After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1632

Chapter 1632: Diplomatic Missions (Part 1)

The letter from Ryo’s East-bound team arrived next. They had also skipped a few territories, but they did pass through some territories that the soldiers had ventured into when they were looking for their relatives.

So far, there were two Villages that they skipped because they had been taken over. They got some of the weaker members to sneak in as refugees (someone threw mud at him for realism) to see a place’s state before starting negotiations.

One of these was Supreme Village—which they had a map of thanks to Cuppin Ferrol. As for their last stop, it’d be a small village not too far east of Belluga called Mason Village.

It was actually nearer to Khlack than Belluga was, and it was only a matter of which direction Patte and the others chose to take, in which case they chose the former.

Ryo’s team’s path was first towards the Northeastern portions of the region (relative to Alterra), before heading Southeast, where Mason village was.

This meant they were targeting villages nearer the ’safer’ portion as they had several Terran villages buffering between them and the aborigine territories outside.

Ryo’s Team had passed by two territories so far. They were called the ’Great Village’ (yes, it was another Lord with a great naming sense) and ’Abundance Village’.

For a while, they hadn’t been attacked by aborigines. They were, however, warring against fellow Terrans. These two territories were on the defense side each time they went to war, and they had won all of them so far.

Interestingly, Great Village had been attacked by its neighbor Supreme Village, not long after the Migration.

The man’s rationale was how dare they use the superlatives to name their village? As if he patented the use of the words or something.

Anyway, because the Supreme Village Lord, Ongko, broke some rules, they heard he was penalized instead and was deep in debt after the war, making them lose easily when an aborigine village attacked.

Interestingly, when Gill learned of the Lord’s name there, he actually reacted, saying that back in Terran, the guy was the son of a very corrupt person and was a bad seed as well. ¹

The only citizens that remained with him were those who had no capability to leave and those who wanted to take advantage of the helpless.

Ryan and the others reported the information on these villages.

In contrast, the deals with Great Village and Abundance Village—which were doing relatively well by themselves—naturally met with a lot of pushback.

After all, they were pretty much asking for their Lord.

No one would feel uncomfortable and their advisors vehemently advised against it.

How could they let their Lords be taken away by complete strangers? Their lives literally depended on the Lord. If they died, all of them could follow shortly after, especially those who could only survive inside territories.

In their minds: Who knew what kind of nefarious plans these people were planning?

Besides, if they wanted an alliance, shouldn’t their own Lord go here?
