YM778.TV Chapter 26: World Market Alliance Plan - Member Growth
The large cross on her back gave off an unavoidable sense of threat. Besides its massive size, the cross also calmed the hearts of those who saw it and emitted a strong positive aura.
The other members hadn\'t been idle for the past 15 days either. In the middle right seat was a young man with a Y-shaped staff, the green fire at the tip never extinguishing. Next to him sat a middle-aged, muscular man with his upper body exposed, clearly a blacksmith. Indeed, this man, Gusti, was famous for his S-rank talent in weapon crafting, never disappointing.
Other members didn\'t flaunt their weapons like Laras, Mr. Haikal, Gusti, and Budi with his green fire staff. However, the most notable member was a little girl in the back left seat.
The girl had short, straight black hair, fair skin, and innocent eyes. Lein initially didn\'t think she had a system, but when she demonstrated her ability to summon a skeletal dragon, Lein was convinced and allowed her to join the World Market alliance.
Initially, the girl was quite shy, but after Nita visited her house several times and played with her, she became less afraid and a bit braver.
"Welcome and thank you for attending this meeting," Lein began. "First, let\'s discuss the event and how it works."
Lein opened the meeting and addressed the first topic, identifying and understanding the current event.
"Yes, Mr. Lein. Some of my subordinates mentioned that the portals lead to places where a certain race is located. There, a war is happening, and if we help them, we will earn contribution points," Gusti spoke first. As a blacksmith, he had a wide network.
"Yes, Mr. Lein. I also heard rumors that the contribution points we earn can be exchanged for silver badges. This way, we can break through level 20," said Mr. Haikal from the side.
Other members also shared and conveyed all the information they had. They didn\'t hold back because they had received a lot of help from Lein. As the number one alliance in regional #2344 previously, it would be foolish to antagonize Lein.
After much discussion, they finally obtained a big picture of the ongoing event.
Portals would appear randomly across the island, which had an area of 100,000 square kilometers. The destination and direction of the portals varied; the larger the portal, the higher the level of the racial battle it led to. Additionally, after entering a portal, a one-hour waiting period was required before the return feature appeared on the status panel.
Entering a portal consumed 100 energy crystals, with the cost increasing depending on the portal\'s size.
Contribution point exchanges were carried out by the race they helped, meaning the higher the level of the race, the better the items exchanged for contribution points. Additionally, sovereigns could obtain missions from creatures in the race\'s realm.
"Alright, I think that\'s enough about the event. Next, does anyone have thoughts on how we should participate in this event?" Lein felt the event discussion was complete and moved on to the World Market alliance\'s plan for the Race War Battle event.
"I suggest entering the portals in groups or teams, Mr. Lein. We don\'t yet know the situation in the realms we will enter, so it would be safer to go with companions," Mr. Haikal expressed his thoughts, prioritizing everyone\'s safety.
"I agree with Mr. Haikal. Some of our members are not 100% specialized in combat, like Mr. Haikal and Princess Laras," Dion, who had been silent, finally spoke. He was confident in his A-rank talent (Enhancement - A), but he still considered the alliance members as family and felt they should protect each other.
Other members also joined the discussion, debating the steps they should take and how to become the top 3 in this event.
After several minutes of discussion, they agreed on a few things: Mr. Haikal would lead a team of 5 members, and Laras would lead another team of 5 members. Lein and Laras would go solo.
Regarding becoming the top 3, Lein suggested focusing on earning as many contribution points as possible for now. They would discuss detailed plans after experiencing the racial battles firsthand.
The final topic was each member\'s strength, as they needed to know each other\'s capabilities to form teams. They also shared items if anyone needed them.
Lastly, before closing the meeting, Lein distributed a pair of talismans he obtained from a crowned man during the Tier-1 promotion test.
(Golden Step Talisman) When activated, the body will move to a location within a 1km radius.
(Golden Shield Talisman) Activating the talisman will form a shield that can withstand the full power of master-level creatures.
After about an hour and a half, the alliance meeting concluded. Lein and Nita then returned to the main hall of Life City.
On their way to the main hall of the city, Lein and Nita walked along the main street. The road was made of sturdy white bricks. As it was the city center, it was very crowded. Lein and Nita were accustomed to walking and enjoying the beauty of the city they had built.
"Brother, how about we stop by Fresh Water shop?" Nita pulled Lein\'s hand and pointed to a place nearby. There was a two-story building with a glass front. The logo matched the name, showing a clear glass with ice cubes and water flowing out like a tsunami.
"Ah, you\'re still a foodie at heart. Let\'s go." Lein sighed. No one could resist Nita\'s food cravings. They headed to the building just like everyone else.
"Hello, Princess Nita. Where are you headed?"
"Princess Nita, you\'re getting more beautiful. Can we take a picture?"
Indeed, the world\'s technology had almost matched, and even surpassed, that of Earth. Although social media hadn\'t been developed yet, devices for taking pictures were starting to appear. It was only a matter of time before human civilization advanced a thousand times beyond what it once was on Earth.
