Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” Chapter 657: Massive Submission Amount, Xie Tingfeng's Shock
Previously on Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”...
A staggering seven hundred million Dominator Artifacts, all submitted in one fell swoop!
The temporary special permissions activated, fast-tracking the review and verification process for Su Yuan.
The military's system immediately assessed the quality of the items, subsequently crediting Su Yuan with the corresponding funds and Merit Points.
It was crucial to note that reaching the rank of Frontline Senior Logistics Supervisor granted a ten percent Merit Point reward based on the mission's total value. Thus, Su Yuan was also bestowed with an immense quantity of Merit Points.
Su Yuan gazed at the astronomical figures of Chaos Jades and the boundless expanse of Merit Points, experiencing an overwhelming sense of exhilaration.
He was incredibly wealthy!
The count of Chaos Jades had soared to nineteen trillion Kalpa units!
As for Merit Points, they had reached an astonishing one point nine trillion Kalpa units!
With such a fortune, it was more than sufficient to sustain his cultivation journey for countless millennia.
On the other side.Xie Tingfeng stared, dumbfounded, at the backend records, utterly silenced by disbelief.
He, the esteemed Speaker of the Second Frontline, had witnessed many extraordinary events, yet this particular spectacle left him utterly astonished.
The previously immense logistical burden concerning Dominator Artifacts had instantaneously diminished by over half.
What had once been a mere six percent completion rate now stood at seventy-six percent; the vast majority of requirements had been met!
Furthermore, the critical factor was the exceptional quality of the Dominator Artifacts provided by Su Yuan, with each artifact being equivalent to two ordinary ones. These had essentially satisfied the military's demands.
"It's done!"
Xie Tingfeng's posture instantly became ramrod straight. Now, he could face the other Speakers with unwavering confidence!
This was an accomplishment of monumental significance!
However, his reaction was swift, and he immediately dispatched a communication to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan, still basking in his elation, received an unexpected message via his City Lord Seal.
【Come and see me!】
The sender's identity was unmistakably the Third Speaker, Xie Tingfeng.
Su Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and a fragment of his consciousness delved into the City Lord Seal.
In the ensuing moment, he found himself once again within that familiar expanse of stars, beholding the Third Speaker, Xie Tingfeng, and that imposing Stone Eagle.
The previous encounter had been amidst a multitude of City Lords, but this time, he was alone.
"Seven Stars pays his respects to the Third Speaker!"
Su Yuan offered a respectful bow.
The Third Speaker, Xie Tingfeng, spoke, his voice carrying a tone of admiration, "You... are truly impressive!"
"Thank you for your commendation, Speaker!" Su Yuan responded with a subtle smile.
"The quantity of Dominator Artifacts you've supplied surpasses all my expectations. I have no concern regarding the methods you employed. Since you place such profound trust in The Alliance, The Alliance shall reciprocate with utmost fairness!"
The Third Speaker paused in contemplation before continuing, "My command is presently in need of a Councilor to oversee logistics. I extend this offer to you; would you be amenable to accepting the position?"
As his words concluded, a surge of information flowed into Su Yuan's mind, elucidating the responsibilities and advantages associated with the Councilor role.
A Councilor was granted the privilege to attend critical frontline assemblies, possessed voting authority, and enjoyed a plethora of perks and benefits. The specific Logistics Councilor position offered by the Third Speaker conferred a status akin to a Logistics General, entrusting the management of the majority of the Second Frontline's logistical operations. This role was exceptionally pivotal and came with substantial rewards, typically reserved for the Speaker's most trusted inner circle.
And Su Yuan had only met the Third Speaker on this, their second meeting. For the Third Speaker to extend such a prestigious offer was an exceptionally magnanimous gesture.
Moreover, there was one significant detail: Speakers were ultimately elected from the ranks of Councilors. This implied that attaining Councilor status opened a pathway, offering the prospect of eventually becoming a Speaker.
Su Yuan inhaled deeply and declared, "I am profoundly honored by the Third Speaker's high regard. I, Seven Stars, willingly accept the role of Councilor under your esteemed command!"
"Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!"
