Chapter 1023 Promotion Globe

Chapter 1023  Promotion Globe

Strengthening the Summons enough for them to keep up with the growth of the Untamed Awakened wasn't possible except if all Summons transformed into 7-Star Summons. Maybe that would increase their potential and grant them Innate powers strong enough to rival Awakened and their Soultraits.

However, upgrading every Summon to a 7-Star Summon wasn't possible. It was simply not feasible. However, Michael could do something else.

"How about we sell Promotion Globes in the Jungle Shop? They're not cheap, and we know only a few of them will work – the higher the star rating, the lower the success rate – but it should be worth a try, don't you think so?" Michael asked Siegfried, who studied his Lord for a while.

"My Knights won't have an easy time procuring the Promotion Globes, and their efficiency will deteriorate once they become 4-Star Knights, but I think it is worth a try. The motivation of all Sacred Knight Temple members should improve considerably after we offer them Promotion Globes to keep up with the Awakened," Siegfried nodded slowly.

He allowed the idea to rummage through his mind and come to live in his imagination. The idea was good, but the expenses would be tremendous. The price of the Promotion Globes was far from cheap. The better the quality of the Promotion Globes, the higher the price. That was only obvious, but so was a particular fact. Purchasing Promotion Globes in bulk and selling them to the Summons for the same price – converted in Jungle Points – wouldn't save anything. "Something had to be adjusted; otherwise, the Summons would be agitated instead of relieved. You cannot expect them to work tirelessly for decades before they can purchase a single Promotion Globe. They're that expensive, after all." Michael understood that point. The Promotion Globes would be much more expensive than the price he had listed for Artifacts, Spirit Armaments, and Soultraits. If Michael didn't change the pricing, a single Promotion Globe would be as valuable as a 6-Star Soultrait Symbol. But that was where the problem lay.

Michael couldn't produce Promotion Globes out of nowhere, whereas Soultrait Symbols were easy to procure. Everyone was aware of that point, but Summons would never understand his pricing of a Promotion Globe. After all, a single star rating upgrade would never be enough. They had to increase their star ratings a few times to keep up with the Awakened and push even further to surpass them.

"I can purchase the Promotion Globes and offer them for a lower price. Even if I make some losses, quite a lot of losses, to be fair, I will satisfy the Summons. However, we must add conditions before giving the Summons access to the Promotion Globes."

Siegfried listened up and waited for Michael to continue.

"I think it is only fair to demand that the Summons have to reach the peak of 'education' in the Sacred Knight Temple, the Hunter Academy, and so forth, to access the Promotion Globe purchase option. That means the Hunters must reach 4-Star, Sacred Knights need to be 3-Stars, Architects have to become Grandmaster Architects at 4-Star, and Grandmaster Blacksmiths must advance to the 5th Star before being given access."

Siegfried contemplated it for a bit, nodded, and then shook his head.

"That doesn't seem fair. The Blacksmiths will haunt you the most for this decision, whereas the Sacred Knights will have the easiest time. I am glad for the Sacred Knights since I'm…well, their Instructor and the leader of the Sacred Knight Temple, but isn't that wrong?"

"Of course, it is. But I think you underestimate the resilience of the Grandmaster Blacksmiths…or the amount of money they earn. The Grandmaster Blacksmiths will have a much easier time procuring Promotion Globes than the rest. As for Master Blacksmiths, they can still learn a lot and should focus on studying rather than crying rivers about their lack of access to cheats," He looked Siegfried straight in the eyes.

"As for the Sacred Knights. We will start the upgrade of the first Advanced Sacred Knight Temple. One of our Grandmaster Architects had an epiphany while studying the Sacred Knight Temple's blueprints and was promoted to an Ancient Architect when he found out how to improve the Sacred Knight Temple. Once upgraded, 4-Star Knights called Saints and Ancient Knights of the Silent Goddess will be unlocked. Your Sacred Knights can then advance to 4-Star through hard work and have to work their asses off to purchase some Promotion Globes to – possibly – be promoted to 5-Star. I don't know how much their powers will change at 4-Star or 5-Star, but this is enough to motivate your people, right?"

Siegfried was stunned as it was the first time he heard about the Ancient Architect, his promotion, and the upgrades of the Advanced Sacred Knight Temple. "That sounds great. As long as the improvements of the Sacred Knight Temple work out, nobody will say anything. Even if they do, with some Promotion Globes in the Jungle Shop offered for an acceptable price, everyone will shut their mouths before approaching you. Let's say some idiots approach you…just tell me, and I will take care of it. I don't think Summons can get as many great opportunities to grow stronger and be promoted as in your territory. I have never seen anyone offering that much, at least."

Michael smiled at Siegfried's praise and decided to jump into action right away. He had enough Soultrait Symbols to offer in the Cosmic Shop but he messaged Sylth Thorn first. 'Since I cannot deal with the Supreme Human Alliance personally, I might as well create some more powerhouses to fight the Supreme Human Alliance head-on.'

Sylth messaged Michael often, hoping to obtain more Soultrait Symbols from him. He usually rejected her, but Michael decided to change his approach.

Since he needed both Origin Liquid and Promotion Globes, Michael opened his arms widely, ready to offer multiple Soultrait Symbols and Soultrait Upgrades. Michael didn't make an offer. He only said something simple in his message.

[Michael Fang: Hello, Sylth. I hope you and your family are doing fine. I am offering you Soultraits and Upgrades again. In exchange, you can offer me Origin Liquid and Promotion Globes. Feel free to negotiate with me, but keep in mind that the cosmos will transform into a wild place soon. The Primal and the Gods, both Rebels and submissive, won't treat you nicely. That being said, you need more power to fight the Supreme Human Alliance. I heard some things, and if they're true… You need my Soultraits.]

Maybe it wasn't nice to speak like that to an ally, but Michael wasn't going to behave like the nice guy. Not in a deal like this, at least. He needed something and wanted the best possible offer!

Sylth didn't respond right away, but she didn't leave him hanging for long. Her response was cut but decisive.

[Sylth Thorn: The Thorn Merchandise is willing to buy your Soultrait Symbols. However, we also demand your safety. One of our Elderly Demon Kings told us about a young man with golden eyes golden and silver hair, looking like a Hyuman, being among the Rebels, training the vessel fated to eliminate the Primal. I guess that is you. You will be busy for a while, but if you want our full support and good prices, you need to offer more than your Soultraits.]

Michael shrugged.

[Michael Fang: I cannot promise you anything. My training keeps me away from the cosmos for a while. After that, I can help. If that isn't enough…so be it.]

[Sylth Thorn: The Thorn Merchandise is glad to make business with you!]
