Chapter 645 Gathering resources [2]
2 years after the Azure auction…
The Nightmare mercenary group under the banner of the Straw Hat Pirates welcomed their first Calamity Grade Super.
After decades of working towards it, Blade became the first among Legolas' 2 students to achieve apotheosis, becoming a Calamity Grade.
This achievement pushed Christensen and Uranus to work even harder.
While all these happened, Legolas went one step closer to his goal each time as they kept on stealing, robbing, and buying the resources that he needed.
It was already more than 3 years since Version 3 came to an end.
And finally, the new update was scheduled.
Legolas had doubts though. 'I wonder what Version 4 is'.
'In my previous life, it's the version called the Psychic Revolution but with my interventions so far and my future plans, I doubt it'll follow that same route'.
'Gaufrid was a major player of the Psychic Revolution but he's dead'.
'Besides, even if Gaufrid didn't die, I have no intentions of letting things go according to history'.
'Now, I'm the new Gigachad of this era'.
'It's up to me to change history'.
'Well, I'll rewrite history, it sounds better that way'.
'Besides, the break before Version 4 in my previous life lasted 100 years. If it's the same in this world, I doubt the players will get to see me anymore'.
'According to the seer, he said Maximus left this reality after getting to the peak of power'.
'Who knows? Maybe I'll experience the same thing'.
'I don't know though; I'll just take it as it comes'.

Like it happened years ago, all the players disappeared out of the game after an exciting Version 3 involving the Beast Coalition where for the 3rd time, Legolas the NPC took centerstage, deciding the outcome.
By now, Legolas was already a legendary figure to the players.
The players left but Legolas was not starved. They only left after he did his best to suck them as much as possible of their experience points.
Life moved on after the players.

Legolas' combat power and overall power level improved steadily.
With the absence of the players, he finally started taking on different missions. Getting experience points as a villain was the easiest way in Dominator.
As the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, he farmed XP like its importance was as oxygen to a normal human.
On that schedule while still finding resources, time passed.
…
3 years later, Legolas became a Grade A+ Super.
That same year that he made the achievement, Uranus finally made the big jump, becoming the next Calamity Grade Super of the Nightmare mercenary group.
Sonia made the jump 2 years later alongside Christensen.
6 more years later, Nagana also made the big jump to become the newest Calamity Grade Super of the Nightmare mercenary group.
Now, alongside Legolas and not adding the Calamity Grades of the Straw Hat Pirates, the Nightmare mercenary group now had 6 Calamity Grades.
Alongside the Straw Hat Pirates, they were a force to be reckoned with.
From the Gundogan Star Cluster, Legolas soon graduated to multiple Star Clusters as the Straw Hats' reputation became even more notorious.
All the while, he kept on proving his incredible battle strength in battle, defeating some highly renowned and formidable Calamity Grades to the extent that he got his first recruitment message from a true powerhouse organization.
BEEP!
[NEW! 1 Unread Message!]
[Sender: Black Agent of the A.Z]
At the end of the A.Z, there was the symbol of a Tiger standing amid an ocean of flames. Most people won't recognize the symbol but Legolas did.
This was the symbol representing the dark side of the Azure Pantheon.
The contents of the message?
It was an acknowledgement message that the Azure Pantheon respected his strength and were willing to recruit him.
If he accepted, he would be groomed to become a powerful Beyond Grade A that would fight on behalf of the Azure Pantheon in the future.
If he refused, the strongest Grade A+ Assassins of the Azure Pantheon will be sent after him to get his head and use him as an example.
Legolas' reaction to the message?
"Hehe, bring it on!"
"I was beginning to run out of sparing partners".
3 deadly assassins were secretly sent after him across the period of the next 5 years as he never replied the message which indicated his rejection.
Each time that the assassins came, Legolas was pushed to an edge due to the unconventional abilities of the assassins but each time, he annihilated them once he figured them out.
After the 5th assassin death, the Azure Pantheon admitted defeat.
They didn't have that many Calamity Grade Assassins to send to the grave, Legolas became labelled as a special grade outlaw, a rare breed of outlaws that even Universal Civilizations needed to treat with caution.
All the while, Legolas kept up his objective of gathering resources.
By now, more than 80% of the resources needed to repair the Star Radler were already gathered. The others were incredibly rare and immense danger was involved to get them; his momentum finally slowed down.
It was at this moment that Legolas changed his priorities.
He focused on only his strength.
This was when he also sought Lucky out after so many years. Entering the floating planet of the Illusion Emperor, Legolas spoke with Lucky's master.
Under Lucky's urging, the Illusion Emperor consented as Legolas received an opportunity to improve his strength even further there before he finally left with his first beast companion since reincarnating into the world of Dominator.
Alongside Lucky, Legolas kept on seeking more power.
…
A long time later…
By now, it was already 30 years since the update for Version 4 was scheduled and finally, after singlehandedly killing a Grade A+ Space Whale for the first time, Legolas finally got the required momentum to upgrade his existence.
