sword sentient beings

Chapter 912 Recruitment

"The evil god from outside the domain, the indescribable thing, the source of all fear..."

Xue Yeyu sat in front of Baiyu Shenghui's counter, reading the "Frontline Express" that had just been delivered, very attentively.

The newspaper was a new thing that had emerged in the past two years. Thanks to the rapid development of instant transmission instruments, a lot of news from thousands of miles away could be transmitted to the human world and to various places at the first time. So, under the suggestion of a certain senior official, the Broken Domain had this first newspaper, which was published every ten days and published first-hand news. Anyone who was a swordsman or above or a force or organization that had made a certain contribution could subscribe.

The newsletter was timely and rich in content, and with the official's deliberate promotion, it expanded to every corner of the human world and the Broken Domain in just two years. Human forces such as Zhuoyu Villa also subscribed to it, and subscribed to several copies, one of which was sent directly to the Baiyu Shenghui headquarters.

Xue Yeyu was reading a newspaper at the counter in the inner hall. He was stunned at the first glance.

The front page of the newspaper was a large photograph of a green monster that looked extremely disgusting, and at the same time terrifying. There was another small picture on the back, which showed a blister that looked like pus, and in the blister, a mass of soft tissue that looked like brain matter could be vaguely seen.

Xue Yeyu immediately felt uncomfortable all over, and wanted to throw away the newspaper and never read it again, but she was also a little curious. Why put such a disgusting thing on the front page? You know, the front page has always only put the results of the battles on the front line or the important decisions of the Sword Court. Even the epic victory of annihilating thousands of demons before, there was no such a big picture.

It would have been better if he hadn't read it. The more Xue Yeyu read, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but clench the newspaper tightly.

"How did this monster suddenly appear? It devoured half of the world? It's a more terrifying and evil enemy than the devil? What enemy is more evil than the devil? Or are they all guilty of death? There's no need to rank them, right?"

"Knock knock." The door opened.

"Come in."

The door opened and a young man came in. He had a handsome appearance and a look as calm as an ancient well without ripples.

When Xue Yeyu saw that it was him, he nodded casually and said, "Wei Se? Or are you here for a new order?"

Dangerously, he said, "Indeed, there is a new order. Just now, one thousand invisible shields were sent from the front line, one thousand..."

Xue Yeyu couldn't help but pinch his forehead and said, "Such a large number again, we are already operating at full capacity. Although Ah Zhao said that taking military supply orders is a good opportunity for our store to take off, it's really a bit too much. It doesn't matter whether we make money or not, the key is that we can't deliver the goods, which will delay the important things on the front line."

He said in a critical tone, "Manager Liu has been looking for subcontractors, and the two that have been confirmed are both acceptable. Especially Long Yuan, who has been actively trying to get more contracts."

Xue Yeyu said, "Yes, Long Yuan has always been very positive. Ah Zhao also said that Long Yuan is capable and has always wanted to get rid of the shadow of the remnants of the previous dynasty. He has always spared no effort in meritorious work and can be entrusted with it appropriately. However, I still don't want to simply subcontract the tasks. I can't just be the leader and manager of a human sword master force. My own strength must also be first-class. In the future, I won't just rely on Ah Zhao's name to receive orders."

It’s really touching to think about it. Before we knew it, Baiyu Shenghui had grown so big that even Long Yuan, one of the seven old forces, became their subcontractor.

Tang Zhao single-handedly founded Baiyu Shenghui. Although he became a hands-off boss after its establishment and the daily operations and expansion mainly relied on backbone members such as Xue Yeyu and Manager Liu, Tang Zhao's role was truly irreplaceable.

The first is to serve as a living signboard to promote Baiyu Shenghui's products in a wider scene, and the second is to receive large orders for the store, from Yunzhou to the court and then to Jianyu, all of which are the largest military supply orders, and are big orders that can make any store take off. But the most important thing is the business philosophy, which is both novel and solid, allowing the store to develop rapidly and steadily, and every step is steady.

Now Xue Yeyu's worries are also happy worries. How can others worry about the shortage of supply? She complained a few words, but she was still full of energy.

He smiled dangerously and said, "Manager Liu has been looking for a foreign sword master. Our Zhuoyu Villa's academy has also expanded several times, and the teaching system has been formed. Everything will be fine."

Xue Yeyu said, "Yes, it will definitely be fine. By the way, what about the Yuanji Palace you mentioned before, the bastards who have been against us, hindered our delivery of orders several times, and damaged our reputation? How are they doing now?"

Wei Se said: "Well, it's okay now."

Xue Yeyu said happily: "Hmm? Have they given up on going against us?" Dangerously, he said: "I guess so."

What they gave up was not only their opposition to Bai Yushenghui, but also their attachment to the world...

  Xue Yeyu breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was a swordsman, she had been busy with her shop business and the technical work of a sword master. She rarely faced enemies and her experience in fighting was close to zero. These things were always left to Wei Se and the others. She couldn't think of what Wei Se would do, but as long as the trouble was gone, wouldn't it be fine?

