Global Mutation: Opening with Swallowing a Black Mamba-Chapter 418 - 419: Developing the Territory! Recruiting the Star Cluster Alliance!

Chapter 418: Chapter 419: Developing the Territory! Recruiting the Star Cluster Alliance!

The first battle between the Snow Mountain Territory and the Wanderers was undoubtedly somewhat of a play.

The once notorious Wanderers turned out to be paper tigers in the face of the Snow Mountain Territory.

At first, the Creatures of Ten Thousand Races thought that Gu Qijue had kicked an iron plate by provoking so many Wanderers.

Unexpectedly, the final result proved that not only did he not hit an iron plate, but he had squeezed cotton.

Even the moderately famous D-Tier Wanderers were still nothing but clay chickens and pottery dogs in front of him, unable to withstand a single blow.

A pyramid was quickly built at the site where the Snow Mountain Territory clashed with the Wanderers.

However, the materials for this pyramid were somewhat unconventional.

The base of the pyramid was made of headless corpses originating from the Wanderers.

At the top of the pyramid were heads, one after another.

Tie Yi seemed to very much enjoy this form of artistic expression, so he was extremely meticulous when undertaking this task.

He acted like an artist finely carving his masterpiece.

The Creatures of Ten Thousand Races near the Snow Mountain Territory, upon seeing this scene, did not find it frightening in the least.

They all had family members who died at the hands of the Heaven-Fighting Race or the Wanderers.

Seeing the Wanderers perish here, they were not afraid; instead, they lamented their own weakness for not being able to avenge their loved ones themselves!

Many Creatures of Ten Thousand Races below F-Tier sought out the warriors of the Snow Mountain Territory to apply.

They hoped that next time, they could help the Snow Mountain Territory build a capital.

Such matters were naturally not something ordinary warriors could decide, so their applications were in vain.

Snow Mountain Territory, in the Lord’s Hall.

Gu Qijue’s Ice Dragon Avatar sat grandly in the main seat above.

Standing respectfully below were still Yifei, Horn, and Tie Yi.

Unlike before, the trio now looked at Gu Qijue with complete respect and reverence.

The formidable power of Gu Qijue had completely won them over.

In the Lord’s Hall, the indifferent voice of Gu Qijue sounded: "What’s the current situation like?"

Yifei immediately replied, "There’s no new information from the Wanderers yet."

"However, I have already sent out numerous scouts to gather information from all directions."

"As soon as there’s any major movement from the Wanderers, our scouts will receive the news."

"Currently, the Snow Mountain Territory has a large number of Creatures of Ten Thousand Races wanting to join."

"Among these people, or even within our territory, there should still be some Wanderers."

"For now, I have not allowed them to join the Snow Mountain Territory."

Yifei paused at this point, then continued:

"Around the Snow Mountain Territory, there are still large gatherings of Creatures of Ten Thousand Races."

"Regarding these weak Creatures of Ten Thousand Races, should they be dispersed, or how should they be dealt with, please instruct us, my lord."

After hearing Yifei’s report, Gu Qijue had already considered the matter.

He was developing the Snow Mountain Territory not to flaunt their power but to acquire resources.

The resource he currently needed was the Heaven-Fighting Stone.

Heaven-Fighting Stone was everywhere; even without F-Tier Cosmic Level power, it could be collected.

So, in principle, the larger the population of the territory, the better.

Once he developed and built up the territory, he could have the warriors of the territory explore other places to find other resources.

His Snow Mountain Territory had the Infinite Empire, and even the Star Cluster Alliance as backing, allowing for exponential growth.

Even now, if he let the citizens of the territory go collect Heaven-Fighting Stones, he could profit greatly.

After some serious consideration, Gu Qijue spoke to Yifei and the others:

"Yifei, from now on, you will be fully responsible for the construction work of the territory."

"The pace of development of the territory and its population will be managed by you."

"My opinion is that the more the population, the better, power is not important."

"As for the development speed of the territory, of course, the faster the better."

Previously, Yifei would certainly have advised Gu Qijue against doing so.

Creatures below F-Tier were more of a burden with no great utility to the territory.

But after the recent battles and the events before and after them,

Yifei wisely chose compliance this time, believing that Gu Qijue had his reasons for giving such orders.

After Yifei complied respectfully, Gu Qijue continued to instruct Horn.

"Horn, from now on, you are responsible for managing the territory’s resources and the production of various goods."

"In time, we need to be able to trade normally with the outside world."

"Can you accomplish this task?"

Upon hearing this, Horn paid a respectful salute, but after some thought, he spoke:

"My lord, to the best of my knowledge, there are no other territories around us."

"Even if we produce some goods, it seems we have no suitable trading partners."

"Moreover, what goods should our territory produce and manufacture?"

Horn has always been rather cautious, his capabilities are excellent, but he would not take on Gu Qijue’s orders lightly, instead treating them with prudence.

Gu Qijue was unaware that there were no other territories around the Snow Mountain Territory.

Since they were the only one in the vicinity, there could be no external trade, only internal economic development.

Developing the economy internally required a large population.

Since there were no other territories around, it would be very easy for the Snow Mountain Territory to acquire a large population.

Moreover, the Holy Lion Secret Scroll allowed for material transfers between two universes.

Once the Snow Mountain Territory developed, the goods produced could be sold to the Star Cluster Alliance.

However, this was somewhat complex, requiring that goods from the Snow Mountain Territory be competitive enough; otherwise, they couldn’t sell.

He could let the Infinite Engine research what goods the Star Cluster Alliance needed, and those could coincidentally be produced by the Snow Mountain Territory.

Then he could provide Horn with a production list for manufacturing those items.

Thinking of this, Gu Qijue said to Horn:

"This task remains in your hands."

"As for what goods need to be produced and manufactured, I will later provide you with a specific list and other relevant support."

Upon hearing this, Horn saluted respectfully: "As you command!"

Since Gu Qijue had made things so clear, Horn had to pretend to have no problems even if he did, unless he no longer wanted to be part of the Snow Mountain Territory.

Gu Qijue finally turned his gaze to Tie Yi.

He directly said to Tie Yi: "You will be responsible for managing and training the warriors of the Snow Mountain Territory."

Tie Yi said incredulously: "Now I’m responsible for managing all the warriors?"

Although not much time had passed, the situation in the Snow Mountain Territory had changed from before.

Currently, each warrior of the Snow Mountain Territory held a top grade weapon corresponding to their tier.

In a somewhat ironic way, it could be said that many of the territory’s warriors’ weapons were worth more than their lives.

After Tie Yi asked, Gu Qijue nodded affirmatively.

In the eyes of Tie Yi and others, the warriors of the Snow Mountain Territory were now very elite.

But to Gu Qijue, these warriors were still a ragtag bunch.

Just like long, long ago when he was still in school, his teacher used to often say, "You are the worst batch I’ve ever taught!"

The current warriors of the Snow Mountain Territory were, in his eyes, in a similar situation.
