Monster Minotaur

Chapter 19 Outsmarting the Dungeon

Santos is a standard drow city. Near it are numerous strange plants that can only grow underground, as well as a wide variety of mineral resources. Most of the residents in the city are drow elves, and occasionally some other races will live here temporarily.

Most of the residents make a living by collecting ores, making weapons and armor, or cultivating some plants needed for magic. Most of them are members of each family, and the profits from the products sold need to be handed over to the family for unified management, which is also one of the sources of family profits.

In addition to the unified gray dwarves underground, almost every city has its own gold coins. This chaotic financial system has allowed many people to discover business opportunities and start a business of counterfeiting drow gold coins. Many people have made a fortune through this. As a result, most other drow cities have set up places to identify the purity of gold coins and exchange them.

And if we want to talk about the real specialty of the drow-controlled dungeons, we can only mention spider silk cloth. Because of their natural compatibility with a type of spider called the Cave Assassin, the drow can herd these spiders and collect their silk without fear of being attacked.

Spider silk is used by drow elves using their unique technology to produce spider silk cloth that is not only exceptionally beautiful, strong, but also silky and soft. The ones made by other races are either not durable or not smooth enough. Most drow elves wear clothes made of this kind of fabric.

These spiders can not only provide cloth for the drow, but are also an important source of drow elf mounts. Most of the spider knights, a unique unit of the drow, use these cave assassins as mounts. Spider Rider has unimaginable combat power in the underground city connected by tunnels. Not only can he climb the rock wall above his head, but he can also move quickly.

If it weren't for the gray dwarves uniting and specially setting up a device to defend these spider knights. Maybe thousands of years ago, the gray dwarves had become slaves of the drow elves. Even now, the gray dwarves, who have used various technologies, are only in a tie with the drow, who are relatively backward in technology.

Is this about the resource situation of Santos? Mo Yan said after listening to Ai Xi's introduction to the current resource situation of Santos and the items that can be produced in the city: As for the forces in the city, how confident are you that you can conquer them?

If we only rely on the power of the family. Gil said: We can only defeat some small families. If everything goes well, we can also force some middle-level families to surrender to us. But the big families in the city, There's nothing we can do.

Sisters Ash and Jill can be said to be an opposite example. Sister Ai Xi relies on her own strength to stand out in the family. As for those who like to defeat conspiracies with strength, the family's Blue Rose Guards were trained by Ashe.

Sister Jill, on the other hand, relies more on her intelligence. She likes to calculate everything and likes to use another conspiracy to destroy the conspiracy. She also used conspiracy to conquer the guards trained by Ai Xi, and launched a rebellion, forcing Ai Xi to flee underground.

There were originally more than a dozen families with heirs, but in the battles, only Ashe and Jill survived. And if Mo Yan hadn't interfered, there might have been only Jill left as the successor. But now Ai Xi, who brought Mo Yan to the underground, defeated Gill, who had just taken power, and regained his lost power.

At Mo Yan's request, Ai Xi, who did not kill Jill, got an obedient think tank. Advising her so that when Mo Yan leaves the dungeon in the future, he can safely let them take charge without worrying about Santos' safety.

Then, we need an opportunity. Mo Yan thought for a while and said: An opportunity to summon all the family leaders. That way, I can defeat them all at once, and have them sign the Foss brand with Ai Xi, and completely obey Ashe’s leadership.”

There shouldn't be such an opportunity. Gil shook his head and said: Every meeting is held in the council hall in the center of the city. There is the camp of the hunters and spider knights. It is very tightly defended. And once it comes out, When a problem arises, each family has its own way of dealing with it. Only the leader of the family can enter the council hall alone.

So, is it possible to summon them one by one? Lilith asked: If there is a name, for example, for business dealings, will the leader of the family come forward to negotiate?

If it is a large business, there may be a certain opportunity. Gil thought for a moment and said: The amount of gold coins traded must be at least a thousand to attract the attention of all leaders. Generally speaking, one or two hundred Each family has dedicated personnel to handle the hundred-gold-coin business.

