Edge of the Apocalypse

The First Thousand and Eleventh Chapters Shopping Mall Iron Rules

Twilight crawled slowly through the woodland, standing in the afterglow of dusk, Fares glanced at Rick next to him and said, "What do you think?"

"Well-trained, as far as I can see, the Bucks in Sardinia are not as efficient. How did Lord Allen build such an army..." Rick sighed softly, and he and France Reis was just in charge of selecting the site for the camp. But setting up the camp, sawing wood and making fire were all in charge of the guards that Edward brought from Dawn Castle.

The soldiers selected by Shanwang, Cunhuo and the regular infantry battalion cooperated tacitly and had a clear division of labor. It didn't take much time to build a perfect temporary camp. This kind of efficiency, the two Fares have only seen in the regular army of the empire, but they have never seen any leading private army that can be trained so neatly. Seeing the big from the small, even a guard is like this, the strength of the army in Allen's hands can be seen.

If it is purely based on combat power, it may already be comparable to the regular army of the Empire. Among them, those warriors who were born as mountain kings, the power they displayed when they felled trees made Fares even more impressed. The head of the mercenary regiment secretly reckoned that the soldiers of the Mountain King alone might be comparable to the Violent Bear Army in the Grizzly Bear Armored Army. Among the Bear Armor Army, the Violent Bear Army is the elite army, and the strategic tasks they are responsible for are mostly such work as breaking through the formation, which is not an easy task.

At this time, the soldiers of the guards had already started to make a fire and prepare dinner. Fares pulled Larrick, and the two were about to join hands. Suddenly Fares stopped and turned to look towards the dense forest behind the camp. Rick was a little slower than him before he felt the aura of a beast looming in that direction. Rick looked, the sun has almost set the earth. The setting sun bloomed its last bright light on the west side of the tree line, but the light of the dense forest behind the camp was terribly dim, forming a strong contrast.

In the darkness, an aura of ferocious beasts could be seen faintly. It seemed that at any moment, a terrifying beast would rush out of the forest. Fares made a gesture, asking Rick to take precautions. Suddenly a figure emerged from that direction, it was Allen.

Allen seemed to be dragging something in his hand, and it took a while for Fares to see clearly. Behind him was a mountain wild boar the size of a calf. The big guy didn't move at all.

(This chapter is not over, please turn the page) It looks like it is dead, but the breath on its body has not completely dissipated, which shows how vigorous this thing was when it was alive. The young Abel was walking beside Allen with an excited expression on his face. Seeing the camp boy galloping over, he kept shouting from a long distance: "There is wild boar to eat tonight!"

Back at the camp, Allen handed over the mountain wild boar to Fares and the soldiers to deal with. The big wild boar was quickly skinned in their hands. Rick took the sword and took off the four hooves of the wild boar in a skillful way. The most meaty pig body was taken by the soldiers from the nearby stream. After washing, Fares rubbed salt all over the wild boar. Finally, the soldiers set up the wild boar and roasted the whole pig on the fire.

Alan washed his hands, walked between Lucy and the others, and sat on a dead tree trunk, looking like he was waiting to eat. Edward came over,

Sitting next to him, he said: "The harvest in the Dark Land this time is quite satisfactory. After arriving in Sardinia, Sean and the others will go to the local chamber of commerce to see if they can get through the joints. If it goes well, the trade route in Sardinia will The node can be taken down."

After the group of thieves gathered that day, Alan stayed on the Evil Tooth Barrier for three days. One is to wait for Garden to repair the armor, and the other is to give the bandit leaders time to think carefully. Two days later, Garden first sent the repaired Eternal Guardian. As Garden said, due to the limitations of materials and craftsmanship, the armor cannot be 100% repaired. Of course, the performance is not as good as before, but because the damaged part is only the chest part, the defensive performance of other parts of the armor has not changed. Eternal Guardian can also be worn close to the body, but it is not afraid of being seen through the damaged part of the chest at a glance. Apart from the discounted defensive power, Garden's craftsmanship is not bad. His methods are quite satisfactory, but with a strong military style, that is practical.

So Allen asked Gurus to pick a group of clever and studious young people and hand them over to Garden, asking him to train a group of craftsman apprentices first. Although there is a weapon workshop at Dawn Castle, the number of people is still limited after all. Furthermore, the team headed by director Lins mainly develops firearms and artillery, and even the tanks that are currently being produced and developed. Allen still lacks a team of craftsmen who specialize in the production of cold weapons and equipment, and it would be great for Garden to make up for it.

(This chapter is not over, please turn the page) He even planned to let Garden go around in the dark place in the future, to see if he could win over a group of workshop craftsmen from the original emperor, so as to strengthen the team.

Then the day before he left, the bandit leader began to express his opinion to him. In the end, most of the bandits made a preliminary agreement with Allen. If Alan can reach the imperial capital smoothly and open this north-south trade route, then these bandits will fully support Alan and follow his every order. As for those bosses who were still hesitant in the end and took a wait-and-see attitude, Allen didn't make things difficult for them. But he has a ruler in his heart, which has long separated these people. At that time, these people will have to pay a higher price than they are now if they want to join after seeing the situation is good.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, and there is no such thing as a guaranteed deal. These people don't want to take risks, and if they want to join after the business road is opened, the threshold Alan gave them will not be as simple as it is now.

"There are quite a few chambers of commerce in Sardinia City, and there are several large business groups. And behind these business groups, I am afraid that the relationship is complicated. We will offend many dignitaries this time when we go north. Just a dark place has already offended a lot of people." A general and a certain lord. From my point of view, Sean’s activities in Sardinia may not be so smooth.” Allen bent down and folded a new grass, chewed it lightly in his mouth, and the grassy fragrance melted in his mouth.

Edward said indifferently: "That's normal. But don't forget, even the emperor of the empire cannot control everyone. Therefore, even if there are business groups fighting against us, but the interests dictate that Sean and the others may not be able to win some allies. Haven't you heard that above the mall, there are only eternal interests and no eternal enemies?"

Of course, Allen has heard of this iron rule in shopping malls. In fact, he took a natural attitude towards Satin and his party. It would be great if Sean could win the support of the chamber of commerce in Sardinia, but if he couldn't, it wouldn't be a loss. As for this business route node, if it cannot be opened now, it does not mean that it cannot be opened in the future. A viscount has limited influence on the city of Sardinia, but an earl, especially an earl of strength, is completely different. What's more, after arriving in the imperial capital, there is still the support of the second prince, so there is a lot of pressure to push down, and the chamber of commerce in Sardinia City will not worry about submitting.
