Chapter 690 00690 3rd conference.

3rd conference covering the agenda for distributing four other cities in Atlanta. As there is a huge reward at stake for the city, it is safe to assume that several clans are involved.

We don't know when it will end. It may end sooner than expected or later than expected. After all, we narrowed the problem down to one through the second conference.

The only thing that's clear is that today's third meeting will shorten the perimeter around Atlanta. Does the mercenary give up or does the east give up? In the end, this was the problem.

“Bro, we're here. ”

It took me about 30 minutes to get to the meeting point.

Nearby users can be divided into two broad categories. Users who are directly participating in the conversation and those who are watching nearby. With the exception of those who assist in the meeting, of course, the ability to participate directly is limited to the Clan Road rank.

“Clan Road. Good luck.” Tran s lat ed by ｊpmt l .c o m

“I'll see you later. ”

After receiving the support of Shin Jae Ryong, I took a large step towards the square. "Mercenary Road has arrived!” I heard a shout. I slowly stepped down the stairs in an increasingly loud noise.

My city square has a slightly unusual structure. The central stage and staircase with rounded stages surround the surrounding area. From a distance, it was similar to the large open air theater.

This place was supposed to be old and dirty too, but it was not enough to make my eyes frown as I went through the previous meetings. In a good way, there is an old-fashioned atmosphere with traces of time remaining.

Soon after stopping at the end of the stairs, the central place of the meeting was noticed. On the stage were the gun commanders leading each expedition and their clan lords. The Eastern expedition where Cho Sung-ho died was attended by Sung-hyun, Seonjoon, and Kim Duckfil. It's been a long time since anyone's seen him.

There were about 100 people on the stage, but the gutter was quite quiet. Some of them looked at me with an unbelievable look on their faces, and there were few people who stood there with their eyes closed. With a mixture of illusions and distractions, I slowly moved on.

T ran sl at e d b y Ｊpｍ t l.c oｍ “You're really here. ”

Park Da-yeon, who was standing next to Han So-young, sat on the stage and talked with a big smile. Apparently, they've been selected as the concierge for today's meeting. I nodded lightly, thinking he had made a fortune.

“I heard a rumor yesterday. So before we get into this meeting, I'd like to sincerely congratulate you on the rebirth of the Mercenary Road. ”

Bak Da-yeon moved her feet while smiling and talking, touching someone. The handsome young man sitting next to Han Soyoung was surprised and puzzled. However, when Park Da-yeon immediately showed an evil look, she was pouting and shivering.

“No, thanks. I'm going to sit over here. ”

I know what that means, but I refused to say yes. It was because my brother who was sitting on the left side of the stage made me a seat. And for once, you didn't want to see the reaction.

“Ah…. Would you?"

This time, Park Da-yeon smiled tremblingly. Some users just looked at me like that, but others looked surprised. You seem pretty surprised that I refused to sit next to you.

In fact, if you had left your seat at the beginning. Even after hearing the rumors, I let another user sit down.... I don't know. I don't feel good thinking about where I've always been, even if I don't have a seat.

“Soo-hyun, welcome. It's a little late for that.”

Although I still had a somewhat awkward look, my brother welcomed me with a much cleaner look than before.

“You're here earlier than I expected. ”

“Right? Hahaha! ”

The moment he sat next to me with a moderate rebuke, he suddenly smiled loudly as if someone was asking him to listen, then stood up and stared at the top. However, Han So-young was still expressionless. When I first appeared, I only caught one eye, but I didn't see any reaction.

Soon, Han Soyoung looked around and nodded lightly.

“Here. Then I declare a third conference! ” Tr a n sl a t e d b y ｊpｍt l.ｃ o ｍ

I was surprised to hear Han So-young say that for a moment, but fortunately, the protagonist of the beautiful voice (?) It was Park Da Yeon. I think Han So-young nodded a moment ago.

Park Da-yeon, who took a slight breath as if she was a little nervous, slowly looked back at me.

“Ah. Mercenary Road. Did you hear about the second conference? I can briefly explain if you need me to. ”

It's nice to say as if I forgot, but it's because of the trembling voice. I felt like I knew the inside of it somehow. I laughed. And he shook his head quietly.

“No, thanks. because I've heard a little bit about what's needed to happen. ”

“Ah! I see. ”

Her complexion brightened. It's a relief that you don't have to say anything that might be uncomfortable.

Park Da Yeon cleared her throat for a moment and said.

“Okay, I don't know how to say this, so I'm going to ask you straight away. Would the Mercenary Clan like the authority to run the city in return for the balls they've built in this raid? ”

“That's two words of nagging. ”

I answered clearly.

Then the whole meeting place just started buzzing with answers.

“Then…. ”

Inside, Park Da-yeon subtly blurred her words and turned her gaze. It was the direction where the Eastern people were sitting. I was thoughtful.

There are currently four cities left. Even if the South already has a city, it's okay. Then we have three cities left to compete in: east, west, north and mercenary. Tra n s lat e d by ｊpｍtl.c oｍ

The East has chosen to resist the Machinery. In a certain way, it was a natural choice. He would have decided it was better to deal with a clan than to deal with two territories that are allies. And given the fact that the Machinery was a member of the South, there's a lot to say.

I thought about it and moved my chin around. I had to clean my mouth today.

