Dressed in identical military-style red attire, Legolas took the lead as he led the other Grade C Superhumans of the Nightmare Army through the carpet.
The atmosphere felt solemn as they walked through the carpet that led through the middle of the hall to its center.
The official opening ceremony of Legolas' army took place inside the Nightmare Army's new headquarters.
The headquarters was gigantic, housing 3 main mansions which served as the main base of operation of the 3 different divisions of the army.
Originally, Legolas opted for only 2 divisions. The main Nightmare Army base and the base that he dedicated to the Pugilist Division.
It was after speaking to Heimdall that he changed his mind. In the upcoming Cataclysm, there was a high chance that they were the underdogs. This was more than enough reason for them to try making use of any tricks in their books.
Assassination may seem dirty to some honorable warriors but it was undoubtedly one of the most effective tricks in the book, and Heimdall was a master at it. He was convinced to make an assassination division separate.
With a master of the dark arts like Heimdall taking helm over this division, there was no doubt that master assassins would be trained in a few years.
Apart from the 3 main mansions, there were other smaller buildings in the massive acre of land where different activities took place to keep the army running.
Today, the opening ceremony was being held in the main army mansion's large hall. The gigantic hall was mostly already filled with the privileged attendants today, and the high table was filled with familiar faces.
As Legolas and his subordinates walked in, looking towards the high table, he felt that this was a reunion of war veterans, these were all his war comrades.
From President Shanks, to Core Protector Daemon, to High Official Geralt, and even Emak, every Grade C survivor from the war was present.
President Shanks was already standing on the podium waiting for them.
A few seconds later, they were all standing before the President, they saluted to pay their respect before waiting for him to speak.
President Shanks faced the attendants with an energetic look on his face.
"Today is a special day in the history of our Planet". The President spoke. "Today, the most power-stacked organization in our history comes to existence".
"After having a talk with the High Officials, we all came to the conclusion that Legolas is a rare warrior that has what it takes to lead an organization of this magnitude after everything that he already achieved".
"During the prolonged war against the Clown Society, through his ingenuity, he was able to get information to provide us with that helped a lot in the war".
"Without his information, we would have never been able to determine the exact location of the Clown Society's headquarters on time".
"Not just that, during the real war, he also participated".
"During the battle of Hellfire Mountains, he was the stand-out warrior".
"Singlehandedly, he held us by the hand and led us out of the jaws of defeat, wrestling and snatching victory away from the grasp of our enemies".
"Post the war, he was the one to bring the concept of Democracy which has played an undeniable role in the current stability of the planet".
"Without a doubt, he has the best interests of our planet at heart".
President Shanks turned his head back to look at Legolas. "In light of his contributions, Legolas is recognized as a legend of our planet".
"And today, as a reward for all his contributions to the Planet, I officially acknowledge the existence of the Nightmare Army under his leadership".
President Shanks looked into his eyes. "Like you've done before, use the army to lead us right and defeat the enemies".
Legolas returned his gaze and he looked serious. "I will".
With that, the ceremony came to an end, simply that. There was no time for more complicated procedures, with that, the Nightmare Army became official.
Even as celebrations and refreshment followed, Legolas left the hall.
He took a brief tour around the headquarters of his organization, admiring the majesty and might in display. 'I sure have come a long way since the day that I reincarnated into this world that I co-created'.
'The God of Games never contacted me again but I feel he is out there somewhere. Is he really a god or is he just a high-grade Super?'
Despite it almost being 4 years already, his curiosity still burned hot.
'Also, Maximus, how can I make more contact with him?'
'In almost 4 years, I sure have achieved a lot, I just wonder if I have come any closer to knowing the truth about the mystery of my reincarnation'.
Amid his inner monologue, he soon arrived inside his office in the army.
Inside was painted grey and was decorated with drawings of different scenes from the Battle of Hellfire Mountains, highlighting his military achievements. Overall, the office exuded a thick military vibe.
As soon as he entered his office, Legolas felt a sense of serenity on his mind as he took a greedy breath of air before sitting down.
As soon as he sat down, he looked at the small metal Axe on his hand.
His virtual interface shimmered into existence on his willing.

[Arcanite Axe- High Official Mantle!]
[Arcanite Metal properties:]
>Durability: More than a hundred times more durable than normal metal when cleaned of all impurities<
>Light Weight: Even when tons of Arcanite Metal is used to create a mechanic suit, it barely increases the base weight due to it's light nature<
>Mechanic Resonance: Massively increases the resonance power and ability of high-grade mechanics<
>???<
>???<

Of the 7 main properties of Arcanite metal, he was only able to access the first 3 due to his current level and grade. Of the 3 that he was able to access though, the 3rd one told him the reason why this metal was valued so much.
Despite this not being his first time of seeing it, he still felt amazed.
'I never expected a metal that could increase resonance strength to hide in a backwater planet like Planet Darvis'.
Resonance strength was a more famous galatic term for Mechanic energy the same way there was Summoner energy and others. After building their powerful machines, Mechanics could resonate with them through their energy.
When resonating with a powerful Super, it was not unheard of for a weapon's base power to climb levels and increase in power by as much as 20×!
This was the power of Mechanics.
To Mechanics, any metal that could increase their resonance strength was a beauty, it explained the Nak's crazy interest and valuation of Arcanite metal.
'It's a pity there are no Mechanics in Planet Darvis'. Legolas sighed.
Still sitting down, Legolas kept the Arcanite Axe and opened a familiar bridge.

Bzzz!
The next moment, Predator, Bran, and Akela appeared before him. Warp Prime was already inside the office since, the mischievous Warpsnare shapeshifted, changing her body color to match those of the office.
The thing was that this time, the beasts didn't appear from the beast plane alone, they appeared with a different vibe exuding from them.
Predator's own was the most obvious, a red aura subtly covered the body of the Annihilation Nightmare Beast, exposing the other presence in his body.
Legolas grinned at seeing them. 'Finally, I've met the requirements as a proper Grade C Summoner'.
A week ago, he finally got all 4 of his beasts their companion Spirit Beasts.
After a journey deep into the Spirit Realm, he was able to subdue the beast Spirit companions for his beasts. Predator got a Soul Reaper Beast, a spirit beast that looked like a wolf but specialized in dealing soul and spirit damage.
Akela got a Spirit Eagle. This support type Spirit Beast not only augmented Akela's powers and his leadership abilities, it also gave him an extra eye from the skies, successfully curbing one of his weaknesses.
As for Bran, the Void Raven got a Spirit Golden Cicada, This support type Spirit Beast did not only give him a ridiculous amount of luck and a luck glow, it also gave Bran faster flight powers and speed when fused with him.
As for Warp Prime, the Warpsnare got a rare Shapeshifting Soul Butterfly.
The Soul Butterfly had 3 forms, with 2 support forms, one concerned with weakening his enemies while the other concerned with augmenting his powers in battle while the last one was a battle maniac intent in causing destruction.
Seated on his chair in his office, Legolas had a satisfied look on his face as he observed his beasts and their Spirit Beast companions but something happened.
BOOM!
Legolas first heard it as it roughly broke into the planet's gravity.
"What?!" Legolas was alarmed.
BOOM!
When another mighty sound reverberated, it was against the ground as the hot load of the Battleship-grade cannon caused an instant earthquake on the planet, killing a lot of people on the spot.
Legolas was horrified. "A Spaceship?!"
"So fast?!"
