# Chapter 5: Blood·Soul Power (Passive. Lv.55+9): The held weapon is imbued with soul-burning power. Each attack inflicts 110 points of true damage, and has a 1.3% to 2% chance of causing the enemy to experience body numbness, stiffness, and other conditions (100,000 soldier units can trigger this bonus).
...
It was not surprising that the "War Skill Awakening" ability of the War Lord was absent. Furthermore, all these bonuses were currently displayed in gray, indicating they were not yet activated. They could only be activated when there were enough soldier-type units under Viper's command.
Su Xiao suddenly had a thought — could it be that his luck had exploded this time, and he had recruited a once-in-a-lifetime excellent general? Adopting a try-it-and-see attitude, he checked Fanged Tooth's information, and then... also saw the "Command Potential" ability.
"Command Potential (Passive·B-Rank): Can inherit the auras, war-type abilities, and other effects of the commanding unit. 50% of these effects are applied to the soldier-type units under command..."
Seeing this, Su Xiao knew that it wasn't that his luck had exploded, but that most Orc leader-level units in this world possessed this ability. Thinking that this place was a Transcendent Primordial World, and considering how many years the Orcs and the Sea Race had been fighting each other, he suddenly felt that this seemingly exaggerated ability was actually quite normal. The two sides had indeed been locked in conflict for far too long, fighting from the era of aberrant beasts all the way to the present.
Moreover, both Viper and Fanged Tooth were not without ability; it was because of their notorious records that no one was willing to give them important positions. Not to mention anything else, when checking the information of these two, Su Xiao saw that Viper's loyalty was 10 points, and Fanged Tooth's was 15 points.
This was not due to the recruitment method being wrong. Opening their loyalty information to check, when they had served the previous lord, Viper's loyalty was 7 points, and Fanged Tooth's was 8 points. For the lord before that, Viper was 5 points, and Fanged Tooth was 6 points.
Looking at it this way, the two of them were actually feeling a bit of awe this time because of Su Xiao's -18 Charm Attribute. This was the highest loyalty they had ever shown after pledging allegiance.
Su Xiao switched back to the Sun Lord title, glanced at "Elite Unit Loyalty Increased by 70 Points (50 elite units can trigger this effect)," and felt much more at ease. 10 + 70 = 80 points, 15 + 70 = 85 points. It seemed that Viper and Fanged Tooth could become loyal subordinates in the future.
"You two, do you know any colleagues with command talent?"
Hearing this, both Viper and Fanged Tooth showed hesitation in their eyes. Fanged Tooth said, "You speak."
"I won't speak. If I recommend the wrong person, I'll still have to be punished."
"Just spit it out if you have something to say."
Finding that Su Xiao spoke coldly, Fanged Tooth quickly put down his wine glass and said, "Sir, there really is such a person. When it comes to command talent, even in this Iron Fort City, he is among the best."
"Oh? There's talent like this?"
"Yes, his name is Urgin. We were in the same legion before. His command talent was so strong that he almost led the Orc warriors under him to chop down the legion's leader."
"What the hell, a turncoat."
"No, no, he just wanted to be the leader himself."
"That's still a turncoat."
Baha showed a hint of worry. Recruiting Viper and Fanged Tooth, two guys whose loyalty combined didn't even reach 30 points, was already strange enough. And this Urgin that the two were talking about — no matter how you listened to it, his loyalty couldn't be high.
"Lead the way."
Su Xiao spoke. He was particularly short of people right now, so even if it was a turncoat, or someone with an even worse record, it would be fine. With the effect of the Sun Lord suppressing them, at least he could be sure they wouldn't stab him in the back.
When the sky began to turn fish-belly white, in the slums of Iron Fort City, in front of the back door of a two-story building.
Thump thump thump!
Fanged Tooth pounded on the door with his fist. After a moment, a dull thud sounded as the door was kicked open, almost slapping Fanged Tooth in the face. A figure about two and a half meters tall, holding an iron rod stained with dried blood, stood in the darkness inside the door.
This person had a lion-like mane of wild hair cascading down his back. His strong upper body was covered in scars. From his appearance, he was a pure-blooded Orc. So-called pure-blooded Orcs were a race that had existed since the Dark Age. Only they had inherited a trace of the bloodline of the last era's overlord, the Pure-Blooded Human Race.
Therefore, this man's appearance was closer to that of a human, but he had the blood of the Orc race flowing within him. The dark golden vertical pupils in his eyes made him look even more powerful.
"So it's you two. Come to hide from debt?"
"No, we're here to introduce someone. This is Lord White Night, a lord."
Viper spoke. Hearing this, the expression in Urgin's eyes changed. He asked, "You came to me to..."
"We plan to invite you to join..."
Before Baha could finish his words, Urgin showed surprise and delight in his eyes, saying, "No need to say more. I'll join."
"Uh..."
Baha's recruitment speech was choked back. This recruitment was far too simple. What surprised it even more was that after Viper took out a contract scroll and a contract pen, Urgin examined the contract's contents and then signed his name with a flourish.
"White Night... cough, Lord, please come in."
Urgin stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation. Entering the room, Su Xiao found it unexpectedly tidy and simple. As soon as he sat down, Urgin served a cup of strong tea and sat down opposite him with a smile.
Su Xiao checked Urgin's information and found that this guy's abilities comprehensively surpassed those of Viper and Fanged Tooth. His strength was very close to that of an Orc chieftain. Moreover, his "Command Potential" was:
"Command Potential (Passive·S-Rank): Can inherit the auras, war-type abilities, and other effects of the commanding unit. 95% of these effects are applied to the soldier-type units under command. Even at an extremely long distance from the commanding unit, this ability continues to take effect (this ability's rank is E to S-Rank)."
Such talent, and it was recruited so simply. Su Xiao continued to check his information and knew why it was so simple. Because Urgin's loyalty was:
Loyalty: -20 points.
Seeing this loyalty, Su Xiao glanced at Viper and Fanged Tooth. The loyalty of the three combined was -20 + 10 + 15 = 5 points. Good heavens, the loyalty of all three together didn't even reach double digits.
