"The tech combat forces will also sign agreents with you all, responsible for supervising everyone and ensuring full compliance with the treaty."
At this mont, Lava General didn’t hesitate at all and directly put himself on the table. "Also, you don’t need to worry that Roster territory’s mining machinery and textile machinery won’t be sold to you. That’s impossible."
"You all are the only variable in this agreent. As long as you agree, then, barring any accidents, everything will progress as stated here."
After getting Lava General’s confirmation, the representatives’ expressions obviously relaxed sowhat.
Actually from their current reactions, it wasn’t hard to see they’d all already been tempted.
What was the biggest problem with their nations? Territory too small, weak risk resistance, relatively homogeneous geography.
Many things required them to do themselves, but they really weren’t good at it. In the end, they’d fall into a vicious cycle. But after this commonwealth was established, eighteen nations complenting each other, risk resistance greatly increased. Besides that, there were a series of benefits, plus the envisioned changes after industrialization on here...
"Can so of the detailed terms here be adjusted?" Another representative asked. "I basically approve of this plan. I think what needs to be undertaken and paid is basically reasonable. But in this system, so things are unfavorable for us relatively weaker nations..."
"You can bring it up and we’ll all discuss it together." Lava General wasn’t angry.
Disputes were normal.
Even two neighbors building houses had disputes. Even two brothers inheriting an estate had disputes. With the establishnt of an alliance of eighteen nations, how could there be no disputes?!
Bringing things up, discussing them together, researching a reasonable solution—that was normal.
He’d never thought one version could settle such an important matter.
Facing Lava General’s attitude, they relaxed sowhat. For a long ti afterward, they fell into consultations. These representatives also kept relaying ssages back to their nations to inquire.
Finally, three days later, the Hill Lands Commonwealth was officially established.
The establishnt process was very low-key, almost unknown to outsiders.
Just the representatives of each nation signed an agreent at the forr Temple of War in Krig City, witnessed by the God of Technology and the tech combat forces. They invited the tech combat forces to beco the arbitrator. If any of the eighteen nations failed to fulfill their obligations, they would be sanctioned by the tech combat forces.
At the banquet after it ended, a burly man with graying beard but not looking elderly found Lava General. "General, based on my understanding during this ti, magic-tech industrialization seems to require a lot of steel?"
"Yes, whether it’s various machinery or our War Soldiers, the main material is actually steel. You all will catch the first dividend after the Hill Lands Commonwealth is established."
Lava General had naturally noticed this burly man was the Grand General of the Nation of Mutuns, and also Mutuns’ representative this ti.
The Nation of Mutuns possessed the most, the largest, and the highest quality iron mines on the continent. Conservative estimates put it at 55 to 60 billion tons. Looking at the continent’s current population and developnt, using it for a few hundred years wouldn’t be a problem.
Lava General’s next main task was ensuring the Nation of Mutuns transford from an agricultural nation to a resource nation, ensuring the iron ore supply for the upcoming magic-tech industrialization.
"Um..." The burly elder seed a bit hesitant, as if wanting to say sothing but embarrassed.
"Just say whatever you need to. You’ve all already agreed to believe in the God of Technology, so you’re one of us." Lava General quickly noticed his unusual behavior.
The burly elder hesitated for a mont, then gritted his teeth and spoke. "General, it’s like this. Starting about half a year ago, strange... strange creatures started appearing sporadically in our Nation of Mutuns’ iron mines. We don’t know what they feed on. We only know they frequently appear in the iron mines."
"Whenever workers encounter these monsters, basically there’s no chance of survival. In half a year, less than ten people successfully escaped, yet such ’accidents’ have occurred over 30 tis, averaging once every five to eight days."
"I think if we can’t resolve these monsters, it will definitely impact our upcoming iron mine developnt plans."
"But after experiencing the war fanatics’ attacks, we no longer have that capability."
Lava General’s mouth twitched slightly. Could this also be blad on the Church of War? Half a year ago the Church of War hadn’t gone crazy yet!
But these monsters were indeed troubleso.
He knew the other party couldn’t possibly lie to him about this.
"Have you discovered specifically what kind of situation, what kind of place these monsters can be encountered? Any other intelligence, like what these monsters feed on, what they do normally? Or if there’s anything that restrains them or things they don’t like."
Lava General had actually dealt with so things during his years at the Church of War. He had so sense of how to handle these matters. Unfortunately, the other party knew very little information. He could only wait until this matter was settled, then lead the War Soldiers himself to personally investigate...
Almost at the sa ti.
On the Magic Net.
The auction’s aftershocks continued.
People online were still discussing this auction’s impact.
Many people personally witnessed people they knew rapidly improving or undergoing other changes after obtaining auction items, then they’d sigh on the Magic Net. Even more so, so saw the balance of power struggles change because of this auction...
But people’s attention ultimately wouldn’t be that focused. As information increased, people’s focus on one thing would naturally gradually beco short-lived.
Besides the auction, various famous strears and influencers starting to sell goods in different ways was also a point of attention for people.
Audrey’s stream selling new-style clothing broke records. Roster territory’s textile factory and garnt factory sewing machines were smoking from overuse...
Master Carl’s alchemical products didn’t sell much, but the Magic Net filming tripods, fill lights and other casually crafted items beca hot products...
...
These people’s explosive popularity and sales enthusiasm, without exception, were all diluting the auction’s attention. But the attention on Dragon Bank and Dragon Delivery was eternal.
Because all of this seed to revolve around them. Who knows how many people even had the thought of buying sothing just to personally witness dragons, to see dragons descend at their castle.
Of course, it might just be to film it and show off on the Magic Net. As for what to buy, that didn’t matter at all.
But today, a new explosive piece of news appeared on the Magic Net!
