Chapter 21

"Actually, it's not that there aren't any." Li Wenfu said with a normal expression, "The Flying General level is the terminal force of a federation, and it's impossible for their identities to be public. Even if they make it to the list, they will still train on the General Network. In the Azure Star Alliance's regional network, they won't show up."

"Can't the Magic Network hide identities?" Du Nan was a bit worried.

Li Wenfu nodded.

Then he added, "That's right, the Magic Network is unmonitored. But once a name appears in the General Zone of the Azure Network, even if it's called Cat or Dog, countless people will search for its origin. They might not find anything on the Magic Network, but in reality, they can analyze a lot. You should know, there aren't many top-tier Diamond-class Armorsmiths in the Azure Star Alliance."

"Is that so." Du Nan glanced at the Diamond Zone, which had only a little over 500 accounts.

He thought: If someone from the General Zone makes it to the list, they must be one of these 500. To sift through and verify 500 identities out of the tens of trillions of people in the entire Azure Star Alliance is impossible. But to verify one person out of 500 is much simpler. Even if the authorities only guess the corresponding account, they have plenty of means to dig deeper.

Thinking this way, he felt incredibly safe. As long as he didn't cause a big stir, no one would know.

"Many merchants will seek out famous warriors," Lu Sheng added. Just because the Magic Network is safe doesn't mean no one will 'bother' you. Other registered Magic Warriors can contact you for communication, friendship, or just to chat. If your name is 'lonely' in the General Zone, it would be strange if no one bothered you.

Du Nan understood more clearly. The Azure Regional Network didn't have a War King Zone or a War God Zone because they were redundant. The General Zone of the Seven Stars had no one, and the Eight and Nine Stars were even less likely to have anyone. He believed that the superpowers of the major star alliances also mixed in the General Network.

"Brother Du, are you still worried about the safety of the Magic Network?" Li Wenfu observed his expression and asked.

Du Nan deliberately nodded without speaking. Li Wenfu and Lu Sheng both smiled, seemingly not surprised by his thoughts. Then Li Wenfu opened a page in the Diamond Zone, which displayed: Blue Sea Star Revolutionary Longtu, Diamond Ninth-Class Soldier.

"Is he a member of the Revolutionary Army?"

Du Nan hadn't heard of Longtu's name but knew about the Revolutionary Army.

Li Wenfu laughed, "Not just that, Longtu is the current leader of the rebel Revolutionary Army. One of the most wanted figures by the Blue Sea Federation's government and military. Brother Du, don't think this account is fake. You can hide your information, but no one can fake it on the Magic Network. This account is registered by Longtu to collect funds."

"Collect funds?" Du Nan was puzzled. A rebel openly raising funds, who would dare to do business with him?

At this moment,

Lu Sheng spoke, "Brother Du, this is normal. Any famous person will have merchants seeking them out. The Magic Network is a shared information platform across the entire starry sky, a region watched by countless people. Posting an advertisement or business information here is a hundred million times better than anywhere else."

"But the Revolutionary Army..." Du Nan didn't finish, falling silent.

He suddenly realized that Longtu, the rebel leader, was merely a 'criminal' of the Blue Sea Federation. To the entire Azure Star Alliance and the entire starry sky, he was nothing. In the eyes of some hostile forces, he might even be a hero. If there were forces within the Azure Star Alliance unfriendly to the Blue Sea Federation, they wouldn't mind 'funding' the Revolutionary Army to disrupt the Blue Sea political situation.

To some wealthy merchants and enterprises: what does the federation have to do with me? As long as the benefits are substantial, even if it means a change in government, it's a small matter.

"I understand."

Du Nan felt relieved. The Magic Network was indeed an 'unmonitored' area. The leader of the rebel Revolutionary Army openly raising funds online, yet the Blue Sea government had no way to stop it. They couldn't trace any login points or sources of funds. Knowing he was doing this and still unable to prevent it, the level of security was sufficient for his use.

"Does Little Lu have an account?" Li Wenfu, seeing Du Nan relax, turned to ask Lu Sheng.

"Yes."

Lu Sheng familiarly activated the machine, logged in, and displayed 'White Iron First-Class Soldier, Black Mountain Cat.'

