I Can Get 1,000,000x Returns from Selling Anything!-Chapter 96 --Flight Arcana, Eternal Black King!

A burning light flashed through Daniel’s eyes.

A top-tier legion like that was naturally something the more he had, the better.

He immediately swept through the hidden exchange interface, buying out every kind of Class Awakening Scroll for military units across various grades, spending a total of 1 billion points.

Now that he already had the Special Unit Class Awakening Scrolls, the only things left were population and legion warriors.

Thinking of the world-ending calamities he would face in the future—enemies numbering in the tens of billions at every turn—

the mere few million NPC troops under his command were nothing more than a drop in the ocean.

Daniel shifted his gaze to the normal exchange interface.

He spent 500 million points to recruit 50 million legion warriors of various unit types.

[Ding! Consumed 500 million points. Obtained gold-grade warriors of all troop types ×50,000,000!]

[Prompt: Please designate a city on the map. The legion warriors will arrive in that city in 30 minutes.]

"Ironforge."

Daniel selected the location.

After settling the legion warriors, he turned his attention to NPC population.

With 100 million points, he exchanged for 100 million NPC civilians, assigning them to Ironforge and Polaris City respectively. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Ironforge’s capacity was limited, but there were many medium and small cities in the surrounding area.

As for Polaris City, being a main city, accommodating over a hundred million people was easily within its means.

Immediately afterward, Daniel used the remaining 400 million points to purchase a large quantity of potions, EXP cards, skill books, and companion eggs.

These items were not expensive individually, but their sheer quantity made them immensely valuable.

With this batch of consumables, both the guild players and the NPCs under his command would experience a significant rise in strength!

Daniel knew very well that the flap of his butterfly wings had already stirred up an incomparably violent storm in the world of Stellar.

The progress of the game was accelerating forward at a terrifying pace, yet the NPC nobles slumbering within the Human Empire were still immersed in the old order, utterly unaware that the tide of the times had already changed course.

They would not even realize that disaster was drawing closer at an ever-increasing speed.

Every version to come would be an apocalyptic catastrophe.

Placing his hopes in those rigid, step-by-step imperial bureaucrats was no different from trying to rely on a straw for survival in the middle of a storm!

He had to forge a force that truly belonged to him—both for himself and for humanity.

That was why investing in NPCs and cultivating his own legion was not merely a choice, but an absolute necessity.

What was more, NPC loyalty was far more dependable than that of players, who could be swayed at any moment by profit or fear.

Players might betray him, shrink back, or flee for their lives at the most critical moment.

But the NPC warriors he personally nurtured—so long as the contract remained—would never abandon him.

Investing in players might end in total loss.

But every resource spent on NPCs would one day become the firmest shield and the sharpest spear in his hands!

...

After taking one final look at his abundant gains, Daniel closed the exchange interface.

"Exit the dungeon event!"

Whoosh—!

A flash of white light passed, and Daniel’s figure reappeared beside the portal in Skyhold.

After returning to the ducal residence in Polaris City, the first thing he did was take out those seven Flight Mastery Fragments!

The seven fragments slowly floated above his palm, radiating a pale golden light. Fine chains of light faintly linked them together.

"Synthesize."

[Ding! You are synthesizing "Flight Arcana Core (supreme-grade)." This operation requires the secondary profession of legendary-grade Engineer. Confirm?]

"Confirm!"

One minute later, golden light burst forth.

The seven fragments fused together within the radiance, transforming into a fist-sized golden core.

Ancient runes covered its surface, while streams of light swirled inside it, as though it contained the very essence of the wind itself!

[Ding! Synthesis successful! Obtained "Flight Arcana Core (supreme-grade)"!]

[Flight Arcana Core (supreme-grade)]

Type: Wing Equipment Enhancement Core

Effect: Can be fused with wing equipment of legendary-grade or above, greatly enhancing the performance of the wing equipment.

Description: A core containing ancient flight arcana. Once fused with wing equipment, it grants the wearer a transcendent power of flight beyond mortal limits.

Daniel took out [Black Dragon Wing].

This piece of supreme-grade equipment had accompanied him for a long time, yet its potential had still not been fully unearthed.

Now, it was finally time for it to evolve once more.

He activated the Flight Arcana Core.

Bzzzz—!

A dazzling burst of golden light erupted from the wings, illuminating the entire room.

Within the radiance, Black Dragon Wing slowly began to transform. Golden patterns emerged across its originally black scales, sharper bony spikes extended from its edges, and its wingspan expanded from ten meters to fifteen meters.

Every feather shimmered with a black-gold luster, and arcs of lightning flickered faintly across the surface.

[Ding! Fusion successful! "Black Dragon Wing" has evolved into "Eternal Black King (supreme-grade)"!]

Daniel raised a brow and immediately opened its status panel.

[Eternal Black King (supreme-grade)]

Type: Wing Equipment (Bound)

Additional Effects:

[Eternal Wingspan]: Upon activation, spreads its wings. Flight Speed +8000%, consumes no MP. [High-Speed Cruise]: In long-distance flight mode, speed becomes 500% of the character’s current Agility stat, consuming 200 MP per second. [Black King Barrier]: Once activated, the wings can be used to block damage from the front. Maximum damage capacity: 20,000,000 points (repairable). [Undying Structure]: The wing equipment has infinite durability and can never be destroyed. If struck by an attack exceeding its damage capacity, the wings will automatically retract.

Description: A legendary pair of wings fused with ancient flight arcana. The black-gold feathers flow with the power of a Black Dragon. The instant you spread these wings, you become the sovereign of the skies!

After reading its attributes, Daniel could no longer suppress the smile on his lips.

Although this equipment was still only supreme-grade, one had to know that even among supreme-grade items, there were enormous differences!

And those differences could truly be described as worlds apart.

For example, supreme-grade gear produced from boosting ordinary equipment generally had rather average stats.

But compared with high-tier gear that already possessed special effects and skills, the latter could greatly expand the upper limits of its inherent attributes!

The current Eternal Black King had received a tremendous enhancement—its flight speed had risen to 8000%, its damage capacity had reached 20 million, and it could even negate overflow damage!

And one had to remember: these were only its additional enhancements. Its original attribute bonuses and skills had not been overwritten at all!

It could be said that this pair of wings was no longer merely a piece of equipment, but a mobile fortress!

He immediately equipped it.

[Prompt: You have equipped "Eternal Black King."]

Looking again at his current equipment and attribute bonuses, Daniel felt a profound sense of security rise within him.

At this rate of growth, perhaps he really could overturn all the destined cataclysmic endings when that day finally came!

Daniel calmed himself and turned his gaze toward Carodion, who stood behind him.

Next, he planned to bring Carodion back to Ironforge.

There were still 50 million legion warriors and tens of millions of NPC civilians waiting there for him to receive!

With a thought, the black-gold wings unfurled behind him.

The fifteen-meter wings spread like a canopy over the sky, each feather reflecting a cold metallic sheen, with golden arcs of lightning dancing along the edges!

"Let’s go."

He said to Carodion.

Carodion nodded, silently expanding his form and following close behind.

The two figures tore across the heavens, racing toward Ironforge like bolts of light.
