After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 176

The discussions continued for about half an hour before it was done.

The attendees chatted as they waited to be dismissed, but Althea turned her head to the aborigines. "I’m curious about something."

"Ask ahead, Ms. Althea."

"As you may have noticed, a lot of our people have formed their own teams." She began, "Do we have a team system available outside?"

The aborigines looked at each other before answering. They kept forgetting the lord and everyone else did not have the common sense they grew up with.

As always, it was the erudite Oslo who explained. "Well, there is nothing that could stop a group of people from forming teams." He said, pausing, "However, while forming teams is technically arbitrary, forming official teams is not."

"Official teams?" Gru asked, also interested in this topic.

"Official teams are basically teams from one territory who could deal or do business with other territories. Like an individual requiring a legitimate identity before doing any business at all."

Hearing ’other territories’ excited the two old people quite a bit. They had heard about the other territories and did hope to know more.

Both of them traveled intensively back in Terran. With their age, they had already been exposed to most cultures in existence. They were particularly looking forward to seeing new ones.

Oslo looked at them and continued to speak. "After all, territories must protect themselves. Speaking of this…

"If a group of people exceeded a hundred people, forming an official group would be mandatory. Most territories would choose to disband this group themselves otherwise."

Althea nodded in understanding. This was probably to prevent the creation of a power outside the lord’s control.

That said, she had a hunch that a new tab in her Lord Panel would show information about the Teams when they were available.

"Similarly, once made official, the registered team will have the sole right to their name. Anyone purposely making unapproved deals in the name of another team would be punishable by law."

That was to say, the law from the system. As for how the system punished people, she heard it ranged from automatic deduction of items of the space, or banning of certain skills, to the reduction of important stats among others...

"There are a lot of types of Official Teams, the most common of which are the Trade Teams and Mercenary Teams.

"In either case, the registration must pass through the village center."

"We can do this now?"

Oslo shook his head. "From what I know, the requirement is a Level 3 Village. It would also be through the village/town/city center that the updated lists of teams and their territories are listed. Of course, there’s a small fee to pay."

Gru was very curious about everything, especially the aborigines’ territory. Could he buy new seeds from these teams in the future? "How much?"

"It depends on the Lord."

Clutch nodded. "I once had to hire a mercenary team to gather some materials for me. The initial payment for access to the list of names costs about a silver. The hiring costs were a bit more expensive."
