Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 233 The Current State of the Guild, and the Current State of the Brothers and Sisters

Of the total income of 113 million, the first group receives 30 per month, while the second and third groups each receive 20.

This income is net income. The team's daily expenses have already been included in the guild's total expenses. Theoretically, Su Yu can freely dispose of these 30 gold coins.

But in reality, this money has to be shared with the officers within the regiment. The deputy regimental commander, several battalion commanders, deputy battalion commanders, company commanders and so on all need bonuses and have to seek benefits for their subordinates from time to time. If there is no money, who will listen to you?
Su Yu mostly acts as a hands-off manager, so this benefit cannot be lacking, and the bonus cannot be low either. After deducting bonuses and benefits, he can use about 10 gold coins each month.

Well, that's part of his income as the association president.

10 gold per month, that's 120 million gold per year. That's not just high, it's extremely high.

This is the reward for putting so much effort into running the guild.

After returning to the guild, he did nothing for the next few days, but instead spent a week leading a group of high-ranking guild members on a tour of the guild's territory.

We toured all three major cities and various resource-rich areas.

He warmly visited the guild members stationed in various locations, carefully inspected their work progress and achievements, affirmed and encouraged the work of the guild members fighting on the front lines, and put forward higher requirements and expectations.

During the exchange, he spoke warmly with his subordinates, encouraging them to continue their efforts, maintain a good working attitude, and continue to work hard for the development of the guild.

Afterwards, he proposed increasing everyone's welfare benefits to resolve their worries and allow them to devote themselves to their work with greater enthusiasm, thereby achieving even more brilliant results and jointly writing a new chapter for the guild.

Ten days later, a massive fleet consisting of five Tier 6 Giant Wooden Divine Ships and thirty Tier 5 Wrathful Whale Ships sailed on the sea west of Ten Thousand Poison Island.

The three main regiments and forty independent detachments each mobilized 50% of their members to participate. The fleet lined up in a row, and a large number of demon-attracting incense sticks were lit, attracting monsters from the surrounding hundreds of kilometers of sea to gather here.

Thunder and fire rose and fell, more than 200,000 players gathered, tens of millions of Gu worms gathered into a cloud, and countless magical treasures and spells bombarded the area, killing as many monsters as they came.

Su Yu, Chu Xinyue, Su Huan, Meng Siyi, and other high-ranking officials gathered on the deck of the main warship in the center. He looked up at the massive fleet and his more than 200,000 subordinates, feeling a surge of pride.

"These are all my men!"

The super guild with over 200,000 members rarely holds events more than a few times a year. Everyone in the guild channel is very excited, with people shouting about what good items have been dropped, and receiving system notifications about how many cultivation points and Taoist cultivation have been gained.

This gain was nothing to Su Yu, just a drop in the ocean, as she couldn't even advance a few levels in a year. But for ordinary members, it was definitely a substantial income.

On the deck, Su Yu was gazing at the fleet when Su Huan approached and said with some emotion:
"I never imagined that the guild would develop to this extent in just a few years. I think my father and mother would be very pleased to know this."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu suddenly had a thought and asked:

"Second brother, did Father write you a letter?"

Su Huan nodded and said:
"Yes, two years ago I went to Flying Star Island and asked the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce to send a letter back, telling them about the situation of my brother and me. Father replied not long ago."

Su Yu immediately asked:

What did Father say?

Su Huan laughed:

"My father was surprised and pleased. He told us brothers to support each other. In addition, he wrote that since we brothers have achieved some success, he could take care of our other brothers as appropriate."

"What did Father say?"

"My father didn't say anything, just told us to handle it ourselves and to take care of things appropriately."

"That's it."

Su Yu thought for a moment and asked:

"Second brother, do you know where your other older brothers and sisters are? Can you bring them over?"

Su Huan nodded and said:
"I know, but most of them have already settled down elsewhere, have their own families, and their own relatives and friends. Some will come over, but a few probably won't."

Su Yu nodded and said:
"First ask around. Those who are willing to come, bring them over. Those who are unwilling are fine too. Prepare two sets of the Five Elements True Scripture, enough funds and magic treasures to help them overcome their first great tribulation, enough to change their fate."

"Sure, I'll ask them first, but it's too far away, I estimate it will take several years."

"It's alright, we're all still young, we can wait."

Su Huan laughed.

The brothers are indeed quite young. The eldest brother is only 53 years old, still in his prime. The second brother is 39 years old, and the other brothers and sisters are all in their twenties to thirties, which is still considered young for cultivators.

This is the perfect age to strive for success. With good cultivation techniques and sufficient resources, building a mid-to-low-grade Dao foundation shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, forget about getting a high-grade Dao Foundation, but if you have enough resources and work hard, you might actually be able to get a mid-to-low-grade Dao Foundation.

"boom!"

A primordial sea mine fell into the ocean, and a violent Xuan Yin cold tide exploded, instantly freezing all the spirits within a three-kilometer radius.

The cold wave froze everything, then burst open again, then froze and burst open once more, in an endless cycle. All the monsters within its range, from level 70-80 deep-sea fish to level 120-130 bosses, were annihilated by the cold wave.

"The president is awesome!"

His subordinates cheered and praised him loudly, perfectly fitting the occasion.

