The bar hall fell silent after King Eternal Night's exclamation.
Seeing this, Marquis Fierceclaw felt that things were not looking good; he hadn't expected his friend King Eternal Night's reaction to be so strong.
"Sorry, Fierceclaw." Seeing the bar fall silent, King Eternal Night quickly sat down and transmitted, "I was too excited just now…"
"It's nothing." Marquis Fierceclaw shook his head slightly. Since things had come to this, he couldn't blame his friend anymore.
Upon closer thought, this news was indeed astonishing. If it were him hearing this news, he would most likely also lose his composure.
After a few seconds of silence in the bar, someone finally broke it.
A Marquis-level Immortal put down his wine glass, stood up, and asked, "Marquis Fierceclaw, are you saying King Atlas is the recently famous King Verdant End?"
Hearing the Marquis-level Immortal's question, Marquis Fierceclaw initially didn't want to answer, but considering Ender's reputation, he stood up and replied, "If there's no unexpected, King Atlas is the 'King Verdant End'!"
"I was previously hunted by King Farlight and had no choice but to seek allied assistance. It just so happened that King Atlas received my distress call and immediately agreed to come."
"Later, after King Atlas arrived, he told me to leave first and blocked King Farlight alone. As for why King Eternal Night and King Melting Rule from the Mechanical Race camp, and King Mistflare from the Demon race camp, appeared there, I do not know."
"But King Atlas's previous identity was Cloud Vine Lord, and Cloud Vine Lord is wanted by the Mechanical Race camp and the Demon race camp. It is estimated that the bounty attracted the three King-level Immortal."
Marquis Fierceclaw finally added, "As you know, the bounty from the alien races for our human Genius is exceptionally generous. King Atlas's previous bounty, it is said, was equivalent to killing a Limit stage King-Level!"
After listening to Marquis Fierceclaw's explanation, the Marquis-level Immortal in the bar immediately began to discuss.
"It seems King Atlas is truly the King Verdant End."
"King Atlas is truly formidable. The Demon race and Mechanical Race's bounty is equivalent to killing a Limit stage King-Level, which is 100 billion Mixed units!"
"Don't call him King Atlas anymore. Now he should be called King Verdant End, after all, he is already a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal with a King-level Immortal title."
"Right! Don't call him King Atlas anymore; he should be called King Verdant End."
"Tsk tsk, Marquis Ya Yu is really lucky; he can actually befriend a Pinnacle Stage King-Level expert."
"Who says otherwise? Not only is Marquis Ya Yu lucky, Marquis Falconblood's luck isn't too bad either, being able to offend a Pinnacle Stage King-Level expert and still retreat unharmed."
After combining various pieces of information and deliberating, the Marquis-level Immortal confirmed that 'King Atlas' was indeed the King Verdant End.
This result made them feel honored, after all, the King Verdant End had visited this bar and was considered to have been part of their circle.
Generally speaking, King-level Immortal are not in their circle. The circle where Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal reside is even higher than that of Low Stage King-level Immortal and High stage King-level Immortal.
And for them to be able to converse and drink with a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal in an informal setting was something worth being proud of and boasting about.
While the Marquis-level Immortal were discussing, three Marquis-level Immortal at a table in the corner of the bar were also conversing.
"Haha, Falconblood." A Dragon-human Marquis-level Immortal laughed and transmitted, "Did you hear that? They said you're lucky."
"I also think Falconblood is lucky. He could even go gamble for treasures; maybe he could obtain a good treasure," another Snake-human Marquis-level Immortal said with a smile.
"This can also be considered lucky?"
Facing the teasing of his two friends, Marquis Falconblood shook his head slightly and said, "Saying a casual word can offend a Pinnacle Stage King-Level expert. You're telling me I'm lucky?"
The Snake-human Marquis-level Immortal retorted, "Of course. If you had encountered not the King Verdant End, but a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal with a bad temper, do you think things would have ended well then?"
"That's true. If I had encountered a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal with a bad temper, things really wouldn't have ended well then."
Hearing this, Marquis Falconblood had to admit that his luck was indeed good. "To resolve that matter, I would have had to owe a favor and ask my clan brother or a strong member of my clan to intervene."
Normally, no one is willing to owe a favor, because debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay. Being able to avoid owing a debt of gratitude, his luck could indeed be considered good.
Furthermore, this incident also served as a warning to him: it's best not to speak carelessly, at least not before understanding the other person's identity.
After concluding his conversation with the Marquis-level Immortal, Marquis Fierceclaw sent a sliver of his consciousness into the Virtual Universe, preparing to inform Ender about what had happened in the bar.
