Chapter 755: Building Momentum!
Lamont and his group were kicked out of five places, and the rest plus Han Shuo's Bollands and Blood Spirit's party were less than a hundred in total, not even the number of a guard brigade!
With less than 100 people, it is almost impossible to take care of such a huge Fifth Division. Han Shuo knew that the first thing to do after taking over the Fifth Division was to recruit people, summon new guards, and reorganize the Fifth Division!
Han Shuo thought that there was no need to worry about not being able to recruit suitable candidates for the big shelf of Shenwei Five. It was not until he started to do it that he realized that although the City of Shadows is large, it is not easy to recruit suitable Shenwei. not easy.
Although the Shadow City is large, all those who are really talented are branded with the big family marks. Those strong people who come to the Shadow City from the subordinate city fortress, once they arrive in the Shadow City, people from the major families will send people to invite them. Some talented people were attracted by the negotiators sent by the major families before they entered the Shadow City. They had no chance to come to the five places, and they were divided up one step earlier.
Although the Han family in the Shadow City has gained some fame, in the eyes of outsiders, the Han family only relied on Tianji Pharmaceutical to become famous. This kind of family that started from business must be far inferior to those ancient big families in the Shadow City. , under the same conditions, those people are willing to belong to the ancient family in the Shadow City, not the Han family!
The fifth office must be rebuilt, but there are too many manpower shortages, and Han Shuo is more demanding in this regard. In line with the purpose of preferring shortages, he asked Stratholme and Bolands to select candidates. Most of them failed the assessment by Bolandz and others, and only a few people passed the examination by Bolandz and Stratholme.
Time flies. A month passed in the blink of an eye, and during this period, a total of more than thirty people were recruited from the five divisions. The thirty or so people are still looked down upon by the big families, and they belong to the kind of roles that are more than enough than the bottom.
Han Shuo was naturally dissatisfied with this situation. Andre has already urged Han Shuo several times, asking him to solve the problem of the remaining five guards as soon as possible, and to fulfill the responsibilities of the five divisions. Facing the vacancies of more than 900 people, Han Shuo also felt a little headache, and had already used Tianji Pharmaceutical's contacts to place recruitment banners in various fortress cities.
In five spacious meeting halls. Gilbert cursed: "A total of 70 or 80 people entered the city these days, 20 of them have the strength of a middle god, and 13 have a clean background. It's a pity that they have just entered the City of Shadows, and they were arrested by the three Family, please go. Damn, I mentioned the Han family in Shadow City. Those guys even said they hadn’t heard of it, and they didn’t even bother to come to our five places, damn it. They’re all very attractive!"
"Bryan, whether it's the Han family or the five divisions. Because they have just started and they don't have much reputation. For those really capable people who want to get ahead. We are not the best candidates. I am afraid that this situation will not change for a while. It seems that we need to change our strategy!" The old demon Stratholme, as the former national teacher of the Verdun dynasty, saw this aspect very clearly. Seeing that a month passed by in a hurry, the five divisions could not find enough He is also a little anxious.
Shadow City is not empty,
There are a lot of low-ranking gods who practice all kinds of power esoteric arts. They wish they could squeeze into Wuchu or the Han family, but it's a pity that Han Shuo doesn't like them. In line with the principle of rather lacking than indiscriminate, Han Shuo's minimum requirement for the five divine guards is the middle god. Only with the approval of Bolandz and others can he truly join the Five Branches.
Most of the suitable ones were divided among the major families. The rest of the suitable ones will be given to Statholme and Bolandz for the first trial. Many more fell short of the requirements. In this way, the progress is naturally very slow. It was only natural that he couldn't find a suitable divine guard.
"What good idea do you have?" Han Shuo knew that Strathom's strength hadn't improved all of a sudden. But the vision of looking at things is not bad. Hearing this, he frowned and asked.
"Build momentum!" Stratholme smiled gracefully. Two short words are given.