The Third Speaker, Xie Tingfeng, beamed with pleasure. However, his expression then shifted to one of gravity. "Seven Stars, by achieving such a monumental contribution, you have undoubtedly become a formidable target for the Nothingness Dominators. It is highly probable they will initiate a sudden assault against you!"
"I urge you to proceed to the Second Frontline at your earliest convenience. Your safety will be significantly enhanced here! Remaining on the comparatively vulnerable Third Frontline presents an unacceptable level of danger."
Upon hearing this counsel, Su Yuan nodded. "I understand. I shall make my way to the Second Frontline as swiftly as possible!"
He possessed the capability to utilize his 【World Traveler】 trait for instantaneous relocation to the Second Frontline. However, doing so would inevitably reveal this potent life-saving ability.
Su Yuan had previously surmised that the capacity for traversing vast distances within the Nothingness was an exceedingly rare and, indeed, a remarkably difficult feat to accomplish.
The Merit Points Mall possessed the capability for item teleportation. Theoretically, it should also be able to transport Chaos Dominators, yet this function was never brought up, so Su Yuan did not voice his uncertainties. It was plausible that the Merit Points Mall was simply incapable of transporting living beings, despite all his Dominator Artifacts technically harboring life.
The most logical explanation was that a rule was in place to prevent the Scavengers from teleporting across the frontlines to the rear, rendering life transportation impossible.
"Hmm." Xie Tingfeng contemplated for a moment before stating, "It's too perilous for you to journey alone. I shall dispatch the Stone Eagle to accompany you. Furthermore, I am entrusting this treasure to your care!"
With a wave of his hand, Xie Tingfeng caused a lotus seed to materialize within Su Yuan's grasp.
Su Yuan gazed at the lotus seed with surprise, his face etched with confusion, but inwardly, he was profoundly astonished.
"This is a Chaos Void Lotus seed. Upon consuming it, you will attain a Void Body, which can withstand three assaults from the Seventy-Two Rank, and you can execute a random Void teleportation. Should you be attacked, this can preserve your life!"
Xie Tingfeng held Su Yuan in high esteem, not solely due to his contributions, but because Su Yuan's artifacting prowess alone was already exceptionally remarkable, meriting significant investment.
Su Yuan's expression conveyed excitement and thankfulness, yet his heart held even greater astonishment.
In reality, his Chaos True Name Great Dao proved genuinely useful for appraisals.
To this day, he hadn't encountered any other Chaos Dominator who cultivated the power of True Names. The True Name Great Dao represented a very specialized path.
However, he had connected with some "online friends" who also practiced the True Name Great Dao on the forums; their Dao foundations were significantly inferior to Su Yuan's. Su Yuan's foundation comprised forty-nine Dao foundations; it would be considered respectable if others possessed twenty-four.
The lotus seed, right before his eyes, was furnishing him with additional information.
"Very well, you may depart now!" Xie Tingfeng declared.
"Understood!"
Su Yuan vanished without a trace.
The Chaos Stone Eagle observed the location where Su Yuan had disappeared and inquired, "Why do you place such high value on him?"
"All those Dominator Artifacts were newly forged," Xie Tingfeng replied calmly.
The Chaos Stone Eagle, having maintained a nonchalant demeanor and not affording Su Yuan a proper glance throughout their interaction, instantly unfurled its wings and widened its stone eyes. "What do you imply?"
"Precisely as I stated," Xie Tingfeng chuckled softly.
"Impossible! This is utterly inconceivable!" The Chaos Stone Eagle vigorously shook its head. "Setting aside his forging skills, where could he have possibly acquired the materials?"
"From the orders!"
Xie Tingfeng extended a finger, bringing forth Su Yuan's Seven Stars Shop. The information displayed upon it was exceedingly clear.
"A grand total of thirty-five million orders—that is the origin of his materials. He has demonstrably minimized and efficiently utilized the resources, employing one batch of materials to create eight Dominator Artifacts. This indicates his forging ability has already surpassed the standard of a senior-level artifact crafter."
Xie Tingfeng stated with gravity, "He is undeniably a treasure for the entirety of the Chaos Alliance, even a pivotal figure in the Alliance's triumph against the Scavengers! My assigning you to escort him is not merely for the sake of a simple journey! I require you to guard him perpetually!"
