The special exchange list for stage 4 was missing many items, such as the Breakthrough Pill and Ascension Pill for the Golden Core stage. However, one item in particular caught Wang Ming's eye.
General's Order (Special Item)
Rank: Sixth Rank Official
Effect: After use, the player's rank will be promoted from a seventh-rank captain to a sixth-rank general and they will receive the title of sixth-rank general, enjoying the general treatment of the Yuanyu Empire.
Price: Merit Points
...
Advanced Luck Stone (Special Item)
Grade: None
Effect: After use, it can increase the character's luck value by 5 points.
Price: Merit Points + 1000 Gold Coins
...
Pet Fusion Stone (Special Item)
Grade: Beginner
Function: Using this item, two pets can be fused and upgraded to form a new pet, with the highest possible rarity being a Sacred Beast.
Price: Merit Points + 1000 Gold Coins
...
"It really is a pet fusion stone, which can fuse two pets to upgrade them. I have to buy this."
"The official rank of sixth grade has changed from captain to general, which also requires purchases. So, it will require some merit points. There are also pet armor to buy, which will also require merit points."
"Damn it, I only have 170,000 merit points, not enough to buy this, it's so frustrating."
"Never mind, let's buy the sixth-rank general's official position and the pet fusion stone first. As for the pet armor, let's buy as many pieces as we can."
Wang Ming was no longer troubled and directly exchanged for a pet fusion stone and the official rank of a sixth-grade general.
Pet Fusion Stone (Special Item)
Grade: Beginner
Function: After use, two pets can be fused and upgraded to form a new pet. The quality of the new pet after fusion is based on the lowest quality of the two pets before fusion. There is a 100% chance of getting a new pet of the same quality, a 1% chance of increasing the quality by 1 rank, and a 0.001% chance of increasing the quality by 2 rank. The highest quality of the two pets before fusion is a Sacred Beast.
"This pet fusion stone is interesting. It also has a chance to upgrade the grade. If I use Cerberus and another sacred beast to fuse, there is a 1% chance of getting a celestial beast and a 0.001% chance of getting a divine beast."
"The odds are really low, but at least you're guaranteed to get a sacred beast, so it's not a complete loss."
Wang Ming then used the order of a sixth-rank general.
"System notification: You have used the General's Token (Rank 6), and you have become a General (Rank 6) of the Yuanyu Empire."
"System notification: You have obtained the title of sixth-rank general."
"System notification: As you are the first player to become a General of the Yuanyu Empire (Rank 6), you have gained merit points."
"System notification: You have gained 100 gold coins and experience points."
...
"Announcement to the whole region: Seizing a Glimmer of Hope has become the first general of the sixth rank. He is rewarded with merit points for seizing a glimmer of hope, and can receive 100 gold coins every month and experience points every day."
"Regional Announcement: Seizing a Chance of Survival has made him the first sixth-rank general..."
"Regional Announcement: Seizing a Glimmer of Hope..."
"Oh dear, I completely forgot about that. The first person to be promoted to a sixth-rank general receives a merit point reward. A few merit points are just enough for me to buy a piece of pet armor."
"Haha, system, you're amazing." Wang Ming immediately gave the system a thumbs up and then opened the title panel.
From a sixth-rank general (blue),
Grade: Intermediate
Effect: Increases the character's base attributes by 10%, and grants an additional 200% merit points when killing monsters.
...
"My overall attributes have increased from 5% to 10%, and all my attributes have increased significantly. Not bad, not bad. And most importantly, my head is no longer covered in green."
"What a pity, the special exchange interface for Tier 4 only has three items, and the remaining high-level luck stone is useless. Wait, something feels off."
"A high-level Luck Stone requires 100,000 Merit Points plus 1,000 Gold Coins and grants 5 Luck Points. Is that the correct value?"
Wang Ming exited the fourth tier of merit points, opened the special list of the third tier, and found the Stone of Fortune.
Stone of Fortune (Special Item)
Grade: None
Effect: After use, it can increase the character's luck value by 1 point.
Price: Merit Points + 100 Gold Coins
...
"......"
"Good heavens, the exchange price of high-grade luck stones has increased tenfold, but I can only get half the luck value? This damn system, what are you?" Wang Ming gave a thumbs up again, but this time, he flipped the thumb 180 degrees.
With his thumbs retracted, Wang Ming exchanged for 5 pieces of pet armor, then left the merit point, summoned Cerberus, and went directly to the teleportation array in the center of Crimson Sky City.
"Halt, people. Pets are not allowed to enter the teleportation barrier."
As soon as Wang Ming rode Cerberus to the outside of the teleportation array, a row of guards ran over, pointing their spears at Wang Ming and surrounding him.
"Damn it, get out of here! Are you blind? This is my imperial general. Put down all your spears!"
Before Wang Ming could react, a chubby boy jogged over from a distance, cursing the guards surrounding him as he ran.
"Hehe, General, these people are just guards who only know how to protect the important barrier area. They have offended you, General. I hope you will be magnanimous and not blame them."
"Isn't the protective barrier a teleportation array?" Wang Ming asked curiously. He then put away Cerberus and used his Insight spell on everyone.

"Holy crap, I can't even see these people's levels, which means they're at least level 40 NPCs. But Crimson Sky City is just the lowest-level main city in the Yuan Domain. Does this broken teleportation array really need these people to guard it?"
"It's alright. You're the captain here, right? Um, how did you know I'm a general?"
Seeing that these NPCs, whose levels were far higher than his, treated him with utmost respect, Wang Ming immediately straightened his posture and spoke in a more profound tone.
"Hehe, yes, sir, my surname is Zhou, you..." The chubby boy pointed to the top of Wang Ming's head, and only then did Wang Ming remember that he was wearing the title of a sixth-rank general.
Oh, okay, I forgot about that, but this official position is quite useful.
"Hehe, sir, I wonder if you need to use a teleportation array to come to this heavily guarded area?"
"Hmm, not bad. I'm going to use the teleportation array here to go to the level 4 main city."
"I wonder which level 4 main city you intend to visit, sir."
"Daytime City".
