Chapter Forty-Five
The teleportation array shimmered beneath Crow's boots, threads of light spinning faster and faster until —
flash —
he was standing at the edge of Starter Village Three.
The small village was peaceful, players bustling around, completely unaware of what was about to happen.
NPC merchants called out their wares, but Crow ignored them all, heading straight toward the Unit Merchant hidden behind the church.
The old priest NPC, his robes tattered but eyes sharp, bowed deeply the moment Crow approached.
"You… You carry the aura of destiny, young one. Are you here to claim the holy army?"
Crow simply nodded, tossing a heavy bag of gold onto the merchant's desk.
"Everything."
[Shop Refresh!]
[Available Units:]
300 Priestess Units (C-B Rank) 40 Healer Units (B-A Rank)
[Cost: 300 Gold per Priestess | 600 Gold per Healer]
Without hesitation, Crow bought every single one.
Gold evaporated from his pockets, but the merchant smiled even wider, clearly knowing how rare a customer like Crow was.
[Units Acquired!]
300 Priestess Units added to Army. 40 Healer Units added to Army.
[Units automatically transported to Pocket Dimension.]
At that moment, a few nearby players noticed what was happening.
Whispers spread like wildfire.
"Did you see that?! Who the hell just bought everything?!"
"Wait — was that... Crow? The one from the server announcements?"
"That guy's insane! Nobody can even find hero units, and he just bought out an entire priestess and healer stockpile?!"
Panic started brewing. Greedy players scrambled to the merchant, but the shop was already empty.
Crow didn't spare them a glance.
He calmly opened a portal and vanished, leaving only stunned silence behind.
Inside his Pocket Dimension,
300 priestesses in flowing white robes and 40 healers in shining armor knelt respectfully before him,
their chants filling the air with a soothing, sacred hum.
Crow's army now had unstoppable regeneration.
Casualties?
Injuries?
Meaningless.
Crow could march an army through hell itself — and walk out stronger than when he entered.
And soon...
he planned to.
