55: Chapter 55 Taking on the Role of Captain

"Oh my god! That guy's battle power is almost breaking ten thousand! It's more than double Brother Feng's!"

Ye Weiyang gasped and continued: "We're both around level twenty, so how can our battle power be so different? It's simply not on the same level."

Zhou Zhengguo sighed with emotion: "Exactly..."

"Putting talent and battle power aside, I've heard that his mechanics and understanding of the game are top-tier among the top-tier. Even in the novice stage, he was already capable of challenging opponents at higher levels."

"You might not have noticed, but on the Secret Realm Leaderboard, he is also one of the top ten players to clear it."

"Because his personal strength is so far ahead, he has basically unified all the factions, big and small, in this district."

"Plus, with the strong support from Brahma Star in reality, the Immortal Emperor's position in this district is unshakable. He possesses absolute authority, and that is what's truly terrifying."

Lin Feng listened and nodded thoughtfully.

He really was a terrifying guy.

Relying on his own strength, he made all the players in the district follow his lead.

With that kind of cohesion,

no wonder even a high-level boss like a Gold-tier one was taken down.

Over time, his equipment and battle power naturally far exceeded other players.

The crowd of players under him inevitably benefited as well.

It would be strange if their overall strength wasn't strong.

Conversely, on Blue Star, the major factions were constantly harming each other and engaging in internal friction.

They fought over territory and hogged leveling spots.

They didn't even hesitate to start guild wars.

Such things were commonplace.

Such a hostile environment also made it difficult for a large number of ordinary players to develop.

Comparing it like this, just between the local star systems alone, the comprehensive strength already had a world of difference.

Not to mention, districts with top-tier strength like Brahma Star were just an insignificant tip of the iceberg in the vast universe.

Since entering the God Realm, it was the first time Lin Feng felt pressure.

"Minister, how many players does War God Palace currently have in the God Realm?"

Zhou Zhengguo paused and said: "If we only count combat-class players, there are only a little over 300."

"What? The number is that small?"

Lin Feng was stunned, finding it hard to believe.

As the largest faction on Blue Star, the number of players should be enormous. He never expected there to be only three hundred combatants.

Zhou Zhengguo coughed: "War God Palace follows an elite path. We only recruit skilled experts and never accept useless trash."

"Then how do you explain this guy?" Lin Feng pointed at Ye Weiyang, who was still burying his head in his food nearby.

Zhou Zhengguo was stunned, then smiled bitterly: "Uh... he is an exception. Originally, based on his understanding of the game and practical mechanics, he was far from reaching the entry standard."

"But he just happened to be lucky and drew an SS-grade talent. He's the only one specially recruited."

Ye Weiyang heard this and didn't care at all, laughing: "Hehe, talent is the hard truth! Luck is also a part of strength; others can't be jealous of it."

Fine, I suppose you have some self-awareness.

"Since they are all elite players, how many of these 300 people are in the top 500 of the battle power rankings?" Lin Feng asked.

With such a confidential question asked, even Ye Weiyang, who was eating, stopped and looked over with curiosity.

"Hehe." Zhou Zhengguo smiled slightly, then was seen slowly extending one finger.

Ye Weiyang's eyes lit up, and he said in shock: "Holy crap, one hundred people? Are we really that strong?"

Lin Feng also nodded in surprise upon hearing this. As expected of War God Palace, this foundation and this strength were just different. No wonder they were a major faction.

Lin Feng was about to speak when Zhou Zhengguo interrupted: "Did I not express myself clearly, or did you misunderstand? It's not one hundred... it's ten. If I had one hundred players in the district's top 500, would I be worrying like a bitter melon every day?"

Lin Feng stared at him, his forehead covered in black lines. Come on, buddy... did you not learn how to express yourself happily between people? With so few people... how did you dare... to act so confident?

At this moment, the scene was silent, yet it seemed filled with laughter.

"Ahem." Zhou Zhengguo coughed dryly, breaking the silence first. "Little Feng, although our strength isn't very strong right now, don't we have you? I still have a lot of confidence in you."

After finishing, he didn't forget to... earnestly pat Lin Feng on the shoulder. In his words, one could hear a slight hint of passing the buck.

"Not bad, I also have a lot of confidence in Brother Feng..." Ye Weiyang nodded, expressing agreement.

"Fine, I'll do my best." Lin Feng smiled bitterly, having to accept this cruel reality.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhengguo immediately smiled, his hanging heart settling down a bit: With your words, I can finally feel much more at ease.

Lin Feng waved his hand and said: "Take people's money, resolve their disasters." I understand this principle. Since War God Palace is supporting me with all its strength, now that you've encountered difficulties, I will naturally do my utmost."

"I am very satisfied with this answer. Haha, I really didn't misjudge you!" After a hearty laugh, Zhou Zhengguo continued: "Since you are willing to step up, I won't say any more polite nonsense. From now on, you will assume the position of Captain of War God Palace in the God Realm. All commands will be arranged by you, and I will assist from the side."

"Okay." Lin Feng replied in a calm tone. He wasn't overly shocked.

Ye Weiyang, who was on the side, was greatly energized upon hearing this and quickly leaned in: "That's great! With Brother Feng as captain, we can walk sideways in this district from now on."

Zhou Zhengguo smiled with relief: "That is excellent. Next, I will pass down the order to have all the members under my command cooperate with your arrangements."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands. "Since we've reached this point, let me first introduce you to a few vice-captains. From now on, they will be your right-hand assistants."

As his voice fell, accompanied by the sound of footsteps, Lin Feng subconsciously looked towards the sound. He saw two women wearing long dresses walking slowly down from upstairs.

The woman in front had a pure and cute appearance, a slender figure, and was wearing a black princess dress, which made her look cute, giving people an urge to embrace and protect her.

As for the other one, her temperament was completely different. She was wearing a snow-white dress, with beautiful facial features and snow-white skin. Especially those long legs over a meter long were exceptionally eye-catching.

With just one glance, Lin Feng was instantly stunned, almost unable to help but cry out. Holy crap... they're both girls? And they're both top-tier beauties at that? This... this... how is he supposed to focus on playing the game in the future?

Looking at Lin Feng's stunned appearance, Zhou Zhengguo's face showed a smile: "These are two of the four newly promoted vice-captains who passed the layers of assessments of War God Palace. They will assist you in management and share the affairs in the game."

"Captain Feng, are you satisfied with these two vice-captains?"

"Hmm... not bad, quite satisfied. Since they were carefully selected by War God Palace, the beau... vice-captains' conditions are naturally impeccable."

"As for their actual combat abilities, I still need to observe them carefully."

Lin Feng nodded and replied expressionlessly. His tone was strictly business.

While the two were talking, the two women had walked to the hall and stopped in front of Lin Feng. They smiled and called out in unison: "Hello, Captain!" "Hello, Captain!"
