Poverty makes me capable of anything.

An Ran lies without batting an eye, appearing completely unconcerned.

"That's amazing."

An Qianqian felt a pang of emotion.

She remembered that Anran had created a lot of mechanical puppets to guide the players, the Strangers, in their own strength, but Anran earned a lot of spaceships from this project.

It looks like this ball is an advanced version of that technique.

She truly lives up to her reputation as An Ran.

Anran received the analysis report from the Lemet Tower after only a short wait.

First, it's An Qianqian's.

Although the Lemeta Staircase doesn't contain much information, it still provides a fairly detailed analysis report by comparing data with other races.

Strength rating: [Poor]

Her face was as red as An Qianqian's.

She was a little unconvinced.

She's a top-tier Star Slayer now, no doubt about it.

"Lack of real combat experience, practice more."

An Ran's words left An Qianqian speechless.

Okay, that makes sense.

An Ran flipped through the pages again.

The conclusion is clear: besides improving combat skills, the most important thing is to eat!

An Qianqian's body was in a state of "hunger" most of the time, especially after fusing with the Power Stone.

Eat more and grow longer.

"I'll go and bring back a giant star beast for you in a bit." An Ran patted An Qianqian's shoulder.

"..."

Hey, there's no need to get so worked up.

She even wanted to become a hunter herself; she couldn't always live under Anran's protection, or she'd become a little pet.

An Ran's gaze then fell on Ella's analysis report.

An Ran nodded secretly at the mention of the Eternal Mech Spirit Race.

It has to be said that this is indeed more accurate than the game's definition of the Mech Spirit race!

After all, Ella fused with the Power Stone, making her different from ordinary mechanical spirit race rulers.

There won't be a situation where, during a battle, energy is insufficient and a temporary retreat is necessary.

In terms of strength assessment, Lemeta Steps gave it a very high rating.

And the advancement proposal...

In a sense, it's a recipe!

A balanced diet is a goal pursued by humans, and the same applies to Ella, except that she is pursuing a "metal balance".

Consuming the right type and the right amount of metal will help Ella quickly improve her strength.

Looking at the form that appeared in her hand, An Ran still frowned.

"It's a bit expensive."

If it were just expensive, then forget it.

The main problem is that various metal materials are difficult to obtain.

She can purchase some from the Mech Spirits, but that amount is far from enough.

Should we continue to seek help from the Exiled Empire?

Anran didn't think they would agree.

Although she was now a first-level court envoy of the War Court, her status was still special.

While other first-level court envoys focused on their duties in the War Court, she was different. Since her promotion, she had never shown her face in the War Court, spending most of her time managing the Cult of the Machine God—at least that's how it appeared to others.

Nathaniel values ​​her, but that doesn't mean the rest of the War Court share the same opinion.

There will always be people who are wary of her.

When everyone started arguing, Nathaniel, as the arbitrator, couldn't always side with Anran.

We need to come up with a new approach.

Even if the player is not present, the mining operation in Hidden Sands can still continue.

Mining machinery isn't difficult to manufacture; the challenge lies in ensuring its safety.

Another factor is the time cost.

Finding the metal minerals you want in the vast universe is not an easy task.

How can one obtain large quantities of metal relatively safely?

An Ran began to ponder.

She found nothing even after bringing the Lemetta Stairs to the Hollow Stone.

Let's put it on hold for now.

Anran began scanning the hollow stone.

The feedback was quite interesting.

[X]

It is an unknown variable.

The Lemeta Staircase did not name the Hollow Stone.

Clearly, the hollow stone is not mentioned in its records.

However, the Lemette Steps still provide fairly detailed analytical data.

This is a mysterious product embedded in a special spatial node; if I had to describe it, it would be like a tumor growing on a spatial node.

Its characteristics are pathological, with chaotic constants and no discernible pattern.

However, it is currently uncertain whether this abnormality will have a negative impact. Rather, the appearance of such anomalies in a world that operates in an orderly manner can be incredibly helpful in studying the nature of the world.

Before that, once the testing is completed, the Lemeta Steps will definitely retract into a sphere.

But this time it's different.

An Ran sensed the longing expressed by the Lemetta Steps—

The mad scientist found a topic that interested him.

After pondering for a long time, Anran decided to leave the Lemeta Staircase here and let it continue to study the Hollow Stone.

However, to ensure the safety of the Lemetta Staircase, Anran specially spent time creating a very small world to enclose it along with the Hollow Stone.

You can disassemble it when you need it.

After finishing all that, An Ran took An Qianqian hunting.

She wanted to spend more time with Tsykia, but Tsykia was busy with her own things.

For example, consolidating the Silent City's position in the Time Sea Starfield.

With her current strength, she has no rivals in the entire Time Sea Starfield.

……

"Lady Lumina."

In a spare moment in an asteroid belt in outer space, Henrik watched with trepidation as Lumina's figure floated opposite him.

Lumina was expressionless and spoke without any emotion, which made Henrik unable to figure out what she was thinking.

She asked, "What's the attitude from the Eternal Star Road now?"

Henrik immediately replied, "They are very angry that they can't catch Lady Lumina for so long. It seems that some people think that Lumina is deliberately playing games with them. I have refuted this speculation, which worked at first, but recently more and more people have this view."

After a pause, Henrik cautiously asked again, "Lady Lumina, what about the Land of Beginnings..."

"The relocation is almost complete, but the Unbeliever Legion has a very keen sense of smell."

Henrik didn't say anything.

After all, there is a huge soul migration array in the original land.

How could you possibly move that thing without making a sound?

"You don't need to worry about what's going on over there, but what about your side..."

Lumina suddenly narrowed her eyes.

That subtle movement made Henrik's heart skip a beat.

"You seem to be sending messages less frequently lately than before."

Henrik quickly explained, "Lady Lumina, it's not that I'm not doing my job, it's just that this place is heavily guarded. I'm either in a meeting or on my way to one. Finding a safe place like here isn't an easy task."

"I hope so."

Lumina replied calmly.

She continued, "I'm giving you a chance now."

"What opportunity?"

"The credit for annihilating the Silver Moonlight."

"what?"

Henrik paused for a moment.

"Lady Lumina, you mean..."
