Chapter 225: Devious White Fu, Advanced Knowledge in Hand [5k]

White Fu readily accepted the new task.

At this point, even if she wasn’t interested in the quest rewards, for her own safety, her best option was to collaborate with Xiphilis.

Seeing her stand with Xiphilis, the Dark Domain Bug Queen certainly wouldn’t let her go.

Rather than passive defense, it’s better to take the initiative!

Like this operation, although it borrowed the might of The Sworn One and the Celestial Eye Alliance, the outcome was quite satisfactory.

All she spent were a few stacks of Prayer Cards and the cost of renting a starship, yet she successfully eliminated four S+ grade and one Catastrophe Tier members of the Tower of Secrets, along with an Abyssal Stalker. This harvest was not to be underestimated.

“The kill reward is 51.2 million experience points. While this reward isn’t high, this operation also successfully seized four starships!”

If these four starships had to be purchased, they would easily cost over a million credits.

White Fu felt great and immediately inventoried the quest rewards.

First, the task to protect the Red Ring Star.

【You completed the urgent quest [Guard the Red Ring Star], with a perfect evaluation, earning a reward of 50 million experience points, 20 attribute points, and 100 Celestial Eye Alliance reputation.】

She unhesitantly added all 20 attribute points to Inspiration, bringing her base Inspiration to 1523 points, still 473 short of the 2000 required for Awakening.

This gap seemed large, but if she found Youlia more often, stacked the [Apostle’s Heart] to its sixth layer, and then leveled up her secondary profession [Dancer of the Waning Moon], she could quickly reach 2000 Inspiration.

It’s just like cheating.

The only things hindering White Fu’s Awakening were experience points and advanced knowledge.

Now that she had found a steady source of experience from exploiting players, the real challenge was acquiring advanced knowledge.

“With my performance in the Celestial Eye Alliance, I should have garnered further attention from the Genesis Consortium. After returning, I should try contacting Andreas to see if he can help me get advanced knowledge.”

Next was the hidden task to assist Scarlet Leaf in advancing to the Catastrophe Tier.

【You completed the hidden quest [Scarlet Dream], earning a reward of 20 million experience points and the Blessing of Scarlet.】

The so-called “Blessing of Scarlet” was a special item that, once used, allowed White Fu to summon a life-size replica of Scarlet Leaf’s true spirit.

Though it was a one-time use item, as a tool capable of summoning a Catastrophe Tier true spirit, it was incredibly valuable.

“This can be a lifesaver or a game-changer at critical moments.”

White Fu happily stored it in her inventory.

Soon after, she received another game prompt.

【You triggered the hidden quest [Malice from the Void].】

【Quest Description: The void disaster Scarlet Leaf experienced when young was no ordinary calamity; behind it lies a huge secret, which will eventually be revealed to the world.】

【Objective: Maintain Scarlet Leaf’s affinity above 60 until a new quest triggers.】

【Reward: 1 million experience points.】

After seeing the specific content of the quest, White Fu was surprised.

To her, this quest was too easy because Scarlet Leaf’s current affinity was already at 100, the same as Anya. Even if she inexplicably hit Scarlet Leaf a few times, it would be hard for the affinity to drop below 60.

But this type of quest was something she had never encountered before.

“The quest description directly mentions a huge secret behind the disaster, involving Catastrophe Tier superhumans. This quest seems beyond what I can handle now.”

White Fu frowned slightly.

Luckily, there was still some time before the quest triggered. She could use this time to strengthen herself.

In her view, the ways to enhance her strength at this stage were to level up her attributes, collect advanced knowledge to advance to the Catastrophe Tier, complete the mission to eliminate the Tower of Secrets and earn some gold, and increase plot exploration to prepare for official updates.

After this operation, her contribution to eliminating the Tower of Secrets increased from 17.2% to 28.1%, and the storyline exploration in the Initial Gateway Star Cluster rose to 4.3%, which was quite impressive.

“The flowers have bloomed, waiting for the fruit to ripen.”

White Fu closed the data panel and cheerfully headed towards Scarlet Leaf, who was slowly descending from the sky.

This battle had made her immensely wealthy.

Similarly, Scarlet Leaf had also unleashed a satisfying blow.

Years of pent-up emotions were finally released as she transformed into a firebird and slashed dozens of times at Sinturion, like lotus petals.

At this moment, Scarlet Leaf felt refreshed and full of fighting spirit. Her eyes seemed to be filled with affection as she looked at White Fu.

If not for the thousands of people watching and countless cameras recording, she would have pounced on White Fu the moment she landed.

“Congratulations,” White Fu said with a smile.

Tessia also offered her blessings, though less willingly compared to White Fu.

How could she be willing?

Even though she didn’t have direct conflicts with Anya, she and Scarlet Leaf had gone through life and death together.

Now that Scarlet Leaf had advanced to the Catastrophe Tier, did she still have a chance to steal from White Fu? Or to tie up Scarlet Leaf and humiliate White Fu in front of her?

One misstep, and everything else falls apart.

Tessia raised her head, her gaze filled with resentment as she watched White Fu’s back.

She couldn’t just sit idly by; otherwise, she might not even have the chance to drink White Fu’s soup.

The problem was she didn’t know how to get rid of the spider monster inside her or fully control that life-changing ability.

Perhaps…

Tessia’s gaze fell on Youlia, who had a sly smile on her face.

Perhaps she should actively seek cooperation with Youlia.

Everyone had their own thoughts.

Soon, the local journalists on Red Ring Star turned into running athletes, rushing toward White Fu.

“Holy Maiden! Holy Maiden!”

“Void War Princess! Void War Princess!”

They couldn’t wait to learn about the details of the battle against the Tower of Secrets.

This was big news.

Whether it was White Fu’s strategic brilliance or Scarlet Leaf’s sudden advancement to the Catastrophe Tier and her fierce attack on Sinturion, these were all sensational news stories.
