To be honest, for a commander, not knowing how a crucial force on the battlefield—even one that can affect the entire war—came to be, or what its properties are, is truly an unbearable thing.
Take the last battle, for example.
I basically treated Shen Yu's promise from the interstellar world as my final trump card.
What he truly trusted wasn't just Shen Yu, but even more, the Goddess of Hope.
But once a problem appeared, it was basically handing himself over to the Void Spirit.
And then, what about the wars to come?
What if he made a plan, but suddenly Shen Yu from the interstellar world had to leave for some reason, or something happened, or he was unable to use his power anymore?
This uncertainty would undeniably bring significant impact to the whole war effort.
Of course, most important of all, was the desire in their hearts.
They wanted to know just how much hope this thing that suddenly appeared before them really signified—how reliable was it?
Facing the stares of these people, Shen Yu's expression from the interstellar world became a bit more serious as well.
He spoke straight out: "Just half a month ago, I was only a new recruit about to enlist—a nobody living far from the front lines. But suddenly, I became a member of an organization. The official name of that organization is the Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Mutual Aid Association."
Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Mutual Aid Association!
Just that name alone was enough to make someone as tough-minded as Xiu'Er, a frontline commander, unable to suppress his excitement and joy!
This single name already reveals too much.
It was even better than what he had expected at the beginning!
When he saw Shen Yu's previous performance, and especially when he heard the power came from the Otherworld, Xiu'Er's initial guess was that maybe the human civilization—or perhaps just Shen Yu—had somehow suddenly opened up a passage to somewhere outside their world.
Drawing on completely different rule systems and power systems from beyond, allowing impossible power to become possible.
But he hadn't expected the actual situation would turn out to be even better! Even stronger!
The Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Mutual Aid Association was an organization that spanned different worlds.
It was far more than just one world, that simple.
This means—endless possibilities!
If even Xiu'Er reacted like that, then the others were even more so; at this moment, those commanders were even more excited than when they had just won the fight.
"This really is fate smiling upon us—smiling upon all of humanity!" Xiu'Er even started pacing inside the warship. "A force that completely surpasses this universe—what do the Void Spirits have to fight us with?"
It's like two countries on the Mother Star are fighting to the death, when suddenly—aliens show up!
No matter how overwhelming the advantage one nation had, in the face of aliens, so what?
The whole world, the whole battlefield—completely different now!
"But let's not get too optimistic." Shen Yu from the interstellar world said slowly, "The Association's power is indeed strong, but there are lots of rules as well. The Association won't just step in and help us for no reason."
Shen Yu simply bundled some information and sent it over to the people before him.
After Xiu'Er and the others quickly went over all the Association's rules, their excitement didn't lessen one bit.
"Martial Arts. Magic. And worlds full of strange, mythical creatures. It's so fantastical—so mind-blowing!" Xiu'Er was completely immersed in the wonder of the reports.
If he hadn't just witnessed the power from the Otherworld with his own eyes, he would definitely have thought this was nothing but some wild fantasy!
But this is reality. Just looking at it is enough to make them unbelievably excited!
"I'm planning to set up an Association off-staff studio," Shen Yu said directly. "It'll mainly be responsible for all Association-related operations in our civilization, including tech, military, and resource support. It'll also handle integration of any powers from other worlds, as well as from the Association. Most importantly—these off-staff members are officially recognized by the Association, and will get some small perks."
Off-staff personnel of the Association!
Just this speech alone completely caught everyone's attention in the room.
They already knew just how powerful the Association was—they knew it meant an unimaginably vast world of endless possibilities.
Even if you aren't a Gray Mist Walker, even if you're just off-staff—
That's enough to make everyone in the world fight tooth and nail for it!
"Can we?"
Even though he knew Shen Yu was obviously making them an offer at a time like this, Xiu'Er still felt so excited his hands were shaking.
You have to know—in the past ten years, even fighting that war of death and despair never made him this stirred up.
Sometimes, hope moves the heart even more than despair does!
It's irresistible.
"Of course. But right now, the only one who can get off-staff status may be you alone." Shen Yu smiled, glanced at the others, then continued, "But you guys don't need to be disappointed. Once my membership Level goes up, I'll have more and more off-staff slots."
Off-staff members—that was a concept Shen Yu had clearly brought up during a previous meeting.
Mainly, the purpose was to provide service for each Association member.
After all, Association members in each world need strong helpers too.
By leveraging the Association relationship, helpers can also get more power, and at the same time, have some extra restrictions and guarantees.
Although the exact rules aren't set yet, it's fine for Shen Yu to say it first.
