Sure enough, just as Diana had thought, Lin Zhen's clone was in the dimensional universe at this moment, preparing to apply for a feudal lord.
He wanted to drive the empire's army out of Earth, and the best way was to become a feudal lord.
According to the empire's laws, all nobles of the empire could obtain a fief, but they had to pay a large fee.
A knight could obtain a fief of a planet at most, while a baron could obtain a fief of an asteroid system.
A viscount's fief was divided according to the number of stars. A side of 100,000 stars was the largest range of a viscount's fief.
A count's fief was much larger, ranging from 1 million star kilometers to 10 million star kilometers. If you spend a little money, then that would be the lowest standard. If you're willing to spend a lot of money, then 10 million star kilometers of land could also be granted.
The so-called ten million stars was basically equivalent to one light-year.
If Lin Zhen wanted to obtain a fief, of course, he had to choose the largest one and completely drive these people out of his fief. At that time, with Earth as the core, a cube of one light-year's length would be his fief. Then, no matter who wanted to come to Earth, it would not be a simple matter.
Lin Zhen had never applied for a fief before. He followed Chris's instructions and came to the empire's government office, which was responsible for the application and issuance of fiefs.
"Hello, I would like to apply for a fief."
Lin Zhen stood at the door and said to the guard.
A scanning light swept past Lin Zhen, and soon Lin Zhen's identity was confirmed.
"Earl Lin Zhen, please come in."
The image flashed, and Lin Zhen was already in the reception room. A knight staff member received him.
"Earl Lin Zhen, are you a native of the solar system?"
"Yes, I was born on Earth in the solar system. Now that I've become a noble, according to the empire's customs, I can apply for my hometown to become my fief."
"You're right. There is such a custom, but you have to pay a fee to apply for a fief."
"How much is the fee?"
"Let me calculate for you. This is based on the area of your territory, the number of planets, the number of planets, the number of planets with life, resource planets, wormholes, and other valuable celestial bodies in the explored areas. It's very complicated. Please wait a moment."
Lin Zhen picked up the teacup on the table and slowly tasted it. He had a feeling that the fief application wouldn't go smoothly.
After about half an hour, the staff member came back. "Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Earl. The calculation is done. How much land do you want to apply for?"
"A thousand kilometers on each side."
"Then you need to pay 500 billion Skyriver Dollars."
Lin Zhen rubbed his chin. "500 billion …"
Buying a Trapping Net would cost 100 billion, and buying land would cost another 500 billion. There was simply no way to find these funds.
"Then let me apply for it first. I'll think of a way to get the money, but the application must be done as soon as possible."
"That won't do. If you apply, you'll have to pay half of the fee first to prove that you have the financial ability."
Lin Zhen glanced at the staff member and asked, "Can I pass if I pay half of it?"
The staff member was a little hesitant and avoided answering.
Lin Zhen smiled. "Sir, you can cancel the synchronized record first. I have something to say to you alone."
The staff member hesitated for a moment, but still turned off the synchronized record. This way, no information would be left, and no one would be able to see their conversation during this period.
"Give me your account number, and then I'll give you 100 million. Tell me the truth. What's the problem with my fief application?"
The staff member thought for a moment and whispered a string of account numbers.
Lin Zhen immediately transferred the money, and 100 million was quickly transferred to his account.
"It's like this, Mr. Earl. Your fief is now a bit controversial. Miss Diana, the Imperial Earl, said that her army first discovered the starry sky of your hometown. She also has the right to apply."
"She doesn't have a fief herself? She can't apply for it anymore, right? "
"Yes, we also replied to her in the same way. However, she applied to postpone your application for 20 days. This matter has already been approved by the Duke in charge, so you won't be able to get your fief for the time being."
Hearing the staff member's words, Lin Zhen immediately thought of the crux of the matter.
Diana was stalling for time. She wanted to wait for the second batch of assassins to arrive. As long as he was killed at that time, she could stay on Earth legitimately.
If he got the fief, he could expel her.
The staff member said again, "You may not know, but Miss Diana is a Gold 4-star Shura warrior in the Shura Arena. Even the Empire has to give her some face. This matter … Unless you can also be promoted to an Shura warrior, then your application will be approved. Otherwise, there's no way."
In his opinion, it was impossible for Lin Zhen to get a fief for the time being. The Shura Arena could only be entered by Wei Zhou. Moreover, one had to win a thousand matches with a winning rate of more than 80% to get the title of Shura. How could Lin Zhen, a Level 9 Comet, do it?
Moreover, Diana was a Gold 4-star, which proved that she had won more than 8,000 matches in the Shura Arena, and her winning rate was more than 90%. It was even more impossible for Lin Zhen to achieve it in a short time.
Lin Zhen knew the truth of the matter. He stood up and nodded: "Thank you, I understand."
"I didn't say anything." The staff member smiled and stood up to send him off.
*****
After leaving the Dimensional Universe, Lin Zhen silently pondered for a while.
