New Profession: Phenomenon Constructor, White Fox Becomes Planet Guardian Deity [6k]
Vik nodded solemnly upon receiving White Fox’s message.
Frolick’s death had bolstered Vik’s confidence in White Fox; although she couldn’t beat Mosen in armor before, he still believed that White Fox had enough trump cards to turn the tide.
Isn’t it just 30 seconds?
Even if it were three minutes, I’ll hold on until the end!
While Vik and Black Fox held off Mosen, White Fox quickly withdrew from the battlefield. She opened her attribute panel and began the process of changing her profession.
**[Successful Profession Change]**
**[You have unlocked the new profession [Phenomenon Constructor], current level Lv1, Agility +1, Constitution +2, Intelligence +2, Inspiration +4, Attribute Points +5]**
**[You have completed your third profession change, each point of Constitution grants +5 HP and +5 Spirit Energy]**
**[You have mastered the new skill [Advanced Prayer Card]]**
**[You have mastered the new skills [Intermediate Prayer Specialization], [Intermediate Prayer Enhancement], [Intermediate Card Crafting], [Spiritual Super Perception]]**
**[You have mastered the new skill [Phenomenon Construction]]**
The spiritual energy within her danced with joy, sending tingling currents through her body, giving her a sense of finally satisfying her hunger after a long period of starvation. Gazing at her smoother and more lustrous skin, she couldn’t help but pinch herself, feeling an increase in texture.
Crossing ranks not only strengthened her power but also elevated her life force!
White Fox opened the detailed explanation of her new profession.
The Phenomenon Constructor changed more than just the name and upgraded bonuses; it was a complete reconfiguration of spiritual energy professions.
Starting from Rank A, spiritual energy perception and usage would be massively enhanced, widening the gap between Rank B. This was evident in the new skills unlocked after her profession change.
**[Advanced Prayer Card]** meant she could upgrade prayer cards, indicating further enhancement of her strength and better ways to earn money from players. She could sell +1 cards to average players and +N cards to wealthy ones, extracting every possible resource.
**[Intermediate Prayer Specialization]** and **[Spiritual Super Perception]** were enhancements of her existing skills, breaking previous limits and allowing for continuous upgrades.
**[Phenomenon Construction]** was the core skill of the Phenomenon Constructor. The creations made by spiritual energy painters had time constraints, but this changed after unlocking **[Phenomenon Construction]**.
At Level 1, White Fox could construct a long-lasting spiritual energy construct. Mentioning constructs inevitably led to the talent unlocked during the profession change task—**[Apostle’s Will]**.
**[Apostle’s Will]** allowed her to designate a spiritual energy construct as her apostle. Apostles could be upgraded using spiritual energy crystals, rare spiritual energy items with wide applications available in the trading market, albeit at a high price.
**[Phenomenon Construction]** and **[Apostle’s Will]** were a perfect match. These skills could also be upgraded, such as **[Phenomenon Construction]**, which could improve its construction limit through experience and spiritual energy crystals.
White Fox selected **[Phenomenon Construction]**.
With her current knowledge, she couldn’t construct something akin to Black Fox’s true spirit, so she decided to focus on creating equipment.
“Energy Combat Suit!”
Her current combat suit was outdated, providing the perfect opportunity to get a new one.
Due to the urgency and lack of reference blueprints, White Fox created a simple black tight-fitting combat suit that covered her from toes to neck, with optional head protection modules. The footwear resembled high heels, capable of ejecting high-energy shockwave blades, while the hands were designed similarly.
This brand-new **[Spiritual Construct – Fu]** provided substantial defense without any attribute bonuses, but had two advantages.
One, being a spiritual construct, White Fox no longer needed to spend time changing clothes. With a thought, the clothes would appear or disappear, making it incredibly convenient. Issues like sweating in tight clothing or getting wet during experiments were no longer problems.
Two, it had low-altitude flight capabilities!
Flight was the key factor that made White Fox choose this outfit.
She continued to gain experience, rapidly leveling up the Phenomenon Constructor to Level 12, just 13 levels away from the maximum Level 25. Including the additional inspiration provided by the Star Seeker with each level-up, her base attributes saw massive growth.
**[Health Points]: 12042/12042**
**[Spirit Energy]: 13105/13105**
**[Qi]: 775/775**
**[Attributes]: Strength 94, Agility 147, Constitution 273, Intelligence 157, Spirit 135, Inspiration 523**
“The base inspiration has increased by nearly 40%, and with other bonuses, my strength has multiplied several times!”
White Fox beamed.
