Chapter 556 Goals
Planet Kronic Beam Ring was held to a standstill.
At least, what was left of it after the bite.
The invasion started just like any other invasion with beasts riding their warships into this planet to raid it. This was shocking, the beasts had never revealed that they had warships of their own and could control them.
The warships were not the most shocking fact today though.
It was what followed after.
The true power of the Shelter Priest.
The moment of this powerful Beast Priest flexing his innate spatial control abilities would forever be etched in the mind of those who survived it.
After the first shake by the Beast Coalition in galactic space, powerful beasts like the Primate Priest, the Destruction Priest, and the Roaming Priest came into light and galactic space learned to fear their powers.
Not the Shelter Priest though.
This Beast Priest originally left the most impression by its sheer size.
And with it acting like its title, a shelter, most thought that this was his only ability and purpose until the invasion of Planet Kronic Beam Ring.
A quarter of Planet Kronic Beam Ring was lost today, it was stolen.
This was shocking.
This was unprecedented.
If before, even after the assassination of Planet Dunk the Beast Coalition seemed like a terrorist organization just riding on momentum and luck. After this, they truly established themselves as the villains of this era.
Duhkha struck fear into the hearts of his enemies again.
And he would do it again.
This was the first, but it would not be the last.
...
Planet Nak...
This was a medium planet in the territory of the Nak State, but it was by far the most luxurious and fortified, this was the capital planet of Nak State.
At this moment, inside a towering floating skyscraper in this planet.
This was the Presidential Villa of Nak State.
Inside, President Dunk looked at the projections around the military room with a horrified expression on his face.
The projection showed different planets, precisely 13 different planets and there were a lot of complicated charts under these projections.
"Damage report!" He ordered.
"Yes, Mr. President". The Chief Admiral nodded with a solemn look on his face as he looked at the projections.
"Planet Kronic Beam Ring is their main target; 2 Beast Priests were deployed at first and were later bolstered by more Beast Priests. They were not able to take the planet but they were able to cut off a quarter of its land".
"..." President Dunk could feel his hands shuddering.
That was billions of Galactic Credits in value!
"Planet Drulaethea was also targeted".
At this point, this Chief Admiral's cold face finally faltered, he showed anger and pain. "We lost a protector, Admiral Chin".
"..." President Dunk shuddered; he gritted his teeth. "Continue".
The Chief Admiral continued. "The Shelter Priest was preoccupied this time, they could not transport Planet Drulaethea the same way like they intended for Planet Kronic Beam Ring but all the ore reserves in the planet were emptied".
"Apart from the Admiral, we lost 8 Grade B defenders".
President Dunk clenched his fists.
Planet Drulaethea was the 3rd largest metal planet of the Nak Navy, and again, the resources lost was in the valuation of billions of Galactic Credits.
This was a lot of losses in just a single day.
The Chief Admiral continued. "Those were the only 2 planets attacked by Beast Priests, the others were attacked by the underling of the Beast Priests".
"Our forces were able to resist but the casualty rate is at the high side".
"Most of these planets are still embroiled in chaos but reinforcement is slowly arriving to stabilize the situation".
Chief Admiral Greg had a solemn look on his face as he looked on.
At this moment, the whole military council were quiet and in shock. They heard Admiral Zhao's warnings but they ignored it, relying on their experience as military leaders for decades which they got through hard work.
What they never expected was the different means of the Beasts.
This was no normal enemy or terrorist, they were entirely different.
Fear for the future gripped some of them for the first time.
President Dunk looked at Chief Admiral Greg. "What about the boy?"
"Legolas?"
"Yes".
"He aided in the defense of Planet Kronic Beam Ring. He also sent some of his forces to the other planets that he predicted to be attacked, they aided a lot in keeping the situation manageable till reinforcement arrived".
"Only 2 of planets that he predicted were not attacked".
"..." The military leaders took deep breaths.
This was too shocking, it seemed like the mercenary really had prophecy powers, it almost seemed like he was somehow a spy of the Beast Coalition.
The young Summoner now looked so much more mysterious to them.
President Dunk took a deep breath. "This is my order..."
...
