Chapter 517: 152. Large Documentary Legend - ’The Truly General Legend

"Give him a Gathering Qi Fist, and he could slaughter from the Erga Coast of the Red Arrow Empire all the way to Sky Ring’s Qiong’an Capital."

He was the number one Martial Artist of the Red Arrow Empire, Zhen#10752—True General.

"A true powerhouse disdains long IDs. Even if 10,752 people share the same name, they won’t feel embarrassed."

When True General was born, he was determined to participate in the "Starry Abyss" duel tournament. At the moment of his birth, the few remaining forests on Azure Star whispered his name: Zhen#10752, you are the chosen one, you are the only one.

At the age of one, he kicked open the Erga Sea, leading the Red Arrow and Frost Plated into a forty-year territorial dispute.

At two, he sealed Lord Entropy, becoming the first legend of Azure Star. At five, he conquered the capital of Sky Ring Country. When the samurai heard his name, they dared not fight him. At ten, he overpowered the former President of Frost Plating Federation, Madeleine, leading David Lyn to establish the Federation.

Former Azure Star’s top idol, Li Aozi, once said:

"When I saw Zhen#10752 walking towards me with a Gathering Qi Fist, I realized that my exploration of outer space was insignificant compared to True General’s Martial Way."

"I once had blind faith in science, but True General made me believe that there is no limit to the Martial Way."—Mechanical Specialist Du Zexin’s assessment.

Famous entrepreneur, N4, once said:

"It was upon seeing True General’s perfectly honed physique that I invented artificial muscles."

American Five-Star Colonel, MacArthur, once commented on True General: "If True General had been born in our timeline, even President Roosevelt would have to stand and pour him a drink."

Who exactly was True General? No one knew his real identity.

But everyone already knew that he was the master of the world, the undefeated champion of the Triangle Town Arena’s 100-match streak, a martial artist who could effortlessly use perfect Transforming Energy, the crusher of jawbones on Dongbai Street, and the lighter-biter, just because you are too beautiful.

The legendary documentary "Legend of the True General" continues broadcasting for you.

.........

The news of Li Aozi’s 100 undefeated wins spread rapidly. A flood of secondary creations followed.

The prior extensive marketing and the buzz gave him a temporary edge over all others, even catching the attention of the largest player media of "Starry Abyss," "StarNews," which reached out to arrange an interview.

This was Li Aozi’s old forte.

In the interview, Li Aozi demonstrated great poise, effortlessly handling the host’s tricky questions, showcasing an ’unintentional’ deep understanding of the game while highlighting his unique charm.

Compared to ’Li Aozi,’ ’True’ was more attractive to players. Li Aozi spoke plainly and humorously, occasionally throwing in lowbrow jokes, making him very relatable.

After the interview, Li Aozi’s forum fans soared. He immediately opened a live broadcast account, accepting paid questions and sponsorships, earning 100,000 point tickets in just one afternoon.

After all, what’s the highest praise for someone who plays a game well?

Wow, you play insanely well, must be cheating.

Not only did this ’clear’ his cheating allegations, but the successful promotion also converted many haters into neutral followers, reinforcing the new followers into loyal, paying fans.

Although Li Aozi spent a good amount hiring water armies for promotion, compared to his gains, it was negligible.

Unfortunately, players couldn’t transfer point tickets to NPCs. For now, Li Aozi could only save the 100,000-plus tickets to strengthen his player account.

Of course, having many fans also brought some troubles, such as the overwhelming number of friend requests, forcing him to turn off the friend option.

But not completely.

He set a threshold: 198 tickets to open friend slots, 648 for a national offline meetup, settled with point tickets only.

At first glance, it seemed ridiculous. Would anyone really spend money on friend slots? But with True General’s fan base of 123,000, even if only a thousandth paid, he would already profit.

Never underestimate small earnings; that’s how business thrives.

"Now it seems the mission of this small account is almost complete. After managing the Pathway a bit more, I’ll intentionally lose to an average mid-level Mutant. This will help reverse my main account’s reputation as well."

He had to admit, being a player was incredibly useful.

"Now that the important matters are done..."

Li Aozi raised his hand, summoning the "Blood of Eternity" through the Pathway structure.

Two days earlier, he had already collected the Source of Arcane Energy through his player identity with the "Sovereign" knowledge from "Super Genic Tracking."

Even though his real body couldn’t learn it, he had memorized the contents using his player’s body.

Looking at the purple tumor growing in his palm, Li Aozi nodded:

"Now, it’s time to take care of some personal matters."

