Chapter 87, New Trouble from the Southern Border

Just as Fang Yuan entered the Secret Realm.

At this moment, in the southern border of the Kingdom of Gondor.

The leaders of the strongest alliances have gathered together.

They are discussing how to resolve the current predicament of the United Kingdom of Gondor.

"After 12 rounds of talks, we still haven't reached a consensus. The alliances from the eastern region that have returned have already started discussing migration."

"If they really leave, the forces of the undead will flood into the United Kingdom of Gondor."

"Among them are high-level undead such as the Orange Death Knights and the Lich."

"They can contaminate the land and turn it into a land of bones, continuously summoning undead legions from it."

"At that time, we will have to face the undead army directly."

"And recently, there are signs of large-scale merchant groups from the mist forces in the southern Cape City heading north."

"In addition, the beast tide in the western coastal mountains has gradually begun to gather."

"If all three erupt at the same time, to be honest, all the alliances in the southern border will be finished!"

The first one to speak was the leader of the Southern Border Strong Martial Alliance.

Among these leaders, he is the one who advocates the acceptance of the forces from the eastern region and the formation of a new defense line against the undead.

He is also the alliance that is closest to the north among the several alliances.

He is also the one who can most clearly feel the huge threat of the undead.

Because compared to the meeting places of the other alliances, the Strong Martial Alliance has already been harvested by the undead.

Previously, a thousand Dark Martial Warriors came south and directly wiped out the lord's groups of several small alliances under the Strong Martial Alliance.

It is precisely because they directly felt the huge threat of the undead that the Strong Martial Alliance advocated negotiations with the lords of the eastern region.

Because once the lords from the eastern region who have returned leave, their alliance will be at the forefront.

Just as the leader of the Strong Martial Alliance had just finished speaking.

A low and rough voice sounded.

"Hehe, everyone understands what you said."

"The key is that there are too many alliances from the eastern region."

"Do they want us to give up our core territories to them?"

"If that's the case, how can we survive?"

"Previously, it was discussed that each family would give up a part of their secondary core area to them."

"But they refused!"

"Then they proposed monthly compensation of resources, but they thought it was too little."

"We are also struggling now!"

"In my opinion, if they want to leave, let them leave!"

"Everyone here should take care of their own destiny!"

"Besides, all the regions of the countries are experiencing beast tides, and there are so many alliances returning from the eastern region."

"At this time, how can we accommodate them?"

"I think they are using the threat of the undead against us."

"If they really wanted to leave, they would have left long ago!"

"And they would still be here talking to us for 12 rounds?"

The one speaking this time was a fat man weighing three hundred catties, who is also the leader of the Rainbow Cloud Alliance.

In the southern border alliance, her strength ranks in the top three.

She has a younger sister nicknamed the Female Bodhisattva, who is a level ten lord known to everyone in the entire United Kingdom of Gondor.

She enjoys torturing all kinds of fresh meat.

Compared to the Strong Martial Alliance, the meeting place of the Rainbow Cloud Alliance is in a basin.

The terrain is closed, as long as the entrance is blocked, outsiders cannot enter.

Therefore, she has an indifferent attitude towards the threat of the lords from the eastern region wanting to leave.

But when the leader of the Strong Martial Alliance heard this.

He immediately became anxious.

"Fatso, it's always you who messes things up~"

"Do you want to curse me again?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel.

A cough came from the middle.

After giving each other a fierce look, they sat back down.

Then a middle-aged man with slightly graying hair stood up.

He is the eldest among them, and also the leader of the strongest alliance, the Purple Cloud Alliance, Zhao Zixiao.

After pacing for a moment, Zhao Zixiao said.

"We have been friends for more than twenty years."

"When we were exploring the southern border together back then, we were like brothers."

"Strong, wasn't your first job change book given to you by Fatty?"

"Fatty, when your alliance was besieged by the beast tide before, didn't Strong personally lead the troops and repel the beast tide at great risk?"

"At such difficult times, everyone came together."

"Now that things have just stabilized, there's infighting?"

He immediately continued, "What Fatty just said is correct."

"The various alliances in the Eastern Territory do have suspicions of colluding with the enemy."

"We can't let them lead us by the nose."

What Strongman said is also true."

"Once the undead in the Eastern Territory, the beast tide in the Western Coast Mountains, and the merchant guild in the Southern Cape City all erupt together..."

"No one in the entire Southern Territory can stop them."

"All the hard work we've put in for decades will be in vain."

"Although our core territories are in the safest and most prosperous area of the Southern Territory."

"But the defenses set up on the periphery cannot withstand the simultaneous eruption of these three mist forces."

"Once the external forces are defeated, our core region will also be finished!"

"There are no survivors under a collapsed nest."

"Don't you understand this principle?"

After giving a lesson, Zhao Zixiao pondered for a moment and continued, "The best way to break the deadlock now is to first push back the undead army in the Eastern Territory and rebuild new defenses."

