"Just an ordinary territory?"
Hearing Chen Heng's request, Xillia thought for a moment before asking, "Do you have any requests?"
"I don't have any big requests."
Hearing Xillia's words, Chen Heng shook his head and said softly, "The only request is that the territory has to be as big as possible and that it will not be affected by other people."
"That's it?"
Hearing Chen Heng's request, Xillia felt quite surprised.
He had thought that Chen Heng would give him a condition that would make things difficult for him.
After all, with Chen Heng's strength, if he just wanted a piece of land, it would not be a problem for him to go anywhere. Why would he come all the way here?
However, he had never thought that it would be so simple.
"If it's not some flourishing place, I think I can do it for you, my dear Ekdo."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Xillia gave a slight smile as he spoke softly.
This was indeed not a big problem.
If what Chen Heng wanted was a prosperous place with a large population, it would be quite difficult.
After all, such a place was incredibly popular in any kingdom, even in the Kalo Kingdom. It was impossible for outsiders to get their hands on it.
Even though Chen Heng was powerful, it would be quite difficult for him to obtain such a piece of land.
However, if it was just some barren land, things would be much simpler.
In some places like the Makdo Kingdom, there might not be much spare land in the country that could be used for farming.
However, this was not the case in the Kalo Kingdom.
This place was quite close to the wilderness, and every few years, this place would be invaded and pillaged by the wilderness's races.
As such, there were many barren lands in the Kalo Kingdom, and many of them were things that others did not want.
You only need to spend a relatively insignificant amount of money to buy the land.
In fact, if one was strong enough, one could even directly enter the wilderness and occupy a piece of land.
Of course, the prerequisite was that one could survive the attacks of the wilderness's races.
Obviously, this was a very difficult task.
Thinking until here, Xillia's expression softened a little. After pondering for a moment, he continued, "If that's the case, I'm sure you'll receive good news soon."
He spoke softly, "From what I know, there have been many lords wanting to sell their territories and leave this place permanently."
He said.
The nobles hoped to sell off their territories like they were the most common commodity.
In the eyes of people from other places, this kind of thing was almost like a fairy tale.
However, in the Calo Kingdom, this was the most realistic reality.
Due to the long years of invasion by the races of the wasteland, it was difficult for the nobles who had taken root in this land to recuperate, and it was difficult for them to accumulate wealth.
For the sake of their own safety, they had no choice but to expend a great deal of effort to form a team capable of defending themselves.
Because of this, many people's pockets were empty. Every year, they couldn't find any profit.
This was something that could not be helped.
Who asked the environment of this area to be so harsh?
Due to the perennial chaos of war, there were not many merchants who dared to do business in this area.
The only income the lords had was the income from farming, and some taxes and the like.
However, this income was not enough to make up for the expenses of forming a team.
As a result, many people were actually losing money as lords of this land.
If someone was willing to pay a sum of money to buy their territories, many people would be very happy.
With Xillia's connections and abilities in the Calo Kingdom, as long as he was willing, he could easily find some people who were willing to sell their territories and give them to Chen Heng.
He did not even have to pay a high price for this.
"However, my dear Victor, I have to warn you."
In front of Chen Heng, Xillia thought for a moment before raising his head and looking at Chen Heng seriously as he said, "Even though buying these territories is quite simple, what happens next is quite complicated.
Victor, you are very powerful and can give you a great advantage. However, the wasteland is also filled with dangers.
"Given your status, it's not worth it to waste your time here."
He looked at Chen Heng and warned him seriously.
"I understand."
In front of him, Chen Heng earnestly nodded, indicating that he understood.
In front of him, Xillia was indeed sincerely trying to dissuade him.
In this land, Chen Heng was indeed very powerful. In fact, it could be said that within the Calo Kingdom, there were not many people who could compare to Chen Heng.
With such terrifying strength, if he wanted to, it would not be a problem for him to settle down here.
It was just that Xillia did not feel that there was a need for this.
With such power, why would he continue to stay in this run-down place?
