Chapter 583: Chapter 317: Destruction Approaches, The Saints’ Responses_2

After all, a 60% chance really wasn’t high.

"Players, you should all know this, they come from a special origin, and can even travel to other worlds." Gu Shanhai indicated that the great disaster could be a major catastrophe, but compared to players, it still fell short.

"That group with resurrection abilities? Their strengths are too weak, or are you thinking of using the players for migration?" the Holy Saint asked, not seeing much use in the players.

"Weakness is just the surface, they possess peculiar creative abilities, they simply need the right guidance."

At this stage, the players indeed seemed weak to these indigenous upper echelons, the ability to resurrect being their only noteworthy feature.

For the Saints, they had never coveted this ability, so it was inconsequential to them.

"The right guidance?" the Holy Saint didn’t understand. He had observed these people resembling game players doing odd things, some like good Samaritans willing to do anything, others always thinking of profits, showing quite contradictory characters.

However, the players didn’t affect their plans, so they let it be.

"Exactly, according to my investigation, some of our words and actions can form a unique task for them; if they complete it, they can receive rewards from an unknown entity. Of course, if we add extra rewards, it would greatly enhance the enthusiasm of the players."

"And the more difficult the task, the richer the rewards from the unknown entity for the players. However, I have explored and it seems that certain logic is needed, for example, sending players to destroy the great disaster probably won’t form a mission."

"So, we can completely attract more players by offering extremely lucrative rewards for tasks that tackle the great disaster."

"One player can’t solve it, but what about ten thousand, a hundred thousand, or even a million players?"

Gu Shanhai didn’t tell the whole truth. He was not just bringing in players, but thinking of allowing "First Epoch" to enter the scene.

This was definitely the world’s main storyline. Once announced in a way that all players could undertake, the attraction would be off the charts.

In the hands of players, once a task was formed, "First Epoch" would also provide some clues. If they could draw in those players with emulators, text reminders, and such talents, the chances of success would be much higher.

"So, the cost would be our wealth?" the Holy Saint asked calmly.

"Yes, enough to deplete our wealth for hundreds of years," Gu Shanhai answered. Otherwise, why would players come over if we give them nothing?

"How confident are you?" the Holy Saint asked, not questioning the expenditure. For all Saints, so-called wealth was external; as long as the world could be saved, nothing else was a problem.

"90%!" Gu Shanhai stated confidently.

With sufficient intensity, many great powers settling in the adventure world, the great disaster might not be an issue after all.

Destroying the great disaster might be unreachable, but surviving from near-death was possible.

The Saints began to discuss and brainstorm mainly about the 90% chance of success predicted by Gu Shanhai.

An hour later, the Holy Saint on behalf of the other Saints responded to Gu Shanhai.

"Alright, but we must see results within six months. If there isn’t enough progress in half a year, we will initiate a reduction plan." The Holy Saint didn’t mention failure or lack of results requiring Gu Shanhai to pay a price; they were all in this together, not bound by rigid frameworks.

This meant implementing two plans simultaneously. If they truly saw a dawn of hope in the first half-year, they wouldn’t opt to slaughter adventurers to reduce weight.

Both plans actually weren’t in conflict; after all, the reduction plan didn’t need to spend wealth, just kill, kill, kill. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

"Of course, it’s a necessary step," Gu Shanhai didn’t refute. If it really came to that point, why would he interfere?

By then he could just take Rein and his wife and flee to another world.

Regardless of whether it was Xuanzhen Realm or Dashu Dynasty, they both had places for Gu Shanhai to belong, so he didn’t really care.

As for others, that had nothing to do with Gu Shanhai. He only took care of his own people; it was already good enough not to kick someone while they’re down when dealing with others.

"So, what do we need to do?" the Holy Saint asked, raising a relevant question. Naturally, the Saints could not expect Gu Shanhai to do everything, as that would be impractical.

"I’ve already drawn up the charter and am sending it to you now. As for the specific details or direction, you can grasp and handle them yourselves."

"However, there’s one thing; that is, you mustn’t trust the players too much."

Gu Shanhai transmitted his plans to the Saints, without insisting on a rigid implementation. There were differences between each Saint City, and a direct copy could lead to trouble.

Fortunately, although the Saints were emotionally detached, they weren’t completely clueless. On the contrary, they had high emotional intelligence, similar to artificial intelligence. You could call it inanimate but not incapable.

After receiving the plans, the Saints turned and left one by one.

This scene made Gu Shanhai’s eyes twitch, and he soon followed their departure, mainly because the Saints believed that since the plan was in their hands, it was time to execute it. The rest were just meaningless formalities.

Thus, there really wasn’t any need to go through with them, so they left according to the old rule.

Mainly because they regarded Gu Shanhai as a Saint, thinking everyone thought the same, so their sudden departure without a word appeared abrupt.

’This time, the whole forum must explode,’ Gu Shanhai thought.

The world of Adventure King itself was a popular world, previously featuring Gu Shanhai, and now adding a world from the "First Era." It was one of the highest energy levels players could access at this stage, making it a highly challenging world.

Thus, revealing such a rich main world quest that was accessible to everyone, the estimated players could easily surpass five hundred million.

With good luck, fifty billion or even one hundred billion were possible.

The player base kept increasing. The more worlds the "First Era" opened up, the more it encouraged players to propagate, forming second, third, and other generations of players to work for them.

Otherwise, the initial players weren’t enough for so many worlds.

Moving onto the second version, there were so many worlds that a new, unfortunate world had to be chosen as a breeding ground for players.

"Next... perhaps should I let Rein out?" Gu Shanhai pondered. If not for the potential apocalyptic crisis, he wouldn’t consider letting Rein leave.

Time was limited to a year, or perhaps even just six months. If counted, Rein could only tackle two adventure regions.

Gu Shanhai wasn’t short on time. With the help of the Child of Destiny, the difficulty should decrease a lot.

"But this way..." Gu Shanhai also felt a bit worried inside, because if Rein left, would he just keep getting dragged along and then never come back?

It was even possible that he would be directly sacrificed, which could happen.

After all, he was his disciple; one must consider his well-being.

If Gu Shanhai had no backup plan, he would have just gritted his teeth and gone all-out with Rein, but since he had an alternative, it led him to think about escaping if things went south.

"Never mind, with me watching, there shouldn’t be any major issues. It’s a good opportunity for him to gain some experience in a big scene." After some thought, with his own power, resisting the great desolation wasn’t possible, but managing to swiftly get Rein and his wife out of the Adventure King world was doable.

If they couldn’t fight, they could still escape, so there wasn’t too much to worry about.
