Unify the Thain Plateau?

Ren looked at Captain Marius and didn't answer immediately.

During the Third Age, when Gilman was not seriously injured and fell asleep, the Makulag tribe did not unify the plateau at its peak, occupying a quarter of the entire plateau, but that was already the most glorious glory of Astarte. .

Since the New Era, the Thain Plateau has always been a dish of loose sand.

Dozens of barbarians of different branches, hundreds of tribes large and small, as well as the same number of trolls, ogres, and many primitive and backward intelligent races, scattered on the vast plateau, there has never been a real The overlord.

This situation has a lot to do with the empire. The empire does not allow the Cheyenne Plateau to be unified, and then poses a threat to the empire.

However, the Cheyenne Plateau is not the territory of the empire.

Reyn's face was thoughtful and asked: "Captain Marius, do you know why the empire has not incorporated the Thayn Plateau into its territory?"

"Because it's not worth it." Marius replied immediately.

Ren nodded.

Yes, it's not worth it!

The area of ​​the Cheyenne Plateau is too large, almost equivalent to half an empire. Although it has not been accurately surveyed and mapped, it is estimated to be 40% of the area of ​​the empire.

However, there are not many valuable resources in such a large territory. It is not completely absent. It is just that the quantity is small, the steep terrain and the extremely high altitude make it difficult to transport even if there are resources, and the freight cost exceeds the resources themselves.

The environment of the Cheyenne Plateau is also very harsh, with great temperature differences between day and night, lack of oxygen, hurricanes, extreme cold weather, etc., making it unsuitable for ordinary people to live in. Only races like barbarians, ogres, and giants that are naturally strong and stubborn can adapt, but they also have a very uncomfortable life, just barely working hard.

The intelligent races living on the plateau may add up to less than 20 million.

You must know that Congatro, which has an area of ​​only one twentieth of the Seine Plateau, has an even worse natural environment and has a population of 30 million.

Moreover, the tribes on the Seyn Plateau are very scattered.

Poor resources and sparsely populated land. These two factors make the Saien Plateau almost no value to conquer. Since the establishment of the empire, no one has ever thought of unifying it.

Further west is the world mountain range that is difficult to climb. Together with the Thain Plateau, it forms a natural barrier to the west of the empire. There will be no enemies invading the empire from here. There is no need to conquer. The Thain Plateau is also the empire's sphere of influence, just a name.

"Since Captain Marius knows the difficulty of unifying the plateau, why does he still have this idea?" Renn asked strangely.

The Makurag tribe has developed rapidly in recent years and has followed themselves to become extreme fighters, but the total population is still less than 10,000.

If there are no limit fighters, let alone unify the Thain Plateau, it will be very difficult to even keep Astarte.

There is no such obligation in the covenant between Glamorgan and Astarte.

Marius looked at the Leizhu Heavenly Soldier in the mechanical alchemy room, with a little scruples on his face. He didn't know that the Leizhu Heavenly Soldier was a clone, and Ren didn't want to explain, and opened a portal.

"Come with me."

Ren led him through the portal to an unmanned meditation room at the base of Fort King Kong.

"My lord, I think the unification of the plateau is not for myself, nor for the tribe." Marius' expression was serious. After thinking about it for a long time, Xiangming finally decided to tell a major secret, and solemnly said: "I am for my lord. Gilman."

"Oh?" Renn vaguely guessed.

Marius whispered: "My lord Gilman has fallen for thousands of years. My people thought that he fell asleep and couldn't respond to prayers, but one day he would wake up."

"Isn't that the case?" Ryan asked knowingly.

"no!"

Marius shook his head, "My lord did not fall, but was seriously injured. At the end of the last epoch, Gilliman was attacked by the Lord of Darkness during the battle of God, leaving a terrible wound on the body of the God. The Lord’s divine power erodes our lord and is difficult to drive away. Gilliman can only shut down the kingdom of God and use all of his divine power to heal the injuries, but it has not been completed until now..."

"My lord concentrates on healing the wounds, without superfluous blessings, the believers are gradually lost."

"Later, even the priesthood of ‘Glory’ was taken away, our lord’s prestige declined, and there were fewer and fewer believers, and only the Makulag people were still holding on."

Marius' expression was heavy.

Having said that, he stared at Renn closely: "Actually, my lord Gilman has always been able to respond to believers, but in order to save divine power, only the patriarchs of Makulag know this secret, and will communicate every few years. once."

"The last time I communicated with my lord, it was the eve before the Lord came to Astarte."