Before leveling up, she wasn’t truly Rank A, only comparable to weaker Rank A individuals. Now, even among many Rank A individuals, she stood out.
In this moment, she truly leaped out of the small stream of the Source Star and merged into the boundless Star Ocean!
The cost of her rapid strength growth was spending all the experience she had gained from the Source Star players.
Since she had maximized her pull before leaving the Source Star, and the players had cooperated diligently, even though the new version had been running for some time, the players were still struggling to recover from their depressed state.
There was no choice; they were constantly being exploited, and even iron men would turn into noodles under such pressure.
“I’ll wait until they recover a bit, then I’ll find a way to squeeze them dry. For now, let’s complete Vik’s mission!”
White Fox planned to seek other newbie planets after reaching the peak of Rank A, inviting more players to join her celebration.
Gathering the experience of numerous players, she aimed to break through to Rank S!
After experiencing a more perfect body, White Fox abruptly opened her eyes.
Transform!
With swift kicks, she sent her shoes flying, and before they landed, the black spiritual energy construct already covered her body.
This unusual transformation immediately caught the attention of the distant combatants.
This outfit… no, more accurately, this person, had clearly only passed a few dozen seconds, yet White Fox’s aura was completely different—distant, mysterious, like a deep vortex. How could the change be so drastic?
This was the power of the player panel!
White Fox’s gaze crossed the black soil, meeting Mosen’s in the center of the battlefield.
“Are you ready to die?”
It had been almost a minute since she left the battlefield. This time was enough to change many things, such as the power dynamics between them.
Mosen lifted his armored right arm, firing a blue energy cannon.
“Do you think you can beat me just by changing clothes?”
Laughable!
Each heavy shot landed where White Fox stood, creating large craters. Before the dust settled, White Fox suddenly burst through it, dodging each subsequent energy blast in mid-air perfectly.
“Flight?”
Mosen’s pupils constricted, suddenly feeling a bad premonition.
By the time he reacted, White Fox had already appeared in front of him. Under the enhancement of the dark scepter and higher inspiration, the spiritual explosion that could normally only reach two meters now blasted out over ten meters, enveloping both Mosen and his Black Crow-class armor.
Though the spiritual energy storm failed to tear apart the Black Crow-class armor, it injected powerful spiritual energy vortices inside, acting like a high-speed cutting machine.
**”-291″, “-302”, “-279″**
“What is happening to her strength?”
The tearing pain stimulated Mosen’s nerves, causing deep unease. If the armor couldn’t protect him, his strength wouldn’t even compare to Vik’s.
He quickly activated the armor’s burst mode, overloading the power system. Sparks erupted at the joints, providing immense strength as he finally steadied himself and escaped the spiritual explosion.
The ground was gouged out in deep furrows as the armor’s automatic cannons fired continuously, launching dozens of kinetic projectiles with tracking effects.
“I’ll help block…”
Vik prepared to jump out and block the shots.
“No, you and Black Fox watch over others, don’t let them escape!”
White Fox ignored the projectiles. The defensive capabilities of the spiritual construct were terrifying. The impact of the projectiles was largely absorbed by her super ability field and the construct’s shock waves, failing to even make a hole in her clothes.
“Bad news!”
Mosen was greatly alarmed, trying to distance himself from White Fox. However, with White Fox’s right hand pressing down, the almost tangible spiritual pressure descended heavily onto the armor’s head. Under the impact, sparks erupted from the armor’s leg joints, ultimately unable to withstand the pressure, causing the knees to buckle.
Let me show you how to break this rusty shell!
White Fox transformed into a phantom, her right leg, curved like a crossbow bolt, struck Mosen’s faceplate.
Boom!
With a single kick, the armor fell backward, losing all initiative. It could only counterattack through its cannons, barrels, and kinetic cutting devices.
However, White Fox wasn’t afraid of even the sudden counterattack. Her oscillating blade cut through the obstructing barrel with a snap, then she leaped high, landing heavily on the chest of the armor. Subsequently, the oscillating blade on her hand combined with the spiritual explosion’s impact, tearing apart the armor’s faceplate layer by layer.
Mosen struggled desperately, but the dimensional erosion explosion left him disoriented, unable to operate the armor.
Finally, the armor’s face was blown open.
“No—”
Mosen’s eyes widened in desperation, but he could do nothing, watching helplessly as White Fox raised her right fist.
Spiritual energy boosted, White Fox struck down hard, exploding Mosen’s head.
In less than a minute, she shattered the god-like image of Mosen in the slave traders’ eyes!
A true reversal!
Moser’s head exploded like a watermelon, killing him and robbing the remaining slave traders of their courage.
