Poverty makes me capable of anything.

One of these goals is to transform the Originium Worship Society, which is confined to a remote corner of the country, into a rising force that cannot be ignored within the Exiled Empire.

“As fellow investors of the Flora Noor Group, they shouldn’t be here to cause trouble.” Anran nodded. “Let them in.”

Level 176 and Level 192.

After glancing at the levels of the two people who appeared in front of her, An Ran was certain that they were not there to cause trouble.

If they still dare to cause trouble, they're just asking for trouble.

Chapter 16 The Path of Evolution, The New Ruler!

The two people who came in immediately introduced themselves.

"Your Excellency the Prophet, I am Vasily from the Originium Worship Society."

After the young man finished speaking, the girl standing behind him quickly added, "I am Nina from the Originium Worship Society."

An Ran nodded calmly: "I've been a bit busy lately, so I might not have much time to entertain you. And you know I'm not one to cause trouble, so just say what your purpose is."

Vasily and Nina exchanged a glance.

This personality trait is no different from the one he displayed when negotiating with the Full Metal Cult.

In fact, they had already made full mental preparations before they came.

Besides, given the strength of the Originium Worship Society, there's no need for them to deliberately curry favor with An Ran.

Vasily perked up and said solemnly, "Then I won't bother with those pleasantries. I'm here on behalf of the Originium Worship Association to strengthen the relationship between our two families."

"Oh?" An Ran asked, "How exactly will it be improved?"

“Trade cooperation,” Vasily said.

When the topic of trade came up, Anran immediately became interested.

She painstakingly built that trading port, which was comparable in size to a giant planet, precisely to increase the trade revenue of the Mechanicus.

Those who traded with the Cult of the Machine God during this period were mostly traveling merchants and small merchant groups.

Although large corporations support the Mechanicus Cult behind the scenes, they have no intention of purchasing Mechanicus products.

Because it is not necessary.

To date, the mechanical products produced by the Cult of Mechanics are not unique; there are too many substitutes.

If you really want to conduct large-scale trade, it's faster to find the Mech Spirit Clan and those Starfield Overlord-level Mechanics.

It's rare to find a major power like the Originium Worship Society that proactively offered to trade with the Cult of Machine God.

Anran realized this was an opportunity.

What she needs to do is determine whether this is a good opportunity.

If the demands made by the Originium Worship Ceremony are too unreasonable, then Anran can only apologize.

Anran said, "Our Cult of the Machine God will not refuse partners who sincerely want to cooperate."

She emphasized the word "sincerity".

"Let's talk about the cooperation method first," An Ran said.

Vasily couldn't help but nod in approval at her calm and composed demeanor, which showed no sign of emotion whatsoever.

That kind of magnanimity is something he can't achieve now.

When gentle, she is like a harmless kitten; when fighting powerful enemies, she sometimes possesses the composure of a mechanical castle and at other times the ferocity of a starship. When she transforms into a prophet of the Cult of Machine God, the switch is seamless, as if she was destined to become the prophet followed by countless believers.

Working with such a person is dangerous, yet safe.

In Vasily's view, at least for now, it is safe.

With the Flanor Foundation acting as a mediator, it is difficult for the Originium Worship Society and the Mechanicus to have a conflict.

As long as there is no conflict, this cooperation agreement will bring him countless benefits.

All of this was destined after the Mechanicus defeated the Full Metal Cult.

In fact, it was Nigel who facilitated this collaboration.

Vasily and Nezel both wanted to take advantage of the Mechanicus to advance their careers.

Vasily didn't tell Anran anything, but Anran wouldn't care about these things, because the Originium Worship Ceremony brought out real rare metals.

The Mechanicus, in the midst of a major construction period, lacked everything, the most crucial of which was metal.

Anran originally intended to take a big bite out of the Full Metal Cult, but that was not a long-term solution.

After detailed discussions, both parties signed a letter of intent for business cooperation.

“The details can be discussed between Christopher and your representatives later. I am the prophet of the Cult of the Machine God, but matters concerning the merchant guild are generally handled by Christopher,” An Ran said, standing up.

Vasily quickly stood up and said, "Of course, we can't keep bothering Your Majesty the Prophet over such a trivial matter."

After he finished speaking, he glared at Nina, who hadn't gotten up yet.

Nina pouted and reluctantly stood up as well.

Vasily immediately smiled and said, "My junior doesn't go out much, so he's lacked in manners. I hope Your Excellency the Prophet won't be angry."

An Ran nodded: "It's okay."

After the meeting ended, An Ran was about to lead Vasily out of the conference room when the mission she had received in the energy sea suddenly flashed through her mind: "Contact with the high-energy world."

The mission requires you to collect two items that were born from the Sea of ​​Energy.

The Power Stone is one of them, so what about the other one?

An Ran suddenly asked, "Do the Originium you believe in really exist?"

Vasily was taken aback by An Ran's question, then replied, "Originium is a symbol of the Origin God, and it is real, just like the Machine Soul consciousness of the Machine God Cult."

An Ran smiled and nodded.

I'll go see it again when I have the chance; let's not talk about it now.

After saying goodbye to Vasily, Anran immediately threw herself into the arduous task of repairing the Guardian.

Before the triple experience card was completely used up, An Ran gained another two billion experience points, which was a decent reward.

After all this was done, Anran poured all her stored experience into the Ether Mechanic.

With a total of 3200 billion experience points, after reaching the peak of the Star Slayer stage (level 200) in one go, An Ran still had 1700 billion experience points left.

The six attributes are as follows:

力量1712、敏捷1667、耐力1270、智力3534、精神1772（精神壁垒额外附加353点）、魅力12

Health: 2043774 (+30% bonus health) + second health bar

(Note: You have reached the threshold of evolution. What awaits you on the road to overcoming obstacles is countless trials and tribulations. Behind the temple, is it a hell of whips or a stairway to endless void dimensions?)

The moment Anran's main class, [Ether Mechanic], reached level 200, she received more than a dozen notifications.

You have triggered an advancement quest...

You have triggered a racial evolution quest...

Anran opened the notification panel and tapped the details link marked in blue with her index finger.

The first thing that appears is the level 200 advancement quest.

You have been awarded the opportunity to advance.

When you arrive at the staircase, you will be presented with five different paths. You can choose the path that you are good at to climb the staircase leading to the endless void dimension.

[Note 1: Successfully advancing still unlocks other branches, but each unlock costs 100% more experience. Please choose carefully. Each failed advancement costs an additional 250 billion experience.]

Note 2: The probability of advancement is related to the required knowledge reserve rate. However, when the reserve rate is not higher than 15%, the probability of advancement is 1%. When the reserve rate is higher than 15%, the probability of advancement equals the reserve rate.