Ren looked a little surprised, with a daze on his face, and sighed: "So it's like this." He had already guessed Marius's purpose, or in other words, Gilliman's purpose.

What Unity Plateau wants is not territory, but the population of 20 million.

"Gilliman wants to redevelop believers?" Wren asked.

"Yes!"

Marius nodded his head and said hopefully: "My lord’s injury has gradually recovered, but there is a lack of believers to provide divine power. If the barbarians on the plateau can return to the embrace of my lord, pray to him, it will only take a few years. I can heal completely and wake up."

"Is this Gilliman telling you, or is it your own speculation?" Reyn asked thoughtfully.

"My lord said it himself." Marius said with a certainty.

Renn nodded slightly.

The Eye of Soul confirmed that Marius was telling the truth, and he had seen Gilman with his own eyes at the Temple of Astarte. His situation was consistent with what Marius had said, and there should be no falsehoods.

To be honest, he didn't want Gilman to wake up.

Extreme fighters are very important to themselves. Every Extreme Warrior is his own symbiosis, but at the same time, they are all believers of Gilman, pious and firm, even if they have built them into the most powerful army in the world, Nor was it able to shake their faith.

The real body of Gilman’s **** is in the Temple of Astart, where is his kingdom of God. When he wakes up, he will definitely rely on the Extreme Battle Group to restore his fame and regain his “honor” priesthood.

At that time, he will inevitably be involved in the struggle between the gods.

The priesthood of "Glory" now belongs to the "God of Knights and Glory" Vivienne. He is usually called the "Fairy of the Lake". It is located in the "Knight State of Brantania" in the northern part of the empire. The people of the entire kingdom are in the lake. Followers of fairies.

Although the fairy in the lake is not the most powerful among the gods, it is second only to a few gods and is definitely much stronger than Gilman, who almost fell.

Ryan was reluctant to be enemies of the Fairy in the Lake and his kingdom for Gilliman.

The interests of the two sides are inconsistent, who should the Xtreme Fighting Group listen to?

He was not sure to let the extreme fighters give up their beliefs. More importantly, the power of the entire battle group was based on the transcendent element of "protoplasmic symbiosis", and the "protoplasmic symbiosis" was given by Gilliman to Makulag's barbarism. Human.

God can give blessings or take them back.

"grown ups!"

Marius seemed to have guessed Ren's thoughts. He has been thinking about it for more than a month, "My lord has specifically confessed to me that the united plateau of the extreme fighters is not free, and my lord is willing to offer the equivalent, or even more. High-value things as rewards."

"What reward?" Renn raised his eyebrows, quite interested.

"My lord, please see."

Marius took out an animal skin map from the dimensional space attached to the power armor. Renne recognized that it was a map of the Seine Plateau. The production was quite detailed, but the area and shape of the plateau were not drawn. The trends of mountains and rivers are marked with a large number of locations.

He noticed dozens of red markers on the map, very conspicuous.

"This is the distribution map of the mines on the Seyn Plateau." Marius said: "Everyone knows that the resources on the plateau are poor, and it is true on the whole. But even if it is barren, there will always be buried underground on such a large plateau. For some huge mines, the biggest difficulty is how to find the location."

"My lord was the lord of the plateau more than 10,000 years ago. The mortals who rule here are familiar with every place on the plateau."

"No one knows where there is a mine better than my lord."

He pointed to a mark on the map, "For example, here, this is a mythril mine with huge reserves, which is absolutely no less than the largest mythril mines in the empire. If it is mined, the annual income can reach tens of millions. Golden shield."

"And here."

"There is a gold mine buried under that mountain. It is of high quality and not difficult to mine, and it is not far from the Osean province on the border of the empire."

Marius pointed to several red marks in succession, like a few treasures, and said the mines represented by each mark. There are as many as five gold mines alone. Other magic metal mines, iron mines, copper mines, and coal mines. Wait, there are dozens of them in total.

These mines are located on the Cheyenne Plateau. Some mining and transportation are not difficult, and some are too far away and the mining costs are high.

But undoubtedly, the value of this map is immeasurable.

This is not a map, but a treasure map!

If it spreads out, the Thain Plateau will attract the madness of the upper empire and nobles, and in a blink of an eye, it will turn from a barren land that no one cares about to a golden land that is coveted!

Renn's heart beat suddenly.

Needless to say, the economic benefit of the mine is to provide materials for the construction of the star destroyer. In my own plan, the star destroyer must be more than one or two, or even three and five. It is possible to exceed ten. , And will build bigger and bigger, and the power will get stronger and stronger.

