In the following period of time, Xiao Ran did not participate in several missions. However, the number of S-class pilots in the Burning Legion continued to increase. A new batch was elected in the new mission cycle, followed by the normal promotion that would occur in every mission.
The Burning Legion had been developing for too long. In terms of strength, it had always been the strength of the territory that dominated. However, after developing for so long, the direct members of the Burning Legion had finally reached the stage of eruption. One by one, they began to grow into S-class pilots. Based on the scale and size of the Burning Legion, they had already surpassed the Army of Myth, which was still the number one in name.
The power of the Burning Legion was also growing in Prometheus. However, they were becoming more and more low-key in missions. Once they entered a mission, they would immediately announce that there were members of the Burning Legion in this mission. Those who wanted to come and hug their legs should hurry up and not dig holes everywhere like before.
However, unless there were participants who wanted to go against the Burning Legion in the mission, the Burning Legion would not show any mercy during the mission. They would do what they were supposed to do, but at least they would show some mercy. Generally speaking, as long as a member of the Burning Legion appeared in a world, they would basically be the leader of the pack.
Many people in the Burning Legion knew that the S-class pilots in the legion were busy with another arrangement. Those who were not S-class pilots would not know about a new mission. Every newly promoted S-class pilot would stay in Prometheus for one or two mission periods before joining the new mission assigned by the legion. After that, they would disappear from Prometheus.
Until now, many people had realized that they had not seen that batch of S-grade Mech Pilots for a long time. However, the top powers of the Burning Legion were not greatly affected. The Burning Legion was the kind of legion that purely relied on their strength to bully others. However, in a mission, even a B-grade Mech Pilot could cause a huge commotion in the mission world. As such, the impact on the mission was not that great.
Furthermore, there were still some special S-rank Pilots in the army. After the new batch of S-rank Pilots were elected into the army, it would greatly fill up the gap left by the batch of S-rank Pilots who had left. For the army as a whole, it was still very stable.
On the other hand, Kiliam's analysis department hadn't been able to produce any good results. However, this department was a special department that would last for a lifetime, so there was no need to worry about any results.
However, other than exposing a flaw in the illusion zone, Prometheus only had some flaws in the rules that could be exploited. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to get to the core. It was not clear when the information from the illusion zone would come back, and using the existing rules would be impossible to obtain Prometheus's control. Progress in this aspect was somewhat at a stalemate.
The current situation was still relatively stable, and it wasn't to the point where they had to fight head-on. There was still a lot of time to wait.
With Xiao Ran's current situation, he couldn't continue to improve himself infinitely through battle. On the contrary, he could strengthen himself at any time. The entire Burning Legion's resources were absolutely terrifying, but for Xiao Ran, there was no need for that.
He knew the path ahead of him the best. He didn't need to learn a bunch of random things to fill up his skill library. Instead, he needed to continue to deepen his mental power, psychokinesis, and the quantum realm. Every improvement in these three areas could make Xiao Ran's strength visible to the naked eye, especially the quantum realm. The more he understood and deepened, the more Xiao Ran understood the terror of the quantum realm.
And now, Xiao Ran realized that he might not even be able to use one-thousandth of the quantum realm's power. This was definitely a realm that only gods could step into. If he could do it, Xiao Ran could completely use the quantum realm to change time and cause and effect. Just like a god in a certain world, he could summon infinite clones at the same time. One second, infinite clones would appear in the next second.
By then, although he would be an S-rank pilot, he would also be an infinite number of S-rank pilots. Ten thousand Xiao Ran would be scary.
Xiao Ran already understood that his future path was in this direction. It was to control and change these two points. When the time came, he would supplement it with psychokinesis, mental power, and magical abilities to achieve the ultimate goal of being invincible.
Although Xiao Ran didn't carry out any missions now, he had been training and deepening his abilities. Every few days, he would activate quantum assimilation to train himself. Therefore, even if there were no missions, he was still growing day by day. The speed was very slow, but the quality was very high.
The various S-rank pilots would return to report the situation every once in a while. After a few missions, a long time had passed in the real universe.
Now, except for the new batch of S-rank pilots that returned, the first batch of S-rank pilots that returned had all taken control of the civilization they belonged to. In this aspect, the Burning Legion was an expert. They had specialized skills to teach, bribing pressure to cultivate a series of combination punches, and those S-rank pilots had great strength. It wasn't difficult for them to achieve this level.
Now, most of these S-rank pilots had contacted each other and were building a communication network. They were using the technology given by the Burning Legion to build a new type of battleship. They were trying to build Star Unification in the real universe. This also meant that the real universe was undergoing a huge cosmic revolution.
These people had no objections to letting their hometowns be under the management of the Burning Legion. The Burning Legion wanted Star Unification, but not their civilization. Their civilization joined Star Unification, but the Burning Legion wouldn't interfere with their internal management. Instead, they would coordinate, control, and influence, just like how the Burning Legion treated the countless forces in their territory.
The general direction had to follow the arrangements of the Burning Legion, but they wouldn't interfere too much internally. Moreover, joining Star Unification meant that they had the support of the Burning Legion. Everyone's civilization would not be able to fight because of the Burning Legion's restrictions. Even if there were conflicts, it would be completely within a reasonable range of control. They would also be able to obtain the support and help of the Burning Legion. This was a good thing. Naturally, they wouldn't be unwilling.
The first to start exploring the outside world were the S-rank pilots of Borsia, with Cang as the representative. They gathered together at most so that it was more convenient for them to split up. Within the entire force, they searched everywhere for traces of Prometheus to confirm whether Prometheus's power had infiltrated the real world.
