Realm of Power

nbsp; "Don't worry, even if you are not worried about being watched, I will be more cautious than you." Hearing Urcondo's hesitant look, Austin Carlos sighed faintly, "Now you want to find fault with me. There are quite a few people out there. Just to avoid those annoying eyes and ears, I took the initiative to submit my resignation.

After hearing Austin Carlos's assurance, Urcondo's eyes drifted to the left and right. There are still more than a dozen people stranded in the hall, and there is the noise of drinking and guessing all around.

"It seems you still don't believe me." Austin Carlos raised his hand slightly. The tavern, which was noisy just now, immediately became quiet and could hear the sound of the cold wind blowing outside.

"Are these your people?"

Urcondo took a deep breath of cold air and opened his mouth in surprise. Now he finally knew why he was discovered. Ever since he stayed in this tavern yesterday, he had been targeted. No wonder Austin Carlos will catch wind of it and come after him immediately

"You all stand down first. I have something to discuss with my friend." Austin Carlos did not respond to him, but ordered in a low and serious voice. The boss, man, and all the people sitting and drinking in the hall stood up at the same time. , all saluted Austin Carlos. These people who were all ordinary just now, now exuded the aura of a warrior.

Urcondo saw a somewhat bald middle-aged man. After everyone exited the hall, he closed the door of the hall from the outside. The light dimmed, and a ray of faint yellow sunlight shone in from the rough glass window.

Urcondo and Austin Carlos were the only two people left in the entire hall. Seeing the unconcealed surprise on Urcondo's face, Austin Carlos smiled confidently.

"They are not my people, they are members of the Pixar tribe. It is a tribe with a small number of people. In the cold northern land, not many people know about them."

"The Pixar tribe? Are they the Pixar tribe known as the North Sea fishermen? I heard that this tribe cruises on the sea all year round. Because they have no fixed territory, they drive their own specially-made boats to wander offshore. They are the oldest tribe attached to this sea area. One of the tribes”

"I didn't expect you to know about Pixar people." Austin Carlos glanced at Urcondo in surprise.

He grinned slightly and said with some emotion, "They are indeed the most familiar people in this sea area. Everyone thinks that I killed the polar bear, the giant beast on the ice, and respect me like a god. But no one knew that at that time I was not the only one who appeared there. A group of Pixar men temporarily docked saved my life.

They worked together to kill the polar bear and stuffed me, who was seriously injured, into the warm polar bear carcass as usual. As a result, by some strange combination of circumstances, I became a hero.

"Later, I specifically requested this fiefdom as my territory, and built this tavern in the territory as a reward for them."

Austin Carlos paused for a moment, sighed, and said in a tragic tone of a hero at the end of his life, "If I hadn't been able to let go of these Pixar people who saved me, I wouldn't stay here. I'd be tired of watching all the seasons." It’s white, don’t you want to see the hills covered with flowers of all colors, the beautiful girls like the grasslands, and the legendary Palaven, the center of the continent, which has as many people as the entire northern cold land?”

Austin Carlos's words deeply touched Urcondo. Yes, in this area with a harsh living environment, I don't know how many people are looking forward to leaving here. At this moment, looking at Austin who was almost pleading in front of him, Carlos Din flashed in his mind the young figure who was back to back with him, fighting to the death against the enemies that were coming like a tide.

"This may be an opportunity to open up the situation in the North Sea"

An idea flashed through Urcondo's mind. After being silent for a while, he finally said, "Okay, what kind of help do you want? If possible, I will do my best to help you."

Urcondo said in a fierce tone, "But if it is some unrealistic idea, then I will go as far as I can, as if I have never met you,

I will only think that Uros is dead. Although I am the general manager of the Northern Cold Region of the Business Alliance, the strength of the Commercial Alliance in the Northern Cold Region is not even the slightest bit different from that in the central and southern regions."

"I must make every decision carefully. I also have my own tribe. They are willing to leave the beautiful grassland and follow me to this bitter cold land. They are not here to seek death." Dragging everyone into disaster"

"As expected, I saw you right. You are still as affectionate as before." Austin Carlos stood up confidently and pointed proudly at the calm sea outside the port outside the window. "You can rest assured, here." This is my territory. I can guarantee you with my reputation that the 20,000 people in this city are my supporters.

