Five days had passed since Bai Fu's television interview.
For those five days, Bai Fu had gone nowhere, staying at the Initial Gate Star Contract's division in the Initial Gate Star System Group.
Ever since the reputation of Dark Moon Tide had spread, the private ssage inbox of her commission platform account had consistently maintained over 99 ssages.
At first, she took it upon herself to filter tasks suitable for players and assign them, but as ti passed, she had to have Xia Shi create an AI specifically for assigning tasks to players.
"I'm exhausted."
Bai Fu rubbed her temples.
But despite being tired, her mood was still very good.
These days, by taking a commission from the tasks, renting out little Black Fu, and selling Prayer Cards and Recovery Potions, she had earned a large amount of Credit Points. This way of making money was much faster than doing comrcials, where she had to pose and morize lines. Now that the business of Dark Moon Tide was on track, she just needed to take ti to connect with major clients.
"Once Julia figures out Cecilia's hair, I'll have her co to be my secretary. Then, when there's work, the secretary does it, and when there's not..."
Hehe, of course, it's ti to slack off.
Bai Fu cheerfully opened the package in front of her, which contained the Spiritual Ability Crystal Stones she had just purchased. Now that she had money, it was ti to upgrade her spiritual ability constructions.
She spent a total of 128 Spiritual Ability Crystal Stones to upgrade both her combat suit and Dark Wand from Lv6 to Lv10.
The combat suit [Suit II] now had bonuses of Power 95, Agility 152, and -10% physical damage taken, while the [Dark Wand] had bonuses of Spiritual Ability Skill effect 43%, Inspiration 70.
"Not bad, though the increase isn't huge, small gains add up to significant changes."
Bai Fu nodded satisfactorily, then spent another 120 Spiritual Ability Crystal Stones to upgrade both Phantom Construction and Apostle Will to Lv4, allowing her to contract four upgradable spiritual ability constructions.
The only problem was she currently lacked useful spiritual ability construction blueprints and had to continue using Shadow Fufu to fill the new construction slots, waiting for a rare blueprint to replace them.
"Advanced spiritual ability construction blueprints are hard to co by in the general market. To get my hands on them, I only have two options: purchase them from big powers or farm task rewards."
Bai Fu felt helpless.
If only the Oath Lord were from the Spiritual Ability System sect, she wouldn't have to go through such trouble.
Unfortunately, across the entire Edge World, there weren't many high-level practitioners of the Spiritual Ability Sect, and most of the dominator level and above superpower users from the sect were concentrated in the Rebirth Empire and the Supernova Battle Group.
Just as Bai Fu was feeling troubled, her communicator suddenly vibrated, the contact was Digging Girl.
Digging Girl?
Bai Fu was startled for a mont before pressing the connect button.
"Is there an ergency you need for?"
Digging Girl's anxious voice ca through the communicator: "Fufu, I just received a ssage from those Undying People in the Secret Tower saying they suddenly got an ergency task and are now getting ready to embark on a mission."
Oh?
Bai Fu's eyes narrowed slightly. Was the chess piece she had planted in the Secret Tower finally going to co into play?
"Did they ntion what the task was specifically?"
"The people from the Secret Tower didn't tell them the details, just that they were going out to deal with other Undying People and to prepare themselves ntally. Oh, and it seems that the Secret Tower has deployed three S level individuals, as well as a very powerful Starry Sky Giant Beast."
"I see. Thank you for telling this information so promptly."
Although the people from the Secret Tower didn't specify, the situation was clear; their target for this outing was Ulysses Star.
The fish had finally bitten the hook!
Bai Fu smiled.
Now that the Secret Tower was in motion, it was ti for her to step onto the stage.
...
Several days passed in a flash.
On Ulysses Star, robot engineering troops were bustling around, with the roaring noises of construction machinery everywhere.
Tens of thousands of players moved eagerly around the construction site, doing what they could manage.
At the monitoring outpost, a few off-duty players, with nothing better to do, were intensely playing on the "Cosmic Net."
"Haha, watch my Fufu charge!"
"Rebound, rebound!"
Laughter echoed within the outpost, weaving an image of peaceful tis, but just then, the outpost's monitoring computer screen suddenly flashed with glaring red alert ssages.
"Unknown disturbance detected, unknown disturbance detected, coordinates are..."
What?
The players, who had been playing cards, stood up quickly, all crowding in front of the computer screen.
"Quick, pull up the monitoring feed from that area."
One player urged, while another rapidly typed on the control panel. Soon, the live monitoring feed was displayed on the screen.
The first thing that ca into view was a piece of space junk flying rapidly past, followed by a ripple of dark distortions appearing in the depth of space, with bubbles bursting forth. The next second, a giant beast wrapped in flowing black ooze erged from the ripple.
Moo! Enjoy the story by reading on *.
The beast howled silently into the depths of space, and once it was fully free from the ripple's bonds, it swung its massive tail and headed straight for Ulysses Star.
"Holy shit, what kind of monster is that?"
"It's a Starry Sky Giant Beast, Fufu encountered one on Heavenly Lake Star!"
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
"Stop attacking, and contact Fufu quickly!"
Rescue signals flew like snowflakes toward Bai Fu and the Star Network.
"Have they discovered us already?"
Inside the insect room that had been built within the giant beast, commanders from the Secret Tower's dispatched action team gathered together, the leading figure being Morrison, an S level superpower user and one of the Secret Tower's trump cards.
