Chapter 494 - 295: The Prayer of the Holy Dragon’s Son
The Goblin city-state located in the western continent obviously didn’t have the privilege to refuse the demands made by Holy Dragon Noah, and thus, Noah also gained a vassal presence in the West.
Indeed, just a vassal. Noah did not choose to bring the Goblin city-state under his rule, nor did he intend to relocate it across hundreds of thousands of miles. Although there was such an idea initially, this plan has been canceled.
Mainly, after seeing the goblins, Noah felt he couldn’t tolerate these green-skinned creatures; they challenged his aesthetic sense. Noah didn’t want these green creatures frolicking under his nose every day.
Thus, he chose to turn a blind eye and would provide military assistance in exchange for the Goblin engineers’ technical support for the Holy Dragon’s Land.
The Goblin city-state must ensure at least fifty engineers are stationed in the Holy Dragon’s Land to offer technical aid in weapon development, with a requirement to increase this total by ten every decade.
Noah did not specify particular engineers since he was still unfamiliar with the Goblin city-state. Specific requirements can be raised once the engineers settle in and begin weapon development.
This outcome could be considered akin to the initial suggestion from the mage to Noah. However, Noah didn’t need to spend a fortune recruiting but instead received high-end technical talents from the vassal Goblin city-state as tribute.
Of course, in return, the goblins would receive military assistance from the Eastern Holy Dragon, with a Cloud Giant legion stationed long-term near the Goblin city-state, protecting these fragile green-skinned dwarfs.
As for the impact this legion would have on the surrounding regional situation, Noah didn’t care; it would inevitably be a positive change for the goblins.
This group of arms dealers would undoubtedly expand their living space, and their political status relative to surrounding areas would rapidly increase, allowing them to acquire more resources.
