Venture Company
As they envisioned and imagined the new era, the airship had already landed above Thunder Bluff. Magatha Grimtotem had not yet attacked the Goblins in the northern mountains east of Thunder Bluff. She was skeptical of the information about demons appearing in Mulgore, but still expressed her determination. 🐯☹ 🎁♣
"I will have the Farstriders check on the situation at Poison Mist Peak. We cannot tolerate any demon, but before that, we need to deal with those Goblins."
"Any more news about those Goblins?" Zul'ra thought of the Goblins digging in the Mulgore Plains mountains.
"I've got it. They're from a Goblins gang called Venture Company. I even inquired about them in Ratchet. It's a newly emerged Goblins gang that banded together because of pressure from other wealthy families. They make money through violence and illegal means, such as hiring Gnoll to poach furs." Magatha Grimtotem shared the latest information he had received.
"Venture Company, a newly emerging conglomerate?" Zul'ra pondered for a moment. Using illegal and violent means to make money, such a Goblins gang was a real headache.
"Yes, Gazlowe of Ratchet even sent word that he supports my expulsion of the Venture Company." Magatha Grimtotem hesitated for a moment.
"So what are your plans?" Zul'ra pressed, knowing that with her sister Magatha Grimtotem's fiery temper, she'd probably just go for it!
"Those guys at the Venture Company are heavily armed, I told you that, didn't I!" Magatha Grimtotem suddenly retorted. Zul'ra was slightly surprised, then pondered for a moment. Those Goblins had the armed strength that Magatha Grimtotem was worried about, so they were not to be underestimated!
"Those Goblins have never had any good intentions, not even Gazlowe." Magatha Grimtotem's words were laced with resentment; she could tell that Gazlowe wanted to use her as a pawn.
"So what do you plan to do? Just sit by and watch those Goblins continue digging?" Zul'ra pondered a plan. Those Goblins were quite strong, and it wouldn't be easy to drive them away.
"You understand very well that this is impossible. The Mulgore Steppe, and the area surrounding it, all belong to Shu'halo, and the Goblins ' digging activities are harming Earth Mother." Magatha Grimtotem's stance in protecting Shu'halo's interests was unwavering.
"After all this talk, how exactly do you plan to expel them?" Zul'ra felt that Magatha Grimtotem was beating around the bush.
"When I recommended the Forsaken to join the Horde, I made some deals with them, and these cooperative deals included the exchange of some technology," Magatha Grimtotem, looking at Zul'ra and revealing some secrets.
"For example?" Zul'ra felt a sense of unease rising in her heart as she listened to Magatha Grimtotem's words.
"Their alchemical techniques and poisons are exceptional." Magatha Grimtotem's words gave Zul'ra a headache.
"This is inhumane, Magatha Grimtotem! You're putting the Horde at a disadvantage. And how do you know you can control those things?" Zul'ra stared at Magatha Grimtotem with astonishment in her eyes. This guy was capable of anything, using biological weapons against Goblins —wasn't he afraid of incurring a furious retaliation?
"I knew you'd react this way. You're always so concerned with glory. For me, protecting Shu'halo's interests is the greatest glory." Magatha Grimtotem scoffed at Zul'ra's reaction, indicating that he had expected it.
"I don't object to what you said, but when you resort to any means necessary, you become just like those who harm Shu'halo's interests, who are also the people you hate. This will cause you to lose the support of Thunder Bluff. Tell me, have you taken any action yet?" Zul'ra pressed urgently.
"Just like you said, doing this might lose Thunder Bluff 'Thunder Bluff support, which I currently need. Therefore, it's just a plan, but I'll use it if there's no other way to drive out those Goblins." Magatha Grimtotem's attitude was firm.
"So, you hope the Horde can solve this for you?" Zul'ra held her breath; this woman had a brilliant idea!
"If the Horde cannot protect Shu'halo's interests, then why should Shu'halo support the Horde?" Magatha Grimtotem pointed out dismissively, in her mind, Shu'halo's interests were above the Horde's.
"Is this your truest thought?" Zul'ra couldn't help but sneer.
"Yes, isn't that right for you? Zul'ra Jin, didn't you join the Horde to bring greater benefits to Amani?" Magatha Grimtotem retorted contemptuously, causing Zul'ra to pause slightly in surprise.
"Yes, that's right. We stand together with the same goal, but our approaches are completely different. For me, the interests of the Horde are the interests of Amani." Zul'ra was somewhat taken aback by Magatha Grimtotem's question, but then he defended himself, saying that he and Magatha Grimtotem were different.
"Excuses, these are all your excuses. Don't think I don't know. When necessary, you'll do just like me." Magatha Grimtotem expressed his disdain and firmly believed that Zul'ra and he were the same kind of people.
"Believe it or not, that's how things are. As for the Venture Company, I hope you won't use overly aggressive methods. Let's try to find some better approaches."
Zul'ra decided not to argue with Magatha Grimtotem too much, but patiently advised her not to do such excessive things, because not only could she do it, but once things got out of hand, those green-skinned dwarves would also use biological weapons, and the Horde's population was not enough to support such cruel weapons.
"I await your better solution," Magatha Grimtotem said to the yielding Zul'ra, indicating that he would not act Recklessness.
"Have you properly stored those dangerous items?" Zul'ra pressed, somewhat worried about what might happen to the biological weapons in the hands of the Shu'halo's group.
"I'm not a child. Of course I've kept those things safe and sound, right under my nose, and I can use them anytime." Magatha Grimtotem chuckled, his tone full of threat.
"What's your bottom line for the outcome?" Zul'ra looked at the cow, who was grinning, and felt a surge of irritation.
"Get those Goblins out of Mulgore, that's my only demand." Magatha Grimtotem's condition was unequivocal.
"How many square meters is the land in Mulgore exactly? They're standing right next to Mulgore, what can you do about it?" Zul'ra asked, slightly angry. How could the Goblins possibly give up the benefits they had already gained?
"If the above requirements cannot be met, then at the very least, some of the profits must be shared with Shu'halo." Magatha Grimtotem was not surprised by Zul'ra's anger, revealing a hint of his bottom line.
