MTLNOVEL Chapter 747, Domina's Advancement
"Are all your members also willing?" Fang Hao asked.
As for Bai Xuan joining, Fang Hao had no reason to refuse, especially since Rebecca was organizing a fleet, and it was precisely the time when the Straw Hat Nautical Group could be of use.
However, he was unclear whether this was Bai Xuan's own idea or the whole Alliance's idea.
Bai Xuan still maintained her smile and continued, "This has already been discussed internally within the Alliance, and everyone agrees to join your territory."
Indeed, this had been agreed upon by all members.
Only the Alliance Hierarch and the deputy would feel the impact on the Alliance's rights, ordinary members naturally preferred a stronger alliance.
Being able to join Fang Hao's side was agreeable to most people.
Fang Hao nodded and continued, "How many people are in the Alliance?"
"There are 72 now, 71 owning cities, all located around 'Lemate Port.'"
It was indeed quite a few people.
"Good, I agree to the inclusion of the Straw Hat Nautical Group," Fang Hao agreed.
Hearing these words, Bai Xuan showed a delighted expression.
She really feared that due to her previous refusal, he might reject them this time.
It seemed she had worried unnecessarily.
How could the first in the world hold a grudge over such a thing!
"Uh, right," Bai Xuan managed to say after hesitating for a while.
Fang Hao was not in a hurry to consume her Book of Lords, instead, he said, "I also have something to discuss with you on this end."
"What is it? Just tell me straight, boss."
"The Federation plans to form a cruising navy along the coast, and I plan to give you a few spots to place your people in," Fang Hao said.
Bai Xuan was taken aback, then delighted again.
What a great opportunity.
Could such good fortune come so quickly?
Being able to establish a connection with the Federation and secure a position, even if a minor one, was beneficial for all transmigrators.
Just after joining the territory, and already benefits were coming her way?
She felt fortunate that she had come early.
If she had delayed by a few days, perhaps this opportunity would belong to someone else.
"No problem at all, everyone obeys well," Bai Xuan immediately said, not even asking further.
Fang Hao nodded and instructed, "Then in the next two days, if you have time, go and find Haber and mention the formation of the cruising fleet, he'll know what it's about."
"Oh, the lead Haber!"
"Yes, still Haber, let him assign you some official position when the time comes, hang a position in the Federation too."
"Oh oh, all right!"
The formation of the cruising team was also part of Rebecca's strategy.
Aerial ships and sea ships, forming a cruising team to block the entry of the Sea Tribe and also to drive away some pirate-like ships.
Bai Xuan and her group were joining mainly because of the military power in her hand.
To increase the number of military forces.
They chatted for a while.
Fang Hao took over Bai Xuan's Book of Lords.
After consuming it, he reset her as the governor of the original city.
That completed the joining.
"Once you go back, bring all your members in, and remind them to keep the matters of the territory confidential. We have quite a few enemies," Fang Hao reminded again.
"Understood," Bai Xuan immediately responded.
"Let's leave it at that for now, directly private message me if there's anything," Fang Hao said as he got up to leave.
However, Bai Xuan seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "Boss, about my ship 'Queen Bai Xuan,' uh, is it still in use?"
Fang Hao instantly remembered the ship.
It was still hanging on the side of a giant ship.
Indeed, he had forgotten about that.
Sea ships were not cheap, and naturally, Bai Xuan couldn't just abandon it.
"In a couple of days, I'll have someone send it back to you."
"Okay."
Fang Hao left the private room.
Bai Xuan immediately opened the Book of City Lord and started checking.
Actually, the Book of City Lord and the Book of Lords didn't differ greatly in functionality.
Just that it had an additional territory channel.
When opened.
The top line was a small text notification.
[Bai Xuan joined the chat channel.]
Then, messages began to scroll instantly.
"Is it the Bai Xuan from the Straw Hat Nautical Group?"
"Master Bai, you joined the territory too, awesome boss."
"@Bai Xuan, Master Bai please share a photo."
"It's the brothers, can we see the legs?"
Bai Xuan felt a bit overwhelmed, was she really that famous?
But still, she sent a message, "Hello everyone, I am Bai Xuan from the Straw Hat Nautical Group, please take care of me in the future."
"Holy shit! It really is Bai Xuan."
"Master Bai is so good-looking, please share a photo…"
Before Bai Xuan could continue,
The Book of City Lord, once again showed a stream of notifications.
Her heart raced with the rapid notifications.
[Fang Hao shared a blueprint with you, Spiritual Field.]
[Fang Hao shared a blueprint with you, Large Quarry.]
[...]
[Fang Hao shared a blueprint with you, Heavy Infantry Training Camp.]
[Fang Hao shared a purple blueprint with you, Lionheart Knight Training Camp.]