Without even standing up, they dropped their weapons, kneeling or sitting, trembling uncontrollably.
“Monster!”
“Mercy! I was coerced by Moser, I’m innocent.”
The slave traders who spread fear were terrified and wet themselves for the first time.
How cunning! This woman could tear apart the armor with her bare hands but deliberately pretended to be weak to lure them into a trap. This woman must be a demon!
Vik rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Holy crap!
He hadn’t hired a hunter; he had hired a giant Buddha!
Many powerful psychics existed in the Star Ocean, but those extremely powerful ones wouldn’t register as hunters. With White Fox’s current strength, she was already considered a backbone force on the universal commission platform.
Vik felt he had hit the jackpot but was also anxious. Why did White Fox agree to help him at a lower price, coveting the special genes on his body?
It seemed unnecessary. Given White Fox’s strength, there was no need to play games with these slave traders; she could simply capture him directly.
He was puzzled but increasingly saw White Fox as a towering figure in his eyes.
A justice colossus descends from the heavens!
White Fox stood up. She targeted Moser’s head partly because the Black Crow-class armor’s faceplate had lower durability than other parts, and partly because she liked this armor. Whether she sold it or used it herself later, it would be useful.
The spiritual construct was indeed a great thing. She punched through Moser’s head without getting her hands dirty. If it were ordinary gloves, she would have discarded them long ago.
“Rumor has it you came here because of the special genes in the Ulysses people. Tell me more about it.”
White Fox approached a slave trader.
That slave trader stared intently at her feet. Warning! The daggers hanging by her feet were no joke. He feared White Fox might crush his face with her foot, so he blurted out everything he knew.
An organization called Singularity, located in the chaotic star routes of the Sea Lion Galaxy System, issued a message in the black market seeking Ulysses people. Although Singularity’s strength didn’t compare to the Shiji Crystal Company, it was rumored to have unclear ties with multiple space pirate gangs.
Singularity offered these slave traders not only money but also a special **[Gene Optimization Potion]**, which Moser possessed.
White Fox entered her spaceship, finding the potion.
**[Dissociative Medicine (Purity 53.1%)]:** After use, provides +5 Spirit Energy, +3 Intelligence, with a chance to trigger a mental mutation.
**[Mental Mutation]:** Accumulate mental mutations to activate special talents, with a very low chance to unlock a new race, the **[Shadow Phantom]**.
White Fox’s spirits lifted.
Setting aside the attribute boosts, the prospect of progressing to a new race was highly appealing. Each advancement brought new attributes, and rare races came with matching talents.
“Accumulate mental mutation counts?”
White Fox remembered Vik’s template was mental mutation. No wonder Singularity sought Ulysses people; they likely wanted to research dissociative medicine.
Her guess was soon confirmed. After injecting the potion and confining the slave traders in her ship, Vik arrived with his **[Spiritual Scroll]**.
“This is the agreed reward.”
**[You completed the hidden quest [Vik’s Request], earning 2 million experience points, +60 affinity with Vik, and Vik’s Spiritual Scroll]**
Then, White Fox received a new prompt.
**[You triggered the hidden quest [Dissociative Medicine]]**
**[Quest Description: In assisting Vik, you discovered that Singularity is secretly researching dissociative medicine…]**
**[Objective: Obtain any sample of the dissociative medicine prototype]**
**[Reward: 3 million experience points, skill [Spiraling Demon Blade]]**
**[Accept/Reject]**
Of course, she accepted.
White Fox had come specifically for these quests.
She took the spiritual scroll from Vik. At this moment, Vik asked, “What are you planning to do with these slave traders? According to me, it would be best to kill them all; none of them are innocent.”
White Fox nodded. “You’re right, but killing them outright would be wasteful. We should make use of them.”
Utilize, how?
Vik was confused.
White Fox explained, “We can sell them as slaves and make some money.”
“?”
Vik gave a puzzled look.
Wait, selling slave traders as slaves? Isn’t that a bit hellish?
But upon reflection, he realized White Fox’s idea was feasible. Although these slave traders lacked special genes, they were all psychics, and selling them would surely yield significant profits, far more than accepting his commissions!
“Right, I remember the slave traders mentioning earlier that more will come.”
White Fox said, “I plan to catch them all and sell them together.”
I knew you’d say that!
Vik massaged his forehead.
He looked somewhat helpless, but his long-suppressed heart suddenly stirred. Why should only slave traders sell Ulysses people? Couldn’t Ulysses people sell these slave traders too?
It made no sense!
Damn it, it ignited a fire!
