are a mixed bag now. No one knows whether there are robbers and thugs who specialize in stealing money. If we can register the adventurers who come in and out, unregistered adventures Those who enter the mountains will be deemed as infringing upon the interests of our three tribes and can be directly killed and captured."

"Adventurers who want to register will naturally have to pay a certain registration fee. This is one of the benefits."

"At the same time, adventurers who enter and exit Donglu Castle for supplies and rest also need to pay city entry tax, which is also part of the income; there are also the sales of supplies for the fortress, the harvesting of resources obtained by adventurers, etc., etc., are also... …”

"Do we only need to join in the name of the Ring of Thorns to participate? Are there any other costs?"

Zolf still didn't think that Allen, a bugbear, would be so kind as to share such a big piece of cake, so he asked with caution.

"That must be conditional, that is, in the future, our Ring of Thorns members in the alliance need to keep the same pace as long as it does not harm the interests of our clan. If we have differences or opinions on a certain matter, , first of all, it needs to be resolved through internal discussions within the organization, and only after it is determined that the interests of individual tribes are indeed in conflict with the interests of other tribes can they act freely."

The main show finally came, and several other tribal leaders looked surprised. However, compared with their preparations to deal with Allen, when Allen actually made this request, everyone was a little moved.

Allen, who started from a young age, knows very well that when cooperating with others or trying to win over other tribes, the most reliable thing is not the so-called alliance contract, personal relationship, or strong strength, but the common interests of each other.

When the two have common interests, each other will have a solid foundation, and then through certain external means, such a relationship can develop long-term and firmly.

Today's Ring of Thorns can only be regarded as a fragile bond. It is good to maintain everyone's daily relationship, but if you want everyone to give up their original camp choices and original interests, you can only rely on this relationship to support them. Allen, tied to a rope with him, is obviously an unrealistic fact.

Although, with Allen's current demigod strength, there is an alliance of three tribes that has been basically integrated behind him and is almost a community. In the north, except for the foreign drow federation, there are few other forces that can compete.

Therefore, after the rational Allen convinced Maggot Eyes and Tim, he decided to add chips to the Ring of Thorns organization and give everyone an attractive cake to impress everyone.

"I have a question."

Zolf finally spoke, frowning slightly.

"Even if you decide to develop the eastern foothills of the Cator Mountains, how long will it take to achieve scale and effects? How much initial investment is required?"

"Let me correct you first, it's not 'you', it's all of us together."

Allen raised his hand and clicked a few times in Zolf's direction, making a loud sound.

"There is never a free lunch in the world. If you want to participate in the development and benefits of the eastern foothills of the Cator Mountains, then everyone must be consistent in the early investment and development!!"

"As for the time issue, it depends on your vision!! If you only care about the immediate benefits, then this project is indeed not a good project. According to our accumulated experience at Greenfield, if you start from scratch to lay It will take at least ten years to complete the roads and subsequent castle facilities, and finally form a stable flow of adventurers."

"But if everyone takes a long-term view and is not eager for quick success, once Donglu starts to officially make profits, the steady flow of resources, adventure income, etc. will be worth at least half of the income of each of your tribes."

"So, I am just making suggestions on how you can choose, and I will never force you to do so!!"

Allen's serious tone echoed in the conference hall, and his eyes were particularly sharp. He slowly swept in front of everyone. The 7-8 leaders of various tribes around him fell into deep thought under Allen's gaze. .

Obviously, Allen said that he would not force everyone, but in fact he used this incident as an opportunity to force everyone to make a choice: whether to decide to participate in something that will definitely have good benefits in the future, and to tie it to Allen. , or gave up participating in the action, and was targeted and suppressed by Allen from then on.

"Ellen, I am definitely willing to join!!"

"Chief Allen, we are responsible for this matter. If you need anything, just speak."

At this time, the two medium-sized tribal leaders, Nigel and Ted, came into play. The two legendary strong men who had been silent before and had no sense of presence, just when the other legendary leaders of the three tribes were still hesitating, loudly Indicate their attitudes and choices.

The Heart of the Wild was originally a vassal of the Green Field Tribe. In the future, Nigel wanted to use the power of the Green Field to join the alliance after his own tribe's conditions were met. It was certainly impossible for him to go against Alan Chang at this time. And Ted was helpless. Although the dark elves did not completely turn to the Green Field tribe, most of their daily expenses had to rely on the Green Field channels. At the same time, their territory was sandwiched by the Green Field, so they did not dare to easily Offended Allen.

Of course, even if these two legendary leaders express their opinions, they will not be of great help to Allen. After all, they have not yet met the conditions to join the alliance. Even with their support, there will be no feedback in the alliance.

Fendi and Schfinch, the two lizard men leaders, kept meeting their eyes, and occasionally they would come together to discuss in a low voice. And Zolf's face was full of struggle. At least for him, the road ahead of Allen really bothered him.

Unlike the two lizardman tribes, they don't like to get involved in the alliance's camp struggles, so no matter what they choose this time, they will take it easy. As a member of the Kobold family, Urok naturally has a great relationship with the Pale Night tribe. In addition, Da Vinci, as the strongest being in the Kobold family, is also the biggest idol and pride in the hearts of most Kobold warriors. , the kobolds of Urok are no exception.

The only thing that makes Zolf feel lucky is that the sphere of influence of Pale Night is basically in the central area of ​​the wilderness. Because the distance to the north is too far, Urok only maintains a friendly relationship with the Pale Night clan, but it can still be considered It is not the core of the camp of the saint named Da Vinci.

Even if he turns to support Allen this time because of Allen's shock and temptation, Pale Night is beyond his reach and has nothing to do with his own tribe.
