Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 634 Connections
Very good, just as what is said in the illustration, even the most common origin stone can be of great help in improving meditation ability and various systems that require perception.

Inside the room, Xin Lailai looked at the introduction of [Origin Stone·Remnant] in front of him with a look of great satisfaction in his eyes.

The perception efficiency of the corresponding ability system + 3rd level potential rank. If it is used for those whose corresponding system qualification level is only B+, this origin stone is equivalent to directly improving their perception ability in the corresponding system to the same level as A-level qualification.

And if it is used on someone with B-level qualifications like his spatial qualifications, it is equivalent to directly allowing his comprehension efficiency in the corresponding system to jump from B-level to A-level in one go, jumping three levels.

As for using it on a system like his spell and heavy sword qualifications that have reached the A-level qualification level, although it cannot reach the level of crossing 3 levels of qualifications, it can also allow his perception efficiency in this area to reach a level between A+ and S- from A-level, which is still an extremely obvious improvement.

[Reminder: "Origin Stone·Remnant" has been equipped. The current maximum number of special equipment that can be effective is: 3/4]

[Tip: Since the Pioneer has already equipped an "Origin Stone·Remnant", a second Origin Stone of the same type cannot be effective at the same time]

Is it really impossible to use them in combination?
Xin Lailai looked at the two Origin Stones in his hand, with a hint of regret in his eyes, but he was not surprised.

After all, if the same type of Origin Stones can really be stacked to take effect, then it means that you only need to carry two incomplete Origin Stones to directly enjoy the enhanced effect that is stronger than that of a normal Origin Stone. If such a good thing can be realized, it will definitely be emphasized in the information about Origin Stones.

[Reminder: An email has been sent to the Pioneer and the Dead Man. Since both the Pioneer and the other party are located in the Sanctuary Paradise, there is no postage for this email.]

After sending one of the [Origin Stones·Remnant] to the Death Keeper by mail, Xin Lailai continued to look at the exploration store in front of him, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

From the fact that the whole process from the Death Keeper transferring points to him to his helping to purchase items was carried out without any warning from the Paradise, it was obvious that the Sanctuary Paradise did not object to such behavior between pioneers. In other words, if necessary in the future, he could go to those pioneers who were one or two levels higher than him to help purchase certain items from the more advanced exploration stores.

Of course, given the restrictions on resource funding regulations, we can't do this too often, but this is enough.

——After all, for many things, the key is never whether you can do more, but whether you can do it at all.

……

Just like before, the various goods in the Honor Shop were still almost tailor-made. Whether it was the Alchemy Master's Insights that could greatly speed up their progress in alchemy, or the World Core Fragments and Holy Spirit Spring Water that played an important role in the cultivation of the World Tree, they were basically the things they needed most at the moment and could not be easily bought on the market.

The only problem is...

"Why do I feel like the Medal of Honor is not enough?"

Xin Lailai looked at the items in the Honor Store, then looked at his only 23 remaining medals of honor, rubbed his temples gently, and sighed with some melancholy.

When they were in the Hellsing world, they earned a total of 74 gold medals of honor. However, after only three worlds, these medals of honor were almost used up, and this was even though they had a full 3% reduction.

"Ling Yuzi, do you think we should try to set up another trap to lure in a group of violators?"

"Well, I think we can do that... but this generation of third-level offenders has already been eliminated by you, Lailai, in the Hellsing world, right?"

Ling Yuzi gently pressed his lips with his index finger, tilted his head, looked sideways at Xin Lailai, and muttered.

"Well, that's a real problem..."

Upon hearing this, Xin Lailai showed a hint of embarrassment on her face.

Violators are divided into levels just like contractors. Normally, as they are promoted to the third level, those violators who originally stayed at the second level will also be promoted one after another and continue to bully others at the third level.

However, in order to get more medals of honor, they set up a trap to kill most of the violators in the second stage. In addition, when they just entered the second stage, Paradise took advantage of the opening of the black bullet world to deal with 28 violators. The final result was that all the violators of their generation were killed by them before they even developed. Now, the only ones who are still hanging around and have some fame are the instigators who "accidentally" lost the three soul crystal secret boxes (complete) in front of them.

"Tsk, if I had known earlier I should have let one or two more escape..."

Xin Lailai said with a hint of self-blame, reflecting deeply in his mind, and seemed to really regret that there was no violator to kill.

Although in addition to killing violators, you can also earn Medals of Honor by exploring anomalous worlds and participating in war worlds, the problem is that these two ways are one too dangerous and the other too unstable, and are far less cost-effective than killing violators.

"Well, let's just think of it as making the paradise less troubled."

Finally, Xin Lailai shook her head slightly, put the matter of the violator behind her and stopped thinking about it.

It was certainly regrettable to lose a channel to obtain a large number of medals of honor, but on the other hand, because the violators of their generation were almost extinct, the development environment of those low- and middle-tier contractors had become much more stable.

The most direct impact is that after passing through the Hellsing world, the daily transaction volume in the low-level trading streets has shown an extremely obvious increase. After all, the large number of deaths of violators means that ordinary contractors can cooperate with others in exploration with more confidence, without having to worry about running into some monsters and losing their lives. The relaxation of cooperation means increased profits, which in turn brings about an increase in the resources and strength of the entire contractor group.

As for the fact that losing the pressure from violators will make it harder for the contractors to grow, this is pure nonsense. If violators are really beneficial to the development of the park, then there is no need for pioneers like them to take action. With the shrewdness of the Sanctuary Park, they will naturally guide the other party in a direction where they can survive without making a sound. And since the park has acquiesced that they killed those violators, it means that in the judgment of the park, the death of these violators must have more benefits than disadvantages for the park.

