Chapter 133: Military Salary Issue

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Song Yubai and the others assumed Xu Chu did not acquire anything valuable after they had finished clearing the battlefield.

However, when they saw Xu Chu controlling the Giant War Trees, they were stunned.

“My lord, I don’t know what this thing is called, but it can control the Giant war Trees!”

Xu Chu explained to Mei Changge with a smile.

“Moreover, I’ve brought all the Giant War Trees over. They’re outside Green

Lotus City now.”

“Oh, Giant War Trees?”

Mei Changge’s eyes lit up as he looked at the item in Xu Chu’s hand.

Guo Jia stepped forward, took the green block from Xu Chu’s hand, and passed it to Mei Changge.

Mei Changge took it and saw the name of the item through his interface.

Tree Heart (Grade 8)

Level: Innate Level 9

Introduction: Control the Giant War Trees’ core with ease for various offensive purposes and more.

“Interesting. It seems the Giant War Trees are not unique to the Forest race.”

Mei Changge raised his eyebrows slightly, and a look of realization appeared on his face.

No wonder the Forest race’s control over the Giant War Trees wasn’t as cohesive as their cultivation of the trees. This was the underlying reason.

Regarding the Forest race’s Transcendents, when they battled Mei Changge, he had realized that what they had originally cultivated had transformed into their divine arts.

For instance, Shan, whom he had fought against Mei Changge, had likely cultivated a species of vine tree. Upon becoming a Transcendent, it transformed into his Green Vine Body.

“My lord, there are a total of 41 Giant War Trees. I have controlled them to remain outside Green Lotus City.”

As Xu Chu spoke, he took out a spatial bag. Inside were the Tree Hearts that controlled the Giant War Trees.

“Feng Xiao, take them first.”

Mei Changge informed Guo Jia. The Giant War Trees could prove valuable in

the future, and since he didn’t have an immediate need for them, he decided to let Guo Jia handle them for the time being. “My lord, actually, Li Xin discovered the Giant War Trees.”

Xu Chu said. He wouldn’t steal Li Xin’s credit.

When Mei Changge heard Xu Chu’s words, he looked at the unfamiliar man standing beside Song Yubai.

It was Li Xin, who had followed Xu Chu when he entered.

“Greetings, my lord! I’m Li Xin of the Mystic Yang soldiers!”

Li Xin had a respectful expression. After hearing Xu Chu’s words, he went forward and greeted Mei Changge.

“Li Xin, huh? Excellent job. I have two rewards for you. First, you will serve as a general when we expand the Mystic Yang soldiers. Second, you’ll receive

Myriad Lotus Coins and other valuable treasures.”

“What do you think?”

Mei Changge looked at Li Xin with a satisfied expression.

Being recommended by Xu Chu meant that Li Xin was definitely capable. Mei Changge naturally would not be stingy.

“Thank you, my lord!”

When Li Xin heard Mei Changge’s words, his face was filled with joy. He did not expect that not only would he be rewarded with treasures, but he would also have a chance to become a general when the Mystic Yang soldiers were expanded in the future.

“Don’t worry. Although you’re a soldier, as long as you make contributions, I’ll reward you rightfully.”

Mei Changge said with a smile.

“However, you may need to wait a few days for this reward. Feng Xiao and I will be addressing the matter of military salaries in the upcoming days, and once it’s settled, your reward will be distributed to you.”

Mei Changge shifted his gaze from Li Xin to Song Yubai and the others.

As soon as he said this, everyone’s faces were filled with joy.

Receiving a salary meant they would have a stable source of income, which brought them great satisfaction.

Previously, not all soldiers had the privilege of receiving a salary. Now, the salary the lord mentioned clearly extended not only to them but also to the basic soldiers under their command.

To them, it was already a blessing to be able to become a soldier. Now that they had military pay, it was a pleasant surprise.

Once they became soldiers, their loyalty would steadily grow. This loyalty was subtly nurtured.

After news of the salary spread to other soldiers, their loyalty would increase exponentially.

“Thank you, my lord!”

When they heard Mei Changge’s words, their faces were filled with joy.

“My lord, these are all the corpses of the Forest race. They are in the spatial bag. ”

“My lord, these are all the ores of the Forest race.”

Song Yubai and Xu Ding took out their spatial bags at the same time and said to Mei Changge.

“Alright, your rewards will be distributed along with the military salary.”

Mei Changge smiled and stretched out his palm. The spatial bag containing the corpses of the foreign races was put into his Blessed Land, and the bag of ores was thrown to Guo Jia.

“My lord, we will take our leave first.”

Upon observing that he had turned over everything to Mei Changge, Xu Chu realized that his lord and Guo Jia intended to hold a private discussion and tactfully sought to take his leave.

“Wait!”

Guo Jia looked at the ores in the spatial bag and said solemnly.

Mei Changge also looked at Guo Jia.

“My lord, the Forest race’s territory has a mineral vein. This is also beneficial to us. I suggest that we guard the mine. It will definitely be useful in the future.” Guo Jia cupped his hands at Mei Changge.

Upon hearing this, Mei Changge nodded in concurrence. Whether it was city construction or other endeavors, ores would be indispensable.

“My lord, I’ve taken a look. The mineral vein in the Forest race’s territory should be a green rock mine. It’s exactly the same as the bricks refined by the Creation Camp.”

“The other ore is iron ore. We won’t have any issues crafting various tools with it. ”

Guo Jia took out two types of ores from the spatial bag and said to Mei Changge.

“In that case, Yubai, send some soldiers to the mine to prevent them from being occupied by other foreign races.”

When Mei Changge heard Guo Jia’s words, he said to Song Yubai. “Yes, my lord. I promise to protect the mine.”

Song Yubai cupped his hands and replied with a serious expression.

Even Xu Ding did not expect the Forest race’s mine to be so useful.

“By the way, Xu Chu, teach Zhang Xiang some cultivation techniques first. I’ll send him into the soldier pool in a few days.”

“Yes, my lord!”

Xu Chu replied promptly and the few of them left Green Lotus Palace.

“Feng Xiao, how did it go with the task I assigned you to investigate the matter of military salaries?”

After Xu Chu and the others left, Mei Changge looked at Guo Jia and asked.

“My lord, I think the salary of soldiers should be based on strength.”

Hearing Mei Changge’s words, Guo Jia’s expression turned serious.

After all, soldiers were primarily tasked with combat, so strength served as the key criterion to maintain the equilibrium of their ranks.

The military salary would undoubtedly be paid in Myriad Lotus Coins, and Guo Jia proposed that it should commence from Postnatal Level 1. Soldiers at Postnatal Level 1 would receive a salary of 10 Myriad Lotus Coins.

Soldiers in Postnatal Level 2 would receive 20 Myriad Lotus Coins, and so on.

In the Innate realm, it would be 100 Myriad Lotus Coins..
