Korgi left the place where Ron was being held. As he emerged from underground and felt the sunlight brush against his face, his mood became exceptionally pleasant. He was no fool. He knew that if not for Xiao Ran, he would surely have been one of the unlucky ones by the end of this mission. Even if he could have obtained some resource rewards during the mission, there was no way he could have gained as many as he had now.
He was very satisfied with the negotiations with Ron. There was truly nothing to be dissatisfied about. Ron was willing to pay twenty-five million Merit Points as tribute for being defeated. This was equivalent to additional spoils gained outside the mission and would not be counted in the final defeat statistics for either side. Once the mission ended, as the final victors, they would receive another reward for winning the mission. Based on an extremely complex weighted evaluation, along with the additional contract terms, they would also be able to select some valuable items from Ron's legion.
As for handing over part of the European Federation's territory in exchange for Ron, that was also part of the deal. At the same time, if they wanted high-quality and abundant spoils, they naturally could not crush Ron's legion all the way to the bottom. If they did, they would not be the only ones able to benefit from Ron's legion. On the contrary, if Ron's legion could at least remain in the middle ranks, then they would have the greatest chance of extracting the maximum benefit from him.
Otherwise, once the defeated side handed over its spoils, wouldn't the other legions that had participated in this mission and ranked near the top also get a share from the total reward pool?
