Red Leaf Star, manor villa study.
After the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's follow-up visit ended, Luo Feng, Thor, and Babata had been waiting for a reply.
Soon, half an hour passed.
"Received an email from the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company!" Babata's voice suddenly rang out.
Luo Feng sat up straight and quickly said, "Open the projection."
Thor, who was beside him, also looked solemn upon hearing this.
"Understood."
Babata's phantom nodded, then projected the email content.
Swish!
A light screen appeared, displaying a lot of text. Luo Feng and Thor memorized the content with just a glance.
After reading the email, Luo Feng forwarded it to Thor according to the content, and asked with some confusion, "Babata, what does the 'Teleport' at the end of the email mean?"
"Luo Feng, don't click 'Teleport', that's a one-time access pass."
Babata hurriedly called out, "It's obvious that the place Thor is going to be teleported to is similar to a private villa in reality, but the difference is that in the Virtual Universe, without entry permission, you can't enter private areas."
"The 'Teleport' button on the email, once clicked, will teleport you to a private area in the Virtual Universe, and it only works once!"
"Got it."
Luo Feng turned to Thor and said, "Second Brother, it's up to you now."
"Don't worry, what kind of big scene hasn't your Second Brother seen before?"
Thor smiled and nodded, his consciousness entered the Virtual Universe, then he clicked the 'Teleport' button, and space immediately shifted…
Virtual Universe, Myriad Creations Island.
Inside a magnificent palace near the Arcana Treasure Mountain Range.
Thor, in the form of a bald, white-robed figure, appeared in the center of the palace's vast hall. What met his eyes, besides the richly decorated palace, was…
…also a middle-aged man in white battle armor, with light green skin and long gray hair, sitting on a high throne, exuding a powerful oppressive aura.
The middle-aged man smiled when he saw Thor arrive and said, "I am King Swift Thunder."
…
Virtual Universe, Fire Cloud Island.
Inside a rather ordinary-looking palace, a tall, burly elephant-man Immortal sat on a throne, looking at the email information on the light screen with some surprise.
"King Swift Thunder actually personally summoned that little guy…"
The elephant-man Immortal was puzzled, "His Domain reached the fifth level at the Planetary Level, and he also took a Soul-Nourishing Potion to enhance his Law affinity. It's highly probable that he'll become a strong Immortal in the future, but that's all there is to it."
"Even if he's the first case of a Soul-Nourishing Potion taking effect in our Ganwu Branch, at most Marquis Weiling or Marquis Kulye would step forward. He shouldn't be worth King Swift Thunder, a Powerhouse of that caliber, personally summoning him, right?"
Puzzled he may be.
The elephant-man Immortal still had some thoughts. Since even King Swift Thunder thought highly of that little guy, he could also try to befriend him appropriately.
In case the other party really became a super strong Immortal, he could also benefit from it.
"Hmm? King Swift Thunder wants to summon me!"
The elephant-man Immortal suddenly looked serious, quickly stood up, and adjusted his emotions before transforming into a white light and teleporting away.
Meeting the highest person in charge of the Ganwu Branch, he couldn't afford to be careless!
It should be known that the various Advanced Universe Country branches of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company usually only have three department heads: Intelligence Department, Commercial Department, and Military Department. All three are Marquis-level Immortal.
Among them, the Military Department is only established in the 310 Advanced Universe Countries where the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company has ownership, controlling the military power of an Advanced Universe Country.
The Ganwu Universe Country is subordinate to the Virtual Universe Company, so the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Ganwu Branch only has an Intelligence Department and a Commercial Department, with Marquis Weiling and Marquis Kulye as their respective heads.
But… this is the normal situation!
Because the Ganwu Universe Country is where the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's headquarters is located, and it is also the origin of the special and powerful Royce Family.
Therefore, above the two department heads of the Ganwu Branch, there is also a King-level Immortal with a special status, who oversees the entire situation.
Only with a King-level Immortal of special status in charge can the situation in the Ganwu Universe Country be controlled; otherwise, many tasks of the Ganwu Branch cannot be carried out.
The previous King-level Immortal who was in charge of the Ganwu Universe Country was the special King White Thunder!
…
Red Leaf Star, manor villa study.
During the few minutes Thor had his eyes closed, his consciousness immersed in the Virtual Universe.
Luo Feng, sitting on the sofa, and Babata's phantom, floating in the air, occasionally looked at Thor.
Soon.
Thor's consciousness returned from the Virtual Universe, and he opened his eyes with a smile on his face.
"Second Brother, how was it?" Luo Feng quickly asked.
"Thor, which branch of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company are you an internal member of now?" Babata was also very curious.