Because of the rescue mission, he had Ender's Virtual Universe identification number and could contact him through it.
...
In the Endless Void, islands of various sizes floated.
A dark red prism-shaped Universe spacecraft was navigating through the Void, constantly bypassing the floating islands.
Inside the spacecraft's control room.
Ender sat on a chair, carefully comprehending the Space Law.
Due to his brief engagement with King Mistflare and King Eternal Night, who had comprehended the 'Space Teleportation' profound mystery, he had been inspired regarding the 'Space Teleportation' profound mystery and was diligently trying to grasp that inspiration.
Suddenly, Ender received a notification from Little Dawn: Marquis Fierceclaw was requesting a video call.
"Marquis Fierceclaw's call request. Is there something?"
Marquis Fierceclaw had already contacted him not long after the rescue mission ended. Now, sending another call request made him feel a bit strange.
"Connect." Ender gave the command with his consciousness.
Swish!
A light screen unfolded up and down. When the light screen was fully unfolded, Marquis Fierceclaw's face appeared on it.
"King Atlas." Marquis Fierceclaw in the light screen said respectfully.
Ender looked at the black and white striped tiger face on the other side of the light screen and asked, "Is there something?"
"It's like this, I unintentionally let slip that King Atlas, you are the King Verdant End…"
Marquis Fierceclaw first explained the course of events, and finally said with some embarrassment, "I hope King Atlas will forgive me."
"Oh, I thought it was something else." Ender shook his head slightly, "It's fine, it was going to be public anyway."
"Thank you for your understanding, King Atlas." Marquis Fierceclaw said respectfully.
"Mm."
Ender nodded, disconnected the video call, and then muttered to himself, "I didn't expect that the King Verdant End, whom the four major camps' Marquis-level Immortal were discussing, would actually be me."
During his previous journey, he had also heard many Marquis-level Immortal discussing the newly risen King Verdant End in the Endless Island Secret Realm Battlefield through his detector.
However, because he focused most of his energy on comprehending the Space Law, trying to grasp that inspiration, he only had a partial understanding of the information about the King Verdant End.
It wasn't until Marquis Fierceclaw's call just now that he realized he was the King Verdant End, and his King-level Immortal title had even come from the Mechanical Race camp.
"King Verdant End…"
Ender softly recited his King-level Immortal title, "Planets, and death. How did this King-level Immortal title come about?"
After a brief moment of thought, he instantly realized, "Planets are the cradle of life… Could it be that the inspiration came from my aura and pressure?" "The King-level Immortal title 'King Verdant End' was spread from the Mechanical Race camp, which means this King-level Immortal title was given by one of the three King-level Immortal from the Mechanical Race camp."
At this point, Ender showed a slight smile, "It's somewhat interesting. It seems I left a deep impression on the three King-level Immortal from the Mechanical Race camp, otherwise they wouldn't have given me a King-level Immortal title."
"Hmm…"
Ender suddenly pondered for a moment, thinking to himself, "Having a King-level Immortal title is indeed good; it proves that I have gained recognition from the strong. But it's not entirely a good thing."
"If I kill a King-level Immortal in the future with the identity of the King Verdant End, the Hong Alliance will immediately receive news of me killing a King-level Immortal. However, the military merit and the killer will be recorded under Ender's identity, which also means my identity will be exposed."
"It was so difficult to make a name for myself as an Immortal. If I expose myself so easily in the future, then my plan to disguise my identity and the Frost Armor's disguise ability would be meaningless."
Ender mused, "Perhaps I can, like Luo Feng, ask my teacher to forge an identity, so I can operate with two identities."
Thinking of this, his consciousness entered the Virtual Universe, and he sent an email to his teacher, Ice Summit Master.
Soon, Ender received a reply email from his teacher, telling him to go to his exclusive space.
...
Eternal Ice and Snow World.
Cold winds howled, and heavy snow fell.
"Teacher."
Ender entered the exclusive space, arriving at the snow-covered mountain peak, and bowed to Ice Summit Master, who stood at a high vantage point.
"I am aware of what you have said. Now I will give you two options to choose from."
Ice Summit Master turned around, his temples streaked with white, silver hair fluttering in the cold wind, "The first option: your two identities remain unchanged. I will set your combat videos to the highest authority. Unless one is the highest authority holder in the Virtual Universe Company, they will have no right to view your combat videos."
"The second option."
