”I assume you still need some more members left?” asked Shen Lu casually without even bothering to tone down his voice.
This was because he knew that the surrounding people were still listening onto their conversation, even though from the surface, these people appeared to be minding their own business, chatting with each others casually or eating silently.
Naturally, Duan Li could also somehow guess the intentions behind Shen Lu's question this time. Thus, he nodded and replied, ”Yup, I would still need 7 more followers for now!”
Shen Lu chuckled out, feeling glad that Duan Li wasn't someone that was too dense to understood his actions.
”I see, well how about this then. I knew a lot of students along with their background whom would be suitable enough to become your followers. But even though that was the case, I guess we should also open up a booth for people to fill in their names to apply!”
Hearing this, the surrounding people began to whisper silently.
”Did you hear that? Investigate whom these people that was mentioned by Shen Lu were!”
”They are opening up a booth! Great, I could try my luck!”
”This Shen Lu is truly a cunning person. I feel like there is more to this than meets the eye!”
”Definitely! The words spoken out by someone from the Strategist class were not to be taken lightly!”
In fact, some of these people were spot with their deductions. Shen Lu does has an ulterior motive when he mentioned those two things out loud.
Firstly, although he knew a lot of people with powerful reputation and backgrounds with them, he was not 100 percent sure that he could invite them to become Duan Li's followers.
Therefore, as the contingency plan, he purposely let out that they would be opening a public booth to accept application from the masses!
This way, even if he could only brought in two or three people from his personal invitation, the rest of the empty slots could be filled out by these people and this also made it appear fair to them as well.
Of course, he would have to conduct a thorough background checks on all those people before accepting them, and this was not a problem for him.
Shen Lu's smile was caught by Duan Li, and again, he could somehow understood the whole reason behind Shen Lu's scheme.
”This... why do I feel like I could somehow know what he was thinking? Has my instinct also underwent a qualitative change slowly?” thought Duan Li as he found this to be strange.
But then, he soon remembered that back before this, after his first encounter with the golden mysterious pearl, he was already able to deduce whose potatoes it was during the meal with his mother and the number of copper coins inside the pouche bag that he could identify without even looking inside it.
”I see... So the changes has already been made back then. But why does this instinct of mine did not activate when I was in the Eternal maze before? It would've been a great help to me and I wouldn't have to destroy that chamber as well...” Duan Li sighed inwardly.
