Then Kneel

Li Yao was a little confused at the moment, so he replied, "Wait a minute, it's a bit messy, let me sort it out."

He hung up the phone and started thinking about it...

first,

They encountered an attack on their way to the Dacians Club today. It was an attack by the Pro-American Faction faction of the Full Sky Star Society against the Old Guard Faction and Aristocratic Faction —though, in reality, it was the Church Knights Templar who carried out the attack. The Church Knights Templar is a force under the American Federation. Department of Homeland Defense and Counterattack Security.

This is easy to understand.

But what does this have to do with the Schutzstaffel's activities in Romania? Why were Xisen and his men sent to attack Pro-American Faction strongholds in Romania? There are several possibilities.

first,

The Schutzstaffel, originating from Germany, harbored deep resentment towards forces affiliated with the American Federation. This was because, had the American Federation not profited from both sides and ultimately intervened to occupy the country, Europe might have truly fallen. Furthermore, the American Federation plundered Germany's science, technology, and extraordinary heritage extensively after the war.

—The "Alsos Project" from back then is already widely known.

Secondly

Their aim was to escalate the conflict between the Pro-American Faction and Aristocratic Faction through this attack, dragging the forces behind both factions into the fray! Then they could take advantage of the chaos!

Um...

These two reasons are generally sufficient.

However, the Schutzstaffel probably did not expect that Xisen and others had already been persuaded by Li Yao and had voluntarily joined their side.

Since that's the case,

Li Yao could easily use someone else to do his dirty work!

After the Schutzstaffel attack, have Ginawell and her team release the news, inciting a fierce battle between the Pro-American Faction and the Schutzstaffel forces! Once both sides are exhausted, let Ginawell and her team reap the benefits! Perfect!

Having made up his mind, Li Yao told Ginawell and the others about the situation reported by Xisen. After listening, Ginawell exclaimed in amazement, "As expected of the president! He has only been here alone for a short time and has already recruited a group of superhumans!"

There are twelve in total!

Each one is at least at the advanced level of Tier 3!

Wow, that's impressive! Li Yao was so embarrassed by the praise that he waved his hand and said, "Keep it down, keep it down!"

Lothar: "..."

My dear girl! Are you focusing on the wrong thing?

How did you become the president's brainwashed fan?!

Li Yao then picked up his phone and called Xisen back, "You can go! By the way, did they tell you when to make your move?"

Xisen: "The unification will be held tomorrow. The specific time has not been set."

Li Yao nodded. It seemed the Schutzstaffel was making quite a move this time...

He added, "Wait for me to get back so I can pack some equipment for you."

Now that Xisen and his gang are all following Boss Li, they're getting as much equipment as they can to increase their combat power and self-defense capabilities.

After hanging up the phone,

Li Yao then turned to Ginawell and said, "There will be some movement in Bucharest tomorrow. Wait until things get chaotic before you make a strong statement! Let the war spread to the Pro-American Faction and the Schutzstaffel."

Ginawell: "Leave it to me!"

After meeting with Ginawell, Li Yao and Selma returned to the neighborhood behind Magheru Avenue.

When he got back, he ran into Jiang Da Jin playing mahjong with Xisen and the others...

Li Yao, seeing this, asked in surprise, "You guys actually know how to play mahjong?"

Xisen shrugged. "It's all thanks to Da Jin."

Sitting at the table, Xisen felt that his current life was strange... but strangely enough, he didn't seem to be so opposed to it.

There isn't so much hostility or bloodshed in life.

In a short time,

He even started to like this peaceful life... He was a little puzzled as to why he had suddenly become so laid-back.

Li Yao, oblivious to Xisen's subtle psychological shift, instead asked Jiang Da Jin with surprising astonishment, "Wow! How did you teach that?"

In Li Yao's impression, these Westerners always had a mysterious misunderstanding of Chinese culture.

Otherwise, no foreigner would have tattooed the words "Fish-flavored Tofu" on their body...

Jiang Da Jin slammed down a card. "Pong!"

Then he chuckled and said, "What's this called? It's mahjong. Lots of top students online have mahjong."

"Hey!"

While explaining, Jiang Da Jin happily pushed his cards forward, exclaiming, "Dude, I won!"

Li Yao: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Jiang Da Jin stood up and quickly collected the money, while Xisen and the others silently took out their money...

