Only Grote remained in the room.
“Your Majesty.”
“Grote, has the Dark Pact recruited any adventurers from other worlds lately?”
Grote paused at the question, then rembered the group Stanley had ford, Immortal Souls. “Your Majesty, Stanley personally recruited three Undying from the Lost Planes.
He even signed contracts with them and used them as the core to form a new division, Immortal Souls.”
Just as he was about to sit down and take a sip of water, Li De nearly choked, ‘What?!’
Stanley had already recruited three players and even ford a departnt called Immortal Souls?
Could they be any quicker? It was one thing for the Crimson Mage Tower to recruit players, it was one of the most prominent factions in Green City.
But for the Dark Pact, an underground organization, to also have players recruited this quickly??
And Stanley's forward-thinking was so advanced that he even established a departnt primarily composed of players.
Sensing Li De’s surprise, Grote continued to explain.
“Lord Li De, Stanley said that the Undying possess the ability to resurrect. If properly cultivated, they could be of trendous help to the Dark Pact.
Moreover, the number of these Undying from the Lost Planes is extrely large. The very first wave to descend upon the Glory Main Plane totaled one hundred thousand. There may be even more to co later.
With their ability to resurrect, they have a greater chance of becoming powerful individuals.
To prepare for unknown future risks, Stanley decided to begin cultivating these Undying.
After all, to deal with the Undying, the best way to minimize our own losses is to use other Undying against them.
Stanley said that if you were here, you’d definitely approve of his plan.”
Though Grote had always held so skepticism about Stanley’s bold actions, after Li De asked, he still took the initiative to explain on Stanley’s behalf.
Everything they were doing was for the better developnt of the Dark Pact. Moreover, as fellow Second-generation Bloodline Descendants, the trust between them had long since grown strong, no longer in a state of mutual suspicion.
Li De could only nod in approval at Stanley’s move.
Among these Second-generation Bloodline Descendants, he had the least contact with Stanley.
After turning him into a Bloodline Descendant, other than taking him along to negotiate with the Mind Eater Wales, he had essentially left the entire Dark Pact under his managent. The two had t fewer than five tis.
Yet who would’ve thought that this forr dark priest from the Evening Bell Church had such vision, he actually decided to establish a player force and use players to counter players.
That move genuinely surprised him.
It seed he would need to pay more attention to this dark priest going forward. Perhaps, in the future, he could be put to even greater use.
Talents who were both powerful and intelligent like this were truly rare.
“Hm, not bad. The Undying from the Lost Planes indeed have great potential. Grote, don’t underestimate these fellows who may seem weak right now.
Each of them has the potential to beco top-tier professionals in the future. Although the path is still long, they stand a better chance than ordinary people.
Don’t be stingy with our resources toward them.
Of course, all of this hinges on our ability to completely control them. These Undying love to stir up trouble the most,” Li De reminded Grote with so concern.
Though the players were weak at the mont, as ti passed, they would gradually gain influence.
Although the operating rules of the Glory world ensured that the roles of Glory’s NPCs were irreplaceable by players, and that players couldn’t play a major role in the short term, the earlier the groundwork was laid, the more maneuverability there would be in the future.
Players may be a natural disaster, but in Li De’s eyes, they could also be a precious resource.
Currently, most factions in Glory had yet to recognize the players’ potential. If he could get ahead of the curve and win over a group of the most promising players, the future benefits could be enormous.
With that thought, Li De’s eyes already showed signs of eagerness, his mind beginning to drift.
If he wanted to recruit players, then he would need to establish a practical and effective system, similar to a guild for players, sothing that could foster cohesion among them, and more importantly, tie their interests tightly to his.
For example: a points system, or contribution trics. These were the most direct thods. Completing tasks could earn them points or contributions. Accumulating enough could allow them to unlock access or purchase and learn higher-level magic. This would bind them step by step.
Of course, this was just a rough concept. A proper plan would require more thorough refinent.
Besides, there was no rush. Though the players had arrived, he estimated that it would take at least half a year before they could stir up any waves. He still had enough ti to act.
What mattered more right now was, the mithril vein discovered by the dwarves.
If the news was true, then in the coming days, Dawn City, the Dark Pact, and the Crimson Mage Tower, these three colossal forces, would all begin moving because of it.
No one could resist the allure of a mithril vein.
The value of such a vein was in no way inferior to obtaining a mature dragon. Who could resist owning a dragon?
No one.
