Chapter 136: Taking Over the Thunder God Temple, Recruiting Shadow-level Powerhouses!
ACSP: Chapter 136: Taking Over the Thunder God Temple, Recruiting Shadow-level Powerhouses!
Now, there wasn't much time left before the arrival of the Otsutsuki Clan.
In order to build up his own faction as quickly as possible.
After leaving the storage room, Jiang Chen immediately took Li Dala back to the main hall of the Thunder God Temple.
He gathered everyone and announced his plan to establish a gang.
Hearing this, everyone's faces showed expressions of disbelief.
In their impression.
Jiang Chen was someone who belonged to the Jinghai City City Lord's Mansion.
Now that he wanted to establish his own gang, was he preparing to break away from the City Lord's Mansion institution, just like Ling Kai of the Prince's Mansion?
"After the Heavenly Court is established, all affairs within the gang will be fully handled by Li Dala and Song She. If you have any questions, you can go directly to them."
Jiang Chen stood with his hands behind his back in the main hall, looking down at Li Dala and the others with a calm gaze as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Song She immediately frowned.
All affairs within the gang were to be handled by him and Li Dala?
This kid wanted to be a hands-off manager!
Li Dala couldn't help but ask, "Jiang Chen, you're handing the gang you created entirely over to the two of us, so what are you going to do?"
Jiang Chen smiled, "I'll be responsible for behind-the-scenes management. Of course, you can also treat me as your solid backing."
He knew nothing about gang management.
Such troublesome matters naturally had to be left to others.
"That's not impossible, anyway, your gang is just us few, so management will be very easy."
Li Dala didn't think too long and quickly agreed.
It's just managing a small gang of a few people.
What's the big deal!
However, just at this moment.
Jiang Chen suddenly added one more sentence:
"The Heavenly Court I'm establishing is not the Evil God Organization. In the future, more people will inevitably join. When that time comes, you must put more effort into the membership benefits for newcomers and personnel management. Don't raise any ungrateful wretches for me."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Li Dala immediately jumped up.
He said in disbelief, "No way, Jiang Chen, you're still going to continue recruiting newcomers?"
"Yes."
Jiang Chen nodded seriously, "It's already the fourth year since the arrival of the Dimensional Era. Calculating the time, there is at most about one year left before the Otsutsuki Clan arrives on Blue Star."
"I don't know how strong that clan's true power is, but since they dare to call themselves a clan of gods, they probably won't be weak."
"So, in this year or so, we must try every possible way to arm ourselves."
"Everyone's individual strength is certainly important, but sometimes the advantage of numbers cannot be underestimated either."
"Even ants can bite an elephant to death if there are enough of them, let alone a group of Contractors and Class-Transferred individuals who possess dimensional skills."
These words were like a bombshell, immediately shocking everyone present and causing them to widen their eyes.
Over the years, they had always lived and established themselves amidst the power struggles between people.
In order to obtain more benefits from limited resources.
It could be said that all of their hands were stained with blood.
The Otsutsuki Clan—a name that was once etched into their minds but had now almost been forgotten—sounded so jarring at this moment.
Ronan looked at Jiang Chen with some surprise and asked, "So, the purpose of you founding this guild is to cultivate strong individuals so you can confront the Otsutsuki Clan in a year?"
"Hmm."
Jiang Chen nodded noncommittally.
There was nothing to hide regarding this matter.
The group looked at each other, and for a moment, they all fell silent.
They had originally assumed that Jiang Chen's purpose in creating the guild was the same as everyone else's: to stake out territory and become king, thereby establishing his own sphere of influence.
And then live a life of luxury like a local tyrant.
They never expected that he was actually doing it to confront the legendary Otsutsuki Clan.
After learning of Jiang Chen's true intentions, Ronan and the others felt even more admiration for him.
But at the same time.
Song She and Li Dala also felt immense pressure.
Li Dala made a bitter face and said, "Jiang Chen, it's fine if you ask me to manage a dozen or so people, but if there are more and more people, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it."
Song She also chimed in, saying that he only knew how to do biological research and had absolutely no experience in managing a large guild, hoping that Jiang Chen could find someone else.
This put Jiang Chen in a difficult position.
He didn't know anyone else in Kang City.
Where was he supposed to find a replacement?
"If it's just about managing the guild, then let me do it..."
Just then, a resonant voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
The group turned their heads to look.
They saw a man with his upper body wrapped in bandages already standing at the doorway.
It was none other than the Hall Master of the Thunder God Temple, Lei Li.
Behind Lei Li, a young man with delicate features stood there, fiddling with his center-parted hairstyle.
It was none other than Cai Kun, who had come to collect his debt.
"Sorry, Hall Master Lei. I don't have a place to stay in Kang City, so I'll borrow your Thunder God Temple for a while."
Jiang Chen turned to look at Lei Li. His tone carried a hint of apology, but even more so, an attitude that brooked no refusal.
"You don't need to apologize to me. I said before that as long as you killed Old Granny Yan, my Thunder God Temple would honor you as our master. That statement still holds true now. From this moment on, this Thunder God Temple is yours."
Lei Li was also a man who understood the big picture.
On the way here just now, Cai Kun had already told him what had happened in the ruins of the Puppet City.
Jiang Chen had not only killed that Old Granny Yan at that time.
But he had also killed that guy, Qin Hao.
Even his own life had been saved by him.
Even if he wasn't fulfilling his original promise now.
Just based on this life-saving grace alone.
He had no reason to refuse Jiang Chen.
Besides, his Thunder God Temple was already empty now.
It was just a mere empty shell.
It was nothing more than an external possession.
Why should he care about it?
By voluntarily offering up the Thunder God Temple now, it could be considered repaying Jiang Chen's life-saving favor.
It was no big deal.
"Good. Since Hall Master Lei has this intention, I won't stand on ceremony."
Jiang Chen did not act pretentiously and decisively accepted Lei Li's kind offer.
Subsequently, he changed the subject and looked at Lei Li, asking, "Hall Master Lei, you have experience in managing large guilds. I would like to invite you to be the Vice Guild Leader of the Heavenly Court and have full authority to manage all affairs of the Heavenly Court. I wonder if you are willing?"
"No problem."
Lei Li did not hesitate.
He was already a loner now anyway.
Since Jiang Chen was willing to trust him and was willing to entrust this heavy responsibility to him.
Then he naturally would not betray the other's trust.
Seeing Lei Li take on this heavy responsibility, Song She and Li Dala both breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them were used to being free.
If Jiang Chen had asked them to carry out an assassination mission or a sabotage mission.
They would have had absolutely no complaints.
However.
The other party was asking them to manage a large guild that might have even more members than the Thunder God Temple in the future.
That was a bit difficult for them.
It wasn't that they didn't want to help Jiang Chen with this favor.
It was mainly that they were truly incapable of doing it.