Although they knew the rules, mahjong still requires a lot of skill and intelligence. Jiang Da Jin dragging Xisen and the others to play mahjong was just bullying them! Li Yao then called Xisen and the others over and asked, "Last time I noticed you didn't have any suitable weapons? I'll provide you with equipment support for this operation. Bring your usual weapons and I'll fix them for you."

Xisen was overjoyed. "Really?"

He rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Actually, we all used to have our own weapons, but we had to hand them over when we were expelled from the family."

Later, Xisen and his team also looked for alternatives...

The spiritual weapons with excellent performance that can be circulated outside are too expensive. Although they are not poor, their daily expenses are not small. For example, there are some potions, spiritual energy crystals for cultivation, and the cost of purchasing information. Those spiritual weapons that cost millions are simply unaffordable.

As for those they can afford, they don't like them...

After all, they all come from ancient powers, so they have good eyesight and knowledge.

Rather than making do with ordinary weapons, it's better to save up money and get a high-performance, handy spiritual weapon.

After listening to Xisen and the others' account, Li Yao nodded. "Okay, bring me the weapon design you like, and I'll enhance its Spirit Energy performance for you."

Xisen: "Okay!"

The weapon's shape is relatively easy to obtain; they are usually made of special alloys. The more troublesome part is improving its Spirit Energy performance, which is also the key to determining the quality of a spiritual weapon.

There are many corresponding methods in Europe. For example, some technically skilled individuals under the Holy See infuse their powers with the power of faith; some who are adept at witchcraft seal certain special energies within their weapons; and some more modern organizations create psionic matrices within their weapons...

Their new leader comes from the East, and Xisen has long heard of the amazing skills there! Perhaps they can obtain even better weapons? As for the types of weapons they each have, Xisen and his men have already prepared them... What's a weapon bought on the spot compared to a custom-made one?

Therefore, Xisen and his group hoped to customize their own weapons. The semi-finished products had been prepared long ago, but they had never had the money or the opportunity to find a master Weapon Refinement to upgrade them.

Now that Li Yao mentioned it, they took out the semi-finished weapons they had been saving for a long time.

Without saying a word, Li Yao carried the pile of unfinished weapons back to his room.

Among these weapons,

Xisen's weapon was a one-handed sword, Garrett's was a Punch Dagger shaped like a Wolverine's claw, and Nightspawn's was a jet-black scimitar... The materials used for these weapons were all quite good, showing that Xisen and his team had put their hearts into them.

The advantage of having a good foundation is that Li Yao can perform a variety of enchantments.

In terms of enchantment types,

Li Yao chose "Basic Solidity", "Basic Sharpness", and "Basic Magic Resistance"...

Although these three effects are all basic, they are classic and easy to use.

That's enough for Xisen and the others.

certainly,

Li Yao didn't add any other special effects mainly because he was afraid of the hassle, after all, there were more than a dozen weapons!

Next comes the batch preparation of Magic Potion for soaking and refining, followed by etching magical patterns and filling them with specially formulated psionic gold powder. Finally, Magic Potion are used to draw array patterns, and once everything is ready, enchanting takes place on the alchemy table... As the power of the Magic Potion, under the control of magic, merges into the etched magical patterns, the interconnected psionic energy cycle begins to operate...

This enchanted weapon is now complete!

After all twelve pieces of equipment were made, most of the night had already passed!

Although Li Yao was already very familiar with the process of enchanting weapons, it was still something that required complete concentration, so it took a lot of mental effort for Li Yao.

After completing the last piece of equipment

After restoring his mental energy reserves through meditation, Li Yao luxuriously gave himself a vacation.

I had a wonderful sleep.

The next day, Li Yao tossed a pile of equipment to Xisen and the others. "Come on, take a look!"

Xisen and the others picked up their respective weapons and examined them closely. Compared to the previous unfinished products, these weapons now felt more profound and restrained in their senses. They could feel the spiritual energy surging within them as soon as they held them in their hands! Not bad!

Xisen picked up his one-handed sword and infused it with power, and fine dark golden magic runes immediately appeared on the sword!

This magic pattern uses a composite interlocking technique, and is enhanced with "demon-breaking" and "sharp" effects.

One targets psionic attacks, the other targets physical destruction.

Beneath these dark gold patterns, a deeper, iron-black energy surges... that's the added "Sturdiness" effect.

