The strongest lord system

Chapter 216 Troubles in the New Territory
"Okay, today's business is almost over, Ke Luo, go to my city lord's mansion to rest tonight, anyway, I have quite a lot of rooms there, and I will send you back to Haiyu city by boat tomorrow, anyway, we are going by water now It's pretty fast too." Allen said to Ke Luo beside him as he walked.

"That's troublesome, Lord Allen." Ke Luo said with a smile.

Soon they returned to the City Lord's Mansion in the dark. Looking at the gate of the acquaintance, he smiled and said: "It can be regarded as going home. Emily, after we finish dinner, you give to the City Lord Ke Luo Tidy up a room and come out."

"Yes. Master, I have ordered dinner to be ready." Emily said next to him.

"Well, let's go in."

After a hearty meal, Ke Luo also went down to rest.There are only Alan, Karen, Karl and others left in the hall.

Allen wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said, "Okay, let's go to my office. We're going to make a summary of this time, and arrange things later."

"Ok."

When he came to Allen's office, Allen found that his office was very clean, with almost no dust.It seems that Emily often cleans this office for herself during her absence.

Allen walked to the middle of the garden, he took out a relatively new map, spread it on the table and said: "This is the map of our southern border that I took from the imperial capital. This map is better than the ones we keep. It’s much more detailed. Come and have a look.”

Several people leaned over one after another.

Allen looked at the map and said: "You all know my reward this time, it is the title of earl, and the fiefdom."

"The fief is such a large area." Allen gestured on the map with his hand, drawing a very large circle.

Carl said in surprise: "It's so big, it's more than ten times the size of our current Stormwind City territory."

But Karen on the side, he quickly found something wrong, he frowned and said: "Master, this fiefdom is not right. Why is there a large area of ​​mountains, and there are some places that no human beings have ever been to?" place."

Allen said with a faint smile: "Yes. Our territory can be said to be the largest piece of the empire now. But..." Allen continued in a deep voice: "But almost most of them are mountainous areas that we cannot build at all now, or even We don't even know what's out there."

"By the way, Madoran and the others ran out of the Tiantian Mountains before. They said that there is a kingdom of dwarves in it. We don't know where they are exactly." Carl exclaimed.

Allen shook his head and said: "I also thought about the kingdom of the dwarves, but I think their location should be quite far from us, maybe even further west. So we don't have to think about it now. And since we can't develop this mountainous area now, then we can only focus on those places where we can develop." As he spoke, Allen's finger landed on the westernmost part of the previously drawn territory.

"Where?" Karen shook his head suspiciously and said, "The place you are referring to is a lot of mountains away from us, and that location seems to be the border of the orcs. It's almost winter now..."

"Let's not talk about that first, let me tell you some characteristics of this place." Allen said slowly: "It is the only place in our territory where we can develop. We don't want to worry about traffic problems. There used to be A very famous name 'Silver Moon City', but because of many things, it became the current desert city. It is said that a large area there is desert without any resources. Even the empire almost forgot that there is That piece of territory is gone, and the previous lords who were sent there didn't take long because of various reasons."

"Then it's useless, what do we need it for? Isn't that a waste of our energy." Karen said.

Karl on the side also said softly: "This is really unfair. This war is almost won by the city lord. It is too much to give us such a reward that we have almost no reward."

Allen chuckled and said, "This reward is not something we can decide, and we can't defy a country's thinking. Let's think about this place. Although this place is useless, but..."

There was a gleam of light in Alan's eyes, and he said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "But here is the population we are most lacking now. According to the information I got in the imperial capital, there are at least more than [-] people in that place. Humans, and other races as well, can be said to be a thriving place."

"Since there are no resources there, why are there so many people there?" Karen said suspiciously.

Allen smiled and said: "Because as far as I know, there is a huge slave trade transit place, or a trade transit place, where many races trade with each other, including orcs, humans, etc. , so that place is actually full of potential for development.”

Karen pondered for a while and said: "There are a lot of people there, and this is something that our Stormwind City is in urgent need of. But the problem is how we can communicate with that place, or control that place. You too Having said that there are many races gathered there, they will allow us, who came suddenly, to control it. With our current ability alone, it is difficult for us to become enemies with a place where so many forces have gathered. And it is still a border Orcs, orcs are very warlike, if they attack us, it will be very difficult for us to resist."

Allen nodded and said: "This is a problem, so we need to think of some good solutions. But the first point before that is that we need to find a safe and convenient way to get there. If we even get there If it is difficult, talk about controlling there."

Allen gestured on the map with his hand and said: "I know how many roads lead there. One of them was the avenue in the mountains that existed before but disappeared for some reason. Now There should be only one rough and difficult trail left, so it is a poor choice for us, and that road has not been walked for a long time, even the orcs are unwilling to come from there to attack us, so it is a shame One can imagine that road should not be suitable for large troops to travel."

With that said, Allen gestured down to the position of the ocean and said; "The second way is that we can go from the Mosao River to the sea in the south, use large ships to go by sea to the orc territory, and then go to the silver Moon City."

"Sea route? But we don't have large ships at all now, and the sea..." Carl swallowed and said, "The sea is really too dangerous, especially the deep sea area. It is rumored that there are various underwater monsters there."

Allen nodded. He knew this. Few people on this continent were willing to go to the deep sea area. Even several countries with navies were active in the shallow sea area, because the deep sea area was too big. Mysterious, too dangerous.Maybe when a big wave will kill your life in the deep sea.

"So we don't advocate this road very much. Other than that, it's a relatively long, but very safe road. This road is where we go all the way to the western border of our empire, and detour from there, but it takes time It's very long, it can be said to be two or three times as long as the previous two roads." Allen sighed.

"So, we can now say that there is almost no way to get there quickly and safely." Karen said with a frown.

Allen nodded: "It's like this, but we can't just give up such a good place. I think we can conduct more field investigations, maybe we can find a new way."

"However, this is really time-consuming." Carl said.

"Now, we have more time. Because of the Silvermoon City, we don't need to support those cities that have been infested by orcs this winter. Moreover, our southern border is relatively safe because of the sea and mountains. We have a long time to discuss." Allen said, he knew that this was very difficult, but he would not easily let go of such a big 'food', in front of his own eyes, not tempted.

"Okay, we..." Just when Alan was about to say something, the door of the office was suddenly knocked violently.

Allen frowned, who would be so anxious to find herself at this time, if it was Emily, she shouldn't be so anxious.

Allen walked over and slowly opened the door.

Outside the door, Madoran was panting continuously, his face was dark and very sloppy.

"Madolan, why are you here?" Allen said a little surprised.

"City Master...City Master, hurry up and follow me. We have researched... a good thing." It seems that Madoran is very excited.

"What is it?" Allen asked suspiciously.

"Follow me to the Weapons Department, and you will know. Carl, please come and have a look." After speaking, Madoran dragged Alan to run outside.

Karen said to Carl and the others in doubt, "Why did Madoran come out suddenly, and still look so excited?"

Carl followed up and said, "Anyway, let's follow up and take a look."