Time passed quickly. A few years had passed in the real universe. In Prometheus, it was a new cycle of missions. The Burning Legion was getting stronger and stronger. More S-rank pilots returned to the real universe and began to explore the universe. This allowed more and more new civilizations to join Star Unification.
The Burning Legion had become a superpower with the most A-rank pilots, the most S-rank pilots, and the most affiliated legions. They were spread across both the real and super sectors. At the same time, the affiliated legions within the legion had also made some minor adjustments, dividing the entire legion into several levels.
The Burning Legion itself was the core. The Overlord Legion, Emerald Dream Legion, and the two major legions of the super sector were the inner layer. The Shadow Blade Legion and more than ten other legions were the third layer. There were even more legions as the fourth layer. One layer after another, it included the most complete growth and cultivation channels from newcomers to S-rank pilots.
Each level had a different level of authority, which represented a different level of strength. It was just like the arrangement of sects that Xiao Ran had seen in the novel. Points, missions, authority, and levels were all adapted and used in the army's structure.
The fourth layer was guarded by A-rank pilots. It mainly cultivated D-rank to C-rank members and unearthed members with potential. This was the outer layer of the Burning Legion.
The third layer was guarded by C-rank to B-rank pilots. S-rank pilots could enjoy better treatment and benefits. It was the new layer.
The second layer was guarded by B-rank to A-rank pilots. It was guarded by many S-rank pilots. At the same time, it accepted the talents that had been unearthed for more detailed cultivation. The treatment and benefits were better. It was the inner layer.
As for the true core of the Burning Legion, it basically did not recruit any members. Only the real super geniuses would be accepted into the Burning Legion when they were at a lower level. S-rank members could also naturally enter the Burning Legion or stay in the original second-layer legion. At the same time, every direct member of the Burning Legion had the right to recommend others to enter the Burning Legion. It was the core layer.
The core layer was naturally guarded by S-rank pilots. Xiao Ran, Cruzet, and the others were the core. There were not many changes in this aspect.
This kind of legion structure was a revolutionary reform in Prometheus. Every participant who joined the Burning Legion from the beginning and was slowly groomed would have a great sense of identity and pride in the Burning Legion. They did not look for those who had grown up naturally. Instead, they provided resources to nurture those who were willing to join. As long as they performed well, they would receive more resources. The stronger they were, the more authority they would receive.
If they were able to display special talents, they might even be noticed by the big bosses. For example, talents in technical aspects, talents in spiritual aspects, talents in certain inheritances, and so on.
Of course, the more these people received in the Burning Legion, the more restrictions they would have. They could only completely bind themselves to the Burning Legion, and there was no possibility of leaving. There were even many master-disciple inheritances within the legion. A few teachers were already quite invincible. Hades, Invincible East, Li Qiu, Kane.
Under this kind of structure, the inheritance of the Burning Legion was carried to the peak. The changes of the Burning Legion had a great impact on both regions. Many other legions also followed the changes of the Burning Legion. Suddenly, the super region and the real region had an atmosphere of unity.
Moreover, the Burning Legion had also separated out territories that weren't of much use. After some construction, they were open to all members. They were free to purchase time in these territories, but these territories didn't include the original territories of the Burning Legion.
Xiao Ran did not know that his adjustments to the legion would have such a big impact on the two regions. However, after the restructuring, the people below did have a greater sense of belonging, and they became more motivated. In any case, this was a good thing.
With such a structure to carry out hierarchical management, and a large number of big bosses to supervise from the side, the legion's development once again entered a high-speed trajectory. Xiao Ran, on the other hand, had fewer and fewer things to do. He almost did not have to worry about anything. Every day, he cultivated his body and mind, improved his ability, and accompanied his wife and children.
This peaceful and stable life was not broken until several people returned to Prometheus.
Na Zi, Fades, Cang, and more than a dozen other S-rank pilots returned to Prometheus together. The first thing they did was to find Xiao Ran. Cruzet, Uzzes, Xiaya, Bai Hechou, Kiliam, and the other big bosses were all present. This showed that Na Zi and the others had returned for an important matter.
First, Na Zi gave everyone a copy of the information, and at the same time, she played a dozen videos that were about three minutes long.
After these videos and documents were watched by the big bosses, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Ran.
"Heh." Xiao Ran laughed with a complicated expression. There was a hint of a sneer in it. He threw the documents in his hand on the table and looked at Na Zi and the others. "How many have you found?"
Na Zi replied, "After we communicated and confirmed, we found a total of one hundred and twenty-eight of them. They are spread throughout the universe we have explored, and they are extremely far away from each other."
"But we found a certain pattern. There must only be one such thing in an area. They exist in different environments, but the distance between them is basically the same. One such thing will exist at the same distance from at least three similar things. Based on this pattern, we have only found one hundred and twenty-eight of them. So far, we have not found any more."
Cang added, "Now, we have completely sealed off all of these things. No one can get close or come into contact with them. At the same time, we preliminarily speculate that these things belong to a kind of structural node. Connected together, they cover a large area of the universe. They should also have the ability to locate them."
"This time, the participants who returned were all within the range of these things. We can more or less confirm that we were able to come to Prometheus because of these things, but we can't be sure if there are similar node structures in other distant universes."
Xiao Ran nodded and glanced at Na Zi. The latter immediately understood Xiao Ran's gaze and shook her head gently.
This meant that the place that originally belonged to the solar system had now become a much larger black sphere that did not fall within the range of these things. But this made Xiao Ran even more puzzled. Damn, how did he come to Prometheus?
Na Zi asked, "How should we deal with this?"
This was also a question that everyone present wanted to know.
