Chapter 1355: Chapter 1352
“There’s no problem here, the military will definitely provide substantial assistance!”
Oliver Walker said, “However, at present, there is one more grandmaster-level fighter who can be of service to us!”
He thought of Lucas Davis immediately.
Though Lucas was from the Eastern Alliance, he had severed all ties with them by now.
So there was no possibility of a leak.
That morning, he had also handed over the Sky-breaking Sword left by the young girl to Lucas, and with the famous sword aiding Lucas, his strength should have risen to another level!
“Really, or not?”
Oliver Harris was struggling with a lack of manpower when Oliver Walker had mentioned a grandmaster-level fighter. Was this some kind of joke?
If it was true, such great news seemed to have come too suddenly.
“Of course, it’s true!”
Oliver Walker smiled slightly, “He’s recuperating in the hospital, but with his physique, he should be discharged in at most two days.”
Oliver Harris exclaimed excitedly, “That’s really great news!”
In fact, Dragon Division had always been scouting for hidden, powerful fighters in the secular world to recruit, but most people, having chosen to retreat from society, were hard to coax back into action.
In plain terms, they were just a group of guards.
And they couldn’t offer much to the powerful fighters who did join.
Even to this day, he was merely a working man himself, earning a salary that was definitely higher than that of an average person, but really nothing compared to the truly wealthy.
Those currently serving in the Dragon Division were either prodigies identified at a young age and then recruited and groomed, or
expressed an unparalleled level of loyalty to the pyramid.
They fought not for money, like the soldiers, but for the belief in their hearts!
As for the ancient martial artists who joined halfway through, many of them couldn’t handle the danger of living on the edge, either being on a mission or en route to one every day, so a lot chose to quit.
Take a Martial Arts Grandmaster Level fighter like Oliver Harris, for instance. Who would risk their life for a salary of a few tens of thousands?
Even if it were purely for greed and indulgence, a grandmaster like Oliver Harris could earn an annual income of no less than nine figures, even just as a bodyguard.
“Report!”
And at this moment, another Dragon Division member walked in, “Leader, we’ve checked those three places.”
The man’s name was Song Peng, an old-timer in Dragon Division!
He had to be at least forty-five years old, but because he was an ancient martial artist, he looked quite young.
Practicing martial arts indeed had the effect of slowing down aging.
“How is the situation?”
Oliver Harris quickly stood up and asked, as those three places were very important to them.
It concerned whether Dragon Division could expand its recruitment.
After all, without the provision of Spiritual Energy for cultivation, recruiting more people would be meaningless.
Moreover…
The reason why the numbers in Dragon Division were so few was their principle of preferring a lack of members rather than mediocre ones.
At the Martial Trainee level, one could barely qualify as a reserve member and would not be directly involved in missions.
Only at the Martial Arts Grandmaster Level could one hesitantly participate in some trial missions.
What Dragon Division really needed were experts, such as Song Peng and Jackson Green, who were at the Martial Masters level!
As for grandmasters, they were extremely rare and precious.
“We have confirmed that both Grand King Village and Song Imperial Mountain do not have the so-called Spiritual Energy.”
“And the rumors about the two places are just that, rumors.”
“However, Ming Imperial Tomb does have traces of Spiritual Energy, but it’s so sparse that it is almost negligible.”
Song Peng faithfully reported the exploration results of the three locations, and such findings obviously brought a suffocating despair.
After all, there weren’t that many places blessed with Spiritual Energy.
It might seem that the vast expanse of the Eastern Sea Region had many potential sites, but there might not be a suitable one among them.
They were like geologists scouting for minerals and oil, and finding locations abundant with Spiritual Energy to cultivate ancient martial artists was part of their daily tasks.
