America? No, it's the warp!

The truth has come to light, and you've successfully found the third person hiding in the alley that night.

[Reward: +20 Merit Points]

[Through three attempts, you've shown Marcus that your victory wasn't a fluke, but a testament to your strength. The Astronauts should all take you as their role model.]

[Reward: +40 Merit Points]

[The tactic of using provocation—appearing vulnerable to lure the other party into a trap—is simple yet effective.]

[Treachery +1]

[Receive Tzeentch's Blessing: Insight into Details]

[Detail Insight: Your ability to capture details has greatly improved, enabling you to notice details that others easily overlook and sift through them to extract information.]

Logan didn't feel any significant difference in the upgrade this time. He looked around, testing the effect of the blessing.

He clearly saw the expressions on the faces of every onlooker. The vast majority were cheering for his victory, except for a few who were familiar with Marcus, who looked embarrassed, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

Ivan looked like he'd won the lottery, beaming with joy. If there hadn't been so many people around, he probably would have done a political commissar dance right there on the spot.

He stepped forward, put his arm around Logan's neck, and whispered:

"Tell me what kind of fitness drugs you use, and I'll let you come here to work out for free from now on."

"I haven't taken any medication."

"What?!"

His eyes burned even brighter, as if the grand prize were a bottle of the strongest vodka.

Never used the medication before! That means he's a potential customer!

He tightened his grip on her neck.

"That would be even better! How about some hot new stuff? I guarantee it'll make you so strong you could break through a wall. I'll give you a 20% discount."

Logan doesn't need it; he has better medicine.

Chosen by the five gods, blessed by the five gods, is it not better than the power of the nine dragons?

"No, no."

Physiologically, the more of something the body has, the less it secretes. Excessive external intake can lead to functional atrophy due to prolonged ineffectiveness.

"I don't want two raisins growing down there."

Just like the muscle atrophy in a vegetative state patient.

Ivan knew this, of course, but he never told his clients.

Replacing the magic pill with muscle will turn away a significant portion of customers.

"Oh well."

Hearing that the other person knew this little-known fact, he didn't press the matter further.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, the weight of 150kg motivated many people to train their muscles more diligently and to search for more effective medications.

In American gyms, almost everyone uses medication.

They are all followers of Nurgle.

Pushing physiological limits with large amounts of drugs always does more harm than good.

Marcus sat dejectedly to the side, whether overwhelmed by the unattainable 150kg weight or realizing that his own foolishness had led to this bet, it was unclear.

Logan stepped forward to comfort him:

"Don't worry, we're even now, I won't report you to the police."

After saying that, he left the bench press area.

Marcus didn't even look up, his mind racing as he tried to figure out how to explain things to George.

"What happened?"

Having just finished showering, Luca missed the important plot point and only saw the scattering crowd and his dejected gym buddy.

Upon hearing the sound, Logan immediately turned around and walked over.

There is still a cause and effect that needs to be repaid.

He walked up to the other person and slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

"It's you!"

As soon as Luca recognized him, Logan threw a swift and powerful punch at his stomach with all his might.

The remaining [Dryness] amplified the force of the attack, instantly penetrating his abdominal muscle defenses and affecting his internal organs.

"Well……"

Luca's words were interrupted by a punch. The excruciating pain in his abdomen left him no time to speak or think, and he could only crouch down, clutching his stomach.

Logan leaned down and whispered in his ear:

"This is the price for that blow."

Retribution may be late, but it will not be absent.

Luca had no objections, only nodding in agreement.

If I can knock him down with one punch, then whatever he says goes.

Logan came to the gym for these three things: to test his strength, to get answers, and to suffer the consequences.

After leaving the gym, he didn't immediately go looking for that bitch; instead, he returned to his tent first.

Because there's a rather special upgrade going on, we need to keep it discreet and carry it out in a hidden place.

He zipped up the tent, and after making sure no one was paying attention to him, he summoned the control panel:

[Host: Logan]

[Rank: Recruit]

[Merit Points: 520]

【chaos

Khorne: 3 (100% Muscle Stimulation)

Neggoth: 4 (The blood and sweat of a loving father)

Slaanesh: 4 (seems even more Slaanesh now)

J-4 (Sharp Eyes)

[Skill: Pulsating Pus (Foul)]

With 500 merits already earned, it's time to take the first step towards becoming an Astartes.

He clicked on Merit Points, entered the Logistics Department subpage, and selected and redeemed the Second Heart.

[A Second Heart: The first step in Astartes organ transplantation, a complete heart with functions similar to the original heart, capable of functioning even when the original heart is damaged. Two hearts can also pump blood simultaneously in the circulatory system, providing double the blood flow and significantly increasing the efficiency of blood substance transport.]

A surge of energy erupted at a point on the right side of his chest, followed by what seemed to be an unidentified substance bursting forth and gradually growing to the size of a fist.

A moment later, Logan felt two places throbbing in his chest, the rhythmic heartbeats containing a powerful life force.

His original heart only needed to beat 30 times per minute, with the rest being handled by his second heart.

With his second heart and the previous blessing of Nurgle, his blood flow was now far beyond that of ordinary people.

Having one heart already makes one stronger than an average person, but having two hearts makes one even more vulnerable.

Perhaps if he ran a marathon now, he could easily win the championship.

Looking at the logistics department where all the goods were sold out, Logan was somewhat puzzled:

"Sold out? What's the use of those merits then? Emperor, you can't be inferior to an evil god!"

[You have obtained a rank advancement mission. Currently, your rank is Recruit. Completing 15 missions will promote you to Private and unlock the ability to redeem more Logistics Department items. You have currently completed 13 missions.]

As if the emperor were watching from heaven, the system immediately gave the task of increasing the variety of goods.

The panel content has also changed: 13/15 has been added after 【Rank: Recruit】.

"By the Emperor, I am an absolutely loyal subject of the Empire, and everything I do is for the future of humanity."

As he silently repeated this phrase to himself, Logan felt his guilt lessen considerably.

"I wonder if the logistics department will have other Astartes organs or other weapons and equipment after I'm promoted to private."

Stepping out of the tent, the sun was high in the sky. It was 10:30. After spending an hour with his two underlings, Logan got up to say goodbye.

"You don't need to get me lunch, I have a dinner engagement."

He left Waterfall Park and headed towards the city center until he reached Jessler Avenue, the northernmost point of Pioneer Square. He then followed the street and found apartment building number 46.

His home, no, his house is here.

However, now it has been usurped.

He arrived at the door of 604, took a few deep breaths, and rang the doorbell.

"Ding-a-ling~"

[Quest Reward: I am me]

[After three years of military service, you've been betrayed. Your home has been taken over by Slaanesh followers, and even your identity information and military record are in their hands. You can't directly take them back because you can't prove you are who you are, so first, reclaim your identity information.]

[Reward: +20 Merit Points]

[Note: Avoid killing as much as possible. Chaos followers are to be killed by everyone, but the Empire is already corrupt and Chaos has corrupted it severely. Do not disrupt this still functioning order until you have sufficient power.]
