The Martial Unity



This was Rui's biggest problem, he could not avoid walking into a trap that he had just learned of, that would make Chairman Deacon too suspicious. Rui did not think this man was not smart enough to come to the conclusion that a potential intelligence leak had occurred through the Martial Squires.

| In which case he could not possibly afford to make such a mistake. Such a mistake would only increase the probability that he would suffer tremendously.

That meant that he needed to harvest esoteric mineral and organic esoteric resources with Kane while still partaking in this operation as a Voidhunter.

('This is going to be rough,') Rui grimaced inwardly.

He could make his life easier by not being part of the same operation, but he didn't want to forsake an opportunity to get closer to the investigation.

"What exactly is the strategy by which you hope to catch the Voider?" Rui asked. "You've only outlined a vague plan."

"That is true," Chairman Deacon did not deny this. "However, the issue is that none of you have signed the contract yet. I do not wish to go too deep into the plan before ironing that part out."

That was quite the valid and sound reason. In fact, he was extending quite the big of good faith and sincerity, and unfortunately for Rui, it seemed as though everyone around him was inclined to go with the offer.

Chairman Deacon glanced at his secretary, nodding. Immediately, the latter procured contracts for each of Martial Artists. They were surprisingly small, but Rui understood why he had done that. He wanted to ensure that the Martial Squires felt comfortable with the contracts rather than submerging them in pages and pages of litigative jargon that they simply were not equipped to understand.

Many of them would not be eager to sagree to something that they had no understanding of, and most of them did not have lawyers with them when they migrated to this state, they did not necessarily trust lawyers in a state to proof read a contract from someone with far more power than them.

Chairman Deacom seemed to be well aware of this dynamic, and clearly did not want to push them. Thus each clayse was framed using as simple language as could possibly used without affecting their meaning.

The contract specified an exchange of services and aid with the investigation, intelligence, surveillance, tracking and potentially elimination of the individual or group of individuals that were responsible for the mass harvesting of esoteric mineral and organic deposits in the twelfth floor.

In exchange, the Martial Squires would get remunerated at an hourly rate which was contingent on their rank, willingness to adhere to orders, and actual merits achieved.

The remuneration included an immense amount of wealth, the sheer amount even a Martial Squire of his rank could earn made even his earnings from the Vilun Island mission pale in comparison. These were numbers that he would never be able to earn even if he spent years taking the most lucrative missions from the Martial Union.

This alone was worth the contract in the eyes of most of the Martial Squires. Then there was the fact that there were other benefits promised, such as promotion which would increase the number of private commissions they got, free access to Martial Art techniques and other growth and training resources.

This was also an attractive offer. All Martial Artists cared about Martial Art techniques, because techniques were the foundation of Martial Art. Thus, one could expect that Martial Artists were certainly attracted by the prospects of obtaining thise Martial Art techniques.

Even if Martial Squires did not necessarily need existing techniques to progress, and ought not to solely master existing techniques to progress, they were still a useful resource in creating modifications and even new techniques.

That wasn't the only offer that was made, the contract even specified that Deacon Industries would subsidize and foot the bill for all expenses related to the mission, including supplying the necessary gear and equipment and things like healing and rejuvenation potions.

This was also attractive as those expenses piled up over the many months of constant dungeon raiding.

What was especially alluring was the fact that yhe contract did not try to bond them in anyway, and Martial Squires were allowed to cancel their arrangements with Deacon Industries very easily, all they needed to do was give a formal notice one week ahead of time, and they could collect their remuneration and leave.

They did have to sign a non-disclosure agreement with Deacon Industries surrounding their

These was quite the generous terms and conditions. And this meant that there was no way that the Martial Squires could be worried about being trapped in some kind of slave contract.

Rui noticed that the other Martial Squires had already signed it, he quickly followed suit as he intended to sign it from the very start, and he did not want to draw any attention by being the only one who had yet to sign it.

"Brilliant," He smiled at all of them. "I look forward to our partnership. Now then, all of you are now officially Voidhunters of Deacon Industries. Thus, we can begin with our official planning session."

His secretary handed him an extremely rough and inaccurate pictorial representation of the twelfth floor, with several highlighted sections.

"This map is certainly not a literal and accurate representation of the twlefth floor. As I'm sure you all know by now, no accurate and precise map of the Shionel Dungeon exists. It cannot, due to the sensory jamming of the Shionel Dungeon the Voider cleanly sweeps the floor, section by section. The sections are numbered in the order they were cleared, and dated on the dates they were cleared. "

He tapped on the map. The sections were squares, and each one was back-to-back with each other.

There was a clear pattern, that Rui was starting to regret in hindsight. He had thought deeply about it, but he did not anticipate that Chairman Deacon would somehow manage to get such kind of information.
