The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

When returning to Emerald Island, because of the presence of outsiders, Colin did not let Charles continue to suffer, but instead took the airship. In addition to Knight Locke, there were 10 quasi-level professionals. He had already decided to set up his base in Shahe Town near the port.

Apart from these official and substitute members, there are no other people. This does not mean that things can be accomplished relying on these people alone. Apart from contact with other law enforcement teams and the headquarters, the information they can obtain is very limited. What should we do?

Of course, they would recruit some non-staff personnel on their own. The Security Affairs Division would not have to bear the expense, so Colin would naturally be in charge. However, Colin also had his own intentions, which was to use someone else's shell to develop his own power.

The island has a population of one million. Although they are all residents of the island and usually abide by the laws of the island, they cannot be said to be loyal warriors of the island. At most, they are relatively close to the Emerald Marquis's Mansion.

As for the new Villiers family and Duke Colin, to be honest, not much is known about them. The people on the island only recently learned that a relative of the August family moved to the island, and that's all.

As for the academy, although Marcus has always been in charge, a number of quasi-professionals have been trained in recent years. Except for his own people, the very few who were promoted to the first level were basically not retained because others had better places to go. But now it is different. Colin has been promoted to the second level and is able to recruit some first-level professionals.

After arriving at Emerald Island, Colin immediately arranged accommodation for Locke and others. He directly requisitioned a residential area in Shahe Town as the base for the law enforcement team. The corresponding compensation would not be missed, he just asked them to move to another place to live. After "friendly" communication, they quickly reached an agreement.

If you had such efficiency in relocation in your previous life, the officials would probably have cooperated with you all year round. Now Colin represents the will of the Griman Islands. Naturally, there would be no one on the island who would be so blind as to file a complaint with the Marquis's Mansion, and it would be useless even if they did.

According to Mario, each law enforcement team will have a floating ship as a regular patrol force. This benefit was requisitioned by Colin for "abusing his power for personal gain". I, Captain Colin, must serve you well, but I don't know where the ship is yet.

The recruitment of non-staff members for the law enforcement team is also very enthusiastic. Ordinary people at the bottom don't know what the law enforcement team does specifically, but it is probably an official law enforcement agency. However, people who possess extraordinary powers know it very well. Once they have a connection with the official, they can control considerable power.

Although he was just a non-staff member, as soon as Colin arranged for Locke to post the announcement, it caused a whirlwind on the Emerald Island, and the number of people who signed up reached three thousand the next day.

Colin had not counted the number of residents on the island and the number of professionals with extraordinary powers, but he had not expected so many to come at once. Moreover, not only ordinary residents but also some non-graduated students in the academy were quite interested.

Colin had to recruit teachers from the academy and people from the Emerald Marquis's Mansion to help with the screening, and Helen and several other girls also voluntarily participated.

Marcus kept complaining about this and his classes at the college were affected. However, he probably guessed what his friend was thinking, so he would certainly support him to the utmost even though he complained.

Originally, Colin thought that as long as they had extraordinary powers, even low-level professionals could join, but seeing so many people, they temporarily agreed that only mid-level professionals were qualified to become non-staff members.

For this item alone, two thousand people were eliminated on the first day, and another two thousand people registered on the second day. At the same time, one thousand three hundred people were eliminated during the qualification review. In the following week, more than three thousand people registered one after another, and two thousand five hundred people were eliminated on the spot.

As fewer people signed up later, Colin simply stopped accepting registrations and gathered the remaining 2,200 people to start the second round of screening.

In addition to considering strength, Colin also considered factors such as the source and specialties of the personnel.

After the Victoria Islands appeared in the wizarding world, some islands near the Griman Islands also strengthened their exchanges with the Victoria Islands. The booming development of the Emerald Isle will naturally attract residents from other islands. After the establishment of the Emerald Academy, this attraction will be even greater.

Among those who signed up for the semi-official law enforcement team this time were people from other islands. Considering the need to develop power in the future, Colin paid special attention to the situations of their places of origin.

After a second round of "strict" screening, 500 people were finally left as non-staff members. Files were created for the rest of the people, and they were promised that they could be filled at any time if there were vacancies. Only then was the recruitment ended.

During this period, Colin also contacted Wizard Vincent and Magician Feren (Knight Bill's deputy, because he is a magician, he is responsible for the contact work). The recruitment plans of both sides went smoothly. According to the prior personnel arrangements, 700 and 600 people were recruited respectively.

Colin has discussed with Vincent and Bill how to use these 1800 people. Fifty percent of them will be used to supplement the law enforcement force, and the remaining half will be separately filed and assigned to various industries in the Victoria Islands. They only need to transmit information to the law enforcement team at a regular basis and will not participate in direct law enforcement work.

At this point, Colin had to bear the pressure of paying salaries to 1800 non-staff members. For this purpose, Colin went to Uxu City and Gotford City separately and communicated in person with the heads of the Magician Council there. Half a year had passed in the whole process, and he finally sorted out the work tasks of the law enforcement team.

Colin had no idea about the other subordinate law enforcement teams. After a brief contact, they did not tell Colin too much, probably due to their own need for confidentiality. But Colin thought that they should have similar ideas to his own.

After the staff was fully staffed, Colin contacted Mario again, hoping to get the right to use the law enforcement team's exclusive airship as soon as possible. Mario apologized and said that he would have to wait for some time. Now the only ships flying in the sky are passenger ships, which are in short supply, so Colin asked him to wait for some time.

In desperation, Colin could only arrange to use secular ships first. Fortunately, the speed of secular ships was not too slow. Wizard Vincent's side was more on the land, so he basically did not need ships. He only needed to deal with his own side and Knight Bill's side.

When Colin was still preparing to buy a few more ships with his own money, Louis generously sponsored ten large ships to his great-aunt. Colin distributed them according to the configuration of 4 ships to Emerald Island, 4 ships to the Principality of Azure, and 2 ships to Vincent.

It took a full eight months from the time Colin joined the law enforcement team, to the time he came back to form non-staff personnel, to the time it officially started operating.

Neither the 12 official members nor the 100 alternate members are allowed to engage in commercial activities related to law enforcement, but the 1800 non-staff members are not included, which is also the tacit rule of the Grimman Security Affairs Branch.

Just like this, more than four months passed. Based on the situation on Vincent's side and Bill's side, Colin arranged for Locke to submit his first year's performance report to Mario. The content covered important matters in various regions and the crackdown on incidents involving black wizards who violated the mainland's ban.
