“I’m still 1 class away.” Lin Ye frowned slightly.
Even so, he still chose option 2.
“Current Level of Bunker is 3. You’ve satisfied the requirements to use the Class 3 Healing Priest recruitment order. Do you wish to use it?”
“Use it!”
With that, a familiar hexagram array appeared.
.
In the blink of an eye, the passageway filled with divine aura opened up.
A long-bearded elder wearing a white robe and a red vest walked out.
“Esteemed Lord, I am the Class 3 Light Priest, Gran of the Church of Light. According to our agreement, you need to pay me 100 Zombie Souls as a recruitment fee.” Elder Gran said with a smile.
“The Church of Light…”
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes.
This time, it was not a race, but a religion from the other world.
It seemed like the underworld was a complicated place as well.
With that in mind, he smiled and said, “Mr. Gran, I need an excellent healer like you. This is the recruitment fee.”
With that, he took out 100 zombie souls from the Civilization Archive.
“The Lord’s wealth is truly enviable,” Gran lamented.
He had lived for a long time and knew very well how powerful a human lord who could easily take out 100 zombie souls at this stage was.
It was precisely because of this that his attitude was humble, lacking the arrogance a priest from the Church of Light would have.
After sending the 100 Zombie Souls to the Church of Light, he bowed and chuckled softly. “From this day forth, Gran shall serve Lord Lin Ye till his return to Heaven. Ahem… until this employment relationship is over.”
Lin Ye rolled his eyes.
He was too lazy to respond to Gran’s choice of words.
To put it nicely, it was returning to heaven. To put it bluntly, it meant his death.
The employment relationship was that simple.
One paid for the service while the other provided the manpower. The relationship ends when one side dies in battle.
Of course, there were still some minor differences. In certain situations of death, the mercenaries may choose to flee or defend their lord based on their loyalty.
At the same time, the system sent a congratulatory message.
[Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. You have received the loyalty of Gran, the Class 3 Priest from the Church of Light. Current loyalty is at 60%. Healing effect increased by 10%. Speed of recovery of his divine force increased by 10%!]
After saying that, a new unit image appeared on the Civilization Archive’s recruitment page. It corresponded to the Light Priest, Gran.
When his fingers touched the image, the information was as follows:
Underworld Native: Gran
Job: Light Priest
Introduction: A loyal believer of the God of Light who has received the blessings from the God of Light and can absorb the divine power of light.

“Not bad. I hope there’s a way to save Adelia.”
With a sigh, Lin Ye brought Gran to the second floor of the bunker.
“An elemental ranger!”
When he saw Adelia, Gran was shocked again. Apart from him, his Lord Lin Ye had actually recruited other Class 3 specialists.
This made him think more highly of Lin Ye.
“Mr Guran, Adelia was poisoned by a Level 4 Venomous Zombie’s corpse poison. Do you have any way to save her?” Lin Ye hurriedly asked.
“I’ll try my best.” Gran’s brow furrowed.
He did not expect the first task given by the lord after he was recruited to be so difficult.
The corpse poison of a Level 4 Zombie…
Damn it, he was going to have to work hard.
The chance of recovery was low, but he did not dare to say that out loud.
Even if he was pretending, he had to show the lord that this 100 Zombie Souls was worth it.
As soon as he finished speaking, large amounts of glowing energy particles surged out from his body.
Whoosh—
Light illuminated the entire room on the second floor, and Gran himself looked like an emissary of the God of Light. He was cloaked in light, and every move he made exuded a sacred and inviolable aura.
“Sacred Healing!”
The next moment, Gran’s kind eyes focused. He pointed a finger, and directed all the light energy to pour into Adelia’s arm.
Swoosh——
When the black patches of corpse poison and the particles of light met, they were like fire and water. As soon as they came into contact, they were engaged in a fierce battle.
After a few minutes of stalemate, Priest Gran slowly withdrew his divine light energy. He was so tired that his legs were shaking and his face was pale.
Meanwhile, Adelia passed out from the pain.
“Priest Gran, how is Adelia?” Lin Ye asked.
“It’s hard to say.” Gran smiled bitterly and spread out his hands. “As you can see, I’m only a Class 3 Light Priest. Even if I use my full strength, I can barely suppress the Level 4 corpse poison. There are only two ways to cure this Elemental Ranger. Either kill zombies for treasure chests that drop healing pills above Level 4, or the lord can think of a way to obtain a Class 4 Priest upgrade scroll and help me level to Class 4, or you can find a Class 4 Priest recruitment order and directly recruit them.”
“Hold on,” Lin Ye instructed before running back to the backyard.
At this moment, Worker One, Tru, and a hundred other people were busy transporting supplies.
Just now, Lin Ye randomly chose some treasure chests. With 100xReward, the amount was still frightening.
“My lord?”
Tru was curious, seeing how anxious Lin Ye looked.
“Don’t worry about me, just do your thing,” Lin Ye replied as he walked over to the remaining seven treasure chests.
Two Sandalwood Treasure Chests, five Bronze Treasure Chests, and one Silver Treasure Chest.
Logically speaking, with 100xReward, there was a chance that the Bronze Treasure Chest and Silver Treasure Chest would open something above Level 4.
He just didn’t know if his luck as the European King was enough. All he needed was either for a healing pill or a Priest Upgrade Scroll to drop.
He opened the treasure chests one after another.
