“For the Emperor!”
An aged and powerful voice echoed across the territory.
Ninety soldiers of the Armageddon Steel Legion simultaneously straightened their bodies.
The gazes behind each gas mask all fell upon the old man before them.
Old Bale Eye.
Sebastian Yarrick!
Even having crossed countless years.
Even having arrived in a completely unfamiliar world.
For these soldiers from Armageddon, this name still held unimaginable weight!
Leo stood not far away.
Also somewhat excited.
He raised his hand and clicked open Yarrick’s attribute panel.
A large amount of information immediately emerged.
[Hero: Sebastian Yarrick]
[Tier: 1]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Combat Power: 80,000]
[Skill: Steel Heart]
[When Yarrick takes fatal damage for the first time, he will not die.]
[He will stand back up after a few seconds and recover a certain percentage of health.]
[Old Bale Eye and the troops he leads are immune to psychic shock and will not feel fear.]
Leo’s eyes lit up.
This skill…
Is a bit overpowered.
The first instance of fatal damage directly negates death!
He can even stand back up and continue fighting!
Immediately following that.
The second skill expanded.
[Soul of Hades Hive City]
[The attack power of the Empire army led by Yarrick increases by 30%.]
[Stamina increases by 50%.]
“30% attack.”
“50% stamina.”
Leo couldn’t help but click his tongue.
This is no longer a question of whether Yarrick himself can fight well.
Rather, as long as he is placed into an army.
The entire troop will be directly elevated by a tier!
[Decisive Command]
[Yarrick possesses extremely rich command experience in large-scale warfare.]
[The morale of troops directly commanded by him is greatly increased.]
[When facing high-pressure, fearful, and desperate environments, they are less prone to chaos and routs.]
The final skill subsequently appeared.
[Ork Bane]
[Sebastian Yarrick himself and the units he leads deal 30% increased damage to Ork units and heroes, and attacks have a very high probability of causing a shock effect!]
4 skills.
No fancy tricks.
It’s all about raw stats!
All born for warfare!
In his past life, Leo only possessed an ordinary hero, and both skills were quite useless.
And now!
This is what you call a legendary hero!
4 powerful skills!
Providing a full 80,000 combat power!
He currently owns 80 Steel Legion Infantry.
10 Grenadiers.
All are Tier 1 ordinary units.
90 people.
Total combat power is 900.
Plus Yarrick—
[Current territory total combat power: 80,900!]
80,000 and 900!
Leo stared at this number.
Ding——!
A crisp notification suddenly sounded.
[Detected that a large number of lords have completed the novice stage!]
[Global Combat Power Ranking officially opened!]
[National Combat Power Ranking officially opened!]
[Rankings update in real-time!]
Leo raised an eyebrow.
“So fast?”
He directly clicked it open.
A huge blue leaderboard quickly unfolded.
[Global Combat Power Ranking]
[First Place: Leo]
[Combat Power: 80,900]
[Second Place: Kevin]
[Combat Power: 3,860]
[Third Place: Lein Shaw]
[Combat Power: 3,310]
[Fourth Place: Toru Yamamoto]
[Combat Power: 2,980]
[Fifth Place: Andrei]
[Combat Power: 2,750]
Leo’s gaze paused briefly on the second place.
3,860.
Looking at himself again.
80,900.
“…”
The gap seems a bit large.
Full 20-plus times!
And this is just the beginning!
More importantly.
The truly terrifying part of Yarrick was never those 80,000 points of personal combat power.
Rather—
Command!
Warfare experience!
And the reinforcement of the entire legion!
When he possesses 1,000 people in the future.
10,000 people.
Or even 100,000 people.
The enhancement brought by [Soul of Hades Hive City] will truly be terrifying!
Looking at the USA leaderboard again!
[First Place: Leo]
[Combat Power: 80,900]
[Second Place: Lein Shaw]
[Combat Power: 3,310]
…
Leo closed the leaderboard.
Without continuing to study it.
The leaderboard rewards were extremely generous, featuring a large amount of gold coins and an A-grade military building blueprint, but the settlement time was 30 days later!
In order to maintain the number 1 spot on both rankings.
Troops.
Were the foundation!
And wanting more troops.
Required more resources.
Leo looked back toward the wasteland.
Over 100 Ork corpses were being dragged back by the subjects.
In the distance.
The traces left behind when the Orks came were still very obvious.
