Chapter 258: Divide the Northern Lands
Chapter 253: Divide the Northlands
With the magic lines repaired and the energy supply stabilized under Emily’s maintenance, Owen’s world gate plan could unfold.
It didn’t take long for Owen to build the portal in the square in front of the Big Tree Cave Tavern, and then started selling crossing tickets.
Arriving at other worlds through teleportation is a new thing even for adventurers, in fact, even if it’s a normal cross-region teleportation, most adventurers haven’t experienced it, for one thing it’s rare, for another it’s expensive, so the newly built teleportation gate became a sight to behold, and there is even no lack of unclean hands and feet wanting to get something to go, after all, they’re adventurers, and this can’t be called unclean hands and feet, it can only be said that it’s a part of the adventure, it’s the same as going into a private house and smashing a can and kicking a box. Just like smashing into a private house and kicking a can, it is a necessary process for adventurers.
But the portal is one, and there is a magical barrier, not to mention petty theft, even if the bold to hard also do not want to leave any traces, not to mention that when you think the guards in front of the portal is not dead, touch a hand does not matter, with a knife and a gun when you think the guards do not dare to get killed you do not?
The portal will be revealed, of course, there is a risk, but Owen knows that we must give these adventurers a little bit of hope, or else I don’t know what kind of chaos they will make.
Besides, there are countless precious minerals buried in the mountains, and he alone would have to develop them until the end of time.
Although the adventurers are too much for the dog, but you have to admit that they are extremely talented in the area of treasure hunting to get good things, do not care about buried deep underground or guarded by monsters, they can find a way to get you, as long as you release the task.
Owen has done enough to prepare for this, to provide all the adventurers need, regardless of equipment, skills, knowledge, treasures, mounts or enjoyment, plus two nodes, regardless of the town of Green Shade or the town of the Valley are in his grasp, enough to ensure that the fat water will not flow out, and he only needs to pay a very small price.
Owen even come up with ten quotas per month, can be redeemed with the contribution value of the Green Shade Town Adventurers Guild, which greatly incentivized those adventurers, after all, who do not want to go to see the other world, but also increased their sense of identity of the Green Shade Town Adventurers Guild, a multi-two-two-two punch.
Just when Owen was busy dealing with those energetic adventurers in Green Shade Town, Mara Town entered a state of war readiness.
Mara Town had actually never been lax, after all, it was always facing the onslaught of the chaotic people, plus it had fought with the aberrants once before, so how could it dare to be lax, it wasn’t taking life as a joke.
After a number of expansion, Mara Town can now accommodate thousands of people, while the fence is heightened and reinforced, the archery tower is also transformed into a turret, stationed hundreds of soldiers and horses, enough to fight against three or five times the enemy, if you add the left and right of the two military battalions, no three to five thousand people dare not make a move, and make a move is not necessarily able to win.
But this time the opponent is extraordinary, because it is the regular army.
The so-called regular army is well-trained, uniform equipment.
These two points look simple, but not everyone can do it, let alone on a large scale.
Because of the former need to have enough human resources, but also have to meet the training grounds, food and equipment.
The latter itself represents financial resources, material resources, and production, and without enough power, it is impossible to do so.
Now this group of two to three thousand people, more than a thousand soldiers, knights more than a dozen, the rest are auxiliary soldiers and laborers, in the northern part of the country is already able to change the world a force, but unfortunately met Hydra.
Kerens raised his binoculars, did not see any flag from the enemy formation, nor did he see any symbols, even the knights did not raise the triangular flag and put on their badges, obviously to hide their identity.
But without guessing he knew that these people were either from the border army, or the forces of a certain noble in the empire, which couldn’t wait to start going down to grab the cake.
Kerens now the problem is not to fight or not to fight, but how to fight.
If just came to the two years, the face of the situation in front of him, Kerens how will have a few concerns, but now, he ordered, Mara Town guns like forests, guns like tigers, the existence of the two sides of the military cantonment battalion is like a tiger with wings, just waiting to eat people. Opposite the leading nobles see the face is green, the other side of the full equipment firearms, not to mention, there is the town fortress refused to horse trench, with the hands of the soldiers and horses want to fight down is simply unrealistic, unless it rains or use the bottom card.
If the bottom card can be easily used can still be called bottom card, as for waiting for rain.
The north of the land has little rain, now even more non-rainy season, wait for the rain of this time, the soldiers and horses will be able to eat him poor.
Here is not the empire, supplies rely solely on robbery can not meet the demand, because the north of the people are too few, coupled with the scourge of the chaotic people, are eating people, where the food.
So the big head still relies on the empire’s transportation, but this long distance makes the supplies delivered at most three layers left, the rest are consumed on the way, the transportation cost is too high.
Therefore, if we can’t get a quick decision, this battle will not only be a problem of losing money, maybe we will lose all the family’s money.
After weighing the situation, this mysterious team finally chose to go, through the Nomadic Alliance’s intelligence network, Kerens learned that the other party had struck another north-south transit point similar to Mara Town, and had captured a lot of chaotic people, and was busy with construction.
After reporting this matter, Collens continued to strengthen the vigilance, while increasing the capture of the chaotic people, because he knows that this is just the beginning, with the various forces of the empire to go down, the chaotic people of the Northland has become a fragrant fat meat, who all want to take a bite, do not grasp now, wait for the future to eat all have nothing to eat.
The fact is as Ke Lun Si predicted, the next north of the many inexplicable forces, small hundreds of people, large thousands of people, to the north of the land can fight, can not fight to avoid, to find a piece of feng shui good land to occupy, and then began to scavenge the stragglers to engage in the construction of a I want to contribute to the development of the north of the appearance of a force.
Although these people did not play the name, but each other should know, and very tacit understanding, rarely conflict, unless the interests are too large, or will abide by the rules of first come, first served.
In a short period of time, the Northlands had more than a dozen powerful forces, each of which was not weak, and if not for the fact that they were new to the area and did not have enough depth, each of them was a Northlands Earl to begin with.
Although Owen had the name of Viscount, his strength could not be compared to these forces, so it is not wrong to say that they have the strength of the Count of the Northland.
However, the appearance of these forces also let the Northland quickly calm down, because the influx of chaotic people have been divided, no one natural chaos.
This was a good thing and a bad thing because it represented that the big cake of the Northlands was completely divided.
The various forces of the empire had settled in the Northern Lands, and the next step was the time for fighting.
The problem is how the big brother fight will allow someone to watch, sooner or later to force Owen to choose to stand in line, but once standing in line, on behalf of the party will be subjected to stand in line of infiltration and suppression, as well as in addition to the targeting of all the forces, at that time, outside of the people is not the one who said he is.
Owen expected this, so he chose another way, stood out on behalf of the Northland local nobility side of the force, in the Northland this piece of cake cut a knife.
To do this, he needs to unite with the other two counts of the Northland together to embrace the group, I think they will not stand idly by and watch their half-life’s hard work being devoured by the empire’s hungry wolves.