After a while.

“Let me tell you something first. ”

A man stood up and asked for permission to speak. It was from the Eastern region, too, without seeing it twice.

“First of all, I personally respect the opinion of the Mercenary Road. The Mercenary Clan has had the most revolutionary attack on the Steel Mountains, and no one will argue with that on a mere basis. ”

At first, I wanted to admit to something, but it's different. The man emphasized that it was simply public. I clasp my arms and stare across.

“But no matter how high the ball is, when you think about it in terms of the major issues of the city, I don't think it's necessarily in public order. Being the main clan in a city means you have to have that kind of capability. … so I dare to ask Mercenary Lord here. ”

Later, the man stopped looking around and opened his mouth, facing me from the front.

“Assuming you're in charge of a city. How does the Mercenary Road develop cities in the Mercenary Clan? I want to hear a long-term vision of it. ”

I said, what are you talking about? Long-term vision. Hahaha.

“There's no such thing. Not yet.”

I shake my head in excitement, smiling freshly.

“… Yes? ”

The man looks embarrassed. T rans l a t ed by Jpm t l .ｃ o ｍ

“It's only been three days since I got back. All I've done is listen to what's going on. But what is the longer-term vision? ”

“Oh, no... ”

I stuttered as if I didn't expect a man to hear this. It looked like a face that didn't know whether to smile or cry.

I kept saying it.

“And if you make one mistake, the dictionary meaning of the vision is a picture of the future. That doesn't fit the situation. The urgency is to make this ruined city a place for users to live. Suddenly, what a long-term vision. And that's what we're going to have to do from the moment we get there. ”

“Ha, but that's absolutely necessary...! ”

“Oh, of course I do. Long-term vision, so if you want to hear it, come see me when it's over. I'd love to have a cup of tea with you and keep you calm. ”

“ ……. ”

A light smile flowed into the intestine. The man with a red face said, Moore well, and chewed his mouth. Yeah, I don't think you have anything to say. So sit down.

“I don't think so. ”

At that moment, the woman just to the left, sitting in Salmoney's seat, raises her head. The woman looked at the top late and asked for permission to speak, then turned around and looked at me.

“The most pressing issue is the rebuilding of this city. That's exactly what I'm saying. We can establish a long-term vision as we speak. But back to square one. Which clan has the ability to take over the city from the start. I can't help but question that. ”

“Are you saying that our money is not qualified? ”

“Unqualified? I never said anything so extreme. Ah! Of course, I'll admit that the Machinery is an exceptional clan in terms of combat. But cities are not places for combat. It's a place where users live. Therefore, administrative work is very important, but there may be a slight shortage in such areas. That's what I'm saying.”

“It's not enough. That's interesting. I'd like to hear more about that. ”

Then the smiling woman said as if she was waiting.

“Well, first of all, I can hear that you have very little experience, no experience at all. I know that the machine is built on mercenary work. And he's a free man, not from the North. And most of all, it's the least of my worries that there are fewer people. The fact that only 50 clans are represented in a city that may be thousands of people... ”

The woman purposely shrugs her shoulders, blurring her words.

“So, to be a major clan, you have to have a large number of people. Is that what you mean?”

“That's what it means when you look at it the way it is. ”

“Hard to agree. A large number of people does not necessarily mean a good clan. ”

“So we said we'd see it from a general point of view. Were there any representative clans with fewer people, except in special circumstances? That is to say, a clan that manages a city should be the best clan that is pure and without any flaws, even if there is no very good part of it. That's what I'm saying.”

They're shooting at the Machinery in the open.

“Obviously, I agree that the best clan should be the main clan. So let me ask you a question. ”

I raise my ceremonial jaw.

“Of those large clans, are there any that are higher ranked than our Mercenary Clan? ”

At that moment, a light of agitation struck the eyes of the woman.

“Well, that's... ”

“For the record, the ratings printed on user information are the most objective indicators of where your clan is located, as they only rise to 100%. Anyway, as long as it's not stupid, you know it. … so, is there? ”

The woman's collar swallows.

“Well, I mean...! This, the number of people... I can take administrative duties required for city management.... By saying that it has an important influence... ”

Still, if you don't want to leave, the woman stutters and finishes her speech. Then, like a parrot, I kept saying the same thing, and I let out a short sigh.

“The number of people keeps saying.... And I'm going to tell you that we have plans to get more people soon. ”

Then I slowly got up and looked around at the user staring at the stage dazed.

“I have a question for everyone here today. ”

If they didn't expect me to ask questions, the users were dumbfounded.

“If you were to recruit new families from our merchants after this meeting, would any of you join us? Raise your hands lightly for those willing to join. ”

At first, the users remained still. However, soon after one or two people started raising their hands, they conventionally raised their hands beyond measure. Even if I looked around roughly, I could see thousands of them lightly.

After looking around, I turned my gaze back to where the woman was standing.

“Hm. A lot. ”

“ ……. ”

She looks at the user with her hands raised, her face covered in dirt, and shuts up.

“In a few hours, our machine will be the clan with the most people. Are you relieved now? ”

The woman opened her mouth no more. Just staring at the ground, he suddenly sat down tightly on his lower lip.

I stand face to face with one hand, then snap my chin toward the sunken east.

The first two were wet, and now the next batsman.
