Chapter 2- First summon, Phoenix

Dragons are divine beasts that are on the top of all living things, divided into many branches.

The phoenix is a species that is almost equal to dragons, divided into three main branches.

Fenris wolves are one of the beasts born with the law of devourer.

To get off to a good start in the early stages of the Lord's battle, i.e. the novice guard period, he needs to look at the quality rather than the quantity of troops he will summon upon. Thus, troops with high attack power must summon the resources needed to upgrade their territory and hunt down wild monsters and get energy and resource stones from them.

" My bloodline talent may seem useless at first, but what makes it powerful is my lord talent."

Caesar murmured as he walked toward the pool of energy located deep in the cave.

The energy pool is the base building where Lords can summon their troops with energy stones. Lords with the Lord talent can summon a specific unit, while those without the Lord talent can summon a random unit. Although having the talent to be a lord and not having it may seem different, there is a big difference between them.

For example, if someone who does not have the lord ability summons a minator, the lord will cost many times more energy than the one with the talent.

The higher the level of the energy pool, the greater the number of troops that the Lord can summon.

If the level 1 energy pool allows the lord to summon 2 soldiers, he can summon 4 soldiers with the level 2 energy pool Etc.

While Caesar was thinking about all this, when he realized that the pool of energy had come in front of him, a man appeared in front of him.

[ Select the unit you want to summon. ]

"I'm asking to confirm, I can choose the unit you want, right?" Caesar asked when a possibility came to his mind.

[ Yes, you can choose the unit you want based on your Lord talent . ]

"No matter what the situation?" He asked, eager to hear the answer he wanted.

[ The lord talent possessed by Lord Caesar can be summoned in such a way that it does not exceed the level of Lord Caesar regardless of the status of the chosen union in "Free Choice". ] Looking at the screen floating before his eyes, Caesar smirked from ear to ear.

' I didn't realize it at first, but this talent carries a lot of freedom, but if you look at its limitation, it's reasonable." His expression soured a little as Caesar remembered the annoying restraint, but he calmed down knowing that such a powerful talent would not exist without its constraint.

[ Lord Talent : Free choice

The Lord can summon any unit as long as he pays the corresponding amount of energy.

( Regardless of the summoned unit of the other Lords, the energy stone is constant.) ]

For example, if he uses 100 energy stones to summon a dragon, someone with the ability to summon a dragon can use the base number of 10 energy stones. No matter how great this disadvantage may seem, it is easier to build an army with its ability than other lords.

For example, an ant or spider can summon queens and allow them to breed, building an army and combining them with the progeny of powerful beasts such as dragons, removing lineage limitations and creating a more powerful variant.

[ Select the unit you want to summon! (3/3) ]

" I want to summon a Phoenix egg with three females (ice/dark/fire) inside." Caesar said it by stating the status of the unit he wanted to call.

[ Are you sure? ]

" Yes."

With his words, the energy pool began to glow with a golden light. Caesar, whose eyes had become accustomed to the dark cave, hurriedly closed his eyes.

When the light disappeared after a few seconds, he opened his eyes. In front of him was a meter-tall Phoenix egg with red, dark and blue colors on top of the energy pool, which was less bright than before.

When Caesar slowly floated in front of the phoenix egg, he gently grabbed it and put it on the edge of the energy pool, and the whole cave began to shake.

He looked around, trying to figure out what that concussion was. At that time, an altar-like pillar appeared on the left side of the energy pool. On top of this pillar, a shape slowly began to form. Caesar waited for this form to be completed, while wondering about the end of all these events.

When the shape was complete, what appeared was a white Phoenix with its wings raised above its head, looking at the world with arrogance and contempt. This phoenix had three feathers on its tail that were three times longer than other feathers. These feathers shimmered in colors that represented the three directions of the phoenixes—red of fire, blue of ice, and black of darkness.

Caesar was speechless in the face of what had happened. Although he knew that the Phoenix in front of him was a statue, it seemed to be the same truth. His noble posture and the arrogance in his eyes made him seem real.

Caesar stood motionless for a few more minutes before indicating a screen in front of him in front of the white phoenix statue.

[ The troop you selected has been summoned successfully. ]

[ Your remaining entitlement to the free summon (3/2) ]

Caesar shuddered, inhaling the cold air.

" That was dangerous. Even if it wasn't a completely bad thing, I felt like I could look at it forever if the system hadn't reminded me." Even if he looked at this statue in the future, he focused on the front of him as he decided not to look at it for too long.

Focusing on the egg in his hand, he asked.

" How long does it take for the egg to crack? "

[ 04.59 ]

" Let's just summon the others now." Caesar said before a screen appeared in front of him again.
