The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3054 Our joining is a double insurance for you!

"So, whether I agree or not, you will fight the demons with all your might and fulfill your duty as a warrior. But if I agree, wouldn't my Great Wilderness Palace be accused of colluding with the Immortal Realm?"

The palace master sized up Lin Chen, speaking calmly, as if he didn't want to get involved in any trouble.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "There are so many humans in the Great Wilderness Palace. Having one more team won't be a big problem. We can be troops from the Immortal Realm or native Wilderness people."

"Fifteen hundred people is just a small number. If you don't say anything and I don't say anything, who will know that I come from the Celestial Realm?"

The Palace Master stared at Lin Chen: "Fifteen hundred men, breaking through four outposts in succession with virtually no casualties. Is this the level of combat power of your Immortal Realm legions?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "That's not true. My team includes several key members from forces I have good relationships with, and these forces are all top-tier in the Immortal Realm."

The Palace Master's tone was subtle: "I see. I was wondering how the demon army could break through the defenses and advance thousands of miles if an ordinary thousand-man squad had this strength."

Lin Chen calmly said, "If it weren't for the Little Demon Emperor Cheng Tuo's intervention, it might not have been the Immortal Realm's defenses that collapsed, but the Demon Realm's defenses."

The Palace Master said coldly, "Are you immortal saints not going to make a move? Are you just going to stand by and watch?"

Lin Chen spread his hands: "I have the same question, but I'm just a lowly soldier. I don't know who to ask. The Palace Master is of noble status and should know much more than I do. I wonder if you could answer my question?"

The palace master was silent for a few seconds: "If I knew, why would I need to ask you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Alright, let the sages handle their own affairs. I just need to take care of myself. Palace Master, whether you accept us or not, you have to give me a clear answer."

The palace master fell silent again, clearly pondering the pros and cons.

Lin Chen wasn't in a hurry. He stood in the middle of the hall and waited quietly.

About a minute later, the Palace Master's voice rang out again: "You joined my Great Wilderness Palace only to seek refuge. Once you have the opportunity, you will naturally leave and return to the Immortal Realm. When you leave, you will leave us with all the trouble."

Lin Chen nodded and answered frankly, "If we have the chance to return to the Immortal Realm, we will definitely go back. After all, that is our hometown, and it is too dangerous to stay here, as we are surrounded by enemies at every turn."

"However, this time the passage between immortals and demons is permanently secured, and the war has progressed to this point. The demon realm and the immortal realm will inevitably determine a victor. It will definitely not be like before, where the fighting stops and starts and then ends."

"Although the Great Wilderness Palace has not yet joined this war, it cannot escape it. Sooner or later, it will have to make a choice. Our arrival may be a double insurance opportunity for the Great Wilderness Palace."

Lin Chen didn't explain it completely, but the Palace Master clearly understood.

If the Demon Clan wins a great victory, the Great Wilderness Palace might be able to maintain its current state, and even gain more territory due to the expansion of the Spirit Land. But what if the Immortal Realm wins a great victory?

Even if the Immortal Realm wins a great victory, it may not be able to tolerate the Great Wilderness Palace. However, if the Great Wilderness Palace accepts the Immortal Realm's army in advance and cooperates with them to some extent, then even if the Immortal Realm's army approaches in the future, there will at least be a way to negotiate.

"Look, we and the Demon God Temple have always been enemies, and we even sheltered and protected your War God's Palace army and cooperated with them. This shows that we are on the same side, and we are not enemies..."

Having a stepping stone to prove they are friends, not enemies, coupled with the deterrent power of the Great Wilderness Sage, it's not impossible for the Great Wilderness Palace to divide the land and govern itself.

The Palace Master asked, "Do you think the final victor will be the Immortal Realm?" Lin Chen smiled and said, "If the Sages cannot settle the score cleanly, this battle will continue for a long time. No one dares to say who the victor will be. But as things stand now, whether the final victor is the Immortal Realm or the Demon Realm, it will only benefit the Great Wilderness Palace, and there will be no harm!"

The palace master fell silent once again, but this time, Lin Chen did not have to wait long.

"I can accept you, but I have a few requirements."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "Palace Master, please speak."

The Palace Master calmly said, "After you join, you cannot refer to yourselves as the Immortal Realm Army. You are just one of the many armies we have cultivated in obscurity. You are the descendants of the eighteen ancestors of the human race."

Lin Chen agreed without hesitation: "No problem. By joining the Great Wilderness Palace, we will naturally become part of the Wilderness People. It's perfectly fine to say that we are descendants of the Eighteen Ancestors."

The Palace Master nodded: "Don't you have a magic weapon that can hold many people and also isolate you from tracking? I have a mission that I hope you can help me complete. With the strength of your team, it might be a little difficult to hide your whereabouts, but it shouldn't be a problem."

Lin Chen asked directly, "Could the Palace Master elaborate?"

The palace master replied, "I need an item that is hidden within a powerful force and is heavily guarded. Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult to obtain."

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "I can give it my all, but I can't guarantee success. My primary concern when carrying out any operation is the safety of my team members."

"Before deciding to come to the Great Wilderness Palace, I even considered that our group of 1,500 people could find a remote and deserted place, become kings of the mountains, and live in seclusion until the war between immortals and demons was over before emerging again. But after thinking about it, I felt that I should do my part, which is why I am standing here now."

The palace master nodded: "Alright, just do your best, success or failure is up to fate."

Lin Chen readily nodded: "No problem, is there anything else?"

The Palace Master said in a deep voice, "One last thing: now that you have entered the Great Wilderness Palace, if there is a battle in the Great Wilderness Palace, you must also go to the battlefield. You can't just hide in the Great Wilderness Palace and waste your days."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "If we were just here to coast along, we wouldn't have come to the Great Wilderness Palace. We attacked four outposts directly before, which is enough to prove our sincerity."

The Palace Master nodded: "Good, welcome to the Great Wilderness Palace. From today onwards, you will form your own camp called Dawn, and you will directly obey my orders."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He was unwilling for the three squads to be directly incorporated into the main combat battalion of the Great Wilderness Palace. If they were in the military camp, anyone could order them around. If there was a commander who targeted them and the human race, wouldn't the three squads be completely destroyed?

Even the most bulletproof vest can't withstand a barrage of bullets from a submachine gun.

Finally, the palace master asked, "Do you have any requests or anything to say?"

Lin Chen thought for a moment and said, "I need to take some time to visit the Eighteen Ancestors in the ancestral land of the human race."

"can."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Also, those guys from the mercenary association from before, they'll probably have to be locked up..."
