Chapter 29 Small Steps, Big Stepsi

Translator: 549690339

Lanny Taylor’s state of mind was very complicated.

After agreeing to form a team, Link Grande kept his promise.

These days, he would contact her every day, telling her what she needed to do that day.

He never missed a day, never procrastinated.

Moreover, Link even took some time to honestly share their team’s research findings with her.

He truly allowed her and her team to understand what they were doing and why they were doing it.

Instead of skimming over details or cutting corners.

This surprised Lanny greatly.

She originally thought she would have to keep probing meticulously to gain this kind of information.

She thought she would have to put in a lot of effort in exchange for bits of knowledge from the other party.

Who knew it would come so easily and so exhaustively.

There was no need to engage in a battle of wits, no need for protracted negotiations.

All that was needed was to report the results and data of each day’s work.

Link seemed to be unaware of the high value of the information he was casually “leaking”.???????????????????????????????? y

Lanny couldn11 understand what Link was really thinking.

If it were her, she would definitely not disclose the information so easily.

At least not without some days of hard work in exchange.

What was Link thinking?

Link simply wanted to have an honest exchange.

After all, pushing people to do things was far less efficient than guiding them to do things on their own.

If you just whip a donkey, in time, the donkey will start to balk.

Not to mention when it comes to people.

But if you hang a carrot in front of the donkey, that’s a completely different story.

The donkey will work hard, patiently, and uncomplainingly, pulling the grindstone and the cart, just to get that carrot into its mouth.

In Link’s view, Lanny Taylor and her team were like a donkey that still had a bit of wild instinct.

There was a high chance that they would refuse to pull the cart or even retreat when beaten.

To better control this donkey, he needed to hang a “carrot”.

Fresh, sweet, delicious, tempting.

So that they could see the hope of completing the camp task, even the possibility of overtaking Team Link and finishing the task before them, Instead of muddling through tasks without knowing the reasons why they are doing them.

This was the “carrot” that Link carefully chose.

Open communication is the way to hang the carrot.

Reality proved that open communication worked very well.

The “carrot” played a significant role.

Lanny’s team members, the 5 members of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”, and 5 other apprentices from different organizations, no longer resisted much about teaming up with Link.

After receiving the task, none of them would lazily go through the motions or secretly slack off.

Lanny watched all these changes carefully.

She faintly felt like she was undercharging and losing out.

She wanted to mooch off Link’s wisdom and his innovative thinking, and indeed she did mooch off.

But the problem was, she was also being mooched off in return.

And she was being mooched even more severely!

She had a strong premonition that Link Grande was speeding towards his goal.

Especially after she took the initiative to offer him assistance.

Monroe Brisegio calmly accepted Elise Clark’s departure from the team.

In fact, even if he didn’t accept it, there’s nothing he could do.

Stop her?

If Elise really went crazy, Monroe wouldn’t dare to bear her wrath.

Though they both had spatial storage magic tools, the capacity of Monroe’s leather pouch was far inferior to the small bag on Elise’s waist.

Moreover, there was a huge difference between their personal wealth.

If they really started a fight, all of Monroe’s Rune Objects and Magic Tools would be exhausted, while Elise could still continuously produce enhanced versions of Self-Destructing Fire Thunders.

He didn t want to endure another bombardment.

Otherwise, he would completely lose face.

As for Link Grande who triggered Elise’s departure,

To be honest, Monroe didn’t resent him at all.

He knew very well that Elise left not because of Link Grande.

The reason was that he himself didn’t earn Elise’s trust in the past, and he also failed to hide his intentions, which she saw through.

This time, if Monroe should vent his anger on Link Grande;

Then, the next time a similar or different problem arises, who will he vent his anger on?

A person who always blames others and doesn’t have the awareness and courage to face his own mistakes cannot accomplish great things.

Monroe had high ambitions and didn’t want to be a wizard apprentice all his life!

He absolutely did not want to deceive himself.

On the contrary, Monroe admired Link Grande, especially after their direct communication.

He had no doubt about Link’s genius in botany and Potion Study.

After splitting up with Elise, Monroe and the few people who believed in him also became busy.

First of all, he used some connections to enter a ruin that had already been discovered by others.

After carefully observing the various records in the ruin, Monroe confirmed that the battle between the God Slayer and the gods had indeed happened in the history of this world.

This indirectly confirmed Link Grande’s theory of “Destructive Rescue”.

At least the tremendous growth in size of carnivorous animals, the mutation of some plants, and the changes in a few herbivorous animals, could all find logically consistent explanations.

Therefore, they needed to act quickly.

Not to say they should finish the camp task before Link Grande, but at least they needed to improve their own and their team’s participation, performance, and achievements in the camp task.

In the inter-regional competition, the academy seemed to have thrown the wizard apprentices into this world and barely managed them.

But every action of all the wizard apprentices was clearly recorded by the academy.

Otherwise, how would the academy grade and rank the apprentices?
