Chapter 76: Baiting the Big Fish with a Long Line
After finishing his conversation with Enoch, Ton was stunned on the spot for a long time.
However, he quickly came back to his senses and immediately sent a message to the founding Salvation Alliance members.
In less than three minutes, the founding Salvation Alliance members gathered together.
“Yo, Ton! Why did you call us over in such a hurry!? “Didn’t we just finish the meeting?” Muse acted as if he was very familiar with Ton as he patted his shoulder.
However, he tactfully put down his hand upon receiving Ton’s supercilious glance.
He had not seen this expression on Ton’s face for a long time. He vaguely remembered that when they had first met, Ton would only show this expression when he was alert, complaining, and angry about everything.
What had happened in such a short period that made Ton seem like a different person? The faint confidence and indifference from before had disappeared.
“What happened?” Muse erased his cheeky smile.
“I talked to Enoch just now. His ability is terrifying. He discerned one of my talents just by talking to me once. Moreover, he doesn’t plan to join our Salvation Alliance. It seems that we have to speed up our pace.” Ton clenched his fists as he spoke.
“This guy is a threat!” Ton’s eyes gradually turned cold.
Muse immediately understood what Ton meant and explained to the others, “Indeed. His talent is similar to Ton’s. If he still plans to be a lone wolf, that’s a real threat. We’d better plan as soon as possible and expand the influence so that he won’t be a threat to us.
“If he likes to be a lone wolf, then let him do it. But we must not let him get in our way. But the premise is that we have enough strength. Without that strength, everything will be difficult.”
The other members continued to remain silent upon hearing that.
As long as the plan could proceed, it didn’t matter what means they used.

To put it bluntly, they just wanted to be a tool person and enjoy the benefits.
Of course, they didn’t know what they were dealing with yet.
“Yes, so we need to start the first step of the plan as soon as possible. Start increasing the number of people. How are your preparations going? If we start now, how many people can we have?”
The others nodded upon hearing that.
“There are a total of 30 people on my side who are willing to join the Salvation Alliance. They are not loyal, but they are as obedient as dogs. However, to put it bluntly, they are all people who do not have the strength. They are all living on the resources I have given them.”
“I have 50 people on my side.”
“20 people.”
“70 people.”
“On my side…”
Ton was relatively satisfied when the others mentioned the number of people they had roped in.
The Salvation Alliance could accommodate nearly 350 people in the initial stage!
As long as these 350 people were properly managed, there would be a straight line of increase, be it resources or combat strength.
Although these people were all pieces of trash and did not dare to step out of their floating islands, Ton and the others could use the management method they had previously developed to manage them.
As long as they were able to allocate the work methods, they could speed up the next step of their plan.
“Then, we’ll start the area management now.” freewebn(o)vel
“Leave all the support-type talents to me. I’ll be in charge of rewarding a brand new ‘love network’.
“Shazan will be in charge of the planting-type talents, as well as those who don’t know how to fight and those who aren’t willing to fight.
“The rest of you are in charge of assisting them. We will prioritize the issue of everyone’s meals.
“Muse, you are in charge of contacting the Divine Master teams with S-class talents. Hire them to join the Salvation Alliance first and slowly devour them later.
“Do you all understand your responsibilities?”
“Yes.”
The founding members nodded.
Once this plan got in motion, they would no longer be mere Salvation Alliance members.
“From now on, we’ll call each other ‘Leader’. I’m the Chief Leader.
“Remember not to tell the other members about our talents. At this stage, it’s forbidden to have any relations with the members, and it’s forbidden to ask for the members’ items and equipment.
“Since it is a long-term plan, we have to fish for big fish.
“I will give everyone one day. When the invasion rankings are announced, we will have the next meeting.”
As the plan progressed, Ton’s tone gradually began to change.
The others also felt a hint of authority from this tone.
Therefore, they began to cooperate at this time.
After that, Muse waited for the other group leaders to leave, then he stayed behind to talk to Ton alone.
“Since they are mercenaries, should we have a target? I’m afraid that a simple task won’t be able to arouse their interest.” (f)reewebnovel.com
Muse didn’t want to reach out without any conditions. Not only would he fail, but he would also arouse their disgust, which would make it challenging to hire them again in the future.
“Yes, I’ve already thought about this.
“Recently, I’ve collected information. Other than the instance of the farm, there might be a second instance. It’s a park in Maka Town.
“The specific coordinates are here. You just need to tell them about this. The other party will definitely be interested.”
Ton took out a scroll with a hand-drawn map of Maka Town.
Behind the police station and the supermarket was a park. Generally speaking, it was a little far from Maka Town, but it was still within its range.
Muse’s expression changed slightly upon looking at the coordinates on the map.
Until now, he still did not understand what Ton’s talent was and why he could even know such things.
It was not a small matter. Since Ton had drawn a map, it meant that he had been to these places many times. It was as if he knew these places like the back of his hand.
However, he rarely saw Ton go out.
Although Muse knew that Ton’s talent was intelligence-related, he did not know how it worked.
From these two points, it was impossible to deduce whether Ton relied on his talent to obtain intelligence or whether he learned it by going out on his own.
Muse gave up on trying to figure out Ton’s talent and began discussing about the mercenary mission with Ton. “In that case, how about this…”
Unfortunately, they could not know that they were destined to fall short in the next step of their plan. The biggest beneficiary would be Enoch!
