"This matter hasn't been spread outside."

"Last time, we encountered three mysterious senators."

Severston said:

"The Astrologer, the Writer, and the Gourmet, their abilities are unpredictable and don't operate like our pathway systems but are rule manipulations based on certain fields."

"Moreover, they carry toxic blood." Caramel Snail said discontentedly, "These antagonists are too disgusting. Even if you manage to injure them, you're forced to conduct bloodline and Constitution tests, and if you're not a C3 Luca Type Alien, there's no way to pass."

"However, our Invincible True General seems to have passed the test."

Severston spoke, looking towards Leoz:

"How do you feel? Come to think of it, if corrupted by the Society, usually the account is directly deleted, right? How come you're unaffected?"

Upon hearing this, Leoz's heart was overjoyed: Severston really knows how to talk. He was just thinking about how to promote the Bloodline.

It's like someone delivering a pillow when you're sleepy.

"Well, this."

Leoz also pretended to be curious, as a lump of bright red tissue emerged at his fingertips:

"I possess an Omega Quality (24) Arcane Energy—Bloodline. The effect of this Arcane Energy is to forcibly pass all bloodline tests, but through my interpretation, I discovered it doesn't merely pass tests but also targets and consumes non-self bloodlines."

"Arcane Energy that devours others' bloodlines?" Severston touched his chin, checking the information. "The encyclopedia says Bloodline ranks among the worst Omega Arcane Energies, yet it's a Sequential Arcane Energy, I didn't expect it to have this effect."

"Think about it." Lanan understood, "Sequential Arcane Energy is the mandate of the world's operation, it can't possibly be useless."

Leoz showed them the ordinary Bloodline, not the evolved Hunter King. He intended to keep the latter's secret for a while longer.

Among players, words often lack discretion. Just sharing a chat record in a group chat can spread across the world in less than two hours.

Of course, this doesn't mean Leoz plans to always enjoy the benefits of the Hunter King alone. However, involving the mimicry of Earthling bloodline on him, if Lai Anding and the others knew, they'd probably feel apprehensive.

After all, as Severston said, Starry Abyss doesn't want to go all-out with Earthlings. Before they grow stronger, nothing said by Starry Abyss would be taken seriously.

So-called united front values are fought for, not just a matter of gaining sympathy when insignificant.

Moreover, among those present is the loyal Oshen — don't judge his flawless cooperation with him; ultimately, he's a dog of Starry Abyss.

It's currently not the time to turn hostile.

After accumulating more power for a while, the 2.0 version has little time. Within the timeline being rehearsed, the remaining versions revolve around Border Abyss and Layer Abyss, with Glina frequently moving back and forth in Starry Abyss.

Though players officially entering the third level of Starry Abyss should be a matter for version 14.0, thanks to his early initiatives, version 6.0 should suffice for activities within Lower Starry Abyss in the Void Realm.

After the evil god war in the next-next version ends, Void will usher in a ceasefire period with other narratives. Then it's several versions of player civil war.

However, now Oshen and Caramel Snail have been awakened; it's hard to say Starry Abyss would tolerate players warring amongst themselves, given the short supply of time and resources.

When the Hunter King is made public, Starry Abyss definitely wouldn't react — or rather, even if aware that he has the Hunter King to combat the secret, among the player-deities impersonators, the number obtaining Bloodline would reach unprecedented levels.

At that time, fearing to offend Earthlings?

That won't be up to Starry Abyss.

Others naturally don't know what Leoz is thinking; they simply regard the Bloodline Arcane Energy as a 'misplaced treasure' and begin discussing it.

"There are quite a few senators in the Secret Society, they're likely the ultimate antagonists of Starry Abyss."

Yutianxiao suggested:

"The White Obelisk on Azure Star seems to have rentals for this Arcane Energy, but unfortunately none were found."

"No worries, just go directly to Lower Starry Abyss to rent from Li Aozi." Caramel Snail said, "Haven't heard news about Li Aozi in ages, wonder what's it like down there."

Lanan nodded: "After all, players across a layer of cosmic can't contact each other — Starry Abyss, like an Abyss, the deeper you go, even communication becomes problematic, right?"

"It's better to have an Arcane Energy than not."

Severston patted the fog lamp at his waist:

"This thing is not just conspicuous, there's charging time, limited duration. Though it shields Ether's toxins... it needs deployment, not feasible in every encounter to spread a large fog."

"Bloodline does have a usage; it can share abilities with you guys."

Leoz spoke, raising his hand and slightly slicing open a wound on the back of it with a fingernail. Crimson blood immediately gushed forth, and a fresh, sweet aroma instantly permeated the entire space.

[Hint: Your companion 'Invincible True General #10752' has sent you an invitation to become Blood Kin: Would you like to join?]

[Blood Kin: The other party shares a portion of their bloodline talent bonuses, gaining a part of their bloodline inheritance. When fighting side-by-side, you will receive partial information sharing.]

[After becoming Blood Kin, you can choose to opt-out anytime, with every 200 natural days passing, receive an Attribute test. If you pass the test, favorability with the other party increases.]

[You can see the location of the Blood Kin on the map, no need to establish a teleportation coordinate, you can teleport to the other's vicinity.]

"Hmm, upon closer inspection, this effect seems good."

Yutianxiao looked surprised:

"Arcane Energy's potential truly needs to be tapped; though it can't compare to conventional Arcane Energy, you can't deny this thing is quite useful."

"Border Abyss's map is vast, knowing each other's locations is actually a good thing, makes it harder to get lost." Lanan also agreed.

"I agreed." Caramel Snail glanced around thinking it was fine, then directly confirmed, becoming Leoz's first Blood Kin.

"...Hmm."

Long Yuqiong was silent for a moment, then looked up and asked Leoz:

"I have a question."

"Go ahead."

"My occupation has high demands for bloodlines, will this Arcane Energy affect my Dragon Race bloodline?"

"No, at least from the information I understand, becoming Blood Kin clearly won't have an impact." Leoz confidently said, "You aren't truly possessing the Bloodline Arcane Energy, you're just having some traits tainted by my blood or simply enjoying the Arcane Energy's enhancement."

"I see." Long Yuqiong nodded: "Just a while ago during the battle with Glina, I remember you actively spread blood, and the suppression of my High Dragon Bloodline instantly vanished."

"If there was an impact, it should've happened then." Yutianxiao also confirmed: "Alright, hurry and join."

"I think so too." Long Yuqiong nodded, pressed confirm: "Collaborating with you is indeed a pleasure, haven't met an efficient, never foolish teammate like you in ages — frankly, I often feel you seem familiar, your action style resembles someone I remember..."

"Maybe we've met before."

Leoz smiled:

"I'm quite the prominent arena streamer famous for my thousand-person solo slaying. Perhaps on a day during pk you faced me, or unintentionally came across my videos and streams."

"Could be." Long Yuqiong nodded.

Lanan and Severston had no objections and joined one after another.

When it was Night Fighting Sword's turn, just as he was about to confirm, his expression suddenly changed, he said:

"Something's wrong."

"What's up?" The others looked at him in surprise.

"It's a bit complex, so I'll keep it simple." Night Fighting Sword spoke gravely: "It's just, remember the player who sparked disputes, directly leading to the port's lockdown?"

"Remember, what's the matter?" Caramel Snail, who frequents forums, knew about it.

"I've placed a Qi Energy imprint on Glina, able to monitor the scene around her; she's currently dining at a restaurant."

Night Fighting Sword's expression didn't look good:

"And that player seems to be heading our way."
