After the dinner ended, it was already close to 9 PM. Li Zheng used the teleportation permission’s return effect to go back to channel 995. Just as he landed, Li Zheng got busy again, contacting Liu Qi over there. After obtaining the previously agreed-upon items, he sent them according to the plan to Zhan Zhouzhou and the others for them to arrange. Then he put up several big pots of freshly made dishes in the legion’s internal trade hall for the new recruits to taste. The first batch of members that Li Zheng recruited were basically new players, with Lin Longxuan being the strongest among them, with Silver Level fighting power. These people were carefully selected by Li Zheng, but in the eyes of other old players, they could be summed up in two words: all trash! However, Li Zheng was very attentive to this "trash" that others couldn’t see values in, not only posting the first three stages of potion formulas in the legion hall but also spending a lot of ingredients to cook enough dishes to distribute to all legion members. In the memories of these new players, it had been almost twenty days since they last ate such delicious food, they were nearly moved to tears. It’s important to know that even if Li Zheng was cooking in mass, he could achieve the level of a five-star hotel chef! Just from the distribution of one batch of dishes, the loyalty of the first batch of Starting Point Legion members to Li Zheng increased rapidly. If any legion dared to try to poach them now, they would probably be bombarded with criticism. Li Zheng browsed the world channel for a while and found that no one had noticed these new players yet. Today’s terminal announcement was made too late, so most old players hadn’t discovered the key point. However, Li Zheng estimated that by tomorrow, those legions might realize and would extensively recruit new players. Then, the status would reverse, and new players would pick legions while bargaining for the best deal. During the dinner, Li Zheng had already gained an initial understanding of the legion’s functionalities. Besides basic features like chatting and member management, there was also an internal legion warehouse. This warehouse could only be operated by Li Zheng and people with assigned permissions, and Li Zheng gave the permissions to some old players who have been with him until today. Except for Lu Li, as Li Zheng was worried he might mess up the legion warehouse on a whim one day. Additionally, other members could exchange items for legion points and then use points to redeem the corresponding items in the warehouse. As for handling point-related matters, Li Zheng left it to others to worry about, while he directly became a hands-off boss. Lastly, he threw thousands of remaining Snake Grass Needles into the legion warehouse, setting a reasonable point price as another wave of legion benefits. Moreover, items like the water purifier, Technology Cup, AK-47, Icarus’ Ham, Salted Fish Spear, Daiyu Spear, and other items Li Zheng no longer needed were also thrown into the warehouse. Even an electromagnetic pistol was placed in the warehouse by Li Zheng. Not for anything else, just to boost the motivation for this batch of members to strive. For this first batch, Li Zheng didn’t intend to control their development. At least for the first few days, he wouldn’t control them, as many are at Black Iron Level power now. Controlling them in this situation would be too heartless. Almost every time Li Zheng put a bit of something into the warehouse, it would cause a heated discussion within the legion. Everyone was very excited since many things Li Zheng put out were quite useful to them. However, surprisingly to Li Zheng, the item that sparked widespread discussion was again the Technology Cup. In the legion, male and female members’ opinions on this item were so polarized that they nearly started arguing. Until... Lu Li put another corresponding item on the warehouse shelf, plunging the legion channel into a momentary silence. Function: Those who understand will understand!] Soon after, some of the old players seemed to want to set a good example, one after another placing items into the legion warehouse. There were low-tier equipment fragments, low-tier pet food, low-tier healing items, low-tier weapons, low-tier armor/combat suits, etc. Almost every single one was an essential item for novice players. They only needed to put their available items into the warehouse to earn corresponding points, which could then be used to exchange for their desired items. Then, a few of them also put some of the blueprints they could make into the legion hall, allowing anyone who collected enough materials to pay a few points as a commission to directly commission the crafting. Li Zheng didn’t participate in this part, as he was still hoping to make money from blueprints like potions. If it weren’t for the slow potion manufacturing process, Li Zheng wouldn’t even need these members to hold back; he could directly trade low-tier items outside with potions. Once everything within the legion was handled, Li Zheng brought up the Mysterious Declaration to continue tonight’s exploration. Looking at those metal doors now, the information obtained was completely different from that of the morning. In the morning, Li Zheng could occasionally see rooms with Platinum or even Gold difficulty. Now, after bringing up the Mysterious Declaration, the tips from each door started at Diamond at the lowest. "So now my overall strength is classified as Extraordinary?" Li Zheng felt a twinge of realization; perhaps his physique and other factors had lowered the battle power rating of the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade. But in reality, ordinary Star Shining creatures were like vegetables in front of Li Zheng, easily sliced. He could shape them into whatever form he wanted. "Oh, there’s something else I haven’t done." Li Zheng stopped, opened a private chat, found the chat windows of Misaka Tsuchiemon and Phoenix Mountain, and sent the confidentiality agreement regarding Prel’s Eye to them for signing. Two Prel’s Eyes rented out earned two "Whoa" responses. The most distressed was Phoenix Mountain, who upon getting it, got goosebumps all over. At that moment, many things that hadn’t made sense before suddenly became clear. No wonder Li Zheng wasn’t tempted by the pocket watch at all back then; he had such an incredible ability all along. Dıscover more novels at 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥 No wonder Li Zheng’s strength increased so quickly; he had such an extraordinary ability. No wonder Li Zheng could remain calm no matter what opponent he faced, because... Countless realizations intertwined into a network in Phoenix Mountain’s heart, making it hard for him to breathe. However, the next moment he suddenly realized an even more distressing issue. Because of the signed confidentiality agreement, he had to hide the existence of Prel’s Eye from Yan Guang... In the future, there might be rooms he thought he could beat, but after Yan Guang’s pocket watch examined them, they would be deemed unbeatable. Li Zheng didn’t care about their reactions, he picked up the lamp, took the knife, and with Xiao Ying, began tonight’s exploration. To ensure his physique could quickly catch up with the growth of his strength, Li Zheng specifically sought out Diamond-ranked creatures to hunt tonight. Unless absolutely necessary, he wouldn’t go to other types of rooms. Because the difficulty wasn’t high, Li Zheng’s exploration speed was very fast; in less than two hours, he had explored nine rooms. On his tenth exploration opportunity, Li Zheng stood before the last metallic door, swiped his card, and went in. Once the light screen vanished, in front of his eyes was a vast grassland. Within his view, there was a capsule residence opened there.
