Chapter 298: Creating Miracle
"Although we don’t have a lot of people, we can mix and match pretty well." The old warrior smiled as he looked at Qian Jin. "There are experienced senior warriors, and there are energetic young warriors."
"Energetic and young..." Qian Jin asked subconsciously, "Could they be students who just graduated from academies?"
"That’s right. Although they only graduated from Novice Academy and didn’t go to Advanced Academy, but..."
Qian Jin sighed. After all this trouble, there were only old warriors who had trouble fighting with weapons and armors on and little kids. This was really a good Warrior Union with warriors at both extreme spectrums.
Pam Yun who was standing nearby looked at Qian Jin who was chatting with the old warrior in confusion. "Why is he here? Didn’t his friend ask me to take a bet? Is this it?" he thought.
Qian Jin felt Pam Yun’s confusion. He turned around and smiled. "Wait for a second, I encountered something interesting."
"Elder." Qian Jin turned back around and said to the old warrior, "If the emperor his majesty declared a total war against the demons, would Limitless Battle Fort be required to send warriors to the frontline?"
"Of course."
"Experienced warriors like yourself seem to pass the age threshold." Qian Jin knocked on the antique like table and continued. "I’m afraid that the military won’t invite you to become a general or a strategist?"
...
Qian Jin looked at the silent elder. "Then only those kids are able to go? Do they have their own armor?" he asked.
"The military would provide..."
"You are planning to let them use the equipment from the military? To battle with Demons and Barbarians? I’m sure that you know the quality of the armor provided by the military. A bunch of students who graduated from Novice Academy going on the battlefield with the armor from the military... of course, they might only get a suit and not even a set of armor....."
Qian Jin stopped and looked at the elder in the eyes. "What do you think about their probability of survival?" he sneered.
"Elder, you are probably quite good at business." Qian Jin looked around and continued. "I’m sure you have to pay quite a lot of taxes since this building is so big. It must be hard to survive throughout the years."
At this point, the elder was already surprised. Most of the warriors didn’t know that the Warrior Unions had to pay taxes and they would only focus on improving their individual strength in order to kill more demons on the battleground. However, it was quite hard to afford all the associated fixed costs.
However, if he decided to reduce the size of the building, the Limitless Battle Fort would look worse in others’ eyes and people who would hire them for work would decrease as well. This would create a vicious cycle until the Battle Fort completely disappeared. This definitely happened to other Warrior Unions.
Qian City, it was a city without a Warrior Union. There was one, but it was squeezed to death by the influence of the Qian Family. Even though they had subsidies from the Central Warrior Union, they still couldn’t be around.
Qian Jin looked at the elder who was silent and knew that he guessed right. The reason why this Warrior Union was able to survive in Limitless City dominated by the Pam Family was because of this elder’s business and operation skill. Although Qian Jin wasn’t exactly sure, he was able to guess.
The Roll Family was moving into Yulee City which was the economic and political center of Yulee State and there were more opportunities and more competition. Rosella was good at business but how can she handle everything on her own?
Qian Jin was afraid that fatty Rollin who was in the stars might go into his dream and teach him a lesson. It would be the best to find Rosella a helper.
"Elder, those kids are also warriors." Qian Jin stared into the eyes of the elder and didn’t anything else.
Since it was between warriors, nothing more was needed. Everything Qian Jin wanted to say was already said. These young warriors were the future of Limitless Battle Fort and they were the future of warriors and represented the honor and dignity of ordinary warriors.
To protect the dignity and honor of warriors by giving up individual honor... An eye-piercing light flashed through the elder’s eyes as he asked, "Young man, how much money can you give me?"
Qian Jin shrugged his shoulder and said, "It would depend on your abilities. I have a new business opportunity that is backed by Torrent Battle Fort, one of the eight forces of Yulee. If you want to join us, you can take 30% of the cut."
"30%" A bright smile appeared on the elder’s face, and all the wrinkles somehow flattened. "Kid, do you have enough funds? You need a lot of money to earn huge money."
"Funds?" Qian Jin frowned as he thought. He had at least more than ten millions gold coins from the treasure in Ancient Desert Sea. Although it couldn’t be compared with the Qian Family and the Pam Family who had been around for a long time, it was comparable to the money that the eight forces at Yulee had.
"10,000?" the elder shook his head in disappointment as he saw Qian Jin pointed out his index finger. "That’s too little."
"10,000?" Qian Jin smiled and shook his head. He didn’t dare tell the elder that he had 10,000,000 gold coins even the elder only guessed 10,000. He was afraid that the elder might faint after hearing that number.
