Chapter 991
991 Agreement (1)
The leader of the Somers was a little surprised by Tang Zhen’s request.
Before he had come, he had already guessed what kind of requests the otherworldly demons would make and had already planned out the countermeasures.
As long as it wasn’t too much, he had the right to agree to it and temporarily stabilize the other party.
Using the time they had won, the Somers could calmly lay out their plans and maximize their benefits!
In other words, before the Somers came into contact with the Holy Dragon City, they were prepared to pay a price.
In the end, Tang Zhen only made such a simple request, which made the leader of the Somers a little uncertain. He wondered if the otherworldly demons were also perfunctory.
However, on second thought, the other party really didn’t need to do this.
In the face of such a benefit that came right to their doorstep, the Holy Dragon City would naturally grasp it and obtain what they were determined to get.
As for asking for something useless to hide his true goal, it was not impossible, but it was very unlikely.
But if that was the case, the otherworldly demons must have a bigger plan, and the SOMO people had to reconsider their countermeasures.
Once it was confirmed that the otherworldly demons had the intention to invade the continent, the Somers would have to get rid of this outsider first, even if it would be more troublesome or even if they had to change their original plan.
With the existence of such an unstable factor, the Somers could not sleep or eat in peace.
In a short time, many thoughts flashed through The Mind of the Leader of the SOMO people. Finally, he returned to how to collect soul stones for the Holy Dragon City.
For the natives of this continent, although the Soul Stone was a very precious item, it was not to the extent of starting a war.
Therefore, if the otherworldly Demon tribe, who had caused the entire continent to be in turmoil, had really come for this reason, it would be really a reason that made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
However, he was also clear that different items would have different values in different places. A gra.s.s in land a could very likely be a treasure in land B!
Perhaps to these otherworldly demons, this kind of Soul Stone had an extremely important function.
After figuring out the Holy Dragon city’s requirements, the chief of the Somers became much more relaxed. At least in his opinion, the mission this time was basically completed successfully.
Perhaps for the Aboriginals on the continent, soul stones were not everywhere, and their reserves were quite limited. However, for the Somers who had once defeated the Empire, they were not too precious.
As spoils of war from back then, there were still a large number of soul stones stored in the SOMO people’s treasure vault. Some of them could be taken out and used to buy Holy Dragon City.
Of course, if he wanted something from the somersaults, he had to give something in return.
since you have such a strong desire for soul stones, my clan can naturally give you a batch.
At this point, the leader of the Somers paused for a moment before he continued, ” “Of course, the value of spirit stones is not low. If you want too much, we can’t do anything.
However, if you are willing to part with your treasures and give us a few of the battle puppets at the village entrance, then when we return, I can use this as an excuse to have my clansmen gather more for you. What do you think?”
Tang Zhen laughed when he heard this. He secretly thought that this fellow had indeed taken a fancy to his armed robot. Now, he was using a different method to ask for it.
However, this deal could really be done once.
Although the cost of making armed robots was high, it was undoubtedly many times lower than the cost of soul stones. Moreover, it would be a miracle if the indigenous cultivators could figure out how to study such a technological weapon in the hands of them!
In fact, as long as Tang Zhen gave an order, those armed robots would immediately stop working and become a pile of expensive sc.r.a.p iron!
So, since the leader of the Somers had asked, he naturally agreed.
Both parties fulfilled their wishes and naturally, it was a happy ending!
In the following conversation, both sides put forward some requests and opinions, and at the same time, signed an agreement.
According to the demands of the Somers, the Holy Dragon City should try not to take the initiative to start a war with the native forces, except for the sake of self-defense, so as to avoid causing a war on the mainland.
The Somers, who had long regarded the continent as their own, did not want to take over a wasteland after taking control of the continent, which would undoubtedly reduce their interests.
At the same time, the Somers would also take action to reduce the hostility of the indigenous forces towards Holy Dragon City as much as possible. They might even give up on attacking Holy Dragon City!
With the influence of the Somers on the continent, it was not difficult to do so.
The Somers would not restrict some of the Holy Dragon city’s movements on the continent. They could even provide some special help at certain times.
In addition, if necessary, the Holy Dragon City had to cooperate with the Somers to attack some native forces, and the reward would be calculated separately.
It was obvious that they were planning to use the Holy Dragon City as a hatchet man to uproot the local forces that were hostile to the Somers. However, since the Somers would pay, Tang Zhen would not refuse.
He could even take advantage of such an opportunity to carry out some operations in secret and avoid the eyes and ears of the Somers.
The above content was the result of the discussion between Tang Zhen and the leader of the Somers.
After the discussion, the leader of the Somers left in a hurry, ready to go back and meet the real power of the Somers.
He was only a representative, so whether this contract would be carried out or not would depend on the att.i.tude of those in power.
After sending off the chief of the Somers, Tang Zhen got up and walked slowly toward Stone City.
Although he had a terrifying nuclear weapon, Tang Zhen did not have an easy time.
Unless it was a last resort, Tang Zhen would not use this kind of inferior method that was not beneficial to both parties. However, Tang Zhen was indeed feeling more and more strained as he faced the increasing number of native forces.
Tang Zhen and the thousand-odd Holy Dragon City cultivators alone were simply unable to stop the demon-slaying Alliance Army, which was approaching the snow-covered territory. The total number of troops had already exceeded a hundred thousand!
After all, there were many native cultivators in the Alliance Army. Their overall strength far exceeded Tang Zhen and the others.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, the Holy Dragon City would definitely lose.
Therefore, Tang Zhen chose to occupy the land and not take the initiative to attack after some consideration. He wanted to find a way to reverse this disadvantageous situation.
Fortunately, at this critical moment, the Somers had taken the initiative to jump out, which made Tang Zhen feel a lot more relaxed.
As one of the overlords of this world, the power of the Somers could not be underestimated.
With the power of the Somers, they could at least block many enemies for Holy Dragon City. At the same time, with the help of the Somers, Holy Dragon city’s movements on the continent would be much more convenient.
As for the contract just now, it was just an exchange of interests. No one was at a loss, and no one was at an advantage.
Perhaps the Somers thought that they could use the contract to temporarily stabilize the Holy Dragon City, but they did not know that the Holy Dragon city’s true goal was actually the power of this world’s origin!
However, the power of the origin of this world was a little special. For some unknown reason, it had its own consciousness and then evolved into all kinds of G.o.ds!
If the Holy Dragon City wanted to obtain the world’s origin, they had to kill these G.o.ds. There was no other way.
This wasn’t a good thing, because compared to collecting the world’s origin under normal circ.u.mstances, fighting with the world’s origin that had evolved into a native G.o.d would undoubtedly be much riskier!
However, this was the truth. Tang Zhen was not allowed to be picky. The matter that he needed to consider was how to successfully achieve his goal.
If the native forces were to obstruct them during this process, Tang Zhen did not mind using b.l.o.o.d.y means to let them know what kind of existence the Holy Dragon City was!
On the way back, the corner of Tang Zhen’s mouth revealed a trace of a smile as he looked at the whirlpool that was getting bigger and bigger in the stone city.
Perhaps it wouldn’t take long for his tower to descend!
