"Cooperate in developing the Underworld?"
"Is that true? Would the Bay Territory be so kind-hearted?"
"Could this be a trap set by those cunning humans? Have we exposed any flaws?"
"That shouldn't be the case. The Bay Territory wouldn't benefit from making a move against us, and they'd lose a big customer."
"That's also true. Even if we lose a squad, the loss wouldn't compare to the nearly 2 million gold coins each month in human terms."
"Should we give it a try? If we succeed..."
"It's worth a shot!"

Just as they had said, this in-depth collaboration with the Bay Territory had risks, but they were small and the potential rewards much greater!
Worth a try!

The "pitter-patter" of raindrops drifted down.
On the busy construction site, only a few Engineering Golems continued to work in silence.
