Chapter 1821: Chapter 1034: Before the Meeting Chapter 1821: Chapter 1034: Before the Meeting Through Ariel Watson’s succinct explanation, Leo Ray gained a further understanding of these five neutral organizations.

Firstly, from the name “Verdant Adventurers’ Guild,” it is clear that this is a neutral organization that advocates exploring various secret realms and relics.

Dense Forest, Snow Domain, Barren Mountains, Swamps, Caves… The footprints of members of this guild are scattered across the Human Clan countries, with over three thousand registered members in Coldflame Kingdom alone.

Among them, although the vast majority of members are ordinary Lower Order warriors, there are also hidden powers possessing Tier 4 and even Tier 5 experts with unique skills, such as the president, who is a long-famed Tier 5 powerhouse.

Additionally, not only does the “Verdant Adventurers’ Guild” have branches in more than twenty cities throughout Coldflame Kingdom, but the organizational structure is also extremely well-established.

With many departments such as the Crisis Response Team, Savior Team, Hunter Team, Executioner Team and others, it is among the foremost of the registered medium-sized neutral organizations in Coldflame Kingdom.

The “Thunder and Lightning Magic Assembly” and “Mirror Witches’ Association” are also clearly neutral organizations that only recruit magic powerhouses.

The former’s members mainly consist of rare magic system powerhouses such as those adept in Thunder Light, Ice System, and Steel magic, whereas the latter specifically recruits witches, that is, female magicians with high strength.

Although the registered number of these two organizations in Coldflame Kingdom is only in the hundreds, the vast majority are elite magicians above Tier 2, and many members are also well-known magic system powerhouses from various places.

As for the “Jett Knights,” it goes without saying that they have at least one cavalry troop with more than a thousand members within Coldflame Kingdom alone, almost all of whom are elite knights of Tier 2 and Tier 3 and above, including rare troops such as flying knights.

Different from the “Blue Rose Knights” and the “Broken Blade Knights,” the “Jett Knights,” as an ancient neutral organization with a heritage of over a thousand years, boasts profound depth and has training and professionalism for knights that can even rival the Royal Family.

Lastly is the “Ballad Wanderers’ Alliance,” a neutral organization that mainly recruits wandering poets.

Compared to the previous organizations, although their overall strength is weaker and not suited for direct combat, they possess a very powerful propaganda and intelligence gathering ability.

As soon as the headquarters issues a command, thousands of wandering poets scattered throughout the various Human Clan nations can immediately spring into action, becoming one of the huge gears in a machine for spreading and collecting information, playing an unparalleled role.

After all, wandering poets who frequent taverns and balls are never short of friends and information.

“Very good, very good, although compared to the upcoming armies of the Five Kingdoms, the numbers of these five organizations are very limited, a significant portion of them are elite combat forces, capable of fighting ten soldiers each at least.”

“Especially the ‘Mirror Witches’ Association’ that Ariel Watson just specifically mentioned can fill in the gap of Illusion Technique experts to a certain extent.”

“And the other magicians can greatly supplement the kingdom’s magic combat power, after all, the number of magicians is relatively more scarce.”

After listening to the introductions, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.

You should know that supplementing magic system powerhouses is one of the matters he is most concerned about.

With the boost from the Golden Finger Talent, the number of Magic Cannons upgraded during this period has been astounding, even more than all the other Human various countries combined.

But the key issue lies in the firing energy source.

After collecting the Demon Energy Luminous Crystals from the entire Coldflame Kingdom, the number he possesses is just over 50,000.

After being distributed to each fortress, there are on average only 10,000 crystals for each direction.

And one fully charged Demon Energy Luminous Crystal can support a Tier 2 Magic Cannon for 10 shots.

In other words, 10,000 Demon Energy Luminous Crystals are equal to only 100,000 Tier 2 Magic-guided Bombs.

For medium and small-scale battles, this is undoubtedly a formidable firepower providing great suppression and lethal effect; however, in a national war, it proves to be woefully inadequate.

It can be said without exaggeration that although our side has an overwhelming number of Magic Cannons, they are utterly useless without ammunition and our firepower is even hard to match that of our opponents.

Moreover, apart from Mountain Fortress, Unfallen Fortress, and Dragon’s Lair, the smaller Sunset Fortress and Rainforest Fortress are all fully covered by Absolute Defense Barriers.

But when our magical strength is far inferior to that of the enemy, the Absolute Defense Barrier is doubtlessly as fragile as paper, easily shatterable by the enemy.

Thus, the significance of magic combat power goes without saying.

“With the support of the 20 Alchemist Associations across the entire Cold Flame Territory, I receive more than 20,000 Qi Condensing Pills every day.”

“With the continuous supply of Qi Condensing Pills and Body Strengthening Pills, if given more time, I could create a force of mages capable of easily countering all the other Human Clans’ countries.”

“But the problem is the lack of time.”

“Furthermore, the current active base of magicians is limited, having only reached the peak of Tier 2 temporarily, as after all, I cannot mass-produce Tier 3 permanent strength-enhancing Magic Medicine yet.”

“Even though I have started to establish a preliminary system for discovering mages everywhere, searching for and training new mages is not an overnight achievement. This leads to the situation where, even if there’s an excess of Magic Medicine, it can only temporarily be invested in the numerous physical combat soldiers.”

“Nowadays, the comprehensive magic power of my subordinates, although easily able to match one country, facing five countries at the same time is undoubtedly like an egg smashing against a rock, with absolutely no possibility of victory.”

Thinking of this, Leo Ray slightly furrowed his brow.

Apart from recruiting new mages as just mentioned, I have also been engaging in two new recruitment methods recently.

These are the recruitment of Otherworldly Lords who have awakened their magic talents and the recruitment of magic subsidiaries under other Otherworldly Lords.

Regarding this, Quinn Serena and the others are actively working on it, and I have also invested part of the resources for training.

However, as these Otherworldly Lords and subsidiaries generally have lower overall strength and lack formal magic cooperation training, they have not yet formed a combat force and can only be used as reserve forces.

Of course, apart from magic subsidiaries, I have also begun to gather the forces of all the surrounding lords at the borders as a reserve army, but the effect they can have is still relatively limited.

“In summary, developing the power of the Lords and the Lord’s Technology are both indispensable parts for our future, but now the time is too pressing. The role of these ready-made medium and small neutral organizations is becoming apparent. Members with strength joining their ranks are naturally mature combat forces.”

“Even though the number of magic combat forces in these organizations is limited, with my training, they can soon stand on their own and play a significant role. After all, I have no other choice now.”

Thinking this in his heart, Leo Ray then nodded to Ariel Watson and said, “Let’s go meet the leaders of these organizations now.”
