Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"I won't stay."

"Our inn may be small, but it has all the necessary facilities, and the environment is no worse than those big hotels. Moreover, the inn is located right next to the mine, and even the famous mine hotels wouldn't dare say they're better than ours. Most importantly, our prices are cheap. Young lady, are you really not interested in considering it?"

What the hell is a "mining pit hotel"?

"Young lady, you've never even heard of a mine hotel?"

"Ah, I'm from out of town. I just arrived on Moritsuba Star yesterday."

"..."

"The Mine Pit Hotel is the most luxurious and unique hotel in Black Mine City. It's built right next to the abandoned mine pit, only one kilometer away from our hotel. You can ask other people if you don't believe me."

"Oh."

Anran nodded and then asked the others. Sure enough, just as this person said, the Mine Hotel was not only famous in Black Mine City, but also a well-known hotel throughout the entire Senting Star.

They lived in the mine.

Whether it's comfortable or not, at least this experience is novel.

"Does the young lady need a room at the hotel?"

"Stay...stay here."

whee.

The man who claimed to be the hotel owner led the way with a smile, and An Ran followed behind with a smile as well.

"Take this young girl inside to see the rooms," the owner said to a man in white.

Reconnaissance skills, level 17.

There were two people playing games in the lobby, one level 22 and the other level 24, both of whom were just casual players.

"okay."

"Young lady, come with me to see the room first."

"Oh."

Ten minutes have passed.

"Boss, how is it going?"

"I've been inside for ten minutes," the boss said with a smile to the white-bearded man who walked in.

"Ten minutes have passed, so it's almost done."

"It should be out soon."

"The quality is so high this time, shouldn't you pay me a little more?" the white-bearded man said with a smile, rubbing his hands together.

The wrinkles on her face were all bunched up together.

The boss laughed and scolded, "You'll get what you're owed. But it's really rare to find such good quality stuff this time."

“I think we should sell her to Starblue Company after we’re done,” the white-bearded man said, stroking his beard.

Within the Blue Forest, Star Blue Company was on par with Muguang Entertainment Company, but due to its poor management practices, outside of the Blue Forest, Star Blue Company was a nobody.

"What are you thinking? This is definitely going to be given to the higher-ups," the boss snapped.

"Who's in charge?"

"You don't even know who's in charge, you..."

Ok?

The boss, who was talking enthusiastically, suddenly froze. Why didn't that voice sound like one of his underlings? No, it was definitely a woman's voice.

Holy crap.

The boss turned his head and saw An Ran standing next to him.

His heart skipped a beat. Had they overheard their conversation?

Depend on.

Wait, didn't that young man take her to see a house? Where did she go?

“You’re here too, sir,” An Ran said. “This Black Mine City is really corrupt.”

"..."

"Heh, so what if you figured it out, brothers... Pfft."

An Ran made her move.

The whole room collapsed.

Because these NPCs were too low-level, there was an experience penalty, so Anran only got a little over 5 experience points.

However, experience is not important; money is.

An Ran found over 4 pesos in cash, along with several bank cards. She broke the cards in half and took all the cash.

Ah, that feels good.

Standing outside the small hotel, I looked at the starry sky and felt the cool evening breeze.

Robbing NPCs is still the fastest way to make money. No wonder the pirate princess Anran was so rich before. She was simply one of the richest "rich women" in the entire "Night of the Stars".

After killing her, the Empire will gain three pounds from every bite.

It's unbearable to repair!

I'm so poor right now.

Anran was very angry.

However, she is now less than an ant in the face of the entire empire, and has no capital to compete with it. She can only take back the wealth that has not yet been devoured by the empire step by step.

4 pesos isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either. It's clearly not enough to get a complete set of equipment. Mechanical firearms aren't expensive, but the internally powered gun is quite pricey. The main problem is the lack of tools.

Ordinary tools simply cannot work on ligne alloy; at the very least, you need blue tools.

Anran strolled around the hardware market and picked out a few commonly used tools.

"That's enough."

Anran has made up her mind to make the mechanic's tool kit herself.

The mechanic's toolkit made of ligne alloy is also considered a purple item.

These tools require a high degree of precision. While Anran's work would be efficient, the results might be slightly less effective. However, Anran had Ella, who guided her step by step. Ella did it smoothly and didn't feel any obstacles, even though it was her first time.

With Lv10 basic mechanical theory, basic assembly, and basic mechanical proficiency, coupled with her innate dexterity and unique skills, Anran can now increase her efficiency in manual mechanical manufacturing by 170%.

It's incredibly fast.

【Mechanic's Toolkit (Purple)】: Tools.

"call--"

An Ran breathed a sigh of relief; her tools of the trade were back.

History will surely remember those NPCs who gave her over 4 Biru.

"Anran, Anran, what do we do now?"

"Make some more weapons, then we'll head straight to Relandor."

On Relandor Star, Ayla immediately marked its location on the map within its core.

As a relatively large planet, Relandor has the Mechanic Guild, the Mechanic Church, and star maps, and it must also have places to recharge private spaceships.

All preparations can be completed on Relandor before heading to White Ocean Star.

An Ran didn't make too many weapons because she didn't have that much money. She made two double-barreled spray guns, a sniper rifle, an armed quadcopter, and two internally powered guns.

Internally powered guns are small firearms with an electromagnetic catapult at their core. They use electromagnetic catapults to launch bullets, and their effects in terms of rate of fire, range, and armor penetration are much stronger than those of ordinary mechanical firearms. They belong to the kinetic energy weapon category.

【Night of the Stars】Mechanical weapons, kinetic weapons and energy weapons are the two largest branches.

"let's go."

"Yes, Anran, after this jump is completed, the spaceship's energy will only be able to travel at warp speed for about 70 light-years."

70 light-years away, you can't even fly out of the map of the front part of the Azure Forest.

Under Ella's control, the spaceship soared into the sky and flew towards the nearest stargate.

Despite the presence of the Star Gate, such small spaceships still fly very "slowly".

Therefore, while she was still on her way, she received a message that the game was going to be updated and maintained.

Career balance adjustment?

Are they really going to buff the Mechanic?

The opening of the competitive mode also feels like it will slow down the pace of players leveling up.

Furthermore, players still have 20 days of game time they can't log in, making this a crucial period to widen the gap.

……

"call--"

"The docking fee is 5000 pesos."

"Give."

It really hurts.

After doing the math, Anran realized she was bankrupt again, with only a little over two thousand pesos left in cash.

Money really flows to me like water.

How tragic.

After leaving the hover station, Anran led Ella all the way to the city of Sarina.

At the entrance of a tall, all-white, monolithic building in the eastern part of the city.

Welcome to the Mechanic's Guild!

A pretty young woman said to Anran and Ella.
