284 – Marsh Dragon Territory

In order for the aristocratic families to defend the rear and not send troops to join the vanguard army, they must pay a huge amount of resources.
The higher the tier of the family, the more resources must be paid.

Of course, higher-tier aristocratic families and magnus families can defend more prosperous territories.

Some aristocratic families that have begun to decline will have the elites of their family join the vanguard army and hunt Hollow Demons in order to make achievements and earn resources.
In this way, they won’t have to bear the obligation of paying a huge amount of resources.

In addition, if those aristocratic families can capture other territories in the Hollow Demon Battlefield and defend them, the Qianyuan Republic will recognize that the territories belong to them.

Thanks to this policy, numerous aristocratic families will work together to seize one territory after another from Hollow Demons.

“That’s it! Marsh Dragon Territory! It’s safer here!”

Shu Feng went forward and finally chose Marsh Dragon Territory, which is surrounded by a large marsh and is located at the edge of the Hollow Demon Battlefield.

The large marsh surrounding Marsh Dragon Territory is equivalent to a natural barrier, blocking large-scale attacks of Hollow Demons.
As for Psionic Hollow Demons, who don’t have a physical body and can freely traverse the marsh, they can be easily targeted.

Wu Kuang’s gaze swept Shu Feng and fell on other people, and he said indifferently, “Take your armies to defend your respective territories within seven days.”

After saying that, Wu Kuang turned around and left the White Tiger Hall.

After Wu Kuang left, everyone quickly left, went to the barracks, and took their soldiers to a super large teleportation array leading to the Hollow Demon Battlefield.

Li Xuanyi came to Shu Feng’s side and asked, “Shu Feng, why don’t I bring my people to help you guard Marsh Dragon Territory?”

Shu Feng asked back, a flash of surprise in his eyes: “Can you do that? What about the Li Family?”

Li Xuanyi is a real genius.
He not only possesses amazing cultivation talent, but is also proficient in management.
He and Zhao Zixin helped Shu Feng manage the World of Badge Users before.

Although Shu Feng’s management skills aren’t bad either, but he can’t compare to Li Xuanyi.
After all, he put all his attention into cultivation.

Li Xuanyi smiled faintly and said, “The Li Family is large.
Whether I’m present or not, it won’t make any difference.
The Li Family sent people both to join the vanguard Army and to defend a territory.
I don’t need to do anything.”

Luo Feng walked over and said with a smile, “Add me in! I have nowhere to go.
I might as well go to the Marsh Dragon Territory and take it easy!”

The Aristocratic Family Mobilization Order is the highest level of conscription in the Qianyuan Republic.
Every aristocratic family and rich family must send their children to join the war.
Therefore, the aristocratic families and magnus families have three wives and four concubines and have numerous descendants.
Generally, people without descendants aren’t even qualified to compete for the position of patriarch.

Shu Feng replied with a smile, “Since I’m short on people, I’m happy to accept your help.”

The three quickly arrived at the barracks.

“Greetings, sir!”

While leading 2,000 badge users, Yanice saluted Shu Feng and spoke thusly.

Li Xuanyi’s eyes lit up, and he said, “How beautiful! Awesome! Shu Feng, to have such a beauty as your subordinate, you’re really impressive!”

“Three Spirit Grandmasters! Shu Feng has deep reserves.”

Luo Feng swept the three Spirit Grandmaster realm powerhouses next to Yanice with his eyes.

“Let’s go!”

The group led the 2,000 badge users to the super-large teleportation array in the barracks.

Along with a flash of light, they were sent to a vast square.
On the square, there are spirit force armored vehicles stationed.

The spirit force armored vehicles took Shu Feng and his party to the Marsh Dragon Territory.

Five days later, the vast Marsh Dragon Territory surrounded by a marsh appeared in front of Shu Feng.

“What a barren territory!”

When Shu Feng entered the Marsh Dragon Territory, he saw ferocious lizardmen, rabbit demi-humans, dog demi-humans, and humans.

In the Marsh Dragon Territory, there are scattered villages and only one city — Marsh Dragon City.

The outwall of Marsh Dragon City isn’t high, only three meters tall, and it is quite worn out.
It looks like it hasn’t been repaired in a long time.
Furthermore, most of the stones composing the outwall are just ordinary stones.
A Spirit Venerable realm powerhouse can cut such an outwall to pieces with a sword strike.

The lord manor of Marsh Dragon City is a cold stone castle.
After quickly handing things over, the previous manager immediately left this forsaken place.

When Shu Feng became the master of the Marsh Dragon Territory, he held the fate of its residents in the palm of his hand.
However, he also has two obligations, that is, to pay 10 billion credits to the military of the Qianyuan Republic every month and to guard the Marsh Dragon Territory and prevent it from being captured by Hollow Demons.

If the Marsh Dragon Territory is captured by Hollow Demons, Shu Feng will not only lose the Marsh Dragon Territory, but will also need to compensate the Qianyuan Republic with more than 1 trillion.
In addition, if this affects the overall situation, he may be disposed of via military law.

Once Shu Feng, Li Xuanyi, and Luo Feng arrived at the Marsh Dragon Territory, they began to patrol the Marsh Dragon Territory and check its situation.

A dozen plus days later, in the conference hall of the Marsh Dragon Territory’s city lord manor, there were five people sitting at a long table.
The five people are Shu Feng, Li Xuanyi, Luo Feng, Yanice, and Hanani.

Hanani was not only an international model, but also had her own companies on Blue Star.
She has outstanding management skills.
When she heard that the Marsh Dragon Territory lacks management talents, she volunteered to help.

“I had a look at the accounts of the Marsh Dragon Territory.
At present, the income of the Marsh Dragon Territory mainly stems from sales tax and is less than 5 million per month.”

“We must pay 10 billion to the military every month.
In addition, there’s still the purchase of 200,000 residents, which cost 200 billion.
The territory’s acquisition cost is 1 trillion.”

“That is to say, because of this territory, we owe more than 1.2 trillion to the military.
The interest alone is much higher than our tax revenue.
We can’t go on like this.”

Hanani’s beautiful eyes constricted and she spoke thusly.

Shu Feng smiled slightly and said, “If that wasn’t the case, then it wouldn’t be my turn to guard this territory.
It’s better to guard this place than to go to a dangerous place like the vanguard army.”

“Shu Feng, are you going to manage the Marsh Dragon Territory earnestly or just use it as a means to avoid military conscription? The investment into the Marsh Dragon Territory hinges on this.”

“If you just use it as a means to avoid military conscription, then we can maintain the status quo.
After all, in order to develop the Marsh Dragon Territory, a huge number of resources have to be invested.” Li Xuanyi explained.
