Soon, his subordinates found out that the Grand Arcanist's real name was Fu Haofei. He was born in an ordinary family. After graduating from an ordinary Divine Domain University, he joined a civilian exploration company and became the company's contracted Mage.
Later, as his strength continued to grow, his status became higher and higher. When he stepped into the level of a Grand Arcanist, he became independent from the company. Although he was affiliated with the company, he was independent and did not accept recruitment from other companies. At most, he cooperated with them and lived a free life.
However, half an hour later, Lin Xiao returned to the base's reception room and saw the Grand Arcanist named Fu Haofei.
This Descender, who never accepted other companies' recruitment, immediately stood up when he saw Lin Xiao, who was escorted into the reception room by a few subordinates, carrying Venus on their shoulders. He looked at Lin Xiao with great sincerity and shouted respectfully.
"Sir General!"
Lin Xiao smiled and waved his hand.
"Don't worry, I don't mean anything else."
He sat on the main seat and gestured for him to sit down.
"I'm Lin Xiao, the Commander of the Giant God Legion of the Fifth Theater of Operations. I don't like to beat around the bush. If you have something to say, I invited you here today mainly because of your talent in making Golems and Puppets, as well as your achievements in Arcana. I'm going to establish a Grand Arcanist Legion within the legion. I need a group of outstanding Grand Arcanists as officers and mentors, and you meet my requirements. So, are you willing to join the army?"
"Ah …"
Fu Haofei was obviously stunned for a moment. The expression on his face quickly changed into uncontrollable joy. He quickly stood up and said,
"Sir General, you think so highly of me. How can I not know what's good for me? I'm willing!"
"Well, that's for the best!"
Lin Xiao nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Later, you'll go through the necessary procedures.
"You can go through the procedures later. I will order people to cooperate with you. You can challenge some members in the reserve force who are interested in this aspect. First, establish a team framework. There is no need to rush now. First, choose suitable people and set up the framework. You can also tell me if you have any requests."
After hearing that, Fu Haofei clenched his fists and asked with some apprehension.
"Well, can I ask about my salary and position?"
Lin Xiao smiled when he heard that.
"Don't worry. Although our legion has not been established for long, the treatment is not bad. You've just joined, so the highest rank you can be assigned is Sergeant. However, I've decided that the legion of grand arcanists that I'm about to establish will be an official brigade. There will be a hundred official quotas, and the captain will be a regular major."
"But I'll say the ugly words first. Although this general has high expectations for this team, I can't guarantee you that you'll be able to become the captain. In the military, it has always been the tradition of the capable and the outstanding. If in the future, a soldier who is stronger and more outstanding than you appears in the team, don't blame me for not warning you if you can't win."
Fu Haofei patted his chest and nodded.
"Don't worry, Sir General. If there is anyone who is better and stronger than me, I will accept it wholeheartedly."
"Very well, it's good that you know."
Lin Xiao didn't say too much. As long as one had the slightest bit of ambition, they would know how to choose. Fu Haofei clearly had ambition, otherwise, he wouldn't have immediately joined the battle.
Although the information showed that he seemed to be a wild crane that was unwilling to be tied down, in fact, everyone had ambition. It was just that no one had the opportunity to move him.
And Lin Xiao's conditions had completely moved him.
For a regular army like his, although he could apply to join with his qualifications, there definitely wouldn't be any good opportunities. Most of the time, he would only be a small officer. It was too difficult for a Grand Arcanist to rise up in the True God system. Now that he had encountered such a rare opportunity, as long as he had a normal brain, he would know how to choose.
Lin Xiao didn't take the initiative to recruit Fu Haofei on a whim. Instead, he had thought it through carefully.
Because of the strength of the True God system, many factions didn't value the Mage system. Even if many factions recruited various Mages and Arcanists, it was because of the advantages of this system at a lower level. Once a Mage reached the level of a True God, they would have no advantage over a True God.
Not to mention combat strength, even the most basic lifespan Mages couldn't compare to a True God with eternal life.
Not to mention that Mages had all kinds of methods to extend their lifespans, many of which were almost immortal. However, no matter how many methods they had, they couldn't compare to the word "eternal."
One was limited, while the other was infinite. The difference was too great.
Even if one became an undead creature like a Lich, there would still be situations where one's soul would wither. Although the process would be very, very slow, and it could be replenished by devouring souls. Up until now, there had never been a Lich that died because of the withered soul, but …
One could ascend to Godhood and become an eternal True God, while the other could become an undead creature that didn't even have a penis. Which one was better?
Not to mention that True Gods were restricted by their Divine Duties, while Mages didn't have such problems. That was because native True Gods were restricted by their Divine Duties, while Children of the Divine Territory didn't have such restrictions. The various effects of the Divine Duties on True Gods were borne by the Divine Territory, while Children of the Divine Territory wouldn't be affected by the Divine Duties at all. Even if they were stripped of their Divine Duties, they wouldn't be like native True Gods who would be dragged into the Astral Plane by their believers' distracting thoughts.
After saying so much, it seemed that the Mage system couldn't compare to the True God system at all.
