“If I use Divine Source Points to strengthen the concealment effect under the Self-Limitation State multiple times, can 1 deceive the perception of the Stellar Tribe?”

Lu Ming felt that this was a feasible idea.

After thinking for a moment, he addressed the others.

“I’m planning to enter seclusion for a period of time. We’ll talk after I come out of seclusion.”

No one had any objections.

A month later.

Sand and dust filled the desolate land.

As the dust formed a line, it quickly stopped in front of the east entrance 5 of Base 3.

Only when the dust settled could one see that the two basic Hunters were responsible for raising the dust.

“We’re here.”

A voice came from one of the Hunters, “This time returning to Base 3 for a debriefing, we have a one-week vacation. Ma Fei, take a break and relax. It’s a rare opportunity, so let’s put work aside for now.”

Ma Fei’s voice came from the other Hunter, “Got it, Brother Huan.”

Qi Huan and Ma Fei were personnel stationed at Observation Station 3081 of the Stellar Tribe in the Source Essence Layer. Their status and role were similar to those of Galuo and Rael, whom Lu Ming had encountered before.

These field personnel usually worked in pairs, monitoring all the movements in the Source Essence Layer.

Considering that the Source Essence Layer had not seen any external invasions or special situations for a very long time, this job had become monotonous, akin to exile.

The annual debriefing had become an excellent opportunity for a vacation.

Perhaps because she was thinking of her vacation experience last year, Qi Huan sighed with emotion.

“I wonder how the Starry Night Bar is doing, whether it’s still open. 1 remember there were quite a few fun things there last year. If there’s a chance, 1’11 take you there to experience it.”

Ma Fei did not speak much and only casually agreed. The two of them stopped at the east entrance 5 for a moment. Soon, the ground vibrated and a crack opened, revealing a dark and deep hole beneath.

“Let’s go.”

As Qi Huan spoke, she walked into the hole first, with Ma Fei following closely behind.

However, what the two of them did not know was that since a while ago, there was another figure standing between them, like a fellow traveler.

However, how could there be a fellow traveler in this two-person team?

This person was Lu Ming!

In this month’s time, Lu Ming did not hesitate to consume divine source points. He used divine source points to selectively strengthen the concealment effect of his physical self-limitation. Finally, in the past two days, he had pushed the self-limitation to a certain limit.

“From the looks of it, the effect seems quite good.”

Lu Ming, who stood behind Qi Huan and Ma Fei, was muttering to himself. His voice did not spread, naturally not attracting the attention of Qi Huan Ma Fei.

He followed closely behind Qi Huan and Ma Fei, following the two of them into the underground space.

It was a completely different world underground.

At first, the light was dim, but as they went deeper, light emerged from the wall.

The light was soft and seemed to come with security features. However, under Lu Ming’s newly enhanced Self-Limitation ability, these security facilities were completely useless.

Lu Ming could not help but sigh. These hundreds of thousands of Divine Source Points weren’t spent in vain.

As the three of them walked through the long passageway, the scene in front of them suddenly became clear.

In this place that seemed to be deep underground, there was a vast open space.

The open space was entirely made of metal, with various sophisticated instruments neatly arranged.

However, there were no living creatures moving within it. The overall scene resembled a fully automated logistics and warehouse facility.

Standing there, Lu Ming was indeed a little confused. On the other hand, Qi Huan and Ma Fei seemed to be very familiar with this place.

They entered a room, and through the transparent glass of the room, Lu Ming could see two shadows rising from the bodies of the Hunters. Soon, two bodies in normal state were transported over, and the two shadowy figures were injected into the new bodies.

Lu Ming roughly understood the logic of this step—the two Star Spirit individuals were changing their skins.

Hunters were considered combat weapons and it was not convenient for them to move around in this thing on a daily basis. Now that they had arrived at the safe area of Base 3, they naturally had to change into casual attire.

As the two of them finished changing and walked out of the changing room, Lu Ming could not help but raise an eyebrow.

This was because the appearance of the two of them in their new clothes was quite similar to the mainstream aesthetics of humans. The only differences were in height and some details of facial features, but the differences were not significant.

