Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

```

The world is vast, yet survival reigns supreme.

Unable to ensure an absolutely safe passage, Zi Liyuan could only suppress the urgent thoughts in his heart.

It had been exactly ten days since Wang Fu helped with the recruitment, and the mechanic talents were now mostly in place, so he could visit the military base and take over his family's arms company.

After giving instructions to Fan Yuer and her four sisters and Sikong You, Zi Liyuan stepped onto the teleportation array and directly entered Shen Yurou's estate.

He forcibly pulled Shen Yurou out of her laboratory, and the two teleported out of the Divine Dragon Secret Realm, rushing to the address provided by Uncle Wang Fu.

The destination was a hotel, and upon their arrival, they were immediately guided by staff into a conference room.

At this moment, the conference room was already filled with over a hundred people, old, middle-aged, and young, predominantly young, and except for a very few, all were mechanics by profession.

Zi Liyuan, accompanied by Shen Yurou, strode towards the conference room podium where Uncle Wang Fu was.

"You finally made it, kid. Time is tight, and according to the list you provided, we've temporarily recruited these 112 people. We will continue to recruit more, but it will take longer," said Wang Fu, obviously relieved after seeing Zi Liyuan.

The recruitment was not only to help Zi Liyuan; he had even received directives from the higher-ups to assist with all his might.

Clearly, Zi Liyuan had already caught the attention of the Great Xia Empire's higher echelon. The two sides had even made contact, turning him into a target to be courted.

"Thank you for your help, Uncle Wang Fu. Then I'll take these people to the military base now,"

"No problem. Everyone here has signed a confidentiality agreement. After arriving at the military base, there will be further arrangements,"

The list of recruited talents was provided by the higher echelons of the Great Xia Empire, and the backgrounds of these people have been thoroughly checked for three generations.

Thus, it could be almost certain that there were no issues with these individuals.

However, Zi Liyuan didn't care much about that. The recruited mechanics were simply to work in his family's arms company.

As for whether they would be cultivated as subordinates, that decision was up to Shen Yurou.

Talents would naturally catch their eye, and if they were to be recruited into their ranks later, they would have to sign the Boundary Sea Contract.

Maintaining relationships solely through sentiment or interest would one day deteriorate.

But the Boundary Sea Contract wouldn't, as it was bound by the true force of rules. Violating it would result in backlash from the rules of the Sea of Realms!

Even the great emperors of the four ancient dynasties would face severe consequences, even the risk of downfall, if they violated the Sea of Realms' rules.

That's also why Zi Liyuan was keen on making Boundary Sea Contracts with others.

Uncle Wang Fu's arrangements were impeccable. After meeting with the hundred-plus mechanics and getting to know each other, they all boarded several buses and drove straight to the military base.

At the same time, a more detailed intelligence dossier was transmitted to Zi Liyuan's guide jade plaque.

However, he immediately handed it over to Shen Yurou, instructing her to review it carefully.

Since all these people were mechanics, the intelligence even detailed their innate abilities.

Shen Yurou naturally wanted to see if there was anyone suitable for cultivation, who could assist with her research.

And sure enough, among the talents selected by the empire, some had notable innate attributes, such as an individual with the talent called "Mechanical Research."

This talent had two effects. One was that it could enhance the performance of machinery in use, up to a 20% increase.

The other effect was that it allowed slow decryption of various technologies within machinery, although the speed of decryption was quite slow.

The decrypted technology was just that, technology. It would not be instantly comprehended and accumulated as Shen Yurou could do.

This individual would need to thoroughly understand the technology over time, so his progress in learning was slow, given his lack of foundation and understanding of many technologies.

However, with Shen Yurou's guidance, he could quickly master some fundamental scientific knowledge. Essentially filling in the foundational framework, he could then slowly derive more from it.

There was not just this one talent; several others had potential for cultivation, but Shen Yurou didn't rush to engage with them right away.

Although they were talents screened by the empire, who knows what they were really like. It was better to first test them, to see if their character was worth cultivating.

Influenced by Lord Zi, Xiao Yurou was also prepared to have people sign Boundary Sea Contracts, and this was not a small restriction; not many were willing to sign such a thing.

At the military base, with Zi Liyuan's red book and having sent advance notice, coupled with Liu Guozhong's company, the group was only briefly checked before being allowed to enter.

But the area they could enter was restricted to just the warehouse section of the military base.

With Liu Guozhong leading the way, they quickly arrived at the arms company, a three-story warehouse building.

The first floor was the large warehouse for various materials, the second housed the supersized automated production lines which were already producing equipment, based on several designs previously submitted by Shen Yurou.

The third floor served as the office space for the arms company, and beneath the warehouse, there were underground structures spanning three levels.

The first underground level was also a large warehouse for materials, while the second level housed production workshops, with individual personal production workshops within mini dimensional Secret Realms—there were at least five hundred of them.
