After dismissing the members of the army, Xiao Ran took a look at the battle report in his hand. Although the participants weren't good at making reports, Xiao Ran didn't see any report that was really like a diary. Although most of these reports were very simple, and one couldn't see too much from these reports, nor could one learn from them, let alone see how much the person who wrote the report had grown during the mission, this was still a good start.
El Erf had been busy with something with his head down. He heard everything Xiao Ran said clearly, but he didn't express any of his opinions, nor did his expression change. Perhaps in El Erf's opinion, Xiao Ran's approach wasn't out of his expectations, so he wasn't surprised at all.
On the other hand, Cruzet sat in front of Xiao Ran and stroked his chin gently. Xiao Ran's arrangement, including the writing of reports, was actually a way to formalize the members of the army. Just like how the native pilots in the world of SEED would submit battle reports and mission reports after a battle or mission, it was a way to let the higher-ups understand the lower-level and improve the lower-level's mobility.
Other aspects, such as the veteran guiding the new, exchanging and learning, were also commonly used in the army to quickly integrate the new recruits into the group. It was also a way to let the new recruits learn more from the veterans, so as to increase their chances of survival. Although it didn't seem special, it was quite practical.
However, this way, it might not be a problem when there were only a few members of the army, but if there were more and more members, it would lead to a problem, and that was, Xiao Ran might become very busy. What Cruzet was most worried about was that Xiao Ran would change from a standard combatant to a pure manager. This was definitely not a good thing for the army and for Xiao Ran himself.
Although the followers could also help, other than Elelv, who was a staff officer, the rest were basically combat personnel and support personnel. There were no followers with true management talents. And once the army expanded to the extent of thousands of people, the increase in tasks would be even more difficult for them to handle.
After all, in Prometheus, it was impossible to find any combatants or participants to serve as assistants and secretaries. Although the problem of assistants and secretaries could be solved, at least there were one or two for now. In the future, there would be five or six members who would be in charge of managing the army. That would be a necessary matter.
In truth, once an army was truly developed, the number of managers they would need was not small. The management of the warehouse, the supply, the arsenal, and so on all required a certain amount of manpower. Perhaps these managers could be carried out by the natives of Prometheus like the army's shops, but the people who would assist in the overall planning would definitely be their own people.
Thinking of this, Cruzet stood up and walked to the stage. He faced Xiao Ran and gently knocked on the table in front of him. When Xiao Ran looked up, he said, "Although your arrangement is good and reasonable, it's impossible for us to keep an eye on everything in the army in the future. The number of members in the army is small now, so we can handle it. But if the army continues to expand, I'm afraid that other than El Erf, none of us will be suitable."
Xiao Ran heard Cruzet's words and sighed. He shook his head and said, "I know about this situation, but the problem now is that we have to truly unite the army. If we wait until the future to deal with this matter, it will definitely be more troublesome. When a true faction appears in the army, we will have to put in more effort to unite them."
"And I also know that as participants, we should put ourselves in the position of combatants rather than managers. But right now, there's no way to find a suitable manager."
Cruzet shook his head and said, "What we lack is not just a manager, but a complete management. A healthy army should have its own management, not a few people standing at the top to coordinate the overall situation. Such an army cannot become a solid pyramid. It's just an unstable structure where a vertical point manages a horizontal line. It's fine if there aren't many members in the army now, but once the number of members increases, the management will become more and more chaotic. It's impossible for one person to be busy. After all, a person's energy is limited, and you can't put most of your energy into managing the army."
Xiao Ran nodded. He knew that Cruzet was right, but it was indeed impossible to find a suitable manager in the current situation. Although El Erf could provide a lot of help in this regard, he wasn't a qualified manager. The position of staff officer was the most suitable position for El Erf.
"Actually …" El Erf suddenly put down the things in his hands and turned to look at Xiao Ran and Cruzet. He said, "At present, these problems are not unsolvable. Now, our management doesn't have to be established in Prometheus. It can be established in the territories of the Fleet and 0079 factions."
"Including the approval of mission reports and the conduct of virtual battles, these can actually be done in the territories. There are enough talents in the two worlds, and there are enough experienced combatants to teach and train the members of the army. Furthermore, there is a complete system of nurturing talents in the two worlds. Although it might not be a great help to the veterans, at least they can get some systematic training. As for the newcomers, if they can train in the two worlds, it will definitely greatly enhance their combat ability and self-defense ability."
"Furthermore, the virtual battle cabins of the Fleet are also more advanced. We can think of ways to upgrade them and let the participants of the army use them. This way, the war achievement points that they should have given to Prometheus will be collected by us and returned to them."
"The points and rewards of the army can also be synchronized with the territory. I believe that it won't be a problem to do this. As long as there is a way to synchronize the statistics, there won't be a problem at all. After all, the points are monitored by the army system and can't be faked. There's also no way to use the same amount of points more than once."
"Other than that, we can also hire the natives of Prometheus to be responsible for the management and operation of the various buildings, including the warehouses, supplies, and factories in the army to perfect the logistical ability of the army. This way, the participants can be freed up to the maximum extent so that they can devote themselves to the execution of the mission. As long as there is someone who can freely travel between the camp territory and the world of Prometheus to coordinate and coordinate, at least for a short period of time, they won't have to worry about the army affecting their energy."
