The appearance of the Holy Vine Village caused Dafei to be in an unprecedentedly good mood. When Tamilia first mentioned it, Dafei thought that it was an unattainable dream that could only be realized a few years later. However, he didn't expect that he would realize it before the country's warzone even opened.
Now that he was in a good mood, even the AFK felt refreshed. He didn't feel bored anymore when he looked at the scenery around him.
At this time, the fleet was already close to the sea region of Thunder Halberd City. When they reached this part of the sea region, they encountered more and more Giant Whale Caravans of the Sea Race. All kinds of Giant Whale Fountains appeared on the surface of the sea. Further away, Da Fei finally saw a few sailboats on the surface of the sea, showing how prosperous Thunder Halberd City was.
Suzanne came to Dafei's side and said, "Sir, I'll go and get some information after we get ashore. It might take half a day."
Dafei nodded and said, "Okay, go."
If it was the higher-ups of Naga who wanted to get rid of the Thunder Halberd City Lord, then it wouldn't be a problem at all.
At this time, a large group of yellow dots flew towards the fleet. Dafei's heart jumped and said, "This is?"
Suzanne said seriously, "This is Thunder Halberd City's patrol team. Their mission is to check the strength of visitors. If they think that you are too strong, they will follow you into the city or out of the city. In short, their mission is to not allow experts to use force in Thunder Halberd City's territorial waters. "
Dafei nodded and said, "The security here is pretty good."
Suzanne sighed and said, "I have to say, maintaining good security is the guarantee of Thunder Halberd City's prosperity. In order to maintain such security, the Thunder Halberd City Lord's military strength is extraordinary. In reality, many of the surrounding weak tribes have taken the initiative to join the Thunder Halberd City Lord's security area. This caused Thunder Halberd City's power to grow and threaten the interests of the other lords. Actually, the Thunder Halberd City Lord isn't wrong. His fault is that he is too strong. "
Dafei couldn't help but sigh. Being weak was wrong, being strong was also wrong. Then, being invincible shouldn't be wrong, right? It could only be said that although the Thunder Halberd City Lord is strong, he isn't invincible. That's enough. I'm robbing you, wahahaha!
At this time, the patrol team came to the front of the fleet and floated out of the water. It was a large group of Naga Knights.
A four-armed Naga Knight in heavy armor shouted, "Is the visitor the City Lord of the City of the Lighthouse Islands Dafei?"
Holy sh * t, you even know that I'm the City Lord of the Lighthouse Archipelago. You really deserve to be famous. Dafei hurriedly replied: "Yes, I heard that Thunder Halberd City Master likes good wine, so I specially brought a few ships of good wine over to sell."
The leader replied, "It just so happens that the Thunder Halberd City Lord is also very interested in this warrior. Warrior, please meet the City Lord after coming ashore. We will escort the warrior!"
Then, the team got into formation and guarded the two sides of the fleet.
Dafei was stunned! He didn't expect them to take the initiative to meet me? This seems to be a sign of roping me in? Of course, for the Thunder Halberd City Lord to be able to manage it so well, he was definitely not an incompetent person. Of course, he knew what to do!
Dafei looked at Suzanne awkwardly. "What do you think Thunder Halberd City Lord is trying to do?"
Suzanne said calmly, "Sir is such an outstanding Warrior that even the Dark Tide Lord favors him. It's normal for an ordinary City Lord to express his support."
Of course, this was indeed normal. If the system gave him a choice of two missions, it would be a pain in the ass as well.
Dafei coughed and asked, "What if the other party gives a very grand cooperation condition, and it's not convenient for me to take action?"
Suzanne said calmly, "My mission is to be a guide for you and provide information. The specific decision is still up to you. "
Sure enough, plans can't keep up with changes in life. Dafei shook his head and sighed. "Alright, do what you plan to do. I'll think about it carefully."
"Got it."
Under the escort of the patrol team, a shining island city appeared in Dafei's field of vision. From afar, it was much larger than the Dark Tide Temple. As expected of the East's tyrant. As they got closer, all kinds of large fleets came in an endless stream. Each fleet had five to ten ships, but none of them exceeded ten.
As they got closer, Dafei could clearly see the towering city walls and the magic towers around the island. It was these magic towers that radiated dazzling light from afar. At this moment, these magic towers all showed how powerful Thunder Halberd City Lord's defense was. Compared to him, the six magic towers in Dafei's Lighthouse Archipelago were simply too shabby.
Dafei began to wonder if he should start a war with him. After all, even the other lords were afraid of him. He was a lord, after all. Did he have to stand out?
While Dafei was thinking, the fleet entered the port. Unlike the Dark Tide Temple City, which only had the Merfolk, the port here was filled with humans carrying baskets on their backs.