Instantly after the speech of the Beast King, Legolas finally kickstarted some of his plans that he had been finetuning for the past 50 years.
Since transmigrating into this world, his future knowledge had always ben his unique advantage and he was determined to take even more advantage of it.
This was what pushed him to create a goal chart.
{Goals Chart:}
*Accurately predict the plans and events of the Beast Coalition in Nak State, planning towards intercepting them
*Stop the disaster of Planet Kronic Beam Ring
*Establish self as an indispensable part of the Beast Coalition resistance
*Get resources
*Create a complete Calamity Path
*Get more access to players and fatten them through the missions of the Beast Coalition
*(Get connections inside the Beast Coalition)
*Level up and become a Calamity Grade Super
After learning about the Star Radler from the seer Rabbit, Legolas' outlook on a lot of things changed. He no longer simply saw this world from the perspective of what was before him but from the perspective of his predecessors.
50 years ago, for the first time in a long while, he came really close to his goal of finding the truth behind his reincarnation.
Over the years, Legolas already changed so much that he was not even sure if he was as zealous and committed to finding the truth of his reincarnation again.
Time changed people; he was no exclusion.
Unlike in his previous world when players simply played the game, enjoying the storyline, not caring about abusing the game interface to level up without making the necessary sacrifices to true power, this time was different.
This time, Legolas actually lived in this world.
Seeing others do it the hard way, he was no longer content with the bare minimum efficiently given by the game interface, he wanted more.
This was why he trained so hard to establish and master his calamity path to amplify the advantage of efficiency that his game interface gave him.
At some point, he felt that his true goal in this world was now power.
'Without power, I can't achieve my goals'.
'Without power, I can never know the true mystery of reincarnation'.
'Without power, I can't meet my predecessors'.
'Maximus said that they need my help. Without power, there is no way that I will become competent enough to actually help them'.
'I am not even strong enough to know what they are fighting against'.
'This is why I can no longer stay idle'.
'I actually need to become really powerful now'.
All his goal charts all basked on Version 3 and the Calamity Grade.
After experimenting for months, his first goal was to accurately predict the actions of the Beast Coalition, hoping for no change in this storyline which would enable him to maximize the advantage of his future knowledge.
In this goal, his best plan was through Planet Kronic Beam Ring though.
Despite Planet Kronic Beam Ring being his main goal, he did not put all his balls in one basket as he also made preparations for other target planets.
He predicted that other planets would be attacked like it happened in his previous life, he warned the Nak Navy. He also did well to add some redundant planets, afterall, he could not afford to be too accurate with his prophecies.
Then, the Nak State may even grow to become wary of him.
He also prepared for some random planets to achieve an effect.
All these was because he wanted to establish himself as an important part of the resistance against the Beast Coalition. When the Nak State truly understood how pivotal his prophecies were, they would learn to cherish him.
All these were just to further his goal of getting more power.
Indebted to him, the Nak State won't hesitate much to give him resources which were the best things that he actually needed to grow his power.
He needed resources to upgrade the power of his beasts through mutation.
He needed resources to comprehend his calamity path faster.
A Super literally needed resources for everything related to increasing their power and this became even more prominent after the Grade B realm.
If Legolas did not have an OP resource as the experience points of the players, he would need even more resources to increase his level.
This was how hard it was to progress through the super ranks at the higher levels, the concepts involved already became complicated at that point.
Through these resources, if he could get inspiration to complete his calamity path and to also harvest the yield of his farm field in the form of the players, he would have everything that he needed to finally become a Calamity Grade.
At the Calamity Grade, Legolas would finally become a real powerhouse of galactic society, giving him access to a lot of previously hidden things.
One of these hidden things was the blueprint of the Star Radler.
This was his ultimate goal; he would plan everything else after that.
After achieving a part of his goals already, he took a deep breath and looked into the distance. 'Version 3 is no longer my priority'.
'It is just a springboard to my priority of becoming a Calamity Grade'.
He watched the destruction that befell Planet Kronic Beam Ring.
As recovery processes started even as Admiral Zhao kept on coordinating things while staying alert for any follow-up attack, he received a message.
BEEP!
{NEW! 1 Unread Message!}
{Sender: President Dunk}
