Leen nodded in agreement. "But we must remain vigilant and keep practicing to be the best. We must not let our guard down and be satisfied with the results we have achieved."Aaron nodded and looked at the soldiers who were moving back to their camp. "We must continue to improve and never stop learning. We must be ready to face every challenge and defeat our enemies with well-thought-out tactics and strategies."Leen added, "We must stay together, support each other and work together. Nothing is impossible if we unite and work hard."Aaron and Leen shook hands, signaling their good friendship and cooperation. They were both determined to make Shadow Legion a powerful and invincible army.***In the evening, another testing session took place. This time, the prospective soldiers were divided into hundreds of small groups. They would then be dispersed to three different forests to hunt orcs and bring back the heads of their kills to measure their hunting skills.The three forests were H
They made so many plans that night, that none of them slept.After the plans were finalized and confirmed, Aaron called Reginald and gave him a lot of tasks to do tomorrow."Are you okay with all these tasks, Reginald?" Aaron asked to make sure.Gulping, Reginald forced a smile before saying, "Of course not, master. I will endeavor to accomplish all of this well and meet your expectations.""That's good." Aaron smiled widely with a tired look. "I'll be leaving the castle for the day, so I'll leave all the business to you and Dariowyn as well.""Where do you want to go, master?" Reginald asked.Aaron shrugged his shoulders, before answering simply, "A walk in the city park and a little shopping."Leaving Reginald behind, Aaron then met Leen in his room."Leen, I want to get out of this game and leave the castle for the day. I've left the whole matter to Dariowyn and Reginald. You can also rest now."Leen frowned, curious about Aaron's reason for leaving Shadow Legion Castle."It seems
The maid immediately retorted, "Sir, he's just a lowly assistant. I'm worried that our clothes will be ruined by his dirty hands, so I forbid him from touching anything here. I had his employer come here and choose the clothes she wanted to buy in person, whereas this lowly servant doesn't have the qualifications to do that in our shop."Aaron thought that Frederick would scold his maid right then and there, but he was wrong."So, you're a servant? Oh, shit you just waste my time." Frederick asked sharply. The friendliness on his face simply disappeared.Aaron sighed in his heart. Frederick's attitude toward his servant was the same.Aaron remained calm and asked, "If I am indeed an assistant, why?""So you can't touch anything in my shop!" Frederick's tone rose. "Let your employer come here in person, I'll serve her gladly, but you go out of this shop and wait for us to finish."Aaron remained silent as he took out a black card from his wallet and showed it to Frederick's eyes."This
Shadow Legion Castle, Red Ginseng Town.Aaron received his troop training report from Dariowyn. He then nodded his head as the results were very satisfactory.Even according to Reginald's assessment, the Shadow Legion's abilities were above average when compared to similar troop groups. This way, they could subvert other groups despite the Shadow Legion's early age."In that case, expand the Shadow Legion's range of duties. Form a squad to accept mercenary missions even if they are not related to orcs. This way, we can truly maximize our profits," Aaron said."I understand, master," Reginald replied. "I will immediately create an assassin team according to your instructions."Aaron then added that the Shadow Legion could embark on small-scale missions."Help small villages that are under orc siege," Aaron said. "Don't go to other kingdoms, for now, we will center missions on the Falling Star Kingdom first. If possible, in the future Shadow Legion will establish branches in other kingd
On the way back, Aaron got so many notifications that his orc kill count kept growing by a staggering amount.Looking at the information bar that appeared in front of him, Aaron had gotten 1,000 orc kill counts despite doing nothing.All of that must have come from the orc hunting squads sent out one day ago. Yet, Aaron still didn't expect that they could eliminate so many orcs in such a relatively short time.When the sun was about to reveal its form in the far east, the three of them finally arrived at Red Ginseng Town."Don't go straight back to Shadow Legion Castle," Rong En said suddenly right after they passed through the town gate. "I just found out about a food market not too far from here. The merchants there are famous for selling large portions of food. Why don't we go there and buy breakfast?""Breakfast in large portions? I've never heard of that before," Dariowyn commented.Aaron could understand why the food in the market was sold in large portions. Red Ginseng Town wa
Dariowyn nodded in understanding, and then the two of them rushed out of the castle into the forest that bordered their territory.When they reached the edge of the forest, a dozen soldiers from Unit Class-1 were already waiting there. Aaron greeted them one by one and instructed them that their main objective was to protect Dariowyn and make sure he was safe during the hunt. The soldiers nodded and prepared themselves to start the hunt."I am very grateful for your help," Dariowyn said, smiling at the soldiers."There is nothing to say, my friend. We are ready to protect you," one of the soldiers replied kindly.After that, they immediately entered the forest and began searching for traces of the orcs that had plagued their territory in recent days. Dariowyn was eager to find his enemy, and the soldiers of Unit Class-1 deftly escorted him from different sides."Do you sense their presence, Dario?" asked Aaron as he looked around the forest."Yes, they must be nearby. Let's search fur
Martial Earth Online, from the very beginning of its creation, wanted to give players a very realistic feel. The developer and his team agreed to install a set of AI technology into the game.They then brought in the most advanced and cutting-edge AI that was not even made public because it was too dangerous. In doing so, they broke the rules, but the crime was always well hidden.Initially, things went very smoothly and satisfactorily. VRMMORPG players began to switch to Martial Earth Online as they felt it had a much more realistic feel than similar VRMMORPG games.Ratings increased sharply, making Martial Earth Online dominate the market very quickly time.However, the nature of AI is that it never stops growing.

"Heart-breakingly, I must make this decision," Dariowyn muttered to himself. "Now I must act quickly."Dariowyn summoned his entire army and gave the order to place all the explosives they had in every corner of the castle. He knew that this action would destroy the castle itself, but it was the only way to stop the A.I. Monster and ensure the safety of his troops.When all the explosives had been placed in all corners of the castle, Dariowyn gave his final order. "This is the time to risk our lives for victory. Prepare to face death, but never surrender."Dariowyn's troops prepared to make their final attack. As the A.I. Monsters approached, they set off explosives and detonated them at full power. The castle and all the A.I. Monsters inside were blown to pieces. Dariowyn's troops and Dariowyn himself died together in the destruction of the castle.Dariowyn felt very sad when he was stranded in the game's trash system, in the middle of his broken and abandoned castle. He regretted hi
