A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 767 - 753: Territory
Although the robot leader is very talkative, Baiyu believes that no matter how hospitable someone might be, having several people break into your home is intolerable, especially if they intend to claim it for themselves.
Even the most patient person couldn't endure it.
Currently, Baiyu has numerous advantages over Gong and the other two.
Firstly, he made contact with the robot leader in advance, had a lengthy conversation, and established a basic friendship.
Secondly, Baiyu is seen as easier to control in the robot leader's eyes.
It urgently needs information about the outer world, and working with someone easier to control is evidently better.
Upon hearing Baiyu speak.
The robot leader calmly replied, "No problem, I've already sent my men to capture them. If this group dares to resist, execution will be the consequence."
Three Black Iron Level Warriors.
They are simply insignificant in terms of the strength required to control these ruins.
"Let's continue. You mentioned demons earlier, what are they? Are they humanity's new enemy?"
The robot leader eagerly asked.
Baiyu nodded, "Demons are leaders of the exotic tribes. In a sense, demons are exotic tribes themselves.
They undergo a unique ritual.
Polluted by extraordinary power, their bodies mutate drastically, acquiring all sorts of magical abilities.
For the exotic tribes.
They are powerful leaders. Currently, exotic tribes are generally under the leadership of demons, opposing humans.
They are very cunning.
Their intel level is no less than humans, making them extremely difficult to deal with." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
The knowledge of demons is so vast that it's hard to explain clearly to someone who knows nothing about it.
Fortunately.
The robot leader didn't make things difficult for Baiyu; it appeared to possess human-like emotions and thought processes.
"Where exactly are we located now?"
The robot leader pondered for a moment, asking what has become the most crucial question about the ruins.
Only by clarifying the geographical location can decisions about advancing or retreating be made, and how relations with surrounding forces should be handled.
At present.
The ruins have awakened, and they can't just remain underground.
"This is the Spirit Realm, within the territory of Great City. There's a Great City outpost here.
Great City is a significantly powerful human force.
I am now also in Great City."
Baiyu explained.
The robot leader said, "Do you think I can reveal the ruins now? I feel the whole world has changed.
Over ten thousand years.
Humans haven't genetically evolved, and Frost Imperial is already extinct.
We lost the war back then."
The robot leader was deeply dejected.
Baiyu pondered for a while, then said, "Is there anything you need? If you're looking for a place to survive and develop, I can arrange that for you."
"Really?"
The robot leader's red eyes rippled, "Thank you, I can tell you're not lying.
We just want to act discreetly.
Frost Imperial is already extinct, but this castle is proof that the empire once existed; I must protect it."
Baiyu smiled, "Of course, as long as we can fight the demons and exotic tribes, we are allies.
My name is Baiyu.
From East Prosperity, another human faction."
The robot leader reached out and shook Baiyu's hand, "My name is Zhan Guo, since we've reached an agreement, we're partners from now on."
Baiyu nodded.
"Rest assured, as long as you arrange it well for me, I will offer appropriate rewards."
Zhan Guo made a promise to Baiyu.
"These are matters for later. For now, the most important thing is to escape the predicament. I'm unsure of Great City's views on your ruins, but the City Lord is at least a Silver Level Warrior.
My suggestion is.
Eliminate those three under surveillance, then you immediately relocate the ruins, and I'll arrange a place for you."
Zhan Guo nodded, a fluctuation of lines appeared in his eyes, then ordered his defense robots.
Eliminate Wu Xiao and the others.
Of course, he doesn't fully trust Baiyu, but Wu Xiao and the others indeed are difficult to control and came for Ice City.
Zhan Guo could not let them go.
For the safety of the ruins and even closer cooperation with Baiyu, these three must die.
Soon.
The defense robots deployed en masse. On the monitoring screen, at least fifty or sixty robots surrounded the three.
In this situation.
Two Masters turned pale, fighting hard to break through, while Mr. Wu quickly retreated.
After discovering so many defense robots in the ruins.
They dared not linger and rushed to the exit for respite.
"Baiyu, you can see my sincerity now.
The next step requires you to provide us with a place for safety and livelihood.
I think you should be able to achieve that."
Zhan Guo said to Baiyu.
"Sure, give me a day or two, and meanwhile, ensure my safety.
And meet my requirements.
Also, I need information about Ice City, hope you understand."
"Of course."
Zhan Guo readily agreed, "Feel free to ask anything you want to know."
...
Thus.
Baiyu temporarily settled in Ice City.
Baiyu considered a simple solution; according to Zhan Guo, Ice City can be moved, so Baiyu just needs to provide a plot officially permitted, free from attack by other human forces, for Ice City to establish.
Such places are easy to find.
Nowadays, humans gather around cities, and vast wilderness stretches between cities.
These areas are sparsely populated.
Packed with venomous insects and beasts.
Finding such a place is very simple; some places can even be bought for money.
However.
If Ice City is moved to such a region, it would lose its inherent value.
Baiyu hadn't forgotten.
According to Zhan Guo's classification, he is Silver Level, with dozens of Black Iron Level combatants, and one Black Iron Level is at least equivalent to a Grandmaster.
Such power.
If it can't be turned into an ally, it would be a real waste.
Currently, Baiyu is considering two solutions; one is collaborating with the Mechanical Cult, which must be very interested in such high-intelligence robots.
However.
The Mechanical Cult is too vast.
Baiyu can't converse equally with them; the situation would spiral beyond his control.
Another option.
Is seeking help from the Divine Court.
Though a loose organization, the Divine Court wields enormous influence, getting a piece of land wouldn't be an issue.
Of course.
Besides these two, there's another option.
That is, applying for a Count's territory as Baiyu Count.
