As expected, the impact Ian had on the community was immense.

It was moved to the Best Of Best bulletin board less than half an hour before it was ranked 10th in the Best Of Best bulletin board.

This was a result of Ian's strategic promotion through the guild members at the same time as sprinkling Eucast footage, but not only because of that.

Even if the initial promotion is successful and empowered, if the quality of the content contained in it is not good, it must be buried soon.

Ian's attack, however, was a higher quality attack than any of the summoners he'd ever written.

For the sake of excellent readability, Ian's meticulousness was illuminated by the completion of all his schemes, and he asked his designer, Sojin, to make the final edits.

And in the aftermath of Ian's maneuver, the Summoner's Board was uploading posts at such a rate that every time it refreshed, the page would change.

- Wow, I just read Ian's essay... and there was a reason why summoners showed such absurd growth. Every piece of information that really exists is just information like honey...

There have been a lot of talk, especially about potential, which is now a controversial end to this scheme. In fact, you took screenshots of Ian's summoner Rai's Stats Growth Process and created a formula for each level. Who wants to puke?

- Khh, the hope of real summoners, Ian. Now I can evolve my Ice Golem too...! I was stunned because I didn't evolve to level 70, but the answer was at potential...

- This is not the time for this. Let's go to Lotus Land. From now on, the reservation queue for the Training Hall is full. Maybe we'll be pushed back thousands of times if we're late.

- Huhu, Upper. Slow. Those of you who are playing here are either already on the run to Lotus Territory and have been summoned, or have been put on hold.

You're finally going to Lotus Territory. I'm sorry.I think you'll come back again next year...

- No, but is the training facility currently only in Lotus' territory? Why is everyone going to Lotus?

- Ah, the training facility itself is not just on Lotus' territory. I looked it up, and there was one built in each area. However, the other training facilities have not been activated since they were built, so the facility level is very low.

- Does the efficiency vary greatly depending on the facility level?

Almost the difference between heaven and earth. Earlier on the Summoner's Board, I heard that a 60-year-old wolf evolved with potential 100 in half a day at the Lotus Training Hall. On the other hand, even if you leave it in the General Training Hall all day, it will only increase to a potential of 5.

- Does that make any sense?

- The lower the summoning grade, the easier it is to Enhance.

- Hmmm...

- And in a low-level training camp, you can't train big monsters.

- Ah... My golem and mammoth must go to Lotus Territory.

- Yes, it is.

For summoners who had struggled to capture the 'evolvable’ option and had been eagerly awaiting only the day of evolution, the training camp in Lotus territory with facility level MAX was almost blessed.

Thus, there was no voice to complain, even at a price of 100,000 gold per hour, which was never small.

However, complaints came from elsewhere.

- Wow, isn't this the only way for a Summoner to create a character in the Ruspel Empire?

What am I supposed to do with the Kaimon Imperial Summoners?

- What to do, Kaimon Imperial Summoners, you'll need to level up your facilities by driving a Training Hall from now on. There's no better place to start than the Lotus Training Hall, which is already a facility level MAX, so maybe one day we'll catch up.

- Nono, Upper, you don't know anything. By the time we get out of the Kaimon Empire, which is a facility level MAX, Lotus will be rebuilded into a high-rise building. I take it you haven't seen the man with the MAX level forge post that just now.

- What's that?

- Facility level MAX, facility experience stacks, and it's possible to convert it into a high-level building. In the case of the forge that was posted last time, it was upgraded to the Weapons Lab.

- Aha...?

Since Lotus' guild was part of Ruspel, the territory was also, of course, part of the Ruspel Empire.

So it was impossible for the Kaimon Empire users to use the Lotus Guild's Training Hall unless they took their territory.

So in fact, for novice summoners who are not yet at level 30, they even rebuilt characters, and there were also summoners who went to great lengths to get national-changing items and change nationalities.

And there was one person who was monitoring this series of situations and was smiling proudly.

“Hehe, you're as responsive as I expected. ”

He was Ian, of course.

“If we build a defensive tower like this, we won't need a Guild Vault, will we? ”

Ian was constantly looking at the bulletin boards and chat windows, and picked up his smartphone and called somewhere.

A standard coloring rang out over the smartphone, and a moment later, a thick man's voice was heard.

It was Professor Lee Jin-wook.

“Professor, I think we're going as planned. How's the perimeter holding up? ”

[Haha, how about it. Only the waiting number is full of four digits.]

“No problem? ”

[There is one problem.]

The two eyes of sincerity slightly widened when I said there was a problem.

“What…? ”

[Not enough hands. The remaining guild members of the Northern Territory are helping us... but we don't have a choice.]

In Lee Jin-wook's words, sincerity scratched the back of the head.

That was the part I hadn't thought of.

“Professor, I will be hiring and arranging for talent shortly. I didn't think of that part. ”

[Oh, would you? Thank you, then.]

