Another Ally!

As a former "Emperor," Xiaochuan was still quite shrewd.

Firmament provides extra support to the Settlement where the top 50 Challengers reside; the higher the ranking, the better the rewards from Firmament.

It can be said that each drop in the TOP50 ranking has a huge impact on the Settlement.

His previous drop from LV4 had already caused Daiwa a very heavy loss.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu is currently the only LV4 in the Dahe Settlement, and he absolutely cannot fall down again.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu looked at Xiaochuan, and after exchanging glances, he slowly spoke.

"Alright, Prime Minister Xiaochuan, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Mr. Park, since that's the case, Daiwa is willing to cooperate with your Settlement. But I must say something unpleasant upfront."

"The World War I the Raging Waves resulted in heavy losses for Daiwa, with many elites wiped out... Haha, Mr. Park should also know that things have been very difficult for Dahe Settlement lately, and it's been hard to gather high-level forces."

"But if Mr. Park is willing to give some points to Daiwa, then it shouldn't be a problem."

Park Seong-man maintained a smile on his face, but inwardly he was cursing.

The people in Dahe Settlement are truly all despicable and filthy.

Even at this point, they still couldn't resist trying to extort money from me.

Is this what Bushido is?!

But with more important matters at hand, we certainly can't afford to fuss over such trivial things.

Fortunately, South Korea lacked technology and talent, but it certainly didn't lack money.

If the Four Great Families were to be a little stingy, it should be enough to appease the Dahe Settlement.

"That's natural," Park Seong-man said with a smile.

"Now that Daiwa and South Korea are allies, it's just a small favor, South Korea will naturally help."

Afterwards, Park Seong-man and Kim Geun-seok bid farewell to Emperor Minamoto no Yorimitsu and, without lingering, boarded their private plane and headed to their next destination.

On the plane, Kim Geun-seok asked with some concern:

"Uncle, are the people in Dahe Settlement really reliable?"

Park Seong-man is Kim Geun-seok's uncle. In public, Kim Geun-seok would address him as "Commander," but in private, there were fewer such formalities.

It's obvious that his uncle will still favor him; otherwise, based on his performance in the first three Instance, he would have been branded as a disgrace in the Settlement long ago.

"These people seem incredibly treacherous; cooperating with them is like trying to get something from a tiger."

Park Seong-man stared blankly out the window, his tone indifferent.

"The people of the Great He Clan are naturally not trustworthy."

"But Genshuo, you need to understand one thing: the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The Dahe people may have ulterior motives, but their hatred for Lin Ye will definitely be greater than anything else."

"It's less about trusting their integrity and more about trusting their pursuit of profit."

"If they can truly conquer the Instance, it will be a huge fortune for any Settlement. The Dahe people were severely weakened by the previous Raging Waves, so they will definitely not let this opportunity slip by."

Kim Geun-seok nodded thoughtfully.

"Uncle, you just mentioned that you also need to find an ally skilled in Land Warfare. Where should we look for that?"

"Besides the Dahe Settlement, there shouldn't be anyone else on Azure Star who has a grudge against Lin Ye, right?"

"Hmph..." Park Seong-man shook his head. "Some are after revenge, some are after technical skills, and of course, some are just trying to maintain their dignity as the King of Land Warfare."

"As long as the prey is enticing enough, someone will naturally be interested."

"You've seen the Land Warfare level of the Winter Is Coming 'Instance. Who else on this Azure Star do you think could possibly rival it?" Park Seong-man said, a cold and sinister smile creeping onto his lips.

Kim Geun-seok's mind raced, and he immediately gasped.

If we were to say that at this very moment, the premier Settlement for land Land Warfare Azure Star is undoubtedly only one, then there is only one.

It is universally recognized as the number one killing Settlement.

The Nirmaner Settlement! (To prevent any trouble, we'll call it Nirmaner; you all understand.)

Two hours later, it was already dark.

Park Seong-man's private jet successfully landed in Lothric, the highest city in the Nirmaner Settlement.

As soon as I got off the plane, a chilling cold swept over me.

Looking at the city's layout, Kim Geun-seok- seok couldn't help but tremble slightly.

This chill did not originate from the cold itself, but from the oppressive, chilling aura emanating from Lothric.

It is an invisible majesty and solemnity, as if time itself has frozen in this moment!

The thick city walls resembled ancient ramparts, solid and sturdy.

There are also pointed castles and towers, stacked layer upon layer, reaching straight into the clouds.

The city is only decorated in black and gray, giving it a calm and mysterious feel.

The entire city can be described as a giant castle, standing atop a cold, gloomy swamp.

Walking down the street, I found that there were very few people here; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a "ghost town".

"Stop looking, the people here are constantly busy raiding dungeons and creating Instance."

"The inhabitants of Nirmaner are either in Instance or in the Creation Space."

Park Seong-man a low voice.

Kim Geun-seok gasped, momentarily speechless, feeling a chill run down his spine.

In fact, Kim Geun-seok had already heard about some things concerning the Nirmaner Settlement.

This Settlement is small and has few people, but it is undoubtedly the First Settlement on Azure Star.

Because this Settlement has four Dungeon Designers for level 4 and above!

It's worth noting that there are only about thirty Level 4 Designers on Azure Star, and four of them are located in the Nirmaner Settlement alone, which is quite astonishing.

Not to mention, their leader, Adolf Schiller, is a top 3 Hero Ranking.

Another terrifying aspect is that the Nirmaner Settlement has a total population of around five million, all of whom are at least Level 2.

You could say they're a nation born purely for Instance warfare! Every single one of them is a war fanatic.

The people here do not develop any agriculture or economy, nor do they have any form of entertainment.

There are only challenge Instance and crafting Instance available.

As for the daily necessities of this Settlement, they rely on two things: first, the support from the Firmament provided by top Challengers, and second, the import of various daily necessities from other Settlements using points.

Kim Geun-seok had heard many stories about this Settlement before.

One story says that a thousand years ago, the Nirmaner Settlement was originally a small community with a small population. In order to rapidly expand the population, the Nirmaner Settlement adjusted the marriage age for women to thirteen.

It even allows women to pair up with any man they want.

Then overnight, hundreds of thousands more babies appeared...
