A few hours later.
In a military base on the outskirts of Anming City.
In an underground cave that was tens of meters deep.
The walls of the cave were pitch-black, and there were various diamond-shaped sensors embedded in them from time to time. Here, they could sense changes in the air, energy, radiation, and other types of phenomena.
"This is the place." Lu Sheng led the three of them into the cave.
The automatic door behind them slowly closed.
Su Qin and the other two had changed into tight-fitting black protective suits. Not only were there protective functions, but there were also subtle sensors to record all the data when they used different abilities.
Lu Sheng was half-naked, and there were subtle metal strips of sensors on his back.
The red ribbon-shaped sensors looked like two red crystals embedded on his body.
"Because I broke through the Thousand Locking Dragon Technique, I created a set of fist techniques that are completely compatible with my body. However, I haven't been able to perfect it completely. Therefore, I hope to use more different power systems to help me perfect it completely, "Lu Sheng said confidently.
Su Qin and the others wore solemn expressions on their faces. If they were a little unwilling to bet on a small boss like Wang Mu before, then now, they were dead set on it.
Not for anything else, but for the fact that Dehn was forcefully saved by this small boss in front of them. A companion that they thought was dead was actually saved by this man in front of them on the spot.
Putting everything else aside, just for this kindness alone, they had already decided to bet everything on this man in front of them.
Su Qin's eyes were even more determined.
In this Battle of Stars scenario, the two parties that were really fighting were Blue Starlight and the Telekinesis Alliance. Wang Mu's Jiumingtang was actually just a small organization in the middle.
Initially, she only wanted to stay in Jiumingtang temporarily to see if she could get some benefits from Wang Mu.
However, now, after the incident with Dehn, she could not just abandon Wang Mu and join the other two major organizations just because of this favor alone.
Perhaps others would not care and just think that NPCs were not important, but she was different. She had always treated everyone in the story seriously and sincerely. Even NPCs were no exception.
"In any case, we're alone and weak. Even if we seek refuge with the other two opposing forces, we might not be taken seriously. Who knows, we might even be used as cannon fodder. He might as well settle it here. As long as we can assist Wang Mu, we can avoid the next few disasters. In the next battle, we might be able to put up a fight! "
Su Qin calmed down and exchanged glances with her two companions.
Dehn's resurrection had caused their hearts to be on a rollercoaster ride, but they had become even more mentally stable. After all, Dehn was the team's meat shield and had saved them countless times.
"Now, I hope that you will cooperate with me. After this is done, I will teach you the complete version of the Thousand-Lock Dragon Art," Lu Sheng said calmly.
"Alright, what do we need to do? Please tell us!" Su Qin took the lead and said in a clear voice.
"It's very simple. You all have different types of abilities. If you're willing, please demonstrate them to me."
Lu Sheng gestured for them to walk to the center.
The three of them exchanged glances.
"I'll go first." A tall and thin man walked out and said calmly. "My ability is a short-range sneak attack. It's very lethal and relies heavily on weapons and poison."
"Oh? Can I see your weapon? "Lu Sheng's eyes lit up. He liked this kind of expert who could sneak attack openly.
"Of course." The man generously took out a short sword from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng took it and looked at it carefully.
It was a very ordinary short sword. There was not even any poison on it. It could be found in any craft store.
"I practice poison arts. So there's no need for poison, "the man explained.
"If you don't mind, can you let me check your art?" Lu Sheng asked.
The man hesitated for a moment but immediately agreed.
After all, Wang Mu's martial arts realm was definitely much higher than his. The poison art that he chose actually did not have any special enhancement except for the strong poison.
Also, this poison art consumed a lot of energy. It would be best if he could get some pointers from Wang Mu.
"Let me demonstrate first." He stretched out his finger and his expression froze.
Traces of faint purple climbed up his arm and spread along his forearm to his palm. Then it extended straight to his index finger.
Then, he lightly wiped the short sword. The skin on his fingertip broke, and the blood stained the short sword with a purple line.
"This is one time poison, one time can last about ten hours. Also, my poison ability provides me with a slight acceleration of self-healing. "
"How exactly do you practice it?"
Lu Sheng began to carefully discuss with the man.
A moment later, the man walked to the side with a face full of joy, digesting the improved art he got from Lu Sheng.
The Lord System reminded him that his Snow Blow Poison Art had been successfully improved. The consumption was reduced to one-third of the original art, and its power was increased by 30%. It could be renamed.
Because he didn't have any side quest to use, he only exchanged for this low-level F-level side quest poison art.
F-level side quest was the lowest level of side quest. One could only imagine the level of this cultivation technique.
Now, the improved Snow Blow Poison Art was at least an E-level or even D-level art.
Regardless of whether it was his ability to continue fighting or his combat prowess, he was much stronger than before.
