"You're done talking! Next, tell me something that interests me! " Ren Baqian twisted his buttocks a few times on the couch. To be honest, it wasn't comfortable to sit on this thing at all. The back of the couch was very far away, and he couldn't lean on it at all.
Next time, it would be better to find someone to make a chair and let people carry it wherever they go.
"Please speak, Your Highness!"
"How many sword masters are there in the world now?"
The Sword Master usually did not fight with others, so it was almost impossible to tell. Moreover, they usually appeared in places where there were few people. Therefore, other than themselves, no one knew how many Sword Masters there were in the world.
In fact, Ren Baqian suspected that they didn't even know.
"About a hundred people!" Qing Lian was a little uncertain. She then added, "Between 120 and 150 people."
"How do you know this number? How many have you seen? "Ren Baqian immediately looked interested.
"In fact, there is an organization whose members are all sword slaves. Of course, there are also some ordinary people and cultivators who mainly serve sword slaves. This number was the number that the people in the organization had once said that there were 110 members.
In addition to those who have not been found and those who have just become Sword Masters, I believe that there are no more than 150 people and no less than 120 people. This was not easy to deduce. Sometimes, ten Sword Masters would appear in a year, and sometimes, not even one would appear in several years. There was no pattern at all! Of course, it's also possible that the timeline we paid attention to was too short, so we didn't discover the pattern.
If we stretch the timeline to a few thousand years or even longer, we might be able to find a pattern. "
"As for those I've seen, there are only eight of them," Qing Lian replied after thinking carefully.
He immediately thought of the organization that Ning Caichen had mentioned.
"What's that organization called? How do I contact him? What does this organization do? Did they look for you? How did they determine your identities? "Ren Baqian pondered for a moment before throwing out a series of questions.
"This organization is called Shadow Dream. It's said that every leader's spirit sword is Shadow Dream! In fact, Shadow Dream had existed for a long time. It was said that it had survived from the most glorious era of the sword slaves a thousand years ago. The main thing is for the Sword Masters to exchange materials with each other. They will also release information about some missions. You can complete missions to obtain materials that you need or the detailed location of certain materials. "
Ning Caichen said that this organization had just appeared, but Qing Lian said that it had existed for a long time, at least 1,000 years.
The latter's words were more trustworthy.
Ning Caichen might have just come into contact with the organization, so her knowledge was limited.
However, in order to attract people to join an organization, shouldn't they first introduce their organization's long history to increase their persuasiveness?
This was a little strange.
Could it be two different organizations?
However, there were only over a hundred Sword Masters in total, so how could there be two organizations?
"Also, it's said that the method they used to determine the Sword Master is related to the Shadow Dream."
"Sword Master, is there only one organization?" Ren Baqian asked doubtfully.
"Since Your Highness is asking this, it seems that you have come into contact with other Sword Masters. Is it that Ning Caichen?
In the past, there had only been one organization. However, the members of the organization had different beliefs. Some of them held onto the idea that they had always been detached from the world, while others believed that sword slaves should be restored to their former glory. At the very least, they shouldn't have to live in the wilderness from birth to death.
He should grasp more power and force others to search for resources for him.
These two viewpoints had existed for a long time. Four years ago, they finally split due to some matters. One of them is called Shadow Dream, and the other established an organization called Hidden Dream, "Qing Lian introduced.
Upon hearing this, Ren Baqian finally understood. Ning Caichen was probably one of the few Sword Masters who hadn't been recruited before. He had only come into contact with Hidden Dream and not Shadow Dream. According to the timeline, he was found by Hidden Dream after he came to Dayao.
"Are the people in Hidden Dream inclined to drift away from the world? How many people are there on both sides? "Ren Baqian calculated in his mind and felt that the latter should be easier to deal with.
The former could actually be contacted as well. This group of people was actually divided into two groups. One group had a desire for power that had already taken root in their hearts. These people were unstable factors.
The other group wanted to drive ordinary people to help them search for materials. He could completely recruit these people.
As long as they could meet his requirements, what harm was there in satisfying their wishes?
Ren Baqian then learned from Qing Lian about some of the situations that she knew.
Among them, Shadow Dream had the most people. There were about 80 of them, and only seven or eight of them were at the Spirit Wheel level. The rest were equivalent to the Earth Wheel level.
Among these people, only a few had a desire for power. Even among the seven or eight Spirit Wheel sword masters, most of them only hoped to find materials more quickly by driving ordinary people. They were also greedy for the prosperity of the world.
After all, sword masters were also human, and most people still liked the prosperous world. The loneliness of searching for materials in the wild for a long time was indeed unbearable.
However, if they wanted to drive ordinary people or even martial artists, they had to have a certain amount of power.
As for Hidden Dream, there were only about 20 people, and five or six of them were Spirit Wheel sword masters.
"What's their contact information?"
"Is Your Highness very interested in them? In fact, they are just some pitiful people! " Qing Lian's tone was slightly sarcastic when she said the latter half of the sentence. At the same time, she was also laughing at herself because she was the same kind of person as them.
"Indeed! I have a conjecture that I need them to help me verify. Are any of the sword masters that you have come into contact with particularly talented in this area? For example, you! "
"So, Your Highness has taken a fancy to this ability!" Qing Lian smiled slightly, and her face relaxed a little. After all, she was the same kind of person as them.
"So, how does Your Highness want to treat them?"
"If it's as I think, I think I can reach an agreement with them. They will work for me in exchange for the materials they want. They don't have to stay away from the prosperity of the world and roam the wilderness every day. I can also mobilize enough manpower to search for what they want. There are countless treasures in the Sixty Thousand Mountains, and no one except the aboriginals can get their hands on them. "
"What does Your Highness want them to do?" Qing Lian showed a look of interest when she heard this.
"Perhaps do some research and study the operation of heaven and earth, just like what you learned in school. Perhaps they will become teachers and be responsible for teaching students. The specifics will depend on how far they can go. This is also a good opportunity for them. Whether it is to search for materials in the wilderness or to carry out missions, they will inevitably encounter danger. As long as they use their spirit swords, they will lose their lifespan. However, they don't have to worry at all with me! "
Qing Lian became even more interested.
Great Xia and the previous royal family were tempted by the strength of the sword masters, but they followed the rules and didn't dare to use them. Even if they kept two sword masters in private, it was also because of their fighting strength.
This was because the sword masters usually looked like ordinary people and wouldn't be guarded against. If they were used for assassination, the success rate was extremely high.
However, there was a problem. As long as the sword masters fought, they would lose their lifespan.
Ren Baqian wasn't interested in the sword masters' fighting ability, but their talent in learning. This was very refreshing to her.
If what Ren Baqian said was true, then it was indeed an opportunity for many sword masters.
"I hope that you can help me contact some sword masters. You can use your own resources to contact them or issue missions through those organizations. I want to test whether they are like what I think they are!" Ren Baqian said.
"What can they get?"
"The results of this test can be seen in a few months at the latest, and there are no risks.
If they don't pass the test, I can send 10 winged cavalry warriors to accompany them into the Sixty Thousand Mountains to search for the materials they need. The time limit is six months. No matter how much they find, it will belong to them.
If they pass the test, they will have to stay in Lan City. I can promise them to choose a rare material as a reward.
As for the quantity, it will be increased or decreased according to the value of the material.
I will satisfy them. "
"I can go back and try to contact them! Is there a requirement for strength? "
"No!"
"Understood! I will inform Her Highness as soon as possible. If there is any problem, it is that Lan City is a little different from the prosperous world they imagined! "
"Very soon, Lan City will be more prosperous than any city they have ever seen!" Ren Baqian laughed.
