Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor

Lin Rui arrived at the Black Banner Guard Camp with his soldiers, just as Terion was also present there, accompanied by a large number of soldiers and dozens of Explorers.

Upon seeing Lin Rui, everyone immediately paid their respects in unison.

Lin Rui nodded, looked at this large group, and asked Terion, "What's going on?"

Terion promptly explained, "The Wild Hunt Banquet will only end before the sunrise tomorrow. The Green Tide has ended, yet quite a few monsters are still emerging from hiding. The Explorers are doing their utmost to enhance their strength and advance the soldiers' tiers. We provided three companies of Tier Two soldiers for the domain, and I plan to send them to the Black Banner Army Camp for training."

This was indeed a pleasant surprise.

During this beast tide, the right wing faced relatively lighter pressure. However, their front line spanned over ten miles, and the killing was no less, enabling many of the low-tier soldiers to accumulate enough experience to advance.

One must know that in this battle, Su Ye, who is Tier Four, went on a rampage and advanced to Tier Five.

Lin Rui can also soon break through to Tier Four.

The advancement of a large number of soldiers on the right wing to Tier Two is only logical.

Lin Rui glanced at the Explorers behind Terion and asked, "Why did they come with you?"

An Explorer at the back stepped forward proactively and explained, "Boss, we heard from the Explorers in your domain that you have a military camp that can train soldiers into Elite-level soldiers. We wonder if you could also help train ours? We are willing to pay a fee."

This Explorer, Lin Rui recalled, was the female Explorer who brought over ten Eagle Claw Crossbow Cannons, known as the Raven Lady. She submitted to the domain after its upgrade to a town and became the lord of a Feudal Domain.

Her personality is straightforward and capable; Lin Rui had a favorable impression of her. Regarding her candid proposition, Lin Rui thought it over very seriously.

The Black Banner Guard is undeniably the main combat force of the domain, and its powerful trait ensures a resilient defense line.

Should the upgrade permissions of the Black Banner Army be opened to the Feudal Domain?

Truth be told, this indeed requires some magnanimity.

Tier Three Elite-level soldiers are the backbone in any force anywhere.

Take Lord Lei as an example; her single comet strike into the Beastman Giant formation almost got herself ruined.

Although the Beastman Giant is Tier Five, the Black Banner Guard will be able to advance to Tier Five eventually as long as they keep upgrading.

A Tier Three Elite-level unit will not forever be stuck at Tier Three.

As long as there are enough battles, they can also grow into a fierce and tough force.

Seeing Lin Rui hesitate, Chen Dong spoke up proactively, "Boss, we can increase the payment ratio. Five to one, four to one, or even three to one, we can negotiate."

The other Explorers nodded repeatedly; even a ratio of three to one would be highly advantageous for the Explorers.

The Explorers standing here are the elite among them. Most of the mediocre and brainless ones perished in the Dark Strike or lost their lands and became refugees.

Hence, these people are quite open-minded and capable of seeing things from a different perspective.

If one looks at it as having to give the Golden Pansy Town one soldier out of every three, it might seem harsh and unacceptable.

But from another perspective, if for every three soldiers in the domain, two can grow from Ordinary Level to Elite-level?

This probability might drive people more insane than a golden finger elsewhere.

For ordinary Explorers, even if they survive against all odds, having one out of ten soldiers become elite is quite remarkable.

Having one out of three advance from Ordinary to Elite level is already miraculous.

But now, at least two out of every three can be elevated to Elite level.

If one is broad-minded enough, this can be treated as a golden finger successfully awakened upon arrival in this world.

At least throughout the Dragonbone Plain area, those with such a golden finger are currently these dozen or so people nearby.

Their advantage already surpasses tens of millions of other Explorers.

Thus, talented people like to flock under a hero, because being with a hero truly grants one plenty of benefits.

Chen Dong is one among them who gained particularly a lot and is especially keen on making this happen. As long as the ratio doesn't exceed one to one, he believes this can be discussed.

After considering the pros and cons, Lin Rui finally responded, "Okay. Since the Golden Pansy Domain has been upgraded to a town, and you are all village residents affiliated with the town, theoretically, you should be able to come to the town to enjoy its amenities. So let's set the payment ratio at three to one."

Lin Rui is quite open-minded, treating the military camp as an open-job transfer hall of a main city. All villagers can come and pay a certain fee for job transfer.

The fee they must pay for job transfer is one-third of their soldiers.

For every squad of soldiers transferred by the affiliated Feudal Domain, Golden Pansy Town retains four soldiers.

Adding the cost of their advancement, the Feudal Domain will, for each squad turned into Black Banner Guards, supply Golden Pansy Town with five additional Black Banner Guard soldiers.

This is immensely beneficial for the Golden Pansy Domain, for the more numerous the Black Banner Guard, the stronger the combat power.

Especially when combined with the Heavy Gun Banner, which will grant them Damage Reduction, effective up to the corps level.

It was precisely with this consideration that Lin Rui made his decisive choice.

A generous person is supposed to receive generous returns.
