Tricia found a group of witches to help the victims imprisoned by slave traders. Those witches not only wanted fame, but also had their eyes on the people that Tabitha tried to recruit. Unfortunately, due to Tabitha's strong opposition, the witches did not seem to get what they wanted.
"Hey, Gravizi, I have recruited a logistics team of 20 people and need an instructor. Do you want to give it a try?"
In the suite on the third floor of the hotel, Tebitha called Gravichi and asked him.
"Yes, they are all ordinary people."
"It's okay, you can take turns, but I'll only pay one person's salary."
"Okay, vehicle repair, weapon maintenance, basic physical training, shooting training and combat training. It would be best if we could also teach you how to dismantle monsters."
"Okay, see you later. Just look for Deman when you come over."
After a brief exchange, Taibesha hung up the phone. At this time, there were twenty or thirty people gathered in the living room of the suite on the third floor. Although most of them still seemed a little cramped, Taibesha was quite satisfied with the sudden increase in the number of people in her team.
A group of wandering witches brought by Tricia left. They took away the abducted people who needed to return home, but in the face of Tabitha's insistence, the witches were unable to take away the homeless people.
Those people were taken in by Tabitha, and they were the ones in the living room who were included in her logistics team.
"From now on, you will be a member of the logistics team of the Dandelion Adventure Group. Food and accommodation are provided. If you are not on a mission, you will receive a monthly salary of 20,000 credit points. After completing the training, you can move freely during non-mission periods. You need to apply for resignation three months in advance. Is there any problem?"
After hanging up the call with Gravizi, Tebetha sat on the sofa, with a bit of leadership aura, and asked the group standing opposite her.
"No problem, we'll follow the master's instructions." The men and women responded respectfully in unison.
"Call me Captain from now on. You are not slaves. If you need any, you can go to Tricia's Witch Hut for counseling. The cost will be reimbursed."
Faced with the almost humble respect of the crowd, Taibetha did not show any disgust or resistance. She spoke calmly and was not too enthusiastic about psychological counseling.
Well, although these people were not treated as slaves, Tabitha was obviously not a moralist.
These people are not much different from ordinary people in terms of combat power. The reason why they have to stay behind to challenge the Wandering Witch is because they are servile enough.
After recruiting these people under her command, Taibesha will not deduct the treatment they deserve, and if they want to change themselves, Taibesha will also provide them with help.
But they are all well-behaved and hardworking subordinates. Why do you get so angry about teaching them that everyone is equal and everyone is free? Is that crazy?
Training slaves can definitely be considered a very unscrupulous act, but if they already have enough slavery? Haha, most normal people would not take the initiative to instill the concept of equality and freedom in their own slaves. Well, unless the slaves are not their own.
Therefore, when it comes to these people's mental problems, Tabitha is more inclined to take a laissez-faire attitude. She will not reinforce their slave mentality, bestow favors to increase their sense of belonging, but she will not actively change their mentality either.
Simply put, people still have to rely on themselves.
The fact that Tabitha can do this is already a sign of kindness and can basically be classified as a model below that of a parent.
Neither Mu Hua nor Vivian had any objection to this, and for this group of logistics personnel, the term "team leader" was probably directly brought to the level of master, which could be considered a situation where everyone was happy.
"Clark, Eve, what are you going to do?" After instructing everyone, Tabitha looked at Clark and Eve again.
Clark and Eve did not stand with the logistics staff. They both followed Mu Hua's lead.
"They have good fighting power and can become the main combat members. You should follow Betha too." After making eye contact and facing the inquiring eyes of the two, Mu Hua shook his head and said.
"Okay then. The main combat personnel will receive a fixed monthly salary of one demon gold coin, and the share of the spoils will be calculated separately. The minimum contract term is one year, and resignation applications must be submitted six months in advance." "You will go choose a room for yourselves later and live here from now on. In two days, the training ground will be converted into a base, and the logistics personnel will live there from now on." Seeing that the two had no objections, Taibesha said seriously.
"Okay, stop standing there and go wash up. These are the clothes prepared for you. Wear them for now. I'll ask Deman to arrange a room for you. Rest well for a few days."
Tabitha clapped her hands and pointed in the direction of the bathroom, where there was a clothes rack with many sportswear hanging on it. At Tabitha's instruction, everyone selected suitable clothes and went into the men's and women's bathrooms respectively.
"Huh~" After everyone left, Tabitha let out a long sigh. The seriousness on her face disappeared and she lay down on the sofa relaxedly.
"Joan, buy some daily necessities for them tomorrow and pay them one month's salary in advance so that they can buy what they need." Tabitha said to Joan, seeming tired.
"Hey, miss, I'm not a member of your team. It's not my place to deal with this kind of thing." Qiong chuckled and refused.
"Then Vivian, you come." Tabitha rolled her eyes at Joan and turned to look at Vivian.
"I'm not familiar with the human world. Didn't you say that Mu Hua is in charge of logistics?" Vivian evaded.
"Do you still want the ashes?" Mu Hua asked with a pout.
"Well, I see that Deman downstairs is very capable. It's okay to let him take care of daily necessities, right?" Vivian twitched her lips. It was obvious that the people present didn't like dealing with miscellaneous matters.
"We also need to buy some guns, ammunition and training supplies." said Tabitha.
"Ha, then you won't be able to find me. I'm really not familiar with the human world." Vivian grinned.
"It's Deman, Deman is indeed very capable!" Several people looked at Mu Hua again. Mu Hua very seriously affirmed Deman's ability, which earned him the contempt of several women.
Some female laughter could be heard from the bathroom. I wonder what kind of training these logistics personnel had gone through. Compared to the seriousness of the men, the girls' outward expressions were very natural.
Perhaps they are all branded with slavery to varying degrees in their souls, but when they regain their freedom, at least their outward appearance is not that of a lifeless person filled with bitterness and hatred.
Perhaps, those who can face slavery with pleasure are the real slaves? Perhaps they never think of themselves as slaves.
Tabetha and the others looked towards the bathroom, and no one knew what they were thinking in silence.
At Vivian's urging, Mu Hua gave her some ashes and some soul fragments.
He called old Morey again and ordered a batch of guns and ammunition from him for the training of logistics personnel. As for other equipment and supplies needed for training, Deman had to find them.
After everyone finished showering, except Clark and Eve, everyone else was taken to the second floor by Deman, who arranged food and lodging for them and assigned them rooms.
Eve lived in the same room with Vivian and Tabitha, but Clark was not able to live in Mu Hua's room and chose a bedroom for himself. After all, Mu Hua usually went back to his room with Ikaros in his arms...
After having a simple meal and taking care of some trivial matters, Taibesha received a phone call in the middle of the night and dragged Mu Hua out again.
The two rushed all the way to an airport in Heyman City and met Helen who had been waiting for a long time outside the airport.
Without much greeting, Helen hurriedly took the two of them onto a private plane. Due to speed limit issues, this type of aircraft with a fixed route was faster and more stable than an aircraft flying on an ordinary airway.
But they were going to an island on the planet Loren where demons lived to participate in the traditional activity of the Alan Demon Country - the Demon Night Banquet. (End of this chapter)
