Chapter 51 Venerable-Level Authority
Chapter 51 Venerable-Level Authority
After Lin Yi left, Venerable Guiyi looked at his teacher eagerly, "Teacher, I don't understand why you did this?"
The leader of the Chaos City Lord's personal guard!
That title alone is enough to impress people!
To outsiders, this is the embodiment of the Chaos City Lord's will, and to some extent, he can exercise the Chaos City Lord's power.
Venerable Guiyi truly couldn't understand how such a crucial position could be so easily handed over to Lin Yi, whom he had only met once, and who was merely a domain lord.
The Chaos City Lord glanced at Venerable Guiyi, as if he had seen through his thoughts. In a good mood, he offered a rare explanation.
"First of all, the authority of the head of the Royal Guard can be as great or as little as I can control. The situation you described, where my will is embodied and I exercise my power, will not occur for the time being!"
Secondly, I admire Lin Yi's character and have high hopes for his future. I have a good impression of him and am willing to spend some time getting to know him better.
He paused, then said seriously, "You are a supreme cosmic venerable one, so please don't underestimate this domain lord. He possesses great fortune..."
……
A shocking announcement from the human race's high command spread after Lin Yi's departure.
To ensure the safety of the City Lord's Mansion, the Lord of Chaos City established a personal guard to protect Chaos City!
The news was so absurd that anyone with even a slight understanding of the power of the Chaos City Lord would find the appointment laughable.
When did the Chaos City Lord, who was renowned throughout the entire primordial universe, need personal guards to protect him?
That's ridiculous.
……
Lin Yi left the Chaos Ruins.
Beep~ Beep~
A series of email notifications from the Virtual Universe Company rang out. A quick glance revealed that most of them were messages about changes to his access permissions…
[First Email]:
Lin Yi, hello. You have been appointed as the leader of the Chaos City Lord's personal guard. As you are the first leader, your specific authority will be exercised as usual, as follows:
1. Full title: Commander of the Chaos City Royal Guard
2. Direct superior: Lord of Chaos City (the top leader of the Virtual Universe Company)
3. Ultimate Pursuit: The city lord's "sword" and "shield" are symbols of the Virtual Universe Company's highest military strength and loyalty.
4. Core of Power:
Military Command - Direct Legion: Command the "Chaos Royal Guard," with a size limit of 100. Membership is unlimited, but candidates must achieve the status of Realm Lord after 1 epoch, Immortal after 10 epochs, and Marquis-level Immortal after 10000 epochs. Those who do not meet these requirements will be removed from the Royal Guard.
• Extended Permissions: The Royal Guard can move freely in the outer quarters of the Chaos City Lord's Mansion, while the Royal Guard Commander can move freely in the inner quarters of the City Lord's Mansion (excluding Chaos Ruins). They can choose a residence within Chaos City.
• Cosmic-level operational authority: Authorized by the city lord, one can lead the personal guard across intergalactic nations to carry out the highest-level cleanup, suppression, and exploration missions.
……
There are more than a thousand items in total.
What piqued Lin Yi's interest was one of them—the supervisory responsibility!
The company will conduct full-time monitoring of the Genius Battle organized by the Virtual Universe Company, including ensuring the fairness of the Genius Battle from the preliminary rounds to the final battle, and the safety of those who travel to Chaos City for training.
The second email details the benefits Lin Yi received:
Permanent residency rights in Chaos City.
It can be taught publicly.
Each era grants 1 million points from the Virtual Universe Company.
You can study the Chaos Stele 10 times every 100 epochs.
When traveling, one can summon immortal guards from various cosmic nations.
……
Then I read the third letter, the fourth letter...
After reading the entire book, Lin Yi had a general idea of the commander of the Imperial Guard and nodded to himself.
The Lord of Chaos City hadn't lied to him. This commander of the personal guard was indeed of a rank comparable to a Universe Venerable. All his treatment was based on that of a Universe Venerable, and he was even considered to be directly responsible to the Lord of Chaos City. His special status was even higher than that of a Universe Venerable.
After all, even the Cosmic Venerable cannot simply meet the Lord of Chaos City at will.
Unbeknownst to him, Lin Yi arrived at the Chaos Stele in the outer mansion of the Chaos City Lord, where the black-robed envoy obediently waited to the side.
Seeing Lin Yi look up at him, the black-robed envoy quickly stepped forward and respectfully bowed.
"Greetings, Commander."
Clearly, he had already received news of Lin Yi's appointment. As the guide to Chaos City, he needed to be fully aware of every development in Chaos City, especially with such an extremely important appointment from Lin Yi.
"Yes, I will choose the Chaos Stele." Lin Yi nodded slightly.
Life is truly wondrous. Just a few hours ago, the black-robed envoy looked down upon them, the group of realm lords, from a high and mighty position. Now, however, they have to look up to him.
The black-robed envoy quickly said, "Please come with me, sir!"
Having said that, he obediently led the way like a servant.
"My lord, you may choose a Chaos Stele to observe and comprehend." The black-robed envoy quickly walked to the entrance of a dreamlike corridor, with huge paintings hanging on the walls on both sides.
"Fifty-two rubbings of images are hanging on the walls of the corridor, each corresponding to a Chaos Stele."
"Sir, you may choose carefully, no time is required."
The black-robed envoy said with a smile.
Lin Yi nodded. There was no need for the black-robed envoy to curry favor. He could freely enter and leave the inner palace, let alone the Chaos Stele murals in the outer palace. He could look at them for as long as he wanted.
Lin Yi strolled to the first mural. Each painting was a standard ten meters long and ten meters wide, and there was a name next to each painting.
"My mental strength is not yet up to par, and I have not yet begun to truly cultivate the 'Reincarnation Sword Scripture,' but I will definitely walk this path in the future."
"The first choice for the Chaos Stele is the Fire and Void Law. If we can find a Chaos Stele with sword marks, like the Heart Mark Chaos Stele, which is supported by knife marks, that would be even better."
Lin Yi strolled by, hands behind his back, past the rubbings of the Chaos Stele.
Ancestral Tree Chaos Stele... Dragon Journey Chaos Stele... Heavenly Dawn Chaos Stele... Heart Trace Chaos Stele...
"I choose the Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele," Lin Yi said without hesitation.
The Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele is a type of Chaos Stele that gradually comprehends higher-level primordial laws by starting with lower-level primordial laws, beginning with the primordial law of fire, and gradually progressing to other primordial laws.
Lin Yi followed the black-robed envoy deeper into the corridor, and after a short while, they arrived at an extremely spacious training ground, which covered an area of tens of kilometers in length and width.
In the training ground, a group of people stood there, including Steve and his companions. The black-robed envoy respectfully said, "Please wait a moment, my lord. Someone is studying the Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele, and it will take another 3 days."
Upon seeing Lin Yi, Steve's eyes lit up. He quickly walked over with one person, stood in front of Lin Yi, and introduced the woman behind him.
"Emperor Yi, this is your fellow townsman, also from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."
"However, they are far superior to you and me; they are a member of the royal family of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom!"
Lin Yi looked at the woman and said, "She is a member of the family of the Supreme God of the Universe, the Lord of the Qianwu Clan."
It must be said that the stronger a person is, the more outstanding the appearance of their family members. The female world lord in front of us has lived for at least several eras, yet time has not left the slightest trace on her face.
"Yan Yusha, this is Lin Yi, also from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom," Steve introduced enthusiastically.
The realm master named Yan Yusha nodded to Lin Yi, revealing a slight smile.
Those who can enter Chaos City during the Realm Lord era may not be extraordinary people, but their identities are mostly not simple, so there is no need to offend them.
