Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 941 - 382: The Four Heavenly Kings
The sky was gloomy over the park square of the Galagher Black Market, with light rain drizzling down.
The crowd here was bustling and eager, countless eyes were focused on the metal platform in the middle. Some were fervent, some expectant, some simply watching for fun, and others had different motives.
Qin Feng scanned the crowd, seeming quite satisfied with the attention-grabbing scene. He then leisurely began to speak, his voice low yet somehow amplified by a mechanical system that enabled everyone in the square to hear, with his demeanor showcased in 360 degrees by drones projecting holographic screens above.
"Well, everything that needed to be said has been said. Everyone might be curious; if it’s recruitment, shouldn’t you test the superpower index, then select based on the type of superpower, available resources, team, etc.? Why am I holding a superpower battle competition here instead?"
"It’s very simple."
Qin Feng’s gaze was sharp, carrying an aura of superiority. He swept his eyes over the leaders of a dozen large convoys under the rain canopy, then focused on the crowd on the square.
"Because what I need is not just superpower indexes, but reckless individuals unafraid to break the chains of fate with their flesh and blood, martyrs who engrave their mission to save into their bones, and night watchers who can stare into the abyss without being consumed by darkness."
"Look at our number one city wall, those compatriots wailing in the night, those children torn apart by Abnormal Bodies. They see us as prey, as trash—so I need a group of the strong to become the sharpest blade with me!"
"This battle is only open to those above the Destruction Level. Ultimately, I need to choose twelve Star Lords and four Heavenly Kings who will become my right hand. Furthermore, these people need to pass my final test!"
This declaration brought instant silence to the square, only for it to be followed by a wave of uproar moments later.
"What nonsense? Twelve Star Lords, four Heavenly Kings, has this guy read too many novels..."
"Is he serious?"
"But it does sound interesting, though the minimum requirement of above Destruction Level is too high."
"So he wants to recruit 16 people above Destruction Level??"
"That’s simply too insane."
"But what if he really manages to recruit them? Sixteen people at Destruction Level plus an Angel Level mechanical superpower, that team would be quite formidable, I feel like they could challenge S-Class!"
"It’s possible, some Destruction Level individuals registered online already, and with so many large convoys here now, he might actually recruit strong ones on the spot."
Qin Feng raised his hands, smiling and gesturing for everyone to quiet down, then calmly said
"I forgot to tell you about the benefits of my Infinite Alliance."
The crowd quieted upon hearing this.
"First, all convoy members receive two meals a day, including meat and standard protein blocks, 500ml of purified water daily, and all Vajra Level are equipped with industrial protective battle armor, all Frenzy Level with tactical power armor, with unlimited ammunition!"
"Second, each of the twelve Star Lords gets an independent living chamber, the latest interstellar-level power armor, command over a combat unit of ten thousand, and five Cold Dark Reagents weekly!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
"Third, for my four Heavenly Kings, codenamed Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, in addition to the above resources, they receive unlimited Cold Dark Reagents!"
Wow!
As soon as Qin Feng finished speaking, the whole place erupted into a frenzy, including the leaders of all large convoys like Lin Qingyu of the Dawn Watcher Alliance, Lei Zhen of the Common Alliance, Luo Heng the Wind Speaker, and Han Tiege the Fatty of All-Metal Frenzy, all had a change in expression.
"Did he just say unlimited supply of Cold Dark Reagents?" Han Tiege scratched his head, "Did I hear that wrong?"
"This guy is just full of crap." Lei Zhen looked on with disbelief.
Luo Heng looked incredulous, "According to this, he’s planning to recruit over 12,000 people for his convoy leaders, and each has to be equipped with industrial protective battle armor, with tactical power armor. Where’s he going to get all that?"
On Lin Xian’s side, many were also stunned by Qin Feng’s grandeur.
"Tens of thousands of battle armors, that’s enough to equip two Interstellar Army Fleets." Zhou Jin said coldly, looking at Lin Xian, "Captain Lin, can you assess whether this person truly has a Mechanical superpower?"
At this moment, Lin Xian said, "Captain Zhou, let’s go down and check, and I’ll take a look at that underground passage too, maybe we’ll make some other discoveries."
"I think so too. The original Star City had a powerful underground industrial system, not just for city sewage and energy pipelines but a deeper, military-strategic network. It’s certain the Federation utilized this underground strategic network when building the Star City Dungeon, and it’s definitely top secret." Zhou Jin said, "If possible, we might investigate infiltration from this angle."
Lin Xian agreed wholeheartedly, "That’s simple."
With that, the group began to move. Lin Xian put on a black mask, leading KIKI and several others into the crowd, squeezing toward the square’s interior. They communicated through encrypted devices, keeping an eye out for Federation members while observing Qin Feng. Lin Xian was also tasked with inspecting the large underground passage.
"Captain Lin." Jiang Yun signaled to Lin Xian; he and Ren Huixian moved toward the rain canopy of those large convoys. Being familiar faces, Jiang Yun had a good network, allowing him to scout while also gathering some information.
"Lin Xian, how do you plan to verify this Qin Feng? I always feel he doesn’t quite seem like a real Mechanical superpower." KIKI whispered over the communicator.