"Very good, I am now a core member of the Azurewood Empire Branch of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company," Thor said with a smile.
"A core member of the Azurewood Empire Branch?" Luo Feng asked in surprise, "Isn't the Azurewood Empire Branch on Red Leaf Star?"
"Yes." Thor nodded gently.
"Didn't they say you'd be an internal member of a branch? How did you become a core member of the Azurewood Empire Branch?" Babata asked with a frown.
"I'm not quite sure. The person who summoned me was a powerful existence exuding terrifying pressure."
Thor shook his head slightly, then said with some emotion, "Even in the Virtual Universe, I could feel that lightning power that seemed capable of destroying people. That was definitely a super Powerhouse."
"He thought my talent was good and that I could directly become a core member of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Azurewood Branch. Later, I could pass a test to become a core member of the Ganwu Branch."
"So, Second Brother, you were promoted exceptionally."
Luo Feng continued, "Then other people whose Soul-Nourishing Potions took effect probably can only become internal members of intermediate universe country branches."
"That should be it." Thor nodded with a smile.
"Thor, the reason you could become a core member of the Azurewood Empire Branch is because your talent surpasses others at the same level."
Babata explained, "You're already at the fifth level of Domain at the Planetary Level. Perhaps you'll comprehend Law at the Stellar Rank. It's estimated that you could become a core member of the Ganwu Universe Country at that time."
"Also, from your description, the Powerhouse who summoned you exuded powerful pressure, so he's probably an Immortal."
Luo Feng and Thor nodded slightly.
They both knew of the existence of Immortals and that Immortals have eternal lifespans and terrifyingly strong power. It was normal for them to exude pressure in the Virtual Universe.
"What's the name of the Powerhouse who summoned you?"
Babata smiled mysteriously, "Perhaps if you say the name, I'll know his appearance and characteristics."
"He called himself King Swift Thunder," Thor replied.
"Thunder… King Swift Thunder!"
Babata's eyes widened, feeling incredibly surprised, "The one who summoned you was actually a King-level Immortal!" Luo Feng, seeing Babata's expression change drastically, couldn't help but ask, "Babata, what does King-level Immortal mean?"
Upon hearing this, Thor also looked at Babata with some curiosity, with a probing look in his eyes.
"Although Immortals have eternal lifespans, there are also differences in strength, generally divided into Military Lord Immortal, Marquis-level Immortal, and King-level Immortal."
Babata composed himself and explained, "Military Lord Immortal are ordinary Immortal, and also the most common Immortals in the Universe. Eight of your teacher's nine Immortal servants were Military Lord Immortal."
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng immediately recalled the nine Immortal corpses that still exuded a powerful aura even after fifty thousand years of their demise, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of shock.
"Babata, didn't you say that eight of Luo Feng's teacher's Immortal servants were Military Lord Immortal? What about the other one?" Thor asked curiously.
"The other one is called Marquis Iron Sword, who is a Marquis-level Immortal and also the strongest Immortal servant under Master."
Babata said proudly, "The reason Master was able to establish such a formidable reputation in the Ganwu Universe Country was because he Soul enslaved Marquis Iron Sword."
"So, Luo Feng, you must Cultivate well so that you won't tarnish Master's reputation in the future."
"Understood." Luo Feng nodded with some excitement, and asked curiously, "What is Master's strength?"
"Cough, your teacher, due to his proficiency in Soul illusion techniques, could barely reach the Marquis-level."
Babata coughed and explained, "However, your teacher had high aspirations and looked down on titles that were barely achieved, so he didn't take a Marquis title."
"Oh… I see." Luo Feng nodded repeatedly, thoughtfully.
Thor, on the side, smiled without speaking.
"Let's get back to the main topic."
Babata, seeing their expressions, changed the subject and said, "Every King-level Immortal is extremely powerful, and there aren't many in the entire Ganwu Universe Country."
"Thor, for you to be summoned by a King-level Immortal, it's clear that he values your talent and believes you have great hope of becoming a Powerhouse among the Immortal in the future."
"I think so too." Thor responded with a smile.
"Babata, do you know that King Swift Thunder?"
Luo Feng asked, "His Pinnacle title has 'Thunder' in it, does he want to take Second Brother as his Disciple?"
"How would I know?"
Babata, being asked this, helplessly explained, "King-level Immortal have their own circles. Your teacher only had Marquis-level strength, so he couldn't enter the circles of such Powerhouses."
Luo Feng nodded gently upon hearing this.
That's right, his teacher was only barely Marquis-level, not on the same level as a King-level Immortal, so it was normal for him not to have access to the King-level Immortal's circle.
