Age of Evolution#

Chapter 1116: Chapter 1119: Allocation, Arrival_1 Chapter 1116: Chapter 1119: Allocation, Arrival_1 Lin Zhen laughed lightly, “It’s not my first day as a Martial Artist, I understand certain rules.”

Su Shanna nodded in slight satisfaction.

In her heart, she felt a little grateful to Lin Zhen, but was displeased that he had saved the two crude men but ignored her, a beauty.

This caused her self-esteem to take a hit.

If Lin Zhen could be more discerning, she wouldn’t mind giving him some benefits and guiding this newcomer.

This guy was a Black Hole Beast, one of the top-tier beasts in the Star River, and yet despite being just a Lower God, he displayed impressive strength and combat talent.

If she could absorb him into her squad, their power would surely greatly improve in the future.

Su Shanna even believed that her squad might, one day, be capable of controlling a top-tier flying palace, traversing the depths of the Star Sea.

…

They could possibly gain a lot of rare weapons, and harvest an abundance of treasures.

Of course, the prerequisite for all this was letting Lin Zhen know who was in charge within the squad.

After a while, Vieri and Yibu emerged from below ground, their faces filled with excitement.

“Guess how many we found today?” Vieri asked.

Yibu could not wait to announce the answer, “Sixty-five!

We found sixty-five Boundary Stones!”

Su Shanna was also slightly excited; initially, she thought there were only fifty but there were more than she had expected.

“It’s time to distribute Su Shanna, you usually handle these things.”

Su Shanna nodded, planning on dividing the stones using the old rules.

In the past, Su Shanna, as the leader, took the biggest share, while Yibu and Vieri shared equally.

So among the sixty-five Boundary Stones found, Su Shanna would have taken twenty-five, leaving twenty each to the other two.

As she prepared to distribute them, Yibu commented, “Su Shanna, we have Lin Zhen now.

There’s one more person.”

Su Shanna flinched, then furrowed her brows.

“Lin Zhen didn’t directly contribute in collecting the Boundary Stones.

I’ll make a minor sacrifice and give him five, we each get the remaining twenty.”

Yibu and Vieri felt a little awkward.

Had Lin Zhen not saved them, the three of them might not have made it.

Although Lin Zhen did not participate in the search for Boundary Stones, five seemed excessively small.

“I’ll also give Lin Zhen five!”

“So will I, together he will have fifteen just like us.”

For the first time, Yibu and Vieri did not agree with Su Shanna’s arrangement and unilaterally decided to award a portion of their share to Lin Zhen.

Su Shanna was dissatisfied as her intention to suppress Lin Zhen was not fully realized.

Lin Zhen accepted the Boundary Stones from the three of them.

They were black-colored and roughly the size of an egg, containing the World Power.

These were indeed useful to expand the God Realm, but would not directly increase one’s power.

But since each stone was worth one thousand Points, Lin Zhen accepted them without any controversy.

As for Su Shanna’s intentions, Lin Zhen didn’t care.

After the Boundary Stones were distributed, Su Shanna brought out her shuttle.

The shuttle is a flying device in Star Sea, not classified as either a flight weapon or a flying palace.

It’s rather a tech product.

However, its quality is quite good, certainly better than Lin Zhen’s Liuli Ship.

Su Shanna could be the leader not only because Yibu and Vieri liked her but also because she owned this thing.

Lin Zhen had seen it before.

It needed 7.5 million Points for exchange, which he currently couldn’t afford.

The eight-meter-long shuttle had only four seats inside.

It felt similar to an automobile from Earth’s era.

The remaining space was all assigned to the fuel tank.

The fuel was Energy Blocks, a special product of the Star Sea which also needed Points for exchange.

The better the flying object, the better the Energy Block needed.

For example, the top-tier flying palace consumed many Energy Blocks every day that required many points.

If under enemy attack, the consumption of Energy Blocks increased drastically.

Su Shanna seated herself in the pilot’s seat, feeling a sense of authority.

“Get on,” she said to the other three, “We’re ready to go back.

You don’t need to pay for the Energy Block consumption this time; I’ll take care of it.”

Yibu and Vieri cheerfully climbed in.

Vieri sit in the front while Yibu and Lin Zhen in the back.

“Su Shanna, not only did we gain Boundary Stones this time, but we also killed three people from the Northern Alliance.

Lin Zhen just gave me some of their markings and weapons as symbols.

After we go back, we can publicize Lin’s achievements and gain some prestige.”

Su Shanna laughed a bit.

As much as killing the members of Northern Alliance seemed like good news, she was unhappy because she was not the one who did it.

Without any more conversations, the shuttle quickly set off and reached a hundred times the speed of sound, flying swiftly above the snowy continent.

Sitting in the backseat, Lin Zhen was thinking about obtaining better flight items.

Without them, exploring the Star Sea was impossible.

Furthermore, he considered his cultivation strategy.

There were several directions Lin Zhen could now pursue for cultivation.

He could temporarily halt the cultivation of his Soul Guardian.

Even if he had acquired the Cosmic Origin, it’s impossible for Lin Zhen to break through the twenty-fifth floor of Heavenly Platform in a short time.

For now, he didn’t need to think about cultivating a fourth clone.

His main body could now cultivate the life genes, and his clones could be used to comprehend the Overlapping Battle Skill taught by Guxing Diaosou.

Once he reached the gathering point, Lin Zhen would exchange his Points, focusing first on leveling up the Treasure-seeking Vine.

As he considered these matters, an hour soon passed, and the shuttle’s speed gradually began to slow.

They were located above a huge snow plain situated in the valley of continuous snowy mountains.

This was the gathering point of the Star River Giant Beast Alliance.

In the middle of the snow plain, Lin Zhen faintly made out the forms of several giant beasts lingering around.

Due to the large size of their transformed state, no house could contain them, forcing them to sit out in the open.

The shuttle landed, and the group debarked.

Two guards greeted them at the entrance of the large gathering point.

Clearly they were familiar with one another as one guard joked, “Miss Su Shanna, did you return empty-handed from your mission again?”

Before Yibu could respond, Su Shanna spoke to Lin Zhen first, “Lin Zhen, you should familiarize yourself with the environment.

I’ll contact you later, and we can have dinner together.”

Lin Zhen nodded, got up, and walked towards the interior of the not-so-busy gathering point.

He wanted to find the staff here and exchange his items directly.

From behind, it seemed that Su Shanna’s group started arguing over something.

Lin Zhen vaguely heard something about “killing members of the Northern Alliance”.

Lin Zhen sneered internally.

He could guess what Su Shanna was thinking, trying to credit the killing of Northern Alliance members to themselves.

“Killing a few enemies and not getting any point rewards for it, fighting over such a thing…

truly a ridiculous and vain woman!”

“With no real strength to back it up, she’s making herself a target by claiming her greatness everywhere.

This will only draw enemies’ attention and invite disaster.

What a shame for Yibu and Vieri to be with such a woman…”

Lin Zhen quickly put this matter aside and started observing the interior of the gathering point.
