MMORPG : Ancient WORLD

Chapter 483  Brotherly talk

Alex needed to refine his veins to better facilitate mana throughout his body and build his strength to an acceptable level, which, in the case of a normal individual, was having at least three physical attributes reach twice compared to a newly ascended First Rank.

But for Alex, the second requirement was never present because right after the promotion, all his physical attributes had grown past the mark of 500 points, at least three times that of an average peak First Rank individual, and now all his stats were close to the mark of a thousand.

If Alex wanted to, he could have advanced to the second rank weeks ago, but he wanted to build a solid foundation and only advance when he had reached the very limits.

"I will also advance to the First Rank in a few weeks and maybe to the Second Rank before the new event," Andrei said, sharing his own progress.

"As I told you before, don\'t rush your progress because there is no reset in real life," Alex said before standing up and making his way to the shower area.

Andrei followed behind Alex, and the boys entered the shower rooms next to each other, while they kept having random exchanges, ranging from things about life to the matters of the Ancient world.

"Brother, Did you ever fall in love? I mean, have you ever had a girlfriend," Andrei said, his broken and stretched-out words showing her apparent nervousness.

"Crush, yes, I had quite a few, but I never really fell in love,"

"As for a girlfriend, I never had one because I saw them as distractions after seeing my classmates spend hours chatting, and I did not have time for that because of my desire to become a professional athlete, which was my focus for many years,"

"However, having spent quite some time hearing the wisdom of my friends, I know that most females like honest individuals who are confident, have a good sense of humor, and can communicate with them," Alex said with a smile, knowing the big guy had finally realized his feeling for Saahira. "It\'s not that I have someone that I like, but you know the more one knows, the better," Andrei said, saying the first sentence as quickly as he could before giving an explanation, making Alex want to burst out laughing.

"What type of communication can you give a few examples, or maybe get me in connection with one of your friends,"

"It\'s not that I have someone that I like, but you know the more one knows, the better," Andrei said, saying the first sentence as quickly as he could before giving an explanation, making Alex want to burst out laughing.

"As I said, females like someone because of their qualities, and if that individual changes, they will quickly notice."

"While they might appreciate the effort to impress them, it could also become a reason for them to dislike or become annoyed."

"So it\'s best that you stay who you are and be genuine with your feelings," Alex said, giving the best advice he could come up with.

"Hey, what are you talking about," Venedikt\'s voice sounded, making Andrei fake clear his throat out loud before shouting nothing.　   　　 　　　 　　  　 

"Forget about us, Mr. Caveman, you finally have the time to take a break," Alex said, pointing out how Venedikt had left his Vr capsule after close to a month, making it the longest he had stayed in the Ancient world.

"This Caveman was busy selecting players who could get awakened, and I am happy to say that I selected thirty-one promising individuals, making the total reach seventy-eight players," Venedikt said as he entered the shower room to the right of Alex.

"Brother, I really appreciate the work, but I told you that you should take things easy," Alex said, but on the inside, he was smiling ear to ear, knowing without his brother, he would not have time to breathe or the truth about his organization would already be known to the public.

"I can not rest, not after the bombshell of information you have revealed about the Ancestral land," Venedikt stated with a nominal chuckle.

Alex had divulged the info about the upcoming life-changing event hours after he found it himself, and knowing that only awakened individuals could access the realm, he had a conversation with Venedikt, and they both came up with a plan to awaken more members.

While they only needed three players to fill three empty spots, Ravyn and Saahira could not be two of them because they needed trustworthy individuals to manage the organization\'s day-to-day work.

At least one member wanted to stay behind, and it was between Saahira and Venedikt because they were the only two smart and trustworthy enough to manage things. No matter the price, Venedikt needed to come because the decade of time inside the realm would create such an unbridgeable gap that any amount of effort could not once bridge it.

As for why Alex felt Ravyn needed to stay, it was to deal with matters that needed a firm hand, and while his stay was not set in stone, at this point, he was the only option.

So, for the past two months, while Alex utilized time advancing to the Fifth Rank, dealing with matters of the human Continent, and even helping with player selection, Venedikt spent all his time finding promising players, going through the intricate process of finding all their details, and, after multiple stages of checking, selecting a single target.

The selected players were informed about Awakening and its process and either given funds to build a guild house with the training chamber or sent to an already prepared guild house.

Each selected player was informed of the organization\'s relationship with the famous merchant Shiekh, how everything would be under his name, and what their new disguise would be.

Alex was well aware that if a selected player berayed them, it would reveal their relation with Shiekh, but that was exactly what he wanted because once the big powers did their research, they would realize they had nothing.

Because Shiekh owned hundreds of guild houses, yet nothing was directly tied to him, it was either in the name of a guild, a player belonging to a mercenary group, or a lone player directly working for the merchant.

So, finding guild houses belonging to organization members was like looking for a needle in a haystack, and even if they found one, they would have no way of proving that the individual belonged to the organization or worked for Shiekh in some form unless they confessed it themselves.

Everything was developing smoothly, while in the real world, Alex was spending his days roaming the Dragon mainland, waiting for Voragor, the Champion of Wrath, to show himself.

Alex did not plan to battle the raging brute, but instead, he simply planned to kidnap him using his continental teleportation, and the guardian would handle the rest.

While they had taken precautions to ensure Evangeline was not setting them up with the information, it was decided that after locating each target, thorough checking would be done to ensure they were not walking into a trap, and once everything was in order, all three targets would be captured around the same time and brought to the domain.