After the man was another woman, and then Su Qin.
The three of them exchanged and demonstrated with him.
The three of them had mastered three completely different types of abilities.
The first man was an assassin, and the second woman was a mental link arcanist. The third was Su Qin, a dual-blade warrior.
What was more helpful to Lu Sheng was that Su Qin's dual-blade warrior was actually a Night Elf. It could borrow starlight energy for a short period of time and unleash its power.
He had absorbed the power of the stars in the Primeval World, but it was completely different from the starlight here.
The starlight of the Night Elves referred to light energy.
Through a special secret method, they could continuously absorb the ubiquitous starlight and store it so that they could use it at any time when needed.
Lu Sheng was very interested in this way of storing starlight. This pure method of converting light energy gave him a lot of inspiration.
And how the Lord God could completely display the power systems of different worlds also gave him a lot of inspiration.
Su Qin and the other two also gained a lot of benefits.
Some of their arts were improved, and some of their realms were improved.
As for Lu Sheng, he had a deeper understanding of the next level, the Sixth Anima of the brain.
In particular, the ability of the woman with the mental ability gave him a deeper understanding of the operation of this ability.
After leaving the base, Lu Sheng quickly announced that he would go into seclusion.
Su Qin and the others returned to their respective residences and lived in seclusion. They digested what they had gained.
A few days later …
In the Capella Hotel, not far from Jiumingtang.
Su Qin sat in front of the window of the suite, holding a can of beer in her hand and casually taking a sip. She looked very relaxed.
Dehn and another woman with the mental ability were sitting on the sofa in the living room of her room. One was playing with her phone, and the other was flipping through an old book in boredom.
"I've just been notified. The other two teams have entered, "Su Qin said calmly.
"Which two?" Dehn looked up and asked.
This tall and strong middle-aged man had always been the big brother of the team. His status was second only to Su Qin. His prestige was the same.
"Angel and Demon Spirit …" Su Qin said these two words with a blank face.
"Huh???!"
Both Dehn and Su Qin's expressions changed, and they almost jumped up from the sofa.
"Forget about the European Cross Sword Team, now the Angel and Demon Spirit are also here. What should we do??!"
Dehn's face, which was already pale due to excessive blood loss, became even paler.
"According to the Lord God's arrangement." Su Qin's expression didn't look good either. "We are not qualified to fight against the Angel and Demon Spirit. We should have just accidentally intruded into their battle. The Angel and Demon Spirit Team will have a small team battle every once in a while. They change members very frequently. "
"Maybe we have become cannon fodder for the two teams to select members?" The woman with the mental ability couldn't help but guess.
"I can't rule out this possibility." Su Qin nodded. "As for them, according to the convention of the Lord God, they are definitely not ordinary people. They should be directly assigned to the two opposing forces. "
"Shadi said that he has important information outside." The woman with the mental ability spoke again.
"Link him." Su Qin nodded.
Soon, a somewhat hoarse man's voice came into their ears.
"This time, there are a total of five teams in addition to us. In this world of the Battle of the Stars, the most important person is the protagonist, Silverdreddy. Here, he will obtain the greatest capital to return to his hometown for revenge — the power of the Bewildering Illusion. So … "
"So, there must be someone beside Silverdreddy! The Cross Sword Team is likely to join these two factions like the Angel and Demon Spirit Team. Let's not talk about the confrontation first. If we can complete the main mission, that will be the biggest reward. "Su Qin speculated.
"Wait!" The male assassin on the other end of the link suddenly paused. "I received a small note. It's the Angel Team inviting everyone to meet! Captain, do you agree? "
Su Qin pondered for a moment.
"In what form?"
"The Lord God's projection signed a confidentiality agreement. The Angel Team will be responsible for the consumption of potential points." The assassin quickly replied.
Su Qin's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.
She was not only the target of the team, but also the brains of the team. Now that she heard the message from the assassin, her brain turned a little, and she suddenly thought of a terrible possibility.
"We … may have been exposed …" Su Qin's tone was low.
The rest of the team's expressions also darkened.
…
…
The matter with Su Qin and the other Lord God Team was temporarily put aside by Lu Sheng.
After learning that there would be a Battle of the Stars a year later, he finally made time to properly sort out Wang Mu's family relations.
Regardless of whether he could solve this big problem when the time came, it was best to first find a way out for the people around him.
First, it was Wang Mu's biological parents.
No matter what kind of impression Wang Mu had of the other party, it was all highly subjective. Lu Sheng intended to personally contact them to see who was in the wrong in the first place, to determine whether he should make a way for Wang Mu's parents.
Otherwise, what if it was Wang Mu himself who was too emotional? Blaming others wrongly. That would be too much of a pity.