Almeric nodded quietly. He echoed: "I discussed it with Stratholme. I feel that only by improving the status of the Han family in the Shadow City and making people change the impression of the Han family can it be possible to attract talents to come. It has always been the Han family. The impression is Tianji Pharmacy. For those who want to stand out, no matter how big a shop is, it is still a shop. It cannot give them the status and power they want. Once we make the reputation of the Han family, even if we don’t take the initiative to invite them. There will also be an endless stream of defectors coming over on their own initiative!"
Both Strathom and Almeric were old foxes. The two are now working for the Han family wholeheartedly. He gave Han Shuo good advice in many aspects. It saved Han Shuo a lot of trouble.
Listen to the two explain the situation. Han Shuo thought for a while. He nodded and said: "I understand what you mean. I also know that the problem is here. But what should we do to build momentum? We can't jump out and say that our Han family is very powerful. Come to our Han family, shall we?"
"Of course not!" Almeric smiled slightly and said, "We can use people and things to create momentum!"
"Tell me in detail!" Han Shuo became interested and asked with a smile. He knew Almeric very well, and once he heard him say that, Han Shuo knew that Almeric must be confident.
"There are seven divine guards in the Shadow City, and every hundred years there will be a competition between the seven divine guards to determine the ranking! Each competition is limited to a large team, and the true strength of each guard is determined through elites. There will also be a competition between the seven chief guards of the city, and the ranking of the chief guards will also be determined!" The old demon Strathom smiled and explained: "The time for this competition is coming, and we still have a brigade from five places. Come out, if our five divisions can beat the other divisions in the competition, and you can also beat the other chief guards, then the reputation of the five divisions and the Han family will truly be established."
Almeric nodded with a smile, and said: "Once you and the five divisions rank high in the competition of divine guards, the Han family will immediately be able to get rid of the name of a shop and become a truly capable and powerful family. Sometimes even if you don’t take the initiative to recruit, someone will come over and ask to join the Han family and the five divisions!”
"Bryan, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" The old demon Stratholme urged: "The competition between the seven divine guards. The winner has an attractive reward, don't let it go
"What reward?" Han Shuo was taken aback. asked.
Clenching his fists, the old demon Statom smiled and said, "Greater rights!"
"I also heard about the competition between the seven divine guards, but I didn't take it to heart. Please tell me the details and the exact time!" Han Shuo was a little moved. Start asking Stratholme for details.
When Almeric and Stratholme saw that Han Shuo was tempted, they immediately showed Han Shuo the materials they had prepared a long time ago, and explained to Han Shuo in detail the situation of the competition at the Seventh Division of the Guardian of the Shadow City.
In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the Chief of the Shadow City Guardian and the Guardian, and promote healthy competition, Wallace personally hosts each competition, and there are two types of competitions. One is the competition between the chief guards, and the other is the competition of the overall strength of each place, and the competition of the overall strength of each place is more important.
There have been seven competitions in the past. The top three in overall strength and the top three in individual strength have always been firmly occupied by the Sainte family. Personal strength has always been ranked first by Qingtian. Ralph, the more mysterious guard chief of the second division, was ranked second, and Black Sky was third. The ranking after the fourth place changes frequently, and the strength of the four major families is evenly matched.
But the competition of overall strength. For several consecutive years, the second division has been ranked first. Ralph, the chief guard of the second division, rarely stays in the Shadow City. It is difficult for ordinary people in the Shadow City to see Ralph, but his strength should not be underestimated. The overall combat effectiveness of the second division is in the shadow city. Shadow City is famous for its toughness, and every divine guard who comes out of the second place has outstanding ability to kill and resolutely.
It is said that the second office is also called the shadow force of the shadow city, and it is responsible for hunting some special targets. Those potential enemies who plot against the shadow city will often be killed by the killers of the second office silently, which makes the second office the status of the shadow city. Somewhat special, apart from everyone in the Sainte family, even the patriarchs of the three major families have a strong sense of vigilance against the second place.
