Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"The more the better."

Vesta turned his attention to the other few non-orbiting whales.

Regardless of what An Ran thought, he put away the box and charged aggressively towards the remaining sourceless whales.

Looking at that tall and imposing figure, An Ran was so moved that she almost cried!

You're truly something, worthy of being a top-tier star field ruler!

As soon as the source of the whale was detected, An Ran immediately received a notification from the game.

Because the dimensional binding dealt a very high amount of damage, Anran reaped extremely rich rewards.

With a 37.2% output share, the experience gain is 8928 billion points!

At the same time, Anran's kill mission was also completed.

The experience reward is 8000 billion points.

There are also two rare materials from the Void Whale—

【Passive whale bone】and 【Energy absorption coating】.

It can be used to make special armor, and if applied to Anran's mechanical armor, it can greatly enhance their defensive capabilities.

There are four more cephalopod whales over there.

"I'll help you!"

With a loud shout, An Ran led his mechanized troops forward.

After a relentless and all-out attack, the remaining four whales collapsed amidst their cries of agony.

"It's a pity we couldn't capture them alive."

An Ran shook her head.

But she was already very satisfied.

Even though her output contribution was not high, these four slightly weaker source whales still provided her with more than two trillion experience points.

Including the previous stock, it's enough to safely level up to level 235 in one go.

Her own personal machine—she'd been waiting for this for a long time!

Anran was happy, and Vesta was happy too.

He came here specifically to collect the black mist, never expecting the operation to go so smoothly.

"Hahaha."

Vesta laughed inwardly.

It's a huge regret that we couldn't figure out the principle behind the Dragon Slayer's Hand, but if we could understand the principle behind this black mist, then the Dragon Slayer's Hand wouldn't matter.

The ultimate goal of Vesta is to achieve long-range operations where only machines are visible, not personnel.

He was a mechanical emperor; how could an emperor personally lead a campaign unless absolutely necessary?

Nobody wants a nickname like "God of the Gaoliang River".

After smilingly putting away the black mist, Vesta refocused his attention on the illusory chasm.

He was looking, looking very carefully.

After looking for a long time, I still didn't get anything out of it.

His level of knowledge does not support him in answering this question.

"never mind."

Vesta gave up thinking.

This channel has always existed in the Hidden Sandbar, and there haven't been any problems for so many years, so he doesn't need to worry at all.

Even if something really happens, it will be the Exiled Empire and the Mechanicus that suffer.

Vesta put away his mechanical troops and turned to leave.

But then An Ran called out to him.

"Ok?"

Vesta looked at Anran with a puzzled expression.

Then I saw An Ran smiling and giving a thumbs up.

d(*￣▽￣)=====b

"Great!"

Ha ha.

Vesta gave a cold laugh.

Do you really need to tell me that?

You're still far behind me!

Vesta tossed his robes aside, turned and left without a second thought.

Watching his receding figure, An Ran couldn't help but sigh.

"it's a pity."

Wow, it feels so great to be guided by a pro player in a game!

It's a pity that this is the only chance.

If this happens a couple more times, Anran might just turn around and use Vesta as experience points.

"Let's go back first."

Before leaving, Anran forwarded the news of this strange ditch to the Exiled Empire, letting them worry about it slowly.

An Ran pulled the spaceship out.

She leisurely leveled herself up to level 235, and before she could even click the career advancement button, she discovered that Vesta had returned.

"Um, is there something you need?" An Ran asked.

Vesta looked rather grim, but it didn't seem to be directed at her.

When Anran asked the question, Vesta's expression was uncertain, and he remained silent for a long time.

"?"

All I did was say you were amazing.

"If you don't say anything, I'm leaving," An Ran said.

Vesta nodded: "You can go now."

Get sick!

An Ran pursed her lips.

The spaceship flew forward for a while longer, and Anran noticed that Vesta was still hanging behind.

"..."

She simply stopped the spaceship.

Anran addressed Vesta: "You neither fight nor retreat, what exactly are you trying to do?"

His eyes held a scrutinizing gaze.

"..."

"Heh." An Ran sneered, "Then let's just wait and see who has more patience!"

Upon hearing this, Vesta couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

He didn't want to.

But there is no way.

“I’m lost,” Vesta said.

Snapped.

An Ran slapped her thigh hard.

What?

She doubted she had misheard, but Vesta's expression looked very sincere.

It's probably because... we jumped too many times during the pursuit of the sourceless whale, and the battle just now caused spatial fluctuations to become disordered.

An Ran's lips twitched.

"Then you can follow slowly from behind."

She still needs to collect her own exclusive equipment.

Vesta had a blank expression.

That's so damn embarrassing.

He didn't say much, and just followed An Ran's spaceship at a leisurely pace. After returning to the familiar location, Vesta left without saying a word.

Chapter 48 Mechanical Seekers

After Vesta left, An Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, at first she was quite suspicious that getting lost was an excuse Vesta made up on purpose, just to teach her a lesson.

But now it seems I was overthinking it.

"I didn't expect that."

Anran turned off the game map.

What spatial fluctuations, what automatic navigation, what spatial positioning...
