399: Chapter 283: Uninvited Guest 399: Chapter 283: Uninvited Guest Having assigned the tasks, Zhang Xiaoman checked the group’s control over Dark Energy.
It was comforting that during this period, none of them had been slacking off, which was evident from the increase in everyone’s Dark Energy limit.
Among them, aside from Lin Sisi’s demon-level talent, the one who progressed the fastest was none other than Elder Ye Cang.
By now, he had mastered the three basic Magic Techniques set by Zhang Xiaoman and was currently consolidating his basics, considering which aspect to develop towards next.
The so-called “Three Basic Techniques” were actually the most widely required and practical trio within the Dark Energy Formula, consisting of Spirit Detection Technique, Violent Spirit Technique, and Teleportation Technique.
As far as the Magic Techniques Zhang Xiaoman currently controlled, these three were the most basic and had the highest applicability.
The Spirit Detection Technique could be used to open one’s field of view, an indispensable basic skill, as visibility and information are always crucial.
Alien Species are adept at hiding, with so even capable of invisibility and burrowing underground, so with such a skill akin to X-ray vision, the combat power of Awakeners could also see a significant increase.
As for Violent Spirit Technique and Teleportation Technique, one directly provides killing power, while the other offers high mobility and a ans of evacuation.
Though the Violent Spirit Technique consus 40 points of mana, for newcors with a Dark Energy limit of just over 100, they could almost fire it only twice before running out.
But never underestimate this skill—its damage is Dark Energy Damage; physical defenses are nearly nonexistent against it, akin to what one might call “true damage” in gas.
Moreover, reality differs from gas, where you throw a heap of abilities to kill one monster; it is not so in real life.
For ordinary Alien Species, a hit to the head or other weak points by a Violent Spirit Technique could very likely an instant death.
Battles tend to be quick affairs, rarely involving prolonged tugging.
Thus, once mbers of the Star Alliance mastered the Violent Spirit Technique, even with a body as aged as Elder Ye Cang’s, defeating a monster alone was not out of the question.
It was just that Mr.
Ye preferred to cultivate his body and pursue immortality on the Immortal Path.
Otherwise, with his current level of ability, he could probably solo a Level 1 monster.
Among these people, the elder was among those with higher talent, but if we talk about the strongest combat power, it certainly had to be Lord Bear.
Lord Bear himself was originally an elite soldier from special forces.
Although his combat power had decreased sowhat since his discharge, his abilities were still not to be underestimated.
Now that he had beco an Awakener, his strength was only higher than before.
Under Zhang Xiaoman’s guidance, it was best for everyone to specialized in one direction in the early stage and strike in a squad formation, thus quickly forming an effective combat force and filling the gaps for each other.
Lord Bear was already capable of using the three basic Magic Techniques and was currently learning Constitution Enhancent, perfectly suited to leverage his formidable combat abilities.
The progress of others wasn’t as fast, with Su Fu being the slowest—he had only just mastered the Spirit Detection Technique and still couldn’t always use it successfully.
However, Zhang Xiaoman didn’t bla him, as he never considered Su Fu a combat mber type to begin with.
Moreover, among them, Su Fu really was the most hardworking, as the success of the new building materials market in Arica these days was largely thanks to his efforts.
“All right, everyone take a break now.
You can have lunch here before leaving, and if there’s anything urgent, just let know.
I’ll arrange for you to board the Dawn and leave first…”
“Also, if you need to practice Dark Energy, it’s best to go to the Seven-star Lake.
The environnt outside is already being reford, so everyone be careful during practice, try not to damage the environnt.”
After giving so instructions, everyone dispersed, but no one left imdiately; everyone wanted to stay and try out Ye Fei’s cooking.
Usually, because they were occupied with tasks and it was inconvenient to co and go, they couldn’t always eat here.
Now that they had the chance, how could they let it slip by?
Watching the departing figures of people chatting with each other, Zhang Xiaoman felt very reassured.
Counting five craftsn and Ye Fei the chef, the Star Alliance currently had a total of 19 mbers.
Now, everyone had their roles, and although the scale still looked small, it at least appeared sowhat established.
It’s important to note that he had built this from nothing bit by bit, and moreover, on a newly born island.
This wasn’t as simple as posting a job listing online and then, whoosh, hiring dozens of employees in one day.
In the early stages of its developnt, concealnt was of utmost importance to the Star Alliance.
Given the strength of the organization at the beginning, once exposed in front of national-level powers, it would only take minutes to be banned.
Fortunately, the Star Alliance had now begun to grow, possessing the powers of the World Tree and the Shadow Lord.
With its tactical location, if the Star Alliance intended to stay hidden or defend, others truly had no easy way against it.
By his side, Lin Sisi had been standing next to Zhang Xiaoman throughout.
Since yesterday’s incident, their relationship had increasingly beco closer.
How could Zhang Xiaoman possibly not notice this feeling?
The ring that the little girl always wore on her left middle finger said it all.
If this were to be called an engagent ring, then it might be the most expensive ring in the whole world, or even the entire universe.
While talking to Lin Sisi, a voice from the Star Rank suddenly rang in Zhang Xiaoman’s ear.
“Star Lord, unusual dark energy fluctuations have been detected within the mainfra range, and they have been marked on your map for you.”
“Dark energy fluctuations?”
Zhang Xiaoman frowned, then imdiately activated his wristwatch, opening the map on it.
Soon after, a projection shot out from the watch, casting onto his spread-open palm.
Displayed before him was the map of the entire Seven-star Lake, where a large moving light spot was visible.
From the 3D interface, it was clear that the object was located at the bottom of the lake.
“Brother Xiao Man, what’s happening?” Lin Sisi asked.
Zhang Xiaoman looked serious as he reassured her,
“It’s nothing, just an uninvited guest in Seven-star Lake.
You wait here for , I’ll go check it out.”
…
Elsewhere, above Seven-star Lake, the fog was heavy today, and the sunlight seed to be filtered, casting the surroundings in a dreamlike painting.
The surface of the lake was very calm and the air was moist.
Taking a deep breath felt sweet, much like walking after the rain, involuntarily relaxing one’s pores completely.
“Shush~~~~~”
The tranquility was broken by the noisy sound of an engine, splashing water as a small boat sped through this picturesque scene.
There were seven or eight fully ard soldiers seated on it.
These individuals were all dressed in camouflage, with a flag of floral bars on their shoulders, evidently a group of Arican soldiers here for exploration.
