Chapter 99: Valor Temple

The ascentionists in the federation were few in number compared to this population, about 1% of the citizens of the federation were of tier D or higher, obviously the military authorities did everything to recruit them and integrate them into the army, After all, it was a real strategic asset to have them, as a rule they served as military commissioners within the army forces in order to inspire the troops and in case of need to liquidate possible deserters, so they were called SuperSoldiers within the armed forces. ..

.

Apophis was here because he would have without doubt books of competence for this class... Besides it saw quite a lot of players in the temple, it was one of the zone of meeting favoured for the players on Terra...

.

But unlike the vast majority of players, Apophis was a senior officer in the federal army... . So he had more skills than any other player.

.

Apophis went to the building's archivist and asked him for an account of the skill books for sale that he had available for the Espers.

.

There were more than 2700 skill books available for Espers alone, this was obviously way too many, anyone would have taken several hours before even getting interested in a particular book.

.

But fortunately Apophis had the experience of his old life, if not he would have spent several weeks before finding a skill that he liked ...

.

So he spoke to the archivist and said:

.

"I wish to buy the Book of the Dead..."

.

The archivist was quite surprised, usually the buyer would take tens of minutes or even hours before buying, but in just a few seconds he had made his decision, the archivist looked at him and said:

.

"Oh I'm sorry Lieutenant Colonel, but this book is a unique edition...".

.

Apophis replied:

.

"So it is not on sale at the moment?"

.

The archivist replied:

.

"Yes, but it is considered a collector's item, and with the processing fees and my management fees, it will probably cost a lot of money..."

.

Apophis replied:

.

"How much?"

.

The archist replied:

.

"780,000 GC!"

.

It was a total rip-off! It was the price of a Corvette spaceship! But Apophis really needed the skill of this book before the battle on Cronos I started, so he tried something...

.

He answered in Zetark :

.

"One Empire, One People, One Destiny"

.

The archivist was extremely surprised... It was one of the rallying codes of the Supremacists, he answered in Zetark :

.

"Glory to the Empire!"

.

Then in common language :

.

"Well, comrade! I'm sorry I tried to rip you off, I took you for a cosmopolitan dog... I can offer you 215.000 GC for this collection book! I can't sell it to you any lower, sorry...It's a book that hasn't been reproduced since the last war..."

.

Apophis accepted and took the book.

.

It was time for him to leave the temple, he can only buy one book a month...

.

He then went to the military airfield of Terra...
