Chapter 74 - First Meeting
Li Xiandao was really engrossed in the book and the figure that appeared behind him didn"t disturb him either. It just looked at him silently.
Only after Li Xiandao fully recorded the Book of War did he notice the figure.
"You are the Book of War?" Li Xiandao asked.
"Yes, I am." The person was a middle-aged man with neatly-combed, black hair. He wore a long robe and looked really solemn. His expression seemed really fierce; he didn"t look like a person who was easy to get close to.
But this was only an outer appearance that didn"t have much to do with how he really was deep down.
The Book of War said, "You are the new owner of the Bank of the Universe?"
Li Xiandao nodded his head.
"The last Master loaned us all out, so can you redeem us all back? How long have you taken over the bank for?" The Book of War asked.
Li Xiandao thought about it and said, "Around a month!"
"Hmm, it is still a really short time, but since you could redeem the depository, it shows that you have done well. At least you are different from the last owner." Book of War didn"t bother to hide his disdain and dislike towards the last owner.
Li Xiandao asked, "Since you gave birth to your own consciousness and are in charge of this giant book empire, can you help me with something?"
The Book of War asked curiously, "What help do you need?"
After all, this was the new owner and he seemed decent, so the Book of War was willing to try to get close.
If he was the same as the last owner, then the Book of War was planning to sleep for another 10,000 years or so.
"Help me train an invincible army." Li Xiandao said as he stared at the Book of War.
The Book of War was the most suitable book for an army to learn from and along with the invincible war formation techniques in it, the army would be unstoppable.
The Book of War asked with a weird expression, "Help you to train an army?"
"Right, help me to train an army." Li Xiandao nodded his head.
"I am very strict when I train an army and normal people can"t take it. Even if they can, if they don"t meet my requirements, then I won"t train them either." The Book of War said proudly.
"I promise that you will be satisfied with this army." Li Xiandao smiled confidently.
"Stop talking so big. What I care most about is talent; their talent can"t be weak. Next is coordination, the mutual connection between one another. Some connections are natural and can"t be trained up." The Book of War said calmly.
Li Xiandao continued to smile confidently, "You won"t find any army more connected than mine."
The Book of War looked towards him with a weird expression, "Stop bragging."
"You will find out whether or not I am bragging when you see them. Let"s go right now." Li Xiandao invited.
"Okay, I want to see if that is really the case or not. If they meet my requirements, I will train them. I will teach them all the strong formations, cultivation techniques, and ancient techniques." The Book of War said.
Li Xiandao led the way out of the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository and the Book of War followed behind him.
They came to the mountain peak where the Time Hall was.
Li Xiandao invited the Book of War to enter, "You will understand once you enter."
Book of War"s main body was a book. He flew in mid-air and an illusionary body floated in front of him. This body was his spirit.
He pushed open the door and felt a flame surge towards it. Under the intense heat of the flames, he looked on in shock.
Mini Flame Kings!
10,000 mini Flame Kings!
They were all lined up. They were of the same size, looked the same, had the same talent, and were all connected to one another...
All these Flame Kings were created from one father and they looked the exact same. As for connections to one another, one didn"t even have to think about it.
The Book of War took one look and was stunned. He hadn"t felt such excitement in a really long time.
"Say no more, I will be their teacher, I will train them into the strongest army in the world. Even the Celestial King will be easily crushed." The Book of War praised them. He had so much love for these 10,000 mini Flame Kings right now.
The potential they had was just too high and he would be in charge of teaching them right from the start.
They wouldn"t need too much training and would become an invincible presence.
Li Xiandao smiled in satisfaction. After he read the contents of the Book of War, he knew right away that it was the most suitable teacher for the mini Flame Kings.
With it, the mini Flame Kings" future was much better than their father.
"From now onwards, you will be their teacher, coach, and mentor. I will hand them over to you." Li Xiandao said seriously.
The Book of War said solemnly, "Give me some time and I will return you an invincible army."
Li Xiandao nodded his head in satisfaction and took in a deep breath, "The most important thing is to have a meeting to discuss their future lives."
The Book of War didn"t understand why Li Xiandao wanted to discuss this, but he didn"t object.
...
The Bank of the Universe"s first meeting!
President: Li Xiandao!
Members: Battle Angel Michael! White Emperor Tian Guangming! Archangel Gabriel! Heaven Heart! Book of War!
These were all the members of the first meeting of the Bank of the Universe.
There was a long table in the Trading Hall. Li Xiandao sat down and said, "The main matter to be discussed today is the Flame Kings."
The other people didn"t say a word and listened quietly.
Book of War frowned, "Is there a problem with them?"
Li Xiandao looked towards Seven.
Seven laughed awkwardly and said, "Everything is alright with them. The only problem is that they eat too much."
Everyone was stunned.
They eat too much?
"10,000 of them consume a million G.o.d Source a day. This is already old data. Now that they have grown up, their rate of consumption has increased to two million a day. The treasures we got from the Ancient Dragon Tomb can only last for half a month." Seven said helplessly.
The Book of War was silent.
He didn"t expect that they would consume so much!
He also knew that Li Xiandao had just taken over and didn"t have many resources, so they had to solve this problem quickly.
Michael and Tian Guangming were shocked. They didn"t expect them to consume so much.
Heaven Heart and Gabriel were taking care of them from the start, so they knew about it. They just kept silent.
"All of you know that we can"t afford them, at least not now, so we have to think of a way." Li Xiandao knocked on the table.
Seven"s eyes shone, "Master, I know a place that can fit them."
Li Xiandao looked at Seven in shock and asked, "What place?"
The others all looked at Seven.
What kind of place would be able to fit 10,000 mini Flame Kings?