“That’s good news.”

This meant that even if Lu Ming revealed his true identity proactively, his true appearance would not differ much from the Star Spirit race’s mainstream “casual attire,” and it would not attract much attention.

Of course, the unique aesthetic taste of Qi Huan and Ma Fei could not be ruled out as a factor in their distinctive clothing…

But soon, as the three of them left this open space and passed through several security checks to the outside world, the last bit of worry in Lu Ming’s heart was dispelled.

In sight were brightly lit high-rise buildings.

Although they were underground, the lights made the place look like daylight.

Pedestrians passed by, each with different faces, bodies, and features, but they were not so strange that Lu Ming could not accept it.

Buildings of various styles stood everywhere, and countless flying and running vehicles traversed the intricate traffic grid in all directions.

Over here, it was like a future city of Cyberpunk, bustling and filled with a large amount of light pollution.

“That’s fine. These Star Spirit people really know how to enjoy themselves…”

Clearly, with the life forms of the Star Spirit Race, they did not need this kind of Cyberpunk City… The only purpose of this place was to add a touch of variety to the boring life of the Star Spirit Race.

It left Lu Ming a bit confused.

Standing at the street corner, Lu Ming looked left and right like a country bumpkin entering the city, unable to find a target direction for a while.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Ming decisively decided to follow the guidance of the spiritualized blood pattern first, see where it pointed, and then decide on the next steps.

The tallest building in Starry City.

The Issa Tower.

On the top floor, in the revolving restaurant.

Looking at Eternity, who was holding a wine glass and looking down at Starry City, Marcus felt his head spinning…

It had been more than a month since Eternity returned to Base 3 for debriefing. In such a long time, he had long completed his report. However, for some unknown reason, this kid simply stayed in Starry City and did not leave.

His daily schedule was just eating and drinking… To put it nicely, he said, “I haven’t been back for too long, and 1 want to see more of the scenery and changes in my hometown…”

Since he had already said so, Marcus really couldn’t easily drive him away after all, the work above was indeed not easy to handle.

But it had been a month…

Thinking of this, Marcus coughed lightly and said, “So you’re not going back to the surface, really? Nothing’s wrong?”

Eternity smiled faintly, “Nothing’s wrong. I have everything in the surface layer under control.”

“Then why did you let someone prematurely detonate the Dead Sea then?”

Marcus’s words had a hint of mockery, but Eternity, upon hearing it, didn’t get angry. He simply said, “Anyway, the next harvesting period is approaching soon. The early arrival of the harvesting period doesn’t have much impact on the overall situation.”

Without waiting for Marcus to speak again, Eternity continued, “And to be honest, I’m a bit tired of the work above. Either find someone to replace me, or just give me a bit more vacation. Once I’ve had enough fun in Starry City, I’ll leave on my own.”

Eternity had already made things so clear that Marcus did not feel comfortable saying anything else.

He invited Eternity to eat and drink until suddenly, Eternity’s gaze focused on a certain direction below.

The subtle change caught Marcus’s attention, but before Marcus could observe more closely, Eternity had already withdrawn its gaze.

Downing the contents of his cup in one gulp, Eternity smiled at Marcus.

“Oh, by the way, I suddenly remembered 1 have some other matters to attend to. Let’s call it a day for this meal.”

Without waiting for Marcus to say anything, Eternity stood up and walked out of the restaurant.

Marcus was left sitting at the dining table, squinting his eyes. Soon, he let out a heavy sigh.

“What’s this guy really up to?!”

Standing in the dimness at a street corner, watching the heavily guarded passage to the underground, Lu Ming unconsciously squinted his eyes.

Following the guidance of the Spiritualized Blood Pattern, Lu Ming found this place. However, the strict security made him hesitant to act recklessly.

Just as Lu Ming was hesitating and racking his brains for a solution, a female figure walked over from not far away and eventually stood at the entrance to the passageway.

She said something to the stationed guard and was allowed to enter the passageway.

Lu Ming remained motionless.

About three hours later, the female figure emerged from the passageway and walked straight to the parking lot in the distance. Seeing this, Lu Ming calmly followed behind..
