Bai Fu didn't rush to reply to the Leader; she still had some preparations to make.

Half a year had passed since Yuan Yi's peace summit, and now she could use the "True Name" once again.

The one she had chosen was the little Black Fu, which, after several rounds of evolution, had been upgraded to a Red Card.

The reason she chose little Black Fu over Black Fu was that Black Fu was a very special Twin True Spirit, to whom the "True Name" was inapplicable.

In fact, even if Black Fu could be granted a True Name, considering the buffs present when she was, and her ability to fully copy her own attributes, skills, and talents, Bai Fu wouldn't use "True Name" on her either, because this boon would instead weaken her own power.

Little Black Fu was more suitable.

Bai Fu's Spiritual Ability Army was actually divided into two parts.

One part was the Combat Legion she carried with her.

The other part was the Logistics Army, scattered across Ulysses and the second base; the members of this army were in charge of producing Prayer Cards, running special stores, maintaining order, and other tasks.

The former was now under the command of Shadow Fu, while the latter still lacked a true overall commander.

Bai Fu herself definitely didn't have the time to direct the Logistics Army's work, so she needed to enlighten a little Black Fu to assist her with these tasks.

This little Black Fu didn't need to be very strong in battle, as she was meant to be the "Contractor," "Workshop Director," "Security Captain," and "Store Street Manager."

Therefore, the development direction Bai Fu had arranged for her was that of an "Auxiliary-type Spiritual Ability Prayer Master," majoring in "Blazing" attribute Spiritual Energy, ready to boost other True Spirits with various buffs at any time, making each of them work more efficiently than two.

"Have you understood your job responsibilities?"

"Yes, Sister, just rest assured, under my management, not a single True Spirit will dare to slack off!"

The little Black Fu, who fancied herself the "Black King," crossed her arms and floated mid-air, looking remarkably smug.

So young and yet so scheming, what would she become when she grew up?

"This child takes after me, indeed!"

Bai Fu felt very satisfied with the outcome of the enlightenment.

After organizing production and other logistics tasks, she urgently contacted Silver Zhu.

To ensure the smooth execution of her mission, she planned to obtain some energy-concealing devices from Silver Zhu, making it impossible to distinguish her from Black Fu.

Silver Zhu didn't hesitate and immediately sent the devices to the second base.

After receiving the items from Silver Zhu, Bai Fu met with Andras and obtained a number of advanced shipboard aircraft and radar equipment.

"Actually, I'm not too keen on you getting involved with the Honorable Force, but... knowing your penchant for jumping into action at the sight of injustice, I realize there's no point in persuading you, so... fair winds on your journey, Saintess Bai Fu. I'll have a celebration ready for your return."

Andras sighed deeply.

Bai Fu smiled, "Don't worry, I'll definitely return alive, and not just that, when I come back, I'll bring you a huge surprise. I guarantee the investments you've made on me won't be wasted!"

Andras shook his head with a wry smile.

He wasn't worried about his investments in Bai Fu as much as the concern that such a genius dying would be a great pity.

Bai Fu didn't need to deal with the Glorious Army; however outrageous the Glorious Army's acts were, they couldn't affect her. But what could she do? She was the Saintess.

Such universal love was truly awe-inspiring!

Half a month later.

Within the Tem Civilization, Bai Fu spread the news that, on the Leader's commission, she would enter the Tem Civilization as an invited Combat Department to strike at the Glorious Army.

Everyone was talking about this matter.

Considering Bai Fu's experience in the Sea Lion Star System and her Radiant deeds of thrashing the Glorious Army in the Dark Domain, a majority of the Tem People who had suffered under the Glorious Army cheered with joy.

"Finally, someone reliable has arrived!"

While praising Bai Fu, many people also praised the Leader, saying that he had made the right decision.

Although inviting Bai Fu to strike at a terrorist organization might embarrass the Tem Civilization, considering the internal conflict of the past year, the Tem Civilization was already embarrassed; losing a bit more face seemed irrelevant so long as the problem was resolved.

There were also many who felt concerned about this matter.

What was the Leader up to?

Ever since it became probable that the Leader was connected to the Rebirth Empire, the various forces vying for control in this part of the starry sky paid close attention to every move he made, convinced that the Leader's invitation to Bai Fu to strike at the Glorious Army definitely had deeper demands.

Apart from Bai Fu, the Leader, and those directly involved, no one else was clear about the situation; they could only continue to watch.

The matter of Bai Fu's campaign against the Glorious Army was important, but for most people, the progress of the civil war was even more critical.

...

"The direction of public opinion is quite good."

Bai Fu browsed the news on websites.

Over this half month, her reputation within the Tem Civilization and throughout the whole Edge World had seen a rapid surge.

All of this was thanks to the Leader.

Since accepting the Leader's commission, he had secretly instructed his subordinates to hype up the matter on various platforms.

Bai Fu believed that as the fight with the Glorious Army kicked off, the Leader would promote the event even more vigorously, intending to elevate her reputation in the Tem Civilization to that of a national idol.

Because only in this way, when the news of her being taken down by the Glorious Army spread, the resulting waves of public opinion would reach new heights; riding the crest of these waves, the Leader, by "avenging" her defeat, could soar even higher.