Xiao Ran nodded as he listened. El Erf's suggestion did indeed make up for the series of arrangements he made on impulse. Just like what El Erf said, if the army members were to hand over their points and war achievement points to Prometheus for training, it would be better for him to take the initiative to invest some war achievement points once and for all. At the same time, it would be a channel for him to collect the war achievement points from the army members. When the war achievement points were returned to the army members, they would have more time to rest and enrich themselves in the camp territory.
It was also an excellent idea to establish a preliminary management in the territory to be responsible for all matters of the army. After all, with the army's territory, there was no difference whether the army members were in Prometheus or in the territory. They could travel back and forth without any delay. There was really no need to invest too much in Prometheus to establish a place in the territory that was responsible for the study, training, and communication of the army members. As long as the information on both sides could be completely shared, there would be one or two people who could freely travel between the two worlds to coordinate and manage the various buildings in the territory. It was indeed quite suitable for perfect natives who had no possibility of betrayal or betrayal to manage the buildings in the territory.
When Cruzet heard El Erf's words, he nodded and smiled slightly. Originally, he also wanted to temporarily establish the management in the fleet before making arrangements. However, El Erf's idea was much more perfect than his. With El Erf's arrangement, if it was really carried out, the value of the territory as the army's base camp would be more reflected in the future. This would save the participants and followers a lot of manpower and energy.
Moreover, even if the army grew stronger in the future, it would at most be a matter of arranging a few more coordinators. Even if the army needed more manpower at the base camp, Cruzet believed that Xiao Ran would have a way to 'capture' more followers. Of course, this included followers with the talent and ability to manage. Even if these followers were not combatants, they could use war achievement points to purchase the right to not carry out missions. Even if they were to carry out missions, it would not affect them much if they stayed in the battleship.
Xiao Ran made some arrangements on impulse, but he did not think of what to do next so quickly. However, what El Erf said was indeed the arrangement and solution. After thinking about it, Xiao Ran nodded heavily. "Let's do it this way. El Erf, I'll leave this matter to you."
El Erf nodded. This was not a troublesome matter for him. He had already customized a scoring system based on the performance of the participants, just like the students in the Revolutionary world. However, he was probably the only one who could understand the messy items and scores.
As for letting El Erf do these things, it was not surprising that Xiao Ran did not say anything about cooperating. The real higher-ups in the territories of the two camps also knew about the special situation of Xiao Ran and the others. As the first adviser of Xiao Ran, even if Xiao Ran did not personally appear, El Erf would quickly have someone to deal with and arrange whatever he ordered. Although Xiaya had not yet entered the world of Prometheus, it was only a matter of time. After the next mission cycle, Xiaya, the masked man, would officially become a participant and begin the expedition against Prometheus.
In fact, Xiao Ran was also very interested to see if something interesting would happen when Xiaya and Amro formed a team to fight in Prometheus. For example, if the two of them really entered the later world of 0079, that would be really funny.
Xiaya beating Xiaya, Amro beating Amro? Or vice versa? With the identity of these two people, if they really entered the mission world of UC Century, they would really have an absolute advantage over other participants. It was just unknown whether the main system of Prometheus would arrange for the two of them to enter a similar world.
After receiving the mission, El Erf didn't stay for long and directly left. Xiao Ran took Cruzet to the Legion's building. The others, such as Mary, Graham, and others, stayed in the Legion's encampment, waiting for Xiao Ran to confirm the matter of Aube's faction territory. Nalor left the Legion's encampment to contact the W Squad that had appeared in the 00 world and the Fleet Corp world.
In the Legion's hall, Xiao Ran and Cruzet once again saw the Legion's mascot, cat-eared girl Winnie. The latter's relatively numb eyes confirmed the fact that Aube had become the Legion's territory. Xiao Ran once again spent a million war achievement points to buy a portal between territories. As for where this portal would be built, Xiao Ran was still unsure. Then, Xiao Ran asked Winnie to help him find a few native employees and let them participate in the Legion's daily management.
After Winnie agreed one by one, Xiao Ran asked about the communication device between the territory and Prometheus mentioned by El Erf. Under Winnie's recommendation, he spent 300,000 war achievement points to buy one. This communication device was similar to a mother-child system. The mother-child system was located in the Legion's encampment while the sub-system was located in the faction territory. It could be linked to the Legion's management system to carry out the daily arrangements and management of the Legion. It could completely achieve synchronous communication and information transmission between the two sides. One purchase was valid for life. Even if Xiao Ran obtained more territories, he could rely on this device to link them.
The mother-child system was a large operation room. As for the sub-system, one had to first construct an operation room in the territory. Then, the mother-child system would authorize and then link them. The process wasn't complicated. First, one had to obtain an authorization agreement from the mother-child system and then install it in the sub-system.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. When all the members of the Burning Legion gathered at the legion's encampment, there were five more members in the legion. Team W, which originally only had four members, now had one more female member, adding some color to this all-male team.
