The fact that Golobo went to the underground world to snatch a wave of Sombra without authorization sounded the alarm for Dane. He had to take the threat on Comilla more seriously.
Comilla is far from being a safe place. The faceless city in the underground world is always a time bomb buried under Dane's body, and it will explode with a 'boom' at some point. .
He didn't dare to neglect in the slightest. Although, Sacco said that after the Golobo operation, he once took people to visit the underground world, and found no trace of the Faceless Men finding their whereabouts. However, Dane himself was still a little worried.
So, after dealing with Golobo, he personally brought Cecilia, Eslor and Falao with him, and under the guidance of a mercenary who had participated in Golobo's operation, he went to the The underground world took a trip.
They found the place where Golobo robbed the Faceless Men's transport team, and centered on this, they expanded the scope of the investigation a lot. They didn't feel at ease until they eliminated the future troubles in many aspects such as spells and investigation.
…
I went back to Ghost Knife Port full of anger, and in the blink of an eye, I encountered something the next day—Dodoluo's pirate group came again.
Just like last time, Tatara brought a whole boat of slaves.
During the chat, Dane found that this guy's recent income is quite good. The last time he robbed a whole ship of female slaves was only a month or two. This time again, for the pirates, the income is quite good. OK.
"How much are you planning to spend this time?" After the small talk, it's time to get down to business.
Dodoro said with a wry smile: "Brother Dane, I won't bully you. This time, my brother lost a little bit at sea, and the slave ship is not so easy to deal with. Moreover, this time I will give you They brought a total of three hundred slaves, all of whom were young men, with slightly more women, but there were also quite a few middle-aged men. This time, give me a price of 1,500, otherwise I really can’t sell them to you.”
"Haha!" Dane laughed loudly, and said boldly: "No problem, fifteen thousand is fifteen thousand."
This time, he did not choose to bargain. Obviously, Dodolo, who was brutally slaughtered by Dane once after the price issue on the female slave last time, has learned to behave this time. The price quoted was very reliable and conscientious, and basically had no intention of cheating Dane.
Since he was so upright, Dane wouldn't be unreasonable and insist on spending more on dozens of gold coins, and agreed to settle the matter.
On the other hand, Dodoro still couldn't believe it when he heard that Dane was so bold, and he didn't feel relieved until he saw the real money.
After finishing his business, Dodoro stayed for a while before planning to leave.
Dane originally wanted to keep this pirate friend, but Dodoro also has a lot of things of his own. What he robbed at sea this time was a slave ship belonging to a certain warlord in Schindler. It had gone through a fierce fight, and many of his brothers were killed or injured. After getting the money from Dane, He will find a way to go to some pirate ports, or simply go to the mainland, and recruit a group of pirates to supplement his strength.
When leaving, Dodoro was quite depressed. This time, apart from re-recruiting the population, repairing the ship, and giving some rewards to the pirates under his command, it is estimated that he will not make much money. He wants to expand his strength and return to the Gold Coast. Delay for a while. In this regard, Dane can only wish him good luck.
For the new batch of slaves, Dane thought about it for a while, and did not choose to treat the slaves in the same way as last time.
He recruited Tommy and said: "Tell those slaves that I will give them hope that they can get treatment similar to free people on the island. Although they are still slaves, they can earn money through their own hands and hard work. Enough money to buy food, land, and pay for their own ransom."
"How do you determine the amount of money?" Tommy asked.
Dane waved his hand and said, "You study this matter yourself, come and ask me about everything, what do you want me to do?"
Although he was scolded, Tommy was still in high spirits. Dane let him figure it out, and the meaning of the release was already very obvious: his power would be increased.
Tommy was not an idiot, of course he could hear what his lord was saying, and he was quite happy with the result.
In fact, decentralization is almost an inevitable choice for Dane. When there are more and more things in the territory, he only has one head after all, and the things he can focus on at the same time cannot be as comprehensive as before. Moreover, he still needs to focus more on improving his own strength. As a result, time is even more tense for Dane. He must have more people to assist him in managing the entire Comilla.
Most of the day-to-day affairs of Aurianadu have been handed over to Farao. In the past, in fact, Tommy was able to make some decisions on his own for many things in Ghost Knife Port. He is like a weakened version of Fal'o in Ghost Knife Port.
But now, after Tommy was recognized as a talent by the system, Dane felt that it was time for this clever ghost to take on more responsibilities. He also believed that Tommy would not let him down.
…
Dane, who put down most of his affairs, put almost all his energy on self-training in the following days. After all, Orodik is a country where force is paramount. Although, for a lord, the army under him is the most important thing to ensure safety, but personal strength cannot be ignored. In particular, Dane himself still has considerable growth potential, and he is not willing to waste his talent.
After all, no matter how strong your subordinates are, no matter how rich your influence is, they are always things outside of your body. In any case, it can't compare with your own strength becoming stronger and more direct.
He planned to come to a longer-lasting closed-door exercise to hit the eighth-level professional level. He could feel that he was not far away from that pass.
It's just that this kind of closed-door training was interrupted by something when it lasted only two days.
This was something he had been looking forward to for a long time—three buildings, the Mage Tower, the Monastery, and the Hero Altar, were finally announced to be completed on this day.
After getting the news from the system, Dane was almost non-stop, and couldn't wait for a moment to run to Auriel City: He couldn't wait to see how these three long-awaited buildings could serve Cormier. How much help has been brought to the development of Asia!