Holding the information about the competition in his hand, and listening to the introduction of Almeric and the old demon Strathom, Han Shuo quickly understood the situation of the competition between the seven divine guards
As Stratholme said, after each competition of the Seventh Division, some of the duties of the Seventh Division will be adjusted accordingly according to the ranking. Members of the family have the right to kill first and play later! Including the Saint family!
That is to say, even if the other party is a member of a big family, once the head of the guard who has obtained this privilege thinks that the other party's behavior has endangered the safety of the Shadow City, he can kill him on the spot, as long as he can produce enough evidence afterwards and hand it over to Wallace!
This right is huge. If the chief of the guard sees someone who is not pleasing to the eye, he can avenge his personal revenge. He will kill the person first and then fabricate evidence and report it to Wallace!
For so many years, the privilege has always been in the hands of Ralph, the chief of the second guard. Ralph has always been loyal to Wallace. Although he has mastered this privilege, he has not used it much these years. His deeds are remarkable. Fortunately, in the Shadow City for many years, almost no mistakes were made.
"The privilege of cutting first and then playing, hehe, not bad!" Han Shuo smiled happily, and said with a final word: "Well, we are all ready, we have to win in the competition, for the sake of Wu Chu and the Han family, what should we do?" hard-edged
Almeric and Statom were waiting for Han Shuo's words, and they were overjoyed when they heard the words, "Even if we can't win the first place, we should surpass the guards of the other three families. Once we get the three If the big family suppresses it, the gods who come to Shadow City will have to choose again, and Wuchu will not have to worry about not being able to recruit suitable people!"
"How many people are available in our fifth branch?" Han Shuo asked Strathom.
"Including us, there are ninety-one people in total, which is barely enough for a brigade!" Statom said with a wry smile.
"Ninety-one people are enough. In order to be able to win the competition, it seems that I have to practice and practice them myself!" Han Shuo's eyes flashed, and he said: "There are no more than five places around now." It will take a while before the deadline to officially take over any position, order to let all five divine guards go to Fort Bergas!"
"No problem!" Stratholme said cheerfully.
Fort Bergas, Han Shuo arrived ahead of schedule with Bolands, Blood Spirit, and Gilbert in a valley near the Fort Bergas. Han Shuo, Bollands, Blood Spirit, and Gilbert got busy together and turned over the entire valley. In it stood towering jet-black stone pillars, all of which were engraved with patterns of various cumbersome ghost symbols. The ground was cut into ravines by four people using flying swords, and pieces of materials with special functions were thrown into them.
The seventeen flying swords flew around, bringing up one after another sword glows, cutting and leveling the stone walls around the valley, and filling in specific positions with large stones. The Myriad Demon Cauldron flew around the valley, and where the Myriad Demon Cauldron passed, mysterious runes were attached to the stone pillars and scattered on the rock walls.
After ten days of busy work, Han Shuo stirred up the ground fire again, and poured some monster spirits into it to officially activate the "Eight Desolation and Reunion Purgatory Formation" that sharpened the mind and body of the divine guards. The Wanmo Cauldron took out the most powerful demon boss refined by Eugene, and used it as the eye of the "Eight Desolation Separation and Purgatory Formation".
Just a few days after the "Bahuang Lianhe Purgatory Formation", the five divine guards from the Shadow City to the Bergas Fortress also arrived. As soon as those people arrived at Bergas Fortress, Candida brought them into this valley. Han Shuo didn't talk nonsense, and glanced at those people coldly. Said: "The competition between the seven divine guards is about to begin. Although the number of our five divisions has not yet been fully assembled, we can't pull it off. I summon everyone from the City of Shadows to the Fortress of Berglas. Grind everyone before the competition, I hope you will not embarrass me in the competition!"
"Your Excellency asked us to come here, how do you plan to hone it?" A guard named Barnard asked with an indifferent expression.