"Babata, the 'King Molten Rock', the first Master of the Ganwu Universe Country that you mentioned before, is also a King-level Immortal?" Thor asked at this moment.
"That's right." Babata nodded, "King Molten Rock is a King-level Immortal, and he's a super Powerhouse among King-level Immortal."
Hearing this, Luo Feng couldn't help but shake his head.
Teacher Hu Yan Bo desperately wanted to receive guidance from King Molten Rock, even intending to take a risky path by establishing a connection with King Molten Rock through Marquis Azurewood.
But now he understood how far his teacher was from King Molten Rock. Even with his barely Marquis-level strength before his demise, it would be difficult to receive guidance from King Molten Rock.
Because Babata had said that King Molten Rock held an extremely high position in the Ganwu Universe Country and was a super Powerhouse among King-level Immortal. It was already very difficult to even meet such a Powerhouse, let alone receive guidance!
Luo Feng put his teacher's matter out of his mind and turned to Thor, asking, "Second Brother, when are you going to the Azurewood Empire Branch?"
"Three days later." Thor replied.
"I'll see you off in three days," Luo Feng said, "Then I'll go buy planetary defense facilities, reserve some Universe Level and Stellar Rank slaves, and then return to Earth."
"Third Brother, Earth is in your hands!"
Thor hesitated for a moment and then said, "Also, please help me look after Xiao Lei…"
"Second Brother, aren't you going to see her yourself?" Luo Feng asked in surprise.
"Just tell her that her Uncle Hong died in battle, and I'm going to become the pillar of Earth, so I won't let anything like Space Beasts threatening Earth happen again!"
Thor lowered his head slightly, "I told her I wouldn't let her suffer. This is my promise to her mother, and also to her."
"I will always love her, but I must protect her, I must protect Earth, so I have to leave. I hope she can understand."
"Second Brother, the Virtual Universe Network is everywhere."
Luo Feng, listening to such emotional words, couldn't help but remind him, "Even if you are on Red Leaf Star, countless light-years away from Earth, you can still meet in the Virtual Universe."
"Huh?" Thor looked up, a look of surprise and sudden realization on his face.
"Haha, I'm dying of laughter."
Babata, floating in the air as a phantom, held his stomach and laughed loudly, "Thor, you've been in the Virtual Universe before, how could you forget something like this?"
"Babata!" Luo Feng couldn't help but scold upon seeing this.
"Alright, I was wrong." Babata's face showed an apologetic expression.
"It's fine."
Thor smiled and shook his head, then turned to Luo Feng and said, "Third Brother, please take some Cultivation resources back for Xiao Lei. It's best if she can smoothly enter the Planetary Level, and even the Stellar Rank."
"No problem. I've already purchased a Nutrient Chamber. It's just a matter of buying more Nutrient Solution."
Luo Feng nodded in agreement, "This amount of money, compared to the money you don't want, is just a drop in the ocean."
"Thank you, Third Brother." Thor smiled and reached out, patting Luo Feng's shoulder.
"Second Brother, your joining the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company isn't just for yourself, it's also for protecting Earth."
Luo Feng laughed, "If Earth encounters big trouble and I can't solve it, I'll still need your help, Second Brother."
"Thor becoming a core member of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Azurewood Empire Branch, everyone knows his future prospects are limitless."
Babata said from the side, "If Thor makes another step or two in the future, perhaps solving ordinary Domain Lord and World Master issues will be a matter of a single sentence."
Hearing this, Thor smiled and shook his head.
He felt that Babata was exaggerating too much. No matter how talented a Genius was, they were still a Genius, not a true Powerhouse.
To solve ordinary Domain Lord and World Master issues with a single sentence, probably only super Geniuses with deep backgrounds could do that.
…
Three days later, in the early morning.
Red Leaf Star, Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company Azurewood Empire Branch.
In the highest magnificent building among the 'mountain'-shaped peaks, at the plaza in front of the gate, dozens of people had gathered, most of them wearing the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Advanced uniform.
This special sight surprised and shocked many people who came to the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company to shop.
Because among these dozens of people, there were not only Universe Level individuals, but also Domain Lord and World Master Powerhouses.
"What's the background of this new Genius?"
Jett stood beside a World Master, his peripheral vision sweeping over the people around him, "This welcoming scene is already no less than when I was welcomed."
Swish!
At this moment, a strong elephant-man individual suddenly appeared, wearing white battle armor, with grayish-white skin, over five meters tall, very muscular, and a nose like an elephant's.
"How did even an Immortal Powerhouse come!" Jett's eyes showed surprise upon seeing this.
