A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 200 Arrival in Xandar

Just like how Shana's physical strength greatly increased after she became a Draenei.

After everyone transformed into their new forms, similar issues arose within them.

For example, Natasha, who became a blood elf, not only became physically stronger, but also gained the ability to cast spells and absorb mana.

Although the spells released were not powerful, they were indeed released.

Jessica, who becomes a night elf, "disappears" when she enters the shadows.

This is the Night Elf's talent: stealth.

In reality, stealth is not about becoming invisible, but about using shadows to conceal one's form.

Yelena's transformation into a dwarf allows her to slightly harden her skin, a dwarf's innate ability of "petrification."

Skye, now an undead, no longer needs to breathe, and her bodily functions are completely "dead," so ordinary damage has no effect on her at all.

As the troll's bullseye, and with Li Wei's reminder, he verified the talent that allows him to quickly recover from injuries.

As for Bronsky, who had turned into a minotaur, Levi warned him to be careful.

God knows if the war's trampling might leave a huge crater in the spaceship's high-strength alloy floor.

As for Li Wei himself, who transformed into a panda, well, he can now use "qi".

So, just as they deduced before, the Delicious Wind Serpent is not only fun, but also quite practical.

This costume party made the otherwise somewhat tedious space journey much more relaxing.

The initial unease among the group due to being far from Earth and the solar system was greatly alleviated.

Except for Tony, of course.

After all, becoming a softie is not a pleasant experience.

Without hands or feet, even moving is difficult.

Moreover, it has no facial features and cannot eat, see, or smell for a whole day. It can only perceive the world through the way that slime monsters, similar to mollusks, perceive the world.

Even their thoughts seemed to have come to a standstill.

According to Tony afterward, it was nothing short of torture for intelligent life.

Not to mention, everything that happened after he turned into a slime monster was recorded by that lecherous Li Wei.

This is definitely the most unspeakable dark history of his life.

But Iron Man is Iron Man, how could he be defeated by this mere ordeal of transforming into a softie?

So, under his persistent nagging, Li Wei had no choice but to make him a "Delicious Wind Snake" separately.

This time, Tony's luck wasn't off the charts anymore; he became just an "ordinary" night owl.

Only then was he truly satisfied.

In this process, Li Wei also verified something.

That's the effect of the Delicious Wind Serpent, which is actually similar to the Devil Fruit in an anime he watched in his previous life called One Piece. It has an effect after just one bite, but when others eat the rest of the fish, they can only taste it and won't experience any effect.

Although everyone found this situation very strange, they had seen enough mystical things by now and were too lazy to investigate it further.

Eight days later, following the Marauders' star map, the Skybreaker traversed more than a dozen jump points before finally arriving at their first destination, Xandar.

Xandar, as the capital of the Nova Empire, one of the largest powers in the galaxy, is a very open and inclusive planet.

Anyone can safely enter and leave this planet after registering.

Therefore, on this planet, we can see intelligent races from various civilizations.

Of course, just like that, you can't cause trouble on this planet.

Otherwise, they would end up like Star-Lord, Rocket, and Gamora when they first met, facing the Nova Corps' encirclement and being thrown into prison.

In addition, the planet's inclusiveness and excessive prosperity have led to extremely high prices in Xandar.

After Li Wei and his crew entered the starport, the parking fee for their spaceship cost a full kilogram of gold.

Fortunately, there was currency exchange in the starport, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to afford the spaceship's parking fees.

This shows that while Xandar is a desirable place, it's not accessible to everyone.

After exchanging all their gold for Niue, the universal currency of the galaxy, at the Starport, Li Wei and his companions traveled to Xandar and checked into a mid-range hotel.

"This is the first time I've ever felt like I'm a poor person!" Tony sighed helplessly after paying the exorbitant room rate and learning about the prices on Xandar.

The world's richest man has actually fallen to the point where he feels he doesn't have enough money.

"Indeed, it seems our plan is not as easy as we thought," Li Wei said helplessly.

They had originally calculated their initial expenses in Xandar based on the costs of their previous transactions with the raiders.

However, after learning about the cost of living in Xandar, it has been discovered that the funds exchanged will likely only cover about half of the original plan.

“Let’s see how things go in the next few days. Besides, we don’t necessarily need to buy the latest technology. After all, Earth’s technology and most other civilizations in the universe may not be on the same system. Even if they are on the same system, there is a high probability of gaps. So, more advanced technology is not necessarily better. In that case, we might not be too tight on funds,” Tony said after thinking for a moment.

"That's all we can do for now. If it really doesn't work, we'll have to find the Cosmic Orb and sell it to the Collector for money," Li Wei nodded and said.

“But speaking of the Collector, we don’t necessarily have to sell the Cosmic Orb. After all, that thing is too destructive. I’m not entirely comfortable entrusting something that can instantly destroy life on a planet to those aliens,” Tony said.

“Of course I understand that, so this is just an idea, not something that can’t be changed. After all, the Collector is the richest person in the galaxy, and the Orb of the Universe is the thing we know we can get the most wealth from him. The only things that can compare to it are the other Infinity Stones—in fact, if we have other things that we could get enough wealth from him, the Infinity Stones don’t necessarily have to be sold,” Levi replied.

If he could, he certainly wouldn't want to sell the Infinity Stones.

But without a doubt, the Infinity Stones were something he knew that, once sold, they wouldn't have to worry about money anymore.

“The things you made…?” Tony said.

“It’s not that I’m reluctant to part with them. In fact, I’ve thought about it for a long time. But the Collector is one of the oldest living beings in the universe. It’s hard to say whether he will even be interested in my things,” Li Wei said, spreading his hands.

"Hey~ let's take it one step at a time!" Tony thought about it and said helplessly.
