Chapter 2498  Generous Gift 

"The Blue Field?" Minos exclaimed as he remembered the location.

The Blue Field was an extreme place far from Examire, where the guild mined a special type of material.

The place was harsh, and those who were sent there after failing one of the stages of the guild's entrance exam would definitely have a hard time.

However, such a region was not the end of the world. Someone with determination had a good chance of overcoming their difficulties and eventually getting a place in Armhands, and then leaving their servant status behind to become a Recruit.

However, in The Blue Field, there weren't only guild servants, but also cultivators who couldn't pass the entrance exam to join the army. As a post of Armhands, there were high-ranking members there.

Segiel explained, "Yes, since it is very difficult for them to stay in the factions and they need a lot of merit points to pay for their cultivation expenses, they usually do the most tough missions that no one wants to do.

The mission to stay at The Blue Field Post pays over 100,000 merit points per month, so they are there all the time doing that mission.

Only when an internal guild member desperate for merit points signs up to take their position will they return to the headquarters for a while. Even then, since no one wants to stay there for long, they always end up returning to The Blue Field."

Within the guild, there were many missions that paid absurdly well. Usually, these were missions that put guild members in great danger, or had extreme conditions that would prevent them from cultivating, or even keep them isolated for a long time.

Most didn't want to do those kinds of missions, so the guild paid a lot to encourage those who were desperate for merit points, like Wovar and Clexvog, the giant Intermediate Officers Segiel recommended to Minos.

"If you want both of them in your group, all you have to do is pay their expenses of about 200,000 merit points a month to make them work for you." She smiled as she said this, knowing this was a high cost.

Even the Elders of the council would avoid spending that much and would think twice before making such a commitment!

"This is impressive." Ruth commented as she looked at Minos. "Can we really sustain this level of spending? For that matter, is it really worth the investment?"

Minos couldn't be sure, but Sender had a better idea than he did. "Is it worth it in the long run? Well, if you have a recipe of increasing merit points and high possibilities, it definitely is. Even though the two giants are only level 112 Sovereigns, each of them is stronger than me. Because of their massive and extremely powerful bodies, they are practically immortal at the 11th stage. Only a Supreme can kill them.

However, if you don't have a growing income or even the desire to fight for the highest positions in the guild, this investment might not be worth it. Hiring the two giants for a temporary mission would be more worthwhile."

In Sender's opinion, if it meant spending 200,000 merit points a month, it would be better to find other allies within the guild. But he had no doubt that Wovar and Clexvog would return the favor if they had to fight.

Sender couldn't say what would happen if Artaud fought those two giants and the rest of Minos' party. But this level 113 Sovereign's chances would definitely be much better if the two giants were on his side.

"I'm not worried about the merit points. The problem with all of this is getting those two to our side in time." Minos said in response to his wife's question.

"Looks like you're really rich. The rumors that you've found a great treasure are not unfounded." Sediel commented with an interested look on her face. Minos said to her without paying much attention to her comment. "Everyone who puts themselves in danger either dies or gets rich. There's no other choice in the whole universe. I'm still here, so you can imagine that I have all the riches my enemies left behind."

"Oh? So that's it. Actually, you're right. Someone like you has definitely fought a lot." Sediel narrowed his eyes, feeling this was true, but it wasn't the whole truth about Minos.

'That still doesn't explain the advances of your companions.' She thought as she looked at Ruth.

But she was only curious about Minos and had no intention of getting involved with him in a negative way.

"If you want the two giants on your side, hurry. The two of them will finish their month in The Blue Field in ten days. After that, once they renew their mission, they won't be able to return for several weeks."

"Thank you for your advice and help." Minos made a gesture of thanks before getting up to leave.

"Officer Sediel will not be joining my faction, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends. Please accept this gift from me," he said as he offered her the absorbable artifact he had given her earlier.

Sender's eyes widened, while Sediel became more serious. She asked, "Are you sure? This is a precious artifact. I advised you for my own reasons. You don't have to give it to me." "Please accept this gesture of gratitude." Minos insisted as he bowed his head.

Just because she didn't join his faction didn't mean she couldn't be an ally!

As Sender had told him and Ruth earlier, having someone like Sediel on one's side was something valuable, something that could bring unlimited results, depending on how things developed.

Sediel accepted Minos' gift at the human's urging, before inviting him to dinner once things had settled down for him.

He agreed to join her for dinner, where they could discuss less formal matters.

He didn't hesitate to order his wife to run to her fellow faction members who had been in the guild the longest.

Ruth went to Rhett, while Minos stayed behind with Sender, going to other meetings he thought worthwhile in case he couldn't get the two giants to join his group in time.
