Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

Chapter 270: Recruitment Drive

( Leo and Ben’s POV )

Leo and Ben scoured the StrongHaven market to look for ingredients that could help them make their signature products, however, despite trying their best, they couldn’t buy some special herbs that only grew on Mount Faulkner.

On the plus side, they found all the ingredients to construct the various poison recipes that Lin Mu shared with them. However, on the downside they couldn’t find the herbs whose powder Ben mixed with their smoke bombs to make the smoke thick and black.

This meant that of all the different products that Leo had hoped to present in front of Shane, there were some items that he would be unable to present because of material constraints, which was a huge setback for him.

“What the hell is this poison recipe? The juice of mulberry plant is a blood thinner, while the juice of huckleberry plant works as a blood coagulant.

Who the fuck mixes these two ingredients together along with frog venom?” Ben complained as he read the poison recipes of the night guild and found their signature poisons to be crafted by some retard.

“Are these poison recipes even legit? Why do I feel like the night guild mixed a bunch of random ingredients together and just hoped that it turned into something deadly….” Leo wondered, as he looked at the poison recipes that he was brewing and scratched his head too.

However, while the brewing method and the ingredients list of these poisons was suspicious, its end results were undeniable as a single drop of poison from most of night guild’s poison recipes was potent enough to kill 10 adult men.

“Let’s worry about the recipes later, master, if we can brew it and the market demands it, let’s just focus on selling it and hope for the best” Leo said, as Ben shrugged his shoulders and got back to work on completing the sample set.

Trying to be professional, Leo noted the time taken to brew each batch of poison, the cost of ingredients used and the scope for scalability.

Uptil now, he had not done any market research to understand which poison could be mass produced and be used as a disruptive alternative in the current poisons market as a cheaper and more effective solution to traditional poisons, which was why he noted all the data and was hoping that his meeting with Shane would give him more clarity as to which of his products was a hit and which were practically useless.

There were a total of 13 unique poison recipes that he and Ben brewed for their presentation, with each having a varying cost and varying degree of lethality.

While the weakest poison on the list could cause a temporary mild paralysis effect or be used as a painkiller when diluted even further, the strongest could kill 500 men with a 10mg dose and was one of the most lethal poisons around.

“13 poisons, one medicinal bath formula, one smoke bombs production method and 4 different hallucinogenic drugs” Leo said, as he inspected the final list of products that he was going to present to Shane and nodded his head in satisfaction when all of them were brewed and ready to present.

( Meanwhile, The DarkSky Guild )

[ Global Notice :- This is a global recruitment notice issued by the DarkSky Guild to inform players Empire wide that the DarkSky Guild is now recruiting new guild members.

As the only State Recognised Guild in the game, the DarkSky guild is a territory administrator in the western duchy and will soon take part in large scale hidden events only accessible to official organizations.

For ambitious players wanting to take advantage of every opportunity available, the guild offers you all a chance to cut through the crowd and become one of the most Elite players in the game.

For now, the guild is only willing to recruit 10,000 new members, with admissions taken on a first come first serve, as well as management discretion basis.

All members of the guild will be given guild robes upon joining and 2 merit points as the first month’s stipend, which is exchangeable as 2 gold coins from the guild inventory.

For admissions, contact the guild office in StrongHaven City ]

As soon as the DarkSky guild made this post on the global forums, a frenzy of players rushed to their guild headquarters in StrongHaven City, as ever since the guild was first created, there had been hundreds who desperately wanted to join it.

While the tag of ‘State Acknowledged Guild’ itself was a big deal, the performance of the guild members in the Grand Tournament only elevated the image of the DarkSky Guild for the masses.

Not only because of Cervantez and Luke, who made it to the semi-finals and finals of the Grand Tournament, even the other guild members like Lysa and Tor fought extremely well in the Grand Tournament which helped elevate the guild image.

Overall, because of the limited nature of their recruitment slots and the fact that the guild gave all members guild robes and a stipend upon joining, which was not standard practice in the game so far, the desire in the hearts of common players to join the guild only increased, as a long line formed in front of the guild headquarters, with the queue to give an interview getting over 8 hours long.

As per Cervantez’s instructions, all potential candidates who wanted to join the guild were bifurcated by their class and their interviews were conducted by core guild members that were going to be their corps leaders in the future.

Lysa interviewed the mages, Tor interviewed the Berserkers, Luke interviewed the knight’s and paladins and so on.

Overall, Cervantez overlooked all operations and was constantly on the lookout for some special players to whom he granted immediate entry in the guild, if he recognised them from his previous life.