"Priority is to eliminate the threat in the Eastern Territory."

"The merchant guild in the Southern Cape City, following the previous method, gather the subordinate alliances, form an army, step by step lure the guild out, and then intercept them along the way."

"After they are weakened, we can mobilize our main forces to take them down!"

"But this time, there will be a lot of guilds."

"The number of subordinate alliances to gather must increase, and the mobilized army must consist of at least red-grade soldiers!"

"After eliminating these two threats, we can concentrate our efforts on dealing with the beast tide!"

The leader of the Rainbow Cloud Alliance on the side hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss, we have also experienced the Southern Cape City and the beast tide. What you said is not a problem."

"But these major alliances in the Eastern Territory, getting them to listen to us~"

"I'm afraid!"

Before he could finish, Zhao Zixiao interrupted him, "Afraid of what?"

"Being taken advantage of?"

"Fatty, you care too much about the little wealth in your hands."

"Your alliances have protested to me more than once."

"They say you exploit them too harshly, eat everything yourself, and don't even leave a drop of oil for the subordinate lords."

"It's fortunate that a few of us brothers can keep them in check."

"But when we can't keep them in check anymore, Fatty, your Rainbow Cloud Alliance will be the first to fall!"

"Although we brothers have conquered the Southern Territory, the alliances that joined us are not fools."

"They are willing to follow us because we can feed them!"

"Just like you, we would have been overthrown long ago!"

"The same goes for the many alliances in the Eastern Territory this time!"

"In short, brothers fighting outside the wall must unite against their enemies!"

"The alliances that retreat from the Eastern Territory are all lords of our Dragon Kingdom!"

"If we want them to obey our commands, we must shed blood!"

"Strongman, I leave this matter to you."

"My bottom line is 80% of the price they offer!"

"But there is one condition!"

"They must push the front line beyond the Lamo River within half a month!"

"Then, using the Lamo River as a defense line, they must block the undead forces on the other side of the river."

"If they can do it!"

"I can promise to send troops to help them capture Lamo City as the new base for the major alliances in the Eastern Territory!"

When the leader of the Strong Martial Alliance heard that they would help the major alliances in the Eastern Territory capture Lamo City, he was somewhat surprised and asked, "Boss, we have been scouting this city for a whole year."

"We have been preparing for a year. Do we really have to do this?"

Zhao Zixiao nodded, "We can afford to lose this city."

"After we sent it out before, we gained a bunch of loyal followers."

"This time, I don't want to subdue these alliances."

"I want them to have a piece of land here that they can't bear to give up."

"With a permanent property, they will have a lasting commitment. After capturing Lamo City, they can attack the surrounding resource territories and military territories. These are enough to balance the income and expenditure of several major alliances, giving them some breathing room."

"In this way, they won't think about leaving, but will choose to expand outward from Lamo City as their base."

"And we can stabilize the entire defense line in the Eastern Territory at the cost of one city."

"By solving the threat of the undead along this route."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Strong Martial Alliance raised his thumb.

"Great!"

"Our leader is truly great."

"I'll take care of it right away!"

But just as he was about to get up, he was pressed back down.

"No need to rush!"

"There's something else."

After pacing for a moment, Zhao Zixiao spoke.

"Lately, the lords of the Sakura, Baiyue, and Goryeo kingdoms have been very active in our region."

"They seem to be keen on provoking conflicts between the major alliances in our southern and eastern borders."

"Have you been paying attention to this?"

The leader of the Strong Martial Alliance shook his head in confusion.

"I don't think I've encountered that."

On the other hand, the leader of the Colorful Cloud Alliance said, "I have."

"Several lords from Goryeo wanted to join a small alliance under my jurisdiction."

"After they joined, these lords frequently clashed with the lords from the eastern border."

"Because of them, the alliances under my jurisdiction have fought the Crimson Flame Alliance at least ten times recently."

"Fortunately, the Crimson Flame Alliance has shown restraint and chosen to handle it calmly, but I heard that the lords there are very frustrated."

"There are hints that they want to break away from the alliance and launch a counterattack."

Zhao Zixiao nodded.

"You have fewer subordinate alliances, so you've encountered fewer cases. Some of the larger alliances under my command have been reporting such incidents frequently."

"After investigating, I found that these troublemakers are all foreign lords."

After hearing this, the leader of the Colorful Cloud Alliance asked, "Should I order their expulsion?"

Zhao Zixiao raised his hand. "No!"

"This matter is not that simple. If there are troublemakers on our side, there must be some on the Eastern Border Alliance's side as well."

"I suspect that there are external forces involved."

"They want to incite internal conflicts among us."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Colorful Cloud Alliance stood up.

"Leader!"

"Do you know who it is?"

Zhao Zixiao shook his head.

"Not yet, but we should be able to find out."

"But the premise is that we must exercise restraint and not be provoked by these petty tricks."