Cluttered footprints.
Broken vegetation.
And the tracks trampled all the way along.
Leo squatted down and looked at them for a few moments.
Quickly making a judgment.
The enemies of the novice stage were not refreshed out of thin air.
This was Galaxy.
A frighteningly realistic world.
Since the ones who attacked just now were Orks.
That meant—
There must be an Ork gathering place nearby.
Most likely there was an Ork camp!
In his past life, after passing the novice stage, many players’ first reaction was to huddle in their territories to develop.
Logging.
Mining.
Recruiting soldiers.
Waiting for resources to slowly accumulate.
Leo would not do that.
What did an Ork camp mean?
Enemies.
Military achievements.
Resources.
And perhaps even treasure chests and building blueprints!
Rather than waiting for resources to be produced bit by bit.
It was better to go take them directly!
Leo stood up.
“Yarrick.”
The old man turned his head.
His crimson prosthetic eye looked over.
“Greetings, Lord Commander!”
Leo pointed in the direction from which the Orks had come.
“There should be more enemies over there.”
Yarrick clenched his power claw.
Leo smiled.
“Everyone, prepare.”
“Move out!”
Target—Ork camp!
…
Real world.
High Sea University.
Digital media classroom.
The class had just ended.
Dozens of students gathered in twos and threes.
What they discussed the most.
Was almost entirely Galaxy, which had just officially launched today.
By the window in the classroom.
4 exquisitely dressed girls were sitting together in a circle.
“It’s truly super realistic!”
“My boyfriend already went in to play this morning!”
Ruby, the leading girl, shook the smart terminal in her hand.
Her tone carried obvious boasting.
“He said all the wealthy people are playing this now.”
“And this game can even make money!”
The girls nearby instantly became interested.
“Did you buy a gaming pod too?”
“Of course.”
Ruby smiled.
“My boyfriend gave me Five thousand dollars.”
“It will be delivered this afternoon.”
“Five-Thousand?!”
Several people instantly grew envious.
“Your boyfriend is so generous!”
“Ruby, you’re so happy!”
In the corner.
A girl who hadn’t spoken much suddenly raised her head.
Leah.
Her eyes visibly lit up.
$5,000.
Gaming pod!
And you can make money!
Over the past 2 years.
In order to fit into Ruby’s circle.
Clothes.
Cosmetics.
Dinners.
Afternoon tea.
Whatever others bought, she would buy along with them.
No money?
Swipe the card!
Now her credit card was already in debt by nearly $12,000.
If this continued.
Something would go wrong sooner or later.
But if Galaxy could really make money…
She could completely go in and try it!
As for the $5,000 for the gaming pod.
Leah took out her phone.
The first person that came to mind was Leo.
Of course she couldn’t possibly go work a part-time job.
Tiring.
How much money could she make in a month?
Isn’t it just $5,000?
Leo delivers so many takeouts every day.
He definitely has money!
Thinking of this.
Leah’s expression turned somewhat ugly again.
That useless older brother.
Ever since mom and dad had their accident, he had no ability whatsoever.
Now even her living expenses required her to urge him every day!
This time, the money for the gaming pod.
He must give it!
Leah lowered her head and found Leo’s chat box.
Inside the chat box.
The dozen or so messages she had sent earlier still had no reply.
Leah’s expression instantly sank.
Her fingers tapped quickly again.
…
Meanwhile.
High Sea villa area.
Inside a standalone villa covering several thousand square meters.
The hatch of the gaming pod abruptly opened.
“Damn it!”
A young man cursed and sat up.
Donny.
The only son of Donald, the chairman of 1-Height Group.
“I spent so much money buying the top-tier gaming pod.”
“And it ends up giving me a D-grade barracks?”
The servant who had been waiting nearby hurriedly handed over a glass of red wine.
Donny took it and gulped it down in one go.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became.
D-grade!
At most it can only recruit Rank 3 troops!
People on the forums have already shown off B-grade ones.
And even A-grade ones!
Why?!
Donny directly slammed the cup onto the table.
“Call my dad!”
The servant was startled.
“Young Master?”
“Just say I’m planning to start a gaming company.”
Donny lay back down on the sofa.
“This game will definitely make money in the future!”
“Recruit people!”
“Acquire barracks!”
“Acquire resources!”
“I don’t believe this.”
Donny sneered.
“With the strength of our family.”
“Can we not dominate the entire server?”