Pointing to the "Eight Desolation and Reunion Purgatory Formation" where the wind gusts of evil, Han Shuo smiled and said: "It's inside, all of you have to go in, and you have to experience demons and all kinds of dangers inside, I The difficulty will gradually increase, you must know how to cooperate with each other in it, otherwise I will not be responsible for any damage!"
Barnard is a commoner guard and the leader of a ten-member team. He nodded after hearing what Han Shuo said, and said without hesitation, "The third team, follow me!"
After saying that, Barnard took the lead to drill into the "Eight Desolation and Reunion Purgatory Formation". Seeing Barnard entering, the members of their third team did not hesitate and entered one after another. The divine guards of the other teams did not hesitate too much, and also walked into the "Bahuang Clutch Purgatory Formation" one by one.
These people don't know anything about the magic formation, and they don't really pay attention to the "Eight Desolation and Purgatory Formation". There were still many demons from the Cauldron Spirit at the time, and with the support of Han Shuo's special strength, it was strange that those who entered did not shed a layer of skin.
Those people entered inside, and there was a creepy scream from the magic circle. It seemed that those people seemed to have seen an extremely terrifying scene, and they couldn't bear it all of a sudden, they were so frightened that they yelled loudly.
The "Eight Desolation Separation and Purgatory Formation" is a collection of several major demonic formations: phantom formation, maze formation, and heart formation. The entrants not only need to resist the inner demons, but also face the attack of the demon heads that have condensed into reality. The power within the Purgatory Formation has greatly increased, and with the help of Cauldron Spirit and Han Shuo's power, it will cause great damage to them.
After screams rang out, Xueling, Bollands, and Gilbert sneered one by one. When the "Eight Desolation and Purgatory Formation" was just formed, the three of them were sent in by Han Shuo in the first batch. The three of them had personally experienced many unimaginable scenes, and they were still a little scared when they thought about it now. Hearing the horrible screams of those people inside, the three of them gloated a little.
"Master, these bastards should practice hard! I think they are all dissatisfied, and they all look at the master with suspicion. They seem to believe that the master can't handle this position, and it makes me feel uncomfortable!" Gilber Said fiercely.
"Brother, isn't the situation inside too cruel for them?" Bolandz hesitated for a moment, and reminded Han Shuo: "There are not many people in the fifth division, and if those guys can't bear it, they will all die inside. Where are we going to find someone again?"
Bolandz killed decisively, and it is not easy to say such a thing. This shows that he is really thinking about Han Shuo, and he is afraid that Han Shuo will train those divine guards to death, leaving no one in the fifth division of the divine guard!
"Don't worry, nothing will happen!" Han Shuo comforted Bolandz, and said with a smile, "It's different from the intensity experienced by the three of you, I will gradually increase the strength in the formation to let them get used to it a little bit. These guys will be the mainstay of our Han family and the Fifth Division in the future, I can't bear to let them die!"
"Master, in the future, the new guards who join the five divisions may simply let them go and experience it. It is very useful for the training of newcomers. In that cruel environment, they can grow up the fastest and become the most needed guards in our five divisions." The kind of talent!" Blood Spirit suggested.
"I also have the same idea. We can spend some time building this place into a special training ground for tempering the god guards. It is very far away from the Shadow City, so nothing will go wrong. Those guards don't know the function of the magic power and magic array at all. Afterwards, most of them will not be able to figure out the situation, and it will be more appropriate if we use the energy tower to disguise it on the periphery!" Han Shuo was very satisfied with Xueling's proposal and smiled.
The four of Han Shuo and his party were talking and laughing outside the formation, but the five divine guards from the Shadow City had to face an extremely dangerous situation. Under the attack of hundreds of condensed demons, those divine guards naturally formed The defense circle was broken, and the cooperation and tacit understanding between them quickly increased.
Only in the face of a life-and-death crisis can a person's full potential be brought out. Han Shuo obviously understands this. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to m, more chapters, support the author, support the official
