The roaring fire in the center sent wisps of green smoke and sparks upward.

The orange-yellow glow of the fire and the warmth of the heat reflected on Kane's face.

When the guild heard Kane's words, they all focused their attention.

The environment, which had been a little noisy just a moment ago, fell silent for a moment, and only the crackling sound of the burning wood in the fire could be heard.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about those refugees?"

Kane asked.

Hearing Kane's question, everyone was a little puzzled, but Raphael nodded in realization.

He heard Kane's question and for a split second thought of what Kane might be going to do.

"Refugees from the city and others may not survive this winter," Finalis said. ”

As a former saint in a certain world, she also participated in the war against the demons, how similar is the invasion of the demons in the past and the invasion of the undead now.

Being in a high position, she instinctively knew what the high-level of these forces might have to do.

When Nozomi heard her words, she immediately turned her head and asked in surprise, "Why do you say that?" ”

Rui heard his sister's question and looked at her like a fool.

And Funa patiently explained: "These forces are difficult to protect themselves, don't you see those residents in the city? Their faces were also hungry all the time. ”

"I can't even feed my own family, let alone these refugees?"

Funa's voice was not deliberately lowered, so that all the guild members around her could hear it clearly.

Some of the explorer members who were not deeply involved in the world or were immersed in exploring the dungeon all showed expressions of sudden realization.

After thinking it through, there was an unbearable expression on his face.

You know, they've all heard that the number of refugees may be hundreds of thousands or more, and there is no specific number at all.

After all, none of the members recruited by Kane will be evil in nature.

With so many people on the verge of losing their lives, they instinctively feel sadness.

But they couldn't say anything to save the refugees even when they opened their mouths.

Because there are too many.

"So, Kane, are you going to save them?"

Fenalis asked, a little strangely.

If there is anyone who knows Kane's personality best among the guild members present besides Kane's teammates, it may be Fenaris.

She was arguably the one who had been in contact with Kane for the longest time.

Naturally, I know.

Kane is not a virgin, nor is he a man of such a flood of compassion.

Whatever the current situation is, it will take a lot of time and money to save these refugees.

Hearing Finaris' words, Kane nodded.

"Yes, I want to save all these refugees."

Hearing Kane's words, everyone began to talk about it.

"But hundreds of thousands or more? There are too many of these people. ”

"If the president wants to save them, he must want to transport them to the Lantern Territory, after all, the Lantern Territory is so large, but there is an extreme shortage of population."

"The question is how to get so many people through, when we left, the ports were still being restored and built, and the shipyards weren't being built at all."

Everyone was talking, and after knowing Kane's thoughts, they directly thought of the benefits involved.

and the difficulty of trying to get the idea done.

Raphael, who had been thinking about it, suddenly said: "Unless you say that the Lord's Origin Skill can make enough real ships in a short period of time. ”

As long as this problem is solved in Raphael's thinking, then the other problems are not too big problems.

At this time, he could only think of such a solution.

Hearing Rafael's words, Kane smiled and said, "Smart, that's it." ”

Kane then said to the crowd, "I have a skill that allows me to ignore all mana costs for 10 seconds. ”

"I was originally going to deal with those undead, but I didn't expect to use it so quickly."

Hearing Kane's words, Raphael immediately nodded in understanding, and then skimmed Milarina, who was listening to their exchange not far away.

He probably understood Kane's thoughts, and it worked.

"The lives of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, are now in our hands, and once we transport them all to our territory, they can all survive."

"The contribution of these hundreds of thousands of people, plus the contribution of our efforts to annihilate those undead in the future."

With that, Kane paused, staring at the crowd in front of him.

"It's enough to lift everyone here to gold."

After hearing Kane's words, everyone frowned and thought.

According to the last time they destroyed the ogre, and then saved tens of thousands of lives, the contribution they provided added up.

Compare this time again.

Regardless, it seems that it is indeed able to lift them to gold, as Kane said.

Kane dared to make such a guarantee.

It was because when this idea came to his mind, he asked Lilulu to probe the wind.

If it can be done.

No problem at all.

While everyone was thinking, Kane came to Milarina's side alone.

"Looks like Lord Kane needs my help."

Watching Kane come over, Milarina said with a smile.

