Chapter 873 Is There Really Such a Big Island Overseas?

"Haha, is that so? You don't really think we value your islands. If it weren't a place rich in resources, we wouldn't want it. Otherwise, our Holy Dragon Empire wouldn't be so big."

Everyone present knew that the four empires and a few places were the most resource-rich areas on the entire continent. Other places were too barren, and they didn't even have the idea of ​​occupying them. As for the Holy Tree Territory, it was not because of how rich their land was, but because of their various plants and commercial trade with the Half-Elf Empire.

Godhal and others were a little annoyed when they heard these people belittle overseas. But in fact, it was true that in terms of resources, the large overseas islands really couldn't compare with the Holy Dragon Empire.

"Yes, our resources are indeed far inferior to those of the Holy Dragon Empire, but there are no resources on the islands, but there are many in the sea. The places near the islands are the easiest to mine."

Everyone thought about it, and that was the case. There are many resources in the sea, but it is too difficult and dangerous to go deep into the sea. If this is really the case, then it is a good place.

"That makes sense, so why don't you develop it yourself?" A nobleman made an opinion.

"Our alchemy ability is not as high as yours, so we can't develop it even if we want to."

Godhar said his shortcomings without hesitation, which were not a secret.

"That's right. Even if our Holy Dragon Empire cannot effectively develop the seabed now, you are even more impossible. But the sea near the coastline is not a problem for us."

One noble said proudly, and another noble also said: "But no matter what, we really want to deal with the Holy Tree Territory. If it weren't for the Holy Tree Territory, we wouldn't care about overseas at all."

At this time, Kunon, who had been thinking for a long time, said: "Very good, the information you provided is very useful, so how do you want to cooperate?" Duke Kunon was somewhat tempted by overseas resources.

After so many years of development in the Holy Dragon Empire, all places with resources have owners, and it is really too difficult to expand. Even some ordinary mineral veins are fought over by some small nobles. Now opening up overseas and developing new resources is the best way to divert internal conflicts.

Moreover, maybe you can also seek some benefits for the members of the lower parliament behind the backs of those dragons.

Godhar said without thinking: "We need flying boat technology and other alchemy technology. In addition, our strength is far inferior to that of the Holy Tree Territory, so we will not directly participate in the so-called war."

"How dare you covet flying boat technology. I think these people are just harboring evil intentions."

Flying boats are one of the most powerful military weapons of the empire. How can they be handed over to outsiders casually? Once they develop, wouldn't that make their Holy Dragon Empire have another enemy?

But Kuonong didn't think so: "It's okay to provide you with some technology, but it can't be the latest, and you must also provide us with your technology, so that we can be equal. You don't have to participate in the war directly, but you must provide them with some overseas intelligence, especially about the Holy Tree Territory."

Unexpectedly, the duke actually agreed. Godhar nodded and said: "No problem, after asking the head of the family, we will immediately send someone with sufficient status to sign an agreement with you."

"Agreement? What we want to sign is a contract." Things like agreements have no effect at all. How can such a big thing not be bound by a strong contract? In this way, both parties can be more assured.

"It should be, it should be." In Godhar's opinion, obtaining the technology of the Holy Dragon Empire will play a greater role in the development of his family. The Holy Dragon Empire simply looked down on them. Even if they were given the technology, what would happen? After they finished cleaning up the Holy Tree Territory, it would be their turn. If they got some outdated alchemy technology, they would have to double it.

They would not want these two large islands to develop into two top kingdoms that could compete with them.

The reason why they dared not move those top kingdoms easily was that they did not want to lose too much. Each of these kingdoms had powerful flying boat technology, and even some other special knowledge and resources.

"Now, can you tell me your location?" Duke Quanong said.

"Of course." The two parties have signed a temporary contract, and the signing of the formal contract can be guaranteed next. On the map, Godhar quickly drew a circle.

"From the Holy Tree Territory, it's about this far away."

Just after seeing this, Quanong tried a color on the person next to him. Then, everyone quietly started to talk about family matters. Godhar and his companions were confused about this strange change and could only follow the local customs.

But what Godhar did not expect was that in less than two hours, near dusk, a soldier rushed in. "My lords, we have found out that those large islands do exist."

Then, a recording crystal was placed in the middle of the table. After activating the crystal, the images recorded from high altitude appeared in front of them. Below the high altitude, there are large islands, and people or buildings on the islands. From the perspective of proportion, each of these islands is indeed not much smaller than the Holy Dragon Empire.

"There are really such large islands overseas. I have really learned a lot today."

"Yes, yes, I never found it before. It seems that I was looking in the wrong direction. Look at the airships in the sky in the picture. They are all from the Holy Tree Territory. I didn't expect that the Holy Tree Territory would develop overseas."

"Humph, so what if it develops overseas? Sooner or later, it will be our world. If the Holy Tree Territory doesn't want to give up, it will never make it public. When they want to say it, who will believe them?"

Many nobles are too satisfied now. The big nobles look down on those barren and remote places, but the small nobles like them. It's just because all the land has an owner, even the empire can't attack other countries at will.

But overseas is different. There is no direct connection between overseas and inland. As long as it is taken down, it's a done deal. Other empires have no chance to intervene. These places can only belong to the Holy Dragon Empire. Then the next question is how to divide the land and resources of this island.

And Godhar and others were extremely shocked. They didn't expect that the Holy Dragon Empire could run back and forth in such a short time. How did it do it? The foundation of the empire is indeed unfathomable.
