Chapter 223: Strength in numbers

The prince did what he said.

He told his soldiers to tell every guest in the hotel about the meeting.

Sometimes he would knock on other guests' doors during the day and tell them when and where the meeting would take place.

Because there were many guests in the hotel and their travel times were not fixed, it took them three days to notify everyone.

This was also thanks to the fact that some guests also passed on the news to each other.

The meeting place was set in the back garden in the backyard.

There was still a large open space in the back garden.

It was just right for meetings.

When the meeting time came, the guests came one after another.

After all, the person who called the meeting was the prince.

Although it is the end of the world now...

but the identity of the prince still has some intimidation.

Moreover, some guests felt that they really needed someone to step up and take charge of the situation.

The prince stood at the front, waiting for the guests to arrive.

Gu Wanyin sat aside with Lao Liu and Bai Shuwen.

Lao Liu was still crunching a bag of potato chips in his hand.

"Boss Gu, what kind of meeting is the prince going to hold?" Bai Shuwen asked curiously.

"It should be related to vampires." Gu Wanyin said.

After a while, almost all the guests arrived.

Gu Wanyin took a quick look.

Some guests did not come.

This is normal.

There are always people who no longer take the prince's identity seriously.

And some people have experienced some things and don't want to trust others. They like to be alone.

Fortunately, the prince did not intend to force those who did not come to attend the meeting.

He was already very happy to have so many guests present.

Janet, Joshua and Bruno also came.

Joshua kept holding Janet's hand.

Bruno looked at the prince warily.

He didn't know the prince very well.

So he was always worried that the prince would embarrass Janet, his ex-fiancee.

But he thought too much.

After clearing his throat, the prince said: "Sorry to delay you for some time. I called you all here today mainly to discuss the fight against vampires."

Hearing this, Bai Shuwen was happy and whispered in Gu Wanyin's ear: "You guessed it right."

Gu Wanyin smiled.

"Aren't we always fighting vampires?" Eugene asked puzzled.

"Yes, since we moved into the hotel and bought weapons, everyone has started to learn how to fight vampires." Joshua also said.

"Of course I know that," said the prince. "Although I haven't been here for long, I know most of the things. What I want to say is that although you have been fighting vampires before, you have been fighting alone, or at most, a small team of several people went out to fight vampires together. Have you ever thought about all of us uniting together to fight vampires?"

As soon as the prince said this, it was like throwing a stone into a calm lake.

The guests began to talk about it.

"Come to think of it, this does seem to be a good idea. There is strength in numbers!" said Jerry.

"Actually, I've had similar ideas before." Tom said, "But I think we lack a leader who can bring everyone together."

Although he is the captain of Tom's team, he knows his own abilities and he's afraid he can't lead too many people.

So he can only put this idea aside.

However, the prince is different.

Although he looks silly sometimes, he can make so many soldiers loyal to him, which shows that he has leadership ability.

And he also has the identity of a prince.

When he speaks, he is also passionate and very contagious.

Tom thinks that maybe the prince is really the leader who can bring them together...

But some people have different voices.

"You mean, let's form an army to fight vampires? Then, after killing a vampire, how should the blood essence beads be distributed?" A guest frowned and asked, "Let me give you an analogy. If I fight a vampire with great effort and beat him to the point of being completely exhausted, and then another person kills him with a knife, then does the blood essence be mine or his?"

In the past, they didn't care about the blood essence beads.

But now it's different. The blood essence beads can be exchanged for points in the hotel!

"It's already this late, and you're still thinking about this?" Another guest questioned him unhappily, "Don't you want to kill all the vampires or drive them away?"

"Haha, of course I thought about it, but I can't ignore the matter of the blood essence beads! This involves points! You all know how hard life is outside the hotel. What's wrong with me planning for myself? I'm not greedy for what I don't deserve. I just want to ask, if that happens, how should the blood essence beads be dealt with? Am I wrong?"

The atmosphere was a little stiff for a while.

Many guests felt that what this guest said was true.

Human beings now need to unite, but it is also normal to think more about themselves.

If you don't have points, you will be kicked out of the hotel.

By then, you won't have the chance to unite with others.

Are you waiting for them outside the hotel? You never know when they will be captured or killed by vampires, or they may die of hunger and thirst.

"The atmosphere is a bit awkward." Lao Liu was a little worried and forgot to eat potato chips. "Sister, do you think Prince can handle it?"

"He can." Gu Wanyin said, "Since he has decided to do this, he will think of all possible situations in advance."

Jerry couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, as he said, what should we do in this situation?"

"I've thought about it." The prince said lightly, "After each battle, you will hand over the blood essence beads to me, and then I will allocate points to you according to how much effort each of you has made on the battlefield."

After the prince said this, someone laughed sarcastically.

"What a joke, can you accurately know how much effort each of us has made on the battlefield? Even if you are watching by the side during every battle, you only have two eyes, can you keep an eye on everyone?"

"I can't keep an eye on them." The prince said, "So, I have already negotiated a cooperation with Boss Gu."

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Gu Wanyin.

Gu Wanyin smiled and raised his hand to greet them.

"Sister, when did you two reach a cooperation agreement? How come I didn't know?" Lao Liu asked in astonishment.

"I don't know either," Bai Shuwen said.

"The day before yesterday at noon when you went to the restaurant to eat, Prince came to see me."
