"Well," Su Xing began, crossing his arms thoughtfully. "First, you can select a few free items with a total worth of up to 500 source points from our alliance store. Consider it a welco gift."
He continued, ticking off the benefits one by one. "Second, you'll gain quick access to crucial information on resource locations, trading opportunities, and even the whereabouts of Alien Lords, monster dens, and more. It'll save you ti, and possibly your life."
"And one more thing: you might not find it yet but, unless you reach Tier 4 lord, you won't be able to access the Regional Space Market. But by joining an alliance, you'll have full access to the alliance store."
After a pause, he continued, "Although it is not as good as Reginal Store, it also ans that even at Tier 3, you can still buy exclusive items, resource cards, legion and troop cards, building blueprints, and more."
"There's plenty of other good things too—like requesting help from other mbers if you're up against a stronger enemy or need an extra hand to conquer monster dens or resource points."
"Sounds good," Just as Ram nodded his head and showed interest, an invitation prompt appeared in front of him.

With a triumphant clap, Su Xing grinned. "Perfect! Now that you're officially one of us, I'll introduce you to the rest of the functions." His excitent was contagious, and Ram couldn't help but feel a surge of confidence.
"Most functions are pretty straightforward," Su Xing explained, waving his hand as though brushing aside any complications.
"For the next three months, you'll have a free trial period to enjoy all the alliance buffs. But after that, each buff has a separate fee."
He leaned in, eting Ram's gaze to drive the point ho. "Don't think of it as an expense—these buffs enhance your entire territory's performance. But, maintaining them also requires Source Power."
Ram nodded thoughtfully, considering the investnt. It was clear Su Xing was offering him a gateway into sothing greater, yet there were no illusions about the costs involved.
"Well, that's the gist of it," Su Xing concluded, straightening up with a smile. "The rest is up to you to discover. Dive into the alliance chat, explore the store, and keep an eye on those resource reports. The more you engage, the faster you'll grow."
He clapped Ram on the shoulder. "Make the most of this opportunity, and feel free to ask or any of the other mbers if you need any information. We're all here to help each other, after all."
Nodding, Ram quickly opened the alliance interface and took in the details. Including himself, the alliance had twenty-five mbers.
Except for himself, every single one of them was above Tier 4, which was humbling yet motivating at the sa ti.
He flicked through the chat channel and found that there was not much activity in it, so he decided to skip it for now, shifting his attention to the alliance store instead.
Inside, he found an impressive selection of items.
However, nearly everything he glanced at carried price tags exceeding a thousand Source Points each to tens of thousands.
He imdiately felt depressed again, and shot a resigned look at Su Xing, silently asking, 'Where's this so-called free item you promised?'
Su Xing chuckled, reading his expression perfectly. "Haha, brother, don't give up just yet. There are plenty of items you can use... keep scrolling down."
"The higher-tier stuff might be out of reach for now, but you'll find what you need if you look below."
Ram took a steadying breath and scrolled further; the items began to feel more within reach.
Here, he found a variety of low-level resources, and basic skill cards—all priced at or under 500 Source Points.
One, in particular, caught his eye: a Basic Recruitnt Card, he already had about eighty of them but, knowing that there were more than six thousand caven, but he hesitated, whether to buy more or use a different thod.
From the exchange offer, he can buy ten basic recruitnt cards for one point of source power, which seed cheaper than expected, he ultimately chose to use Sylvan Spirit Rebirth on the caven.
Although it seed cruel to kill all of them and collect their souls converting them into wood spirits can imdiately increase the number of his troops and also increase their individual potential.
Scrolling further, he found resource cards that intrigued him. Each card offered either food, wood, stone, or other basic supplies.
Most lacked any specific quality designation, but they had different quantities stored and prices based on that—so focused on bulk quantities of standard-grade items, while others offered fewer resources at a notably higher quality.
He selected a few cards packed with large quantities of ordinary-grade food—rice, corn, dried at, wood, and stones—all of which could sustain the caven population if he decided to include them inside his space.
Essential resources like them won't go to waste but can be used when needed, so he made the purchase without hesitation.
Moving deeper into the store's selection, he found weapon cards with an impressive range: cold weapons, firearms, and even advanced weaponry.
Unfortunately, the prices were very high compared to the prices at the Shadow Society, so he rely inspected them.
Ram didn't have any specific target in mind, so he continued scrolling down to enrich his knowledge, taking his ti to read descriptions of any item that looked particularly interesting or unique.
Su Xing watched Ram's exploration in silence, a thoughtful smile on his face.
Observing Ram's choices, he quickly confird what he'd suspected Ram was a Wild Lord, completely new to the Lord system.
Unlike most Lords, who were well-versed in resource types and strategies, Ram seed unfamiliar with even the basics.
Still, Su Xing didn't look down on him. He knew how rare and challenging it was for a Tier 3 professional without any backing to beco a Lord, where all the crucial information about Lords is heavily restricted.
Request for Leave: Sorry guys, I'll be taking a short leave for a few days... and continue with new updates later.