"Find all the troublemakers."

"And then we can interrogate them all at once."

"Qiangzi, I'll leave this matter to you."

"When you negotiate with the major alliances in the Eastern Border, inform them about this."

"Just say that raising an army requires a flag to be raised since ancient times."

"These people are just right for that!"

"Alright!"

At this moment, the leader of the Colorful Cloud Alliance asked, "Leader, don't you need me?"

Zhao Zixiao shook his head.

"You have other matters to attend to."

"There's news from the Crimson Flame Alliance that there's a large undead graveyard in the Northern Border."

"It's likely that it was established by the 1000 Dark Martial Warriors who left earlier."

"Pay attention to this matter and send a level ten city lord to investigate."

"Although the Northern Border is a bit far from us."

"The level of danger is no lower than the other directions."

"If the undead raise a large army there."

"It will be a great danger like Mount Tai pressing down on us."

"Annihilation could happen in an instant!"

The leader of the Colorful Cloud Alliance nodded after hearing this.

"Undead have actually gone to the Northern Border?"

"That place doesn't even have a decent alliance besides the monster lairs."

"I haven't paid much attention to it before."

"But recently, I did hear about it. It was Xu Fei from the Flying Business Alliance who greeted us for a new lord."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zixiao was a bit surprised.

"Xu Fei?"

"The lord from the Silver Moon Forest?"

The leader of the Colorful Cloud Alliance nodded.

"It's him. He said that the Fallen Sakura Axe Alliance of the Sunset Grassland is causing trouble and wants to travel thousands of miles to the Northern Territory to bother a novice lord."

"Let's pay attention to whether the White Eagle wants to cause trouble in our Dragon Kingdom territory."

"I sent someone to investigate before and found that they didn't have this intention, they just hired some lords to go to the Northern Territory."

"After that, I didn't pay attention anymore."

After hearing this, Zhao Zixiao's face showed a thoughtful expression.

After a moment, he quickly said, "When you go to the Northern Territory, investigate this novice lord as well."

"But we need to be careful and not resort to threats."

The leader of the Caiyun Alliance chuckled.

"Boss, don't worry, I'll leave this matter to my little sister."

"She has her own way of dealing with men!"

Zhao Zixiao sneered, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.

But this expression disappeared in an instant, unnoticed by anyone.

He quickly said again, "Fatty, what you just said gave me an idea."

"I might have guessed where these foreign lords who incite conflicts come from."

At this point, the leader of the Caiyun Alliance turned his gaze.

"The White Eagle side?"

"No way!"

"The consequences would be too severe if they were discovered."

"Don't they know that doing so would provoke a major alliance war between nations?!"

"The entire Blue Star would be dragged into the Abyss!"

Feeling absurd, he said somewhat uncertainly, "Boss, but if this is true, we must teach them a lesson!"

Zhao Zixiao sneered.

"They're used to acting arrogantly, thinking they're the Transcendent Level great nation."

"They think that other countries, for the sake of the overall situation, have to accommodate them!"

"Hmph!"

"But I'm just temporarily not bothering with them."

"If it really comes to a fight, do they think they can win?"

"Alright, this matter has too much impact, I will report it to the Blue Star side."

"Let the country handle it."

"We shouldn't take action on the Myriad Worlds battlefield."

"If we start fighting now, it will ultimately lead to everyone's demise."

"Our lives are precious, unlike those expendable resources."

"Of course, there must be a lesson!"

"The lords from the White Eagle in our territory should all have records."

"Issue a conscription order and send it to the Undead Resistance Front."

"In addition, the lords of Sakura, Goryeo, and Baiyue are the same."

"Except for a few extremely guilty sacrificial flags."

"The rest should also be sent to the front line, remember to be discreet."

"Don't let anyone discover any flaws, after all, we also have lords in their territory."

"Don't harm them."

"Understood, boss, you can rest assured about this!"

Zhao Zixiao nodded.

"Let's arrange it like this."

"Everyone go about their own business and try to suppress the undead within half a month."

"Yes, boss!"

Meanwhile, in the wasteland territory.

Fang Yuan still didn't know that the danger from the Sunset Plain had been resolved.

At the same time, another trouble came from the Southern Territory.

At this moment, he arrived at the Secret Realm hall.

He took out the castle's Secret Realm crystal fragment and put it into a special container.

With the surging power of the spatial magic pattern, a black-purple spatial passage appeared before his eyes.

"Ding, activate the Secret Realm crystal fragment, the time to enter the Secret Realm is one hour!"

Upon hearing the prompt, Fang Yuan took a deep breath.

Then he looked back and nodded.

Christine spurred her horse and rushed into the spatial passage.

Lilith and the 500 Flame Mages followed closely behind Fang Yuan and entered.

"Ding, entry complete, the entrance to the castle's Secret Realm is closed, it will reopen in an hour!"
