345: Chapter 229: Looking Up at the Stars 345: Chapter 229: Looking Up at the Stars At the side, the Wencheen brothers had burst into excitent upon hearing Xiao Man’s final words.
After all, the opportunity to beco a Transcendent was incredibly thrilling, no matter where one was.
Coming out of the basent, it was already evening outside.
Dane invited them to stay for dinner, suggesting a well-known restaurant in the town.
Xiao Man, seeing that there was nothing pressing for the ti being, readily agreed.
It was already five or six o’clock in England, and back ho it must have been nearly midnight, when most restaurants would likely be closed.
The restaurant they headed to was located on the south side of the small town.
Its na, which Xiao Man couldn’t understand, was larger than the one he and Lin Sisi had previously dined at, with more custors too.
This dinner left a profound impression on Xiao Man, not because the food was particularly delicious, but because of a dish claid to be a local specialty known for its darkness.
“So this is the legendary ‘Gazing at the Stars,’ indeed as nauseating as it seed online….”
Xiao Man looked at a dish on the table resembling a bread pie, on top of which lay seven or eight large fish heads gazing skyward, killing one’s appetite instantly, no wonder it was mockingly referred to as ‘dying with eyes open.’
Lin Sisi, for her part, due to her blindness, boldly tried it and found it quite good, saying that if one disregarded its appearance and focused solely on the taste, it could be considered a delicacy.
Xiao Man knew that if the restaurant dared to serve it, it must not taste particularly bad, but looking at those disgusting dead fish heads, he had no desire to put them in his mouth.
It reminded him of the fine dining at Dragon Sleep Mountain, which genuinely achieved an excellence in flavor, look, and aroma.
He decided he would eat on the island tomorrow noon, and try Ye Fei’s cooking skills again.
After finishing the al and returning to the estate, more than an hour had elapsed.
Xiao Man knew about the current financial situation of the Wencheen family, and after much consideration, he said to the two brothers,
“Guardians have silently protected the world for nearly a thousand years.
We need to work together and make sacrifices to better harness our abilities.
Starting now, I want you to focus on the developnt of the estate, hire the right people, cultivate the land here to grow food which can later provide a food source for the Star Alliance.”
“Furthermore, the estate’s buildings need to be expanded.
As a branch location, we need more houses and accommodations.
Of course, all expenses will be charged to your cards.
I hope you can hasten the construction here and also never neglect the planting and cultivation of the Touching Spirit Flowers….”
Subsequently, Xiao Man carefully laid out the future developnt plans for the place and promised to help the two complete their Awakening and officially join the Star Alliance within a month.
He then left with Lin Sisi in an anti-gravity car.
The Wencheen brothers, watching the grand silhouette of the anti-gravity car slowly vanish, couldn’t help but show expressions of imnse expectation and envy, their minds fired up by the promise made earlier.
After returning ho from England, it was already past 1:00 a.m.
Lin Sisi was extrely tired.
Xiao Man sent her ho and then teleported himself back to his own place.
…
The next day, in the Heritage Land of Rebirth Island,
Five craftsn had already begun the repair work there, with the main task currently on Tang Xueke.
Before everyone started, she needed to prepare a detailed blueprint first.
She was a doctorate from Yueji University and also had rich practical experience, even having a few rather famous projects under her belt that she had participated in designing.
She was arguably the strongest among them.
At this mont, Tang Xueke was frowning at a 3D blueprint in front of her—provided by Xiao Man—which included the entire structure and data information of the island collected by the Star Rank.
“Considering this area and depth, to be safe, we could dig down to about 200 ters, roughly 50 floors at most.
This place is indeed bigger than I initially imagined.”
“Oh, also the floor, it would be best to create a landing pad, so that it can conveniently accommodate the anti-gravity car in the future…”
Tang Xueke spoke while rapidly sketching the draft on paper.
Within a short while, a fairly large-scale design draft had already been produced.
However, this was only a semi-finished product, still in its raw stone version.
The detailed contents still needed her continuous refinent.
Beside her, the others were also busy.
Although they now had to wait for the blueprints to begin the formal construction, they could still advance on so of the more obvious damages.
Thus, under the help of the World Tree, they began repairing the damaged areas using Crystal Gel.
Outside, a figure clad in a black robe suddenly walked in, it was Zhang Xiaoman.
“Star Lord.”
Seeing him, everyone promptly greeted him following the ritual they had observed from the armored knight they encountered the previous day.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at them sowhat unexpectedly, “No need for such formalities, I’m just here to look around, don’t mind .”
He spoke and walked straight to a chair he had placed earlier, took out the newly concocted dicine from yesterday from his chest, and drank it all in one breath.
Activating the Spirit Detection Technique, a warm sensation perated his entire body, feeling very comfortable, Zhang Xiaoman closed his eyes and began to keenly feel the changes brought about by the dicine.
“Hmm?
It doesn’t seem different, according to the formula, this should enhance the efficiency of Dark Energy training, let see if it actually works…”
As he spoke, a fla sprouted from his fingertips, a small dragon ford of fire circled in his palm, its appearance incredibly lively, as if it were real.
Zhang Xiaoman followed his usual thod of training Dark Energy and began his training.
This kind of training was actually quite simple, and didn’t require any special conditions or formulas, just continuous consumption of Dark Energy was sufficient.
Even if Zhang Xiaoman was not using any skills, rely sitting there and running Dark Energy in idle would work, as long as he kept consuming energy continuously.
Of course, this also involved so skills; his rate of consumption neither could be too fast nor too slow, maintaining a balance was best.
It was like jogging for weight loss, running too fast would quickly sap your physical strength, too slow and it wouldn’t be effective; one must grasp a speed that suited their own physical strength.
Of course, Zhang Xiaoman was different from others because he possessed a fourth-tier Starry Stone and a Polar Star Robe which increased Dark Energy recovery by 100%, so his efficiency was higher than others.
Actually, this kind of training also indirectly increased the proficiency of Dark Energy, not only allowing opportunities to familiarize oneself with the properties of Dark Energy particles, but also to increase the proficiency of certain formulas.