After informing his family, Li Aozi made a phone call to a familiar contact.

"Ms. N4, hello, Mr. Aozi has already discussed with you."

"Yes, I need your company’s transportation and manpower."

"Thank you very much. I will put in a good word for you with Mr. Aozi."

He then switched back to his real body, standing by the window.

Relaxing his body and mind, he felt quietly.

Blocking out all except for the "Blood of Eternity," Li Aozi sensed the source of this Arcane Energy.

Using the unique Echo Force of an Echoer, he could sense souls across interstellar distances, reaching Azure Star.

Diffuse, diffuse.

The essence of Sequential Arcane Energy is the world’s permission. Each person’s Arcane Energy also represents their soul. Tracing it back can lead to the soul’s location.

Nomi Anderson Guesette’s soul was special because she was killed by a Plunder of Azure Star. Her soul was divided as a gift.

Therefore, half of her remained in Jane Neriya’s body, while the other half floated around or rested in some Plunder’s hands on Azure Star.

But because of this, she was incredibly distinct. The evenly split nature made her soul easily distinguishable from others.

Li Aozi searched carefully, exhausting his spiritual power, even using potions. He was well-prepared with enough magic potions to explore every inch of Azure Star using Echo Force.

One day passed.

Two days.

Three days.

’True’ General’s hype gradually faded. The game returned to its former state; players reached the level cap, started refining their skills, accumulating equipment advantages, optimizing their tactical systems, or completing previously challenging side quests.

Players on Baizhu Star began constructing new areas in the Goblin’s lair, while Caramel Snail and Cumin Powder were troubled by the tasks received from Miss Yawen, unsure how to proceed.

A week passed.

A month...

......

.........

.........

Azure Star, four months and seven days later, Erga rural farm.

"Frost Plating Federation’s David Lyn plans to visit the Empire. Crown Prince Rudolf will personally oversee the reception. Ah, it seems like Frost Plated is about to become our ally."

Isaac’s father, Franz, watched the news while sipping coffee:

"This is the second visit this year. David Lyn is truly a savvy man."

His mother, Lena, placed the bacon and bread on the table, giving her husband a look:

"Alright, you’re a grown man still obsessed with grand narratives. Go call the kids for breakfast."

"Don’t worry, they’ll come down on their own drawn by the smell. They’ve always been like this." Franz was engrossed in his short videos: "Hey, look at this cheap pet food. We can buy it for Huhu."

"But it’s a cat!" Lena retorted.

"Meow... Huhu..." The cat, Huhu, came down from upstairs, jumped on the sofa, stretched, and started napping again.

Thump, thump.

Footsteps echoed from the stairway.

The mother, being the most sensitive, immediately looked towards the stairs and smiled:

"Oh? Son, you’re awake. Come have breakfast!"

"Sorry, Mom, I have to go out today."

Li Aozi straightened his tie, fully dressed in a suit, with a watch on his left wrist.

Lena saw his attire and didn’t say much, but asked, "Do you have to leave now? At least have breakfast. Skipping it can lead to kidney stones."

"Someone has been waiting too long. I can’t make her wait through breakfast."

He gave an apologetic smile to his mother:

"When I return, please make a grand meal for two."

Lena said nothing more, stepping forward to smooth out the creases on his suit and carefully adjusting his collar.

"Whenever you go out to meet someone, you should always present your best self."

Franz also put down his coffee cup, giving him a thumbs up:

"Good luck with your date."

Li Aozi nodded.

"This isn’t a date, it’s... a reunion."

————————————

The "Shemiao" armored train sped through, cutting across the snowy plains, heading deep into the Outer World.

Conductor Clavici took a drag on his cigarette and looked at the train’s only passenger:

"If you are not favored by the world, don’t come to the Outer World. If you are not favored by the Outer World, don’t come to Dongyue Ridge."

"What do you mean?" the passenger in a hood asked.

Clavici muttered:

"This place is rotten. Even in the Outer World, there are areas with abundant geothermal energy where one can avoid the harsh elements and establish settlements. But Dongyue Ridge almost lacks this; it’s the trench of human morality, the wildest of the wild. The humans here have mutated, losing their humanity entirely, becoming mere monstrous shells."

"Even in the Outer World, many have mutated due to Four Nations’ careless radiation disposal," the passenger casually said. "Everywhere you find mutants, those with three legs or four eyes are considered lucky. Most mutations happen in infants, who are born with leukemia and die within three days."

"No, this place is especially different."