Li Wenfu remained calm, but Du Nan was puzzled and asked, "Little Lu, didn't you say you hadn't fused with a one-star core? Why does it show White Iron Armorsmith strength? Did you just update it?"

"No, no, no."

Lu Sheng, hearing Du Nan's question, quickly shook his head and explained, "Brother Du, White Iron Armorsmith and White Iron First-Class Soldier are two different things. Armorsmith is a military rank in reality, while First-Class Soldier is a combat index on the Magic Network. White Iron First-Class Soldier is the lowest level in the network. On the Magic Network, there is no such level as an Awakened. Each region is the same, with the first class being the lowest and the ninth class being the highest."

"Oh, I see."

In reality, many people who have awakened to Magic Power but haven't fused with a core don't have an Awakened level on the Magic Network. Du Nan suddenly remembered what he learned in class: the Magic Warrior military ranks are divided into nine star levels and eighteen grades, with each star level distinguished by 'Armorsmith' and 'Armor Master.' The official titles for the one-star White Iron level include 'One-Star White Iron Armorsmith' and 'One-Star White Iron Armor Master.'

As for the Magic Network...

The strength is divided more finely, with nine levels from White Iron First-Class Soldier to White Iron Ninth-Class Soldier.

"White Iron First-Class Soldiers are usually Awakened who haven't fused with a core. Once they fuse, there will be changes. If they can't climb to the Second-Class Soldier position, then it's really..." Li Wenfu glanced at the 'Lu Sheng First-Class Soldier' beside him, but swallowed his mocking words. Lu Sheng had just fused, and if he couldn't reach the Second-Class Soldier, it would hurt his friend.

Lu Sheng smiled, not minding. He had a confident look, as if reaching the Second-Class Soldier wasn't a big deal.

"I'm done." Du Nan input Ice Magic Power, and the machine's gauge displayed a set of special numbers and an ice crystal snowflake pattern, followed by a blank box: "What do I do next?"

"Name it. Anything goes, but it's better to keep it short." Li Wenfu added, "Don't worry about duplicate names; the Magic Network only recognizes passwords."

"Okay." Du Nan thought for a moment and named his account 'Traveler.' The Magic Network only recognized passwords, meaning that even if there were a thousand 'Traveler' accounts on the Azure Network, his login would still be his own. The name was just a display name, unrelated to the account information, and could be changed at any time.

After naming,

The gauge immediately displayed 'White Iron First-Class Soldier, Traveler.'

"Wait, add us as teammates." Li Wenfu and Lu Sheng both added this new account and explained, "In the future, you can only add teammates or enemies through 'sight' or 'contact,' either in reality or online. Account names are invalid and can't be added."

Next,

"Lie down, Brother Du, just like taking a nap. We'll meet inside using the teleport function." Li Wenfu demonstrated by lying down, and the machine slowly closed, transforming into a nutrient pod. Du Nan's machine gauge received a 'Shield Dragon' mark summon.

Du Nan also lay down, and a stream of information flashed in his mind.

In the next second, he found himself in a spatial strategic station. In the distance, tens of thousands of armored warriors were moving about.

Occasionally, white light would shine down.

In the light columns, figures gradually appeared.

Ding!

A prompt sounded in Du Nan's ear. After confirming, the light flowed, and in a blink, he was in an open training ground. Li Wenfu and Lu Sheng were already waiting. Both were wearing armor, looking exceptionally heroic. It had to be said that, whether in reality or on the Magic Network, the design of the armor was exquisite, making one feel an urge to possess it.

"Open the equipment system, put on the armor, and don't take any weapons yet," Li Wenfu reminded.

Du Nan followed the instructions and equipped the armor.

In a moment,

The light flowed, and he was now wearing a white armor.

"Brother Du, it's your first training, so I need to explain a few things," Li Wenfu's armor projected a set of light, saying, "For the same level of armor, the attack, defense, material, and flexibility are the same. What differs is the Magic Power you possess. For example, I have a Turbulent Stream core, which serves as a second power furnace..."

A humming sound.

Li Wenfu's armor began to change slightly, becoming more powerful, with a strange energy surrounding it.

"This is my true combat strength as a White Iron Fourth-Class Soldier," Li Wenfu demonstrated and then projected six sets of light, saying, "Brother Du, next, I need to explain the six combat roles in the Magic Network, which are also the same in reality, commonly known as the six warrior roles."
