Chapter 575: Chapter 357: Organizational Structure (4K)_2
"Note: The current displacement range is 3.36 kilometers (dependent on spiritual power); as Sophia's rank increases, the quantity of Lifebound Black Feathers can also increase."
"Ability ③: In a night environment, the displacement ranges and effects of Ability ① and Ability ② double."
Sophia's Hero's Exclusive Weapon seems a bit preposterous.
Especially when it comes to saving her life.
"Sophia's true self can swap places with her incarnations at any time and in any place, basically meaning she can teleport about 3.36 kilometers in a thought. If she positions all three of her incarnations in the right places, she could switch positions almost instantly, covering ten kilometers."
"Moreover, under the cover of night, the extreme distance Sophia can shift doubles, which is roughly twenty kilometers! And in the environment of Black Crow... No matter when or where, it's always a night environment for Sophia, granting her this amplified blessing at all times."
This truly is a weapon tailor-made for her!
Otherwise, in the Eternal World where days are long and nights short, the duration of darkness is not lengthy.
With such a displacement ability, coupled with her ability to conceal herself, even if targeted by multiple characters from the Legendary Realm, Sophia can easily escape.
He had previously intended to send Sophia deep into the wilderness to probe into the situation of Fang of the Jackal Wolf and gather information on enemy characters from the Legendary Realm. He was just a bit worried about her safety—after all, when it comes to running away, Sophia is far from being as good as Jun.
Now, with the Crown of Night in her possession, safety is no longer an issue.
At this moment, Sophia is studying her exclusive weapon closely.
With a thought, a black feather floats out from the Crown of Night. Then the black feather splits into two, two into three, and three into countless others. Countless black feathers flutter and disperse, revealing a girl with bright eyes and white teeth, wearing black but without the crown.
She stands next to the original Sophia, looking like the reflection in a mirror.
"Good morning, boss~"
After spending a day understanding the situation and circumstances of the territory, Sophia had no doubts about her new role assigned by the boss.
This is a weighty trust indeed!
The boss had said the intelligence agency was among the top three most important departments throughout the entire territory.
The future of this department now lies in her hands.
Although the entire intelligence agency consists only of her, Sophia, a commanding officer without even a name to the organization yet, this does not impede matters. When she went to Lanxing to establish a company, wasn't it also all on her to recruit staff?
Starting from scratch is something she's very skilled at.
"Let's start with our territory and filter out the qualified talents."
Sophia sends numerous Black Crows flying towards various locations within the Tianyuan Territory.
…
After handing over the responsibilities to establish the intelligence agency and to explore the north to Sophia, Mu Yuan no longer paid attention to it.
As for her reliability, Sophia was second only to Dead Bone and Isloa, so there really was no need for any reminders.
A few hours later,
"Prompt: Your hero Sophia has consumed 1500g of Soul Sand to job-change the Territory Citizen 'Gray Blade' into a Night Raven Servant."
"Prompt: Your hero Sophia has consumed 1500g of Soul Sand to job-change the Territory Citizen 'Rose' into a Night Raven Servant."
"Prompt: …"
In South City of Tianyuan Territory, within the newly established headquarters of the intelligence agency,
a dozen seductive or ferocious men and women look joyfully at the power surging over their bodies.
They are the first batch of Night Raven Servants selected by Sophia.
And also the most fitting and outstanding batch.
Most of these individuals are not from ordinary backgrounds.
Gray Blade is one of them.
He is a first-rank Peak Strongman who once acted as a dark hand for a big shot in a certain city, but as the city fell, everything turned to smoke and dust.
He came to this city called Tianyuan in a daze, becoming an ordinary Territory Citizen here.
Gray Blade used to be quite a master, his notorious reputation making many minor nobles shudder, and of course, he was not content with being just an ordinary Territory Citizen in Tianyuan Territory.
He wanted to climb to the peak, step by step!
But the Lord's troops weren't recruiting soldiers, and his self-nominations failed. Later, he heard that the security team was hiring people with rather decent benefits, so Gray Blade went to apply.
However, despite his notable strength giving him an advantage in the security team's assessment, he still failed to pass the interview.
[Interview question: If Territory Citizen A beats up Territory Citizen B without any reason, causing minor injuries, how should the incident be handled?]
[Gray Blade: Reply, killed the little armor.]
To this day, Gray Blade still can't figure out how he failed the assessment.
Was it intentional discrimination by the examiner?
He became extremely angry but didn't dare to ask, after all, the head of the security team who interviewed them was a two-star peak strongman.
Latter on, Gray Blade found a fairly well-paid job—bolting in a factory. With his hand speed, accuracy, and endurance far surpassing the average person, he earned a decent wage and lived quite comfortably, but he wasn't satisfied.
He had more than enough money to live lavishly, but it was insufficient to improve his strength.
Until today, when a Black Crow flew before him, asking if he wanted to gain power, if he wanted to advance further.
Gray Blade came.
"This... this is power! What immense power!"
Even though he was still at the one-star peak, he could clearly feel his strength, speed, and spiritual power had all significantly increased, and he even awakened several new skills out of the blue.
Such great force!
He looked ahead, towards the figure shrouded in a black cloak, indiscernible in appearance or form, kneeling on one knee, offering the most thorough loyalty.
In the crowd, Rose was also a one-star peak 'little master.'
She originated from an assassin organization, mastering various assassination techniques.
But she knew well the limits of assassination skills. As an ordinary Three-star 'assassin,' even if she refined her skills to the peak, she could at most assassinate a two-star strongman.
In Tianyuan City, there were always stronger people. Even within the so-called 'third line troops' and 'Militia,' there were many stronger than her.
Not to mention, above the security forces were the Defensive Troops and Patrol Troops. And above the Defensive Troops were the main forces.
Rose understood deeply that the life of an assassin had limits.
So, she had her second job class change today.
Night Raven Servant!
A noble Rare Three-star job class!
Of course, the price was a vow of unwavering loyalty to the Lord, executing missions for the territory. She didn't mind. She was an assassin who acted on orders, a knife to be stabbed wherever needed.
Sophia, shrouded in a black cloak, not a trace of her face showing, scanned her first batch of trusted followers with threads of her gaze.
After all, the department had changed.
Intelligence personnel must hide in darkness, naturally, as the head of the organization, she needed to conceal her identity even more, becoming a hunter in the shadows, a night strongman who hunts the darkness.
…That's what they said in the novels and anime she watched.
A deep, neutral voice came from beneath her hood.
"I have bestowed upon you power; now is the time for the hunt of the night."
"Do not disappoint me, do not disappoint the Lord."
"If you perform exceptionally well, in the future, you may receive even more power."
"Go forth, let the name of the night resound across the land."
Gray Blade, Rose, and the other newly appointed Night Raven Servants all eagerly gobbled up this promise.
Because this promise was tangible and within reach.
As long as they worked hard, a bright future awaited them. After all, their territory was one watched over by a Giant Dragon.
Whoosh~
A slender blue Giant Dragon flew over the territory, garnering countless awed and reverent gazes.
Working dragon Long Difu slightly raised her neck, circling the South District twice and a half before descending with anticipation onto the Ice Heart Lotus Platform, the evolution ground.
She harbored no doubt about the Lord's Great Force.
She had witnessed how her contemporary dragon Uta climbed step by step to the peak.
Of course, Uta was too hardworking; Difu admitted she couldn't do that, truly couldn't, as fighting was too tough for a dragon. Thankfully, the Lord showed mercy, allowing her to avoid the front line, earning the glory to bask in by working and contributing as an 007.
Today, Difu enjoyed the radiance of the baptism for the first time.
