Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"Delaying for three months? We can only do our best."

Patrick changed his clothes and hurried to the front lines.

While Anran was using players to deplete the Pantheon's manpower, Leander, who had just arrived in the Star Tree Starfield not long ago, also began to take action.

With the Floror Foundation at the helm, the Giant Spirit Clan and the Originium Worship Society have reached a new cooperation agreement.

After receiving the species origin map handed over by Anran, the Originium worship ceremony's Originium modification plan was finally put on the agenda and has recently achieved quite good results.

However, they haven't conducted human trials yet.

At this point, the Giant Spirits volunteered to be guinea pigs for the Originium Worship Ceremony.

The reason for making this risky decision is that if the plan succeeds, the Giant Spirit Clan will have a promising candidate who has the potential to become the Star Domain Ruler.

According to Qike, the current chieftain of the Giant Spirit Clan, although An Qianqian has exceptional talent, her strength is still not enough.

In addition, An Ran's bloodline is not pure, and she also has close ties with the Mechanical God Cult.

If An Qianqian were to become the next leader of the Giant Spirit Clan, the Giant Spirit Clan would likely become a vassal of the Mechanical God Cult.

how to say.

Actually, this isn't necessarily a bad thing; at least it doesn't hinder the development of the Giant Spirit Clan.

But Cheek was still unwilling to accept it.

He wanted to try his best to get it done.

Back then, the Giant Spirit Clan was a force to be reckoned with under the Exiled Empire.

However, as time went by, the Giant Spirit Clan was once on the verge of collapse.

Now that he has finally been rescued, as time goes by, Chik has begun to miss the good old days of his powerful past.

A pure-blooded star field ruler belonging only to the Giant Spirit Clan!

What an enticing and wonderful future this is!

After receiving a message from the representatives of the Originium Worship Ceremony, Chik led a group of high-ranking members of the Giant Spirit Clan to the outpost to await the Originium Worship Ceremony's spaceship.

Half a day later.

At the largest airport in the outpost, Chik greeted the group of people who were slowly walking out of the cabin with a joyful expression.

"Your Excellency Hayden, I am truly grateful for your personal visit."

The star field ruler named Hayden was the same person Anran had met during the last transaction at the Originium Worship Ceremony.

He wore a brown robe, and his square face was full of fortitude.

Upon meeting Chik, he changed his indifferent attitude from when he met An Ran, and said with a smile, "No trouble at all, no trouble at all. This is no small matter, and it's entirely worth my personal trip. In fact, rather than you thanking me, I should be thanking you."

Chick burst into laughter.

He was also very happy.

Even if it's just a polite remark, it's still a rare honor to be said that by a Star Domain Ruler.

Hayden pointed to Leander standing beside him: "This is Leander, a famous scholar from our Originium Worship Ceremony. He will be leading the experiment this time."

Chick's eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly bowed to Leander, saying, "It's all thanks to you, Scholar Leander."

Leander nodded coldly.

"You are welcome."

These tech fanatics really don't have very good personalities.

Chick muttered to himself, then turned to Hayden: "Lord Hayden, let's go to our home planet first; it's a better place to talk."

Hayden nodded: "We'll do it your way."

The spaceship set off again, following Chik's personal spaceship and quickly heading towards the giant race's home planet.

At this time, most people living in the Rose Star District were completely unaware of this.

Some people only care about their own lives.

Some people are cheering for all the good news about the Cult of Machines.

Some people are even imagining a future where the Giant Spirit Clan will return to glory after An Qianqian becomes the ruler of the star field.

"Standing in the position of clan leader, I will do my best to change the Giant Spirit Clan!"

Gazing at the brilliant starry sky in the distance, Chick felt a surge of pride and joy.

……

At the temporary headquarters of the Cult of Machines.

After several days of rest, An Qianqian finally adapted to the new power that had been born in her body.

This put her in a great mood.

In her excitement, An Qianqian walked and ended up next to Nia again.

Looking at the figure lying on the ground, fast asleep, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"..."

An Qianqian shook her head.

For her, the Devouring Beast residing in Nia's body was both a chat buddy and, in a sense, a mentor to her.

During this time, that guy taught her a lot of combat skills.

It has to be said that the Devouring Beast is truly a genius.

Her path to advancement was almost without any obstacles, and she seemed to have mastered various combat skills as if she were born with them.

But even such geniuses can only turn to dust in the face of the passage of time, and it is unknown what will become of Anran in the future.

She's always causing trouble outside; she might get beaten to death before she even reaches the end of her natural lifespan.

"I should try to persuade her next time we meet. Wouldn't it be better to prioritize harmony?"

Thinking of this, An Qianqian couldn't help but smile.

To be honest, she really enjoys her life now.

When she was still shivering and eating canned food in that closed little house, it was Anran who descended from the sky and "forcefully" took her away. It was Anran who led her to where she is today.

Right now, she could be considered the strongest person in the Elimeria Empire.

This was something she never dared to dream of.

Anran gave her everything, and Anran was her everything.

An Qianqian leaned against the glass curtain wall.

It's so quiet.

Is it because most of them were transferred to the Eagle Eye sector?

Just then, a sharp pain suddenly shot through An Qianqian's mind.

The pain came on quickly.

It felt as if a sharp weapon had pierced the skin and penetrated deep into the body.

She clutched her head and collapsed to her knees in agony.

"What exactly is going on?"

The strange noise woke Nia, who was sleeping. She looked at An Qianqian with a puzzled expression: "Hey, what are you doing?"

But An Qianqian was no longer able to answer her question.

She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.

The stinging pain finally subsided a minute later.

An Qianqian lay weakly on the ground, as if she were dehydrated.

Nia watched for a long time before patting her chest and saying, "Thank goodness, it looks like he won't die."

If An Qianqian dies, who will she talk to?

Oh.

An Qianqian gave a bitter smile.

She didn't suspect that there was something wrong with the things An Ran gave her, because she believed that An Ran wouldn't try to cheat her.

So what exactly happened?

As An Qianqian recounted her experience to Nia, Nia suddenly asked, "Soul separation?"

"Ok?"

An Qianqian immediately sat up.

Nia explained, “I’ve had that experience before, it was nine, uh, a few months ago? Anyway, it happened not long ago when those weirdos dug me out of the ground.”

"Is that right?"

An Qianqian looked surprised.

But no one is targeting her.

After hesitating for a long time, An Qianqian finally decided to tell An Ran about it.

With such a good relationship, keeping things to ourselves would be unwise.

Anran, who was building a factory in the Forerunner ruins, immediately became alert.

"I'll be right back."

She temporarily put aside her work and quickly made her way to the temporary base through the passage built from the hollow stone.

……

at the same time.

Underground on the homeworld of the Giants.

The mechanical door opened automatically, and Leander walked out with a gloomy expression.