I have reduced taxes for them and led them to victory on the battlefield. Any stranger who appears in the city, I will get the news as soon as possible, so people from the city of Austin cannot enter at all," he said bluntly, Everything within a ten-mile radius of Willandra City is within my control."

Austin Carlos waved his hand, curled his lips in disdain, and said contemptuously, "The people in Austin City thought that it would be easy to deal with me after I handed over my troops. They were wrong, big mistake." That's so wrong, they don't know my real trump card at all.

My real power lies in Willandra. From the beginning, I never counted on their charity," Austin Carlos said excitedly. "After two years of operation, I built Willandra into the center of the northern seas. , a thousand elite city guards fully equipped with armor, enough to be a force that can intimidate nearby areas. These soldiers are young people from this city.

They love me so much that even if they fall out with the city of Austin, they will be extremely loyal to me. On the sea, I also have a fleet of 2,000 people. They are the Pixans gathered in the nearby waters. I am a member of the Northern Coast Center. , the only lord who will not drive or whip them, and is willing to let them dock wherever they want, so usually they are just inconspicuous fishermen, but as long as needed, they can become the heroic warriors I need at any time. "

"Since you have been prepared, what else do you need my help for?" Urcando asked with a confused look. "Since you have three thousand elites under your command, they are enough to deal with ordinary situations when the main city cannot be beaten. , unless you raise the flag of rebellion, the city of Austin will use its army to deal with you, so you should be safe."

“If that’s the case, that would be great.”

Austin Carlos said with a wry smile, "If you want an army, you must have weapons. If you want weapons, you need iron ore to forge weapons. Thousand-year-old permafrost in cold areas is often frozen for several meters and is extremely hard. Not to mention mining, even if you want to It is very difficult to dig a pit. An army of 3,000 people would require more than 10,000 kilograms of iron ore.

Even the main city of Austin can only assemble about 10,000 people with sophisticated equipment. Except for the Royal City Guards, the other armies are almost all simple leather armors. Not to mention me, a little Willandra, Zuo Pin. You Minato, I have only equipped a thousand people, and the other 2,000 people don’t even have weapons."

"If it's just iron ore, the quantity is not large, so I can think of a way." Urcondo nodded and said, secretly breathing a sigh of relief. Iron ore is not a rare commodity for the business alliance.

Just because of the severe cold in the North, generally no businessmen are willing to come, but if the business alliance comes forward, as long as the price is right, it is not difficult to get a batch of iron ore.

"Really, can you help me get a batch of high-quality iron ore for forging weapons?" Austin Carlos looked at Urcondo with bright eyes. Although he knew that the business alliance was powerful in the inland area, but that I just heard about it. Seeing Urcando's generous promise, I couldn't help but said with some excitement, "

"How much iron ore do you want?" Urcondo asked hesitantly.

"If it can be more than 5 kilograms, I will pay the corresponding price," Austin Carlos said with a somewhat uncertain tone.

"I don't need money, but I need a secret port that can dock ships." Urcondo said with a solemn expression. "If the city of Austin knows that we are dealing in private, they will definitely classify us as enemies. They may not I will deal with you immediately, but I will definitely deal with me. I can’t let everyone take risks with me.”

"There is no problem. There is a lonely island 20 miles east of the Willandra Sea. It was once the residence of the Pixar people. Although the port is smaller, it is difficult to be discovered. If we proceed If it is expanded, it can be enough to dock ordinary heavy merchant ships. Now I will hand over the power of that small island to you in the name of the lord. Even the city of Austin will not know where it is." Austin Carlos looked delighted. Said impatiently

"Is it a lonely island east of Willandra? What an unexpected surprise." Unlike Austin Carlos' joy, Urcondo was also filled with joy.

Expanding power in the northern seas and acquiring a port at the right time were Fatty's main tasks when he was sent to the north. It seemed easy, but in fact it was difficult to actually execute it.

This is not the inland where the main forces of the business alliance are located, and there is no businessman's power to rely on.

It is not easy to obtain a port on the northern coast that is tightly controlled by the Austins, relying only on the empty airs of a northern leader of the Commercial Alliance.

Now I finally have a chance to let go.

‘Okay, it’s a deal.’ Urcando agreed happily, and according to the habits of people from the northern cold regions, he and Austin Carlos took a sip of wine (To be continued)
