Chapter 472: The Authority of the War Zone, Grand Marshal Mu's Means of Motivation (4K)
Red Mountain City outskirts.
In the darkness of the night, a beam of starlight descended upon an unnamed hill, outlining a Starry Sky Gate three meters high and two meters wide.
Mu Yuan stepped through the gate, adorned with dazzling starlight, and with a slight feeling of spatial rotation and a discomfort of shifting worlds, he had traversed the dimensions.
"This is really convenient."
The Isloa-brand teleportation spell, Lord Shepherd found it quite impressive.
As he stepped onto the land of Red Mountain City, the familiar system notification also timely sounded.
"Ding!"
"Notification: You have entered the Shattered Island War Zone."
"Notification: Your Tai Xuan Alliance faction identity has been detected, you may receive the following benefits:"
"①: Energy Recovery Speed +200%."
"②: Elemental Affinity +20%."
"③: Control Ability of the Power of Heaven and Earth +20%."
"④: Cultivation Speed +10%."
"..."
"Notification: You have been granted the identification of an ally."
"..."
"Notification: Your current identity is Regional Commander of the Shattered Island War Zone, which entitles you to a 2.5 times base benefit enhancement."
"Notification: You may appoint designated Lords, military types, and Professionals to hold important positions (number restricted), appointees may receive 1.2~1.8 times base benefit."
"Notification: You have acquired the Regional Commander's authorities 'Universal Celestial Sound (10/10)', 'Supreme Commander's Divine Sight (10/10)', and 'Power of the War Zone (2/2)'."
"Notification: During the holding of the Supreme Commander's authority, you possess the highest administrative rights over the Miracle Buildings within the war zone, and the Miracle Territories within the war zone can be partially treated as your own territory."
"Notification: You may review the war zone information, exchange item information, and you have the right to make some adjustments on this basis."
"Notification: You can initiate wars of expansion. During the war, based on the number of enemies killed by Lords, military types, and Professionals of the entire war zone, you may obtain additional contributions."
"Notification:..."
The notifications followed one after another, so many that Mu Yuan just stood there, dazed for several seconds.
He was so dazed that Isloa even stretched out her hand, waving it before his face.
For a Lord to be so dazed, it was quite exhausting for her.
"Notification: Would you like to appoint 'Isloa (Hero)' for the third-ranking position in the Shattered Island War Zone? This position enjoys..."
Isloa was stunned right there.
A third-ranking position was just below Vice Commander, holding high authority in the War Zone, with the power to directly take over the control of many Miracle Buildings if necessary, as well as command, administrative, and appointment rights, among others.
Even those in high positions such as Vice Commanders couldn't command other Lords' troops.
My soldiers' soldiers are not my soldiers.
But in times of need, the commander could directly command the Frontier Lords of his own war zone.
There were also sealed areas within the war zone, which only those with high authority could freely enter and exit.
The third-ranking position was the highest position Mu Yuan could offer, and the number was very limited, but he needed Isloa's help to significantly reduce the massive workload.
The higher-ranking positions he held could also be used to curry favor with powerful Frontier Lords.
However, that would be considered later; there weren't even enough positions for his own Division Generals.
Mu Yuan sorted through the authorities of the Regional Commander one by one.
The appointment authority, he had already tried on Isloa.
"In terms of regular benefits, the Shattered Island War Zone doesn't compare to the Hangu Mountain Great War Zone, which is normal, but surprisingly, the difference isn't too big."
"I personally can obtain up to 2.5 times the basic benefits."

For instance, in the control ability of the Power of Heaven and Earth, he had gained a 50% increase.
This increase was based on his own optimal state, further enhanced.
Not a hint of diluted benefits.
For his own combat power, this was quite a significant and enormous improvement.
The stronger one was, the greater the benefits received.
However, in the Legendary Third Realm, the influence of the Power of Heaven and Earth on combat power was rather low.
"There are three authorities in the commander's warfare: Universal Celestial Sound, Supreme Commander's Divine Sight, and Power of the War Zone, but all come with a limit on the number of uses."
Universal Celestial Sound is like an all-channel megaphone; the wider the war zone, the more powerful it is, usable in emergencies for war zone-wide announcements.
For Mu Yuan, however, it wasn't very useful.
He was a man with a Mental Skynet.
"Supreme Commander's Divine Sight is similar to a Lord's overview vision but possesses powerful insight abilities, capable of uncovering formidable monsters hidden in the waves, it's just that the uses are too few to employ in regular battles."
"The Power of the War Zone is also an upgraded version of the Lord's Power, a grand move that draws upon the power of all forces to stabilize the battle situation."
The monster power was, in reality, far stronger than that of humans.
Humans manage to contend with terrifying overlords using their limited power, relying on the right time and place. This right time is the authority bestowed by Heaven and Earth.
The will of Heaven and Earth in Eternal World stands with the living beings.
Mu Yuan checked the information about the Shattered Island War Zone again.
Being a newly established war zone, the Shattered Island War Zone encompassed a very small area.
The Hangu Mountain Great War Zone spans tens of thousands of miles.
The Shattered Island War Zone? It spanned only Red Mountain City and a few hundred miles beyond.
However, the scope of the Shattered Island War Zone wasn't just this; he saw that the war zone could still 'spread' and 'expand,', but to exercise this authority, he needed the support of at least two Vice Commanders.
Of course, only he, the commander, was entitled to exercise this authority.
"Shattered Island War Zone"
"Possesses Miracle Territory: 22 locations, total area..."
"War Zone Pioneers→Dropdown to Unfold←"
"Supreme Commander: Tianyuan (Legendary Earth Realm)"
"Vice Commander: Green Mountain (Legendary Soul Realm)"
"Vice Commander: Rain Dust (Legendary Earth Realm)"
"Vice Commander: Broken Rock (Legendary Earth Realm)"
Mu Yuan: "..."
Hold on, let's sort this out.
Is our war zone's strength perhaps a bit too weak?
