But they couldn't really do anything about it.

The fact that the soul magician is still alive will definitely spread far and wide, but since she's already a rank 7 soul magician, there was not much that they could do.

Mr. Jones remembered that his own son told him that once they advanced to rank 7, there will be many things changed.

One of them was the fact that it would get harder and harder to kill them.

Their abilities alone were more than enough to make many people felt the hardship in killing them. Various trump cards were hidden secretly and they would be able to escape death even after suffering fatal wounds…

Each and every single one of these returnees were very troublesome to deal with.

Making them enemies were not something that the people in the Green Planet ever wanted.

But…

It seemed that living in harmony all the time was nothing more than a pipe dream based on this development.

"Sir…"

"Leave it be and let the report stay here." Mr. Jones couldn't really do anything to that soul magician, so he planned to talk with his son later. Besides, their first priority should be to focus on the 5 cracks in Continent Z.

While they knew that these cracks now represented the returnees in Continent Z, only two of them were near City A Base and both has been sealed by Riya.

One of them was close to City J where Dina was standing guard.

Another one was handed over to the Martial Arts Association.

And the last one… he had just received report that the Magic Association wanted to claim that crack for themselves.

Mr. Jones felt that they should have other plans when they took the crack for themselves, but he couldn't really do anything but accept it.

After all, he had no right to refuse.

And that crack was so far away that he didn't have the time and energy to care.

…

City A Base, Arnold and Amelia's side

Bang!

Considering that both Arnold and Amelia were relatively strong and had reached rank 5, the two of them naturally fought on the frontline along with the soldiers. These soldiers were specifically trained and received more resources, all for the sake of them stepping forward when it was really necessary.

There were also many other magicians, magic warriors, and even warriors who participated in the battle.

The existence of the formation allowed them to go out and fight without much worry about their defense. Because all they needed to do is to make sure that the ammunition was enough.

Fire, fire, and fire.

That was all they needed to do.

After they had exhausted their mana, their friends would replace them and this continued until all of the magic beasts were eliminated.

The number of ordinary people and soldiers were still considerable in City A Base.

"But it's a bit too safe." Arnold looked at the way these people attack recklessly and frowned. The existence of the formation that Riya made will slowly make these people have dependence on it.

In this case, it was indeed fine for them to use it because there were some powerful magic beasts mixed in.

And both Samuel and Riya were busy with other things.

But if they continued to be like this, they wouldn't be able to fight when the formation was not activated and this is not a good thing for the future of the base's development.

"Huh?" Amelia was confused when she saw Arnold writing a report in his phone. "What are you doing?"

"Making report so that these soldiers and people with relatively higher level to go out and train more. There are already mission to kill the magic beasts and I suggest that the number of contribution points for other jobs can be appropriately reduced. Otherwise, I feel that they will never grow up." Arnold's expression was solemn.

He used to be a mercenary and fought at the border.

Every single day was filled with danger, but it was also what allowed him to grow up quickly and become strong. Because he knew that if he was not careful enough, what awaited him would be a bullet lodged straight into his head.

Arnold definitely didn't want to die.

So he forced himself to train hard.

Everyone in City A Base used to do the same and trained themselves before they knew the existence of the rune master and so on. Because they knew that the runes that existed were only used to help their lives a little bit and to make some live saving talisman or magic scrolls.

But after using the large formation to block the magic beasts and repeating it again this time…

Arnold realized that these people had slowly put down their caution and were only busy using up their magic skills like spamming RPG game.

It was a bit unsightly.

While it was fine for this battle, but if they continued with this mentality for the next battle, what awaited them would be nothing more than their own demise.

Arnold couldn't bear to see it.

Samuel had build this City A Base with such difficulty that Arnold couldn't accept it if the people in this base were squandering his effort with such a half baked method. So he felt that City A Base needed a reform.

And with so many magic beasts outside, who would be afraid that there wouldn't be enough supplies to stimulate them?

Farming had just succeeded not long ago and they were already processing a lot of grains to stock up.

"…I never know you're so dedicated towards management before, Brother Arnold." Amelia looked at her boyfriend in astonishment.

After all, she had never seen him like this.

"Not really… I don't have any detailed plan and I plan to let Ruben be the one to make it. Anyway, he's proficient in it."

Amelia: "…" poor Ruben.

If Ruben were to know what these two were thinking, he will definitely scold them.

What a good friend they were!
