Chapter 375 Cooperation Guild
"That's roughly what happened. President, you must believe me. I really only planned to poach some people and bring back eight or ten of them."
"So you just brought back half of the guild?"
Mo Lan's eyes widened slightly and he looked at Lin Wo in disbelief.
"It's not kidnapping, it's just that they've become attached to me and I can't drive them away."
Lin Wo said helplessly, with a look of despair on his face.
It would be fine if it was just Zhao Hua and a group of elders, but even if there was a group of outstanding players added to them, Lin Wo would dare to accept them directly and recruit them during the next association recruitment exam.
But once Zhao Hua spoke, it was not just a few people, but half of the people in the Eternal Blazing Sun Guild followed Zhao Hua.
Half the people is not too many, just around twelve thousand.
"My mentality has collapsed ."
Lin Wo said helplessly.
"Tell me, what are your specific plans?"
Mo Lan looked at him with amusement and asked, since Lin Wo found him, he must have a solution, otherwise he would have refused long ago. Now he was looking for him just to pretend to be pitiful and show off.
"Hehe, this is what I thought, continue as I said at the beginning.
In the form of labor dispatch, Eternal Blazing Sun still exists. They dispatch technical personnel to work here, and we pay internal points to the Eternal Blazing Sun Guild.
This won’t cause too much of an impact on us. At most, the president will be dispatched as a laborer.”
"Well, I have no problem with this, but will Zhao Chen accept it? In his expectation, the best result is to directly merge the Eternal Blazing Sun into the Mage Association, right?
This way, Eternal Blazing Sun's players who follow him will not be treated unfairly, and he can also meet his own goals. He can study and replicate modern concepts in a better environment and with more superior resources and complete the establishment of a technological system.
And if you do this, isn't it obvious that you want him to abandon the ordinary members? He probably can't do such a thing.
As far as I know, Zhao Chen is probably a pure technician with a strong sense of responsibility."
"I definitely know this, otherwise how could I agree if he asked?
President, please don't be impatient. Just listen to me."
Lin Wo continued.
"I think this is a good opportunity. You know, there are 20,000 people in Eternal Blazing Sun alone, and 12,000 of them were originally divided to follow Zhao Chen.
This is just the Eternal Blazing Sun. After the removal of the nobility restrictions, which of the powerful guilds like the Netherfire and God of War are not recruiting people aggressively?
The largest one , Yifei, will always have a branch, with at least nearly 100,000 people.
The five hundred of us are indeed elites, but no matter how powerful the elites are, they cannot defeat two hundred alone.
Even if we recruit more after a while and expand to 3,000, the distance between them is still too big.
We are currently maintaining a huge advantage, and the top elite mages will definitely choose our guild, but if the gap widens, our advantage will be diluted by scale, and that may no longer be the case.”
"So you're going to swallow the Eternal Blazing Sun in one gulp?"
"No, it's impossible."
Lin Wo remained rational and shook his head to deny it.
“Our small size has its own advantages. It is easy to manage, we are united, and everyone is an elite.
There are also disadvantages to being large in scale. With more than 100,000 people, it is difficult to manage. The headquarters and branches cannot be considered a guild.
Therefore, we certainly cannot swallow the Eternal Blazing Sun in one gulp, otherwise we will become ordinary in an instant.
So we cannot swallow up the Eternal Blazing Sun, we can only absorb the elites among them, but we really need more than 10,000 people of the Eternal Blazing Sun.
After all, these players have a certain level of mechanical literacy and are good tools that can be used right away.
Even if we don’t consider power, we can’t abandon it from the perspective of experiment. We don’t have enough manpower, and we can’t do any experiments on a larger scale.”
“So you mean to engage peripheral forces and recruit them as affiliated guilds?
This is not feasible. Our association still has the sign of neutrality. This is one of the important labels for our future development. It is not easy to establish and maintain it until now. We cannot tear it down. "
Lin Wo nodded.
“I understand. I don’t mean to tear off this label. I just want to say that if the affiliated guild is not okay, then… what about the cooperative guild?
We hired Zhao Chen and other guild leaders, so why can't we also hire the twelve thousand people from Eternal Blazing Sun?"
Mo Lan pondered for a long time after hearing this.
"Go on."
"I have two options. The first is to hire them when needed and let them run on their own when not needed. This is like normal business cooperation, which can minimize our costs, but the relationship is relatively loose.
Second, we give them our obsolete technologies and authorize them to operate them. We supervise and take a commission, but we will also leave them enough profit.
They also organize internal examinations, select the best candidates, and recruit the elite into the association.
The relationship is so close that we can easily dominate him, but it is indeed a real partnership.
It can still maintain the advantage of the association's relatively small size and ensure that all members are elites."
Hearing this, Mo Lan tapped his fingers lightly on the table and glanced at Lin Wo.
"The first one is just to make up the numbers. You support the second one, right?"
"The first one also has a basis for realization."
"Come up with two plans, and call Lu Bin and the ten elders to a meeting the day after tomorrow."
Lin Wo understood that Mo Lan agreed.
After Lin Wo left, Mo Lan once again entered the fire elemental realm to hunt the lava beast. He just came out to replenish the ice element and take a short rest.
Sitting in the chariot, Mo Lan shook his head and laughed out loud.
"This Lin Wo is just poaching people. He even moved his entire house here."
As the chariot moved, a lava crack appeared in front of Mo Lan. He threw it casually and a white light fell.
The spell that could freeze an area of 100 meters only froze 20 meters in the magma, but all the lava monsters within a range of 20 meters died.
After a moment of preparation, another spell was cast, and a group of lava monsters died.
The angry lava monster dived into the magma in great rage and ran away silently.
Can't afford to offend.
After freezing the gap, the chariot continued to move forward.
Wave after wave of lava monsters died, and in the boring and repetitive process of monster hunting, the experience points in the ink cartridge increased, gradually approaching promotion.
At this time, the chariot passed by a lava lake. Mo Lan had no intention of taking action. He just went around it from a distance and just silently watched the lake with Eagle Eye Technique as usual.
From time to time, huge black and red stones float up and down in the calm lake. Each of them is at least a sixth-level lava monster.
On the surface of the magma, many ordinary lava beasts were playing, fighting, killing, and devouring each other, and at this moment, Mo Lan's eyes fixed.
“Hey.”