Su Yu urged his twin swords to shoot into the distance, encircling a large sea serpent attracted by the demon-attracting incense. He compressed his two ninth-tier flying swords to the thickness of a hair and used them to slash back and forth around the sea serpent. Deep, bone-revealing bloodstains instantly appeared on his body, and his flesh turned up as if about to explode.

The combined power of flying swordsmanship, swordsmanship mastery, and the spatial laws of immortal bones reduced the defense of the level 100+ BOSS to zero, resulting in full damage with every strike. A single sword strike dealt 56400 damage, while two thin, hair-like sword energies coiled around the train-thick body of the giant sea serpent, dealing 700,000 to 800,000 damage in a single rotation.

The sword flashed like lightning, slashing back and forth, and in just five seconds it cleaved the BOSS with more than four million HP in two.

To make up for her long absence from the guild and her subordinates, Su Yu worked very hard to level up with them and chatted with them in a very friendly manner.

He threw Ao Run into the sea, sending her to the bottom to drive the BOSS up, and then she would show off her strength, taking as little as three seconds to kill one and no more than ten seconds at most, frantically displaying her power.

He didn't pick up any of the equipment dropped by bosses; he handed it all over to the guild and then distributed it to his subordinates.

One week, half a month.

After a two-day rest, some of the subordinates returned to take turns with the guild members who had stayed behind, and then continued their frenzied killing spree.

After another half month of intense online gaming, they switched places with the other half of the remaining members, and so on, constantly changing.

They farmed relentlessly for three months, with everyone taking turns in three rounds. Each member accumulated hundreds of millions of kill experience points and four to five thousand cultivation points, which was extremely generous for ordinary members. Since ordinary members accounted for more than 80% of the guild's total members, this was enough to significantly boost the guild's overall strength.

"This is the last wave. Let's go and take down that sea serpent king."

At Su Yu's command, the fleet turned and headed straight for its destination, soon arriving at the sea area where Su Yu had first encountered the nameless divine bird.

He beckoned Ao Run to him, and whispered in his ear:

"Go down there and lure out that sea serpent king."

Ao Run glared and shook his head.

"It was full of worms, it was disgusting."

"You don't need to go deep; just drop a mine far away and come back."

"I do not want."

Su Yu's eyes widened:
"Are you going or not? If you don't go, you won't get any more drinks."

"Go and go!"

She spat out a mouthful of saliva hundreds of meters high, her massive body suddenly swung, creating a giant wave tens of meters high, and then she flipped over and disappeared into the sea.

Half an hour later, the seawater not far away began to boil, and a blue dragon burst out of the water and sprang hundreds of meters before crashing onto the deck of the giant wooden ship with a 'thud'.

Su Yu immediately shouted:

"Raise the defenses, prepare for battle!"

One by one, the warships raised their shields, and many players flew into the sky to prepare for their positions.

Less than ten minutes after Ao Run came out, sea snakes rushed out of the water, and within five minutes, they were densely packed. From high above, it looked like countless long snakes had gathered together, which was terrifying.

"attack!"

The densely packed Divine Thunder Towers began to bombard, and hundreds of thousands of players in the air joined forces to unleash a barrage of magic. The water surface instantly boiled, and countless sea serpents were smashed into mangled flesh, their blood staining the sea red.

The guild is not short of money now, and all the Divine Thunder Towers on all the main warships have been upgraded to level three.

Blazing Thunder Tower (Tier 3): Draws upon the earth's ley line energy or mana to condense into blazing thunder to injure enemies.

Attributes: Durability 200 million, Damage 10000, Attack Range 30 kilometers, Kill Range 150 meters, Energy Consumption 1500 points, Attack Frequency once every 15 seconds.

Dozens of warships concentrated their fire, creating an explosive destructive force.

"boom!"

The fleet was locked in fierce combat when suddenly the seawater within a radius of several kilometers exploded, and a colossal creature of an unusually large size burst out of the water.

That thing was about seven or eight kilometers long, with a head that resembled a python or a dragon, a single horn on its head, and two rows of sharp bone spurs extending from its head to its tail. It had a pair of wings on its back and soared into the air, thousands of meters high, before crashing into one of the giant wooden ships.

"The BOSS is here."

Gu Zhiqi stood on the deck of the giant wooden ship and loudly issued the command:
"The No. 1 main battleship is responsible for defense, the No. 2 and No. 3 main battleships are positioned 30 kilometers to the left, and the No. 4 and No. 5 main battleships are positioned 30 kilometers to the right. The secondary warships do not have fixed positions and can assist in attacks during gaps."

"The first main force regiment is ready to take position above the capital ship, the second regiment is in standby, the third regiment is on alert, and the other independent battalions are providing support from the side."

The team was well-organized and quickly took their positions one by one.

At this moment, someone noticed the huge hole in the center of the encirclement, 60 kilometers in diameter. Several newcomers who had been members for less than six months looked puzzled.
"The encirclement is so large, it's already beyond the firing range of most of our members, isn't it?"

"Are you suggesting we just rely on a few warships to surround and kill them? That's impossible, isn't it?"

"That's unlikely; there might be alternative arrangements."

"What extra arrangements? Are you saying we're relying on the president and other experts?"

At this moment, several old men overheard their discussion, chuckled to each other, and one of them said:
"You guys stop chatting and open your eyes wide to wait for the chairman to show off."

"What?"
