Chapter 435 - - 422 Comes from off-site targeting _1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

Duge piloted the Chariot of the Solar God, taking Nobb high into the sky, and asked, “Nobb, which planet are you from?”

Nobb leaned forward, reverent and respectful: “Lanchen Star.”

Lanchen Star?

Duge thought for a moment and asked, “Do you know Ma Tianshui?”

Ma Tianshui was the lucky individual from Lanchen Star when Duge first participated in the Alien Battlefield and resources were evenly distributed.

At that time, Duge had originally planned to allow ten planets to each take a spot in the ranking.

However, due to Lao Mi’s reconnaissance skills, he squeezed out the person from Labot Star who was in tenth place.

With Duge’s memory, he would never forget those he had shared experiences with since all of them were people he had helped. They would all harbor goodwill towards him, and could one day become his partners in rebellion against Pan-Universe Entertainment.

“I know him.” Nobb looked at Duge, his heart thudding heavily. Had his premonition come true? Yet, in his heart, he still clung to a sliver of hope as he said tremulously, “Seven six seven seven.”

“Is that a code for your planet?” Duge glanced back at him, shook his head, and said, “I’m not from Lanchen Star.”

It really was him! Nobb looked at Duge, his voice trembling as he asked, “You… You are Wang Chong who experienced the same Alien Battlefield with Senior Ma Tianshui?”

“Correct, it’s me.” Duge smiled and asked, “Is Ma Tianshui doing well?”

“He’s doing very well. Due to his age, Senior Ma has already retired and now serves as an auditor on Lanchen Star, responsible for screening newcomers.” Nobb replied to every question, his mind completely bewildered at this point.

Wang Chong is Duge, Leng Shi is Duge, Holley is Duge…

Tops in every event.

Who exactly is Duge?

Is he the illegitimate child of the boss of Pan-Cosmic Entertainment Company?

However, now that Nobb was certain Wang Chong was also Duge, his anxious heart calmed slightly.

After all, with the example set by the planet seniors, as long as one earnestly cooperates with Duge, he is genuinely willing to share resources.

One could say that Duge, by his own power, had broken down the suspicions between planets.

Of course.

But that only applies to Duge. If it were anyone else from Qiyuan Star, Nobb wouldn’t dare to truly trust them.

But the likelihood of someone impersonating Duge was too low. Whether it was Wang Chong, Leng Shi, or the Holley before him, only he could have gained such an advantage early on.

Who would dare to impersonate Duge without brilliant achievements, and who could?

Gulp!

Nobb swallowed hard, then looked again at Duge in front of him, his palms sweaty with anticipation. Had he struck it rich?

“Senior Duge, Senior Ma has always held you in high regard. Before going into battle, he instructed us to treat you as one of our own and to follow your orders,” Nobb said, trying timidly to ingratiate himself.

“What if I were just an obscure nobody who hadn’t achieved such greatness?” Duge teased.

“If that were the case, I guess you wouldn’t reveal your own name,” Nobb scratched his head and said, “Duge’s name represents trust, but it also means risk. There are many who do not wish to see you rise. Your previous performance in the battlefield was too ferocious. Letting you take first place means more people will perish, and besides, the allure of the resources for first place is too tempting; many people do not want the resources to be continuously dominated by Qiyuan Star…”

“That’s also true.” Duge laughed, as the resources from Pan-Universe Entertainment would not be distributed until the next fiscal year. Most people from other planets had yet to benefit from his help, and the ‘Doctor’s Benevolence’ skill had not yet truly taken effect.

“Nobb, what’s your keyword?” Duge asked.

“Dependence,” Nobb said sheepishly, “It’s not a keyword that makes it easy to excel. While depending on the Pope, my attributes increased quite a bit, my ranking is now 83, but I haven’t awakened any advanced skills.”

Dependence: reliance, subordination, attachment…

Duge went over the usage of the keyword in his mind, and with this keyword, he would most likely make others rely on him, right!

If he possessed this keyword, his attributes would probably already be sky-high by now.

He had established a nation; a mere policy could let more people rely on him, even more useful than being upright.

After all, dependence does not need to take reputation into consideration.

“Senior Duge, do you have any good advice for my keyword?” Nobb asked, tentatively probing.

“No,” Duge shook his head, smiling, “For now, just follow me. Once I’ve dealt with this world, your status should naturally rise. If you’re willing, you could do things like take hits for me when I’m in danger. Perhaps you could awaken a skill through that.”

“I will,” Nobb nodded earnestly.

“But you need to be prepared, if you don’t play a substantive role in my team, I’m likely not going to allocate resources to you…” Duge said.

He wouldn’t just trust a stranger carelessly; there were many friends who had fought alongside him on the battlefield.

Without mutual benefits, Duge would no longer distribute resources evenly.

Pan-Universe Entertainment had already started targeting him, and who knew what would happen in the future Alien Battlefields. He needed real comrades who could take hits for him, who could assist him.

The higher the spiritual power of people like Gao Ming, the better.

Ranking was linked to spiritual power, and Duge naturally wanted to maneuver his companions’ rankings as high as possible, so at that time, these strangers would naturally have to step back, and if necessary, sacrifice themselves…
