As the pinnacle of angelic civilization, developed over countless billions of years, the Sky Blade series battleships represent the height of technology. Few vessels in the universe could compare to their power and sophistication.
But for Leon, Sky Blade No. 7 wasn't enough. He craved more. Why can't I get the entire Merlot Star itself—the heart of the angel civilization—from the sign-in? The complete Merlot Star, after all, was the true center of angelic power.
Ding!
A cold, ethereal voice echoed in Leon's mind:
"Positioning complete. Leon, person with the highest authority."
Leon narrowed his eyes. "Open the wormhole and send me to Sky Blade No. 7."
"The wormhole is open."
WHOOSH!
As soon as the voice finished, ripples surrounded Leon, and in an instant, he vanished.
The next moment, a bright light filled his vision, and he found himself standing in a stunning, majestic hall. It was a place of such beauty and artistry that it seemed impossible for humans to have crafted it. The smooth floor gleamed, and a long red carpet stretched from the entrance to a grand staircase leading to a throne.
Four intricately carved stone pillars supported the hall, and the entire space was bathed in radiant light.
Whoosh!
As Leon admired the hall, a beautiful, ethereal figure appeared before him. She was breathtakingly gorgeous, her beauty beyond words. Her long golden hair cascaded down her slender neck, and she wore gleaming silver armor that barely contained her large chest. Sacred white wings spread from her back, and she donned a red skirt with silver combat boots on her legs. She glowed with a holy light.
Upon seeing Leon, the angel immediately placed her right fist over her chest in a salute, her red lips parting to deliver a melodic, ethereal greeting.
"Welcome, Captain Leon."
Leon stared at her, slightly hesitant. "And you are...?"
"My name is Keisha, a fragment of memory data from the original captain of Sky Blade No. 7, here to assist the new captain," Keisha explained. Although she called herself memory data, her eyes and subtle expressions made her seem almost alive, more like a real person than just a simulation.
Leon recalled that Keisha had been a high-ranking angel, with over fifteen thousand years of history. He knew better than to underestimate her.
He went straight to the point, asking the question that mattered most to him. "Are there any other angelic genes or memory data in the Sky Blade's database?"
"None," Keisha replied.
Leon was a bit disappointed, but he quickly moved on. "I need a detailed explanation of all the functions of Sky Blade No. 7."
Without hesitation, Keisha responded softly, "The memories are ready to be linked. Do you accept them?"
"Accept!" Leon said immediately.
Weng!
A flood of memories surged into Leon's mind. Thankfully, his strong mental will shielded him from any pain or discomfort. Instead, he quickly absorbed the information.
Sky Blade No. 7 was a cutting-edge weapon of the Angel Civilization, a marvel of their advanced technology.
Sky Blade No. 7 is equipped with incredibly powerful strike capabilities. Its lower blade alone can easily split a planet in two. In Earth terms, it's like a celestial computer with immense computational power. This allows it to locate and track targets across multiple galaxies effortlessly.
On both sides of the ship are dense sky windows, which act as crossing points between distant worlds. The ship's built-in engine can unleash devastating forces, such as triggering solar winds, capable of wiping out even the strongest opponents. However, this requires an enormous amount of energy, which the Sky Blade can only absorb through dark energy from the universe. As a result, this massive destructive power has a cooldown period between uses.
One limitation Leon faces is that, while he has full command over Sky Blade No. 7, he lacks the angelic gene to fully connect with the ship's engine. Angels, like Angel Yan, can use this connection to enhance their combat abilities, but Leon cannot tap into that potential directly.
Fortunately, the ship can still provide long-distance support. Through a specialized algorithm connection, Leon can control advanced Earth technology, using the power of his Glint-Glint Fruit as a driving force. For example, he can perform a technique called "Flare Bombing," which harnesses Yang Technology's firepower to devastating effect.
In essence, Leon, with his admiral-level combat abilities, can leverage the support of Sky Blade No. 7 to launch attacks that could obliterate Earth's surface. With external help from the ship, he even has the power to destroy planets.
It's a pity that Sky Blade No. 7 doesn't contain the memory or genetic data of other angels. Otherwise, Leon could have potentially resurrected those powerful and beautiful beings. But fortunately, Leon isn't that greedy.
For now, Sky Blade No. 7 is more than enough to satisfy him. Still, he can't help but think that maybe, one day, he'll sign in and get Merlot Star itself. Who knows? Perhaps a beautiful angel army will be his in the future. Hehehe.
Of course, this was just Leon's wishful thinking. After all, what man could resist the idea of commanding an army of powerful and beautiful angelic warriors? It would be like heaven.
Leon, being human, wasn't above such fantasies. But now that he fully understood the immense power of Sky Blade No. 7, his original plans had to evolve.
Thanks to the sign-in system, he had spent years evading enemies with Wanda and the group of children he had rescued, working tirelessly to build a home in the Ural Mountains. He started from nothing, using the breathing technique to nurture and train them.
Now he had a house, a car, a private jet—and even a battleship.
With such power at his disposal, Leon realized his need for secrecy could be lessened, though his ultimate goal remained unchanged. He was still on the path to becoming a god. In fact, he now had the resources to compete with the gods themselves.