[Fang Hao shared a blueprint with you, Generation Field Cannon Blueprint.]
[......]
Information appeared as if flooding the screen.
Blueprints that were hard to obtain through great efforts, today were being shared all at once.
This feeling was like being in a dream.
After a good while, reconfirming these were all genuine.
Bai Xuan picked up a glass of wine, took a light sip, and calmed her excited emotions.
"This step was the right choice, the right choice…"
Then, Bai Xuan immediately sent this message to the Alliance channel.
They agreed to all join Fang Hao's territory together in the afternoon.
...
Return to the main city.
It was already approaching noon.
After coming out from Bai Xuan's place, Fang Hao made a detour to the Trade Alliance shop and had a chat with the Goblin, Moru.
It was not only Station 032, but the headquarters had also received a large amount of purple Troll equipment.
The price of Troll equipment had been drastically pulled down to rock bottom.
The purple equipment was now on par with the blue.
This disrupted the market balance.
The Trade Alliance would no longer accept it, and selling it as blue was not appropriate.
They could only store it in the warehouse for now, waiting for a time when they had giants proficient with hammers to equip it.
After having lunch.
Bone Dragons roared across the sky.
A figure fell straight from the air.
With a tall figure, her body covered in black carapace, and sharp protrusions on her back.
It was Fateweaver - Domina.
Fang Hao had contacted her yesterday to come over.
Domina landed directly in the central square, looking at the nearby city that had been patched up, her eyes flashing with confusion.
Had there been a battle here?
Why did it look like this?
After watching for a while, she headed towards the lord's mansion.
...
Hearing footsteps outside the door.
Fang Hao looked up to see the tall Domina, wrapped in black carapace, walking in.
"Lord," Domina bowed slightly.
Her tall figure made her walk resemble that of a model.
However, the spider appendages swinging on her back looked dangerous to humans.
"Domina, you're here. Have a seat!" Fang Hao said smilingly.
Domina sat down and immediately asked, "My lord, what happened here? I see many buildings outside bear marks of repair."
Not just repairs, some places were still collapsed.
"Yes, we were under some attacks, but there's no danger now," Fang Hao replied.
Domina frowned slightly, "Attack? Who were they? I can bring troops to clean them up."
It seemed she thought she was called to address the main city being attacked.
"No need, it has already been resolved," Fang Hao said.
His gaze deliberately glanced at Domina's tier.
She was now Green Tier 9, not considered a high-tier hero within the territory.
But Domina was in charge of the Mithril Mine excavation work in the territory.
Which was also very important.
Once Domina was replaced, the entire Webweaver camp and the Mithril Mine would undergo major changes.
That would be troublesome.
"Oh, then Lord, did you have me come here for something important?" She asked, her cheeks suddenly flushing.
Her expression was somewhat uneasy, her eyes occasionally darting this way.
Seeing her demeanor, Fang Hao knew she was thinking of something else.
After all, some of Domina's special small hobbies.
Were also a way to increase Loyalty.
Cough, cough.
Clearing his throat softly, Fang Hao said, "There will be time for games later, but take a look at this first, see if it helps you."
Saying that, he took out an Excitation Crystal and handed it to Domina.
As soon as she received it, her eyes instantly widened, full of surprise.
"What's wrong?"
"Lo-lord, I feel a strong energy in this, it should be very helpful for our enhancement," Domina said excitedly.
"Can you use it?"
"Lord, you are giving this to me?"
"Yes, otherwise why would I call you here?"
The description said, useful only for arthropod-type troops.
In the territory, the troops in the Webweaver camp belonged to the arthropod type.
Moreover, Domina's loyalty was high, and the work she supervised was done conscientiously.
The mine was running smoothly, and she also had some good interests.
It was right to support her.
"Thank you, my lord."
[Fateweaver - Domina's Loyalty increased by 1 point, current Loyalty is 99.]
While she thanked him, a system notification followed immediately.
Loyalty increased by 1 point, reaching 99.
Fang Hao did not mind but said, "Don't thank me yet, first see how to use it."
Domina nodded, tilted her head back, opened her mouth, and squeezed the Crystal Stone over her mouth.
Crack!
A crisp sound.
The Crystal Stone instantly shattered, the dark green liquid inside flowing into her mouth.
Even the surface shards turned into liquid at the moment of breaking.
Domina swallowed it down directly.
Her throat moved.
Straight into her stomach.
Domina's state began to change.
She started to breathe abnormally rapidly, her skin reddening as if feverish.
The carapace wrapping her outside also turned from black to a faint, dark green pattern.
Bang!
A sound like a bowstring being released echoed.
In an instant, dense white spider silk exploded around Domina.
The next second, it rapidly contracted, wrapping layers around her body.
On the spot, a huge chrysalis was formed.