After all, if the contractors really need to be put under pressure, Paradise can do so through the arrangement of the world and the adjustment of the tasks, rather than leaving such matters to a group of violators who only know how to bully the weak and fear the strong and take shortcuts most of the time.

After redeeming all the items in the Gold Honor Store, Xin Lailai did not close the Honor Store immediately. Instead, he clicked on the store category at the top and switched to the redemption interface of the Platinum Honor Store:

……

Very good, the Platinum level Honor Store is still extremely powerful.

After just a quick glance at the items in the Platinum Honor Store, Xin Lailai decisively selected them all and pressed the buy button.

……

[Reminder: Exchange completed, 10 platinum medals of honor have been paid, and the following items have been obtained]

……

Soul Crystal Secret Box (complete) *1

……

Just like the Gold Honor Store, the items in the Platinum Honor Store were still custom-made to a certain degree, and some even said that they were specially prepared for them by this park.

Although due to the high item limit of the Platinum Honor Store, they had to spend some time ahead of time to master the two soul secrets they had obtained this time, but fortunately, with their current knowledge learning efficiency bonus, they only need to find a suitable world to level up and consolidate their gains from the past few worlds. There is still a great chance that they can master these two secrets at the third level. At the very least, they can master the "Soul Secret Art: Calming the Mind" which has relatively simple conditions.

[Prompt: Ding~ You have a new message prompt, sender: Chijia]

Suddenly, a message popped up. Xin Lailai saw it and clicked it:

……

Chijia: "Haha, I didn't expect Brother Black Sword to return so soon? I thought I would have to wait until the next world progress is finished before I can see Brother Black Sword again."

Black Sword: "Brother Chijia, thank you for your praise. It's just a coincidence this time."

Chijia: "Brother Black Sword, you are too modest. I have heard about your deeds in the ruins of the Dead Sea. Thanks to Brother Black Sword, our sect has recently received many new members who want to see your true appearance."

Chijia: "Okay, let's stop talking nonsense. We have already calculated the amount of supplies you have, Brother Black Sword. The amount this time is a bit too much. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to handle it alone. Therefore, we may need to invite a few more cults to come in. This is the list we compiled. Brother Black Sword, please take a look first. If there are any that don't suit your taste, we will not invite them to share this pie (attached. List of cults)."

Black Sword: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Brother Chijia. I'll take a look here first, and I'll notify you immediately after I've confirmed it."

……

A new cult list?

"Well, Lailai, now that he said that, if we think about it carefully, it seems that we should develop our network to a higher level?"

"Yes, indeed. I guess Chijia and the others also realized this, so they took this opportunity to speak out."

When Xin Lailai heard Ling Yuzi's words, she nodded slightly and looked at the content on the communication channel with some emotion in her eyes.

Although he intended to support the Blazing Gold Cult, the fact was that with the increase in their strength and the establishment of the Guixu Squad, the two third-tier cults, the Blazing Gold Cult and the Right Punishment Cult, could no longer absorb their resources.

Not to mention anything else, just the 1.2 billion resources from last time alone would have required the Blazing Gold Cult to bring in another cult to digest them, and this time the amount of resources they obtained from the White Frontier Star is conservatively estimated to be over 6 billion. Such a huge amount has completely exceeded the maximum amount of resources that the Blazing Gold Cult can digest.

This is not because the Blazing Gold Cult lacks ability, but the level of resource acquisition of the outer-level teams is indeed too terrifying, not to mention that they are selling the resources of an entire outer-level team in a package this time. In this case, if the Blazing Gold Cult can still take over this batch of resources without bringing in a higher-level cult, that would be really weird.

"But, the list of the fourth-level cults..."

Xin Lailai looked at the list sent by Chijia, and the information and introductions of several fourth-tier religious groups displayed on it. A thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. He opened the communication channel and sent a message on the team interface:
……

Black Sword: "@Ya Mu, @Death Master, the amount of resources we got this time is a bit too much. The cult I contacted here can't handle it alone. We need to bring in two or three fourth-level cults. See if there are any targets you like or have grievances against."

The deceased: "No, I don't recognize any of these."

Yamu: "Let me see... Wow, Captain Hei has a wide network of contacts? He just listed half of the top ten fourth-level cults?"

Yamu: "As for the candidates, well~ I am a member of the Western Divine Religion, so I don't care much about this. But if I have to choose, I personally recommend the Dayan Religion under the Three Thousand Divine Religion. If I remember correctly, it seems to be a branch of the offline cult that Yanyi uses to handle resources."

……

A branch of Yanyi's downline cult?

Seeing the content sent by Yamu, Xin Lailai's eyes moved, and he lowered his head to glance at the information on the list given by Chijia. After staying for a while on the fourth-level sect called Dayan Sect, he nodded slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

……

Black Sword: "Okay, let's tentatively decide on the three sects: Dayan Sect, Yanyao Sect, and Zhengheng Sect. How do you think?"

The person holding the dead body: "Yes."

Yamu: “No problem.”

……

Light blue text quickly flashed across the communication channel, and Xin Lailai looked at the content, saw the team reaching a consensus, nodded, and without saying anything more, sent the selected list directly to Chijia. At the same time, he took out a set of clothes that was more suitable for the first meeting from the storage space, and Ling Yuzi assisted him in changing.

Although theoretically, this is just a simple resource transaction and there is no need to be so cautious, but no matter how powerful the other party is, they are among the top ten sects in the fourth level and they must be given due respect.

Moreover, connections can only be built on mutual respect. If one really acts like a big shot by relying on the fact that he is a pioneer or a member of an external echelon, he will only end up shooting himself in the foot.
