The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#665 - Location, Albis Mountains
Dore didn't bring a gift when he came out today, and felt a little out of place standing there. So, he took out a few of his previous storage rings and distributed them to everyone. However, he also knew that formal etiquette still needed to be in place.
High-level storage rings have always been priceless. Receiving the storage rings put smiles on everyone's faces. Those who already had smiles, simply broadened them. They then saw that Dore's storage ring had a surprisingly large capacity. This item alone would fetch a good price on the market.
About two hours later, Westlin drove everyone away, leaving only him, Ivy, Laura, and Dore and his wife on the scene.
At this time, the sky had already darkened.
Westlin then said, "Dore, the reason I called you here today was originally to discuss the territory. The marriage proposal was just incidental. Now, let's talk about this matter. According to the Third Prince, your territory is located at the junction of the north and our northwest, named the Albis Mountains. There is a large area of wasteland and mountains there, about three times the size of Waltz City. The transportation is also very convenient. If you can take it down, it will be an important passage connecting the northwest and the northern states. With your relationship with the Owen family, and the relationship with the Lei family's daughter, and our military department's relationship, just doing the potion business can expand to the entire northern territory."
He reached out and took out a map.
Dore had never actually seen the location of this territory before. Hearing this, he immediately became interested.
He and Ashi moved closer.
Ivy was shocked at this moment. He finally knew what was going on. Dore attacking the territory, their military department would probably fully cooperate. Good heavens, was the military department's big move because of this?
He looked at the location and, as expected, it was the Albis Mountains, just as he had guessed.
His heart was pounding. This location was truly excellent. If Dore occupied this place, he would definitely be a figure of a higher level than the City Lord of Waltz City in the future.
No wonder his father had asked him to stay and dismissed the others. It turned out that it was also related to him. It was estimated that Charles would also be involved in this matter.
Dore and Ashi also saw the map at this time. As Westlin's finger moved across the map, after seeing the location, Dore's heart began to pound.
This place had a very important geographical location. It was just at the junction of two provinces. Because of this, everyone needed to detour when doing business. If this place could be taken down, the two provinces could be directly connected. As a major thoroughfare, operating a territory here would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.
Traveling merchants and civilians would have to pass through here. As long as they weren't pigs, they could be good lords.
The premise was that they could take it down.
Dore then asked strangely, "Since this is such a good place, why didn't the empire say anything about attacking it? There shouldn't be too many high-level demons here, right?"
Before Westlin could speak, Ivy next to him said solemnly, "There are three or more level seven demons here, as well as countless low-level demons. Attacking it is actually quite difficult. The strength of one of our legions can fight against ordinary level seven demons, but dealing with three level sevens requires a huge price. Only you wizards, who come and go mysteriously, have a way."
He then thought of Dore's level seven wizard tower, and felt a little relieved.
A level seven wizard tower, plus level seven combat power, the two combined could withstand two level seven demons. As long as they solved the remaining level seven, it wouldn't be a problem at all.
"Then you can also call for people, such as the Glory Wizard Alliance?" Dore asked in confusion.
Westlin shook his head at this time and said, "It's not that simple. There are many places in the Northwest that are not under the jurisdiction of the human race. There are hundreds of such places. We can only take our time and slowly plan. Like the Southwest Highlands you know, we have to rest for four or five years to recover after one attack, let alone attack here."
Dore wasn't very clear about the surrounding geographical environment. Hearing this, his heart became heavy.
At this time, Ashi said from the side, "So, we must prepare thoroughly. Dore, your wizard tower group plan needs to start ahead of schedule."
Dore pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need. When the time comes, I'll deal with these three top level sevens. Let's talk about using the legion separately."
This was his own territory, and he still wanted to use his own power.
Hearing this, Westlin and Ivy couldn't say anything. A level five wizard wanting to deal with three level sevens alone was simply a joke.
Dore then said, "I don't want to use too much official power. I don't want the official to participate too much in the city I'm building. I can pay taxes to the Glory Empire, but I don't want too many administrators. So, I will do my best to take down this territory. Three level sevens, for now, it's not easy, but it's not difficult. In a few months, I will have that kind of power."
Dore's tone was very firm, and Westlin felt very unhappy in his heart.
The Rhine family used all its strength, even the strength of the legion, to help you, but this kid actually didn't appreciate it.
Ivy couldn't stand it at this time either.
Although he didn't know the various reasons, his father wanted to help Dore, which must have been agreed by the entire Rhine family. Dore not wanting others to help was indeed a problem.
He thought for a while and said, "Dore, how about this? The Steel Pioneer Regiment needs to train this winter, and it's also in that place. We'll just garrison nearby. As long as you need help, we can move over at any time. How about that?"
Dore showed an embarrassed look, "It's not that I don't want you to help, but it's my personal matter. Using the power of the empire always feels a little embarrassing."
Westlin was a little angry at this time and said, "This isn't helping you, but opening up territory for the empire. I understand what you mean, you don't want to owe the empire a favor. How about this, I'll only use the power of the Rhine family?"
Dore was psychologically tangled. What was the difference between using the power of the Rhine family and using the power of the empire?
He was determined to do it himself and was about to speak when Ashi next to him couldn't stand it any longer.
Dore refused his father three times and five times, and his father was a little embarrassed.
So, she immediately interjected, "Let's do that for now. When the empire's documents come down, we'll go scout around first. After the situation is confirmed, we'll contact all parties for help. The two of us definitely can't do it. We need to find someone to help. We'll talk about it then."
Westlin stared at Dore, his eyes fierce. Didn't this old father-in-law need face?
Dore had no choice but to nod.
"Then let's do that for now. When the news from the imperial capital comes out, I'll set off to scout and then talk about it."
Westlin knew that Dore didn't want to use their power and didn't want to owe them too many favors, but this favor wasn't for Dore, but for his own daughter. If Dore were to let down his daughter in the future, he would have a reason to take action.
