Chapter 2737: Chapter 1178: Gaven’s Daughters

"A very reasonable speculation." Zalanda acknowledged, "Keeping an eye on the Silverziano family is essentially like keeping an eye on the tail of that old fox, Shoon VII."

"Watching them is useless. I suspect that this millennium-old fox’s focus isn’t in Amu, but rather on the new continent." Gaven boldly guessed, "After all, Sharptooth has been operating here for nearly a thousand years, and no one knows how many families secretly pledge allegiance to her or how many are her agents and spies.

If Shoon VII were to use some unconventional strengths, he would easily be detected.

But over on the new continent, it’s different. Like Sharptooth, they both start from scratch. In a situation where the enemy is in the open and they are hidden, he holds a competitive edge."

Thinking from one’s own perspective, if one were in Shoon VII’s position, they would certainly do the same.

There’s little information on Shoon VII’s early development in past lives, which is another piece of evidence.

This collective assassination event of the Masked Members, even if it had shocked Sharp-toothed Aiwikelasa Gran from Dragon Sleep, would ultimately end unresolved, with a clueless Thief Guild in the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, Bonefinger, becoming the scapegoat, ransacked and turned into new servants for Shattered Teeth.

During the following ten years, Shoon VII remained mostly quiet until Samaster artificially unlocked the Dragon Madness Lock, causing giant dragons all over Felen to go insane. Only then did Shoon VII re-emerge to execute his secret revenge plan.

By then, his power had already been formed, capable of rivaling Sharptooth in Amu.

Since the new continent was mentioned, Zalanda couldn’t help but ask, "What do you think about colonizing the new continent?"

"What else is there to think about? It’s merely a wolf’s plunder banquet." Gaven remarked disdainfully, "This is what Amu merchants and Karinshan’s Pashas are best at.

In the short term, the most flourishing business between Felen and the new continent will certainly be the slave trade.

We won’t make this bloody money.

Instead, we can wield the banner of liberating slaves, freeing as many as possible from Karinshan, as we currently face a huge shortage in population.

Whether it’s the development upstream of the Agis River or along the Conqueror Path, a massive population is needed."

Currently, Felen Continent still hosts two major slave kingdoms—the Kingdom of Ser under the control of the Red Robe Mage.

The other is the Karinshan Kingdom ruled by the Pasha, whose system is inherited from the Shoon Dynasty, no, more accurately from those Fire Giant Spirit nobles and Air Giant Spirit nobles.

This land has been under slavery ever since humans settled here, besides the deeply rooted inertia of rule.

The main reason is the stable supply of slaves—Chult Forest across the sea to the south is the Karinshan Pashas’ private land, plundering many slaves each year to meet their consumption.

"By doing this, won’t we sour relations thoroughly with those Karinshan Pashas, pushing them into our enemies’ arms?" Zalanda asked, puzzled, "Doesn’t this conflict with your usual concept of uniting all forces possible?"

Gaven flashed a sly smile and said, "I never said you should directly get involved. There are already many slave liberation organizations within Karinshan, just not large in scale, engaging in small skirmishes.

First, they lack strong financial support, and second, those liberated slaves have nowhere to go, many getting recaptured during their escape.

Now we have a unique condition. As long as they flee into the Marching Mountains, the Golia Tribe will take over, sending them into your territory.

If we don’t acknowledge it, can those Karinshan Pashas cross the Marching Mountains to bite you?"

The Marching Mountains and Mir Forest lie between the Karinshan Kingdom and Zalanda’s territory, making largescale military operations difficult.

Zalanda couldn’t help but smile, "Did you plan this all along? Is this Golia Mountain City meant to guard against the Karinshan Pashas?"

"Some things are merely serendipitous." Gaven shrugged, "If they inflict their own sins, whom can they blame? It’s high time they pay for their foolish actions; now’s the perfect opportunity.

Charging into Karinshan’s Monster Tribe isn’t less than charging into Thacel.

It may be unlikely to severely wound them, but disrupting the situation should be attainable.

The more chaotic it becomes, the more opportunities slaves have to escape."

"After the Winter Banquet ends, I’ll dispatch someone to layout this plan." Zalanda agreed with Gaven’s plan, "We’ve been out for too long, I wonder if those three newborn little ones are hungry."

The reminder from Zalanda made Gaven even more anxious; he was already eager to see his daughter, "Let’s go, check on them."

He promptly pulled Zalanda and activated precise teleportation, appearing directly on the Queen—where a teleportation positioning stone was placed.

This is a kind of magical creation, its function is to aid teleportation positioning. As long as you know the magical coordinates of this stone, you can perform precise teleportation, achieving an accuracy of ninety-nine percent in the absence of interference.

As they just returned to the Queen, they were greeted by a series of baby girl laughter.

Gaven glanced at Zalanda, "Can newborns laugh audibly?"

"How would I know?" Zalanda shrugged, "This is my first time being a mom, no experience!"

As they spoke, they had already walked into the nursery.

Three exquisite little ones, looking almost like they were printed from the same mold, lay side by side together.