It can increase the durability of weapons.

The vampire Xisen and the werewolf Garrett wielded their newly acquired weapons with great delight.

Li Yao then said to the Black Witch and others who focused on spellcasting, "The special effects on your wands are the same as those on melee weapons. Attacks activated by using the wands will also receive a corresponding amplification, but the effect will be weakened."

As for the "sturdy" effect...

If necessary, you can also learn from the staff-wielding mage and swing your wand at people! In the Main World, battle mages' staves often have a similar effect...

Li Yao was still feeling a bit tired, so he sat down on the sofa and looked at Xisen and the others, who were all testing their newly acquired weapons.

Because the designs are custom-made, they are all very handy.

After the special effects were added, they felt their combat power had been greatly enhanced! At least by one level!

Li Yao looked up at Xisen and the others and said, "As the saying goes, 'A skilled craftsman must first sharpen his tools'... Can you sit down and listen to me first?"

Xisen and the others shook their heads and said, "Now we follow you and are your subordinates. We will just stand here and follow the proper order of seniority!"

He spoke with such seriousness that even the werewolf Garrett and his men seemed to agree wholeheartedly...

Li Yao thought for a moment and then said, "Then you can kneel down, my neck is tired."

Xisen: "???"

Garrett: "???"

Aren't the rules this strict here?!

Ah?!

Even when we're in the clan, our earl-level elders don't give us this much of a lecture, boss! Xisen and the others are starting to get a headache...

This person is great in every way, except for their thought process... which is a bit off?

Meeting Li Yao's gaze, he and Garrett sat down awkwardly. "Hehe, well, let's just sit down."

The floor was strangely hard.

Li Yao didn't mind, and once his neck finally felt a bit better, he instructed, "I only have one request for you!"

Xisen and the others immediately straightened their backs. "Please speak!"

Li Yao: "All of you, come back alive and well!"

Xisen and others. "..."

They never expected Li Yao to make such a request, so they were stunned...

In terms of ownership,

Vampires and werewolves belong to the dark forces of Europe, the kind that cannot be seen in the light of day. They are suppressed by supernatural societies or the Holy See, and their clans are subject to strict class-based and oppressive policies.

After they were expelled for their ambition to achieve great things, they lived a life of constant danger, dancing with death.

They never imagined that one day someone would say to them, "I only have one request for you—come back alive and well!"

true,

This is a bit unexpected.

Xisen snapped out of his daze, a hint of belonging creeping into his smile, "Don't worry! The Bloodhand Brotherhood still very strong in this area!"

Li Yao nodded. It's just that the name Bloodhand Brotherhood... isn't very good.

He thought for a moment and asked, "How about you change your name?"

Xisen was taken aback. After being expelled from the vampire ranks, even the name of the guild was going to be lost? But he still asked sullenly, "Then what do you suggest we call it?"

Li Yao thought for a moment. The main members of the Full Sky Star Society were mostly humans, and it lacked special sanctioning agencies for internal and external purposes. For example, the Wallfacer Organization had the "Sword Holder" system, Kassel College had the "Dragon Slayer" system, and even the American Federation. Department of Homeland Defense and Counterattack Security had a special "Avengers" organization.

Therefore, Li Yao also wanted to add a similar organizational structure to the Baby's Breath.

After a while,

His gaze fell on the Red Gloves worn by Xisen and the others—the unifying symbol of their small group and the origin of the name Bloodhand Brotherhood.

Li Yao simply made the decision. "From now on, you shall be called Red Gloves!"

Xisen and others. "???"

Red Gloves...

What kind of weird name is this?!

It's not impressive or imposing at all! But they don't dare to object.

After all, he had just received a benefit from this big shot... These dozen or so weapons could easily fetch over a hundred million on the market! "Then, let's go with the Red Gloves."

After the matter was settled, Xisen and the others took out the prepared silver long box, put the weapons in it, and then carried it in their hands.

Now,

They were all dressed in flowing black, fitted trench coats with high collars, wide-brimmed hats, and striking Red Gloves over their long sleeves... At first glance, they actually looked quite convincing!

Stylish!

Xisen pressed his hat down and bowed slightly to Li Yao: "Well then, let's set off."

Li Yao nodded. "Go early and come back early."

Li Yao then watched them leave, as if a group of musicians were going to a grand feast of slaughter.