One thousand gold coins. Vivian nodded and said, That's a lot of money. Thunder Bluff only has some Salt people's gold coins, and the gold content is not particularly high.

Actually, we don't really need to come out with a thousand gold coins. Gil said with a smile: We only need an illusion that we have more than a thousand gold coins. In fact, it only takes a few hundred gold coins to show up. After all, We're not really trying to procure stuff.

Once you attract the attention of the family leader, make sure not to miss out after the meeting, and use the failure of the transaction as a cover-up after the meeting, the feasibility of the plan will be very high.

Yes. Mo Yan thought about the feasibility of the plan and felt that there was no big problem. He smiled and said: Although there are certain risks, the feasibility is still good. Then we will implement this plan, gold coins If so, I think your family should still be able to come up with a few hundred. The specific operations will be left to you, and I will only be responsible for the attack mission.

Okay. Jill said confidently, I will make the plan as perfect as possible.

I will also be prepared to take over the city. Ai Xi, who did not interrupt during the discussion, said unwillingly as he looked at Gil, who was trying to please Mo Yan.

Just like that, a succubus merchant came to Santos city and asked to buy a large amount of spider silk cloth. After lavishly purchasing a batch of fabrics, the merchant claimed that he needed more fabrics and successfully attracted the attention of various families in the city. Invitations were sent to the merchants one after another, and most of the family leaders requested to meet and negotiate with the merchants.

Those who did not state that they wanted to meet were rejected by the succubus merchants on the grounds that I don't feel confident about such a big deal without coming to discuss it in person. The succubus merchants took their tauren guards and randomly visited one family after another, but in the end they could not reach an agreement.

Seeing that the businessman really wanted to do a long-term business, those families who had not originally planned to meet became unable to sit still and began to ask the businessman for talks. And nearly two-thirds of the families in the city have not reached an agreement. As well as the families who had talked, they all fell into a strange silence, which attracted the attention of some drow.

Firth's brand? The leader of the largest family in the city was surprised when he heard this unfamiliar word: You mean, the leaders of those families were forced to be branded with Firth in their own family camps. brand?

That's right. A drow mage said: Through my observation with my familiar, it is true that the magic fluctuations on their bodies are the Firth brand. The magicians in their family have also discovered this, but we are not sure about this There’s nothing the brand can do about it.”

I understand. If it is true as the mage said, then nearly two-thirds of the family has been controlled. It can be said that she can only face two choices now. Either notify the remaining families to make a final effort and wipe out all the controlled families. Otherwise, we can only succumb to the hands of the succubus businessman.

I have been thinking about it for a long time. The leader of the family sighed feebly: Go and invite the succubus businessman over. I want to talk to her.

The word unity is simply a synonym for ridicule in the drow vocabulary. Betrayal is almost commonplace among the drow. If they were truly united, the gray dwarf kingdom would have been destroyed by them long ago. So instead of being betrayed and defeated, it is better to negotiate with the winner who is about to take over the city and gain a position in the new organization.

Based on this consideration, almost all the families who discovered something strange sent a signal of surrender to Mo Yan. Moreover, they all said that their families could very well help Mo Yan manage this city that they were familiar with. I hope to get Mo Yan's reuse and adulation for Mo Yan's power.

So, can I say that I have complete control over Santos now? Mo Yan sat in the Santos Council Hall, looking at the drow elves who were sitting on the council seats and looking up at Mo Yan respectfully. Mo Yan looked at Ai beside him. Xi said: I hope you can manage this city better.

I will definitely live up to your high expectations. The ecstatic Ai Xi swore loudly: I will take care of Santos in order for you.

Haha. Mo Yan smiled and said to Jill, who was looking forward to it: And you, you have to help your sister and don't let her make some mistakes that she shouldn't make.

I respect your will. Understanding the meaning of Mo Yan's words, Jill smiled inwardly. The moment she learned that Mo Yan would not kill him, she already understood her role.

The reason why we got a city so easily was because of the disunity of the drow~
