Chapter 812 - Territorial Issues
"Good Afternoon your majesty."
"Hmm!"
Landon acknowledged everyone’s greetings and quickly took a seat.
He had just come back from the barracks after several long hours of personally guiding those who would go out with him for his mission.
And now, he was here for a meeting with government officials from different departments which overlook Wildlife, fishing, other conversation laws and tourism.
Everyone talked for a bit while waiting for the meeting to officially begin.
’Ding!’
It was now 2 P.M.
They went through the meeting agenda and quickly discussed several key points one by one.
With Baymard’s new territories, they had to handle many things with extra care and attention.
And so far, they were happy with their results
Nonetheless, they still met up from time to time to discuss any issues that they met along the way, as well as discuss any points tht needed to be improved.
Everyone was fully engaged in the meeting.
.
Minister Frodo took a sip of water and moistened his throat.
"Your majesty, 2 days ago, the soldiers assigned to search the new territories have completed their mission of identifying all dangerous species and regions within the territories.
So now, we can begin implementing the conservation plan for these species." Frodo said anxiously.
He was truly scared that people would get hurt within the new territories if they didn’t hurry it up.
It took 2 and a half months for the soldiers to completely scout the entire region, and every passing day and week only gave him sleepless nights.
Why?
Because from the reports, some people end up dying from several deadly creatures around.
Of course, these creatures dared not lurk around communities... Except they were too hungry and were ready to risk it.
Many a time, they stayed far in the woods or close to the deserted highways where they could attack travellers and drag them away.
It was very rare for the creatures to go into the cities or towns.
But many weren’t scared of little villages, so that was also bad as well.
Some people got dragged away from their huts by wolves in the middle of the night.
These creatures dared not attack large communities because such communities typically had city/town walls with archers and several hundreds of thousands of knights who would rip them to pieces.
They were smart.
They stayed along the roads or deep in the forest, waiting for hunters, trespassers and even small groups of knights who were secretly passing through the territory.
Sometimes, secret pathways in the forests could lead to one’s death.
Back to the matter of the villages, before these communities were under Baymard, they were attacked at least thrice every month.
At times, those attacked would be able to fight off these animals leaving them injured.
But other times, they would end up dead instead.
Currently, with Baymard protecting them, the soldiers protected them fiercely and kept them safe all day long.
Which gave many peace.
However, this was far from enough because the main issue wasn’t solved yet.
They needed to fully implement their plans for the people to remain safe.
And now that they have finished scouting the area, it was time to put their strategy in motion.
Landon and the rest of the ministers agreed as well.
.
"Your majesty, I agree with minister Frodo.
From the map and doc.u.ments distributed, we can see the locations that had the most deadly creatures in them, as well as what animal species can be found in those regions.
So just as planned, I propose that we pick one of the zones and transport all endangered species there.
They can keep that location as their home and live freely within it.
Because we can’t continue allowing them to live everywhere.
It would be dangerous to us as humans."
"Agreed!
There are monstrous creatures there that can swallow us whole.
So allowing them to spread everywhere would be too dangerous."
Everyone gave their opinions on the matter.
And Landon couldn’t blame them at all.
This wasn’t earth that had seemingly average and docile creatures here and there.
No!
Most of the creatures here were overly large and had more tricks up their sleeves for survival.
From those that could make one frozen for days, to retractable claws like Wolverine in X-men.
F***!
Even some bugs like caterpillars were the size of a wolf with their antennas as sharp as blades, ready to slash their opponents in half.
This world was weird but dangerous.
That said, the caterpillar of all things was now an endangered specie.
Of course, all the dangerous creatures would be transferred to one location, allowing only the seemingly friendly ones behind, like the pink rabbits, ducks, wild boars, deers, bisons and so on.
And hunters could only hunt those that they allowed.
.
Everyone felt like this was reasonable.
"Your majesty, before we transport them, we should find a way to enclose the selected area.
So maybe we should place a metal-barred fence and put warning signs on it telling people about the dangers and importance of the creatures there.
Your majesty, this was, we will also be saving them from what you call poachers.
This way, we’ll be able to keep both animals and humans safe."
"Hmhm.
We’ll give them a massive region with several hills and stretches of forest.
But the problem is, where do we place them?"
Everyone looked at the map and thought deeply before glancing at Landon.
"Your majesty, what do you think?"
Landon just looked at them and smiled before taking his pen and circling a region on the map.
"Here!
Let’s do it around this cliffside."
Landon chose this region because he didn’t want the reserve to be close to any communities, and this was by far the furthest choice.
For him, it was perfect.
As for the fencing matters, that was definitely a must.
Like he said, this wasn’t earth.
So he couldn’t have the typical open wildlife reserve style that he was used to seeing.
Just looking at the map before him, some regions have triple X’s while others had a whopping 5 X’s in red, which meant that if one even dated to hike or sleep in those regions, the chances the, they would die without even knowing it.
The regions with just 1 or 2 ’X’ signs marked in them were the safest regions within these new territories.
And he intended to lower the danger levels of regions marked with 3 ’X’s and above.
At least that was his goal at the moment.
More still, he intended to kick up tourism in these regions.
So fishing, camping and other nature activities would be fully realized in these territories.
Because even though the many Baymardians loved living in the city, there were times that they felt like going hunting or taking a hiking trip every now and then.
And it was their job to provide the citizens various ways to relax.
But how could they do that with such dangerous creatures kidnapping people here and there?
The number of missing people over the years is just too overwhelming.
That’s why they needed to deal with this matter fast.
.
Time went by swiftly and soon, the meeting was over.
Just like that, Landon juggled from one place to another, passing his days by busily.
Until finally, it was time for him to depart.
Thats right!
Marlo’s time us was up!
