Struggle in the Steam Age - Chapter 670
Nora returned to Sauer Island this time for only one purpose, and that was to complete the important ascension ceremony and begin to learn to master certain powers that only gods have.
Although there are indeed some **** guys in this world who have bad luck, such as someone who turns into a **** after inexplicably picking up a godhead.
But most of the existences encountered very strict tests when they crossed this threshold, such as the attacks of certain opponents, or some kind of test from the world.
Therefore, it is very important for these existences to choose a reasonable place at the time of breakthrough. Because if the place is not selected correctly, it is likely to be a fatal blow at a critical time.
Although Lawrence’s house on the island is indeed a building with top defense power on the island, it can be said that it is still fragile in the face of this situation.
For Nora who was preparing to hold her own **** ascension ceremony, these defenses were not much different from no defense at all. On the contrary, she will be restrained because the place is too close to the crowded area.
More importantly, these places are all located on the seashore, and it is easy to be included in their attack range by enemies who infiltrate from outside the island.
So after careful consideration, Nora simply chose the Blue Mountain area, which seems to be defenseless, but has a large area and complex terrain, which is sparsely populated, so that it can be easier to deal with anything that should happen. .
And the clergy and church staff who sent Nora back to the island can be considered familiar with this kind of things.
Because those Orthodox churches often have some saints who will hold this kind of ascension ceremony, so after Nora entered the Blue Mountains located in the central part of the island, these clergy who knew that the gods they served had recognized Nora’s existence also Then came to the blue mountain and began to deploy defenses.
At the beginning, the Bayer steward, as the chief of the island, also wanted to mobilize the army to help enter the grassland under the Blue Mountains and enter a defensive state, but was later dissuaded by church members.
Because the members of the church believe that if fighting really breaks out in these core areas, it should be very fierce. Those ordinary people and even low-level transcendents who are not prepared for it are not very suitable for being involved in such cruelty even middle-to-high-level transcendents. In the war.
Therefore, under the persuasion of these church members, the army on Sauer Island did not enter the Blue Mountain Meadow area for defense. Instead, they chose to be scattered on the island’s coastlines and stationed separately ~www.mtlnovel.com~Collect red envelopes] Pay attention to public.. public accounts [Book Friends Base Camp~www.mtlnovel.com~ draw up to 888 cash red envelopes!
According to those experienced church members, in addition to some high-level transcendents who may attack, there are also many low-level monsters that will also attack the island after being attracted. Therefore, the army of these ordinary people can intercept low-level enemies.
More importantly, this scattered army will stop most of the low-level enemies while blocking the main points, but also miss the high-level enemies.
. In this way, they will not suffer mass casualties because of joining wars that do not belong to them in the first place.
Indeed, the army on Sauer Island can do so when facing a powerful enemy, it can never back down before getting an order, and stick to its oath to fight to the death.
But in this apparently unnecessary situation, everyone did not want this elite force to be consumed in vain on the battlefield.
“I didn’t expect that little guy Nora would face such a severe situation.” After listening to Lawrence’s explanation, Syfiel sighed and said.
She had a very good relationship with the little doll in the previous relationship, so at this time, Syfiel naturally subconsciously felt a little worried about the little doll.
“After all, this is a **** ascension ceremony. Although Nora will not become a **** even after completing this ceremony, she has taken an important step in transforming a mortal into a god.” Lawrence sighed in the same way.
“As far as I know, if this ceremony can be carried out smoothly, Nora’s level will have a very obvious improvement, and relative to the benefits of the promotion, the need to bear this level of risk is naturally acceptable.”
Soon, the time came to the next day, and I have to say that for most people, interest is the thing that most mobilizes people’s enthusiasm.
Because in just one night, almost all the aristocratic territories around New Sauer Island expressed their willingness to cooperate, and those colonial governors who belonged to the territories directly under certain countries also expressed that they would reply after requesting the mainland.
“I have never seen this group of people move so fast.” Seeing the telegrams being sent over, Syfiel said to Lawrence with emotion while translating the telegrams.
“It seems just like you said, even the dull people will move faster when facing benefits.” She said, holding up a telegram and said.
“You see, this Baron Pierce is a typical example. Last time we hoped to obtain the right to use their port and it took a full two weeks to get it done, but now it took him only one night to complete the summary and send it to us. Statistics of all products available for sale on the island.”
“Isn’t this normal?” Lawrence said with a smile and shrugged.
“Don’t look at when we asked them to do some things, they used to pretend that the lord was older and the approval speed was slower to prevaricate us. But in this situation where we can see more money, I can guarantee them ‘S movements are faster than the great guy in his twenties.”
“It sounds a bit helpless, but this is life.” Saifei finally concluded, “Although I still don’t get used to their approach, they have also helped us a lot from another point of view. A favor.”
The reason why Syfiel said this is also very simple, because after these noble lords have counted all the special products on their own territory, the difficulty for Lawrence and the others to make the next step is naturally greatly reduced.
Especially with the help of Shumei, they only took a day to summarize all the data and obtained specific data on the production of the various territories of New Sauer Island.
It’s just that on the next issue of coordinating how much goods each territory produces, it took more than three days for everyone to discuss it before reluctantly reaching a temporary basic agreement.
In this agreement, everyone divides the proportion of each person’s shipments and content in the following trade according to a series of content such as strength, the number and type of goods produced in the territory.
Of course ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Lawrence considered was the reason for the initiator of this agreement, so he also received a lot of remuneration. If the territory’s own quota is added, he will get a quarter of the market in this trade. Share.
However, the reason why everyone is willing to give up these shares is that Lawrence’s talent is the core of this cross-regional trade, and another important reason is that the goods he sells are unique and do not compete with others.
To give the simplest example, Lawrence has only a small amount of food for sale because he needs to supply the surrounding islands. Therefore, the goods he trades now mainly come from the drugs produced by those drug research centers and hospitals.
Compared with food, the space and tonnage of these drugs in transportation are very scarce, but the value is much higher than those of food.
Therefore, in this case, New Sauer Island can free up more tonnage for people in other territories, and this is why those people are willing to let Lawrence occupy more shares.
More importantly, drugs can be regarded as core necessities in all regions. In addition to making money, selling these drugs that are clearly effective in the market can also leave a very good reputation in this area.
