"Manpower and resources are seriously insufficient."
Early in the morning, Gu Tao sat at his desk, carefully calculating the resources needed. He discovered that even the simplest defense system he envisioned would require over three thousand people, yet he only had thirty at his disposal. This was akin to Xin Chen yearning for the revival of the Taoist Sect, while in reality, the Inner Sect had only two people.
Whether the Taoist Sect is revived or not didn't concern Gu Tao; what mattered to him was whether he could establish a combat network capable of basic defense in the near future. It wasn't important whether the network belonged to him; what was crucial was that it would include him and shelter him within its web.
