Civilian Staff

"What an alert little fellow. I've had my eye on you for a long time. Are you interested in joining our family as an outsider member?"

Although Xu Yue had spoken within the temporary team, his move to stop the two of them had not escaped Nathaniel's notice. A meaningful smile appeared on his haughty face.

The moment those words were spoken, the other survivors were all startled. Even Banbu and Lange were quite taken aback.

The Rothschild Family had plenty of lackeys working for them, and even quite a few high-ranking lackeys, but they kept a very tight grip on the Family's core members. In the past, they had not even intermarried with outsiders!

Only after they had grown to such a scale that their core members were truly becoming insufficient had they begun using women from within the Family to recruit outsider members, gradually giving rise to "outsider members."

The benefits enjoyed by members of their own Family far exceeded even those of core members in other major legions. It could be said that, unless someone's contract imposed the strictest restrictions, almost anyone would be willing to exploit loopholes and pay the price to break an ordinary contract for such an offer.

Yet Nathaniel had made such an offer right in front of everyone. It showed just how highly he regarded this tactical analyst with such immense potential.

Especially in a crisis like this.

There was absolutely no reason to refuse!

"I'm sorry, but I have no interest in joining a foreign legion.