And Ian brought up the matter of calling Lee Jin-wook.

“Professor, there's actually a reason I called. ”

[Yes, tell me. What?]

“As soon as you have more people, I want you to go to olivers land. ”

[Oh, if it's Oliver territory... You mean that coastal town?]

“Yes, that's right. ”

Professor Lee Jin-wook recognized the intention of Jin-wook's words at once.

[Okay, got it. As soon as we get this sorted out, let's head over to Olives' territory and build a new Training Hall.]

Oliver's territory was like a hidden village on the east coast.

It was a town that didn't even know its existence except for the Lotus guild members because it had been hidden from the outside, but I didn't intend to leave it there forever.

"With a little more land expansion of the Olives' territory, we should be able to secure more land than Lotus'... there should be a large-scale farm." ’

Demand was spiking, so we needed to rapidly increase supply.

Ian clears his mind and opens his mouth slowly.

“Well, thank you very much, professor. Thanks to you, I'm over a big mountain. ”

In Ian's words, Lee Jin-wook smiled and replied.

[Haha, you're always welcome to work hard. I don't know if I should quit professorship anymore.]

At Lee Jin-wook's unexpected joke, Ian looked embarrassed.

“Yes?”

But when I heard the next words, I immediately nodded my head.

[Surprised about what? If I convert Gold only in cash from the Training Hall management fee, I get 10 times my teaching salary. I'm serious about quitting teaching, for one.]

Jinsung, who was speechless for a moment, replied with a serious voice.

“Don't do that, Professor... I have to take a leave of absence... ”

[….]

Huge in one day.) After everything happened, Ian returned to the Node, welcoming the guild members to the level of golden entertainment.

“Hey, that was amazing. How did you come up with that? ”

“I know. I really don't have to worry about money for a while. ”

Ian, who received numerous welcoming greetings, led by Hers and Fioran, began the internal activities of the Node Camp being pushed into the Node Barracks.

Most of the time Herss has done everything, so what Ian needs to do is review his progress and come up with detailed plans later.

‘The only concern now... is that the front lines will come back to our stronghold...' ’

The day after Ian left.

The battle between the Empires ended with the Kaimon Empire's overwhelming power.

The streets Ian had worked so hard to open were restored in one day.

However, Ian could not leave now.

It was because the damage caused by Desert Warriors while Ian was away was so great that when further attacks came, we couldn't stop them without Ian.

Moreover, the defenses of the Nodes were now more important than any other work, since they had started to build both defensive buildings and production buildings with large sums of money.

‘And let's be honest, last time the Kaimon Empire didn't have any more reinforcements... If only a few Desert Warriors or a few top guilds had reinforcements, I wouldn't be able to win on my own.' ’

Ian clears his mind and opens his mouth to Hers, who followed the barracks.

“Yoohyun, I think we should play a little defense game for a while. ”

“Huh? What's that supposed to mean? ”

“The imperial defense line will be pushed to our stronghold in a few days. ”

After hearing Ian's words, Fioran looks embarrassed.

“Oh, really? I heard you're losing all the time... But I heard you're going to join the Splendiferous Guild or the Auckland Guild tomorrow... Won't that make you feel better? ”

Fioran's words made sense.

In the current unilateral backdrop of the Ruspel Empire, Titan guild and DarkLunagil were the forces that began to quickly settle on the central continent and assist the Kaimon Empire forces.

But the problem was, compared to Titan or Darkness, the power of the top guilds in the Ruspel Empire was significantly lower.

Ian shakes his head and replies.

“Of course, it may not be as one-sided as it is now... but it doesn't change the fact that it will be pushed. because it's a lot less power than Oklan or Splinter or Titan or DarkLuna. ”

Hers nodded and agreed.

“Sincerity is right. Plus, if you think a junkie like Samueljin is going to start pushing you, you might just drop him. ”

Samueljin was talking about the guild master of the Auckland Guild.

Fioran asks Ian with a worried expression.

“So what are you going to do, Ian? ”

Then Ian looked at the two of them alternately and opened his mouth.

“From what I can see, it's going to take about 10 days for the defense lines to come down here. It could be a week at the earliest... or a full moon after a long time. ”

The eyes of the guild members in the barracks, including Hers and Fioran, turned to Ian's mouth.

“You've got plenty of resources now, guild members. Let's stop hunting for a week, gather them all, and let's build the walls properly." ”

Fioran doesn't even know she's here.

“Yes?”

Ian said with a bloody smile.

“Let's rob the Guild Vault to get the most out of the workforce, and put a job ad in the community. ”

After understanding Ian's words, Hers opened his mouth with an interesting expression.

“Oh, this is what I call a defence game. ”

Ian nods.

“That's right. Let's play a proper defense game. Even if we push our defenses all the way to our Node, we can stop them all even if we're stranded in the middle of the enemy. ”

But at this point, Ian had no idea that this would become a reality.
