Fantasy Lord: Beginning with Daily Intelligence-Chapter 90: Maine Alliance

Of course, the allocation of territories is just an early stage division. To truly become one’s own territory, recognition from the Northern Province is needed, and development is required. The former is easy; one simply needs to report the war with the Beastman tribe truthfully, and naturally, they can obtain ownership of these territories.

But the latter is not a simple matter.

Development is always the most challenging task.

It requires a large amount of manpower, gold coins, and resources.

However, everyone is not overly concerned about this.

After defeating the Minotaur Tribe, they have enough time to slowly develop.

Moreover, most of these newly expanded territories had already been developed for several years, even up to a dozen years, making further development much easier.

Among the five Pioneer Lords, even the two who are not Barons have accumulated enough wealth from their years in the Northern Province.

As for Thor.

This time, as long as he can be conferred the title of Baron, he will surely receive further support from his family; then developing the territory won’t be a problem.

This is undoubtedly a joyous occasion for all.

The banquet is held at Eagle Ridge.

Everyone is immersed in a state of revelry.

In front of a huge bonfire. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Baron Gladon raised his chalice.

"Everyone, let’s toast to our victory!"

Laughter erupted.

"To victory!"

"Cheers!"

Voices sounded one after another.

Everyone raised their goblets.

And then drank it all at once.

After drinking.

Thor put down his goblet and gazed at the three Barons and the remaining two Pioneer Lords.

"Lord Thor, if you have something to say, why not speak directly?!"

Pape Lawrence had a thought and looked at Thor, a curious tone ringing out.

With his words.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to Thor.

"Everyone, the Northern Province has broader territories and richer resources. Internal strife is the most foolish choice; we can completely unite externally, just like this time!"

"I suggest that we form an alliance."

"To face the upcoming development wars and the Kingdom War in the future!"

Thor’s words rang out.

As his voice opened, the figure’s movements in front of the bonfire inevitably came to a halt.

Some frowned, others contemplated.

And some had their eyes gleaming.

"Everyone, you should know that there are less than three years until the next Kingdom War. And the Kingdom War, if grasped well, might make us Viscounts or even higher."

"This is our opportunity, and also an opportunity for our families."

"As I said, the Northern Province has broader territories and richer resources. If we unite, we can obtain more and have more capital before the Kingdom."

Thor observed everyone’s expressions and spoke again following his words.

"Lord Thor, you are right; indeed, only by uniting can we achieve more."

"I agree!"

Baron Gladon pondered for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

"I also agree; the Northern Province is vast, that is our realm."

Joz Anubi also nodded in agreement.

"Hahaha, since both have agreed, naturally I, Pape Lawrence, also agree."

Pape Lawrence also spoke.

"I agree!"

Valmy also opened his mouth.

Ultimately, everyone’s gaze fell onto Saki.

"Lord Thor, I beg your pardon, but if we form an alliance, do we need to follow your orders?"

Slightly hesitating for a moment, Saki couldn’t help but open his mouth, although his heart was somewhat nervous after speaking.

"Certainly not!"

"The alliance is just to deal with crises and unite externally; it doesn’t require following my orders."

Thor smiled and shook his head.

"Then I agree too!"

Saki immediately nodded quickly.

And the agreement of the five Pioneer Lords signified the agreement of this alliance decision.

Subsequently, they began discussing alliance-related matters.

As a relatively loose alliance.

Not too many issues needed consideration.

Thor did not force too much.

Food needs to be eaten bite by bite, and roads need to be walked step by step.

At this moment, he wasn’t even a Baron yet, and he didn’t feel that when he stood out, everyone would surely follow his orders.

In fact, if it weren’t for contractual agreements, the resolution of the Minotaur situation, and the strength demonstrated by Eagle Ridge.

This alliance wouldn’t even occur.

Even though it’s a non-binding alliance in the same way.

Being able to become a Pioneer Lord and survive, their talent, strength, and ability are not weak at all.

Some things, even without saying much, a mere beginning makes everyone understand the situation.

The reason they were willing now is because they don’t mind seeing what the future holds.

And for Thor.

This is also what he hopes for.

After all, as he gradually displays stronger strength and brings greater benefits, these people will surely submit to him.

The night gradually passed.

In the next few days, including Thor, all six Pioneer Lords discussed alliance matters.

Until the fifth day.

The entire alliance matters were finally settled.

The alliance outlined that if any member of the alliance encounters danger, they need to send forces for assistance, meanwhile ensuring smooth trade exchanges.

Aside from this, there is a moderate level of information sharing within the alliance.

As expected, this is not a binding alliance treaty.

However, it is a beginning.

This signifies that the surviving six Pioneer Lords in the Maine River Valley started preliminary unification.

This is something that has never happened in the entire Maine River Valley, or even the whole Northern Province.

After all, in the Northern Province, it is not friendly relations between the Pioneer Lords; rather, they are competitors.

In development wars.

Because of interests.

Conflicts between each other are not few.

And as long as conflicts break out, it inevitably comes with hatred.

With intertwined hatred and interests.

It’s almost impossible to reach mutual trust, let alone unite all Pioneer Lords in a region.

But at this moment, the Maine River Valley has accomplished it.

It can be anticipated that after this moment, the entire Northern Province will undoubtedly change.

Yet at this moment, no one knows.

Most of the Northern Province is still relatively chaotic.

The Minotaur Tribe surpassing the Kingdom Knight Order’s defensive area is not a coincidence, nor an isolated incident. In fact, in the Northern Province’s northern direction, during this period, multiple Beastman tribes have crossed the defense line. The Minotaur problem solved by Thor and the Pioneer Lords in the Maine River Valley, other places didn’t, and the outcome is predictable.
