Holy Order—Keisha

[Ding: Spend 20 Gold Coins on a daily recruitment?]

The system prompt sounded.

"Recruit." Su Ye looked expectantly at the eighteen-winged Holy Angel statue before him.

Countless strands of Holy Light intertwined. The dazzling radiance was accompanied by the echoes of hymns as countless illusory little angels performed a ceremonial melody, and sacred praise reverberated through the hall.

Holy Light swirled and descended as twenty figures condensed within the hall, appearing before Su Ye to the melody of the hymns.

A War Blade appeared in Istar's hand. Lilith restrained herself well enough, though a trace of displeasure still showed on her face.

When the Holy Light dispersed, twenty angels clad in silver-white armor, with white wings and golden hair, knelt on one knee in unison.

"We greet our Lord!" Loyal, resolute voices rang out.

"Get up first." Su Ye looked at the twenty angels he had recruited.

The twenty angels rose from the ground. The leader gazed at Su Ye with fanatical devotion in her eyes, and also noticed Istar and Lilith behind him.

A pure white blade appeared in her hand.

Su Ye: ...

He had known that Holy Angels and Fallen Angels did not get along, but he had not expected this to happen the moment they met.

"Stop." Su Ye's voice rang out.

The black Primordial Darkness around Istar faded away, and she snorted coldly.

The Holy Power around the newly recruited angels also dissipated, and the pure white blade vanished.

Su Ye rubbed his brow and looked at the leading angel, checking her attributes.

Name: Keisha

Loyalty: 100

Level: Black Iron 1-Star

Rank: God Level

Troop Type: Holy Order—Keisha

Talent: Holy Order

Skill: Flame of Order

Divine Artifact: Sword of Order

Potential: Genesis (Crystal Palace bonus)

"Just as expected." Su Ye looked at Keisha's attribute panel. Compared to Istar, her initial attributes were practically the complete opposite.

Istar was pure Primordial Darkness, while Keisha was pure light.

Su Ye then looked at the other nineteen angels.

Name: Holy Angel

Loyalty: 100

Level: Black Iron 1-Star

Troop Type: Holy Angel

Talent: Holy Power

Skill: Fire of Judgment

Divine Artifact: Sword of Judgment

Potential: Main God (Crystal Palace bonus!)

"Uh?" Su Ye looked at the Holy Angel's description. They possessed absolute authority to judge creatures deemed evil. Was this the legendary logic of if I say you're evil, then you're evil?

"Keisha, this is Lilith, an Original Sin Fallen Angel. This is Istar, a Pureblood Fallen Angel. I don't think I need to tell you that you should already know," Su Ye said slowly as he looked at Keisha.

Keisha looked at Lilith and Istar. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded.

"This is Thalys. Pangilia is outside. I hope you can all get along. You are all the people I trust most, and I don't want to see you fighting among yourselves," Su Ye said solemnly.

Those words were meant for Keisha, but they were also meant for Lilith and Istar.

"Lord, your will is what we shall follow." Keisha knelt on one knee with a solemn expression.

"God Emperor, we will listen to you as well." Lilith smiled as she leaned against Su Ye's side.

Istar nodded as well.

The matter was settled. The Holy Angels had ultimately become part of Su Ye's forces. There was no use in opposing it, and Su Ye had already made himself clear: he did not want to see them fighting among themselves.

Therefore, no matter how unwelcome the Holy Angels were, both Lilith and Istar would put Su Ye's will first.

That was the benefit of fixed 100 Loyalty. Otherwise, even with 100 Loyalty, if it were not fixed, it would plummet wildly. After all, the most extreme troop types from two opposing factions had gathered together.

That was simply unimaginable.

"Istar, Lilith, Thalys, take Keisha to meet the others. Remember, no funny business. We'll hold a banquet tonight to welcome Pangilia and Keisha into our home," Su Ye said with a smile.

"Understood, God Emperor." Lilith agreed with a smile.

"Yes, my Lord!" Keisha said devoutly.

Istar said nothing, and Thalys remained expressionless.

Su Ye watched Keisha, Lilith, and the others leave, then took a deep breath. As long as they did not start fighting, it was fine. They could slowly adjust to living together in the future.

"I now have four Barracks under my command. Their troops can roughly be divided into four types: Fallen Angels, Holy Angels, Dragons, and Gene Praetorians. The Gene Praetorians are currently the weakest. It looks like Thalys and the others' matter of fusing genes needs to be moved up the schedule," Su Ye thought.

Among the four major troop types, the Gene Praetorians were undoubtedly the weakest. The strongest, for now, were the Dragons—more precisely, Pangilia and the Primordial Black Gold Dragon Legion under her command.

Although they were all Black Iron 1-Star, Pangilia was undoubtedly the strongest existence under Su Ye's command at the same level. Even Lilith and the others could not compare to her.

"More or less." After sorting out his thoughts, Su Ye opened his friends' Private Chat Panel and sent a message directly to Little Merchant.

[Otherworld Traveler: Please keep an eye out for any news about Seeds of Chaos and Holy Seeds. I want them just like Dark Seeds and Technology Seeds, as long as the price is right.]

Lin Xiaoxiao immediately replied after seeing Su Ye's message.

[Little Merchant: OK, boss. Leave it to me. At the latest, I should be able to find them for you within a few days.]

[Otherworld Traveler: Alright, I'll leave it to you.]

Su Ye closed the friends' Private Chat Panel and walked out of the Holy Temple.

What Su Ye did not know was that a massive uproar had erupted in the Chat Channel.

[Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit! Have you guys checked the Combat Power Ranking?]

[Damn, is that even a person? Is that really a person?]

[What happened?]

[No, did your house just get internet upstairs? That guy in first place shot straight from 100,000 combat power to 200,000. What kind of absurd nonsense is that?]

[The guy in first place must have a high-tier Technology Side Barracks. Otherwise, there's no way to explain such a surge in combat power.]

[It's confirmed. It has to be a high-tier Technology Side Barracks. Only the Technology Side can mass-produce huge amounts of weapons and equipment. That's the only reason combat power could rise so sharply. How could it possibly be from troop types?]

[What if it is? What if it really came from troop types?]

[Fuck, the stubborn idiot upstairs. What troop type could increase combat power by that much? My Saint Realm troop type is only so-so.]

[Holy shit, a Saint Realm troop type! I worship you, boss. Boss, take me with you!]

The Chat Channel instantly went off-topic.
