Chapter 600: Chatur
There is a common island that is under the rule of the Six nations within the Planet and Sam along with Yodha and the Crown Prince Lokesh, went together with a Consummate level Guardian.
When they arrived at the place, they could see more than twenty Consummate realm cultivators and there are some stone houses where some more people are staying.
There is a large stone cave they are guarding. Apart from them, a team of three came from every other nation as well all eighteen members gathered.
"You will arrive at the stone Palace and there would be a team of people waiting for you there to take you to the castle which we are using as the main base. Inside the stone Palace, there are portals leading to the different planets.
You cannot get to fight in the stone palace or you will be blacklisted for three months continuously and the same rule applied for the three hundred yards radius from that Palace.
Since you got the required information, take care of it as soon as possible."
Sam nodded and entered the stone cave and when he came out of the cave, he is waking out of a door into a large hall of a stone palace. He turned around to see some more people coming out of the different doors and walk out of the hall through the main entrance.
Outside the hall, there is a large front yard full of people coming in and going out.
He went out and saw a team of people and met them. Soon, the remaining five people from the five other nations all came out and joined them and all of them walked out of the palace yard and climbed on the mounts.
What surprised Sam is that this place doesn't have the miasma of the Naga Loka. It is as if he was back in his normal world again.
He sat on the large bear-like beasts running as he asked the person who is riding the mount.
"What is the latest attack of Union on us?"
"The Volcano cannon. They wanted to capture that place. It is an important resource point as many beasts and resources came out of that."
Sam nodded and went over the details he has on the Union. Even though this place is a world of its own and has resources, the way the resources exist in this place is quite unique.
Because here there are no real mines. Even though, they call them mines, they are not exactly normal mines, where people go and dig out the ore.
In fact, any resource they get here is not exactly a normal resource of a normal world. At least most of them.
Because the resource points in this world are literal resource points. For example, the volcano cannon they talked about is a resource point that shoots out a treasure every month along with a bunch of Lava and some beasts or golems or similar threats.
The planet which Sam is representing which is also called the Planet Nagin has occupied the resource point and the various factions that belong to Nagin will have their candidates participate and fight for the treasures.
Sometimes, they cut a deal with some other planet's people and let some of them participate in an exchange for something of the same value.
The Volcano cannon is a resource point that sends herbs, beasts, metals, and so on. That is why it is a complex resource point as for resource points they call mines, they only give the metals and for the resource points they call the farm, they give out only herbs. As for the resource point that only gives out beasts, they call it Incubator. Even though there are many other uses of a resource point, they are all secondary.
The resource points give out resources in a particular pattern. One of them might give out daily and one of them would give one every week some of them only give out annually.
As of now, there are five resource points that give out weekly resources that actually belonged to the Nagin but were occupied by the sect in the past three months.
Even though, the weekly resource points are the lowest level resource points of the main base of the Nagin. Because the daily resource points wouldn't give some great quality resources and they are held by individual factions themselves within the Nagin base and the Union doesn't care about them.
Now, the first task Sam has is that he needs to get back the five resource points and also save the Volcanic cannon which is currently under the radar of the Union sect.
He reached the Nagin Castle uneventfully. The castle is extremely large. It is larger than the Imperial Palace, but it doesn't have the magnificent stature of the Imperial Palace.
Inside the castle, the rooms are used as dormitories and within the castle compound, there are many stone houses that are easily recognizable as the houses made by the earth element users without putting much thought through it.
Sam was led to one of the houses just to show his place of rest and then was led to a meeting room in the castle.
There some important members are waiting. All Nagas from the different nations are standing together and even the humans are inside.
Sam and the five other members who came along with him are standing.
A Naga stood up and he is from the Flavos empire.
"You six are going to be the six special commanders in the castle until the whole situation with the Union sect is settled and you can access the resources and the members of all squads and the individual members of the Nagin Castle without any trouble.
If there is any form of conflict between you guys regarding the people you need or the resources or the networks you get, you have to come and meet the six commanders of the castle and have us vote in which you have split those resources or who they should go to.
After some details, Sam left the conference room with the badge he has with him and the list of the members of the Nagin castle and the hierarchy here.
There are thirty-six squads at this moment and the squad with the least members has fifty members in it. Apart from that, there are hundreds of individual members.
All these people came from the nations of Nagin for different reasons, some of them are military personal and some of them are accidental criminals who seek redemption.
Sam looked at the bundle of papers in his hands and smirked.
At this moment, he going to a squad leader's place. This squad is completely made up of Mov empire's members.
After all, no matter how united they want to be, they have their differences and there are some squads that truly belong to different nations.
When he went to that room in the castle and there the squad leader is already waiting for him.
His name Ranga and after discussing some things with him, Sam picked up a squad member that was already arranged for him and started walking out of the castle.
This guy is the tour guide to Sam, but he also noticed that he is not exactly popular on that team. His name is chatur and he came here six months ago and he is not particularly great at anything. He is an extremely balanced candidate, at least which is what the details regarding him said.
They went back to Sam's stone house and sat down before Sam asked.
"Okay, Chatur what is the deal with this Union sect. I got the info from the emperor and he said that this war started because we are nearest to the Union sect. Is it true?"
"What makes you think it is not true?"
"It might be true, but I think there is more to it. Because, if the Union sect really picked us as the target because we are nearest. It cannot be the only reason. There should be a trigger. What is the trigger?"
"A new resource point appeared. There is a conflict. Let us just put it in a way that our commanders made a stupid move by trying to play dirty with all the other five castles. They wanted to play a smart game by thinking that they are so much better than the rest of the leaders and it backfired.
The remaining five castles were cut a deal to not go to war with us, but they also said that they wouldn't help us at all. The Union sect though, wouldn't take the deal, because they have the most resources and our bottom line which we are giving away is nothing but coin change for them.
They are provoked and they are flexing their strength on us."
Sam went into deep thought, before asking.
"Let us put it aside for now. What do you know about the Merchant union?"
"Merchant Union? They are actually a joint organization that was made by the Six Castles. Why you want to buy something from other planets?"
"I want to buy some big things, I want you to get me in touch with the merchant union member of our castle. The deal is actually quite big. Meanwhile, do you have any maps of the resource points that were occupied by the Union sect?"
"I have all of them. Which one do you want?"
Sam was surprised. He didn't think he would receive such an answer.
"What do you mean, all of them?"
"I have map and layout of every single known resource point in this layer of the Union dimension."
