Chapter 587: Boundary Stone
The first is Haosen Yimogu, a level 70 Sergeant Major, representative of the Yimogu Family of the Ozil Empire; the Yimogu Family is also currently the largest power in the Council of Elders.
The second is named Defatandisi Cthulhu, a level 69 Sergeant Major, from the Seventh Art Republic; the Cthulhu Family's power within the Seventh Art Federation is also not to be underestimated.
The ones after that are not from the Arbitration; the Heavenly Ladder is generally a place where "scholars converse and no commoners come and go," and without resources, it is very difficult to enter the top ten no matter how strong one's strength is.
Li Hao found an acquaintance in the Zhuque Heavenly Ladder, Dasha Talan, a level 38 Sergeant of the Arbitration Anthem, ranked 98th.
Aoliweina, a level 45 Sergeant of the Arbitration Anthem, ranked 56th.
As long as they enter the top 100 list, Sergeants will receive varying degrees of support from the Star Alliance; regardless of the speed of improvement or future room for advancement, the boost is terrifying. In this regard, nobles and commoners are the same, though of course, nobles have more starting resources and it is much harder for the common class to enter; if it weren't for special help, it would be impossible for Dasha to enter the Heavenly Ladder in just a few short years.
Opening the combat tab and searching for the address of the Anthem Warrior Training Center of the Arbitration Anthem, Li Hao's heart surged; this isn't combat, it's practically seeing a huge patch of lush green vegetable fields. It's too late today; after class tomorrow, I'll have to go and learn a thing or two.
In the Arbitration Anthem, which is multi-civilization, multi-national, and complex in class, there are actually various chains of contempt. Of course, Li Hao is usually very low-key. Aoliweina has tried several times to get Kuta to join her circle; she could mobilize resources to raise Kuta's level as quickly as possible. Great nobles like them need the status of the Anthem even more to prove their excellence.
Of course, there are not a few like Kuta who want to lie flat, but unfortunately, he has a sister who spurs him on; Kuta spending all day mixing with Gaia, Li Hao, and the likes of the Insectoids is a pure waste of time.
Kuta is, of course, unhappy; that is what he finds most annoying. At home, there is no way around it, but once out, what he wants is freedom; how could he be controlled by Aoliweina again? There are a hundred excuses waiting every day. In any case, he just ignores Olivia; he would rather find a place to eat and drink with his brothers. Born in Rome, he knows very well how to enjoy life.
Gaia is still very diligent in training and doing tasks; he doesn't count as top-tier, but his resources are also very good. The surname Lastaya still has a lot of energy. Wearing this title, he will get more opportunities in Anthem tasks, and as his level rises, it will only get better and better. In the Shengge System, "surnames" and "families" are both invisible resources.
Gaia is different from Kuta; while his words are flowery, in reality, he has clear demands. To stand out among the young generation of numerous families, he must hand in a satisfactory answer; otherwise, after being marginalized, Youzi will be finished.
Gasimi is actually even more intense. As an Insectoid, whose integration with the other five of the six major civilizations is not considered good, and due to historical reasons, they were already not well-regarded. Therefore, their task is to gradually improve the prejudices other races have against Insectoids. Insectoids abroad often restrain their nature and some habits to adapt to the mainstream culture of the Celestials. Gasimi is like this; every Insectoid who walks out bears a responsibility.
Wuzang, Maxis, Cheng Konghai, and others have certainly experienced this process, but they all withstood the pressure. Becoming an Anthem Warrior is the first step to gaining respect, but only they themselves know the hardships within.
Everything they experienced on Kepler allows them to adapt to all of this very quickly. After all, having experienced life-and-death wars, those powerful civilizations and factions may be large and their status high, but these people have not necessarily experienced such arduous scenes.
Becoming an official Anthem Warrior means no longer being under the jurisdiction of the laws of various civilizations; anything that happens will be handed over to the Anthem for judgment, and one enjoys diplomatic immunity. Of course, at this stage, the status is lower, and in special circumstances, it also depends on the pressure, but after reaching the rank of Sergeant and above, the situation will be vastly different.
The class Li Hao is attending is Sociology of the Arbitration Anthem; the mentor bluntly pointed out this
The rise of humanity is a duty that cannot be shirked.
Perhaps it has been a few days; these irritable little cuties might be a bit irritable because they miss Li Hao.
