The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

On one hand, I feel sorry for them.

An 18-year-old, if he's an ordinary person who hasn't changed jobs, should be playing basketball and chasing girls on a university campus.

The biggest worry is failing a few subjects in the final exams.

If you're a job changer, you should diligently attend classes and practice your skills at the various professional academies in Sherlock.

Strive for a better life in the future.

But Gu Xu, at eighteen years old, was carrying the safety of the entire Divine Summer on his shoulders and charging forward, unable to stop.

They also have to worry about the foundational issues for them.

On the other hand, it's heartbreaking.

Li Weiguo understood the unspoken meaning in Gu Xu's words.

With its current strength, Sheikha can hardly provide support for this legion commander.

Zhang Daoxuan naturally understood as well, and his eyes even showed a hint of emotion.

Once upon a time, his secretary, Chen Yang, even joked with him...

As a new recruit, we can't just give him a separate position, can we?

Little did anyone expect that, to this day, his words have become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

But despite the hurt, another surge of emotion welled up in both of their hearts, even stronger than the pain itself.

This child's heart is in Sherlock.

He didn't make any grand pronouncements or promises; he simply told you straight up that you can't lose your roots.

Based on that statement, let alone improving their strength, I wouldn't hesitate to send them to the front lines to carry guns right now.

"Of course...it's about resources."

Gu Xu then spoke up again: "The two ministers don't really need to worry."

"What do you mean?" Li Weiguo raised an eyebrow.

"What I mean is, you don't need to worry about how to get the advancement resources for everyone. Just leave it to me and the Calamity Army."

At this point, Gu Xu held up one finger: "I only need the two leaders to do one thing: compile a list of the needs of each legion and defense zone, who is lacking what kind of advancement materials, how much they are lacking, and which secret realm can produce the corresponding materials, and give it to me, that's all."

"I'll take care of the rest."

Then, he paused for a moment and added a sentence.

"Of course, before that, you need to help me set up the Calamity Army. I don't have a single soldier under my command right now, I'm just a lone commander. I can't keep going through dungeons by myself every time, can I?"

That's a very understated statement.

But after listening, Li Weiguo and Zhang Daoxuan exchanged a glance.

Neither of them responded immediately.

It's not that I don't want to accept it.

We need to slow down.

Because the amount of information in Gu Xu's words was much greater than he had imagined.

What do you mean by "you just make the list and I'll take care of the rest"?

In other words, he monopolized the advancement resources for thousands of high-level professionals throughout the entire Divine Xia Empire, from top to bottom, from quasi-saints to demigods.

What does this mean?

This means he is confident and capable of acquiring a massive amount of high-level materials from various secret realms in a short period of time.

But what are the prerequisites for doing this?

He must possess the absolute strength to crush all the guardians in those secret realms.

Considering his record of killing three Origin-level enemies tonight, his confidence is not without reason.

Even so, the impact of these words coming from an 18-year-old is still immense.

Li Weiguo let out a long sigh of relief: "Alright, since you're confident about the resources, I won't say anything more."

He looked at Zhang Daoxuan: "Old Zhang, you take the lead on the statistics."

Zhang Daoxuan naturally had no objection: "No problem, Commander Gu. Within a day, I will compile all the advancement requirements of registered high-level professionals and the corresponding material production secret realms, categorize them, and send them to you."

"As for the replenishment of the Calamity Army's troops."

"Each legion should select its elite troops, and all should be in place within three days."

"However...do you have specific requirements regarding the number of people and the number of positions?"

Gu Xu thought for a moment, then held up one finger, his tone carrying the air of a boss recruiting: "I don't have too many requirements for the number of people, but one thing is that the quality has to be high."

"Those who are at the seventh rank or above must have experience leading troops in secret realm battles. There are no restrictions on the type of profession; warriors, mages, and assassins are all acceptable, but they must be able to fight tough battles."

"Oh...right! One more thing, you need to have a strong mentality."

"After all, the summoned creatures under my command are somewhat... unconventional in appearance. If a greenhorn were to come and faint from being scared by his own people before even fighting the enemy, that would be incredibly embarrassing."

Zhang Daoxuan's lips twitched as he thought of Gu Xu's summoned creature.

Yes, that's true.

If he were an ordinary soldier, and suddenly turned around on the battlefield at night to see his own legion commander's summoned creatures, he would most likely die on the spot.

It's not scary to die on the battlefield, but it's scary to be frightened to death by your own friendly forces before you even get to the battlefield.

That would be a real disaster.

"Mental fortitude is easy to deal with."

Zhang Daoxuan rarely showed a smile: "The military has a special psychological screening mechanism. I will have someone add conditions, and the fear resistance level must be no lower than A level."

"That's fine then."

Gu Xu nodded: "Then... Boss, when can you fill the positions for me?"

"The first batch of personnel will arrive within three days."

Zhang Daoxuan pondered for a moment, then gave a clear timeframe: "In terms of organization, I will first proceed with the configuration of two standard combat legions, and then add more as needed."

"That's enough, let's set up the frame first."

Gu Xu leaned back in his chair, finally feeling a sense of relief.

To be honest, this was the problem that bothered him the most before.

The Calamity Army has been given a designation, and a legion commander has been appointed.

But he had nothing at all.

Although with his current strength, he really doesn't need anyone's help in fighting.

But with so many secret realms, how long would it take him to farm them all by himself?

You can't expect a legion commander to do manual labor every day, can you?

That's too shabby.

The key point is, isn't that embarrassing?

With the conversation reaching this point, the tense atmosphere in the office, which had been on the verge of breaking down, finally eased a bit.

As a result, Li Weiguo and Zhang Daoxuan's sitting posture changed from being upright to leaning back slightly.

It can be considered a switch from "wartime state" to "normal meeting mode".

"To be honest... if Commander Gu hadn't told me this today, we really wouldn't have known that there could be something in this world that makes us feel so powerless."

"But thankfully, none of that has happened yet!"

"We still have time to prepare."

"yes!"

Zhang Daoxuan picked up where Li Weiguo left off: "However, gentlemen, I would like to add one more thing about this matter."

"Actually... even if we use all the available resources of Sheikha to the fullest extent, given the level of threat that Commander Gu just mentioned, it probably still wouldn't be enough for us alone."

"In other words, compared to us Sherlock Holmes fighting alone!"

"Why don't we unite all forces and fight against this impending catastrophe together?"
