Thinking of Zhou Bai, the unconventional village chief, Charlot could only suppress the thoughts that had just arisen and directly shared the information she knew about the territory.
"The territory is called Penglai Village, which actually has quite a charming na. This information cos from a collection by a good friend’s family, very reliable," Charlot said, stressing the point again after she finished speaking.
Zhou Bai, hearing the na Penglai, couldn’t help but sigh to herself.
From this na alone, it could be seen that the territory that joined the invasion-style lands was from China—foreigners were very unlikely to choose this na.
But as she thought earlier, of so many territories, who could guarantee they were all good?
The earliest one she had encountered was called Overlord Village.
"Is the lord who told you also very interested in our Hope Village?" Zhou Bai continued, her interest piqued by Charlot’s talk of her friend; she thought Charlot might make Hope Village a good offer, or perhaps the other party also had a significant relationship.
"Yes, he is very interested in the goods from Hope Village, and I have ford a partnership with him," Charlot replied directly.
Since he couldn’t handle the products of Hope Village alone, naturally he had to find another partner. Two families coming together were certainly enough to deal with other families.
"So, aside from currying favor, are there other reasons you’re telling this information?" Zhou Bai’s thoughts imdiately expanded.
Relatively speaking, in front of the Royal Capital, Hope Village seed as insignificant as an ant. Both Charlot and her friend’s family could definitely be considered behemoths, yet they were investing in her tiny territory, which suggested there might be more to the story.
Charlot hadn’t anticipated Zhou Bai’s sharp intuition; startled for a mont, she then said, "Yes, because in the past, invasion-style territories on Stan Continent were jointly attacked, but now it seems to have beco brazen and aboveboard, with no territories condemning these lands. This indicates that there must be so secret upheaval occurring across Stan Continent."
"You don’t know either?" Zhou Bai asked Charlot in surprise.
Charlot shook her head, "I’m just a junior in the family, using family resources to handle affairs. How could I be involved in major events or secrets? Our current assumptions are all our own conjectures because the family had ntioned before that they would help establish a small new territory as practice. However, when I returned last ti, that matter was temporarily shelved, and those resources were instead redirected to for leveling up and recruiting people."
Zhou Bai had not expected Charlot to be so forthright.
Clearly, from between the lines, she was indicating sothing serious was happening on Stan Continent.
"May I ask, did the aggressive expansion of the invasion-type territories occur before or after our new territories appeared?" Zhou Bai continued to inquire.
After hearing the question, Charlot paused and then resolutely said, "It happened before, but after you all appeared, the competition seed to intensify. Of course, this is just our speculation."
Therefore, they truly believed there must be a reason for these new territories’ existence on Stan Continent. That was why they were keen on fostering a good relationship with Hope Village, to see if they could dig up so information.
As long as they obtained information and reported it to the family, if it proved useful, they might be able to get involved in the family’s major affairs. By then, their status within the family would be incomparable to their current one.
With that in mind, Charlot narrowed her eyes slightly, then said to Zhou Bai, "Village chief, might you have any information you could share with us?"
After all, from Zhou Bai’s reaction to the content Charlot had just ntioned, the village chief didn’t seem particularly surprised. In fact, she even made more in-depth deductions based on his responses.
It was a reaction that seed a bit off!
When Zhou Bai heard Charlot’s counter-question, she pondered in her mind.
She indeed had a lot of information, but it was all personal conjecture. She wasn’t certain if it was correct, so she couldn’t reveal it so readily.
However, aside from her personal conjecture part, why they had co to this continent—maybe that could be disclosed.
After all, information was best exchanged, and she hoped to learn more from the mouth of this noble with a profound background in the future!
"I can tell you about the origin of us, the new territories. We co from another planet where there is no magic, only technological developnt. In terms of military power, our world’s strength is on par with your world. One day, all of our people received the sa notification of the arrival of the Doomsday Ga. At that ti, demon beasts appeared on our world. After we established territories in our ’world’ and survived for one month, we were completely transferred to Stan Continent with our territories. Although it seems there are many, four thousand territories, by our estimations, the population that ca to this world is just a drop in the ocean compared to our original world. We had 7 billion people in our original world; here, I fear it is only a few tens of millions!" Zhou Bai explained directly.
