My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

By his side, a Shadow Knight from the Legendary Realm stood motionless like an obsidian statue.

"Across the Whirlpool Sea, in the Great Domain, we're not planning on exploring, but... we still need to thoroughly scout out the situation, and you will be responsible for this," he said.

The Shadow Knight had a group of excellent Scouts at his disposal.

He was not planning on developing the domain across the sea, but if reconnaissance revealed some extremely precious opportunities or treasures, he could change his mind at any time.

The Shadow Knight asked, "Lord, what about the Gunner Master from Iron Stone Mountain? Are we still recruiting? More and more Lords are heading to Iron Stone Mountain these days."

The Gemstone Grand Duke waved his hand dismissively, "No more recruitment. By the look of the Gunner Master, he's not the kind of person we can recruit. Let's not waste any more energy on him."

Of course, he had tried.

He personally visited twice, even offering extremely generous terms, but the Gunner Master rejected them without much thought.

With that, the Gemstone Grand Duke had given up and no longer entertained the thought of trying.

He could not possibly offer better conditions.

For one, the conditions he had offered were already exceedingly high; secondly, if he offered more, how would his own veterans feel?

"Let the other Lords compete for him," he declared.

"I estimate that all their competing, heh, will likely lead to nothing."

...

Iron Stone Mountain, originally just an insignificant hill, had become famous ever since a Gunner Master hero settled there.

More and more Lords or high-ranking professionals traveled thousands of miles to arrive here.

Thanks to the peaceful environment of the Shen Luo Domain, even Second-order elite-level professionals could cross thousands of miles in teams.

Of course, because the Shen Luo Domain is a country with many forces and does not have the convenient Steel Train like the Tai Xuan Alliance, the Lords or professionals who could travel thousands of miles at this time mostly had flying mounts.

That day.

A magnificent cyan bird, commanding the winds of the heavens, arrived at this place.

Descending from it were Sophia and Duo Lai—half of Duo Lai.

Duo Lai's half-body followed Sophia—the human-girl shaped body.

The other half stayed in the temporary camp—the Big Slime body.

But even 'Half-Duo Lai' possessed strength surpassing that of ordinary Legends.

"Is this where that some sort of Wild Hero is located?"

Duo Lai looked around curiously.

Sophia: "Yes, right here on this mountain, is a Gunner Master."

She had accidentally learned of the Gunner Master of Iron Stone Mountain while gathering information.

She was well aware that a Gunner Master meant little for their own Lord.

However, Sophia also knew that the Gunner Master's Epic Profession required a high level of craftsmanship and technical proficiency, and their Lord had once lamented not having such an adept in their ranks.

Consequently, during her investigation, Sophia made a point to look into the information of this Gunner Master; she discovered that he possessed exceedingly skillful firearms modification techniques.

The Lords and professionals arriving here were not all intent on recruiting the master.

Some, realizing they had no hope of recruitment, settled for the next best thing, asking the master to modify their firearms.

The Gunner Master, in turn, made some money from this.

A Gunner Master with technical expertise was indeed worth the trip.

Therefore, she volunteered and found herself a task.

Mu Yuan, upon hearing of this, even lent her 'Half-Duo Lai.'

"Mature creatures indeed find their own work, resolving issues for the Lord that the Lord hasn't even thought of yet," he remarked.