Now that he wanted to get a fief, he had to fulfill two conditions.
One was to become an Shura warrior, and the other was to have a large amount of money.
His main body was currently breaking through on the Moon. As long as he entered the Star Realm, Lin Zhen's doppelganger would be able to enter Wei Zhou and participate in the Shura Arena.
After obtaining the identity of an Shura warrior, one could get a loan. Because the Shura Arena belonged to the entire Sanjiang Federation, the loan was also 3 River Dollars.
A Silver 1-star Shura could get a loan of 10 million 3 River Dollars. A 5-star Shura could get a loan of 50 million, and the highest Nine Star Shura could get a loan of 90 million.
A Gold 1-star Shura could get a loan of 130 million 3 River Dollars.
A Red 1-star Shura could get a loan of 1 billion 3 River Dollars.
And a Crown Shura King could get a loan of 10 billion 3 River Dollars!
Lin Zhen's application for the fief and the purchase of the Trapping Net would require at least 600 billion Sky River Dollars. If converted to 3 River Dollars, it would be 600 million.
"If I want to get 600 million 3 River Dollars, then I have to at least reach the Gold 6-star Arena. Every time I increase my star rank, the number of victories I need to win will double. A 1-star Arena requires a thousand victories, and a 6-star Arena requires at least thirty-two thousand victories. It's impossible to do that in such a short time."
"So what I need to strive for is to become a Red 1-star Shura and have a 95% win rate. I need to win at least a thousand battles."
"In my previous life, I didn't participate in the Shura Arena. I wonder what level my doppelganger would be at in the Shura Arena after entering the Satellite Realm?"
"However, I have to become a Red 1-star Shura no matter what. Diana wants to stop me from becoming the Lord of this Starry Sky. She has it all planned out, but I can't let her succeed."
"Now it's time to see what level my main body will reach in this crucial breakthrough …"
*****
On the Moon, the dark energy in the universe quickly gathered on Lin Zhen's body.
At this moment, Lin Zhen was like a funnel in the ocean, a whirlpool, absorbing the endless dark energy.
Within his Dantian, the vortex had already expanded to its maximum size.
Starlight flickered within it, and the most central point started to converge rapidly.
The Star Core was forming!
The total amount of Qi in his Dantian had already exceeded the critical point for a breakthrough. Now that he had broken through, it felt like it was going out of control.
Seven types of elemental energy shone on Lin Zhen's body, and the Qi in his Dantian rapidly evolved.
At this moment, all of the power formed a vast torrent.
The barrier that prevented Lin Zhen from entering the Star Realm was like a thin layer of film. It was instantly torn apart by the surging torrent!
Boom ~ ~ ~!!!
His mind became clear, and Lin Zhen felt as if his vision was magnified at this moment.
The Qi in his Dantian swelled twice before shrinking. The original Dantian Sea of Qi started to expand continuously, forming a starry sky.
The Qi in his Dantian quickly shrank and condensed, and the Star Core appeared!
Unlike the physical body of the Dark Star, the Dantian Star Core was a pure energy body.
After the birth of the Star Core, it started to expand rapidly!
Lin Zhen had experienced the birth of a Star Core in his previous life, but the strength at that time was far from what it was now. This time, the Star Core had just appeared, and it had already reached Level Three!
Moreover, the powerful dark energy between heaven and earth surged madly, causing Lin Zhen's realm to start to soar!
Level Four Star Core …
Level Five Star Core …
Level Six Star Core …
The Dark Star revolved wildly, absorbing a large amount of dark energy in the universe and supplying it to Lin Zhen's Dantian.
This huge amount of energy, in addition to Lin Zhen's previous accumulation, finally provided him with sufficient motivation.
From the moment he leveled up, he was at Level Three Star Core, and it soared all the way to Level Six Star Core!
In the end, Lin Zhen's Star Core stabilized at the peak of Level Six.
Within his Dantian Qi Sea, all the Dantian Qi had disappeared.
What replaced it was a vast and deep universe. At the center, there was a small planet that emitted faint starlight.
Don't underestimate this small planet. Lin Zhen's Dantian Qi was compressed ten times. After the Dantian Qi was converted into Star Power, his Star Power was ten times stronger than those who were not compressed!
Even if he was at Level Six Star Core, he was still the strongest Level Six Star Core!
Moreover, Lin Zhen's biggest trump card was the Dark Star. The Dark Star's Comet Stage Star Power, coupled with the strength of his main body, allowed Lin Zhen's Star Power to be comparable to the Satellite Stage!
That was Lin Zhen's true combat strength.
After the breakthrough, Lin Zhen's main body did not move. Instead, he continued to sit there, calming and stabilizing his realm. At the same time, he opened his Domain and cultivated the power of the Domain.
Although his main body was still cultivating, his clone had already entered the Dimensional Universe Space once again.
As his main body leveled up, Lin Zhen's clone's realm also soared all the way to Satellite Stage Six.