Each Star Destroyer consumes countless metal materials, and if you buy them all, you will have to pay a very high purchase cost.

And even if you have so much money, you can't buy enough materials in the market.

By providing raw materials from the mining farm on the Seyn Plateau, the cost of manufacturing the Star Destroyer can be kept to a minimum, and the excess profits can be used elsewhere, such as purchasing other manufacturing materials, which perfectly solves your own shipbuilding plan!

The creation of star destroyers on the Cheyenne Plateau is also very concealed.

For work in mining farms, consider cooperating with mechanical unions, and then recruit dwarves who can adapt to the plateau climate. It just so happens that the population of the dwarves is now exploding, and they can promise to give them some territories to build new homes and move out of the world's mountains.

Rehn's mind flew around, thinking of many plans.

The Thain Plateau must be taken down and become your own base for making star destroyers!

But he didn't get dazzled by the benefits, looked at the tall leader Marius, and smiled: "I haven't promised yet. You will show the map of the mine site. Don't you be afraid of my objection?"

"My brothers and I completely believe in your noble character."

Marius praised her sincerely.

Then he said: "My lord said, this map of the mine is only part of the reward. When he wakes up, he will give the adults a more precious gift."

A more precious gift?

Ren couldn't help being a little curious. From the eyes of a god, he thought it was precious and of higher value. Isn't Gilliman going to give himself an artifact?

He thought about it seriously.

Gilman is a well-known good god, loyal and upright, noble and brave, cherishing glory more than his own life, and never has a precedent for lying. His promises can be trusted and deceived the possibility of helping him wake up. Very low.

It is no problem to unify the plateau to help him wake up, and with the strength of the extreme battle group, it is not difficult to do it.

The difficulty lies in the differences that may arise in the future.

One minister does not serve two masters, and the ultimate battle group cannot have two masters.

Unless he and Gilman separate high and low, one of them will be loyal to the other. But Gilman is a god, and he is just a mortal. Will God be loyal to mortals?

Rennes didn't think it was possible.

Well…

He fell into deep thought. Since he couldn't solve the contradiction between Gilliman and himself, he should solve the root of the contradiction, which is the ultimate fighter. Extreme battle group can have today's prestigious strength, with extreme fighters accounting for half and power armor accounting for half.

However, if you think about it carefully, the Ultimate Warrior is not irreplaceable.

If Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers are put on power armor, they can also exert the power of armor. Maybe it will be a little worse, because the Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers' strength is only the legendary elementary level.

If the heart of the main brain is upgraded and the upper limit of the Leizhu Heavenly Soldier is raised to the legendary mid-level, it is not bad at all.

Even stronger and more reliable!

In fact, he had a long time ago the idea of ​​letting Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers wear power armor, but Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers are more suitable to be tool people, and the number of brain divisions created by the main mind is limited, one less than one. , I have to save a little bit, so I didn't try it.

Maybe you can give it a try now, and there is a real problem with the protection against extreme fighters.

Renn's thoughts spread out.

It can go a step further. The power armor does not need to be worn by humans, and the brain-dividing chip is controlled remotely to control the armor for combat, achieving the effect of "cloud" combat.

Reverse thinking, now secretly modify the control system of the power armor, leaving a back door.

If the extreme fighters do not obey the command and defy their own orders, they can remove their authority over the power armor with a single thought, and then cancel the symbiosis relationship, the extreme fighters will be greatly reduced in strength, and they will be immediately trapped in the armor, and the power armor will become stronger. The armor became their prison.

Marius waited for a long time.

Seeing Renn's eyes flashing and a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, he couldn't help asking: "My lord, how are you thinking about it?"

"I agree with you to unify the plateau." Renn replied readily.

Marius was overjoyed and heard Renn continue to say: "However, the Thain Plateau must be unified in my name and make it my territory."

"Your territory?" Marius was puzzled.

He doesn't care who the Saien Plateau belongs to. He only needs the residents on the plateau to believe in Gilliman, and Ren wants to designate the Plateau as his own territory. He doesn't mind, but he doesn't know how to achieve it.

Ren smiled, "Captain Marius, have you forgotten that I have just been promoted to a holy soul wizard. The empire law stipulates that holy soul wizards of the Supreme Council are eligible to be canonized as a duke and designate a piece of empire land as a duke. "

Marius suddenly understood.

Rehn has taken a fancy to the entire Cheyenne Plateau. If this piece of land becomes his territory, it will be the largest duchy in history!