Suzanne introduced, "These are pearl divers or pearl farmers. Their ancestors were all slaves, so they know very little about the world outside the archipelago. It's just like how the kingdoms on land know nothing about us. Pearls can increase the Merfolk's population and are the currency of the Naga Empire. Thus, their status is equivalent to the human's gold mine. They are the most valued talents of the Naga Empire's lords. Having so many pearl divers is proof of Thunder Halberd City Lord's strength. "
Dafei said, "I see!"
As Dafei's fleet docked, a large group of Naga Warriors lined up neatly on the port. The captain of the escort team shouted, "Warriors, please disembark. Thunder Halberd City Lord invites you."
There was nothing more to say. Let's go. However, I'm not here with good intentions, so there's no need to bring my entire family. I'll let them stay here.
Suzanne also said calmly, "Then I'll go gather information."
"Okay."
Thus, under the guidance of the Naga guards, Dafei walked through the streets and once again witnessed the prosperity of the city that was not inferior to the Dark Tide Temple. Then, Dafei entered a cave on the island and saw the underground market. He then walked lower and lower.
Dafei could not help but ask in surprise, "Thunder Halberd City Lord lives underground?"
The captain of the guards replied, "Yes, but this island's underground is connected to the bottom of the sea. The City Lord's palace is actually at the bottom of the sea. He only moves underground when he meets guests on the surface. In reality, this Thunder Halberd City is only a small part of the lord's territory. Most of the lord's territory and resources are at the bottom of the sea. "
Dafei nodded silently.
Finally, Dafei arrived at a brilliant underground hall. In the center of the hall was a huge pool. In front of the pool, a tall, six-armed Naga hero covered in crystal armor stood majestically. Such a powerful aura caused Dafei's heart to involuntarily tremble.
"Warriors, this is Thunder Halberd City Lord. Please!"
At the same time, the Naga hero laughed straightforwardly, "Welcome, Warriors. It is my honor for Warriors to visit Thunder Halberd City!"
Dafei stepped forward and coughed dryly, "I'm very happy to be received by the City Lord. May I know what business does the City Lord have with me?"
The City Lord smiled and said, "Ever since you defeated General Kenaki at the Devil Sea, the achievements of the Warriors have spread rapidly in the Eastern Sea Region. Even Warriors rejected the invitation of the Dark Tide Lord. This is even more shocking and unbelievable. I want to know what is the ambition of the Warriors? Is there anything I can help you with? "
Sure enough, it's roping me in! Alright, I'll state my conditions. If you don't comply, I'll have to think of another way. Hehe.
Dafei sighed and said, "My ambition is to achieve peace between the Sirenes and the Naga race. The other is to get 1000 units of Sea God's Tribute in a short period of time. This is what the Leviathan race needs."
The City Lord was shocked, "Warriors are actually in contact with the Leviathan race? Warriors know what this means? "
Huh? As soon as he heard that I have the Leviathan race, his reaction was the same as the Temple Chief Steward? Dafei could only sigh and said, "This means that if I can't complete the mission, my city will be destroyed in minutes!"
The City Lord shook his head, "But Warriors, the Leviathan race is a race created by the Creator himself. Their arrogance and violence are something that even the Sea God has to be courteous to. If you complete the Leviathan mission, it most likely means that you will obtain the protection of the Leviathan, which is the legendary guardian beast."
Dafei was shocked, "Leviathan as the guardian beast?"
The City Lord praised, "Of course, the Leviathan race is very picky about the water quality. The city of the Warriors must be in a place with very unique water quality. If she is happy, there will definitely be additional rewards. Warriors, you are really amazing. I can help you get 1000 units of Sea God's Tribute quickly to help you complete the mission. Warriors, are you willing to cooperate with me? "
Damn! As expected of a big shot, 1000 units of tribute was worth half a year of Brother Guo's errands!
Dafei was surprised and happy, "Cooperate with what?"
The City Lord smiled and said, "Peace with the Sirenes. This is in the interest of the Naga Empire, and of course, it is in my interest. I am willing to help Warriors facilitate this. What do you want from the Siren? Warriors, you can tell me. Then, I want to establish a friendly trade relationship with the Warriors' City of the Lighthouse Islands. Our goods here will give the Warriors a 20% discount. Of course, if the Warriors feel that it is necessary, I can also send troops to help protect the city. What do you think, Warriors? "
Dafei was shocked on the spot! He was a man of great talent and bold vision, a man of few words, wise and mighty!
This offer is too much in line with my interests! ' Especially since I had given away the Lighthouse Archipelago, I had to show some results so that the big guilds would have the confidence to cooperate with me. Not to mention, I was pressed for time and couldn't wait to go to the Country War. Peace was the most important!
Dafei asked in shock, "Then the 1000 units of Sea God's Tribute will be on credit?"
The City Lord smiled and said, "Of course! However, under normal circumstances, no one is willing to sell the Sea God's Tribute. So, I admire the Warriors. This is a special case. Oh right, I heard that the Warriors also brought a lot of wine. We can calculate the price. In short, this debt will be put on the City of the Lighthouse Islands. What do you think, Warriors? "
