Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"Oh?"

The Crimson Lotus King said, "Our goal is to bring in beings from higher dimensions, isn't it? The void is also a being that lives in a higher dimension."

Qilu nodded.

you're right.

"Shortly after I awoke, I encountered two voids."

"What did you say?

The person on the wrong path was greatly alarmed.

Encountering the void?

The Crimson Lotus King shared its experiences with Qilu, but it didn't mention Anran and the panda's identities for the time being. What if these guys had ulterior motives? Wouldn't that harm Anran and the others?

The Crimson King concluded by saying, "With their assistance, finding the Void World should not be difficult, which will make our grand plan even easier."

"This one……"

The seven heads on the wrong path stopped shaking.

It began to weigh the pros and cons.

Its memories instruct it to unite other executors, contact those unscrupulous collaborators among humanity, and continuously strike at the star path.

This can be considered the "main quest" left behind by the pioneers.

In some games, the main quest is very difficult, but completing some side quests related to the main quest can reduce the difficulty of the main quest.

Would cooperating with these two void entities have the same effect?

The head in the very middle of the fork in the road raised itself: "Are you sure they are void?"

“They possess all the characteristics of the void, including the unique fluctuations of the void,” said the Crimson King. “These are things that humans cannot simulate.”

Qilu said, "In that case, let's try to make contact."

He entrusted this task to the Crimson King and the Imposter.

"It's time to move on to the next phase of the plan."

……

After the civil war among the Giants came to a complete end, Chik agreed to Anran's request for cooperation.

An Qianqian stayed, and Qi Ke conducted a aptitude test for her. As expected, An Qianqian's aptitude in martial arts shocked Qi Ke.

As expected of a hidden NPC, similar to Ella.

An Qianqian was born with the perfect inheritance of the advantages of the Giant Spirit Clan and the Wild Summoner Clan, and she even surpassed them in talent.

"Although she looks completely different from us, she still has the blood of the Giant Spirit Clan flowing in her veins."

After learning of An Qianqian's existence, the high-ranking members of the Giant Spirit Clan unanimously recognized her.

It's not just about gaining An Ran's favor; it's also a gamble!

Without the Star Domain Ruler to oversee them, the Giant Spirit Clan declined far too quickly.

If things continue like this, they won't even be able to defend the Rose Star Sector. They desperately hope that a strong person who can take on the responsibility will emerge from their race.

It doesn't have to be a star field ruler, but at least it has to be the top star killer.

With An Qianqian's talent, barring any unforeseen circumstances, she will undoubtedly grow into a top-tier Star Killer under their full guidance.

Therefore, as soon as she arrived in the Giant Spirit Clan, An Qianqian became a true young lady.

In terms of importance, it's much higher than the importance the Mech Spirits attach to Ella.

The only concern was that Chik and his group were worried that the Giant Spirit Clan's enemies might harm An Qianqian, who was still young, so they did not reveal An Qianqian's true identity to the public.

Even among the giant spirits, only a minority knew of her existence.

An Ran was very pleased to see the Giant Spirit Clan's cautious attitude.

She patted An Qianqian's shoulder first: "From now on... I finally won't have to struggle with what to cook for you every day, hahahahaha—"

An Ran clutched her stomach and burst into laughter.

He completely ignored An Qianqian's dark expression.

An Ran then glanced at Qi Ke.

"From now on, we'll be counting on you. An Qianqian has quite a big appetite."

Chik patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me. We giants have a knack for dealing with gluttons."

An Ran cautioned, "Her appetite is more extravagant than you imagine. After all, she can enhance her strength through eating, while you..."

An Ran shook her head. The giants' strong physique is determined by their genes, not by what they eat.

Compared to An Qianqian, their appetites were nothing.

However, the Giant Spirit Clan is a race with a long history, and they are much richer than An Ran, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

Chick said, "Don't worry, we have a lot of experience."

Anran decided to believe it for the time being.

After saying goodbye to An Qianqian, she embarked on the journey back to the Silent Land with Ella and the panda.

Before she even left the Rose Star Sector, An Ran was stopped by Nezel of the Flanor Corporation.

Niel was there to deliver money, so An Ran displayed the manners of a noble lady throughout, engaging in a never-ending exchange of flattery with Niel.

Amazing! Absolutely amazing!

the same as you.

As expected of you!

I can't compare to you.

No, no, everyone has a bright future!

With twice the amount of supplies as compensation from Nezel, Anran headed towards the Silent Land, satisfied. During this time, she also entrusted Nezel to help her acquire the items left behind by the Forerunners.

As for the blueprints...

An Ran decided to first see if she could get something out of Ciqiya.

After a month of intensive preparations, the Strangers' Gladiator Tournament, in which players participate, has finally begun.

To create enough buzz, the first competition lasted a full month, ultimately selecting the top ten from over twenty million participating players.

Some forces from the Eternal Star Road have even declared that they are very interested in players, and that the top ten winners can directly join them and receive special training.

Whether or not you train someone is not important; what matters is the prestige!

This news brought many players who had left Silent Land back.

The rewards for being in the top 100 are already quite generous, but this promise is even more enticing.

The first round of selection is a battle between players and puppets provided by Silent City.

An Ran leaked some information to Silent City based on the average player level statistics from the level rankings, and after the first round, nine out of ten people were eliminated.

Once Anran's demon ship sailed out of the Exiled Empire's territory, only a few thousand players remained.

"We made it!"

At that moment, Tsukasa, who was attending the summit meeting, suddenly appeared.

That sum of money made even the wealthy city of Silent City feel a little breathless.

This is only the first one!

This way, the event can continue indefinitely!

After the final competition, An Ran felt that he could upgrade the mechanical legion and even field a full-strength Guardian force of ten.

Moreover, it is a fully evolved guardian at level 194.

With such a full-strength army, as long as we don't encounter monsters of level 197 or higher, we can just lie back and watch the show.

With the Dark Knight Medal nerfed, ten level 194 idiots can charge in and easily crush the enemy with sheer numbers.

"Don't worry, I won't give any to you," An Ran said to Ciqiya.

Ciqiya gritted her teeth: "If I had known, I wouldn't have given it all to you!"

"If you give me some blueprints, I'll give you money, and I'll keep giving you money in the future."

Tsyja nodded: "Okay, go talk to Virginia."

"..."

Hey, you did that on purpose, didn't you?

“That’s right, I did it on purpose. I think that from now on, any negotiations involving money should be conducted between Virginia and you.”

In this way.

An Ran had absolutely no confidence left.

Several days later, when Anran saw Virginia again in the tower of Silent City, that was what she thought.

Twin souls sharing the same soul.

However, Virginia and Tsykia have completely different personalities, which makes An Ran wonder if they are the same person.

After all, one looks delicate and easily pushed over, while the other is completely ascetic.

"I already know about your agreement with Tsykya."

"hey-hey……"

An Ran laughed awkwardly.

After all, she had tricked Tsukiya many times.

"This [Warp Light] is even stronger than your Zero-Point Devouring Beam, so I'd say it's about 1.5% stronger?"

"Ok, Ok."

"This [Puppet on a String] should provide some ideas for upgrading your Guardian. A 2% contribution wouldn't be unreasonable, would it?"
