“Of course, under certain circumstances, your priority will still be supporting my squad. This mission is also an opportunity for the various Celestial Army squads to compete for military merit.”
Everyone nodded. They understood.
Even if they were allies, military merit was still worth fighting over.
Smiling, Toby added, “I’m not sending you out as cannon fodder. You’ll be taking part in the mission as well.”
“In fact, I’m willing to tell you the mission’s true objective, but you must promise not to reveal it to anyone else, including other squads.”
“It’s classified information. That’s the whole reason you were brought here.”
Everyone nodded. They still had no idea what kind of mission this was, but it already felt like something enormous.
“Let me explain the second part of the mission first. Military Command will issue an official mission later, so it won’t be just your squads participating. Teams from other major metro cities, as well as squads from Quitas, will be joining the mission.”
“However, only the specially selected squads, like yours, will know the mission’s true objective.”
“You are not to disclose it. Ideally, you shouldn’t even tell the rest of your teammates.”
“Can you do that?”
Everyone nodded without hesitation.
Toby nodded before saying gravely, “The Celestial Army members have discovered what appears to be traces of the Ember Sacred Sword near Mount Solaria.”
The moment those words left his mouth, every member’s eyes widened in shock.
Shock rippled through everyone in the room.
The Ember Sacred Sword!
Everyone felt a chill run down their spine. None of them had expected news of this magnitude.
The revelation left them completely stunned.

It was a sacred artifact said to hold the key to becoming a Divine Eternal.
And somehow… they were being allowed to take part?
Instantly, everyone’s eyes burned with excitement, except Steven.
He, however, looked a little dazed.
He never expected it to be a fragment of the Ember Sacred Artifact…
But something wasn’t right. According to his memories, both the fragment and Bianca’s legendary battle weren’t supposed to happen yet.
It was supposed to happen much later.
So why had it appeared now?
Steven frowned. The timeline didn’t match.
Had his reincarnation changed the course of history?
His thoughts churned, but there was no time to dwell on them.
Early or late didn’t matter. He had to claim it.

Besides, their original plan had already been to claim it while passing through Heavenspire Peak on the way to Quitas.
Now they would just go with the flow.
Toby continued, “This mission is of critical importance. The primary issue is that our Celestial Army squads have become trapped deep within the Mount Solaria range. With no support available, we had no choice but to reveal this information.”
“To put it simply, you’ll also be authorized to search for the fragment of the Ember Sacred Sword. If any of you manage to find it, you may even receive the Divine Eternal’s commendation.”
ing that, everyone grew even more excited. Some were already imagining themselves

Why would they entrust something tied directly to the Divine Eternal to them?
Were they really just cannon fodder?
That really was arrogant. He was claiming he could take down a level 44 Divine General with a single punch.

Toby nodded in satisfaction. “Good. Since this is an emergency, we’ll skip the usual procedures. My adjutant will brief you on everything we know. After that, return to your squads, gather your people, and deploy immediately!”