Before encountering White Fox, Vik was lost, but now he had a goal. He wanted to learn from her, find a way to rescue his captured kin, and then sell those who had taken them, using the money to improve Ulysses.
Honestly, Vik wanted to consider White Fox as a big sister. To succeed, one must follow such strong figures!
However, he worried White Fox wouldn’t accept him. Compared to those around her, he felt somewhat ordinary.
“Come on, let’s go back and tell your kin what happened here.”
White Fox and Vik returned victoriously.
White Fox’s appearance exuded extraordinary qualities, but when first met, no Ulysses person thought she could defeat the slave traders.
Yet, she did it.
She struck, the slave traders died, and the captured kin returned!
The Ulysses people who hadn’t extinguished their hopes despite hardships cheered loudly.
“Silver Moon, Silver Moon!”
Elderly people wept, nearly forgetting how long it had been since they experienced such excitement.
“Not surprised, Fu Fu always brings joy wherever she goes.”
Jiujiao praised White Fox’s new outfit and footwear.
Amidst the cheers, the city administrator felt a mix of emotions.
“Vik, honestly tell me, will more slave traders come?”
Vik nodded. “Yes, but Uncle, don’t worry. Silver Moon and I will handle it.”
The administrator looked troubled. “How can I be at ease? These slave traders met a gruesome end, and the next ones might be even more brutal. Then…”
“Forget it!” A nearby Ulysses person’s forehead bulged with veins. “I’ve had enough. Retreat, retreat, retreat. In the end, it’s still death. Rather than dying in cowardice, I’d rather follow Silver Moon and Vik and die in battle under the moonlight!”
This was a heartfelt roar, a release after long suppression.
A shout inspired more Ulysses people, their blood boiling. If not for fearing White Fox, they would have rushed to throw her into the sky.
“You…” The administrator’s face stiffened.
Vik sighed. “Uncle, you’re getting old.”
The administrator stood silently, unable to speak. Was he really old?
At this moment, a young Ulysses person asked Vik, “Vik, what should we do with the captured slave traders?”
Vik shared White Fox’s plan.
“What, sell them?”
Surrounding Ulysses people suspected they had heard wrong.
Damn, what kind of operation is this?
They exchanged glances, then erupted with the same idea as Vik—
Damn it, that’s exactly what we should do. They want to sell us, let’s see who sells whom!
In this moment, even the most hopeless Ulysses people suddenly came alive.
The Ulysses people had been suppressed for too long.
**[Brilliant recovery, Fu Fu!]**
**[Amazing, this beats hanging NPCs on streetlights last time!]**
As the surrounding players and Ulysses people celebrated, White Fox found Yulia.
She wasn’t afraid the slave traders wouldn’t come, but feared they might panic and spread the word, hindering her plans to capture more. Thus, Yulia needed to step in and control the situation.
“It’s simple, but you…” Yulia suddenly leaned close to White Fox’s chest, sniffing. “Your scent has changed, it smells better. And your clothes.”
“It’s made of spiritual energy, impressive, right?” White Fox smirked.
Yulia’s eyes lit up. “Does this mean you can take off your clothes anytime?”
White Fox replied, “Pretty much.”
Yulia pressed her hand to her chest, feeling a tickle.
She really wanted to grab White Fox and bring her to the laboratory to study the clothes right away!
Her plan failed because another slave trader ship landed outside the city that night.
These slave traders had no idea about White Fox or recent events. Laughing, they entered the city.
“We’re rich!”
The slave trader in front whistled.
Just a few steps in, White Fox, accompanied by players and Yulia, Black Fox, and Vik, attacked.
“What are you doing?”
“Counterattack, counter…”
“Don’t come any closer!”
White Fox charged into the crowd, like a comet striking Earth, unstoppable, causing the slave traders to scream.
Over 10 days, including Mosen, she defeated three groups of slave traders.
Looking at the four ultra-small ships and the six hundred plus slave traders in confinement, her eyes sparkled.
“We’re rich!”
Selling these slave traders would provide enough money to purchase advanced knowledge and blueprints, learning more skills and prayer cards.
Before that, she had to be cautious of some slave traders resorting to desperate measures and bombing her with their ships. Of course, she wasn’t afraid.
Fly a ship?
I’ll send fearless players to engage in a dogfight with you!
Even if she couldn’t win, she could run back to the Source Star, hiding until she reached the peak of Rank A, then return.
The Ulysses people were excited these days. Vik brought them their guiding light and guardian deity.
Long live Silver Moon!
The Ulysses people cheered and rejoiced, while other planet players watching the event felt restless.
**[Holy cow, Fu!]**
