Caelus opened the Faction interface and began scrolling through the features.
The Combat Score Kit was still there, automatically granting faction members a permanent +1 Combat Score every time they leveled up within the faction.
There was even a small chance to spike up to +5 every ten levels.
The Benefit Creation Kit remained unchanged as well, allowing him to write custom benefits tied to faction levels or other common benefits.
Of course, some of these benefits were limited by his own power.
He couldn’t grant an Aura Tier 15 benefit unless his own Aura had reached that rank first.
The Quest Giver and Reward Giver Kits worked together to automatically generate, assign, and distribute rewards for faction-exclusive quests.
Things like killing a certain number of enemies or gathering specific resources.
"Good," Caelus muttered. "These are all still here."
Then, he moved onto the next section.
[The Pillar Gacha System]
Pillars were the absolute ultimate powerhouses of a faction, acting as supreme guardians similar to how Archangels served the God of Boundless Light.
Faction Leaders could acquire Pillar Gacha Rolls by completing quests or leveling up their Faction Rank.
The gacha allowed pulls for random guardians or targeting specific civilizations like angels or demons.
Rarity scaled from White to Red.
White Rarity granted basic pillars with a potential cap at Crown-rank.
Red Rarity granted legendary God-rank potential pillars like Archangels, Calamity Demons, or Deus Ex Machina.
Pillar Potential Cards could be pulled to permanently upgrade a regular summon or retainer into a Pillar.
Pillar Stardust converted low-tier or duplicate pulls into recyclable currency, with 100 stardust equaling one new gacha roll.
But then Caelus saw the cost section.
Keeping a God-Tier Red Pillar summoned and active required immense resources.
Sustaining the Deus Ex Machina Jibril alone needed 5 million Faith Power per day and a minimum of 5 million faction members.
Faith Power was passively generated daily based on the faction’s active population.
Most features remained the same on the surface level, but one critical difference caught his attention immediately.
Reputation Points were no longer the currency for purchases or pulls.
Instead, everything required Contribution Points.
He checked the current balance.
[Contribution Points: 0]
His eye twitched violently.
How will he obtain Contribution Points?
Players earned them by completing quests, and with every bit of level EXP they gained, they also received Contribution Points automatically.
But as the faction leader, he couldn’t earn them himself.
He had to make his fellow faction members work.
"I have to make them work like slaves." Caelus muttered with a serious expression.
Sylvia appeared beside him with a curious tilt of her head.
"Hubby, do we need a whip?"
Caelus was completely taken aback by this.
"Why would we need a whip?"
"To motivate them properly," she said with a smile that didn’t match her words at all.
His lips twitched.
His girlfriend could be genuinely unhinged at times.
"Yeah. we don’t need whips," he said speechlessly. "We’ll just... strongly encourage them."
They made their way to the central plaza of Genesis City where hundreds of faction members had gathered.
Caelus activated the city-wide announcement system and his voice boomed across every district.
"Attention all Chaos Faction members! This is your faction leader speaking!"
Players stopped what they were doing and looked toward the nearest announcement crystal.
"I have reviewed the faction benefits, and they are amazing," Caelus continued with enthusiasm. "But it was bound to be amazing since I was the one who made them."
"However," his tone shifted, "For more benefits, we require something and that something is called Contribution Points."
"And guess who can’t earn Contribution Points?"
"Me!"
"Your beloved faction leader cannot earn a single point!"
Someone in the crowd coughed awkwardly.
"So here’s the deal," Caelus’s voice became cheerful. "Everyone needs to start completing quests immediately, or I will personally find each of you in the real world."
A player raised his hand nervously.
"But sir, how would you even find us?"
"I have my ways," Caelus replied ominously. "I know where you sleep."
He didn’t actually know where anyone slept, but they didn’t need to know that.
"Now get moving!"
The plaza erupted into chaos.
Players scattered in every direction like startled chickens, some literally tripping over each other in their haste to find quests.
One group sprinted toward the eastern gate screaming about monster hunting quotas.
Another group rushed toward the marketplace to accept gathering missions.
A third group, apparently lacking any sense of direction, ran directly into a wall before correcting themselves and heading toward the quest board.
Sylvia watched the scene with an amused smile.
"They’re very motivated now, hubby."
"Fear is an excellent teacher," Caelus agreed sagely.
One player accidentally knocked over a fruit stand in his panic, apologized profusely to the NPC vendor, then continued sprinting toward the city gates.
Another player tried to accept seventeen quests simultaneously and crashed the quest interface, requiring a system reset.
A third player was seen helping an elderly NPC cross the street, then helping another, then another, apparently having found a repeatable quest involving elderly assistance.
Within thirty minutes, the Contribution Point counter began climbing.
[Contribution Points: 12]
[Contribution Points: 27]
[Contribution Points: 45]
Players returned from their quests with exhausted expressions but triumphant smiles.
Some had monster blood on their clothes.
Others had dirt and grass stains from resource gathering.
One player returned carrying an elderly NPC on his back, apparently having taken the escort quest a bit too literally.
[Contribution Points: 78]
[Contribution Points: 91]
[Contribution Points: 100]
"Finally," Caelus said with satisfaction. "One hundred points."
He immediately opened the Pillar Gacha interface and selected a single pull.
The wheel spun with brilliant colors, cycling through countless possibilities before landing on gold.
[Congratulations!]
[You have obtained: Title Creator Kit ×4]
Four copies of the same item?
That was actually incredible.
He could create custom titles that granted permanent bonuses to members who earned them.
The wheel spun again automatically, a bonus pull from reaching the 100-point threshold.
[You have obtained: Benefit Creation Kit (90% Discount Coupon)]
Ninety percent off? That was a ncie benefit.
Creating custom benefits usually cost massive amounts of resources, but with this coupon, he could design multiple benefits for almost nothing.
Afterward, he got two more Benefit Creation Kit Discount coupon at 50% and three more Title Creators.
Caelus leaned back with a satisfied grin spreading across his face.
"Damn... these are nice rewards."
Sylvia peered at the interface over his shoulder.
"It seems like your luck is good this time around." Sylvia said with a smile. "It treated you well."
"It really did," he agreed. "This is completely different from what I remember in the Abyss, the rewards feel more generous somehow."
[Domain Is Closing]
Light consumed them as they returned to Earth.
They appeared right back in Italy.
A knock came at the door almost immediately.
Caelus opened it to find Elder Sterling standing in the hallway, his expression unusually serious.
"Caelus, Sylvia," he said while stepping inside. "I’ve been thinking about the beacon."
"What about it?" Caelus asked curiously.
"I think it’s time to summon the aliens."
