The Golden Kingdom.
The main hall of the royal palace.
The three high-ranking members of the Serpent Ring Family still couldn't stop smiling.
Just now, Logo directly allocated a resource-rich and extremely vast territory to the Serpent Ring Family.
This territory was like a giant cake that fell from the sky, leaving Webster and the others completely bewildered.
However, as the excitement and exhilaration subsided and reason returned, Webster and Baudelaire calmed down, exchanged a glance, and both understood that it was time for their Serpent Ring Family to make a statement.
Everything has a give and take.
If you want to take, you must first give.
Logo's friendly and approachable attitude towards the Serpent Ring Family, as well as his extremely generous actions, all pointed to one thing: the new leader's arrangements for the Serpent Ring Family might not be entirely satisfactory.
But that's normal; otherwise, why would they let you take advantage of them for free?
Moreover, it might not be a bad thing to let the Serpent Ring Family do risky things; the greater the risk, the greater the merit if they succeed.
For the Gendaya Royal Court, a newly emerging power still in its burgeoning stage, a single achievement today may be more valuable than ten or a hundred achievements centuries later.
Furthermore, the Serpent Ring Family's decision to pledge allegiance to the Gendaya Royal Court was inherently risky; therefore, Webster and his companions were not averse to risky missions.
Before that, Webster wanted to add some more leverage, so he stood up, cleared his throat, and said mysteriously to Logo, who was seated in the superior position, "Your Majesty, I have a shocking secret that concerns the life and death of the entire plane. Would you like to hear it?"
The last question was utterly pointless. With the fate of the entire plane at stake, how could Logo possibly say he didn't want to hear it? Webster's words were simply an attempt to raise Logo's expectations and increase the value of the information, thus securing a better price for it.
However, to his surprise, Logo showed no interest whatsoever. Instead, he looked at him with a half-smile, his lips slightly parted, and Earth Dao casually, "You mean to talk about the relationship between the Ashes Organization and the Guta Federation, right?"
"?!!"
Webster, Baudelaire, and Balhak all froze.
Balhak couldn't contain himself any longer and blurted out, "How did Your Majesty know?"
"Heh, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it in the first place. Everything in this world is interconnected. As long as you analyze carefully, you can always find clues. It just depends on how you discover them..." Logo said mysteriously. In reality, he was basically relying on the power of the Miracle Creation 'Eye of Insight, but how could he possibly tell his subordinates this? Otherwise, how could he maintain his aloofness?
"It was we who were clueless." Webster sighed after realizing what was happening, and at the same time, he felt even more awe for the unfathomable Logo.
Looking up, one could see that the young man sitting on the throne seemed to be surrounded by a misty Mist, and his handsome face had become unfathomable in its majesty.
Baudelaire picked up where his family patriarch left off, stood up, and said, "Since Your Majesty knows everything, you should also understand the predicament of my Serpent Ring Family. The Ashes Organization will never let us go. The best option is to evacuate Planet Pandora as soon as possible... However..."
The tone shifted abruptly, Baudelaire's eyes sharpening. "Now that we've come under your command, to retreat out of fear of danger without achieving anything is not the style of the Serpent Ring Family. Therefore, Your Majesty, please allow our Serpent Ring Family to remain on Planet Pandora, serving as a thorn in the side of the Royal Court, keeping watch over the Dark Council, the Arcane Ring, and other forces for you, and incidentally, helping Grand Elder King Larken eliminate the remaining forces of the Dark Mage!"
The elder, who was drinking, nodded slightly at the first few words, but the last sentence silenced him completely. What did it mean?
Is this a way for me to go to Planet Pandora with the Serpent Ring Family?
But that doesn't sound quite right...
Just as he was wondering, Logo's voice reached his ears. The elder was taken aback at first, then calmed down, but the look in his eyes as he looked at the members of the Serpent Ring Family became strange, as if he wanted to laugh.
On the other side, Logo nodded slightly after hearing Baudelaire's words, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
Some things, if he were to say them, would never be pleasant; they would come across as aggressive.
But if the Serpent Ring Family applies on their own initiative, that would be a different story.
This essentially handed the initiative to Logo.
Without any pretense, Logo readily nodded in agreement.
"I have witnessed the loyalty of the Serpent Ring Family. Here's what we'll do: I can't offer you much support in terms of the Serpent Ring Family -level experts for the time being, but you will certainly not be shortchanged in terms of resources. After you go down, make a list of the urgently needed supplies. As long as the total amount does not exceed 20,000 Star Wheel, I will approve them for you."
Logo waved his sleeve and immediately compensated the Serpent Ring Family for their willingness to stay on Planet Pandora and fight for him.
Logo emphasized the words "Star Wheel" slightly, believing that Webster and Baudelaire would understand the hidden meaning: the Royal Court also had connections in the Astral Realm and could obtain many of the Astral Realm precious resources; otherwise, the currency unit wouldn't be the Star Wheel, but the Ta Pound.
Webster and Baudelaire, of course, understood immediately and bowed respectfully with delighted expressions.
Logo waved his hand and continued, "Have Fujia Ring Serpent bring some of the Serpent Ring Family members to Golden Star as soon as possible. It's such a large territory; it's a shame to leave it empty. Once they arrive, I'll instruct the engineering department to complete the initial construction."
Following the material support of 20,000 Star Wheel, Logo has now resolved the Serpent Ring Family's worries.
Go ahead and do it. Even if we are wiped out on Planet Pandora, there will still be elite seeds left on Golden Star, so the legacy will not be broken.
At the same time, this is also a blatant threat. The younger generation of elite members of the Serpent Ring Family, such as Fujia Ring Serpent, are essentially protons, preventing Webster and others from being half-hearted.
This is a common tactic used by powerful forces to restrict their subordinates. Webster and Baudelaire didn't take it seriously, at least not outwardly; they only showed joy and no anger.
The arrangements for the Serpent Ring Family were finalized in just a few words.
The main theme is to keep the relationship between the Serpent Ring Family and the Royal Court a secret for the time being, so they can only make contact covertly.
Therefore, in a sense, the Serpent Ring Family had only one option from beginning to end: to remain on Planet Pandora.
Baudelaire was a smart man; he chose to proactively reveal what Logo found difficult to say, thus preventing Logo from being the bad guy.
As a result, the Serpent Ring Family received a generous reward in terms of resources.
Twenty thousand Star Wheel is no small amount, and this is only the first batch of resource support. Judging from Logo's tone, as long as the Serpent Ring Family does well, the support will definitely not be small.