Ice Summit Master paused, "Just as you inquired, I will forge a King Verdant End identity for you. You can use the King Verdant End identity for making friends, trading, and even using Virtual Universe permissions."
"When you kill enemies in the Extraterritorial Battlefield as the King Verdant End, the military merit will also accumulate on the King Verdant End's identity, and not on your Virtual Universe Company Primal Secret Realm member Ender's person."
"Of course, the military merit you earn as the King Verdant End will also accumulate until you complete the 30 trillion military merit quota set for you by the Virtual Universe System."
As a teacher, Ice Summit Master was benevolent and doted on his Disciple.
However, he was not only a teacher but also one of the decision-makers of the Virtual Universe Company and even humanity.
With his way of doing things, forging an identity as an exception for Ender would naturally require Ender to pay a certain price.
Therefore, Ice Summit Master spoke, "As a price, you need to kill a King-level Immortal as the King Verdant End, otherwise, the Frost Armor will be reclaimed once you become an Immortal."
Finally, he softly said, "Think carefully before making your decision."
"Undoubtedly, the first option does not fundamentally solve the problem; once I kill a King-level Immortal, I will still be exposed."
Ender heard this and fell into thought, "Then, I only have one choice left, and that is to choose the second option, to ask teacher to forge this King Verdant End identity."
"According to teacher, the King Verdant End identity can be used for making friends, trading, and even using Virtual Universe permissions, which is equivalent to a true Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal."
"The only drawback is that I cannot kill a King-level Immortal during the World Master stage; if so, I will lose the Frost Armor after becoming an Immortal."
Thinking of that test, Ender was full of confidence, "With my Opportunity and talent, as long as I purchase and use Fei Mo Poison, killing a King-level Immortal during the World Master stage will not be difficult!"
Fei Mo Poison is very powerful, giving him the possibility of killing a King-level Immortal. However, the only drawback is that it is too expensive: 1 gram of Feimo is worth 300 million Mixed units!
It should be noted that although many Low Stage King-level Immortal have assets exceeding 300 million Mixed units, assets are ultimately just assets—a combination of weapons, battle armor, spacecraft, and treasures.
So many Low Stage King-level Immortal cannot produce 300 million Mixed units in cash alone, which shows just how expensive 1 gram of Fei Mo Poison is.
Confident in his ability to kill a King-level Immortal during the World Master stage, Ender naturally chose the second option.
So, he respectfully said, "Teacher, Disciple chooses the second option."
"Mm." Ice Summit Master nodded slightly, "From now on, every time you enter the Virtual Universe, you can first choose an identity in the Special Space, and then operate with the chosen identity."
"Thank you, Teacher." Ender thanked him.
"Go." Ice Summit Master turned around and continued to overlook the Eternal Ice and Snow World.
"Yes, Disciple takes his leave."
Ender said, took two steps back, turned, and teleported away from this space.
...
Returning to the Yu Xiang Mountain Primal Secret Realm manor.
To experience the dual identities, Ender's entire consciousness left the Virtual Universe, transforming into a white light that disappeared in the study.
When his consciousness re-entered the Virtual Universe, his location was not the study in the Primal Secret Realm manor, but a pitch-black, empty space.
In front of Ender were two virtual humanoid light projections: one radiated an aura intertwined with vibrant life and icy death, clearly the King Verdant End identity.
The other, with the Wood Origin Law acknowledgment mark between its brows and not radiating the aura of an Immortal, was clearly Ender's true identity.
The moment Ender reached out and touched the King Verdant End identity, everything around him changed. What met his eyes were two rows of pillars, built respectively from natural wood-colored trees and white ice.
With the two rows of pillars as a dividing line, the ground around the pillars was also made of the same material, and he was currently sitting on a throne.
Looking at this unfamiliar scene, Ender was a little confused, "Where is this?"
Swish!
Suddenly, a light screen appeared, with a section of Universal Cosmic text on it.
"This is my palace on Thunder Island?"
After reading the text introduction on the light screen, Ender suddenly understood, "That's right, I am now the Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal King Verdant End, so I naturally have the qualification to build a palace on Thunder Island."
The Virtual Universe Company's Core Region has two islands in the Virtual Universe: Yu Xiang Mountain, where the core Genius reside, and Thunder Island, which can only be entered after becoming an Immortal.
"Let's go out and see." Ender flew out of the palace.
As soon as he left the palace, he saw palaces all around him.
Looking into the distance, he could see the continuous, towering Central Mountain Range, with magnificent palaces built on its slopes, which were the residences of the Universe Venerable.
And his palace was built at the foot of the Central Mountain Range…