Kane nodded, "Yes, Your Excellency Milarina, I now formally request cooperation, and we will sign a treaty of cooperation with you in the Lantern Territory." ”

"Hopefully, when you transport these refugees this time, you will be able to provide a safe sea route to keep them safe while we transport them."

After listening to Kane's words, Milarina thought for a moment, and then said: "Of course this kind of thing can be done by the Blue Sea Empire, so the question is, what can you give." ”

Hearing Milarina's words, Claire behind Kane walked out.

If there was one of them who knew Milarina's race best, and what the so-called Blue Sea Empire might need, it would be Claire.

All the history of the half-life species, Claire has carefully read it when she was growing up.

Although she doesn't know what the Blue Sea Empire lacks, Claire can at least find something possible with the history of her former kind.

"You may have heard what Kane said just now, saving these innocent lives will make the fog reward for you."

"Reward, that means this kind of reward is not only available to you explorers, but even to those of us who are still in the ring of the world?"

After hearing Claire's words, Milarina asked.

Claire nodded, then said, "This piece of information alone is enough to show our sincerity. ”

"This information has been verified by us personally, even in the misty world, it is very hidden information, and the people in the ring of the world don't know anything about it."

People in the World Ring may even identify this situation as a destiny.

A hero saves people, and a hero kills a beast that endangers the surrounding environment.

And then suddenly the strength increases.

They didn't know much about the Mist, but simply thought that they had been rewarded by the Mist for their heroic actions.

This reward is rarely tied to saving the lives of ordinary people.

"Well, even if that's true, what exactly are the rewards we can get?"

"Rules."

"Rules?!"

Milarina said with some surprise.

It was too surprising to her, and it would take too long for a normal person to comprehend a rule without the help of the fog.

It even requires a certain amount of chance or environmental factors to achieve this.

"Yes, the fog is very fair and forgiving.

If you make this collaboration happen and do save these lives, then you will definitely be rewarded by the rules. ”

"It's not just you, as long as you participate in this operation, you will be rewarded, and those who don't reach the gold level will improve their strength."

Milarina frowned and thought for a while before saying, "You just tell me directly, aren't you afraid that I won't regret not cooperating with you?" ”

"After all, I heard you just say that you can get it whether you save these refugees or kill those undead. Even if we don't work with you, we can do it. ”

With the strength of the Blue Sea Empire, it would definitely be no problem to save these hundreds of thousands of human beings.

There are so many small islands in the ocean, and it should be considered a rescue to directly transport these human beings to various places in batches with sea beasts and let them live a self-sufficient life.

And those undead are not invincible with the strength of the Empire.

That's when Kane said: "So it's just a way for us to show our sincerity, and there's no actual exchange of benefits, is it." ”

"It just means that if the Blue Sea Empire cooperates with us, it will indeed be able to gain benefits."

Then the magic in Kane's hand condensed, and a piece of blue metal appeared in his hand.

"That's the first thing we're going to work on."

"I hope that this time I can directly cooperate with the Blue Sea Empire for a long time, not just this time."

As he spoke, he directly handed over the metal in his hand.

Milarina took the metal in her hand and looked at it and asked, "What is this?" ”

"It's a metal that doesn't corrode by seawater, and it can be made in large quantities, and we can provide it to you in large quantities."

That's what Claire just said to Kane.

One of the biggest problems that has plagued these marine races throughout history is the metal that can resist the corrosion of seawater.

After all, they are an intelligent race and need metalwork.

However, it is difficult to obtain metal that can be used in the ocean without corrosion, and it is necessary to ensure sufficient quantities.

That is, they need a metal that is cheap enough and can be produced in large enough quantities.

This is a question that has plagued the intelligent races of the ocean.

Almost every marine race in the world, unless they are extremely lucky, most of them suffer from this problem.

Hearing Kane's words, a water balloon instantly appeared in Milarina's hand and wrapped the metal in it.

Then the water balloon begins to spin and tumble.

I saw that the metal block inside was tumbling down, but there was no change in the slightest.

And Milarina's expression was also visible to the naked eye, and she became excited.

This state lasted for about 10 minutes.

Milarina held the metal block firmly in her hand and said to Kane, "Yes, as long as you can provide this metal in large quantities and at the right price, then we can talk about cooperation in the future." ”
