Chapter 800 Clan Matters
It had been half a year since Greem left the clan. With his return, all the accumulated matters and business crashed down upon him.
Greem had to spend five days just to deal with the stuff related to Fire Throne.
The sudden clan war had wrung Fire Throne dry, almost causing the clan to lose all of its accumulated wealth and power along with it. The Crimson Clan might have won the war on the surface, but their lack of strength prevented them from turning the victory into fruits of war.
As such, apart from the twenty-four adept prisoners, the Crimson Clan’s profits after the war were nearly zero. In fact, due to the enemies breaking into the tower and inflicting severe damage to the lower levels of the tower, Greem had to invest large numbers of magical crystals for repairs.
If this was an ordinary clan war, Greem, as the victor, could rob sufficient magical crystals and resources from the five adept clans to make up for the losses. However, the enemy had been defeated, but the Crimson Clan did not have any forces to conquer and raid the opponent’s territory or resource sites.
Consequently, all these benefits fell into the pockets of other ‘outsiders.’
The Kamala Clan that had spearheaded this war had lost this battle. They relied on their relatively untouched forces to devour and assimilate the Magic Forest Hut before going forth to raid the other crippled clans.
Greem arrived at White Tower after returning from the Goblin Plane.
As a newly established land, this place was more lively than when he first came here.
The arrival of sixteen new adepts undoubtedly filled in many empty spots within the clan, placing certified individuals in all the various subjects and branches.
Greem spent ten days to meet with these new adepts and establish some degree of rapport.
Though they had only chosen to submit to the clan due to the threat to their lives, it was also true that their arrival was what propped up the Crimson Clan. Without their existence, the Crimson Clan would perpetually be stuck in an awkward situation where the few powerful adepts were the only pillars of the clan, and the others could only watch on.
However, with the increase of clan adepts, the resources within the clan started to become insufficient.
At this moment, Greem had to think about a way to earn more magical crystals and resources. It was the only way to support such a large group of adepts.
Of course, finding a suitable place and constructing a resource site there was what most adept clans would do. However, the operation of a resource site required a substantial initial investment.
The Crimson Clan couldn’t possibly come up with such a sum of money after the brutal war they had just experienced!
With no choice left to him, Greem cast his eyes upon Lance.
The last few dragon hunting activities had brought two to three million crystals of profit to the clan. That was something Greem still remembered clearly. Now that his purse was empty, Greem’s mind immediately wandered to the dragons.
Greem felt like he had profited immensely after the difficulties he had experienced in the Fire Elementium Plane. In particular, the restrictions on his soul origin had wholly vanished after providing the mysterious witch with the requested item. His power had been increasing rapidly since then.
It had only been twenty to thirty years since his advancement to Second Grade, and Greem was already seeing a slight possibility of advancing to Third Grade.
However, his accumulation wasn’t sufficient yet, and his magical knowledge reserve was also lacking. As such, Greem had been spending the past few days traveling everywhere and trying his best to settle the clan’s internal matters.
He required more time to think about and reflect upon matters of future development.
