325: Chapter 209 Preparation for Upgrade 325: Chapter 209 Preparation for Upgrade Zhang Xiaoman pondered for a mont, then nodded, “Alright, if you’re willing to do it, I’ll leave these matters to you.
I do, however, want to see results, and I hope you won’t ss it up.”
Weiss smiled and gave a bow, “Don’t worry, I’m a professional.”
“Good, give your account number, and I’ll transfer the money.”
“Haha, a mage sure is straightforward!”
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head without explaining anything, and after waiting for Lord Bear to collect the snake venom, he led the group away.
The snake venom had to be carefully preserved, and Weiss’s car had a refrigerated box specifically for storing it.
Zhang Xiaoman didn’t leave imdiately; instead, he went to a small cabin ahead and directed the Star Guard to bury Old Toby’s body, along with the black dog at the door.
Although he didn’t know the customs of the African people in this regard, he could only simplify everything now.
It was certainly better to have a proper burial than to be left in the wilderness.
“This bounty hunter seems skillful; we can communicate more and establish long-term cooperation, especially with his team behind him.
Make more contacts with them, and in future similar events, we can cooperate with them.”
Zhang Xiaoman softly told Xiao Shun at the edge of the woods.
He planned to use the Light Blue Clan as an interdiary to connect with these experienced bounty hunters and see if there were any opportunities for cooperation or even to directly recruit them into the organization.
“That’s enough, I see the fog is dissipating, and it might return to normal soon.
I’ve also called the anti-gravity car to co here; you guys can leave on it when it arrives.”
After saying this, he teleported ho, having only eaten half his lunch earlier and needed to finish the rest.
The people of the Light Blue Clan watched him leave, longing in their hearts for the ability to teleport, which they all deeply admired, though regrettably, they had not acquired the necessary Dark Energy Technique.
“Oh my god, that’s so cool!
To be able to teleport anywhere at will, how convenient that would be!
If I could do it too, I would travel to every place in the world within a single day!”
Seeing Zhang Xiaoman teleporting so effortlessly, Weiss almost had the word ‘envy’ written across his face, his previous sadness over his car being attacked fading into the background.
“By the way, when will this fog clear up?
Will a flying car really co to pick you up soon?
Can I have a look inside?”
His curiosity was insatiable as he bombarded them with questions until he saw the mysterious black aircraft and finally halted in amazent.
“Oh!
No!
I’ve finally found my true love!
My god!
She’s even more beautiful than the prettiest girl in the world!!”
Weiss imdiately fell for the new love, completely forgetting his old one, Cassandra.
The others were rendered speechless, silently criticizing him as a player.
Leaving aside the situation in Africa, after Zhang Xiaoman returned ho, he entertained the guests who ca to his house for a while, enjoying a rare relaxing afternoon before activating the Starry Stone and heading to Rebirth Island.
He now had four portions of Star Dust and more than 80 points, and felt it was necessary to plan how to use them to enhance his strength better.
First was the Star Dust; it was still most cost-effective to obtain it through lottery.
Ten points were needed to exchange for one portion, and with those points, he’d rather Upgrade.
Zhang Xiaoman spent one Star Dust to buy his mother a Star Network Terminal, then used the remaining three portions to increase the population limit of the gang, activating Brother Hero, Lin Sisi, and Ye Cang, raising the population from 3/3 to 6/6.
With this, the first batch of Awakeners had completed the basic setup, fulfilling his initial plan: each person having a Star Network Terminal, Daring Clothes, a Starry Stone, and the corresponding population limit on the gang list activated.
“The first batch of Awakeners has finally completed all the setups; it’s ti to focus on the second batch of mbers now.”
Zhang Xiaoman organized his thoughts and made plans for the next steps.
Having used all the Star Dust, it was ti to consider the expenditure of points.
Actually, there was one issue he was still very conflicted about: whether to use all his points for Upgrades or to procure the basic equipnt for the new mbers.
Both options had their advantages and disadvantages.
If he chose to Upgrade first, the benefit was that if he randomly obtained powerful Skills or items, it would significantly enhance his combat abilities.
The downside was the randomness of the Upgrade; if he got useless items similar to a Dragon Egg, then he would waste a lot of points.
On the other hand, if he bought Starry Stones and other items first, it would boost everyone’s enthusiasm and their safety; in dangerous situations, they could teleport to escape.
Of course, the disadvantage was that it would delay his plan to enhance his own strength.
Zhang Xiaoman thought for a long ti but couldn’t co to a conclusion.
He decided to try two Upgrades first to see if he could trigger his long-missed luck.
Opening the System interface and clicking the Upgrade button, Zhang Xiaoman felt a bit nervous.
After all, it had been so ti since he had used this feature.
As his finger pressed down, the System imdiately provided the result.
“Randomizing Upgrade, please wait…”
“Upgrade complete, green grade Skill——Soaring Beyond the Void, successfully upgraded to green grade Skill——Soaring Beyond the Void·Second Level.”
Zhang Xiaoman furrowed his brows, then opened the Skill panel to check, feeling sowhat resigned that his first Upgrade appeared to be a waste.
[Soaring Beyond the Void]〖Second Level〗

Like the other Sword Formation Skills, it improved the attributes across the board, appearing very impressive, but for the current Zhang Xiaoman, it was sowhat superfluous.
