57: Chapter 57 The Strongest Backer! Joining the Military!

Amidst the thunderous, tsunami-like applause, Fang Chuan walked onto the podium.

Mayor Li personally presented the awards to the top ten, and finally, he solemnly placed a card emitting a faint tricolor divine light into Fang Chuan's hands.

SS-Rank Divine Kingdom Building Card!

On the card's design, a gold-stamped question mark was printed on the front, with a mysterious glimmer flowing across its surface.

This was the champion's exclusive reward, the SS-Rank Random Divine Kingdom Building Card!

Fang Chuan took the SS-Rank Divine Kingdom Building Card; it felt slightly heavy in his hand, and a mysterious halo flowed across its surface, from which he could vaguely sense the immense energy contained within.

A random building card was just like opening a blind box, filled with uncertainty.

Although what one gets depends entirely on luck, this was SS-Rank after all; no matter what it turned out to be, it was undoubtedly a top-tier item!

"Student Fang Chuan, congratulations."

After Mayor Li handed him the card, he did not leave immediately, but instead asked in a very solemn tone: "You have stunned everyone in this joint examination; it can be said that your future is boundless. I wonder, what are your plans for the future?"

Once this question was asked, not only did General Luo Yi on the stage prick up his ears, but all the big shots off the stage did so instantly as well.

This was no longer a simple inquiry; it meant that Fang Chuan had completely entered the sights of the Qinghe City leadership, and this was clearly a recruitment attempt.

Fang Chuan answered almost without any hesitation: "Report, Mayor! I intend to join the military and serve the country!"

"Serving the country is the duty of our generation!"

Fang Chuan was certainly not just saying empty words.

This choice was the result of his long and careful consideration.

His Divine Kingdom's situation would sooner or later be impossible to hide; although he was currently basking in infinite glory, in reality, he was surrounded by crises.

The secret of that "Goblin Altar" was like a huge piece of fat, having already attracted the covetous eyes of countless hungry wolves.

The Lu Family had only started it today; in the future, there would definitely be no shortage of people, both openly and secretly, who would want to target him.

Not to mention that there was still the terrifying Huangfu Family peeking from behind the scenes.

Under these circumstances, choosing the strongest backer became a top priority.

Looking at the entire Dragon Kingdom, in terms of the strongest strength and the hardest backing, without a doubt, it was the Dragon Kingdom military!

As long as he could enter the military system and receive the military's protection, then no matter how powerful those aristocratic families were, if they wanted to touch him, they would have to think twice!

What's more, what is the one thing the military doesn't lack?

It is war!

Wars with other planes, wars with void heretics, and wars with hostile Divine Kingdoms!

Where there is war, there is loot, and there are endless resources.

As long as the Fortune Synergy was present, his growth speed would definitely be like riding a rocket, incredibly fast.

Fang Chuan even had the confidence to break through to a Ninth-Rank Deity within a year!

Therefore, joining the military was the best choice for him, with a hundred benefits and no harm.

"Good! Well said!"

Mayor Li happily patted Fang Chuan on the shoulder. "For Qinghe City to produce a talent like you is the pride of all of Qinghe!"

General Luo Yi was even more direct; he announced on the spot: "Student Fang Chuan, I represent the Dragon Kingdom military and officially invite you! As long as you are willing to join us, the military can make an exception and grant you the rank of Major!"

"Furthermore, the military will sign the highest-spec SSS-Rank Genius Investment Agreement with you!"

Boom!

General Luo Yi's words exploded in the entire main control hall like a heavy bomb!

Everyone was stunned into disbelief by this news!

"What? Major rank? Did I hear that right!"

"He's only eighteen! Just graduated from high school, and he's being granted the rank of Major directly? You couldn't find a few examples of this in the history of the military!"

"That's not even the most exaggerated part; the most exaggerated thing is that SSS-Rank Genius Investment Agreement!"

A young man from an aristocratic family who looked quite knowledgeable lowered his voice and explained to his companions: "You guys don't know, this SSS-Rank agreement is the highest-level investment agreement of the military! In the entire Dragon Kingdom, no more than ten people can get this agreement every year! Each one of them is a monster who has awakened a top-tier Divine Profession and has a Divine Kingdom rating of at least SS-Rank!"

"Lu Hai, Qin Yao, and Lin Xiaoxiao, those three, although they are also SSS-Rank geniuses, the military only gave them an SS-Rank investment plan! This Fang Chuan doesn't even have a Deity Talent; although he is powerful now, he will definitely be surpassed by Lu Hai and the others in the future. On what grounds does he deserve this?"

In their view, although Fang Chuan relied on that so-called "Goblin Altar" to shine brightly in the joint examination and displayed astonishing combat power.

However, his foundation was, after all, only an F-Rank Divine Kingdom!

The Divine Kingdom level determines the growth limit of a deity.

Even if he could take the lead now by relying on special buildings, what about the future?

When Lu Hai, Qin Yao, and Lin Xiaoxiao, these true SSS-Rank geniuses grow up, their Divine Kingdoms constantly expand, and their Divine Profession abilities are continuously developed, on what grounds can Fang Chuan's F-Rank Divine Kingdom compare to theirs?

The ability to synthesize high-star talent believers is indeed very strong.

But it is not unique.

Some high-ranking deities who have mastered special Divine Professions can also do similar things, only the cost is relatively high.

The military's high-ranking officials are all sharp; it is impossible for them not to see this point.

But why, then, would they offer such outrageous conditions to Fang Chuan?

Even more generous than how they treated the three of them?

What exactly is the inside story that they don't know about?

They couldn't figure it out.

Meanwhile, in an independent conference room of the venue, General Luo Yi and Fang Chuan sat opposite each other, with Mayor Li and Principal Yao Guishan also accompanying them on the side.

An agreement emitting a faint golden light was pushed in front of Fang Chuan.

"Fang Chuan, this is the investment plan we have drawn up for you; take a look." General Luo Yi's tone was much gentler than before.

Fang Chuan nodded and opened the agreement.

When he saw the first item of content, even though he had already prepared himself mentally, his pupils still couldn't help but shrink sharply.

Article 1: A one-time investment from the military of 10 billion Faith Points!

10 billion!

When Fang Chuan clearly saw the string of zeros on the agreement, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

10 billion Faith Points!

What kind of concept is this? He had fought and struggled in the Fortune ruins, scouring seven levels, and his total net worth added up to only over 2 billion!

If this massive amount of Faith Points were immediately poured in, it could fully support him in conducting an unbridled, unlimited troop expansion! His overall strength would definitely be able to undergo a qualitative leap in a short period of time!

His gaze continued to move down, and the subsequent clauses made one gasp in cold air.

Article 2: The military will provide a full set of Divine Kingdom development resource packages, including but not limited to ten S-Rank Divine Kingdom Territory Expansion Cards, five A-Rank special resource mineral veins, and various Divine Kingdom building blueprints worth 2 billion Faith Points.

Article 3: The military will provide Fang Chuan with the highest level of security protection, equip him with an exclusive guard unit, and grant him military special operation immunity.

Article 4: Fang Chuan can receive the monthly Faith Point salary and military merits corresponding to the rank of Major, and has the right to prioritize the exchange of rare resources within the military.

Fang Chuan closed the agreement.

The terms were already so generous that they were impossible to refuse.