"Thanks to your help, we all worked together to bring Baiyu Shenghui to where it is today."

Wei looked serious and said, "Sister Xue, I was just about to tell you this. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of the store for a while. I have to go to the front line."

Xue Yeyu was startled and asked, "How... is it your turn?"

All swordsmen basically have to go to the front line, and it has been like this for a long time. In the first three years, due to the short peace, many swordsmen stayed, but with the outbreak of war again, the swordsmen were recruited more frequently than before. Wei Se and Xue Yeyu, as young swordsmen, had never served in the military, and actually had a high priority for recruitment. The reason why they never went was, firstly, to save Tang Zhao's face, and secondly, they were actually military supply suppliers, and they were also contributing to the war, which was equivalent to serving in the military.

But if we ignore these additional conditions, it is not wrong to recruit Wei Se as a swordsman. Although Xue Yeyu was surprised and reluctant, he could not stop it.

She just frowned and said, "I heard that there's a monster on the front line. It's called Mo Ke..." She unfolded the newspaper and said, "It's an indescribable horrible monster. It looks very dangerous. You won't run into it on the front line, will you?"

Wei Yan hesitated for a moment, then told the truth: "We are going to conquer this monster. Jianshan has decided to intervene in the war in the Heavenly Demon Realm and send a large army to attack the evil monster. This newspaper and various news from the front line should be the preparation for this matter. For this battle, the reserve forces that were still in the human world were recruited again, such as me."

Xue Yeyu was very puzzled and asked, "Teaming up with the demons? How can this be possible?"

"For the sake of the overall situation, the lips and teeth are interdependent. Right now, this monster is the most dangerous enemy."

  Seeing Xue Yeyu's expression, Wei Se knew that she didn't understand. In fact, this is the normal state of the human world and the front line. The human world and the demons have been fighting for so many years, and they have a deep hatred for each other. How can it be reversed by saying "the overall situation is important" or publishing some images of the evil gods in the newspapers and writing a few articles to promote the power of the evil gods?

Xue Yeyu, who had been in the rear, couldn't understand it, so how could those swordsmen who had been fighting bloody battles with the demons on the front lines for several years or even half of their lives understand it?

In fact, the reason why Wei Se could accept it was that he was indifferent, but more importantly, he believed in Tang Zhao. Tang Zhao had written to him before and mentioned that the strategy on the front line had a lot to do with Tang Zhao. It can even be said that Tang Zhao alone was driving the development of the overall situation. So this decision must have been approved by Tang Zhao. So Wei Se would choose to support it.

On the contrary, if Tang Zhao objects, Wei Se will also object.

Xue Yeyu felt uncomfortable, but she was powerless to interfere, so she could only say: "Be careful when you go to the front line. The evil god is so terrifying that you definitely can't fight him. Just follow the main force. It's important to gain glory, but you have to take care of your own life even more."

He said in a dangerous tone, "I have always cherished my life. Sister Xue, don't worry. I have accumulated sword energy to a certain extent now. I am just trying to sharpen my sword heart, reach the level of telepathy, and become a swordsman in one fell swoop. Going to the front line to sharpen my skills now will also fulfill my wish. After I leave, the defense will be handed over to Senior Brother Jiang. Fortunately, we should not have any strong enemies. The scope of the call-up this time is not small. Most of the swordsmen who are strong enough have been withdrawn. The ones left in the world are just some crooked ones. I think Sister Xue can handle it."

Xue Yeyu was surprised and asked, "So many people? Then in Yunzhou Prefecture..."

"A lot of people should have been drafted. In the past, the court and local government offices did not draft officials except those with military posts, but this time they are heavily recruited. For example, several commanders of the Yunzhou District Inspection Office, including the criminal commander, should have also received orders to go to the expedition. According to the instructions, I will gather at the Yunzhou Recruiting Office. I should be able to meet a few acquaintances and have company on the way."

Xue Yeyu was horrified when he heard this and asked, "So many people? Where are they going? Shouldn't we use the strongest sword immortals and sword saints to fight the evil god? What's the use of you swordsmen? Are you going to kill the evil god with your numbers?"

Although the survival of mankind is also due to the successive generations of swordsmen who fought bravely and fearlessly, and the power of swordsmen also played a huge role, there is a difference between fighting a demon with equal or slightly better strength and fighting such an indescribable monster that no one knows how to attack. Xue Yeyu would not refuse to fight on the front line, but he always felt guilty when facing such a monster.

Wei Se shook his head and said, "How could that be? The Sword Saints on Jianshan Mountain, and you, are all wise men. They must have thought about what to do next before making such a far-reaching decision. Since they have recruited us, they will naturally put us in a useful place."

Xue Yeyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, Ah Zhao is still here. He can always be trusted."

Wei Se continued, "However... a conscription of this scale cannot be sustained, and the logistics cannot support it for too long. I think... this time we really have to kill it all in one go, right?"