In a way, this was indeed the case. However, in Lin Xiao's eyes, the Mage system had an advantage that True Gods couldn't compare to — adaptability!
Yes, adaptability to different world systems.
Compared to the True God system, because it was too powerful, it would be greatly suppressed in many Crystal Wall Universes with strict rules. True Gods who mastered the laws would attract attention like candlelight in the dark when they entered a foreign world. They would be easily discovered by the Will of the World, and the more powerful a True God was, the more difficult it would be to sneak in.
However, Mages were different. Not to mention powerful Mages, they would also be suppressed if they were too powerful.
However, weak Mages wouldn't be suppressed after they descended, and they wouldn't be easily discovered. Moreover, even if powerful Mages were suppressed, they wouldn't be targeted like True Gods.
Using the Sorcerer World as an example, no matter if it was a powerful True God or a weak Demigod, even if it was an extremely weak divine creature, they would still be suppressed like dogs. However, Mages were different. Even if Great Arcanists were suppressed because they were too powerful, they would still retain a small part of their characteristics that surpassed mortals.
For example, weak Spirit Power or Magic Power. With these as seeds and the accumulation of one's own experience, it would be very easy to recover Magic Power and become powerful again.
The Mage system didn't need to be very powerful. This alone was enough for him to invest a certain amount of resources to build a powerful team of Great Arcanists specifically to attack some strange worlds that weren't suitable for True Gods to descend.
Thinking about this time's attack on Crystal Wall Universe no. CY- 00801, if a large team of 100 Great Arcanists sneaked in first, it wouldn't take long for them to adapt to the rules of the world. By the time the large team descended, 100 Great Arcanists would probably be enough to establish a huge Mage Empire.
Anyway, it was only a quota for a large team. Out of the ten large teams in a battle group, one wasn't much. Most battle groups were never full of official members, so even if they were empty, they would still be empty.
For the next period of time, Lin Xiao's avatar stayed at the outpost base to deal with various affairs. He coordinated the joint operations with the Split-claw Dragon Battle Group and also communicated with a few of his girlfriends to tell them how much he missed them.
As his strength grew stronger and stronger, his avatar had now been promoted to a great Divine Power. This had already crossed the most difficult stage of becoming a great Divine Power. This meant that his real body had already entered the preparatory stage of becoming a great Divine Power. As long as he accumulated a few more times, it would be enough for his real body to become a great Divine Power.
This had a great impact on his girlfriends. Shen Yuexin was working hard to develop a bunch of large or super-large plane groups that included a main material plane that her father had given her. In the words of their communication, she had to work hard to improve and become a great Divine Power before he did.
With a great Divine Power father, she didn't have any bottlenecks before she became a great Divine Power. There were almost unlimited resources at her disposal.
For Shen Yuexin, the only problem was to descend to a foreign world. Like Lin Xiao, she had to become a great Divine Power in a different world and plunder the foreign world's laws to replenish the main world. This was the mandatory condition for all children of the divine territory to become a great Divine Power. Even her father, who was a great Divine Power, couldn't be exempted from this condition.
Xie Yufei was now the same as Shen Yuexin. In the past, she wasn't in a hurry and grew up step by step.
But now, she had a boyfriend. Not only was her boyfriend outstanding, but her sister's family background was, in a sense, better than hers. She was also anxious.
Now, she was the official commander of the Raging Flame Battle Group and had led the battle group to conquer the foreign world. In this regard, Xie Yufei, who came from a military family, was stronger than Shen Yufei. It could be expected that Xie Yufei would be more powerful if they had the same Divine Power.
As for Jin Sisi, she had now resigned from her position as a teacher in the Radiance University and was transferred to the Radiance Exploration Department.
This department was one of the core departments of Radiance and was directly under the jurisdiction of Radiance's Supreme Senate. Its duties were, as its name suggested, responsible for the exploration of Radiance's foreign world. It was extremely dangerous and correspondingly trained people. Those who could make it out were the elites of the elites.
Although Lin Xiao was very worried about this, he didn't persuade her too much.
Even Shen Yuexin, who came from a family background, had to take the risk to descend to a foreign world when she became a great Divine Power in the future. A family like hers couldn't rely on them and could only rely on their own elites. If they wanted to achieve great things in the future, they had to take this path. No one could avoid it.
There were many great Divine Powers in Radiance's Supreme Senate and great Divine Power generals in various war zones. Which one of them didn't walk this path?
As long as she didn't want to be the worst among his women in the future, she had to work hard.
Now was not the time to be sentimental. They were all very outstanding. They either had extraordinary backgrounds or extraordinary abilities. These were all assets. If they didn't use these assets, it would be a waste.
Moreover, if they wanted to be together, they themselves needed to be strong enough to block out the voices of the secular world.
If the four of them became great Divine Powers and had a status that matched their status, who could object to them being together?
Perhaps their families would still disagree. With their ancient family background, there might really be some old antiques in their family.
Then what about when Lin Xiao became a great Divine Power?
When he became a great Divine Power, even the God of Radiance, who was also a great Divine Power, couldn't object.
In the end, it was still a matter of power.
