Chapter 1084 Infiltrators in the Outer Areas 2


    "... Let''s focus on mining in our territory. That''s a business with no risk of going wrong, so all our investment will pay off one way or another."


    "The only doubt here is whether this will be enough to put our province in the lead of the areas around the ck in." The patriarch said in a firm tone.


    He did not have the first ce as his goal since the Miller family would certainly achieve that. After all, in addition to this organization being based in the central part of the ck in, it already had 3 Spiritual Emperors in its ranks to secure its future.


    Hell, that was not even all. With the queen close to advancing to the 7th stage, plus her father, Eliot, the Miller family could soon be the second organization with the most regional experts!


    In this way, Liam had no interest in the first position. However, to the other ck ins powers, he showed no intimidation. All the other powers had only one Spiritual Emperor, while the number of Spiritual Kings was not that different, although the disadvantage was on his side.


    Thus, he wanted to pursue this development strategy and perhaps secure his family''s future within the ck in!


    ...


    While the Gill family leadership was discussing the options for the development of their territory, in a quiet part of that city, a group of five people was gathered in a basement.


    In that ce, there were not many decorations, only what was necessary for the people there to sit with a minimum offort while they were there.


    And just as they were sitting on the outskirts, these people were talking in whispering tones in this poorly lit ce.


    "So? How are the positions of your group? Mine recently arrived in this ce, so I want to know what problems and facilities we can expect..." A rtively young-looking woman asked the three individuals in front of her.


    One of them, a man with a ck beard and mustache, answered her. "The facilities are what you have already experienced with your group. Enter this ce through the border with our state. However, the facilities end in this territory we are in."


    A middle-aged man continued his group mate''sment. "Hmm, from here on out is where the problems are... In the main part of the ck in existed several defensive mechanisms that areplicated to ovee."


    "The people in that ce have developed their defensive systems well. Without us traveling on the roads guarded by the soldiers of the ck in Army, the chances of death for Spiritual Kings are more than 50%."


    After hearing that, the other woman there, apanion in the group of the one who asked the question earlier, then asked. "Why is it like that? Something special? Are the forest regions of this ce that dangerous?"


    The third man replied. "They''re not forest regions. From what I''ve heard, the ck in had no vegetation or powerful beasts until a few years ago. So, these ''forests'' are actually big headquarters of local government spiritual beasts, where each of them provides border protection service."


    "In other words, anyone who tries to infiltrate one of these forests will have to prepare to face all the living beings of such ces!"


    Upon hearing that, the faces of the two women paled while their mouths opened in shock. "Are you serious?" One of them asked. "How can that be? So this Minos'' guy controls all these spiritual beasts?"


    "Isn''t he just a Spiritual King?"


    "Hmm, supposedly, yes..."


    "But local rumors say he can fight against Spiritual Emperors."


    "Tsk!"


    "Nonsense!"


    "Do you believe what these bumpkins say? And even if he can fight against ordinary Spiritual Emperors, what can only one person do?" The other woman said.


    "That''s another problem. It''s not just one person." The elder there shook his head, sensing the difficulty of this mission they were on. "There is at least one Spiritual Emperor in each of these forests. But, on the other hand, in each of the major cities in this state, there is also someone at that stage."


    "Finally, there are teleportation arrays at the most important points in this territory. So, even if those ces'' protectors are eventually destroyed, reinforcements would arrive in a few seconds."


    "That..."


    "If that''s true, how will we get into Dry City? From what you guys are saying, it seems like we can''t rob that ce." The first woman said in an irritated tone.


    These people were criminals from Albano, individuals drawn to the ck in because of the growing wealth of these areas.


    They recently heard rumors that there was a ce with billions of low-grade crystals in the ck in, so they decided to infiltrate this territory.


    But this was not the only rumor circting in the Albano underworld...


    One of the men then answered that woman. "It seems that it is impossible indeed... At least for people of our level."


    "Maybe if we get support from bigger criminal groups, we might have a chance of getting some Spiritual Emperors to join us."


    "Tsk!"


    "That''s a terrible idea!"


    "Even if we seed, we won''t get anything. Or do you think criminals that are so much stronger than us will share their prizes?"


    "We''d better try to rob this city''s bank."


    The Bank of the ck in had developed in recent years, having reached every city with more than 500,000 inhabitants in the ck in. As such, this institution had a branch in the Gill family city.


    "It won''t do any good." The old manmented. "We''ve already researched this, and branches of that bank always send more than 80% of the crystals from local clients to Dry City."


    "In other words, the risks don''t pay off."


    Those two finally lost patience and asked. "So why did you guys invite us here?"


    "Come on, calm down. Of course, we alone won''t make it, but I''ve heard that the number of Spiritual Kingsing from Albano has increased every month."


    "So, let''s wait for the chaos to ur so we can take the opportunity and act!"


    "Oh? That''s it?" Finally, the two felt better, as they were both aware that at least 100,000 criminals in Albano were Spiritual Kings.


    In that case, if only a portion of them came to ck in, then it would only be a matter of time before their numbers reached values for them to force their way into the core of that state.


    "By the way, while my group wasing here, we heard another rumor about the riches of this state..." One of them smiled as she said that.


    "What?"


    "From the looks of it, high-level ntations are growing in great quantity in this main area of the ck in... I''ve heard that such a thing is the reason for the development of this ce."


    "Oh? That sounds true. The local food is excellent..."


    "Come to think of it, if our groups agree, we could take this ce..." She reduces her tone, feeling that so many criminals could not enter such an ambitious agreement. "No, that''s impossible."


    "Maybe..."


    "In any case, how many people are in your group?" The leader of the newly arrived group asked the men in front of her.


    One of them answered. "50 Spiritual Kings, half of them being at the beginning of the 6th stage, half in the intermediate levels."


    "Not so different from ours..."


    "Well, let''s keep waiting, as you suggested. When we left the kingdom, there was a lot of movement in the shadows."


    "So, let''s bet on chaos!"


    "That''s our only option..."N?v(el)B\\jnn


    This group of criminals stood there for a while longer, discussing the many positive reports from the ck in that hade to Albano in recent years.


    The ck in, in the opinion of many of them, looked like a great treasure box protected by fools, waiting for the strongest to dominate.


    At least that had been the idea propagated by the Albano underworld...


    Anyway, these people were greedy and could not ignore the wealth that could even turn their groups into gigantic sects!


    So, they were determined to usurp the possessions of the ck in, to rob the newly risen young king, whom none of them feared, as they feared the old monsters of Albano.


    Whether or not they would seed in their journey, only fate could tell. But it was a fact that they and many others had started a journey of no return on this peaceful ck in.