Walanbeier is a Sergeant of over level 500. Of course, she can engage in some relatively relaxed management work here, and at the same time, she can obtain higher Anthem Merit. The arrangement by Mentor Carl is also very strange; to actually arrange for a Human to manage D26. This person too—this task can be described as having a lot of work, little pay, and being troublesome.
Yao-You and Huo-You are roughly the equivalent of Thursday and Saturday for Humans. As she approached, Walanbeier clearly felt a strong Spirit impact. These monsters have been very irritable for a period of time recently, even more irritable than in the past. She looked at Li Hao with some worry.
"Thank you, Senior Sister." Li Hao nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and pushed the mine cart toward the inside. As Li Hao approached, the D26 District, which had been screeching and wailing, gradually turned into whimpering, and before long, it became completely quiet.
Walanbeier......?
"Wow, big fatty, why have you gotten thin? Did you miss me? I'll give you an extra spoonful. You all better eat well; if anyone gets thin, I won't have it......" Li Hao swallowed his saliva while feeding them. Perhaps because it was too quiet, Walanbeier even heard this sound.
Could it be fear? But this doesn't quite look like fear.
Watching the high-spirited Li Hao, Walanbeier's purple eyes also flickered with curiosity, though she just thought it was strange.
When Li Hao finished his business and came out, he ran into Mentor Carl. It was clear he was waiting specifically for him. Carl looked at the situation inside and once again felt a rare sense of peace.
Comfortable.
With a kind and amiable smile on his face, "Li Hao, come twice a week from now on. Regarding the remuneration, it will be doubled. Although it is still not much, thank you for the contribution you have made to the Biological Research Center. In the future, when there is a need for missions, priority will be given to providing you with convenience. Young man, your future is limitless."
Looking at Li Hao, who was neither humble nor pushy and very polite, Carl's face instantly blossomed with a smile, "Sigh, seeing you, it's as if I've returned to the real Anthem of the past. At that time, everyone was full of enthusiasm. Come, let's add each other on Star Swift, it will be convenient to contact in the future."
After adding him, Carl patted Li Hao on the shoulder. He hadn't seen such a reliable person in several years. People nowadays are so fickle; apart from fame and fortune, there is nothing else.
"Mentor, if in the future I want to use the creatures inside for experiments, is that possible?"
"That shouldn't be a problem. Except for a few special ones that Lord Hayes needs to use, you can just apply to Walanbeier normally, and you can even get a 20% discount," Carl laughed.
Li Hao was very happy listening at first, but upon hearing the 20% discount, he subconsciously swallowed
his saliva. The prices in here are not something he can afford. Although Kepler has foreign exchange reserves, it is in a state of reconstruction, and there are more places that need money. It is already good that they can withstand the pressure; Li Hao does not intend to increase the burden on Romero.
He already knows that for the common people of the Star River Alliance, the Star River Universal Currency is hard currency, and it is also what low-level civilizations are most in need of, especially Humans. But Galaxy Coin cannot truly touch some non-sale items. In the Shengge System, the most solid currency in circulation is Anthem Merit; besides what is on the surface, private transactions are even more astonishing.
"Anthem Center"
This is a super building complex located in the core area of the Arbitration Anthem. Li Hao discovered that he was a fool; this is the liveliest place in the Anthem. The places where classes are held are all for local Primary Anthem Warriors and those from low-level civilizations; those who have accumulated to become Sergeants and Sergeants Major are almost all here.
This place is mainly divided into three parts:
Aoliweina's point of view is essentially correct; Kuta mixing with Li Hao and the others is a pure waste of time.
This place is similar to an EMP, but the technology is far superior. It is not virtual, but a powerful space network. Through the "Boundary Stone," one can truly link to the Boundary Stone for combat. There is a certain protection mechanism, but it is not 100%. Of course, malicious killing will not only be judged but will also be labeled with a "Red Name," which is also a very troublesome matter.
The Anthem Arbitration Center has two major functions: adjudicating disputes and certifying achievements. This includes the certification of combat ability and non-combat ability. If someone creates a new form of power or a new Heavenly Human Battle Technique, after obtaining certification here, they will be granted "naming rights," merit rewards, and bonuses based on the degree. The same applies to non-combat professions; contributions in technology can also obtain certification and substantial merit. At the same time, it possesses judgment and execution functions.
Being able to control a department in the Anthem and holding the position of a level 99 Sergeant Major, the committee members are all big shots in one aspect or another, and they have all killed their way up step by step. Wanting to become a General is more complicated.