"100,000?"
"Could it be 1,000,000?" The elder’s bark like face turned red out of excitement.
"Could it... could it..." after seeing Qian Jin still shaking his head, the elder said with a shaky voice, "No...10,000,000?"
Qian Jin nodded as the elder’s body shivered. "Elder, you have to hold still, don’t faint. I don’t want to cover your medical expenses. All I know that is that I have 10,000,000 gold coins and there might be more in the Commercial Trading Firm, I’m not too clear on that."
The elder was so excited that his chest moved up and down violently. "10,000,000! 10,000,000! Could it be that this kid the son of the President of Torrent Battle Fort? It can’t be. Even if Torrent Battle Fort has 10,000,000 gold coins in assets, they don’t have that much money in cash."
The elder nodded and said, "Then I, old Liam, will believe you. Since you can become a manager at Torrent Battle Fort, you must have some tricks up your sleeves."
Qian Jin high-fived old Liam and said, "Sorry about ruining your warrior’s honor and making you go into business."
A faint loneliness appeared in his eyes, but a slight smile appeared on his face. "It’s ok, I can no longer go on the battlefield at this age. It is good that I can still help the new warriors to find their paths."
"Kid, didn’t you say that you want to borrow some space?" Liam looked at Qian Jin and said, "Almost all of the room is empty, use whichever one you want. If you trust me enough, can you prepay me a few thousand gold coins?"
"A few thousand gold coins?" Qian Jin was a little surprised.
"Hehe." Liam laughed and said, "If I’m going to work for you, I probably need to leave here, right? Before I go, I want to leave the kids some gifts."
A gold bar. Liam was shocked! He gasped. "Warrior... Warrior Dimension?"
It was impossible to store a gold bar in any pockets without it showing. There was only one possibility. Liam looked at Qian Jin and wondered where this young man came from. In all these years, he had only seen a Warrior Dimension once and it belonged to Pam Honzi, the leader of the Hydra Family. "This young man has one..." he wondered.
...
10,000,000 gold coins, Warrior Dimension, manager at the Torrent Battle Fort... Liam was got more confused as he looked at Qian Jin who walking into a room. "How many secrets does this young man have? Wait, is that Pam Yun who is a guard at Pam Family? Why is he here? And why does he look like..."
"A henchman?" Liam rubbed his eyes and was sure that he saw Pam Yun. "My eyes are fine, but... although Pam Yun didn’t wake up his bloodline, he is a member of Pam family after all. He had the Hydra’s pride but why would he follow these ordinary warriors?"
10,000,000 gold coins? Pam Yun who followed Qian Jin wondered to himself. "This young man has 10,000,000 gold coins? Who is he? Why would he come here?"
It was a clean field for warriors to practice, no dust could be found on the stone surface.
Qian Jin looked around. Although this place was also old and rigged, it was really clean. Although the Union was going down a spiral, the Warriors weren’t. They were still training and cleaning the place.
"Burg." Qian Jin pointed at the water bag on Duren Burg’s waist and said, "Test it."
"Kid, you are so lucky." Duren Burg laughed as he took off the leather water bag off of his waist and said to Pam Yun, "Give it a try."
"Take a sip?" Pam Yun’s guards got up as he looked at the water bag that Duren Burg opened. "I don’t even know you guys and you guys want me to take a sip out there? How do I know if there are poisons in there?" He asked.
"Why? You don’t have the balls?" Duren Burg laughed as he swung the water bag in his hand. "This is the poison created by a Mystic Pharmacist. It won’t kill you, you would activate your bloodline."
The Hydra Bloodline was activated as Duren Burg unleashed his Demon Fighter Warrior Power. At that moment, a layer of black metal like scales appeared on his skin, his eyes turned into two beautiful black gems, and nails that were sharper than blades grew out of his fingers.
Hydra Bloodline Warrior! Hydra Bloodline Warrior! Pam Yun screamed in his mind as he started at Duren Burg’s Bloodline Battle Form. His body shivered as he thought, "Who is he? Why does he have Hydra Bloodline Power? Isn’t his name Burg? No one in the Pam family goes by that name..."
After listening to Duren Burg’s bullshit, Qian Jin realized that most of the guards in Pam Yun’s eyes disappeared and he looked very eager to try the "potion" as if he believed Duren Burg’s words completely.
"Mystic... A mystic potion that can activate bloodlines?" Pam Yun’s hands shivered as he walked towards Duren Burg robotically. All that he was able to see was the leather water bag containing that mystic water.