With Chen Heng's strength, no matter where he went, he would attract the attention of others. In fact, obtaining a large territory would be a simple matter.
With such conditions, there was no need for him to stay here at all.
After all, there were countless people who dreamed of leaving this place and finding a new place to start anew.
Despite having such conditions, Chen Heng did not care at all; he was quite unique.
It was because of this that Xillia could not help but try to persuade him.
"I understand."
Sitting there and meeting Xillia's gaze, Chen Heng nodded, indicating that he understood.
He didn't suddenly decide to come here because his brain didn't work.
In actuality, before coming here, he had long since anticipated the problems he might encounter in this region, and he had even discussed it with Hedoshiri and Xillia.
To Chen Heng, what he cared about was none other than the chaos in this region.
Chaos meant that there was not much outside interference in this region, and there were not many churches here.
Before, Chen Heng had already understood this.
This world belonged to the gods.
In this age, even though the gods had disappeared, the churches that the gods had left behind still existed.
In this era where the gods had disappeared, the churches of the gods represented the gods and still occupied an extremely large amount of power.
To a certain extent, the power of the Church was also a part of Order, possessing extremely powerful strength in many countries.
If Chen Heng went to those places and developed from nothing, these churches would not be able to avoid them.
Chen Heng did not want to see this for now.
If it was possible, he did not want to come into contact with those churches for now.
After all, right now, he could be counted as someone who had awakened a god bloodline, and his bloodline belonged to the Last Flame God.
Who knew what the other churches would think of him, the Last Flame God's bloodline successor.
Moreover, from what Chen Heng could tell, he preferred to develop in this sort of place.
Even if it was a bit slow, it did not matter.
"If there are no accidents, after a while, you will be able to obtain an accurate answer."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Xillia did not say much and only nodded as he said, "And it will most likely be good news.
Before that, Ekado, you and your followers can stay here and rest. "
Looking at Chen Heng, Xillia gave a slight smile as he said, "I'm sure that after such a long journey, you would like to find a place to rest for a while."
He opened his mouth and laughed softly.
"I'll be troubling you then."
Hearing Xillia's words, Chen Heng also gave a slight smile as he said softly.
"In that case, in return, if you need anything during this period of time, please let us know."
Looking at Xillia, Chen Heng gave a slight smile as he said, "If it's anything else, we might not be able to help you, but if it's something related to battle, I'm sure we will be able to help you.
This could be considered his repayment.
In return for helping Chen Heng, Chen Heng did not mind helping Xillia out during this period of time.
After all, no matter what, in terms of status, the other party was the uncle of this body, and they were related by blood.
Even if Chen Heng established himself in this region, he would still be on good terms with Xillia for a long time.
Since that was the case, helping Xillia now was not a big deal.
"That would be great."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, a look of delight appeared on Xillia's face; it seemed that he was quite tempted by Chen Heng's suggestion.
In actuality, this was indeed the case.
Recently, many beastmen tribes had invaded the wastelands and plundered the Kalo Kingdom.
Even though most of the areas that had been attacked were in the north, his territory had been greatly affected as well.
That group from before was one of them; it was an army from the north that had tried to pillage his territory.
It was foreseeable that there would be many more similar incidents in the near future.
With the former Chen Heng joining him, his days would be much easier in the future.
After all, putting aside Chen Heng, just his two followers were Life Knights who had awakened Life Energy.
To a certain extent, these two Life Knights were equivalent to an elite army of hundreds of soldiers.
This was even more so with Chen Heng in front of him.
Before, the scene of Chen Heng instantly defeating hundreds of people and knocking them unconscious was still fresh in his mind.
With Chen Heng's help, the pressure he felt would instantly disappear.
Thinking to there, a look of delight appeared on his face.
"That's right."
Sitting there, Chen Heng seemed to think of something and thought for a moment before raising his head and saying, "I hope I can recruit those people from before."
He said.
What Chen Heng was referring to was the army that he had defeated with his magic arts.
Those people were not very powerful and were just an army made up of ordinary people. There were not many of them, only 200 or so of them.
However, this was still a large number of people.
Right now, Chen Heng was completely empty-handed. Apart from Hedoshiri and the other two Knights, he did not have many people he could order around.
He could use these people to replenish his forces.
"Those captives from before?"
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Xillia frowned and felt that it was a pity.
He had been thinking about recruiting those people as his subordinates. Whether it was to use them as slaves to farm or to replenish his army, it would be a good choice.
Kalo Kingdom's population was simply too small, so any manpower was precious and could not be easily given up.
However, since Chen Heng had brought it up, his plan naturally fell through.
As the person who had defeated those people, according to the rules of this era, Chen Heng had the right to take those captives as his spoils of war.
Moreover, he was incredibly powerful, and Xillia could not resist him no matter what.
"That's fine, but be careful."
Xillia did not hesitate and nodded, "These are rebel soldiers from the north; if you are not careful, they might run away.
However, if used properly, these people can become a force, even though they are not much to you. "
He bitterly laughed as he spoke.
"Also, as your relative, before you leave, I am willing to provide you with the food that these people need as repayment for helping me."
He chuckled and said.
"Thank you very much."
Hearing this, Chen Heng also smiled and thanked him sincerely.
Within the room, they chatted for a long time before Chen Heng got up and silently left.
He walked out of the room in front of him and came to another area.
This was where Xillia had arranged for him, and there were already people waiting there.
Hedoshiri and Ramu were waiting outside Chen Heng's room. Hearing Chen Heng's footsteps, they immediately came over to greet him.
"Your Majesty."
Looking at Chen Heng, Hedoshiri's expression was respectful as he asked, "How is the situation?"
By the side, Ramu did not speak and only looked at Chen Heng, seeming to be quite concerned about this.
"It's going quite well."
Meeting Hedoshiri and Ramu's gazes, Chen Heng smiled and said, "Mr. Xillia has agreed to help us obtain a good territory."
Hedoshiri and Ramu immediately smiled.
Even though they knew that there would not be many problems, hearing this reply, they still felt quite happy.
No matter how bad it was, at least from the current situation, they would soon have a suitable piece of land.
"Also, there's another piece of good news."
Standing there and looking at Hedoxili and Hedoxili, Chen Heng smiled and continued to speak.
"Those captives are our spoils of war.
"We can take advantage of this period of time to recruit these people, train them well, and turn them into our strength."
"Mr. Xillia has agreed to provide us with enough food during this period of time so that we do not have to worry.
"This is undoubtedly good news."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Hedoshiri gave a slight smile, "It seems that we can finally have our own soldiers.
Even though these people do not seem to be very good. "
Right now, both of them were in quite good moods.
As Knights, they naturally wanted to have their own soldiers.
Even though Knights who had awakened life energy were powerful, if they could have their own soldiers, they would be even more useful on the battlefield.
It was just that before, they did not have such conditions.
Only after Chen Heng had captured those captives did they have an opportunity.
Now that someone had promised to take care of the food problem, they would not have to worry about the future.
"Alright, let's talk about it."
After sitting down in the room, Chen Heng slowly told them about his conversation with Xillia.
"That's about it."
After saying this, he looked at Hedoshiri and Ramu, "What do you think?"
"I think it's not bad."
Ramu nodded and expressed his opinion, "If you can provide us with enough food, then temporarily serving Mr. Xillia is not a big deal.
We can also take a look around and make preparations for our next plan. "
By the side, Hedoshiri thought for a moment before giving his opinion.
Following this, Chen Heng concluded.
The current situation was how the three of them interacted.
Different from the other leaders in the Markdo Kingdom, even though Chen Heng had the most power and status, he was still willing to listen to the opinions of others.
Whenever he made a major decision, he would discuss it with Hedoshiri and Ramu and listen to their opinions before making a decision.
According to Chen Heng, this was to gather everyone's opinions and reach a consensus to avoid any misunderstandings.
Hedoshiri and Ramu felt that they were being respected and liked this way.
As such, they gradually got used to it.
After another discussion, they got up and went to complete their own tasks.
